...

60 60 seconds time to try handover, release if handover isunsuccessful.

255 No release, only handover attempts.

BTS site battery backup forced HO timer <option>

TIM = decimal number

With this parameter you define the maximum time period during which handoveris attempted in TRXs if a mains power failure is detected in the BTS and the sparepower supply is being taken into use. After the defined period has elapsed,remaining calls are force-released. This is done in order to make the battery lastlonger during power cuts.

The values range from 1 to 500 seconds.

enable emergency call on FACCH

With this parameter you enable or disable the emergency call setup on FACCH.The emergency call setup on FACCH is possible only in those cells in which theemergency call is not restricted (BTS level parameter EC). The FACCH call setupis only possible when SDCCH congestion occurs.

The values are:


EEF = Y Enable emergency call setup on FACCH.

N Disable emergency call setup on FACCH.

enable answer to paging call on FACCH <option>

With this parameter you enable or disable an answer to the paging call setup onFACCH. The FACCH call setup is only possible when SDCCH congestionoccurs. The values are:




EPF = Y Enable answer to paging call setup on FACCH.

N Disable answer to paging call setup on FACCH.

enable ordinary calls on FACCH <option>

With this parameter you enable or disable the ordinary call setup on FACCH. TheFACCH call setup is only possible when SDCCH congestion occurs. The valuesare:


EOF = Y Enable ordinary calls setup on FACCH.

N Disable ordinary calls setup on FACCH.

enable call re-establishment on FACCH <option>

With this parameter you enable or disable the call re-establishment setup onFACCH. The call re-establishment setup on FACCH is possible only in thosecells in which the call re-establishment (BTS level parameter RE) is allowed. TheFACCH call setup is only possible when SDCCH congestion occurs. The valuesare:


ERF = Y Enable call re-establishment setup on FACCH.

N Disable call re-establishment setup on FACCH.

TCH in handover <option>

HRI = decimal number

With this parameter you define the traffic channel allocation during BSS internalor external handovers. The parameter controls the target cell selection and theTCH channel rate and speech codec determination in traffic channel allocation.The values are:


HRI = 1 The call serving type of TCH has to be allocated primarily. The callserving type of speech codec inside the call serving type of TCH canchange.





2 Primary allocation is preferred for the call serving type of TCH and thecall serving type of speech codec during the speech connection. Thechannel rate change is possible during data connection, if necessary,and if the radio interface data rate allows it.

3 The channel rate and speech codec changes are denied totally.

4 The preferred channel rate of TCH and preferred speech codec haveto be primarily allocated.

5 TCH has to be allocated primarily from the best BTS of the handovercandidate list.

lower limit for FR TCH resources <option>

HRL = decimal number

With this parameter you define the lower limit for the percentage of free full rateresources. Full rate TCHs are allocated until the number of free full rate resourcesis reduced below the value of the parameter. The half rate resources are thenallocated.

The parameter controls the TCH channel rate determination on the BSC levelaccording to the cell load in traffic channel allocation.

The values range from 0 to 100 %.

Parameters HRL and HRU can have the same values and effects as the BTSobject parameters FRL and FRU. When the BTS level parameters FRL and FRUhave reasonable values (FRL is equal to or smaller than FRU), the BSC levelparameters are not significant in TCH allocation. Otherwise the control of theBSC object parameters will be followed. The cell load control will be appliedonly if the preferred TCH channel rate is given by MSC.

During optional Half Rate, the parameter controls the TCH channel ratedetermination on BSC level according to the cell load in traffic channelallocation. Full rate TCHs are allocated until the number of free full rate resourcesis reduced below the value of the parameter. After that half rate resources areallocated. During optional Adaptive Multi Rate (AMR) Speech Codec theparameter controls the packing of FR AMR calls to HR calls on BSC levelaccording to the cell load. Packing is done via an intra-cell handover. Packing isactive when the number of free full rate resources is reduced below the value ofthe parameter and is actually triggered by a new channel allocation for BSC. Theprinciple in packing is that the number of free full rate resources increases by onecompared to the situation before the new channel allocation.

upper limit for FR TCH resources <option>



HRU = decimal number

With this parameter you define the upper limit for the percentage of free full rateresources. Full rate TCHs are allocated when the number of free full rateresources exceeds the value of the parameter.

