*) T3126: In GSM Ph.1 waiting period is not defined (e.g. a Nokia MS has 800ms) but in GSM ph.2 it is defined by algoritm (deterministic part + random part Number_of_slots_spread_trans) and can be as long as 5 sec. GSM 44.018 says: This timer is started either after sending the maximum allowed number of CHANNEL REQUEST messages during an immediate assignment procedure or on receipt of an IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT REJECT message,whichever occurs first. It is stopped at receipt of an IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT message, or an IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT EXTENDED message. At its expiry, the immediate assignment procedure is aborted.

HO attempt: The BSC receives measurements from the BTS. It processes the measurements and decides on the handover algorithm. If thresholds have been triggered for the handover, the BSC generates a candidate (target) cell list and starts the handover attempt. If candidate list is not generated for some reason then HO is not attempted.

BTS specific parameters in BSC: See reports: ND186, 222 MFR = Number of Multiframes between Paging (2..9, typical e.g.5 or 6) Number of multiframes between two transmissions of the same paging message to the MSs of the same paging group. Values 2 to 9 Multiframes corresponds to procedure length from 0 up to 0.47 - 2.2 seconds. NSN recommends value 5. The effect on the Call Setup depends at which point of the paging cycle the BTS receives the paging message from BSC/MSC, that is to be sent on the Air interface. PRACTICAL MEANING: - AFFECTS BATTERY LIFE TIME (MS listens paging periodically: smaller value -> shorter lifetime) - DEFINES HOW MUCH PAGING MESSAGE SENDING TO AIR INTERFACE MAY BE DELAYED

Each paging group has separate buffer of 8 Abis commands. MS defines its group from IMSI. Buffering delay can take 2..16sec Sent in CCCH_Load_Ind from BTS to BSC. 1/2 is is an additional safety margin to give an early warning of potential paging capacity problems. When 3018 is less than Paging_Buffer_Limit (it is defined in BSC; >EGO, default = 1, threshold = 0...16). then BSC sends an overload message to MSC. There is no automatic reallocation of the channel structure in case of overload. Nokia MSC does not use the overload message because paging is by LAs not by BTS. BSC stores the smallest value per BTS over the measurement period. If the value = 0 paging messages have been lost (paging may still be succesfull thanks to repaging)

Calculation of the amount of Paging Groups

MS defines its group from IMSI Paging Group Queue Depth= MAX(ROUND(max_lead_time * 1000 / (BS-PA-MFRMS * 51 * 4.615)),1) Each paging group has a separate buffer. The depth of the buffer (Paging Group Queue Depth) depends on BS-PA-MFRMS parameter. Max_lead_time = 5, not modifiable. The Queue Depth indicates how many radio interface Paging Requests it is possible to store in the buffer.
Example values of Paging Group Queue Depth BS-PA-MFRMS Paging Group Queue Depth 4 5 6 4 8 3
TMSI paging command = Abis Paging Command with TMSI identity IMSI paging command = Abis Paging Command with IMSI identity
Counter N: N(New) = Counter N: N(New) = Counter N: N(Max) = N(new) > N(Max) ?
N(current) + 1 for TMSI paging commands N(current) + 2 + (N(current) mod 4) div 3 for IMSI paging command 4*(Paging Group Queue Depth) If N(new) > N(max), the paging command is deleted and N(current) remains the same as before Amount of deleted paging commands is reported to the BSC in CCCH_Load_ind, and BSC adds this amount to counter 3038 delete_paging_command. Each time a Paging Request is sent to the Radio Interface, N is decremented according to formula N(new) = max{N(current) - 4, 0} For each Paging Group, there is a Counter N to follow up the usage of the buffer.

