Parameter number of preferred cells

explanations
NPC = decimal number
With this parameter you define the maximum number of preferred cell identifiers
that the BSC sends to the MSC in the handover required message.
The values range from 1 to 16 preferred cell identifiers.
GSM macrocell threshold
GMAC = decimal number in steps of two
With this parameter you define the macrocell size by means of the maximum
transmission power of the MS in a GSM cell.

Issue 19-1 en
The values range from 5 to 39 dBm. If you set the parameter value at 5 dBm, the
division of cells into macrocells and microcells is not in use.
GSM microcell threshold
GMIC = decimal number in steps of two
With this parameter you define the microcell size by means of the maximum
transmission power of the MS in a GSM cell.
The values range from 5 to 39 dBm. If you set the parameter value at 39 dBm, the
division of cells into macrocells and microcells is not in use.
DCS macrocell threshold
DMAC = decimal number
With this parameter you define the macrocell size by means of the maximum
transmission power of the MS in a GSM 1800 or a GSM 1900 cell. If you set the
parameter value at 0 dBm, the division of cells into macrocells and microcells is
not in use.
The values are

for GSM 1800: 0...36 dBm with 2 dBm step
for GSM 1900: 0...32 dBm with 2 dBm step and 33 dBm with 1 dBm
DCS microcell threshold
DMIC = decimal number
With this parameter you define the microcell size by means of the maximum
transmission power of the MS in a GSM 1800 or a GSM 1900 cell. If you set the
parameter value at 36 dBm in GSM 1800 or 33 dBm in GSM 1900, the division
of cells into macrocells and microcells is not in use.
The values are

for GSM 1800: 0...36 dBm with 2 dBm step
for GSM 1900: 0...32 dBm with 2 dBm step and 33 dBm with 1 dBm
MS distance behaviour
With this parameter you define the executions allowed after the timing advance
has exceeded the threshold.

Issue 19-1 en
The value range is 0...60 and 255.
Parameter Value Explanation

DISB = 0 Release immediately.
1 1 second time to try handover, release if handover is unsuccessful.
2 2 seconds time to try handover, release if handover is unsuccessful.
...
60 60 seconds time to try handover, release if handover is
unsuccessful.
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 handover
is attempted in TRXs if a mains power failure is detected in the BTS and the spare
power 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 last
longer 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 the
emergency call is not restricted (BTS level parameter EC). The FACCH call setup
is 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 on
FACCH. The FACCH call setup is only possible when SDCCH congestion
occurs. The values are:

Issue 19-1 en

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. The
FACCH call setup is only possible when SDCCH congestion occurs. The values
are:

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 on
FACCH. The call re-establishment setup on FACCH is possible only in those
cells in which the call re-establishment (BTS level parameter RE) is allowed. The
FACCH call setup is only possible when SDCCH congestion occurs. The values
are:

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 internal
or external handovers. The parameter controls the target cell selection and the
TCH 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 call
serving type of speech codec inside the call serving type of TCH can
change.

Issue 19-1 en

2 Primary allocation is preferred for the call serving type of TCH and the
call serving type of speech codec during the speech connection. The
channel 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 have
to be primarily allocated.
5 TCH has to be allocated primarily from the best BTS of the handover
candidate 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 rate
resources. Full rate TCHs are allocated until the number of free full rate resources
is reduced below the value of the parameter. The half rate resources are then
allocated.
The parameter controls the TCH channel rate determination on the BSC level
according 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 BTS
object parameters FRL and FRU. When the BTS level parameters FRL and FRU
have reasonable values (FRL is equal to or smaller than FRU), the BSC level
parameters are not significant in TCH allocation. Otherwise the control of the
BSC object parameters will be followed. The cell load control will be applied
only if the preferred TCH channel rate is given by MSC.
During optional Half Rate, the parameter controls the TCH channel rate
determination on BSC level according to the cell load in traffic channel
allocation. Full rate TCHs are allocated until the number of free full rate resources
is reduced below the value of the parameter. After that half rate resources are
allocated. During optional Adaptive Multi Rate (AMR) Speech Codec the
parameter controls the packing of FR AMR calls to HR calls on BSC level
according to the cell load. Packing is done via an intra-cell handover. Packing is
active when the number of free full rate resources is reduced below the value of
the parameter and is actually triggered by a new channel allocation for BSC. The
principle in packing is that the number of free full rate resources increases by one
compared to the situation before the new channel allocation.
upper limit for FR TCH resources <option>

Issue 19-1 en
HRU = decimal number
With this parameter you define the upper limit for the percentage of free full rate
resources. Full rate TCHs are allocated when the number of free full rate
resources exceeds the value of the parameter.
The parameter controls the TCH channel rate determination on the BSC level
according to the cell load in traffic channel allocation.
Parameters HRL and HRU can have the same values and effects as the BTS
object parameters FRL and FRU. When the BTS level parameters FRL and FRU
have reasonable values (FRL is equal to or smaller than FRU), the BSC level
parameters are not significant in TCH allocation. Otherwise the control of the
BSC object parameters will be followed. The cell load control will be applied
only if the preferred TCH channel rate is given by MSC.
During optional Half Rate, the parameter controls the TCH channel rate
determination on BSC level according to the cell load in traffic channel
allocation. Full rate TCHs are allocated when the number of free full rate
resources increases above the value of the parameter. During optional AMR the
parameter controls the packing of FR AMR calls to HR calls on BSC level
according to the cell load. Packing becomes inactive when the number of free full
rate 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 range
from 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 threshold
for the load of the base station. The parameter is used to trigger BSC-controlled
traffic reason handovers.

