Message words have variable sub-fields that are set to convey various information (such as dialed numbers, mobile phone ID, commands, requests, channel assignments etc.). Here are the codes used in Message Word subfields during data transmissions. ============================================================================ Mobile Station Automatic Attenuation Levels Mobile Attenuation Code (MAC) Power Classifications MAC I II III Nominal ERP Power Outputs --- --- --- --- Class ERP Level 000 6 2 -2 --------- ---- -------- 001 2 2 -2 Class I 4W ( 6 dBW) 010 -2 -2 -2 Class II 1.6W ( 2 dBW) 011 -6 -6 -6 Class III 0.6W (-2 dBW) 100 -10 -10 -10 101 -14 -14 -14 110 -18 -18 -18 111 -22 -22 -22 (Attenuation in dBW) ========================================================= Station Class Mark (SCM) SCM Station Class, Transmission ---- ---------------------------- xx00 Class I xx01 Class II xx10 Class III 00xx Continuous Transmissions 01xx Discontinuous Transmissions (for example 0010 means Class I Continuous Transmissions) ========================================================= Digital Color Code (DCC) Received Coded -------- ------- 00 0000000 01 0011111 10 1100011 11 1111100 ======================================= SAT Color Code (Supervisory Audio Tone) Code Frequency ---- --------- 00 5970 Hz 01 6000 Hz 10 6030 Hz 11 (not a channel designation) ==================================== Digit Code (for dialed numbers etc.) Digit Code ----- ---- 1 0001 2 0010 3 0011 4 0100 5 0101 6 0110 7 0111 8 1000 9 1001 0 1010 (zero is encoded as a binary ten) * 1011 # 1100 Null 0000 (when no digit present) =================================== Order and Qualification Codes Order Qual Function ----- --- --------------------- 00000 000 page (or origination) 00001 000 alert 00011 000 release 00100 000 reorder 00110 000 stop alert 00111 000 audit 01000 000 send called-address 01001 000 intercept 01010 000 maintenance 01011 000 change to power level 0 01011 001 change to power level 1 01011 010 change to power level 2 01011 011 change to power level 3 01011 100 change to power level 4 01011 101 change to power level 5 01011 110 change to power level 6 01011 111 change to power level 7 01100 000 directed retry - not last try 01100 001 directed retry - last try 01101 000 non-autonomous registration - do not make whereabouts known 01101 001 non-autonomous registration - make whereabouts known 01101 010 autonomous registration - do not make whereabouts known 01101 011 autonomous registration - make whereabouts known 11110 000 local control (All other codes are reserved) ============================================================== Overhead Message Type Code Order ---- ------------------ 000 registration ID 001 control-filler 010 (reserved) 011 (reserved) 100 global action 101 (reserved) 110 word 1 of system parameter message 111 word 2 of system parameter message ======================================= Global Action Message Types Code Action Type ---- ----------- 0000 (reserved) 0001 rescan paging channels 0010 registration increment 0011 (reserved) 0010 (reserved) 0011 (reserved) 0100 (reserved) 0101 (reserved) 0110 new access channel set 0111 (reserved) 1000 overload control 1001 access type parameters 1010 access attempt parameters 1011 (reserved) 1100 (reserved) 1101 (reserved) 1110 local control 1 1111 local control 2 ==================================================================== Restricted Central Office Codes.

The "polynomial" that generates the code is given as: 12 10 8 5 4 3 0 gB(X)= X + X + X + X + X + X + X Taking this verbatim in the usual way (superscripts meaning exponentiation) gives ridiculous results that would be difficult to compute at the 10 Kb/s data rate required by the Cellular Data Protocol. It makes more sense to interpret this notation to indicate that the bits of the message word are summed (in binary) in 12, 10, 8, 5, 4, and 3 bit bytes with 1 added. That is: the word is broken up into a bunch of sub-bytes of a certain length, these are added together, the original word is again broken into sub-bytes of the next length and those are summed ... until all listed lengths have been summed. THEN all of those sums are summed and 1 is added. The low order 12 bits of the results of this procedure are used as the parity bits. THIS IS ALMOST PURE SPECULATION. Confirmation is currently being sought at university engineering libraries, or by examining the parity bits in published examples or intercepted cellular messages. The Parity bits are irrelevant to hacking Cellular ID codes however, because message words are repeated many times in each message block, and the ID fields (MIN1, MIN2, and SID) can simply be lifted from the most frequent (and most likely error-free) message words in the block. HOWEVER: If BCH coding transforms the message bits as well as the Parity bits then the proper BCH coding algorithm becomes critical. If all else fails, diassembling the ROM firmware from a Cellular Phone should be conclusive.
