3. What should be noticed in PS service
frequency planning?
At the early stage of PS service development, PDCH was
configured on BCCH TRX.
It’s not suggested to enable power control or DTX for PDCH timeslots.
PDCH on BCCH TRX (doesn’t support dynamic power control or DTX)
won’t bring interference to the network.
In frequency planning, BCCH frequency is not often reused, so it doesn’t
bring much interference, therefore it can provide better C/I.
BCCH TRX doesn’t support radio FH, which helps avoid influence of FH.
Advanced coding mode has higher requirement for radio environment, we should
choose appropriate coding mode according to radio environment.
The recommended initial coding speed for DL is CS2/MCS6. When radio
environment is poor, the initial coding speed can be appropriately reduced.

Currently two flow control modes (mode 1 and 2) are supported in our
systems. Its parameters shall be carefully checked when connected with
SGSN provided by other suppliers.
Flow control mode
must be set 2, when
SGSN are provided
by HW or Motorola.
As for SGSN from
other suppliers, there
is no specific
restriction on flow
control mode, but
usually mode 2 is
recommended.