The parameter controls the TCH channel rate determination on the BSC levelaccording to the cell load in traffic channel allocation.


Parameters HRL and HRU can have the same values and effects as the BTSobject parameters FRL and FRU. When the BTS level parameters FRL and FRUhave reasonable values (FRL is equal to or smaller than FRU), the BSC levelparameters are not significant in TCH allocation. Otherwise the control of theBSC object parameters will be followed. The cell load control will be appliedonly if the preferred TCH channel rate is given by MSC.

During optional Half Rate, the parameter controls the TCH channel ratedetermination on BSC level according to the cell load in traffic channelallocation. Full rate TCHs are allocated when the number of free full rateresources increases above the value of the parameter. During optional AMR theparameter controls the packing of FR AMR calls to HR calls on BSC levelaccording to the cell load. Packing becomes inactive when the number of free fullrate resources increases above the value of the parameter.

BSC call number <option>

BCN = decimal number

With this parameter you define the BSC ISDN call number. The values rangefrom 0000 to 999999999999999 (from four to 15 digits).

AMH upper load threshold <option>

AUT = decimal number

With this advanced multilayer handling parameter you define the upper thresholdfor the load of the base station. The parameter is used to trigger BSC-controlledtraffic reason handovers.





Note

If a cell level parameter has some other value than N, it replaces thecorresponding BSC-level parameter.

AMH lower load threshold <option>

ALT = decimal number

With this parameter you define the lower threshold for the load of the basestation. The parameter is used to trigger advanced multilayer handlingfunctionality with IUO and/or Dual Band/microcell SW products.


Note


AMH max load of target cell <option>

AML = decimal number

With this advanced multilayer handling parameter you define the maximumtraffic load in the adjacent cell allowed for a target cell of traffic reason handover(TRHO).


Note


AMR configuration in handovers <option>

With this parameter you define the preference between the currently usedmultirate configuration and the one defined for the target BTS during internal andexternal handovers. The values are:




ACH = 1 The currently used multirate configuration is preferred in furtherchannel allocations.

2 The multirate configuration of the target BTS is preferred in furtherchannel allocations.

initial AMR channel rate <option>

With this parameter you define the initial channel in call setup, internal inter–cellhandover (HO) and external HO for an Adaptive Multi Rate (AMR) call. Thevalues are:


IAC = 1 Any Rate, there are not any extra requirements for the parameterand the chosen channel rate is defined by taking into account thecurrently used information for channel allocation.

2 AMR FR is allocated despite of the values of the currently usedinformation for channel allocation.

slow AMR LA enabled <option>

With this parameter you define the AMR link adaptation (LA) mode within theBSS. Alternatives are fast LA or slow LA. During the fast LA mode the BTSallows the inband codec mode changes on every other TCH frame whereas duringthe slow LA mode the BTS allows inband codec mode changes only on SACCHframe interval. The values are:


SAL = Y Enable slow AMR LA mode

N Fast LA mode is used

AMR set grades enabled <option>

With this parameter you define whether the codec mode set downgrades areapplied or not during internal HOs and whether upgrades are applied or not afterinternal HOs. The source side downgrade is used to align the source side codecset with the one chosen for the target side in order to utilize the uni-directionaldownlink connection for the target side. The utilization of the uni-directionaldownlink connection decreases the amount of muting experienced in the speechpath connection during the internal HO. The target side upgrade is done to utilizethat original AMR codec set of the target BTS which was not chosen for thetarget side because of the target side alignment with the source side duringinternal HO. The reason for this alignment is the same as in the downgrade case.