Issue 19-1 en
Note
If a cell level parameter has some other value than N, it replaces the
corresponding BSC-level parameter.
AMH lower load threshold <option>
ALT = decimal number
With this parameter you define the lower threshold for the load of the base
station. The parameter is used to trigger advanced multilayer handling
functionality 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 maximum
traffic 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 used
multirate configuration and the one defined for the target BTS during internal and
external handovers. The values are:

Issue 19-1 en

ACH = 1 The currently used multirate configuration is preferred in further
channel allocations.
2 The multirate configuration of the target BTS is preferred in further
channel allocations.
initial AMR channel rate <option>
With this parameter you define the initial channel in call setup, internal inter–cell
handover (HO) and external HO for an Adaptive Multi Rate (AMR) call. The
values are:

IAC = 1 Any Rate, there are not any extra requirements for the parameter
and the chosen channel rate is defined by taking into account the
currently used information for channel allocation.
2 AMR FR is allocated despite of the values of the currently used
information for channel allocation.
slow AMR LA enabled <option>
With this parameter you define the AMR link adaptation (LA) mode within the
BSS. Alternatives are fast LA or slow LA. During the fast LA mode the BTS
allows the inband codec mode changes on every other TCH frame whereas during
the slow LA mode the BTS allows inband codec mode changes only on SACCH
frame 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 are
applied or not during internal HOs and whether upgrades are applied or not after
internal HOs. The source side downgrade is used to align the source side codec
set with the one chosen for the target side in order to utilize the uni-directional
downlink connection for the target side. The utilization of the uni-directional
downlink connection decreases the amount of muting experienced in the speech
path connection during the internal HO. The target side upgrade is done to utilize
that original AMR codec set of the target BTS which was not chosen for the
target side because of the target side alignment with the source side during
internal HO. The reason for this alignment is the same as in the downgrade case.

Issue 19-1 en

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. If
the number of free TSL(s) in a BTS becomes less than the margin defined by the
parameter then a GPRS downgrade is started.
The values range from 0 to 100 %. Value 0 % means that no GPRS downgrade is
done 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 at
least the margin defined by the parameter after the upgrade. Actually the
parameter states how many seconds after an upgrade the probability for a GPRS
downgrade should be no more than 5 %. The BSC defines the number of TSLs
for the safety margin according to the given time and the number of TRXs in the
BTS.
The values range from 0 to 10 s. Value 0 means that no margin is maintained in

GPRS 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 not
allowed.
The values range from 0 to 120 s.

Issue 19-1 en
Note
HO preference order interference DL
With this parameter you define the order of preference between intra-cell and
inter-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 and
inter-cell handovers when the cause of the handover is uplink interference. The
values 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 cell
under the BSC. If the TCH load in a cell is below the limit, the traffic channels for
speech and single slot data calls are allocated using rotation between TRXs in a
cell 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 resources
for the possible multislot HSCSD calls by preferring small gaps of free resources
and ends of a TRX for single slot calls.
If the BTS-specific parameter cell load for channel search has been set (the value
is not 0) in a BTS, this will override the effect of the BSC level parameter in that
BTS.

Issue 19-1 en
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 incoming
Inter-System handovers occurring from a certain Service Area exceed the penalty
triggering level during a measurement period. While the Service Area penalty
timer is on, the BSC is not allowed to initiate an Inter-System handover attempt
towards 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 latest
Inter-System handover counters are used, if the WCDMA RAN Service Area and
neighbour WCDMA RAN cell penalty triggering are used. According to the
value of this parameter, the BSC calculates the number of successful incoming
Inter-System handovers per each Service Area and the number of unsuccessful
outgoing Inter-System handover attempts per each neighbour WCDMA RAN cell
during the latest measurement period. The values are N, and 2...254 with 2 s
steps. The value N means that WCDMA RAN Service Area and neighbour
WCDMA RAN cell penalty triggering is disabled in the BSC.
service area penalty time <option>
SAPT = decimal number

EEG CONTROL ACTIVATION OF BACKGROUND

DATA
Function 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 ] ;
Parameter operation
explanations
With this parameter you define the operation as:
ACT The activation operation starts the activation of the
frequency plan, that is, a switchover between the
background data and active data.
CHK The cross-check operation cross-checks the background
data. The checking is carried out to the whole database to
ensure that the database content after the background data
activation is correct.
CNL The cancelling operation cancels the interrupted
activation.
INT The interruption operation interrupts the ongoing
activation of the frequency plan.
Examples 1. Start the activation of the background data.
ZEEG;

Issue 19-1 en
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;
Additional The different alternatives how the state of the background data may change while
information controlling the activation of the background data are:
1. The user enters the activation command. The system automatically

executes 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 automatically
executes a semantic cross-check.
5. The user interrupts an ongoing activation or it is spontaneously interrupted
by a BSC reset. The user can continue the activation by re-entering the
activation 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 the
activation 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) Plan
Database state is one of the specific states (DOWNLOADING,
DOWNLOADED, VALIDATING or VALIDATED) a confirmation to proceed is

of 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 the
BTS identification value range. With ALL you can output all segments under a
BSC.

