MCC, Mobile country code (octet 2 and 3)

The MCC field is coded as in ITU-T Rec. E212, Annex A.

If the LAI is deleted the MCC and MNC shall take the value from the deleted LAI.

In abnormal cases, the MCC stored in the mobile station can contain elements not in the set {0, 1 … 9}. In such cases the mobile station should transmit the stored values using full hexadecimal encoding. When receiving such an MCC, the network shall treat the LAI as deleted.

MNC, Mobile network code (octet 3 bits 5 to 8, octet 4)

The coding of this field is the responsibility of each administration but BCD coding shall be used. The MNC shall consist of 2 or 3 digits. For PCS 1900 for NA, Federal regulation mandates that a 3-digit MNC shall be used. However a network operator may decide to use only two digits in the MNC in the LAI over the radio interface. In this case, bits 5 to 8 of octet 3 shall be coded as "1111". Mobile equipment shall accept LAI coded in such a way.

NOTE 1: In earlier versions of this protocol, the possibility to use a one digit MNC in LAI was provided on the radio interface. However as this was not used this possibility has been deleted.

NOTE 2: In earlier versions of this protocol, bits 5 to 8 of octet 3 were coded as "1111". Mobile equipment compliant with these earlier versions of the protocol may be unable to understand the 3-digit MNC format of the LAI, and therefore unable to register on a network broadcasting the LAI in this format.

In abnormal cases, the MNC stored in the mobile station can have:

– digit 1 or 2 not in the set {0, 1 … 9}, or

– digit 3 not in the set {0, 1 … 9, F} hex.

In such cases the mobile station shall transmit the stored values using full hexadecimal encoding. When receiving such an MNC, the network shall treat the LAI as deleted.

The same handling shall apply for the network, if a 3-digit MNC is sent by the mobile station to a network using only a 2-digit MNC.

LAC, Location area code (octet 5 and 6)

In the LAC field bit 8 of octet 5 is the most significant bit and bit 1 of octet 6 the least significant bit.

The coding of the location area code is the responsibility of each administration except that two values are used to mark the LAC, and hence the LAI, as deleted. Coding using full hexadecimal representation may be used. The location area code consists of 2 octets.

If a LAI has to be deleted then all bits of the location area code shall be set to one with the exception of the least significant bit which shall be set to zero. If a SIM/USIM is inserted in a Mobile Equipment with the location area code containing all zeros, then the Mobile Equipment shall recognise this LAC as part of a deleted LAI
