GENERAL PRESENTATION Preliminaries

- A general overview, - A detailed description of the Information Elements, - A bit description.
Each message is described in the same way:
The messages dictionary includes also in this part: - A summary of all the messages described into the dictionary, (1) - A cross reference of all the Information Elements. This allows finding all the messages in which one Information Element appears.
2.2
Messages presentation
2.2.1 Introduction All the messages are organised alphabetically under the relevant interface (SMSCB and GPRS messages are gathered each in a dedicated section). Three parts are given for each messages: - a general overview: It is a general description of the message including the Information Elements list, the maximum and minimum lengths in octets, the normal and abnormal following events. - A detailed description of the Information Elements: It is mainly the use of the Information Element within the BSS entities. - A Bit Description: It is a bit presentation of the message as it is received or transmitted over the involved interfaces.
2.2.2 The general overview It is the first page for each message. It includes: NAME field: The name of the message. INTERFACE field: The list of three Interfaces CHANNEL/USAGE field: According to the involved interface, it is the radio channel definition or the fact that the message is transparent or not for the BTS. When the box is empty, the message is not used on this interface. 3GPP-REF. field: It is the reference to a 3GPP technical specification. FUNCTION field: It is the description of the function of the message. This is extracted from the 3GPP technical specifications. DIRECTION field: It is the direction of the message from one entity of the BSS or MS to another one. INFORMATION ELEMENT LIST field: ED EVOLIUM 01 RELEASED LAYER 3 MESSAGE DICTIONARY - AIR INTERFACE

It is the list of all the Information Elements. For each Information Element the following information is given: - Mandatory or Optional, - Fixed or Variable length, - The length in bytes, - Some short comments. For a full description of the use of 'M', 'C', 'L', 'O' and 'V', refer to 3GPP TS 04.07. These rules are also used for SMSCB IEs although they are not defined in 3GPP TS. IMPLEMENTATION MAXIMUM LENGTH field: It is the total of all used information elements, mandatory or optional. When the length is fixed for all parameters, a unique value is given. When not, a range is given ("minimum length" - "maximum length") FOLLOWING EVENT field: It is the description of following events (for specific procedure) for the normal and abnormal cases. TIMER field: It is the name of the Timers (started or stopped) associated with the message. SPECIFICATION DOC. REF. field: It is the reference of relevant ALCATEL document.
2.3
The information element description
One page (or more) per Information Element (The classification of the following pages respects the order given by 3GPP TS). On the Radio Interface, if the Information element is mandatory, the Information element identifier (IEI) is not present (it is marked with a star). If the length is fixed the length is not present. For each Information Element: PARAMETER NAME field TYPE field: This field is used to give the Mandatory or Optional information. Note: In the 3GPP TS 44.018, this field has been split into two fields designated presence and Format. For simplicity the designation TYPE is retained in this document. DEFINITION field: It is an extract of 3GPP TSs. giving the usage of the Information Element. BIT DESCRIPTION field: It is a bit description of the element with all the needed information, including the sub parameter definition. SUB-PARAMETER DEFINITION field: It is a description (if needed) of all the sub parameters defined in the bit description. PARAMETER ORIGIN - ACTION ON PARAMETER field: It is a description of the action to be performed when receiving or transmitting the message.
2.3.1 The bit description The Bit Description (or General Description) is an overview of the message as it is sent over the various interfaces.
2.4

TRANSACTION IDENTIFIER/SKIP INDICATOR
DEFINITION The purpose of transaction identifier (TI) is to distinguish multiple parallel activities (transactions) within one mobile station. The TI flag identifies who allocates the TI value for this transaction, so the TI flag resolves simultaneous attempts to allocate the same TI value. BIT DESCRIPTION 8 TI flag TI Flag: 0 1 The message is sent from the side that originates the TI. The message is sent to the side that originates the TI. 7 6 TI value 5 4 3 2 1
TI value: From 0 to 6 The value 7 is reserved for future extension.
The transaction identifier for Mobility Management and Radio Resources messages use the predefined value 0 ( it is the skip indicator in this case ).
5.1.3
MESSAGE TYPE
The message type IE and its use are defined in 3GPP TS 24.007. The bit 7 (and possibly bit 8, see below), N(SD), is reserved for the sequencing of the Mobility Management and Connection Management messages to avoid duplication of messages. The skip indicator and send sequence number N(SD) are not checked by the BSS. Note: Case of BCCH and AGCH/PCH messages
The messages are structured as standard L3 messages plus one octet in front, the L2 pseudo length octet, and a rest octet part at the end.

