The Base Station System (BSS) contains two functional entities: the
Base Station Controller (BSC) and the Base Transceiver Station (BTS).
The BSC handles radio-related functions, such as handover,
management of the radio network resources, and cell conguration data.
It also controls radio frequency power levels in RBSs and MSs.
The BTS is a network component which serves one cell and is
controlled by the BSC. The BTS contains a number of transceivers. It
consists of the radio transceivers and all the digital signal processing
equipment. RBS 2000 contains equipment for 1 - 3 BTSs.