ASG = Y Downgrades and upgrades are applied

N Downgrades and upgrades are not applied

free TSL for CS downgrade <option>

CSD = decimal number

With this parameter you define a safety margin for the circuit switched traffic. Ifthe number of free TSL(s) in a BTS becomes less than the margin defined by theparameter then a GPRS downgrade is started.

The values range from 0 to 100 %. Value 0 % means that no GPRS downgrade isdone to maintain a safety margin.

free TSL for CS upgrade <option>

CSU = decimal number

With this parameter you define a safety margin for the circuit switched traffic.This margin is examined when deciding if a GPRS upgrade is allowed in a BTS.A GPRS upgrade may be done if the number of free TSLs in a BTS will still be atleast the margin defined by the parameter after the upgrade. Actually theparameter states how many seconds after an upgrade the probability for a GPRSdowngrade should be no more than 5 %. The BSC defines the number of TSLsfor the safety margin according to the given time and the number of TRXs in theBTS.

The values range from 0 to 10 s. Value 0 means that no margin is maintained inGPRS upgrade.

TRHO guard time

TGT = decimal number

With this parameter you define the guard time after a BSC-controlled or an MSC-controlled TRHO, during which a handover back to the original cell is notallowed.

The values range from 0 to 120 s.



Note


HO preference order interference DL

With this parameter you define the order of preference between intra-cell andinter-cell handovers when the cause of the handover is downlink interference.The values are:


HDL = INTER The inter-cell handover has greater priority.

INTRA The intra-cell handover has greater priority.

HO preference order interference UL

With this parameter you define the order of preference between intra-cell andinter-cell handovers when the cause of the handover is uplink interference. Thevalues are:


HUL = INTER The inter-cell handover has greater priority.

INTRA The intra-cell handover has greater priority.

load rate for channel search

CLR = decimal number

With this parameter you define the general load limit for traffic channels in a cellunder the BSC. If the TCH load in a cell is below the limit, the traffic channels forspeech and single slot data calls are allocated using rotation between TRXs in acell and between TSLs of a TRX. If the load limit has been reached or exceeded,the TCH allocation is performed trying to save larger spaces of idle FR resourcesfor the possible multislot HSCSD calls by preferring small gaps of free resourcesand ends of a TRX for single slot calls.


If the BTS-specific parameter cell load for channel search has been set (the valueis not 0) in a BTS, this will override the effect of the BSC level parameter in thatBTS.




triggering threshold for service area penalty <option>

TTSAP = decimal number

With this parameter you define the triggering level for a Service Area penalty.The Service Area-specific penalty timer is triggered if the number of incomingInter-System handovers occurring from a certain Service Area exceed the penaltytriggering level during a measurement period. While the Service Area penaltytimer is on, the BSC is not allowed to initiate an Inter-System handover attempttowards WCDMA RAN cells which belong to the Service Area.

The values range from 0 to 255.

penalty trigger measurement period <option>

PTMP = decimal number

With this parameter you define the length of the period during which the latestInter-System handover counters are used, if the WCDMA RAN Service Area andneighbour WCDMA RAN cell penalty triggering are used. According to thevalue of this parameter, the BSC calculates the number of successful incomingInter-System handovers per each Service Area and the number of unsuccessfuloutgoing Inter-System handover attempts per each neighbour WCDMA RAN cellduring the latest measurement period. The values are N, and 2...254 with 2 ssteps. The value N means that WCDMA RAN Service Area and neighbourWCDMA RAN cell penalty triggering is disabled in the BSC.

service area penalty time <option>

SAPT = decimal number

With this parameter you define the duration of the handover penalty timer whichhas been triggered for a Service Area. While the Service Area penalty timer is on,the BSC is not allowed to initiate an Inter-System handover attempt towardsWCDMA RAN cells that belong to the Service Area.


CS TCH allocate RTSL0 <option>

CTR = decimal number

With this parameter you define the priority order between GPRS and RTSL-0allocation. With the parameter you can define the RTSL-0s to be allocated beforeallocating a TCH from GPRS territory.



