6 Codec List for the Call Control Protocol

26.1033GPPRelease 17Speech codec list for GSM and UMTSTS

For call control on the air interface the Codec Lists need to be specified for each radio access technology separately, because it can not be expected that an UE supports the same Codec Types in different radio access technologies.

3GPP TS 24.008 [9] defines the call control signalling and how to use the "Supported Codec List Information Element" (IE). It contains Codec Lists (in form of Codec Bitmaps) for each supported radio access technology (identified by a SysID).

The coding of this is IE is given here. It is also used for TFO in 3GPP TS 28.062 [7].

6.1 System Identifiers for GSM and UMTS

The system identifiers for the radio access technologies supported by this specification are:

SysID for GSM: 0x0000.0000 (bit 8 .. bit 1)

SysID for UMTS: 0x0000.0100 (bit 8 .. bit 1)

These values are selected in accordance with [7] (3GPP TS 28.062).

6.2 Codec Bitmap

The Codec Types are coded in the first and second octet of the Codec List Bitmap as follows:

A Codec Type is supported, if the corresponding bit is set to "1". All reserved bits shall be set to "0".

6.3 Selected Codec Type

The Selected Codec Type in a BICC-based OoBTC negotiation is coded as shown in Table 6.3-1. The same coding is used also in 3GPP TS 28.062 [7].

NOTE: UMTS_EVS codec type is not supported in TS 28.062 [7].
