Depending on the connection type of the BTS, the BSS can have the following states:
Mixed mode BSS:

The BSS network contains both TDM BTSes and IP over Ethernet (IPoEth) BTSes.
Full IP over Ethernet BSS:
The BSS network contains only IP over Ethernet (IPoEth) BTSes
The following figures shows the generic configuration.

Figure 2-1 Mixed mode BSS
By using the mixed mode BSS, there is no need of switching at the same time all the
BTSes to an IP mode, allowing a smooth introduction of the IP transport in the BSS.
This mixed mode allows the BSS to handle at the same time TDM BTSes and IP BTSes,
so the process of switching the BTSes to an IP mode can be performed step by step.

Figure 2-2 Full IP over Ethernet BSS mode
In Full IP over Eternet BSS there are only IP over Ethernet (IPoEth) BTSes (BTS are
equipped with SUM-X boards). In this mode, the BTS telecom flow is no more
transmitted to the TC or MFS through the BSC, instead the transmission is made directly
through the BSS IP network backbone.
In the Full IP over Ethernet BSS mode the IP flows can be separated as follows:

Description
Overview
The Support of 1400 TRX / 7 CCP (6300 Erlangs) feature allows the increase of the
MxBSC capacity by adding two more CCP boards on ATCA shelf without changing the
capacity of the boards compared to the B11 values (200 TRX/CCP). The additional 2
CCP boards are inserted in the 2 free slots in the Mx BSC ATCA Shelf.
Inserting these new boards allows adding two new BSC configurations: configuration 6 to
support 1200 TRX and configuration 7 to support 1400 TRX.
The extension to 1400 TRX is possible if BSS is in pure TDM (with TPv3 or TP3I4
boards) or IP mode. If BSS is in:
pure TDM mode with TPv3, then the maximum supported capacity is 4500 erlangs
pure TDM mode with TP3I4 (TP-STM1-IP), then the maximum capacity depends on
the number of Atermux configured as CS
IP and A signaling or A User Plane in TDM or IP are activated, then the supported
capacity is 6300 erlangs with limitations.
Abis/Ater flexibility
This additional option is commercially linked and included in the Support of 1400 TRX /
7 CCP (6300 Erlangs) feature.
It allows flexible assignment of E1 links between Abis and Ater. New maximum number
of E1 ABIS will be 250, except in case of STM1 Clock synchronization when the new
maximum number will be 252. LIU board supports both E1 ATER and E1 ABIS. Before
changing E1 links from Abis to Ater or reverse, the operator must take care to have no
ongoing traffic on the Abis and Atermux impacted.
In case of BSC IP mode and only Ethernet BTS there is no E1 use and the maximum
number of E1 Abis is not relevant.
It is supported from MxBSC configuration 6 and 7 and it requires the following features
activated:
A signaling over IP
Full AUPoIP. This means that Full AUPoIP mode is activated and the TC is no longer
used so no more Ater CS are needed.
In IP BSS transport mode, with full AUPoIP mode, this feature will support IPoE1 Abis
mode.
It is allowed with STM1 on MxBSC. The same type of file as the STM1 configuration
file will be used to configure Abis/Ater flexibility. For flexible LIU port number the
purpose is to affect each LIU port number as ABIS or ATER in configuring the

corresponding Abis/Ater_HWAY_TP as connected to LIU-E1 or, in the specific context of

STM1, as connected to STM1 VC12 E1. The Transmission Termination points
configuration file shall contain the configuration of all equipped
ABIS_HWAY_TP/ATER_HWAY_TP.
If this option is activated, then:
Mx BSC reduction is possible only from configuration 7 to 6 and the extension is only
possible from configuration 6 to 7. Reduction to an inferior configuration will result
in an error. Before BSC reduction, the operator should check the number of cells (see
cell limitation) to be in accordance with the requested BSC configuration type (No
check done in BSC)
Disabling the AUPoIP architecture is not allowed

IPoE1 feature is supported
BSS transport mode change on BSC is allowed from TDM to IP and reverse.
Change E1 transport mode from IPoE1 to TDM or reverse is allowed.
Removal of cell limitation
The maximum number of (own) cells will be 700 for BSC configuration 6 and BSC
configuration 7. The maximum number of (own) cells for BSC configuration 1, 2, 3, 4
and 5 are the same as in B11.
Removal of extra time slots limitation
Increased from 2000 to proposed maximum of 4000 extra timeslots in BSC.
Hardware Coverage
Overview
Support of 1400 TRX / 7 CCP (6300 Erlangs) feature is available with TPv3 or
TP-STM1-IP.
For the Abis/Ater flexibility option, the Mx BSC must carry TPV3i4 with TPIP (JAXIP4)
supporting Full AUPoIP, Mixed AUPoIP and IPoE1.