The values are:


CTR = N The GPRS territory is allocatedfirst. If no free resources areavailable then the RTSL-0 hoppinggroup is searched.

Y The RTSL-0 hopping group isallocated first. If no free resourcesare available then the GPRSterritory is searched.

CS TCH allocation calculation <option>

CTC = decimal number

With this parameter you define how the GPRS territory is seen when calculatingFR resources.

The values are:


CTC = 0 Only circuit switched RTSLs are noticed when calculating resources.

1 Circuit switched and packet switched RTSLs are noticed. Packetswitched RTSLs are seen as occupied resource when calculatingresources.

2 Circuit switched and packet switched RTSLs are noticed. Packetswitched RTSLs are seen as idle resource when calculating resources.

NACC enabled <option>

With this parameter you enable or disable the usage of Network Assisted CellChange (NACC) in BSC.

Mean BEP limit for MS multislot power profile 0 with 2 UL TSL

BL02 = decimal number

With this parameter you indicate the mean BEP limit for different MS multislotpower profiles when allocating more than 1 UL TSL. The measured mean BEPvalue is compared to the value of this parameter when defining how many ULTSLs can be allocated. If the mean BEP limit is set low, power reduction is nottaken into account so strictly in channel allocation.



































RX quality limit for MS multislot power profile 0 with 2 UL TSL

RL02 = decimal number

With this parameter you indicate the RX quality limit for different MS multislotpower profiles when allocating more than 1 UL TSL. The measured RX qualityvalue is compared to the value of this parameter when defining how many ULTSLs can be allocated. If the RX quality limit is set high, power reduction is nottaken into account so strictly in channel allocation.



































EGPRS inactivity criteria

EGIC = decimal number

With this parameter you define the criteria used to the (E)GPRS inactivity.

The values range from 0 to 3 with 1 step.

events per hour for EGPRS inactivity alarm

IEPH = decimal number



With this parameter you define the number of TBF allocation attempts requiredper hour for (E)GPRS inactivity alarm.


supervision period length for EGPRS inactivity alarm

With this parameter you define the maximum time accepted for a Packet FlowTimer (PFT) during a DTM allocation.

The values range from 1 to 600 s with 1 s step.

Note

A DTM allocation is released when the last PFC context of a DTM MS isdeleted by the PCU. Therefore, the PFC lifetime determines how long the CSconnection of a DTM MS is kept in the PS territory after the data traffic hasceased for the MS.

DTM fragmentation penalty

DFP = decimal number

With this parameter you define the value of the fragmentation penalty that is usedin the DTM channel allocation algorithm if there is a need to search for aconfiguration giving the highest capacity for the DTM MS.

The values range from 0 to 1 with 0.1 step.

ISHO preferred for non-DTM MS




With this parameter you determine whether an inter-system handover is to betriggered for an MS that is DTM incapable but WCDMA capable as soon as anappropriate WCDMA target cell is available.


IPND = Y ISHO is triggered

N ISHO is not triggered

Examples 1. Set the mean BEP limit for MS multislot power profile 1 with 2 ULTSL to4, RX quality limit for MS multislot power profile 0 with 3 UL TSL to 5and ISHO preferred for non-DTM MS to N.

EER PREPARE DATABASE FORDOWNLOADING OF BACKGROUND DATAFunction With the EER command you prepare the database for background downloading.

Parameters The command has no parameters.

Syntax EER;

Examples 1. Prepare database for the downloading of background data.

ZEER;


Before the command is executed, the program asks for confirmation:

CONFIRM COMMAND EXECUTION: Y/N ?

The ways that the state of background data may change in the preparation fordownloading are:

1. You modify radio network background parameters: the background datastate changes to NEW.

2. You clear the background in the BSDATA.

3. You clear the background in the BSDATA.

For more information, see Radio Network Configuration Management.

