USSD Call Flows

This document outlines the signaling flows for mobile originated and mobile terminated USSD/SCI interactions between an MS, MSC/VLR, HLR, and SCP. For mobile originated USSD, the document shows signaling between the MS and SCP involving MAP and CAP messages routed through the MSC/VLR and HLR. For mobile terminated USSD, the document shows signaling initiated by the SCP involving CAP and MAP messages routed between the SCP, HLR, and MSC/VLR to the MS. Remarks are provided noting CAMEL message transport and potential for USSD responses to trigger additional requests.

depends on the implemented service.
