Offset to ives temporary modification in C2 within PT time 0 / range 0-7 (0=60dB & 7=infinite) /
SET GCELLIDLEAD
PT (Cell_Reselect_Penality_Time) :
Used to ensure safety and vailidity of reselcetion and avoid frequent reselection 0 / Range 0-
30,31 corresponds to 20-620s, 31 reserved to change the effect of CRO (CRO -CRO) : SET
GCELLIDLEAD
PI (Cell_Reselect Parameters_Indication) :
Indicates if CRO, TO and PT are used Yes (if No then C2=C1) / SET GCELLIDLEBASIC
CRH (Cell_Reselect_Hysteresis) :
User for reselection between two location areas 6 / range 0-14 (2dB step) / SET GCELLIDLEBASIC
3. Location Update :
a) Normal Location Update : when MS move from one LA to another LA. LA change happens
with two following procedures :
o Cell reselection : after reselection between two different LA, the new LAC is
broadcasted in BCCH. Then, LU triggeredautomatically and immediately after MS
found that new LAC is different from stored one.
o Handover : in dedicated mode and handover happens from LA to another. LU will
not be triggered immediately unitil current call is released then MS is back to Idle
Mode and trigger LU.
b) Periodic Location Update : triggered by expiracy of T3212 timer. Periodic LU is designed
to avoid MSC delivering paging for MS that are no longer powered on or out of LAC
known by MSC.
c) Attach : triggered by MS when attachement to network. When MS is power on, it reads
the parameters ATT and LAC from broadcasted system information.
o If ATT=Yes : regardless LAC is identical or not, MS will attach to network and the
ntwork will modify relevent flag of the MS to « power on » state. When MS is
power off, the detachement process will be triggered to change MS state to
« power off ».
o If ATT=No : MS will compare boradcasted LAC will stored LAC. If diffrerent, MS
will trigger LU, otherwise, no action is triggered. No detachement process is
triggered when MS is power off.
T3212 :
Timer for periodic location update 20 (x6min) / range 0-255 (6min step) / SET GCELLIDLEBASIC
NB : MSC IMSI_Detach_Timer (Implicit Detach Timer) should be at least 2 times bigger than T3212,
the recommanded value is 3 times bigger (if MSC timer expires without any LU, MSC will make MS in
detach state No paging for this MS and MSC replies directly to caller that MS is out of service)
ATT (Attach_Detach_Allowed) :
Whether to inform MSC when MS is power on/off in order to change its flag to Attach/Detach state
Yes / SET GCELLIDLEBASIC
NB : ATT value (Yes/No) must be the same for all the cell in the same LAC, else, some MS will be
considered in Detach state even if they are power on in a cell with ATT=No because they have been
power off in another cell with ATT=Yes.
4. Paging Processing :
5. Access Processing :
TX (TX-Integer) :
Used to calculate number of timeslots in the intervall between multiple channel requests send by MS
32 (RACH timeslots, equal to TDMA frame 4.615ms) / range : 3-12, 14, 16, 20, 25, 32, 50 /SET
GCELLIDLEBASIC
RACHACCLEV (CS_RACH_Min_Access_Level) :
Minimum received level for access burst in CS domain -109 / range : -121 to -104 (dBm) / SET
GCELLCCACCESS
PSRACHACCLEV (PS_RACH_Min_Access_Level) :
Minimum received level for access burst in PS domain -109 / range : -121 to -104 (dBm) / SET
GCELLCCACCESS
6. Other Parameters :
NB : this function is not recommanded by experience, it’s better to use dynamic SDCCH
Direct Retry :
If no TCH is available, handover can take place instead of a TCH assignement. Direct retry is
performed according to 2 factors : Trafic Load and Received Level Yes / SET GCELLBASICPARA
Algorithm :
1. Direct Retry is Enable, then
2. Assignement Cell Load Judge Enable is Enable, then
3. Load of serving cell >= Cell Direct Retry Forbiden Threshold (s), then
4. Liad of neighboring cell <= Direct Retry Load Access Threshold (n), then
5. Rxlev(n) > Rxlev(s) + Inter-Cell HO Hysteresis (S=>N) + Direct retry Handover Level Range
(S=>N), then
6. Trigger Direct Retry
Inter-Cell HO Hysteresis :
Reduce ping-pong handovers between cells in the same layer 4 (in dense urban) and 8 (in
suburban) / range : 0-63 (dB) / ADD G2GNCELL
NB : Based on simulation results, RLT and SAMULFRM are recommanded to be set 32 for AMR FR/HR.