NOTE:
5.2
GENERAL DESCRIPTION FOR NON STANDARD L3 MESSAGE
In some protocols, the structure of part or all of the messages might not always follow the standard L3 message structure. As a design rule, this should be consistent for a given protocol, direction and lower layer SAP.
5.2.1
Messages using the short header format
The messages are structured either as standard L3 messages, or in the so-called short header format. The value of the 8th bit (bit 1 of octet 1) of the link layer PDU distinguishes the two cases. In the case of the short header, the L3 message is the same bit string as the link layer PDU, and has a fixed length. The following description includes the 2-bit link layer header. 5.2.1.1 The first octet
Bits 1 and 2 are the link layer header. Bit 2 of octet 1 is set to "0", and bit 1 is reserved for the link layer. A protocol discriminator is the first part of the message (starting bit 8 of octet 1). The protocol discriminator field may have different lengths. The following protocol discriminator is defined: 0 RR.
All additional PD defined for this structure shall start by 1. The reception of a message with bit 8 of octet 1 set to 1 when expecting a message structured as defined by this clause shall be diagnosed as an unknown PD, and the message ignored. As a design rule, a message type field should follow the PD, and of a length such that the PD and the message type fit in the 6 first bits of the message. 5.2.1.2 The rest of the message
The rest of the structure is not more constrained.

SUB PARAMETER DEFINITION MA length depends on the relative frequency span of the frequencies in the cell allocation frequency list MA Ci: Mobile Allocation RF Channel i - the RF channels represented in the MA C i bit fields are those which in the "Cell Channel Description" information element are coded with "1" in the CA ARFCN N bit fields. MA Ci = CA ARFCN N(i) i = 1,2...NF
(NF = Number of Frequencies in the CA frequency list). For a RF channel belonging to the Mobile Allocation the MA C i bit is coded with a "1", for a RF channel not belonging to the Mobile Allocation, the MA C i bit is coded with a "0". If NF mod 8 0 then bits NF to 8n in octet 3 must be coded with a "0" in each. PARAMETER ORIGIN - ACTION ON PARAMETER The parameter is transparent for the BTS when received from the BSC. At the BSC site the following actions have to be performed Mobile Allocation Stored and Updated during system reconfiguration.

(1) Sent to phase 2 MS, only during location updating procedure. (2) Only sent to the MS which supports the GPRS services. (3) There is only one Use Case in which the BTS sends Channel Release message with Group Channel Description OIE and Cell Channel Description OIE: If a MS VGCS originator/talker performs an intercell handover towards a non hopping channel, and if in the target cell the corresponding group call channel is a hopping one. When the talker stops talking, if the BTS sends Channel Release message with Group Channel Description OIE but without Cell Channel Description OIE, the former talker cannot understand this message.

Bits 8 of octet 1 are spare bits (coded as 0). SUB PARAMETER DEFINITION EPC_mode The EPC mode field indicates whether the assigned channel(s) shall be in enhanced power control (EPC) mode. It is only valid for channels on which EPC may be used. It is coded as follows: 0 Channel(s) not in EPC mode 1 Channel(s) in EPC mode, not used FPC_EPC The FPC_EPC field (octet 2) has different interpretation depending on the channel mode of the assigned channed(s) and the value of the EPC mode field. If the channel mode is such that fast power control (FPC) may be used, the FPC_EPC field indicates whether Fast Measurement Reporting and Power Control mechanism is used. It is coded as follows: 0 FPC not in use 1 FPC in use, not used If the channel mode is such that EPC may be used and the EPC mode field indicates that the channel is in EPC mode, the FPC_EPC field indicates whether EPC shall be used for uplink power control. It is coded as follows: 0 EPC not in use for uplink power control, not used 1 EPC in use for uplink power control, not used
Power level: binary representation of the power control level (0 to 31)

SUB PARAMETER DEFINITION RA Random Number When set to the value 0111 1111, the RA information of the Request Reference IE indicates that an Extended RA field may be included in the IA Rest Octets. The mobile station shall use the information in the Extended RA field to identify the Immediate Assignment message corresponding to an EGPRS Packet Channel Request message. T1', T3, T2 Starting time information element T1': binary representation of (FN div 1326) mod 32 T3: " " FN mod 51 T2: " " FN mod 26 FN mod 42432 = 51 x ((T3 - T2) mod 26) + T3 + 51 x 26 x T1' In case the IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT message conveys a downlink TBF establishment, the RA bits are set to 101xxxxx to avoid that a MS considers the message as an answer to a request sent on the RACH channel. PARAMETER ORIGIN - ACTION ON PARAMETER RA: This information comes from the MS in Channel Required message addressed by the BTS. It is used to allow the MS to recognise its own request among those sent by the BSC at the same time. T1', T3, T2 are also stored from Channel Required message Time of arrival (in terms of Frame Number) of the Access Burst given by the BTS in the Channel Required message.

