This parameter specifies when an MS disconnects a call if the MS unsuccessfully decodes the
SACCH message. For details of this parameter, see GSM Rec. 0408 and 05.08.
Once a dedicated channel is assigned to the MS, the counter S is enabled and the initial value
is set to this parameter value.
Each time an SACCH message is not decoded, the counter S decreases by 1. Each time an
SACCH message is correctly decoded, the counter S increases by 2.When the counter S is
equal to 0, the downlink radio link is considered as failed.Therefore, when the voice or data
quality is degraded to an unacceptable situation and it cannot be improved through power
control or channel handover, the connection is to be re-established or released.

4 Times

This parameter specifies the maximum number of Channel Request messages that can be
sent by an MS in an immediate assignment procedure.
After the MS initiates the immediate assignment procedure, it always listens to the messages
on the BCCH and all the common control channels (CCCHs) in the CCCH group to which the
MS belongs.If the MS does not receive Immediate Assignment messages or Immediate
Assignment Extend messages, the MS re-sends Channel Request messages at a specified
interval.

23

Error control is performed on the I frame sent over the LAPDm layer between the BTS and MS.
If the MS detects errors in an I frame, the BTS should resend the I frame.This parameter
indicates the maximum retransmission times of frame I on the SDCCH.
For the function of N200 and the effect of the parameter, see the descriptions of the T200
SDCCH (5 ms) parameter.

52

This parameter specifies the value of Radio Link Timeout under half-rate AMR calls. For
details, see Radio Link Timeout (SACCH period(480ms)).

64

This parameter specifies the value of Radio Link Timeout under full-rate AMR calls. For details,
see Radio Link Timeout (SACCH period(480ms)).

85

This parameter is used to adjust candidate target cells for directed retry.
When target cells are selected during direct retry, only the cells whose loads are smaller than
or equal to the Directed Retry Load Access Threshold are selected as candidate target cells.

This parameter specifies the length of timer T3150. For details, see GSM Rec. 08.58 and
04.08.
When the BTS sends physical information to the MS, the BTS starts the timer T3105.If the
timer T3105 expires before BTS receives the SAMB frame from MS, BTS resends physical
information to MS and restarts the timer T3105. The maximum times for resending physical
information is Ny1.

30

This parameter specifies the maximum number of Physical information retransmissions.


Assume that the maximum number is Ny1. If the number of retransmissions exceeds Ny1
before the BTS receives any correct SAMB frame from the MS, the BTS sends the BSC a
connection failure message, which can also be a handover failure message. After receiving
the message, the BSC releases the newly assigned dedicated channel and stops the timer
T3105.
During asynchronous handover, the MS constantly sends handover access bursts to the BTS.
Usually, the Timer T3124 is set to 320 ms. Upon detecting the bursts, the BTS sends a
Physical information message to the MS over the main DCCH/FACCH and sends the
MSG_ABIS_HO_DETECT message to the BSC. Meanwhile, the timer T3105 starts.
The Physical information containing information about different physical layers guarantees
correct MS access. If the timer T3105 expires before the BTS receives the SAMB frame from
the MS, the BTS resends the Physical information message to the MS.
For details, see GSM Rec. 08.58 and 04.08.

The value of this parameter corresponds to multiplying quality level 0 to 7 by 10. An


emergency handover can be triggered only when the uplink receive quality of the MS is
greater than the value of this parameter.

emergency handover can be triggered only when the downlink receive quality of the MS is
greater than the value of this parameter.

60

This parameter specifies the uplink quality threshold of an emergency handover. An


emergency handover due to bad quality is triggered when the uplink receive quality is greater
than or equal to the UL Qual. Threshold.
When an emergency handover is triggered, an inter-cell handover should be preferentially
selected. An intra-cell handover, however, is triggered if no candidate cell is available and if
intra-cell handovers are allowed.

60

This parameter specifies the downlink receive quality threshold of an emergency handover.
An emergency handover is triggered when the downlink receive quality is greater than or
equal to the DL Qual. Threshold.
When an emergency handover is triggered, an inter-cell handover should be preferentially
selected. An intra-cell handover, however, is triggered if no candidate cell is available and if
intra-cell handovers are allowed.

No

This parameter specifies whether an MS can use the optimum transmit power instead of the
maximum transmit power to access the new channel after a handover. The purpose is to
minimize system interference and improve signal quality.

No

This parameter specifies whether the inter-system handover and cell reselection are allowed
The inter-system handover includes the handover from a 2G cell to the adjacent 3G cell and
from a 3G cell to the adjacent 2G cell.
When this parameter is set to Yes, the ECSC parameter should also be set to Yes.

Yes

This parameter specifies whether to enable the PBGT (POWER BUDGET) handover algorithm.
Based on the path loss, the BSC uses the PBGT handover algorithm to search for a desired cell
in real time and decides whether a handover should be performed. The cell must have less
path loss and meet specific requirements. To avoid ping-pong handovers, the PBGT handover
can be performed only on TCHs between the cells of the same layer and hierarchy. The PBGT
handover cannot be performed on SDCCHs.

No

This parameter specifies whether an MS that moves fast in a micro cell can be handed over to
a macro cell. If this parameter is set to Yes, the MS that moves fast in a micro cell can be
handed over to a macro cell, thus reducing the number of handovers. It is recommended that
this handover be applied only in special areas such as highways to reduce the CPU load. The
fast-moving micro-to-macro cell handover algorithm is used only in special conditions.

No

This parameter specifies whether a traffic load-sharing handover is enabled.


The load handover helps to reduce cell congestion, improve success rate of channel
assignment, and balance the traffic load among cells, thus improving the network
performance. The load handover functions between the TCHs within one BSC or the TCHs in
the cells of the same layer.
The load handover is used as an emergency measure instead of a primary measure to adjust
abnormal traffic burst in partial areas. If load handovers occur frequently in a partial area, the
cell and TRX configuration of BTSs and the network layout should be adjusted.

No

This parameter specifies whether a handover between signaling channels is enabled.

The Cell Reselect Penalty Time (PT for short) is used to ensure the safety and validity of cell
reselection because it helps to avoid frequent cell reselection. For details, see GSM Rec. 05.08
and 04.08.
This parameter applies to only GSM Phase II MSs.

This parameter specifies the temporary correction of C2. This parameter is valid only before
the penalty time of cell reselection expires. For details, see GSM Rec. 0508 and 0408.
This parameter applies only to GSM Phase II MSs.

No

This parameter Cell Bar Qualify (CBQ) is valid only for cell selection. It is invalid for cell
reselection.

Cell Reselect Parameters Indication (PI for short), sent on the broadcast channel, indicates
whether CRO, TO, and PT are used.
Actually, the MS is informed whether C2-based cell reselection is performed. For details, see
GSM Rec. 0408 and 0508.In addition, a least interval of 5s is required for C2-based cell
reselection to avoid frequent cell reselection.
When PI is set to 1, the MS obtains the value of C2 based on the broadcast system
information and determines whether a cell is reselected. When PI is set to 0, that is, C2
equals C1, the MS determines whether a cell is reselected based on the value of C1.

