-
A.
Radio Network Controller (RNC)
The Radio Network Controller (RNC) is a key 3G mobile network node that manages radio resources and controls multiple base stations within the UMTS radio access network.
-
B.
Serving GPRS Support Node
The Serving GPRS Support Node (SGSN) is a core network component in 2G/3G mobile systems responsible for delivering data packets to and from mobile devices and managing their mobility and session states.
-
C.
UMTS core network
The UMTS core network is the central backbone of 3G mobile systems, handling key functions such as call control, mobility management, and data routing between mobile users and external networks.
-
D.
RLC (Radio Link Control) protocol for UMTS
The RLC (Radio Link Control) protocol for UMTS is a Layer 2 protocol that provides segmentation, reassembly, error correction, and in-sequence delivery of data between the user equipment and the radio access network in 3G systems.
-
E.
OsmoGGSN
OsmoGGSN is an open-source GPRS Gateway Support Node implementation from the Osmocom project used to provide packet data connectivity in mobile networks.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
