Today the GSM network operators are trying to distinguish themselves from the competition by offering new operator specific services. Some of these services shall be realized by the dialogue oriented Unstructured Supplementary Service Data (USSD) mechanism. In this work the impact of the introduction of a USSD based operator specific service, i.e., the interactive Unified Mail Service (UMS), on the existing GSM basic services, e.g., speech or circuit switched data, with the focus on the air interface between mobile stations and base station is investigated. In case new services are introduced, which occupy the signaling channels for a long time, there can occur so much shortage of the base station's resources that the provision of other service (on traffic channels) may be affected. The simulation based approach chosen in this work, allows the examination on how disturbance on the air interface affects the setup and dialogue times, as well as the channel holding times of the dedicated channels.
