Types of GSM service

The ETSI Standards define the telecommunication services in the same way as ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network) does. Different types of services are distinguished: bearer services, tele-services and supplementary services.

Bearer services:

Bearer services are telecommunication services providing the capability of transmission of signals between access points (called user-network interfaces in ISDN). The bearer services describe what the network can offer (e.g. speech, data and fax).

Teleservices:

Teleservices are telecommunication services including terminal equipment functions, that provide communication between users according to protocols established by agreement between network operators. The teleservices are user end-to-end services (e.g. emergency call and short message service).

Supplementary services:

Supplementary Services modify or supplement a basic telecommunication service. Consequently, they cannot be offered to a customer as a stand-alone service. They must be offered together or in association with a basic telecommunication service. The same supplementary service may be applicable to a number of telecommunication services. Most supplementary services are directly inherited from a fixed network, with minor modifications (when needed) to

adapt to mobility. Examples of supplementary services are calling line identification and call waiting.
