b> To allow the MS to synchronize to the frequency

Synchronization Bursts:
This burst is used for time synchronization of the MS
39Bit x 2=78 Bits :Are decoded to arrive 25-SCH control bits and that contains
the information of the NCC ,BCC & TDMA FN
64 Bits : Long training seq. of 64 Bits are identical for all BTS
Access Bursts:
This burst is used only for initial access by the MS to the BTS which applies 2 cases :
•For connection setup when idle state where a CHAN_REQ message is sent using
access burst
•For HO when MS send HND_ACC message.
CCCH is replaced by the dummy page, when there is no paging message to transmit.
1 Time slot = 156.25 bits durations (15/26 = 0.577 ms )
58Bits: Coded with pseudo random bit seq. to prevent confusion with Freq correction burst

The SDCCH are used in some different ways in the GSM network:
SDCCH congestion: All SDCCH in a cell are at the same time busy for a
period of time which leads to rejection for new MS.
Reasons :
• Hanging SDCCH: Are SDCCH that are hanging busy and unusable for a
long time (many minutes or indefinite).
Hanging SDCCH are generally caused by SW faults.
Call Setup: Mean Holding time =2.7 Sec(MOC) & 2.9 Sec(MTC)
Mob Originating Traffic (Incl B Ans) =0.8 BHCA
Mob Terminating Traffic (Incl B Ans) =0.4 BHCA
• Congestion of TCH/TRA/RALT
Will increase CP execution time before rejecting Imm Ass. Minor increase in mean hold time expected.
• Handover on SDCCH
Handover on SDCCH will in itself increase mean hold time on SDCCH. However minor increase is
expected.
• Congestion on Air-interface
Congestion on Air-interface leads to delay in communication to the MS. Can give timeout in BSC
during Imm Ass.Increases SDCCH mean hold time with more than 2 seconds.
• Congestion on A-interface
Congestion on the A-interface will lead to increased mean hold time on SDCCH. Increase is unknown.
It is recommended to choose
1 SDCCH/8 as the basic configuration for all the cells,
If LA> 2100 Erlang (500 TRX)

BC : Border Cells
IC : Inner Cells

ACCSTATE : Activate/Deactivate the Adaptive config of logical channel feature per cell basis
SLEVEL: The attempt to increase the number of SDCCH/8 will take place when allocation of an SDCCH
has failed due to congestion.
STIME :Parameter STIME determines how long the system waits before the number of SDCCH/8 added by
this function is decreased when the demand for signalling channels has returned to a low level
BTDM :Implicit detach supervision should be equal or longer than T3212 in BSC.
GTDM : is an extra Gurad time in minutes before the subscriber is set to detach.
RLINKT: Radio link time-out This parameter defines the time before an MS disconnects a call due to failure
in decoding SACCH messages. The parameter is given as number of SACCH periods (480ms).