6dB

This parameter is used to determine whether cell reselection is performed between different
LACs. This parameter can prevent frequent location update, thus lowering the possibility of
losing paging messages. For details, see the description of the cell reselection hysteresis.

20

This parameter specifies the length of the timer for periodic location update.
In the VLR, a regular location update timer is defined. When the location update period
decreases, the service performance is improved. When the signaling traffic of the network
increases, the usage of radio resources drops.In addition, when the location update period
decreases, the MS power consumption increases, and the average standby time is greatly
shortened.When setting this parameter, take into consideration the processing capability of
the MSC and BSC, the load on the A interface, Abis interface, Um interface, HLR, and VLR.
Generally, a larger value is adopted in continuous coverage in urban areas and a smaller
value in suburbs, rural areas, or blind spots.

2 Multiframe Period

This parameter specifies the number of multi-frames in a cycle on the paging channel, that is,
the number of paging sub-channels on a specific paging channel.
In actual situation, an MS monitors only the associated paging sub-channel. For details, see
GSM Rec. 05.02 and 05.08.
If the value of this parameter increases, the number of paging sub-channels in a cell
increases, thus reducing the number of MSs served by each paging sub-channel and
prolonging the average service time of the MS battery. For details about the calculation of the
paging group, see GSM Rec. 05.02. But the delay of paging messages increases, and the
system performance deteriorates as the value of this parameter increases.
This parameter should be set on the basis that the paging channel is not overloaded. In
addition, the value of the parameter should be as small as possible. The load of the paging
channels should be periodically measured on the running network. The value of this
parameter should be adjusted on the basis of the load.
A paging message must be sent simultaneously in all the cells in an LAC. Thus, the capacity
of the paging channel in a cell, that is, the number of paging sub-channels in a cell, must be
the same as or similar to that in other cells of an LAC.

This parameter specifies the number of CCCH blocks reserved for the AGCH. After the CCCH is
configured, this parameter actually indicates the CCCH usage for AGCH and PCH.
This parameter affects the paging response time of an MS and the system performance.

11111111

This parameter specifies the NCCs to be reported by the MSs in a cell. This parameter is an
information element (IE) in the system information type 2 and 6 messages.
If a bit in the value of this parameter is set to 1, the MS reports the corresponding
measurement report to the BTS. The value of this parameter has a byte (eight bits). Each bit
maps with an NCC (0-7) and the most significant bit corresponds to NCC 7. If bit N is 0, the MS
does not measure the cell level of NCC N.

No

This parameter specifies the cell bar access (CBA).


Value 0 indicates that cell access is allowed.
Value 1 indicates that cell access is not allowed.

This parameter specifies whether to enable the Attach-detach allowed (ATT) function. For
different cells in the same LAC, their ATTs must be the same.
If this parameter is set to Yes, network connection is not provided after the MS is powered off,
thus saving the network processing time and network resources.

10

This parameter specifies the timer carried by the WaitIndcation information element when the
BSC sends an immediate assignment reject message to an MS.
After the MS receives the immediate assignment reject message, the MS makes another
attempt to access the network after the timer expires.

1000

This parameter specifies the connection release delay timer that is used to delay the channel
deactivation after the main signaling link is disconnected, and the purpose is to reserve a
period of time for repeated link disconnections.
The timer T311 is initiated when the BSC receives the REL_IND message from the BTS. the RF
CHAN REL message is sent to the BTS after the timer expires.

27000

The BSC sends a ChannelRelease message and enables the timer T3109. If the BSC receives
the ReleaseIndication message before the timer T3109 stops; the BSC deactivates the
channel, if the timer T3109 expires.

10000

This timer is used to set the time of waiting a handover success message after a handover
command is sent in an outgoing BSC handover. If the timer expires, the outgoing BSC
handover fails.

10000

This timer is used to set the time of waiting a handover complete message after a handover
request acknowledgment message is sent by the BSC in 2G/3G handover or inter-BSC
handover. If the timer expires, The MS reports a Clear REQ message.

10000

After the BSC sends a handover command, the timer T3107 is initiated. Before the timer
T3107 expires, the timer T3107 stops if the BSC receives a handover complete message. After
the timer T3107 expires, the BSC sends a handover failure message.

10000

In an outgoing BSC handover, after the BSC sends a handover request message, the timer T7
is initiated. Before the timer T7 expires, the timer T7 stops if the BSC receives a handover
acknowledgment message. After the timer T7 expires, the BSC sends an outgoing BSC
handover failure message.

3000

This parameter specifies the timer used in the immediate assignment procedure.
The T3101 is started when the BSC sends an IMM ASS message to the BTS. If the BSC
receives an EST IND message before T3101 expires, T3101 is stopped; if T3101 expires before
the BSC receives an EST IND message, the BSS releases the seized SDCCH.

85

This parameter specifies the threshold used for interference measurement.


The BSS measures the uplink quality of the radio channels occupied by MSs, calculates and
reports the interference level on each of the idle channels. This helps the BSC to assign
channels.
According to the strength of interference signals, the interference signals are classified into
six interference levels. The values of these levels are called Interf. Band Thresholds. The BTS
determines the interference level based on these thresholds. The BTS, then, sends a radio
resource indication message to the BSC. The BSC compares the busy and idle channels
reported in the measurement report and in the radio resource indication message to
determine whether to perform a handover. The interference band measurement result
provides reference for threshold setting and interference analysis. For details, see GSM Rec.
08.08, 08.58, and 12.21.
If the difference between the values of two thresholds are too small, the interference is too
obvious. If the difference between the values of two thresholds are too great, the interference
is not reflected.

10dB

When the BCCH frequency of a cell is listed in the neighbor cells for the MS, the negative
offset of C2 is calculated before timer T expires.

500ms

This parameter specifies the timer set for the MS to wait for the TBF release after receiving
the last data block.
When the MS receives the last RLC data block carrying the last block flag (FBI=1) and
confirms that all the RLC data blocks on the TBF are received, the MS sends the Packet
Downlink Ack/Nack message carrying the final acknowledgement flag (FAI=1) and starts
T3192 at the same time.
If T3192 expires, the MS releases the TBF resources and monitors paging channels. During
the TBF release process, if the MS is in half-duplex mode and receives the Packet Uplink
Assignment message, the MS responds immediately.
If the MS does not receive the Packet Uplink Assignment message during the TBF release
process, the MS enters the packet idle mode. If the MS is in dual transfer mode, it enters the
dedicated mode.