6.39.3.2.2 Mobile allocation DEFINITION To provide the part of the RF channels belonging to the cell allocation which is used in the Mobile Station hopping sequence. BIT DESCRIPTION 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1
MA length depends on the relative frequency span of the frequencies in the cell allocation frequency list MA Ci: Mobile Allocation RF channel i - the RF channels represented in the MA Ci bit fields are those which in the cell channel description information element are coded with "1" in the CA ARFCN N bit fields. MA Ci = CA ARFCN N(i) i = 1,2...NF
(NF = Number of Frequencies in the CA frequency list). For a RF channel belonging to the Mobile Allocation the MA Ci bit is coded with a "1", for a RF channel not belonging to the Mobile Allocation, the MA Ci bit is coded with a "0". For example, if NF = 12, then Mobile Allocation is coded as follow: Length of Mobile alloc. Contents = 2 0 MAC 8 0 MAC 7 0 MAC 6 0 MAC 5 MAC 12 MAC 4 MAC 11 MAC 3 MAC 10 MAC 2 MAC 9 MAC 1
6.39.3.3 Frequency short list The Frequency Short List information element is element of 64 bits length. This element is encoded exactly as the Frequency List information element, except that it has a fixed length instead of a variable length and does not contain a length indicator and that it shall not be encoded in bitmap 0 format.

ORIG-ARFCN : This field encodes the ARFCN of one frequency belonging to the set. This value is also used as the origin of the bit map to generate all the other frequencies. RRFCN N: Relative radio frequency channel number N - For an RF channel with ARFCN = (ORIG-ARFCN + N) mod 1024 belonging to the set, then RRFCN N bit is coded as '1'. - For an RF channel with ARFCN = (ORIG-ARFCN + N) mod 1024 not belonging to the set, then RRFCN N bit is coded as '0'. W : Each non null W(k) allows to compute, together with some previous W(i) the ARFCN F(k) of a frequency in the set (see 3GPP TS 44.018 for computation formulas).

6.53.3 SI 2TER REST OCTETS TYPE: M DEFINITION If UTRAN FDD cell reselection is enabled and FDD UTRAN frequencies are declared in the BSC, this parameter contains optional information on UTRAN cells to be monitored by the MS in the cell. Otherwise, it consists of spare bits only and is used to allow the introduction of new information on the BCCH in later phases.
BIT DESCRIPTION 1) If one UARFCN frequency is present in SI2ter instance, the SI2ter Rest Octet IE is filled as follows: 8 L|H = 1 7 6 5 4 SI2ter_INDEX 3 2 1 1

Note:
If the SI2ter message describes 3G neighbour cells, the last SI 2ter instance always contains the 3G measurement parameters description. The preceding SI 2ter instances provide the MS with the UARFCN frequency description. Thus, if there are n UARFCN frequencies in the FDD_ARFCN_LIST given by the OMC, the number of SI 2ter instances is n + 1.
2) If the 3G measurement parameters are described in the SI2ter instance, the SI 2ter Rest Octet IE is filled as follows:
8 L|H = 1

This info element includes : - Paging channel restructuring that indicates if the paging channel is restructured. - Call priority that indicates the highest priority associated with VBS/VGCS calls in a cell. - NLN(Notification List Number) and NLN status : They are managed on a per cell basis. There will be one Notification List ( of messages) per cell. When ever there is a modification in the Notification List due to a new voice group call (a new Notification message is added because a new VGCS call establishment) the NLN is incremented ( modulo 4). The NLN status is not touched. When there is change in the content of the Notification message or Notification List due to existing voice group calls (there is a voice group call removed from the list or there is a change in at least one Notification message,) the NLN is not changed the NLN status is changed.
VBS/VGCS options Indicates whether inband notifications and/or inband pagings are enabled in the cell ;
DTM Support Indicates whether DTM is supported in the cell. RAC Routing Area Code of the RA to which the serving cell belongs MAX_LAPDm Maximum number of LAPDm frames on which a layer 3 can be segmented into and be sent on the main DCCH. It is coded as follows: Bit 210 000 Any message segmented in up to 5 LAPDm frames. 001 Any message segmented in up to 6 LAPDm frames. 010 Any message segmented in up to 7 LAPDm frames. 011 Any message segmented in up to 8 LAPDm frames. 100 Any message segmented in up to 9 LAPDm frames. 101 Any message segmented in up to 10 LAPDm frames. 110 Any message segmented in up to 11 LAPDm frames. 111 Any message segmented in up to 12 LAPDm frames.
BAND_INDICATOR The band indicator for 1800 and 1900 associates the ARFCN channel numbers to the DCS 1800 or to the DCS 1900 band, respectively. The most recently received band indicator value is valid for the serving cell. If the PLMN_FREQUENCY_BANDS is set to GSM850 DCS1900, then the BAND_INDICATOR is set to HIGH, else set to LOW.