Issue 19-1 en
You can enter several values at the same time by using characters & or &&. You
can enter only one of the parameters BCF, SEG, SEGNAME, BTS or NAME in
the same command.
SEG name <option>
SEGNAME = text string
With this parameter you identify the segment by its name. The name can contain
1 to 15 characters.
You can enter several names at the same time by using character &. You can enter
only one of the parameters BCF, SEG, SEGNAME, BTS or NAME in the same
command.
BTS identification
BTS = decimal number
With this parameter you identify the BTS with a decimal number. The value
range depends on the BSC hardware configuration and the corresponding
options. You can enter multiple BTSs by using characters & and &&. You can
enter only one of the parameters BCF, SEG, SEGNAME, BTS or NAME in the
same command.
BTS name
NAME = text string
With this parameter you identify the BTS by name. The name can contain 1...15
characters. You can enter multiple BTS names by using the character &. You can
enter only one of the parameters BCF, SEG, SEGNAME, BTS or NAME in the
same 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

Issue 19-1 en
. the maximum TRX capacity in the BSC supported by hardware

. the maximum TRX capacity in the BSC supported by hardware and
software.
When calculating these numbers, all BCSUs in the WO (working) state are
included.
The number of real TCHs is defined so that one full rate supporting resource
corresponds to one TCH resource and one half rate or dual rate supporting
resource corresponds to two TCH resources.
If you enter the command with this parameter only (ZEEI::BCSU;), the normal
radio 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 are
creating a new BTS site.

Function With the EEL command you output the TRX's radio time slots that are in a given
operational state.
Parameters operational state: BCF identification, BTS identification, BTS name;
Syntax
EEL: [ <operational state> ] :
[ [ BCF = <BCF identification> ... |

NAME = <BTS name> ... ] | <all> def ] ;
Parameter operational state

explanations
With this parameter you define the radio time slot's operational state. The inquiry
from the BSDATA is based on this state.
The state values are:

BL= blocked
BL-BCF= blocked-bcf_fault
BL-BTS= blocked-bts_fault
BL-CF= blocked-cu/fu_fault
BL-CLK= blocked-clock_fault
BL-CU= blocked-cu_fault
BL-DGN= blocked-diagnostic
BL-FLO= blocked-floating
BL-FTY= blocked-faulty
BL-FU= blocked-fu_fault
BL-PWR= blocked-mains_power_fault
BL-RSL= blocked-rsl_fault
BL-RST= blocked-reset
BL-SHD= blocked-shutting_down
BL-SU= blocked-bcsu_reset

BL-SYS= blocked-system
BL-TRX= blocked-trx_fault
BL-TSL= blocked-timeslot_fault
BL-TST= blocked-testing
BL-USR= blocked-user
BL-WAC= blocked-waiting for autoconfiguration
If you give the BL parameter value, the program outputs all radio time slots of the
TRX that are in the BL state or its substate. If you give the BL-FTY parameter
value, the program outputs the same information except for the TRX's radio time
slots that are in BL-USR or BL-TST state.
If you do not give this parameter, the program outputs only the number of the
idle, busy and blocked radio time slots and GPRS radio time slots.

Function With the EEC command you create LAC to SPC mapping info in the BSDATA.
The command is optional.
Parameters mapping entry index, location area code : signaling point code;
Syntax EEC: MEI = <mapping entry index>,

LAC = <location area code> :
[ SPC = <signaling point code> ... ] ; <option>
Parameter mapping entry index

explanations
MEI = decimal number
With this parameter you define the mapping entry index which is an indication for
a mapping relation between the location area code and the signaling point code in
the LAC to SPC mapping info.
The values range from 1 to 64. If you do not give this parameter, the smallest free
mapping entry index value is searched and used.
location area code
LAC = decimal number
With this parameter you define the location area code which will be mapped with
a signaling point code.
The parameter is obligatory.
signaling point code
SPC = hexadecimal number or decimal number

Issue 19-1 en
With this parameter you define the signaling point code which will be mapped
with a location area code.
You can give values either as hexadecimal numbers or decimal numbers. The
values range from 1 to FFFFFF as hexadecimal numbers or from 1 to 16777215
as 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 info
is 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 under
the LAC, give the SPC address of that BSC.
Examples 1. Create LAC to SPC mapping info. The location area code number is 9 and
signaling point codes are 2345, 123455 and 345678. The signaling point
codes are given as decimal numbers.