Assignment message. After the MS sends the Packet Resource Request or Packet Downlink
Ack/Nack message carrying Channel Request Description, T3168 is started to wait for the
Packet Uplink Assignment message from the network.
If the MS receives the Packet Uplink Assignment message before T3168 expires, T3168 is
reset. Otherwise, the MS initiates the PS access procedure again for four times. If the Packet
Uplink Assignment message is still not received, the MS regards that this uplink TBF
establishment has failed.

high, it is recommended this parameter be set to 1.
RET

T200S
The AMR coding has strong anti-interference capabilities. Under
the same frame erasure rate (FER), the AMR coding supports a
low C/I ratio compared with non-AMR coding. If the AMR function
is enabled, the speech quality is improved. The value of AHR
Radio Link Timeout(SACCH period (480ms)) in AMR coding mode
can be a little more than that in non-AMR coding mode.
AHRLT
The AMR coding has strong anti-interference capabilities. Under
the same frame erasure rate (FER), the AMR coding supports a
low C/I ratio compared with non-AMR coding. If the AMR function
is enabled, the speech quality is improved. The value of AFR
Radio Link Timeout(SACCH period (480ms)) in AMR coding mode
can be a little more than that in non-AMR coding mode.
ARLT
If the value of the parameter is too high, the cells with heavy
loads are selected as candidate target cells so that the handover
does not make sense. If the value of the parameter is too low, it is
difficult to select candidate target cells.

DRT

The physical information is sent over the FACCH. Four TDMA


frames are sent each time at the interval of 18 ms. If the value of
T3105 is smaller than or equal to 18 ms, the BTS needs to
retransmit the physical information to the MS when the timer
T3105 expires for the first time.If the transmission of the physical
information over the FACCH is not complete, the expiration is
invalid because the time is shorter than an FACCH
period.Considering the previous factors, 20 ms is the reasonable
minimum value for this parameter. At present, the default value
of this parameter is 70 ms.
T3105

The value of this parameter can be increased when handover


becomes slow or the handover success rate decreases because of
clock problems or poor transmission.An MS can be handed over
only when Max Resend Times of Phy Info multiplied by Radio Link
Timeout is greater than the interval between EST IND and HO
DETECT (120-180 ms). Otherwise, the handover fails.

NY1
The setting of this parameter affects the triggering of BQ
handover of AMR HR calls. If it is set to a too small value, the
uplink BQ handover is easily triggered.

QURH

The setting of this parameter affects the triggering of BQ


handover of AMR HR calls. If it is set to a too small value, the
downlink BQ handover is easily triggered.

QDRH

The setting of this parameter affects the triggering of BQ


handover of AMR FR calls. If it is set to a too small value, the
uplink BQ handover is easily triggered.

QURF

The setting of this parameter affects the triggering of BQ


handover of AMR FR calls. If it is set to a too small value, the
downlink BQ handover is easily triggered.

QDRF

The setting of this parameter affects the triggering of BQ


handover of non-AMR calls. If it is set to a lower value, the uplink
BQ handover is easily triggered.
QUR

The setting of this parameter affects the triggering of BQ


handover of non-AMR calls. If it is set to a lower value, the
downlink BQ handover is easily triggered.
QDR
If this parameter is set to Yes, the MS does not use the maximum
transmit power, and thus the handover success rate is decreased,
but the network interference is reduced.

POPT

None
ISHO

Huawei recommends that the PBGT handover algorithm be


enabled. Proper use of PBGT handovers helps to reduce cross
coverage and to avoid co-channel interference and adjacent
channel interference.
EPB

It is recommended that this handover be applied only in special


areas such as highways to reduce the CPU load. The fast-moving
micro-to-macro cell handover algorithm is used only in special
conditions.
FMT

If this parameter is set to YES, extra interference may be


introduced when aggressive frequency reuse pattern is used.

TRHO
When the authentication and ciphering procedures are enabled
on the existing network, this parameter can be set to Yes.

ESD

PET

TEO

The value of CBQ affects the access of the MS to the system.

QUA

The MS obtains C1 and C2 of the serving cell at a minimum


interval of 5s. When necessary, the MS re-calculates C1 and C2
value of all non-serving cells (adjacent cells). The MS constantly
checks whether a cell reselection is required by referring to
following conditions:
Whether the path loss (C1) of the current serving cell drops below
0 within 5s.If yes, the path loss is too large.
C2 of an appropriate non-serving cell exceeds that of the serving
cell in 5s and the following conditions are met:
The C2 of a new cell in another LAC minus CRH (broadcast in
the system information 3 and 4 of the serving cell) exceeds C2 of
the serving cell in 5s.
A cell reselection is performed in the last 15s, and the C2 of the
new cell minus 5 dB constantly exceeds the C2 of the serving cell
in 5s.
A better cell exists if the above conditions are met.If a better cell
exists, the MS reselects a cell,and does not go to the previous cell
within 5s.

PI
An MS does not respond to pagings during location update. Thus,
the connection rate drops if cell reselection is performed.
If this parameter is set to a too small value, ping-pong location
updates occur and the signaling load on the SDCCH increases.
If this parameter is set to a too great value, the cell that the MS
camps on for a long time may not be the best after the LA
changes.
HYS

It is recommended that you select a greater value, such as 16, 20,


or 25, in the area with heavy traffic, but a smaller value, such as 2
or 3, in the area with light traffic.
To properly specify the value of this parameter, it is necessary to
perform overall and long-term measurement on the entities
involved regarding their processing capability and traffic, such as
the processing capability of the MSC and BSC, and the load on the
A interface, Abis interface, Um interface, HLR, and VLR.
The location update period in the MSC must be greater than that
in the BSC.
In the GSM system, it is possible that a powered-on MS is
identified as implicit off-line if the MS sends no location update
request within a long period.
When the MS reselects another cell (in the same LAC), the MS is
restarted through T3212 timeout if the T3212 of the new cell
differs from that of the original cell.
When this parameter differs in the cells of the same LAC, it is
possible that the MS is identified as implicit off-line if the MS
sends no location update request for a long period. In this case,
system plays "The subscriber you dial is power off." even though
the called MS is on.
In an LAC, the value of this parameter should be the same in all
cells.
PER

The larger this parameter is set, the larger the number of paging
sub-channels in a cell and the smaller the number of MSs on each
paging sub-channel. Setting this parameter larger can prolong the
average service life of MS batteries but increase the delay of
paging messages and reduce the system performance.

MFR

None
AG

The most significant three bits of BSIC for all cells map with the
NCC. NCC Permitted should be set properly to avoid too many call
drops.

PLMN

The CBA function applies to special conditions. If this parameter is


set to 1 and Cell Bar Quality (CBQ) is set to 0, only handovers are
allowed in a cell, and direct access of an MS is not allowed. This
condition applies to a dual-network coverage cell. For a common
cell, this parameter should be set to 0.
The value of CBA affects the network access of an MS.