6.63.2 BCCH_CHANGE_MARK TYPE: M DEFINITION This field indicates the status of the information on BCCH. The value of this field may be changed when information on BCCH is changed, see 3GPP TS 44.060. BIT DESCRIPTION SUB PARAMETER DEFINITION PARAMETER ORIGIN - ACTION ON PARAMETER The value of this field shall be increased by 1 each time the information content is changed on BCCH, but shall not be incremented when SI 13 only is modified.
6.63.3 SI_CHANGE_FIELD TYPE: M DEFINITION SI_CHANGE_FIELD value indicates which SI among type 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8 (, 9) has changed at the last BCCH_CHANGE_MARK indication. Range 0 to 15: BIT DESCRIPTION 0 Update of unspecified SI message or SI messages: this is used in case of update of several different SI types (e.g. SI 16 & SI 17 modifications when LSA_IDs are configured in the cell) Update of SI 1 message Update of SI 2, SI 2bis or SI 2ter message Update of SI 3, SI 4, SI 7, SI 8, SI 16 or SI 17 message Update of SI 9 message (not used, since SI 9 is not supported) Update of SI 18 or SI20 message (not used, since SI 18 and SI 20 are not supported) Update of SI 19 message(not used, since SI 19 is not supported) Update of SI 15 message(not used, since SI 15 is not supported)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7
All other values shall be interpreted as 'update of unknown SI message type'. SUB PARAMETER DEFINITION PARAMETER ORIGIN - ACTION ON PARAMETER Upon changes of the contents of the RACH Control Parameters information element alone, it would be sufficient that the SI_CHANGE_FIELD parameter indicates only one of the SI message containing the RACH Control Parameters (e.g. SI 1). But, in practice, the BSC only increments the BCCH_CHANGE_MARK value and does not update the SI_CHANGE_FIELD parameter. So the MS will get the last updated SI message(s) once more. When there is no PBCCH configured in the cell, the BSC shall notify the MFS of any BCCH_CHANGE_MARK modification with the new SI_CHANGE_FIELD value.

6.63.5 GPRS MOBILE ALLOCATION TYPE: O DEFINITION This information element is the representation of the GPRS mobile allocation provided in SI13 message. It is identified by MA_NUMBER = 14 when referenced from a packet assignment message. The GPRS Mobile Allocation information element defines a set of radio frequency channels and a hopping sequence number (HSN), which may be allocated to a mobile station to define its channel configuration. There are two alternative ways to encode the GPRS mobile allocation, using the MA_BITMAP or the ARFCN index list. The MA_BITMAP is used by the Alcatel BSS. BIT DESCRIPTION < GPRS Mobile Allocation IE > ::= < HSN : bit (6) > {0|1 < RFL number list : < RFL number list struct > > } { 0 < MA_LENGTH : bit (6) > < MA_BITMAP : bit (val(MA_LENGTH) + 1) > |1 {0|1 < ARFCN index list : < ARFCN index list struct > > } } ; SUB PARAMETER DEFINITION HSN (6 bit field) This field is the binary representation of the hopping sequence number, Range: 0 to 63. RFL number list (construction) This construction is a list specifying the referenced set of reference frequency lists for this information element. Note that the Alcatel BSS does not use this construction. MA_BITMAP (variable length, 1 to 64 bit, field) This field is a bitmap representing the radio frequency channels belonging to the GPRS mobile allocation. The number of bit positions in MA_BITMAP shall equal NF (NF: Number of Frequencies). The first bit position in MA_BITMAP corresponds to ARFCN_INDEX = NF-1, the last position corresponds to ARFCN_INDEX = 0. Each bit position is coded: 0 the corresponding radio frequency channel does not belong to the GPRS mobile allocation; 1 the corresponding radio frequency channel belongs to the GPRS mobile allocation.

PARAMETER ORIGIN - ACTION ON PARAMETER RA: This information comes from the MS in Channel Required message addressed by the BTS. It is used to allow the MS to recognise its own request among those sent by the BSC at the same time. T1', T3, T2 are also stored from Channel Required message Time of arrival (in terms of Frame Number) of the Access Burst given by the BTS in the Channel Required message.

RADIO INTERFACE MESSAGES FOR SMSCB MESSAGE BLOCKS

NAME INTERFACE CHANNEL/ USAGE 3GPP-REF RADIO CBCH 24.012 MESSAGE BLOCKS ABIS BTS Transparent A
FUNCTION
A CB message consists of a 88 octets of information. The 88 octet block is segmented into four 22 octet blocks. A 1 octet Block type is added as a header to each 22 octet block. The overall blocks are thus 23 octets in length. The message blocks are sent on the CBCH by the network to all the Mobile Stations which are in idle mode in the cell. SMSCB message carries one page of CB information message (made of up to 15 pages) which may come from different sources and gives information (eg. traffic or weather reports) to the MS of a geographical area.