Description
Overview
IP over E1 permits the use of IP packaging of traffic and signaling data over E1 Abis
cables used between BTSes and BSC.
This feature is intended for the networks that are designed to use the IP protocol on the
Ater interface (IP backbone for the Core Network) but want to keep the E1 Abis cables
between BTS and MX BSC.
Also this feature can be a cost efficient solution for the networks that have a growing
traffic (CS or PS) and still uses the G2 BSC. Upgrading the G2 BSC to handle more
traffic can be more expensive than replacing the G2 BSC with a MX BSC.

Description

Description
Overview
VAMOS (Voice services over Adaptive Multi-rate channels on One Slot) allows
multiplexing of two users simultaneously on the same physical resource in the circuit
switched mode both in downlink and in uplink, using the same timeslot number, ARFCN
and TDMA frame number. Hence, a basic physical channel capable of VAMOS supports
up to 4 TCH channels along with their associated control channels (FACCH and
SACCH).
In DL the BTS transmits simultaneously to 2 MSs on the same timeslot and frequency
using two different training sequences (one for each MS) and with Adaptive-QPSK
modulation (variant of QPSK allowing flexible power control for the two users), which
allows to double the throughput compared to legacy GMSK.
One AQPSK symbol corresponds to a pair of bits where each bit belongs to a different
sub-channel.

How to Provide E1 Clock Out from BTS for NodeB

Synchronization
Overview
Description
Overview
The NodeB does not have an accurate autonomous clock system, especially in IP mode,
where the it uses PDP (Packet Data Protocol) and IEEE 1588v2 to obtain the required
frequency accuracy. That is why, in the case of collocated BTSs and IP NodeBs, the BTS
will provide a G704 E1 signal synchronized from the local oscillator on the secondary
Abis port that will be connected to the NodeB.
Figure 6-1 The NodeB synchronization principle
The NodeB will be in charge of supervising the new synchronization line.

Description
Overview
This feature enables the optical Abis connectivity for IPoEth BTS on both macro
(SUMX) and distributed configurations (SUMX 19"). This is done through the GSM New
Class (GNC) daughter board, on the SUMX. The GNC daughter board is already
available on SUMX 19" for MC-RRH configurations, where it provides optical links
between the PSU and the RRHs. In macro configuration, the GNC will be installed onsite.
The electrical/optical conversion is performed by a device called SFP ("Small
Form-factor Pluggable transceiver"). This device can be hot plugged in the GNC daughter
board and the BTS NEM allows the operator to select the Abis interface type: Ethernet
electrical or Ethernet optical.

Description
Overview
This feature aims to fulfill the need for increased EGPRS traffic. In order to limit the
number of additional GP boards / MFS shelf, a significant increase of the GP board
capacity is required. Therefore, the Boosted GP boards have an incresed capacity by the
maximum possible factor (at least by a factor of 4). Since the spare boards needs to be
able to replace a Boosted GP, it is necessary that the spare board is always a Boosted GP.
Therefore, the MFSs that have Boosted GPs will have fixed spare boards.

LTE to GSM Handover
Description
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
The 3GPP has defined the VCC (Voice Call Continuity) which provides the capability to
transfer the path of an existing voice call between a 3GPP CS system (GSM/UMTS) and
IMS (IP multimedia subsystem), and vice versa.
The SRVCC (Single Radio Voice Call Continuity) is the 3GPP way to perform a handover
for voice calls from LTE (PS domain) to GSM (CS domain).
Three scenarios are presented:
without DTM
with DTM but without DTM HO support
with DTM HO support.
DTM is supported in ALU BSS while DTM HO is not. The third scenario is then not
relevant for ALU BSS.
This feature implements a mean for the BSS to reject LTEto GSM handovers, based upon
the target cell load (similar to what has been already implemented for 3G to GSM
handovers); this is the load based filtering procedure.
With the introduction of this feature, the BSC either accepts or rejects a handover from a
LTE network, based on its own traffic load and the handover cause. If the load exceeds
the threshold defined for the LTE network, only emergency handovers are allowed.

The feature is supported by 9130 BSC Evolution only.

Overview
The A User Plane over IP feature is available if the BSS is connected to a NGN
(MSC-Server and MGW) core network. Going from legacy TDM to IP Networks and
implementing the NGN concept means that both User and Control planes are managed
separately through IP.
As far as the A Interface is concerned, the A-Signalling over IP (B11 feature) already
splits User Plane/Control Plane on the A Interface and allows to manage A signalling over
IP and the User Plane being still carried over TDM. The A User Plane over IP (B12
feature) completes the picture and allows to manage the A User Plane over IP.