On receiving some consecutive measurement reports, the


network calculates the average value of the downlink signal
quality. This average value indicates the radio environment of the
MS. When you configure this parameter, you must consider the

If you do not want a fast-moving MS to access a micro cell, this
parameter should be set to a high value when the coverage area
of the micro cell is large.

GPET

None
GTEO

If this parameter is set to a higher value, the TBF resources


(including TFI and timeslots) are reserved for a long time. If no
downlink data needs to be sent, many resources are not used but
occupied for a long time.
If the timer is set to a smaller value, the MS releases the TBF
resources within a shorter period. However, if the network sends
new downlink PDU data packets, the network must initiate a
paging or immediate assignment procedure. Therefore, the
downlink TBF establishment takes a longer period.
If the download data packets from the network are not received
and T3192 does not expire, the network directly sends a Packet
Downlink Assignment message to establish a new downlink TBF,
thus shortening the TBF establishment time.
On one hand, the value of the T3192 timer depends on the
average transmission interval between two successive downlink
data.
On the other hand, you need to comprehensively analyze the
traffic models of the cell and take the service load of the cell into
consideration. When network resources are sufficient, that is the
GPRS congestion rate is low, the T3192 should be set to a large
value, shortening the time to establish new TBFs and improving
data transmission rate.
T3192

If the timer is set to a lower value, the MS can detect the TBF
establishment failure within a shorter period. If the TBF
establishment fails, the average delay of packet access is short,
but the success rate of TBF establishment in bad radio
environment decreases. In addition, the small timer value
increases the probability of the retransmission of the packet
access request, thus increasing the probability of reassignment
by the PCU and wasting system resources.
If the timer is set to a higher value, the MS takes a longer period
to detect the TBF establishment failure. If the TBF establishment
fails, the average delay of packet access is long, but the success
rate of TBF establishment in bad radio environment increases.

adjustment threshold is the threshold of RQI. The RQI indicates the carrier-tointerference ratio (CIR) of the call. If RQI equals 1, the CIR is 0.5 dB; if RQI equals 2, the
CIR is 1 dB; and so forth. Since there are multiple coding rates in the ACS, there is an
adjustment threshold and an adjustment hysteresis between the neighboring coding
rates.
This parameter specifies the set of active coding rates. The active coding set (ACS) is a
set of coding rates currently available for calls. Use a BIT map to present the speech
coding rates contained in the ACS, wherein a BIT corresponds to a coding rate. If a bit is
1, the coding rate is included in the ACS. Otherwise, the ACS does not include the
coding rate. The value of this parameter has eight bits.

the MS on the SDCCH, the BSC does not report the message to the MSC immediately.

Instead, the BSC re-assigns radio channels and re-originates the assignment on the Um
interface. Thus the success rate of assignment can be increased.
Reassigning radio channels can be performed in the carriers with the same frequency
band or of different frequency bands.
If this parameter is set to Same Band, the frequency band of the preferentially
reassigned channel is the same as what is used before the reassignment.
If the parameter is set to Different Band, the frequency band of the preferentially
reassigned channel is different from what is used before the reassignment.

The channel activation and immediate assignment commands are sent at the same time
to accelerate the signaling processing rate, thus improving the response speed of the
network.
This parameter specifies whether to enable the Abis resource adjustment TCHH
function.
This parameter determines whether the BSC preferentially assigns a half-rate TCH to an
MS when the Abis resources are insufficient.
When this parameter is set to Yes, the BSC preferentially assigns a half-rate TCH to the
MS if the Abis resource load is higher than Flex Abis Prior Choose Abis Load Thred(%) or
than Fix Abis Prior Choose Abis Load Thred(%).

This parameter specifies whether to allow the enhanced multi-level precedence and
preemption (eMLPP) function. In eMLPP, the network can use different policies such as
queuing, preemption, and directed retry based on the priorities of different calls when
network resources are occupied.
If the Allow EMLPP is set to Yes, when preemption occurs, the MS with the lowest
priority performs handover, and the MS with higher priority seizes the idle channel after
handover. If the Allow EMLPP is set to No, a certain MS with lower priority releases the
channel, the MS with higher priority seizes the idle channel after release.
This parameter specifies whether to allow the reassignment function.
This parameter specifies the threshold for determining whether the MR about a TDD cell

During asynchronous handover, the MS constantly sends handover access bursts to the
BTS. Usually, the Timer T3124 is set to 320 ms. Upon detecting the bursts, the BTS
sends a Physical information message to the MS over the main DCCH/FACCH and sends
the MSG_ABIS_HO_DETECT message to the BSC. Meanwhile, the timer T3105 starts.
The Physical information containing information about different physical layers
guarantees correct MS access. If the timer T3105 expires before the BTS receives the
SAMB frame from the MS, the BTS resends the Physical information message to the MS.

can be triggered within the period defined by this parameter.

This parameter specifies the level step of the load handover from the OL subcell to the
UL subcell.
This parameter specifies the hierarchical handover period of the load handover from the
OL subcell to the UL subcell.
In Enhanced dualband If the channel seizure ratio of the UL subcell is lower than the UL
Subcell Lower Load Threshold, all the calls in the cell send handover requests at the
same time and the load on the BSC increases in a short time. Thus, congestion may
occur in the target cell and call drops may be caused. Through the hierarchical load
handover algorithm, the calls in the cell are handed over to the UL subcell by level.
This parameter specifies the period of load handover for each level.
This parameter specifies whether the load handover from the OL subcell to the UL
subcell is enabled.

For the enhanced dualband handover algorithm, the boundaries of the OL and UL
subcells are determined according to the relative value between the signal strength of
serving cell and that of the adjacent cell. Suppose the signal strength of serving cell is
SS(s) and the signal strength of the adjacent cell is SS(n). When SS(s) = SS(n), the
system considers that it is the boundary point of the UL subcell. When SS(s) - SS(n) >
Distance between Boundaries of UL And OL Subcells, it is the coverage area of the OL
subcell.
If the flow control level in the current system is greater than the value of this parameter,
the handover between the UL subcell and the OL subcell due to low or high UL subcell
load is not allowed.

If the channel seizure ratio of the UL subcell is greater than the value of this parameter,
the load handover period from the UL subcell to the OL subcell is decreased by the

some calls of the UL subcell is handed over to the OL subcell. Moreover, the MS that
sends the channel request message in the UL subcell is preferentially assigned to the OL
subcell.

processed over the channel request the UL subcell according to the UL Subcell Lower
Load Threshold. If the traffic load in the UL subcell is lower than the UL Subcell Lower
Load Threshold, the MS access to the OL subcell is preferentially assigned to the UL
subcell. This parameter is applied to the enhanced dualband cell.

3G better cell handover is triggered when the Ec/No of an adjacent 3G cell is greater
than Ec/No Threshold for Better 3G Cell HO during a period of time.
The level values 0 to 49 map to -24 dB to 0 dB.

