Figure B.13. Baseline Architecture for Home NodeB Solutions for UMTS-HSPA (based on 3GPP<br />

TS 23.830).<br />

The Home NodeB (HNB) in the figure provides the RAN connectivity using the Iuh interface, and supports<br />

the NodeB and most of the RNC functions from the standard UMTS-HSPA architecture. Also, the HNB<br />

supports authentication, Home NodeB Gateway (HNB-GW) discovery, HNB registration and UE<br />

registration over Iuh. The HNB GW serves the purpose of an RNC presenting itself to the CN as a<br />

concentrator of HNB connections (i.e. the HNB-GW provides a concentration function for the control and<br />

user planes). It should be noted that although it is not shown in Figure B.13, a Security Gateway (SeGW)<br />

is a mandatory logical function which may be implemented either as a separate physical entity or<br />

integrated into the HNB-GW. The SeGW secures the communication from/to the HNB. The Closed<br />

Subscriber Group List Server (CSG List Srv) is an optional function allowing the network to update the<br />

allowed CSG lists (i.e. the users allowed access on each Home NodeB) on CSG-capable UEs.<br />

For LTE, there are three architecture variants supported in 3GPP for Home eNodeBs which are shown in<br />

Figures B.15 through B.17, based on the logical architecture in Figure B.14.<br />