Overview
With the Multi Carrier Modules Alcatel-Lucent introduces a new technique to further
reduce the power consumption.
Normally a power amplifier is designed for the highest output power requested. The
amplifier gets here a certain supply voltage where it is by design most efficient. A
standard amplifier design provides only one supply voltage.
But in most of the cases the amplifier is used in partly or even low load conditions where
the amplifier is visibly less efficient and consumes more power than necessary.
Alcatel-Lucent provides therefore a new innovative technique to enhance the amplifier
efficiency also in low traffic situations.

Description
Overview
Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) is a network protocol used to detect faults

between two endpoints over a particular link. In an IP BSS network architecture, IP Abis
traffic is often aggregated from BTS sites in several points of concentration (POCs) of an
access network, before reaching a central IP gateway, which is the starting point of a
secured IP backbone towards TC, BSC, and MFS. The network access can be a layer 2 or
a layer 3 access network. In most of the cases, it is not owned by the mobile operator, and
Abis is backhauled through leased lines services. BFD is a tool to monitor the transport
layer of the Abis through non managed transport network. The BFD IP address is used by
the "next hop" router which implement the BFD protocol The address is configured via
the BTS NEM and is retrieved by the OMC via through SNMP. If the network access
does not provide path resiliency capability , BFD can be used as trigger of path
switchover between a primary and a secondary route.
Hardware Coverage
Overview
This feature is supported only by BTS 9100 (MBI3/MBI5, Outdoor) equipped with
SUMX board.
Feature Activation
Overview

To activate this feature:
From the Alcatel-Lucent Base Station - BTS NEM User Guide window follow the
menu path: Configuration -> IP... -> BFD IP Address The "BFD Responder IP
Address" window opens
Enter the required BFD IP Address and click on [OK].
The default value is 0.0.0.0 and means that BFD is not activated; that value indicates that
the operator does not provide any IP address yet and is not displayed on the OMC. The
BFD IP address must be different from the BTS IP address.

Description
Overview
The aim of this feature is to distribute the security functions over the BSS subsystems as
well as their interactions.
The security strategy for the BSS takes into account the following aspects:
The need for network element protection

A first level of protection is to secure write accesses to telecom and O&M network
elements.
A second level of protection is to secure read access for sensitive data.
A third level of protection would be to secure everything, meaning read accesses
whatever the data flow.
The need for network protection (data flow sensitivity)
Network protection is not to protect the network, but to protect data flows going
through the network against dishonest users with network access. The solution is to
use secured VPN tunnels, via to the IPsec protocol. The BTS supports such IPsec
tunnels. Other network elements rely on customer central site IPsec gateways.
The NE location (central or remote sites are differentiated).
As opposed to customer central sites, where only customer authorized people are
present, remote sites are easily accessible to non authorized people. In the BSS,
remote sites are, in most cases, BTS sites. Therefore, the BTS has the support of the
IPsec and the 802.1x protocol for Ethernet port access control. The 802.1x protocol
forbids unauthorized clients from using the Ethernet ports of a server machine.
This feature includes several solutions and technologies for enhancing the security for
inter network elements communications, such as:
IP Security (IPSec)
IP Security Gateway Authentication
Radius Server Authentication

Description
Overview
The Network Element Manager for a BTS (BTS NEM) is a software package used for
managing, maintaining and commissioning a BTS.
For IP transport, there are two BTS connection types:
Local connection
Remote connection
Local Connection
Local connection can be done via front panel NEM connector on the SUM board (which
needs to open the NE door with a key).
From this point, the PC-NEM is named Local PC-NEM.
Remote Connection
This is possible from anywhere within the network, as far as the routing / firewall allows.
A remote connection can also be on a switch port physically located near the BTS,
which needs the port to be enabled and physical accessible.
In the following figure,the wording PC-NEM is used for content relative to the local
and the remote PC-NEM.

Note: A new parameter 'NEM-IP-Forwarding-inside-BTS (True/False)', exists in the

BSC Terminal in order to enable/disable routing to the NEM in each BTS.
Local and remote PC-NEM use IP to connect BTS.
There are two ways to connect the PC-NEM:
Serial connection to the BTS

Ethernet connection.
Serial connection to a BTS

Local IP connection using IP/PPP over RS232 for SUMA/P only.
Ethernet connection

Description
Overview
With IP BSS, the frequency synchronization of the BTS (i.e. the automatic recalibration
of the local oscillator frequency on a high accuracy transmission clock source) can be
achieved through NTP: a stratum 1 NTP server delivers NTP messages to the BTS.
The key value of the synchronization through NTP is that this method does not induce
any requirement on the transmission backbone.
Hardware Coverage
Overview
The feature is not NE dependent.
Feature Activation

The feature is optional. For specific information about the feature functionality, refer to