EER PREPARE DATABASE FOR DOWNLOADING OF BACKGROUND DATA





EEG CONTROL ACTIVATION OF BACKGROUNDDATAFunction With the EEG command you control the background data activation procedures

by:

. activating a new frequency plan

. performing a cross-check between background and active data

. interrupting an ongoing activation

. cancelling an interrupted activation.

Parameters operation;

Syntax EEG: [ <operation> | <ACT> def ] ;


operation

With this parameter you define the operation as:

ACT The activation operation starts the activation of thefrequency plan, that is, a switchover between thebackground data and active data.

CHK The cross-check operation cross-checks the backgrounddata. The checking is carried out to the whole database toensure that the database content after the background dataactivation is correct.

CNL The cancelling operation cancels the interruptedactivation.

INT The interruption operation interrupts the ongoingactivation of the frequency plan.

Examples 1. Start the activation of the background data.

ZEEG;




2. Run a cross-check between the background and the active data.

ZEEG:CHK;

3. Interrupt an ongoing activation.

ZEEG:INT;

4. Cancel an interrupted activation.

ZEEG:CNL;


The different alternatives how the state of the background data may change whilecontrolling the activation of the background data are:

1. The user enters the activation command. The system automaticallyexecutes a semantic cross-check.

2. The activation is completed.

3. The user modifies the backup data.

4. The user restores the original frequency plan. The system automaticallyexecutes a semantic cross-check.

5. The user interrupts an ongoing activation or it is spontaneously interruptedby a BSC reset. The user can continue the activation by re-entering theactivation command. The system does not execute semantic cross-check.

6. The user cancels the interrupted activation.

Changing the background data is denied during the activation and also if theactivation is interrupted but not cancelled.

For more information, see Radio Network Configuration Management.

When the command EEG; is executed and if the Radio Network (RNW) PlanDatabase state is one of the specific states (DOWNLOADING,DOWNLOADED, VALIDATING or VALIDATED) a confirmation to proceed isasked from the user:

RNW PLAN CONFIGURATION IS DOWNLOADED AND THIS COMMAND CANCELS THE PLAN, ARE YOU SURE

YOU WANT TO DO THIS COMMAND?


Answering Y executes the command normally, and answering N aborts thecommand. If the RNW Plan Database is in some other state, confirmation is notasked and command is executed normally.

EEI OUTPUT RADIO NETWORKCONFIGURATIONFunction With the EEI command you interrogate the radio network in the BSDATA. The

program outputs the whole radio network configuration or the configurationunder given BCFs, SEGs or BTSs.

Parameters BCF identification, SEG identification <option>, SEG name <option>, BTSidentification, BTS name: output type;

SyntaxEEI: [ [ BCF = <BCF identification> ... |

SEG = <SEG identification> ... <option> |

SEGNAME = <SEG name> ... <option> |

BTS = <BTS identification> ... |

NAME = <BTS name> ... ] | <all> def ] :

[ <output type> | <NORM> def ] ;


BCF identification

BCF = decimal number

With this parameter you identify the base control function. The value rangedepends on the BSC hardware configuration and the corresponding options. Youcan enter multiple BCFs by using characters & and &&. You can enter only oneof the parameters BCF, SEG, SEGNAME, BTS or NAME in the same command.

SEG identification <option>

SEG = decimal number or ALL

With this parameter you identify the segment. The value range is the same as theBTS identification value range. With ALL you can output all segments under aBSC.




You can enter several values at the same time by using characters & or &&. Youcan enter only one of the parameters BCF, SEG, SEGNAME, BTS or NAME inthe same command.

SEG name <option>

SEGNAME = text string

With this parameter you identify the segment by its name. The name can contain1 to 15 characters.

You can enter several names at the same time by using character &. You can enteronly one of the parameters BCF, SEG, SEGNAME, BTS or NAME in the samecommand.

BTS identification

BTS = decimal number

With this parameter you identify the BTS with a decimal number. The valuerange depends on the BSC hardware configuration and the correspondingoptions. You can enter multiple BTSs by using characters & and &&. You canenter only one of the parameters BCF, SEG, SEGNAME, BTS or NAME in thesame command.