3G better cell handover is triggered when the RSCP of an adjacent 3G cell is greater
than RSCP Threshold for Better 3G Cell HO during a period of time.The value of this
parameter ranges from 0 to 63 (corresponding to -110 dBm to -47 dBm).
If the Inter-RAT HO Preference parameter is set to Preference for 2G Cell By Threshold,
and if the receive level of the first candidate cell among 2G candidate cells is lower than

The value of this parameter ranges from 0 to 70, corresponding to RQ (receive quality
level 0-7) x 10.

This parameter specifies the hierarchical level step of the load handover from the OL
subcell to the UL subcell.
If the channel seizure ratio of the UL subcell is higher than the En Iuo Out Cell General
OverLoad Threshold, all the calls in the cell send handover requests at the same time
and the load on the BSC increases in a short time. Thus, congestion may occur in the
target cell and call drops may be caused. Through the hierarchical load handover
algorithm, the calls in the cell are handed over to the target cell by level.
This parameter specifies the period of load handover for each level.
If the channel seizure ratio of the UL subcell is greater than the value of this parameter,
the load handover period from the UL subcell to the OL subcell is decreased by the
value of Modified step length of UL load HO period per second on the basis of UL subcell
load hierarchical HO period, thus speeding up the load handover from the UL subcell to
the OL subcell.
If the channel seizure ratio of the UL subcell is greater than the value of this parameter,
some calls in the UL subcell are handed over to the OL subcell.

If the channel seizure ratio of the UL subcell is smaller than the value of this parameter,
some calls in the OL subcell are handed over to the UL subcell.
When deciding whether a call can be handed over from the UL subcell to the OL subcell,
the BSC determines whether the number of handover failures reaches the MaxRetry
Time after UtoO Fail. If the number reaches the MaxRetry Time after UtoO Fail, the UL
subcell to OL subcell handover is prohibited during the Penalty Time after UtoO HO Fail.
Otherwise, the UL subcell to OL subcell handover is allowed.
After an OL subcell to UL subcell handover fails, the call cannot be handed over from the
OL subcell to the UL subcell during the Penalty Time after OtoU HO Fail.

After a UL subcell to OL subcell handover fails, the call cannot be handed over from the
UL subcell to the OL subcell during the Penalty Time after UtoO HO Fail.

The OL subcell and the UL subcell have different transmit power. Therefore, the receive
level of the MS in the UL subcell is different from that in the OL subcell. This parameter
specifies the power that should be compensated for the OL subcell. The value of this
parameter should be the sum of these items: UO Amplifier Power Difference, Combiner

This parameter specifies whether the downlink receive quality is used as a decisive

This parameter specifies whether the downlink receive level is used as a decisive
condition for the concentric cell handover.

This parameter specifies whether the handover from the OL subcell to the UL subcell is
enabled.

This parameter specifies whether the handover from the UL subcell to the OL subcell is
enabled.

This parameter specifies the load threshold of the TIGHT BCCH handover. To trigger an
intra-cell TIGHT BCCH handover, the load of the non-BCCH frequencies should be higher
than the Load Threshold for TIGHT BCCH HO.

This parameter specifies the signal quality threshold of the TIGHT BCCH handover. To
trigger an intra-cell TIGHT BCCH handover from a TCH to a BCCH, the downlink receive
quality should be lower than the RX_QUAL Threshold for TIGHT BCCH HO.
This parameter specifies the K offset used in K ranking.
To reduce the ping-pong effect in an handover, you are advised to subtract K Bias from
the actual downlink receive level of the candidate cells before ranking their downlink
receive
level based
on the
K principle.
This parameter
specifies
the
expected uplink receive level on a new channel after an MS
is handed over to a new cell. This parameter is used for the MS Power Prediction after
HO. This parameter should be consistent with the UL RX_LEV Upper Threshold in Huawei
II power control algorithm, thus ensuring a relatively high uplink receive level on the
new channel after handover, increasing the transmit power of the MS, and avoiding call
drops caused by too low a uplink receive level.
The value of this parameter ranges from 0 to 63 (corresponding to -110 dBm to -47
dBm).
This parameter specifies the period in which penalty is performed on the adjacent cells
of the cell where a fast-moving MS is located. The adjacent cells must be located at the
Macro, Micro, or Pico layer other than the Umbrella layer.
If an MS is moving fast, the BSC performs penalty on the adjacent cells of the cell where
the MS is located. This parameter specifies the penalty value. Only when the MS is
located at the Umbrella layer and the adjacent cells are located at the Macro, Micro, or
Pico layer, penalty is performed.
This parameter is valid within only the Penalty Time on Fast Moving HO.
The two intra-cell handovers that occur during the period specified by this parameter
are regarded as consecutive handovers.

When the number of consecutive intra-cell handovers reaches the maximum allowed, a
timer is started to forbid the intra-cell handover.
Intra-cell handovers are allowed only when the timer expires.
This parameter determines the maximum number of consecutive intra-cell handovers
allowed.
If the interval of two continuous intra-cell handovers is shorter than a specified
threshold, the two handovers are regarded as consecutive handovers. If multiple
consecutive intra-cell handovers occur, the intra-cell handover is forbidden for a period.

The time threshold is calculated based on the cell radius (r) and the velocity (v). The
threshold equals 2r/v. If the time taken by an MS to pass a cell is smaller than this
threshold, the MS is regarded as moving fast. Otherwise, the MS is regarded as moving
slow.
According to the P/N criterion, if the MS fast passes N cells among the P micro cells, the
BSC starts to trigger a fast-moving micro-to-macro cell handover. This parameter
corresponds to N of the P/N criterion.

According to the P/N criterion, if the MS fast passes N cells among the P micro cells, the
BSC starts to trigger a fast-moving micro-to-macro cell handover. This parameter
corresponds to P of the P/N criterion.
In hierarchical load handover, the handover strip increases by one Load HO Step Level
for every Load HO Step Period, starting from the Edge HO DL RX_LEV Threshold. The
handovers are performed as such until all the calls whose receive levels are within the
range of (Edge HO DL RX_LEV Threshold, Edge HO DL RX_LEV Threshold + Load HO
Bandwidth) are handed off the current serving cell.

served by the cell may send handover requests simultaneously, and the load on the CPU
will increase rapidly as a consequence. In some cases, call drops may occur due to
traffic congestion in the cell. Therefore, the hierarchical handover algorithm for load

This parameter specifies the quality level offset of the interface handover of the AMR FR
service relative to non-AMR services or the AMR HR service (x 10). When determining
whether an interference handover should be triggered, the system compares the
receive quality of the MS minus the RXLEVOff with the handover threshold.
For the AMR calls, this parameter, together with RXQUALn, is used in interference
handover decision. An uplink interference handover is easily triggered if this parameter
is set to a small value.

