9.1 Overview of 1X/DO Dynamic Refarming

This section describes the functions, specifications, impact, Acronyms and Abbreviations, and
availability of the 1X/DO Dynamic Refarming feature.
Functions
With the 1X/DO Dynamic Refarming feature, the 1X and EV-DO refarming carriers can be
configured on the BSS. The BSC processes 1X and EV-DO services on refarming carriers during
alternative time periods. When 1X services are idle, refarming carriers process EV-DO services.
When EV-DO services are idle, refarming carriers process 1X services. The 1X/DO Dynamic
Refarming feature improves the frequency spectrum usage and resolves the problem of absolute
radio frequency channel number (ARFCN) insufficiency faced by telecom operators.
Specifications
There are no related specifications.
Impact
l Reparenting a BTS configured with refarming carriers may fail if the refarming function
cannot be enabled on the target BSC because the target BSC does not support the 1X/DO
Dynamic Refarming feature or the value of the resource control item in the license is
insufficient.
l The call drop rate may increase if the Refarming carrier forcibly releases subscribers during
service transfer.

9.2 Principles of 1X/DO Dynamic Refarming

With the development of mobile networks, telecom operators face the problem of absolute radio
frequency channel number (ARFCN) insufficiency when promoting EV-DO services. The 1X/
DO Dynamic Refarming feature introduces refarming carriers on which the BSC processes 1X
and EV-DO services during alternative time periods. This effectively resolves the problem of
ARFCN insufficiency faced by telecom operators. This section describes the usage scenarios
and principles of the 1X/DO Dynamic Refarming feature.
1X/DO Dynamic Refarming Usage Scenarios

The 1X/EV-DO Dynamic Refarming feature is applicable when 1X and EV-DO traffic peak
hours occur at different times of a day and when multi-carrier networking is used.
The 1X/EV-DO Dynamic Refarming feature must be used in an area covered by both 1X and
EV-DO networks. As shown in Figure 9-1, if ARFCN F2 is configured as a refarming carrier,
F2 must carry both 1X and EV-DO services in the same area. This ensures that the refarming
carrier operating at F2 can provide the same coverage for 1X and EV-DO services at different
time periods to avoid service coverage holes.
There must be 1X and EV-DO basic carriers in areas covered by refarming carriers. Basic carriers
are also referred to as non-refarming carriers. In Figure 9-1, F1 is a 1X basic carrier, and F3 is
an EV-DO basic carrier.

Figure 9-1 1X/DO Dynamic Refarming ARFCN distribution
1X/DO Dynamic Refarming Implementation

1X/DO Dynamic Refarming aims at improving ARFCN usage. With the 1X/EV-DO Dynamic
Refarming feature, the same ARFCN can carry 1X and EV-DO services in the same area during
alternative time periods. Based on the preset 1X and EV-DO service start time points, the BSS
converts a 1X refarming carrier to an EV-DO refarming carrier or vice versa to implement 1X
and EV-DO dynamic refarming. Figure 9-2 shows the 1X and EV-DO dynamic refarming
procedure. Figure 9-2 uses the conversion from a 1X refarming carrier to an EV-DO refarming
carrier as an example. Converting an EV-DO refarming carrier to a 1X refarming carrier is the
same as converting a 1X refarming carrier to an EV-DO refarming carrier. When the services
carried by a refarming carrier are being processed, the refarming carrier functions as a basic
carrier.

