Concentration of LAPD signals
The purpose of LAPD concentration is to reduce the number of required
physical links between the BSC and the BTS. This is done by allowing
a number of TRXs to use the same physical transmission link for LAPD
signalling between the BSC and the BTS.
The function concentrates LAPD messages from a number of TRXs
onto one physical link to the BSC (uplink). It also deconcentrates
LAPD messages received on one physical link from the BSC
(downlink), sending them forward to their destinations.

Messages are sent forward to their destinations without adding, deleting
or changing information.
The concentrator is configured by A-bis commands as described in
chapter "Functionality Administration".
For each concentrated signalling channel there is a transmit queue for
uplink messages to the BSC. The queue length is supervised as
described in "Self Test and Supervision". If a new message is received