This parameter specifies the downlink receive quality threshold of an emergency


handover. An emergency handover is triggered when the downlink receive quality is
greater than or equal to the DL Qual. Threshold.
When an emergency handover is triggered, an inter-cell handover should be
preferentially selected. An intra-cell handover, however, is triggered if no candidate cell
is available and if intra-cell handovers are allowed.
An emergency handover is triggered when TA is greater than or equal to the value of
this parameter.

This parameter is used as a switch to control the value determination method of


measurement reports. When this parameter is set to Open, if DTX is used, the SUB
values in the MR should be selected. Otherwise, the PULL values in the MR should be
selected.

This parameter specifies the value of the timer used for adjacent cell penalty after
handover failure due to data configuration.

This parameter specifies the value of the timer used for adjacent cell penalty after
handover failure due to the Um interface error.

handover failure due to cell congestion.

When the Report Type is EMR, this parameter specifies the filter length for the TCH
NBR_RCVD_BLOCK.
By setting this parameter, you can use the NBR_RCVD_BLOCK in multiple EMRs, thus
avoiding the case that the NBR_RCVD_BLOCK in a single EMR is inaccurate.
When the Report Type is EMR, this parameter specifies the filter length for the SDCCH
NBR_RCVD_BLOCK.
By setting this parameter, you can use the NBR_RCVD_BLOCK in multiple EMRs, thus
avoiding the case that the NBR_RCVD_BLOCK in a single EMR is inaccurate.
This parameter specifies the penalty time for AMR full rate to half rate (FR-to-HR)
handovers. Before the timer expires, no AMR FR-to-HR handover is allowed if the
previous FR-to-HR handover fails due to channel unavailability or channel mismatch.
The greater the value of this parameter is, the longer the penalty time after AMR TCHFH HO Fail is. In other words, triggering AMR handover becomes more difficult.
When the Report Type is EMR, this parameter specifies the length of the filter for the
TCH REP_QUANT.
By setting this parameter, you can use the REP_QUANT in multiple EMRs, thus avoiding
the case that the REP_QUANT in a single EMR is inaccurate.

shorter than the TCH seizure duration for the MS.

This parameter specifies the number of enhanced measurement reports used for
averaging the MEAN_BEP on the TCH.
By setting this parameter, you can use the MEAN_BEP in multiple EMRs, thus avoiding
the case that the MEAN_BEP in a single EMR is inaccurate.

where an emergency handover associated with bad signal quality is initiated. This
parameter is defined to avoid ping-pong handover and is valid only within the Penalty
Time after BQ HO.
After an emergency handover is performed due to bad quality, the receive level of the
serving cell is decreased by the penalty level. Thus, other cells are given higher priority
and handover to the serving cell is not allowed.
The penalty level values 0 through 63 map to -110 dBm to -47 dBm.
This parameter specifies the penalty level imposed on the target cell.
This parameter is valid only within the duration of the cell penalty time.
The penalty level values 0 through 63 map to -110 dBm to -47 dBm.
This parameter specifies the number of measurement reports used for averaging the
timing advance.
The TA value in a single MR may be inaccurate. You can set this parameter to average
the TA value in multiple MRs. The average TA value serves as the basis for handover
decision.
This parameter specifies the number of MRs used for averaging the signal strength in
neighbor cells. This parameter helps to avoid sharp drop of signal levels caused by
Raileigh Fading and to ensure correct handover decisions.

This parameter specifies the number of measurement reports used for averaging the
channel quality on the SDCCH.

This parameter specifies the number of measurement reports used for averaging the
signal strength on the SDCCH.

speech/data TCH signal strength.
This parameter helps to avoid sharp drop of signal levels caused by Raileigh Fading and
to ensure correct handover decisions.

This parameter specifies the number of measurement reports used for averaging the
speech/data TCH signal strength.

This parameter specifies the allowed number of consecutive MRs that are lost during
interpolation.
If the number of consecutive MRs that are lost is equal to or smaller than the value of
this parameter, the linear interpolation processing of the lost MRs is performed
according to two consecutive MRs that are lost.
If the number of consecutive MRs that are lost is greater than the value of this
parameter, all lost MRs are discarded, and calculations are made again when new MRs

parameter is used to select the candidate cells during directed retry. If the receive

level of an adjacent cell is greater than the value of this parameter, the adjacent cell
can be selected as a candidate cell for directed retry. The level values 0 through 63 map
to -110 dBm to -47 dBm.
This parameter specifies the frequency at which the BTS sends the preprocessed MR to
the BSC. After preprocessing the MRs, the BTS sends the preprocessed MRs to the BSC.
For example, if this parameter is set to Twice every second, the BTS sends preprocessed
MRs to the BSC every 0.5 second.

This parameter specifies whether the BS/MS power class should be transferred from the
BTS to the BSC.

This parameter specifies whether the BTS should send the original measurement report
to the BSC. If this parameter is set to Yes, the BTS should send the preprocessed MR
and the original MR to the BSC.
This parameter specifies whether the BTS should preprocess MRs. This parameter
determines whether transmit power is controlled by the BTS or by the BSC. This
parameter is set to YES if power control is performed by the BTS. This parameter is set
to NO if power control is performed by the BSC.
This parameter specifies whether an MS can use the optimum transmit power instead
of the maximum transmit power to access the new channel after a handover. The
purpose is to minimize system interference and improve signal quality.
This parameter specifies whether to penalize the target cell where a handover fails or
the serving cell where the TA is too great or the signal quality is too bad.
If the target cell is congested and an incoming cell handover fails, a penalty is
performed on the target cell to avoid the handover of the MS to the cell.
When the TA is great or the signal quality is bad, ping-pong handovers are likely to
occur. If a handover fails, a penalty should be performed on the serving cell. These kinds
of penalties can be performed on cells in one BSC or on external cells.
This parameter specifies whether to allow the inter-BSC SDCCH handover.
After the handover prohibition time for the initial access of an MS, the MS can be
handed over to another SDCCH in another BSC before a TCH is assigned.
This parameter specifies the minimum interval between two consecutive emergency
handovers. No emergency handover is allowed during the minimum interval.
When the conditions for an emergency handover are met, an emergency handover
timer is started. Another emergency handover decision can be made only when the
timer expires.
This parameter specifies the minimum interval between two consecutive handovers. No
handover is allowed during the minimum interval.
A timer starts after a handover is complete, and a subsequent handover is allowed only
after the timer expires. The value of this parameter is the length of the timer. The
parameter is used to avoid frequent handovers.
After a new SDCCH is assigned to an MS, the MS can be handed over to another channel
only if the time during which the MS occupies the SDCCH is longer than the period
specified by this parameter.

After a new TCH is assigned to an MS, the MS can be handed over to another channel
only if the time during which the MS occupies the TCH is longer than the period specified
by this parameter.