BTS name

NAME = text string

With this parameter you identify the BTS by name. The name can contain 1...15characters. You can enter multiple BTS names by using the character &. You canenter only one of the parameters BCF, SEG, SEGNAME, BTS or NAME in thesame command.

output type

With this parameter you define the output type. The output type can be:

NORM for the normal radio network configuration output

BCSU for the following information:

. the number of created TRXs and D-channel links under BCSUs

. the number of real TCHs in the BCSUs



. the maximum TRX capacity in the BSC supported by hardware

. the maximum TRX capacity in the BSC supported by hardware andsoftware.

When calculating these numbers, all BCSUs in the WO (working) state areincluded.

The number of real TCHs is defined so that one full rate supporting resourcecorresponds to one TCH resource and one half rate or dual rate supportingresource corresponds to two TCH resources.

If you enter the command with this parameter only (ZEEI::BCSU;), the normalradio network configuration output is not shown.

The default value is NORM.

You may find it useful to output the number of TRXs under BCSUs when you arecreating a new BTS site.

Note

The number of TRXs under all BCSUs is shown even if you only output theradio network under certain BCFs or BTSs (ZEEI:BCF=1:BCSU;).

Examples 1. Output the network.

ZEEI;

2. Output the network under BCFs 1, 10, 11 and 12.

You can give values either as hexadecimal numbers or decimal numbers. Thevalues range from 1 to FFFFFF as hexadecimal numbers or from 1 to 16777215as decimal numbers. If you give a decimal number, you must type characters D'before the parameter value.

The maximum amount of signaling point codes in one LAC to SPC mapping infois 6. You can give multiple signaling point codes by using the wild card character&. You can give the same signaling point code only once. If DFCA is used underthe LAC, give the SPC address of that BSC.

Examples 1. Create LAC to SPC mapping info. The location area code number is 9 andsignaling point codes are 2345, 123455 and 345678. The signaling pointcodes are given as decimal numbers.

ZEEC:LAC=9:SPC=D'2345&D'123455&D'345678;

2. Create LAC to SPC mapping info where the mapping entry index is 2,location area code is 10 and signaling point codes are 1FF, 10FF, 100FFand 1000FF. The signaling point codes are given as hexadecimal numbers.

ZEEC:MEI=2,LAC=10:SPC=1FF&10FF&100FF&1000FF;

identification of function

With this parameter you identify whether the command adds a signaling pointcode to the LAC to SPC mapping info, removes a signaling point code from it ormodifies location area code to LAC to SPC mapping info. The values are:

A Add signaling point codes

R Remove signaling point codes

M Modify location area code.

The parameter is obligatory.

signaling point code

SPC = hexadecimal number or decimal number

With this parameter you define the signaling point code to be added to the LAC toSPC mapping info or removed from it.

You can give values either as hexadecimal numbers or decimal numbers. Thevalues range from 1 to FFFFFF as hexadecimal numbers or from 1 to 16777215as decimal numbers. If you give a decimal number you must type the charactersD' before you give the parameter value.

The maximum number of signaling point codes in one LAC to SPC mapping infois 6. You can give multiple signaling point codes by using the character &. Youcan give the same signaling point code only once.

The parameter is allowed only when you add or remove signaling point codes,and in that case the parameter is obligatory.

new location area code

NEWLAC = decimal number

With this parameter you define the new location area code.


The parameter is allowed only when you modify a location area code, and in thatcase the parameter is obligatory.



Examples 1. Add signaling point codes FFFFFF, FFFFFE, FFFFFD, FFFFFC, FFFFFB,and FFFFFA to the LAC to SPC mapping info whose location area code is2.

ZEEF:LAC=2:A:SPC=FFFFFF&FFFFFE&FFFFFD&FFFFFC&FFFFFB&FFFFFA;

2. Remove signaling point code FFFFFE from the LAC to SPC mapping infowhose location area code is 2.
