<h1>Nokia Base Station</h1>

<p>The base station (BTS) is connected to the base station
controller (BSC) via the Abis interface. The BTS also connects the mobile
subscriber's mobile station (MS) to the GSM network through the Radio interface
and performs the radio functions of the BSS.</p>


<p>Nokia offers a great variety of base station types for
both indoor and outdoor use in different climatic or other environmental conditions.
Micro base station solutions for capacity enhancement and coverage extension
are also available.</p>


<p>All Nokia BTSs are fully controllable from Nokia NetAct
and the BSC site with a remote connection. The required software can be downloaded
either from the BSC or from Nokia NetAct through the BSC. Man-Machine Interface
(MMI) or Site Wizard enables commissioning, fast fault localisation, and efficient
testing.</p>
