Cell Parameters Overview
Cell Parameters include the most of radio network parameters transmitted via Um interface.
Via receiving cell parameters, MS is able to exactly select, access and coordinate with the network through which different kinds of service is provided.
Via reasonably cell parameters, BTS can run in high point and whole system can be effectively utilized to provide more and better services although basing on limited resources.

Cell Parameters Overview
Cell Parameters can be sent through two kinds of logical channels
BCCH (in idle mode) SACCH (in dedicated mode)

Network Identity Parameter CGI
Network identity parameters mainly include
Cell Global Identity (CGI) Base Station Identity Code (BSIC)
Page8
Network Identity Parameter CGI

CGI=MCC+MNC+LAC+CI Once MS receives SYS INFO, it decodes the CGI information, and decides whether it can stay in the cell according to the MCC and MNC indicated by CGI.
At the same time, it judges whether the current location area is changed, so as to decide whether to execute location update. During the location update process, MS will report the new LAI to the network, so that the network can know the LA in which MS is currently located.
Page9
Mobile Country CodeMCC
Definition: MCC consists of 1~3 decimal numbers. It indicates the home country of the mobile subscriber.
Format: MCC is composed of 1~3 decimal numbers. The coding range is decimal 0~999.
Command: ADD GCELL / MOD GCELL / LST GCELL
Page10
Mobile Network CodeMNC
Definition: MNC is used to uniquely identify a specific GSM PLMN network in a certain country (decided by MCC).
Format: MNC is composed of 1~3 decimal numbers. The coding range is decimal 0~999.
Page11
Location Area CodeLAC
Definition: To locate the location of MS, the whole area covered by each GSM PLMN is divided into different location areas. LAC is used to identify different location areas.
Format: LAI contains LAC. LAC adopts decimal coding. The available range is from 0 to 65535. (please refer to specification GSM0303, 0408, and 1111). One location area can contain one or more cells.
Page12
Cell IdentityCI
Definition: To uniquely identify each cell in the GSM PLMN, the network operator needs to allocate one code for each cell, which is the cell identity (CI). Cell identity, together with LAI, is used for identity of each cell in the world.
Format: CI is composed of decimal numbers, The available range is 0~65535.
Page13
Network Identity Parameter BSIC

BSIC=NCC+BCC In GSM system, each BTS is allocated with a color code, which is called BSIC. MS can identify two cells with the same BCCH by the help of BSIC.
In network planning, make sure that BCCH of neighbor cells are different from the serving cells BCCH to reduce the interference.
Practically it is still possible that a same BCCH is re-used in the surrounding cells. For cells using the same BCCH in a relevant near distance, their BSIC must be different so that MS can identify two neighbor cells with same BCCH.
Page14
Network Color CodeNCC
Definition: NCC is a part of BSIC. MS uses it to distinguish adjacent BTS that belong to different GSM PLMN.
Format: NCC is composed of decimal numbers, The available range is 0 to 7.
Page15
BTS Color CodeBCC
Definition: BCC is a part of BSIC. For its function, please refer to above sections.
Format: BCC is composed of decimal numbers. The available range is 0~7.

ATT

Value Range: Yes, No Description: It is Attach-detach allowed. It is used to inform MS whether IMSI attach-detach is allowed in this cell. If it is set to Yes, the network will not process the connection to the called mobile subscriber when MS is power-off. Thus network processing time and radio resources are saved. Otherwise the network will process the connection even though the MS has been powered off.

Value Range: -121~-109 Unit: dbm Description: The parameter affects the access of an MS in the CS domain. That is to say, the BTS determines the threshold of the level for the random access of the MS. When the receive level of the RACH burst is lower than the threshold, the BTS regards this access as an invalid access and no decoding is performed. Only when the receive level for the burst timeslot of the random access is greater than the threshold, the BTS regards that this timeslot has an access request.

SACCH Multi-Frames

Value Range: 0~63 Unit: SACCH period (480ms) Description: It is a timer used to determine whether the uplink radio link connection fails. BSS judges the uplink radio link failure according to uplink SACCH BER.
Every time BTS fails to decode the MR sent from MS, this timer decreases by 1; Every time BTS succeeds to decode the MR, this timer increases by 2. When this timer reaches 0, BTS judges that the uplink radio connection fails, then BTS sends a radio connection failure message to BSC. This parameter and the radio link timeout (RLT) are used to judge the uplink/downlink radio connection failure.

Page50
Definition of Classmark
In GSM system, the abilities that MS supports, such as service ability, band ability, power ability, encryption ability, is described by the classmark. BSC decodes the information according to the requirement of network and transfer to the network.
There are 3 kinds of classmark:Classmark1Classmark2Classmark3. Network knows about abilities of MS either via inquiring for MSs CLASSMARK or via requiring MS to report CLASSMARK3 immediately by itself after link setup.

Cell Reselection Process
Cell reselection for cells in the same location area
If the C2 value of the target cell is higher than that of the serving cell for longer than 5 seconds, a cell reselection process will be performed and the MS tunes to the new cell.
Cell reselection for cells in different location areas
If the C2 value of the target cell is higher than that of the serving cell by at least the value of CRH for longer than 5 seconds, a location update process and the cell reselection process will be performed.
Two consecutive cell reselections caused by C2 have a time interval of 15 seconds. In other words to say, if because of C2 a MS reselected to a cell, then the MS cannot reselect to another cell by the cause of C2 within 15 seconds. If current serving cell is prohibited, or down link fails, or C1 is less than 0 continuously for 5s, cell reselection will also be triggered. MS starts a cell reselection if the access times exceed the MAX retrans.

Page92
Interference Calculation Period

Value range: 1~31 Unit: SACCH period (480 ms) Recommended Values: 20 Description: Before the BTS transmits the radio resource indication message to the BSC, the interference levels measured on idle channels in the period defined by this parameter are averaged. The average interference level is used to classify the interference levels on idle channels into five interference bands. A too big value of this parameter cannot reflect the change of interference. A too small value of this parameter wastes the resources. Command: SET GCELLOTHEXT / LST GCELLOTHEXT
Page93
FR/HR UL DTX

Page94
FR/HR Use DL DTX

Value range: Yes, No Default Value: Yes Description: This parameter indicates whether downlink DTX is used in a cell . The use of FR/HR downlink DTX is also controlled by the DTX switch in the MSC. If downlink DTX is forbidden in the MSC, downlink DTX is not used regardless of the setting of this parameter. If downlink DTX is allowed in the MSC, the setting of this parameter can determine whether downlink DTX is used in the cell.
Page95
T200 and N200
T200 :
T200 timers are used to avoid deadlock during data transfer on the data link layer. On the LAPDm layer, every time a message is sent, the opposite end is requested to acknowledge the reception. If this message is lost for unknown reasons, it will occur that both ends keep waiting, leading to system deadlock. Therefore, a timer should be started when the sender sends a message. If the timer times out, the sender will regard that the receiver has not received the message and will resend the message.
N200
The maximum resend times are determined by N200. Different timer values should be set for different LAPDm channels such as SDCCH, FACCH and SACCH. This is because these channels have different transmission rate.
Command: SET GCELLCCTMR / LST GCELLCCTMR
Page96
Use LAPDm N200

Range: Yes, No Description: Determines whether BSC delivers LAPDm N200 parameters to BTS. If it configured as Yes, then LPADm N200 parameters will be delivered to BTS, otherwise not.