Description
Overview
Using a Layer 2 transport network means that, despite the BSS, network elements (BTS,
BSC, TC, MFS) will still exchange IP packets. The underlying functional architecture of
the transport network can be seen as a single LAN, in fact, an Ethernet LAN. Taking into
account the potential distance between network elements, this is based on "Extended Area
LAN" concepts such the MetroEthernet. The primary impact on the IP-based transport is
that all IP addresses of the network elements belong to the same IP subnet, and no IP
router (Layer 3) is needed between two network elements.
Hardware Coverage
Overview
This feature is supported only in:
9130 BSC Evolution:

IPoE1 with new TP board TPIP module
IPoEth no new upgrade needed
9130 MFS Evolution

Overview
Description
Overview
The feature provides a mechanism for building redundant network interfaces to guard
against NICs, cables, switches or other networking hardware failures. It also provides a
method to do maintenance on system hardware without losing network connectivity in IP
environments, based on Solaris IPMP.
This feature is compatible with Multiple LAN Interfaces OMC-R feature.
For each network interface, the built-in algorithm will try to find, if possible, an unused
network interface on a different network board to pair it up with, and set both up in a
multipathing IP group, link detection based.
The following interfaces are excluded from IPMP setup:
loopback interface (lo0)

inter hardware domain interfaces on Mxxx machines (sppp,clsn)
non configured network interfaces (IP=0.0.0.0)

interfaces used to communicate with 2540 StorageTeck disk array
already using IPMP interfaces

Ater GCH Equity per GP is a new mechanism that forces the reallocation of GCH from
some TRX to other TRX, at GP level.
The main goal of Ater GCH equity per GP is to use the Ater GCH resource in a more
efficient way. The following aspects are covered:
A reactive mode corrects big differences in the GCH allocation or real GCH
congestion
An anticipation mode which increases the GCH allocation to TRX for which the real
GCH usage is near congestion.

the defined cell set measured

the start and end time for the measurement campaign
the reported counter set.
The implementation of the feature determined important improvements with respect to

the following aspects:
OBSAL GUI is modified to allow the configuration per BSC of the reported counters
list, in CSV format
OBSAL is modified to filter the counters recorded in the CSV output file, according
to the configuration created in OBSAL GUI
ODMC is modified to accept more than 40 object instances per BSC and even if the
concerned PM type is already configured in PMC.

Description
Overview
The objective of Packet Downlink Power Control is to optimize the BTS output power
while maintaining quality in the ongoing packet connections.
The power reduction can be:
Constant, defined by a P0 parameter. The average power level used by PS traffic in a

cell can be decreased by the constant value P0, and therefore reduce the PS
contribution to the interference.
The value of P0 is configurable within a range of 030 db with a 2db step. The
constant downlink power control reduction is applicable to GMSK and 8PSK
modulations
Dynamic. The BTS limits its output power on blocks addressed to a particular MS
(USF or RLC blocks) to levels between (BCCH level - P0dB) and (BCCH level P0dB - 10dB)
The dynamic downlink power control is applicable to GMSK and 8PSK modulations
used in EGPRS. For a given PDCH shared by different TBFs, the power may change
every RLC/MAC radio block (i.e. every 20 ms).

Overview
Description
Overview
The feature provides a new script which counts the number of TREs and sectors that are
in out of service (OOS) state and attempts to restore them without manual intervention.
The script works as follows:
when it encounters a TRE in OOS state, it resets the corresponding board

when it encounters a sector (RA) in OOS state, it locks and unlocks the related board.
The script can be run at three levels:
at OMC-R level - counts and attempts to restore all the OOS TREs and Sectors
corresponding to all the BTSs of all the BSCs declared in OMC-R
at BSC level - counts and attempts to restore all the OOS TREs and Sectors
corresponding to all the BTSs of a particular BSC
at BTS level - counts and attempts to restore all the OOS TREs and Sectors
corresponding to a particular BTS.

Server

....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Overview
Description
Overview
The OMC-R does a periodical check with NTP server and synchronization will be
triggered in case of a high deviation. If the time deviation is greater than defined
threshold, OMC-R generates an alarm instead of synchronizing to NTP server and the
forwards it to NMC. Only the existing OMC-R synchronization is stopped and alarms are
raised.
The NTP server and deviation threshold is configured in OMC-R. The threshold can be
configured under the file /etc/inet/ntp-plus.conf. Before the configuration, the OMC-R
(Master/HMI/Agent where the NTP configuration is done) should be declared as ExNE in
order to receive the alarms. After configuration ntp-plus service should be enabled. On
Master, if the threshold is reached, only ntp will be disabled, ntp-plus will remain active;
on Agents/HMIs, both will be disabled. The alarm will be cleared when both ntp and
ntp-plus services are set enabled by the operator assuming that the required actions are
taken care.
