Information on Base Station Controller

The BSC provides the control functions and physical links between the mobile services switching center (MSC) and the base transceiver station (BTS). It provides functions such as handover, cell configuration data and control of radio frequency (RF) power levels in base transceiver stations. A number of base station controllers (BSCs) are served by a single mobile services switching center (MSC).
