1  Scopep. 16

This document specifies the functional architecture, procedures and information flows needed to support the Mission Critical Data (MCData) services. MCData is a suite of services which utilizes the common functional architecture defined in TS 23.280 to support MC services over LTE including the common services core.
MCData services suite consists of the following sub-services:
  • short data service (SDS);
  • file distribution (FD);
  • data streaming (DS); and
  • IP connectivity.
MCData features include:
  • conversation management;
  • transmission and reception control;
  • communication release; and
  • enhanced status.
The corresponding service requirements are defined in TS 22.282 and TS 22.280.
The present document is applicable primarily to MCData service using E-UTRAN access based on the EPC architecture defined in TS 23.401. Certain application functions of the MCData service could also be supported via non-3GPP access networks but no additional functionality is specified to support non-3GPP access.
The MCData service can be used for public safety applications and also for general commercial applications e.g. utility companies and railways.

Conversation identifier:
A universally unique identifier that identifies a series of related MCData transactions.
Data stream:
A sequence of data that is agnostic to any underlying media (e.g. audio, video, telemetry data), on which processing of data (e.g. semantic, syntactic, save or filter operation) can begin before all the content is received.
FD disposition:
is one of "not downloaded" and "download completed".
Folder Identifier:
A unique identifier that identifies a folder in the MCData message store
IP Data:
Structured or unstructured payload that is transparent to the MCData transport service.
MCData client:
An instance of an MC service client that provides the client application function for the MCData service.

4  Introductionp. 19

The MCData service suite provides a set of generic capabilities and specific services to enable one-to-one and group data communications between MCData users.
The MCData architecture utilises the common functional architecture to support mission critical services over LTE defined in TS 23.280 and aspects of the IMS architecture defined in TS 23.228, the Proximity-based Services (ProSe) architecture defined in TS 23.303, the Group Communication System Enablers for LTE (GCSE_LTE) architecture defined in TS 23.468 defining MBMS support via the MB2 interface, the MBMS User Service architecture defined in TS 26.348, the Security of the Mission Critical Service in TS 33.180 and the PS-PS access transfer procedures defined in TS 23.237 to enable support of the MCData service.
The MCData UE primarily obtains access to the MCData service via E-UTRAN, using the EPS architecture defined in TS 23.401. Certain application functions of MCData service can be accessed using MCData UEs via non-3GPP access networks.
The MCData system provides the function to support interworking with LMR systems defined in TS 23.283.