The current value is sent in the the CCCH_Load_Ind from BTS to BSC. BSC stores the smallest value. When PBS < 1, BSC sends an overload message to MSC. There is no automatic reallocation of the channel structure in case of overload. Nokia MSC does not use the overload message because paging is by LAs not by BTS.
For each paging group, and each paging multiframe, occupancy % = 100 *(N/N(max)) % AVERAGE(occupancy%) over all paging groups for each paging multiframe is reported from BTS to BSC in CCCH_Load_Ind Ave_paging_buffer (c3036) / res_acc_denom5 (c3037) max_paging_buffer_capa (counter 3035) Peak value of all Average Buffer Occupancy values in the CCCH_Load_Ind within the period is stored in BSC is a separate counter

Counter N and the formation of Radio Interface Paging Requests from Abis Paging Commands: in this example, one Paging Group Queue is described Paging Request Type 1 15 12 13 14 10 7 5 1 2 TMSI 6 3 4 11 8 9 2 1 2 1 3 empty N 1 2 3 1 5. msg 4. msg 3. msg 2. msg 1. msg 2 3 4 4 5 5 7 6 10 7 11 12 8 9 14 10 16 11 17 18 19 12 13 14 5. msg 22 15 6. msg

Nnew = Nold + 1 Nnew = Nold + 2 + (Nold mod 4) div 3

Buffer full when Nnew > Nmax
for TMSI paging command for IMSI paging command
IMSI
Formula for N for IMSI paging command works out as follows. Nnew = Nold +2 always but the case when the new IMSI paging command forces us to leave an "empty" spot to the Paging Request - this is the case if the paging request has earlier either 1 TMSI page and 1 IMSI page (2. Msg above), or 3 TMSI pages (5 msg above) - then Nnew = Nold+3. There is no passing lane in the paging buffers - Paging Commands are put to messages in the order in which they come to the BTS. So, in the above example, it is not possible to take mobile identity 8 from 3.msg, and put it before mobile identity 7 so that we could include it in 2.msg where there is an empty space for one TMSI mobile identity

Calculation and reporting of the maximum and average buffer occupancy percentages maximum
BSC stores the maximum value received during the measurement period (e.g. 60 min) c3035 max_paging_buffer_capa
load-%
Paging Multiframe PMF
load-%
PMF_average
average
Paging group index
time One CCCH reporting period
BSC adds the values received during the measurement period (e.g. 60 min) c3036 ave_paging_buffer_capa and the number of CCCH_load_ind messages c3037 res_acc_denominator_5
At the end of each Paging Multiframe Cycle (Paging Multiframe Cycle = each Paging Group sent once), the load (or occupancy) is calculated as 100*(N/N(max)) %. From this, the ABO = PMF_average = AVERAGE(occupancy-%) is calculated
The ABOs are then collected over the CCCH reporting period, the average over the CCCH reporting period is calculated and the maximum selected
After each reporting period, CCCH Load Ind is sent to the BSC with the deleted page, maximum and average buffer occupancy information
CCCH reporting period is a HW data parameter at the BTS, the default period is 30*4*51*4.615ms = appr. 28 sec.

UL and DL are sampled every 480ms. Every sample is ranked to a quality class:
Class corresponds to BER: Class ***** qua 0 qua 1 qua 2 qua 3 qua 4 qua 5 qua 6 qua 7 BER (GSM 05.08) ****************** (BER < 0.2%) (BER 0.2 - 0.4%) (BER 0.4 - 0.8%) (BER 0.8 - 1.6%) (BER 1.6 - 3.2%) (BER 3.2 - 6.4%) (BER 6.4 - 12.8%) (BER >12.8%)

slightly degradiated degradiated useless
Results are available per TRX in p_nbsc_rx_qual or p_nbsc_rx_statistics.
Impact of UL DTX: An investigation showed that UL DTX makes UL quality to show worse. The impact was about one 1% unit (1% of samples more in classes 6 and 7). When investigated with field tests no real degradiation of quality could be found.
The BER reported by the mobiles is the figure measured before the decoding process, whereas the FER is associated with the corrected BER after the decoder.

FH effect on quality
Author: 5/98 Version: 1.1 PMWG appr.: 1.1 1.7.98
Quality classes evolution with FH

This picture is a rough example of the trend and should not be shown to customers as an offical statement. Note that - classes 0-5 do not cause audible problems - BER is not good for measuring audio quality. FER would be better but is not available Experiments in hopping network have shown that even if quality 5-6 share (BER) increased FER did not, i.e. MS user perceived quality is not worse.
100 %
The advantage comes in that the speech coder works much better under the single burst errors you get with hopping. With more freqs these get spaced enough that the coding can handle all the errors. However, more TRXs (or frequencies) in a hopping sequence usually means the reuse has got tighter and soon this will start to introduce more errors than you are saving.

