name: BICC
full_form: Bearer Independent Call Control
context: a) This measurement provides the number of BICC messages received on the Nc interface during the measurement period. b) CC. c) On receipt of BICC message on Nc interface. d) A single integer value. e) EQPT.NbrNcMsgReceived. f) NcLink. g) Valid for circuit switched traffic. h) GSM/UMTS.
description: Bearer Independent Call Control (BICC) is a protocol used in telecommunications to control circuit-switched calls independently of the bearer technology used. It enables the separation of call control from the underlying transport network, allowing for more flexibility and efficiency in managing voice traffic.
explanation: The text explicitly states that BICC is a protocol used for controlling calls.  It describes its function of separating call control from the transport network, a key characteristic of protocols.