NB : It’s not recommanded to enable call re-establishement in urban because it takes time (silence)
and it wastes radio ressources. It can be enabled in rural area or some special cell cases.
T3105 :
Timer started by BTS after sending Phy. Info to MS waiting for SABM frame from MS, if timeout then
BTS re-send Phy. Info again 7 (10ms step) / range : 0-255 / SET GCELLHOAD
T200 :
Timer for LAPD protocol used to avoid deadlock during data transmission on the data link layer 12
(10ms) / range : 60-2400 / SET BTSRINGATTR
NB : T200=12 (for good quality of transmission), T200=24 (for bad quality of transmission)
N200 :
Maximum number of times between LAPD frame transmission 3 / range : 1-3 / SET BTSRINGATTR
CANPC (PWRC) :
Used to indicate to the MS to ignore the value of received level obtained from the timeslots of BCCH
TRX when MS measures receiving levels during base-band hopping mode Yes / SET GCELLCCCH
FRULDTX / HRULDTX :
User to indicate whether MS uses DTX function Shall use / range : May use (MSC decide to use or
not), Shall use (BSC decide to use or not), Shall not use / SET GCELLBASICPARA
FRDLDTX / HRDLDTX :
User to indicate downlink DTX function is used in the cell Yes / SET GCELLBASICPARA
Speech Version :
Indicates which speech version is supported 1111010 / range : FR version 1(FR 13kb/s), FR version
2 (EFR 12.2kb/s), FR version 3 (AMRFR) HR version 1 (HR), HR version 2, HR version 3 (AMRHR), FR
version 5 (WB-AMR)/ SET GCELLCCACCESS
NB : For normal FR/HR, if user occuppy a FR/HR channel, he stays FR/HR until end of channel
occuppation. But, in AMR FR/HR, user can perform FR to HR and HR to FR handovers.
Full Rate AMR supports 8 voice coding modes : 12.2kb/s, 10.2kb/s, 7.95kb/s, 7.40kb/s, 6.70kb/s,
5.90kb/s, 5.15kb/s, 4.75kb/s
Half Rate AMR supports 6 voice coding modes : 7.95kb/s, 7.40kb/s, 6.70kb/s, 5.90kb/s, 5.15kb/s,
4.75kb/s
Accorning to the simulation result, when C/I is greater than 6, the voice quality performance in
descending order is AMRFR, EFR, AMRHR,TCHFR and TCHHR.
The voice quality performance of AMRHR is similar to FR. However, radio bandwidth occupied by
AMRHR in radio interface is only Half of that occupied by FR. Therfore, AMRHR can not only ensure
the good voice quality but also can increase system capacity effectively.
A interface Tag :
Um interface Tag :
Phase Tag for GSM protocols supported by Um interface GSM_PHASE_2Plus / range :
GSM_PHASE_1 (GSM900/CS), GSM_PHASE_2 (GSM900/DCS1800/GPRS), GSM_PHASE_2Plus
(GSM900/DCS1800/GPRS/EDGE) / SET BSCBASIC
ACS (AMR Activated Voice Coding Set) should be set based on radio environement. However,
because of radio environement complexity and user behaviour randomness, not all the coding mode
can be activated. The number of coding modes (data rates) is determined by the ACS. According to
GSM specifications, the ACS supports 4 data rates at most : generally, the best one, the worst one
and two other modes between them are selected.
NB : AMR coding ode adjustement is done in BTS level not in BSC and Hysteresises are used juste for
going up from lowest rate to highest one, for going down only thresholds are used.
AMR improves voice quality (trafic quality) but it can’t imporve signalling quality. So, repeated
FACCH/SACCH are designed to improve signalling quality.
Repeated SACCH :
Whether repeated SACCH function is supported in the cell Yes / SET GCELLCCBASIC
Intracell HO Allowed :
Whether intracell handover is allowed in the cell Yes / SET GCELLHOBASIC