This parameter specifies the switch of the ATCB handover algorithm. The ATCB
handover algorithm can determine the coverage areas of the OL subcell and the UL
subcell and balance the load between the OL subcell and the UL subcell and between
the UL subcell and the adjacent subcell according to the actual networking. It can
decrease the interference, improve the conversation quality, and achieve the aggressive
frequency reuse of the OL subcell.

This parameter specifies the threshold of the half-rate TCH to full-rate TCH handover.
When an AMR call occupies a half-rate TCH, an intra-cell half-rate TCH to full-rate TCH
handover is triggered if the radio quality indication (RQI) remains lower than the
configured H2F HO Threshold for a predefined period. This parameter is used with the
Intracell F-H HO Stat Time and the Intracell F-H HO Last Time.
This parameter specifies the threshold of the full-rate TCH to half-rate TCH handover.
When an AMR call occupies a full-rate TCH, an intra-cell full-rate TCH to half-rate TCH

cells for handovers.
The level values 0 through 63 map to -110 dBm to -47 dBm.

This parameter specifies whether the inter-system handover and cell reselection are
allowed The inter-system handover includes the handover from a 2G cell to the adjacent
3G cell and from a 3G cell to the adjacent 2G cell.
When this parameter is set to Yes, the ECSC parameter should also be set to Yes.
According to the P/N criterion, if the adjacent cell keeps meeting the triggering
conditions of PBGT handover for N consecutive seconds within P seconds, a PBGT
handover is triggered and the MS is handed over to the adjacent cell.
This parameter corresponds to N of the P/N criterion.
According to the P/N criterion, if the adjacent cell keeps meeting the triggering
conditions of PBGT handover for N consecutive seconds within P seconds, a PBGT
handover is triggered and the MS is handed over to the adjacent cell.
This parameter corresponds to P of the P/N criterion.
According to the P/N criterion, if the signals in the candidate cell are better than those in
the serving cell for N consecutive seconds within P seconds, a layered hierarchical
handover is triggered.
This parameter corresponds to N of the P/N criterion.
According to the P/N criterion, if the signals in the candidate cell are better than those in
the serving cell for N consecutive seconds within P seconds, a layered hierarchical

dBm).
When the receive level is higher the receive level threshold but the transmission quality
is lower than the interference handover quality threshold, the interference handover is
triggered. In other words, the MS is interfered and needs to be handed over.
This parameter specifies whether the concentric cell handover is enabled. The
concentric cell is used to achieve the wide coverage of the UL subcell and the
aggressive frequency reuse of the OL subcell. The concentric cell handover can improve
system capacity and conversation quality. The concentric cell handover can be classified
into the UL subcell to OL subcell handover and the OL subcell to UL subcell handover.

This parameter specifies whether the time advance (TA) handover is enabled. The TA
handover determines whether the timing advance (TA) is higher than the predefined TA
threshold. When the TA is higher than the predefined TA threshold, a TA handover is
triggered. The TA is calculated based on the distance between the MS and the BTS. The
longer the distance is, the greater the TA value is.
This parameter specifies whether the bad quality (BQ) handover is enabled. Whether a
BQ handover should be enabled depends on the UL and DL transmission quality (BER).
When the UL signal quality or the DL signal quality exceeds the BQ handover threshold.
a BQ emergency handover is performed. A rise in BER may result from too low a signal
level or channel interference.
This parameter specifies whether to enable the edge handover algorithm. When an MS
makes a call at the edge of a cell, the call may drop if the receive level is too low. To
avoid such a call drop, an edge handover can be performed. When the UL receive level
of the serving cell is lower than the Edge HO UL RX_LEV Threshold or the DL receive
level of the serving cell is lower than the Edge HO DL RX_LEV Threshold, the MS is
handed over to a neighbor cell.
This parameter specifies whether the layered hierarchical handover is enabled. Cells are
set to different layers and different priorities to implement the layered hierarchical
handover. Then, based on the layers and priorities, calls are handed over to the cells
with high priority (priority is related to Layer of the Cell and Cell Priority).
This parameter specifies whether to enable the PBGT (POWER BUDGET) handover
algorithm. Based on the path loss, the BSC uses the PBGT handover algorithm to search
for a desired cell in real time and decides whether a handover should be performed. The
cell must have less path loss and meet specific requirements. To avoid ping-pong
handovers, the PBGT handover can be performed only on TCHs between the cells of the
same layer and hierarchy. The PBGT handover cannot be performed on SDCCHs.
This parameter specifies whether to enable the rapid level drop handover. When this
function is enabled, an MS can be handed over to a new cell before the occurrence call

assignment, and balance the traffic load among cells, thus improving the network
performance. The load handover functions between the TCHs within one BSC or the
TCHs in the cells of the same layer.
The load handover is used as an emergency measure instead of a primary measure to
adjust abnormal traffic burst in partial areas. If load handovers occur frequently in a
partial area, the cell and TRX configuration of BTSs and the network layout should be
adjusted.
This parameter specifies whether the intra-cell handover is enabled. Note: A forced
intra-cell handover is not subject to this parameter.

This parameter specifies whether a handover between signaling channels is enabled.

This parameter specifies whether to adjust the sequence of candidate cells. After the
sequence is adjusted, the handover within the same BSC/MSC takes priority.

The Cell Reselect Penalty Time (PT for short) is used to ensure the safety and validity of
cell reselection because it helps to avoid frequent cell reselection. For details, see GSM
Rec. 05.08 and 04.08.
This parameter applies to only GSM Phase II MSs.
This parameter specifies the temporary correction of C2. This parameter is valid only
before the penalty time of cell reselection expires. For details, see GSM Rec. 0508 and

When T increases, the interval between two adjacent channel requests increases, and
RACH conflicts decrease.
When S increases, the interval between two adjacent channel request messages
increases, and RACH conflicts decrease, thus improving the usage of AGCH and SDCCH.
The access time of the MS, however, is prolonged and the network performance is
decreased when T and S increase. Under normal conditions, an appropriate T value
should be used to ensure that S is as low as possible, and ensure that AGCH and SDCCH
are not overloaded.

