Upon detection of a RLF Warning in the BTS, the regular power control process on
the concerned dedicated channel is immediately suspended. Power control actions
due to RLF Warning have a higher priority than regular PC actions.
The first time a RLF Warning is detected in the BTS, the power control timers are
reset (if running), both MS_TXPWR and BS_TXPWR are set to their upper bounds
MS_TXPWR_MAX and BS_TXPWR_MAX (if not already set by the regular PC
process), respectively, and the corresponding timers for suspension of the regular
power control process are started with the value of the O&M parameter
P_CON_INTERVAL. The timers monitoring the confirmation of the commanded
power level are not used because of the irregular reception on the SACCH.
If MS_TXPWR or BS_TXPWR has already achieved its upper bound either on a
regular PC command or due to the first RLF Warning, the only action to be taken is to
restart timers for suspension of the regular power control process
(P_CON_INTERVAL), respectively. As a consequence in the case of repeated RLF
Warnings, both timers shall be restarted simultaneously.
Upon expiration of these timers the threshold comparison process of the respective
(uplink/downlink) power control process is resumed, provided that the call on the
dedicated channel is still in progress.

Exercise 1
Title: Radio Link Failure
Task
Given a cell with a problem area of 100 m extension (very low coverage only).
Assume that the SACCH messages cannot be decoded in this area.
What should be the starting value S0 of the Radio Link Failure counter S so that for a
MS in connected mode, passing this area with 36 km/h, the connection will not drop
due to radio link timeout?
