using the different EGPRS modulation and coding schemes (MCS) and GPRS coding schemes CS-3 and CS-4. The transferred
data is represented on the radio link control (RLC) block level. The payloads carried by the RLC blocks using different coding
schemes are shown in the table "Data amounts in radio blocks using different modulation and coding schemes". The
measurement also has counters for different cases of invalid RLC blocks as well as RLC block retransmissions. The object
level of this measurement is the BTS and the modulation and coding schemes used within.Because the MCS information is not
available for radio blocks having bad header information, these blocks are reported on a dummy MCS identifier MCS-0. Other
counters are updated on their respective modulation and coding scheme ranging from MCS-1 to MCS-9. CS-3 and CS-4
countersare updated on coding scheme identifiers 11 and 12, respectively. The counters 079000-079009 are updated both for

RBS_PS_FER_BSC_DAYBH, RBS_PS_FER_BSC_WEEKBH
Desc ription The FER Measurement regi sters info rmation on the speech qual ity i n the Rad io interface.The FER Measurement provides the
uplink frame erasure rate (UL FER) from each codec of each TRX in the BTS. This provides a more realistic measure of voice
quality in the system than the bit error ratio (BER)-based RxQuality measurement.Additionally, the downlink frame erasure rate
(DL FER) is estimated using the correlation between the UL FER and UL BER values and applying these to the DL BER values.
Both the UL FER and actual or estimated DL FER values are reported in the FER measurement.When the Enhanced
Measurement Report is in use, actual DL FER values are available and the counters for real DL FER samples are updated
instead of the counters for estimated DL FER. Note that the updating of FER Measurement UL and DL counters can be affected
by data filtering. That is, if the UL RX Level value of a measurement report is below the set filtering value, the UL counters of the
FER Measurement are not updated. Also, if the DL RX Level value is below the set filtering value, the DL counters of the FER
Measurement are not updated. The data filtering is enabled and disabled with the PRFILE parameter RCS_FER_FILTER.
The RX Level threshold for data filtering can be defined with the UTPFIL parameter RCS_FER_FILTER_LEVEL_PRM_C; the
default value is -98 dBm.This measurement is optional.This measurement type has been present since release S10.

Desc ription The So ft Channel Capacity measu remen t i s op ti ona l and con tro ll ed by a li cence.Th is measurement type regi sters information
on the availability of traffic channels (TCH) in BCSU object level. The time congestion of TCHs and the average and peak
numbers of busy TCHs are measured. The collected information is sampled for averaging at certain intervals. This sampling
interval for the defined counters is 20 seconds for some statistical items that are averaged. Thus the actual value of this
measurement contains averaged information collected within a measurement period. The Soft Channel Capacity measurement
collects one set of results for BCSU logical address.This measurement type has been present since release S12.

counters correspond to the eight RX Quality bands, as defined in 3GPP TS 45.008, both in uplink and downlink directions. The
counters are updated by the RX Quality values as measured by the MS (downlink) and BTS (uplink) and reported in the radio

to Adaptive Multi Rate (AMR) give information about the distribution of the received signal quality using the different AMR
bitrates. There are separate uplink and downlink counters for each RX quality band 0..7 and for full rate as well as for half rate.
There are also DL quality counters for Single Antenna Interference (SAIC) capable MSs. There are eight different bitrates (4.75,
5.15, 5.90, 6.70, 7.40, 7.95, 10.2 and 12.2) for AMR FR and five different bitrates (4.75, 5.15, 5.90, 6.70 and 7.40) for AMR HR.

about the amount of Errored Background Blocks (EBB), amount of Errored Seconds (ES), amount of Severely Errored Seconds

equipment on physical interface (SET). The measurement identifier is 513/201H.The object is SDH/SONET exchange terminal

terminated to a certain SDH/SONET exchange terminal.
In case VC-12 over VC-4 mapping is used, the STM-1/OC-3 interface contains one path, the counters of PATH1 are updated
and others are left to zero. In case VC-12 over VC-3 or VC-11 over VC-3 / VT1.5 over STS-1 mapping is used, the STM-1/OC-3
interface contains three paths and all path counters are updated. n be used.There is a restriction in defects that effect far-end
counters. If there is a near-end SES caused by near-end defect then far-end path at same stage is assumed error free. This is
because the far-end error indications and counts got from SDH/SONET frame are possibly corrupted because of near-end
defects.In case the terminology is different according to the regulations of American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and

measurement you can retrieve information that indicates the places in the network where more capacity is needed. When
locating the traffic distribution, information on the adjacent cell RX levels is needed. Therefore the traffic distribution is identified
with an accuracy of the serving cell and three adjacent cells. Three adjacent cells are combined into triplets that are used in
identifying the hot spots. The selection of the cells included in these triplets is made according to the RX levels so that the three
adjacent cells with the strongest signal levels are included in one triplet. The hot spot measurement indicates the traffic
distribution with an accuracy of these triplets. The timing advance distribution is also included in the hot spot measurement
data. This measurement is optional. This measurement type has been present since release S6.