Figure 9-2 Converting a 1X refarming carrier to an EV-DO refarming carrier
1. When a refarming carrier processes 1X services, and the BAM time reaches the time
specified by EV-DO Service Start Time on a Refarming Carrier, the BSC starts to
convert a 1X refarming carrier to an EV-DO refarming carrier.
2. The BSC starts the timer specified by 1X Subscriber-Initiated Release Buffering Time
on Refarming Carrier. Before the timer expires, the BSC and ATs perform the following
operations:

l The BSC sets the administrative state of the 1X refarming carrier to Shutting down.
Then, ATs on the 1X refarming carrier can only initiate soft handoffs. Newly accessed
ATs are directly assigned to 1X non-refarming carriers.
l The BSC starts to update the 1X channel list.
l ATs on the 1X refarming carrier release the call legs established on the 1X refarming
carrier.
3. The BSC determines whether the timer specified by 1X Subscriber-Initiated Release
Buffering Time on Refarming Carrier expires.
l If the timer expires, the BSC performs the operation in 4.
l If the timer has not expired, the BSC waits until the timer expires.
4. The BSC starts the timer specified by 1X Hard Handoff Release Buffering Time on
Refarming Carrier. Before the timer expires, the BSC initiates hard handoffs for ATs that
have not released legs from the refarming 1X carrier to available 1X basic carriers.
5. The BSC determines whether the timer specified by 1X Hard Handoff Release Buffering
Time on Refarming Carrier expires.
l If the timer expires, the BSC forcibly releases all ATs on the 1X refarming carrier and
performs the operation in 6.
l If the timer has not expired, the BSC waits until the timer expires.
6. The BSC removes a 1X refarming carrier and then adds an EV-DO refarming carrier to
change Service Type of the refarming carrier to EV-DO. Then, the refarming carrier
becomes an EV-DO refarming carrier.

l Precautions
– BTSs in co-PN (OTSR/OTCR), MTMR, and HPB networking do not support the 1X/
DO Dynamic Refarming feature.

– BTSs with UBRIs do not support the 1X/DO Dynamic Refarming feature.
– The BTS3606E or BTS3606AE not configured with the CRDM does not support the
1X/DO Dynamic Refarming feature.
– Refarming carriers cannot be configured as pilot beacon carriers, HDC carriers, HTC
carriers, dedicated carriers, or carriers supporting the Intelligent Power Amplifier
Control feature.
– There must be 1X or EV-DO basic carriers in a sector configured with refarming
carriers.
– An existing carrier can be changed to a refarming carrier only when refarming carriers
process 1X or EV-DO services during the configured time periods.
– External carriers cannot be configured as refarming carriers.
Procedure
Step 1 Configure refarming carriers on the BSC.
l To add a 1X or EV-DO refarming carrier, run the ADD CDMACH command with Whether
This Is a Refarming Carrier set to Yes on the service maintenance system.
l To change an existing carrier to a refarming carrier, run the MOD CDMACH with Whether
This Is a Refarming Carrier changed to Yes on the service maintenance system.
NOTE
l When adding a 1X refarming carrier, you must add an EV-DO carrier operating at the same ARFCN
and in the same sector as the 1X refarming carrier.
l If you change an existing carrier to a 1X or EV-DO refarming carrier, you must add an EV-DO or 1X
refarming carrier so that the two carriers can work as a pair.
Step 2 Run the MOD BSCRSM command on the service maintenance system to modify the 1X or EV-
DO service start time.

on the service maintenance system.
2. (Optional) Add a CRDM. For example, run the ADD CBTSCRDM command to add
CRDM 0.
NOTE
This step is not required if the BTS3606E or BTS3606AE has been configured with a CRDM.
3. Add a pair of refarming carriers by running the ADD
CBTSRFMSECTORCARRIER command on the service maintenance system.
Step 4 Configure the refarming carrier working mode on the BSC.

Run the MOD BSCRSM command with Working Mode of a Refarming Carrier set to
Working in Time-Based Mode on the service maintenance system.
Step 5 Verify the 1X/DO Dynamic Refarming feature by performing the following operations on the
service maintenance system:
1. Run the LST CDMACH command to verify that Whether This Is a Refarming
Carrier has been set to Yes.
2. Run the LST BSCRSM command to verify that Working Mode of a Refarming
Carrier has been set to Working in Time-Based Mode.