When the BSC sends a ChannelRelease message and current call adopts the AMRHR
encoding mode, the timer T3109 (AMRHR) is initiated. If the BSC receives the
ReleaseIndication message before the T3109 (AMRHR) timer expires, the timer T3109
(AMRHR) stops; if the timer T3109 (AMRHR) expires, the BSC deactivates the channel.
When the BSC sends a ChannelRelease message and current call adopts the AMRFR
encoding mode, the timer T3109 (AMRFR) is initiated. If the BSC receives the
ReleaseIndication message before the T3109 (AMRFR) timer expires, the timer T3109
(AMRFR) stops; if the timer T3109 (AMRFR) expires, the BSC deactivates the channel.
In an intra-cell handover, the timer T3103C is initiated after the BSC receives the
HANDOVER COMMAND from target channel. The timer stops after the BSC receives the
HANDOVER COMPLETE message. After the timer expires, the BSC sends a handover
failure message.
This parameter specifies the timer carried by the WaitIndcation information element
when the BSC sends an immediate assignment reject message to an MS.
After the MS receives the immediate assignment reject message, the MS makes another
attempt to access the network after the timer expires.
For the call on the TCH in stable state, the timer is initiated when the ERROR
INDICATION, CONNECTION FAILURE INDICATION, and RELEASE INDICATION messages
are received, and the call reestablishment allowed is set to Yes for the cell where the
call is. Upon receipt of a CLEAR COMMAND message from the MSC, the timer stops. The
BSC sends a CLEAR REQUEST message after the timer expires.
This parameter specifies the connection release delay timer that is used to delay the
channel deactivation after the main signaling link is disconnected, and the purpose is to
reserve a period of time for repeated link disconnections.
The timer T311 is initiated when the BSC receives the REL_IND message from the BTS.
the RF CHAN REL message is sent to the BTS after the timer expires.
The BSC sends a ChannelRelease message and enables the timer T3109. If the BSC
receives the ReleaseIndication message before the timer T3109 stops; the BSC
deactivates the channel, if the timer T3109 expires.

This timer is used to set the time of waiting a handover success message after a
handover command is sent in an outgoing BSC handover. If the timer expires, the
outgoing BSC handover fails.

This timer is used to set the time of waiting a handover complete message after a
handover request acknowledgment message is sent by the BSC in 2G/3G handover or
inter-BSC handover. If the timer expires, The MS reports a Clear REQ message.

After the BSC sends a handover command, the timer T3107 is initiated. Before the timer
T3107 expires, the timer T3107 stops if the BSC receives a handover complete
message. After the timer T3107 expires, the BSC sends a handover failure message.
In an outgoing BSC handover, after the BSC sends a handover request message, the
timer T7 is initiated. Before the timer T7 expires, the timer T7 stops if the BSC receives a
handover acknowledgment message. After the timer T7 expires, the BSC sends an
outgoing BSC handover failure message.
In an intra-BSC handover, the timer T3103 is initiated after the BSC sends a handover
command. Before the timer T3103 expires, the timer stops if the BSC receives a
Handover Complete message. After the timer expires, the BSC sends a handover failure
message.
The timer is initiated after the BSC sends the CR message; if the BSC receives the CC
message before the timer expires, the timer stops; if the timer expires, the BSS releases
the seized SDCCH channel.

This parameter specifies the timer used in the immediate assignment procedure.
The T3101 is started when the BSC sends an IMM ASS message to the BTS. If the BSC
receives an EST IND message before T3101 expires, T3101 is stopped; if T3101 expires
before the BSC receives an EST IND message, the BSS releases the seized SDCCH.

This parameter specifies the maximum number of messages in the buffer of the cell
paging group packet when the Paging Messages Optimize at Abis Interface is turned on.

This parameter specifies the interval between two cell paging group packets, which is an
integral multiple of 50 ms.

The cell paging message packaging is determined by the system load. If the paging
message packaging timer is enabled, the paging messages are packaged according to
cells; otherwise, the paging messages are packaged according to the CPU.

This parameter specifies which type of interference band statistics algorithm to use, that
is, whether interference band statistics algorithm I or interference band statistics
algorithm II, when the frequency scanning function is enabled.
This parameter specifies whether the BSC reports a cell out-of-service alarm after the
cell is out of service.
When this parameter is set to Yes, the BSC reports a cell out-of-service alarm if the cell
is out of service.
When this parameter is set to No, the BSC does not report a cell out-of-service alarm if
the cell is out of service.
This parameter specifies whether the CS services preempt the sublink resources of PS
services of low-level BTS for cascaded BTSs if the current-level sublink cannot be

The cell is unstable after initialization; therefore, if the TRX aiding detection starts
immediately after cell initialization, a wrong decision might be made. In such a case, this
parameter is used to specify a delay.
This parameter specifies whether to allow flow control on the Abis interface.
The flow control function applies to the call management. When the BSS is congested,
some service requests are rejected or delayed so that the system load decreases. The
flow control on the Abis interface is mainly used to balance the system load caused by
Abis flow.
By default, flow control on the Abis interface is performed.
This parameter specifies whether to support the half-rate service in this cell. It is one of
the cell reselection parameters in the system information type 3 message.

This parameter specifies the maximum transmit power level of MSs. It is one of the cell
re-selection parameters in the system information type 3 message.
This parameter is used to control the transmit power of MSs. For details, see GSM Rec.
05.05.
In a GSM900 cell, the maximum power control level of the MS ranges from 0 to 19,
mapping to the following: {43,41,39,37,35,33,31,29,27,25,23,21,19,17,15,13,11,9,7,5}
respectively. Generally, the maximum transmit power supported by an MS is level 5
(mapping to 33 dBm). The minimum transmit power supported by an MS is level 19
(mapping to 5 dBm). Other transmit power levels are reserved for high-power MSs.
In a GSM1800 or GSM1900 cell, the maximum power control level of the MS ranges
from 0 to 31, mapping to the following:

This parameter is imported with the requested bandwidth when the assignment request
is sent. The actual bandwidth assigned to a user is the value of multiplying the
requested bandwidth by the ActGene.
The parameter here is the value of the actual ActGene multiplied by 10 in fact. When
the resources are allocated in practice, the total bandwidth is expanded by ten times.
The effect of the ActGene is from 0.5 to 1.

This parameter specifies the priority of the PS low priority service.

to the same routing area, the C2 value measured in the overlapped

area of two adjacent cells fluctuates greatly because of the fading feature of radio
channels. Therefore, the MS frequently performs cell reselection. The frequent cell
reselection not only increases the signaling flow on the network and affects the
utilization of radio resources, but also greatly affects the data transmission rate of the

This parameter should be set to a small value because the
SDCCH seizure duration is shorter than the TCH seizure

The greater the value of this parameter is, the longer the
penalty time after AMR TCHF-H HO Fail is. In other words,

This parameter helps to avoid sharp drop of signal levels
caused by Raileigh Fading and to ensure correct handover
decisions. When this parameter is set to a higher value, the
impact of sudden changes is reduced, and the system
response is delayed. Thus, the network performance is
degraded.

Measurement reports fail to be decoded correctly when the


signal strength in the serving cell is poor. When the number
of consecutive MRs that are lost is greater than the value of
this parameter, all previous measurement reports are
discarded and the handover may fail. Therefore, Huawei
recommends that this parameter be set to a great value for
emergency handovers.
If the receive level of an adjacent cell is greater than or
equal to the value of this parameter, this adjacent cell can
be selected as a candidate cell for directed retry.
This parameter should be set on the basis of the data rate
and flow on the Abis interface. If the preprocessed MR is
sent at a high frequency, the flow on the Abis interface is
increased.
When MR preprocessing is enabled, the UL and DL balance
