The UMTS network architecture is partly based on existing 2G network components and some new 3G network components. It inherits the basic functional elements from the GSM architecture on the core network (CN) side . The CN provides circuit switched (CS) functions as well as packet switched (PS) functions.
Read moreWhat are the entities of UMTS network?
UMTS specifies a complete network system, which includes the radio access network (UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access Network, or UTRAN), the core network (Mobile Application Part, or MAP) and the authentication of users via SIM (subscriber identity module) cards.

UMTS specifies a complete network system, which includes the radio access network (UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access Network, or UTRAN), the core network (Mobile Application Part, or MAP) and the authentication of users via SIM (subscriber identity module) cards.
Read moreWhat are the parts of a UMTS network architecture?
The UMTS network is divided into two logical networks, i.e., core network (CN) and radio access network (RAN) . The CN and RAN are connected via an open interface. The network architecture is continuously evolving to enable a smooth transition from 2G to 3G, leveraging existing and new technologies.