ERRORED SECONDS (err_sec) When during a one second period one or more bits are in error. SEVERE ERRORED SECONDS (err_sec_severe) When during a one second period the bit error ratio is greater than or equal to 1*(1/1000). For a connection of 64 kbit/s this means that a severely errored second is registered when there are 64 or more errors in the one second period. DEGRADED MINUTES (degraded_min) When a bit error ratio is greater than 1*(1/1000000) during one minute. NOTE! If there are severely errored seconds during the minute, those seconds are not calculated for the one minute period. It means that the measured time can be more than one minute. BACKGROUND BLOCK ERRORS BBE (NetAct200 dbase name = degraded_min) BBE is updated when observed an errored block (EB) not occurring as part of an severely errored seconds (SES). Errored block is a block in which one or more bits are in error

Multi-BCF can chain max.6 BTS SEG = telecom cell , 1 BCCH (one or more BTSs from one BSC) In traffic measurement the request is updated to BCCH BTS, successfull call set up to BTS where the channel was allocated. Unsuccessful dual band call set up with sufficient measurement results is updated to non BCCH BTS and unsuccessful single band or dual band without measurement results are updated to BCCH BTS.
e.g. Prime
BCF-1
e.g. Ultra
BCF-2
Note1: BSC still sends the measurements to NetAct on BTS level (or TRX level). NetAct adds to measurement table a column for segment and fills up that info based on the configuration data stored in NetAct database (segment is defined in c_bts table).

77 FER Measurement (updated in slide 135)

Measurement info:
Frame Erasure Rate is the best available indicator in a GSM system to assess the Voice Quality provided in a network. It represents the percentage of frames being dropped due to high number of non corrected bit errors in the frame. The correlation of BER (reported by the MS) and FER (Voice Quality indicator) is not constant as the efficiency of the error correction mechanism varies with different techniques. The BER reported by the mobiles is the figure measured before the decoding process, whereas the FER is associated with the corrected BER after the decoder. MSs that do not support Enhanced Measurement Report are not able to report downlink FER. Downlink FER can be estimated by using correlation counted for each channels profile. FER value replace BER value in handover and power
control algorithms in the frequency hopping systems.

Measurement info:
The UTRAN Handover Adjacent Cell measurement of the BSC collects statistics about the distribution of Inter-System Handovers between different cells. Counters are collected separately for each serving cell on the GSM side.
Note! In shifting from 3G to 2G intersystem handover cell level statistics is not possible because of 3GPP standards, which recognize only the PLMN(MCCMNC)+ LAC +SAC identification of the 3G source cell. That is why the counters 093259 -093290 are not valid when shifting from 3G to 2G inter-system handover. ND report 159.

99 Total FEP Measurement

Measurement info:
The Total FEP Measurement provides Total Frame Erasure Probability values of each serving cell and neighbouring cell pair. In the measurement the C/I ratio between the serving cell and adjacent cell is mapped to FEP values by a predefined correlation table. The Total FEP value is sum of the FEP values for each serving cell during the measurement period. For each BTS there is a set of counters, which are collecting the cumulated sum of FEP values during the measurement period for a certain serving cell neighbouring cell pair. Information is collected by BSC from MMR-messages, which are received in 0.48 s period during the call. Separate Total FEP values are provided for co-channel and adjacent channel interference. Using these counters, an interference matrix can be formed telling the cost of putting any group of cells on same frequency.

77 FER Measurement updated slide

Measurement info:
Frame Erasure Rate is the best available indicator in a GSM system to assess the Voice Quality provided in a network. It represents the percentage of frames being dropped due to high number of non corrected bit errors in the frame. The correlation of BER (reported by the MS) and FER (Voice Quality indicator) is not constant as the efficiency of the error correction mechanism varies with different techniques. The BER reported by the mobiles is the figure measured before the decoding process, whereas the FER is associated with the corrected BER after the decoder. MSs that do not support Enhanced Measurement Report are not able to report downlink FER. Downlink FER can be estimated by using correlation counted for each channels profile. FER value replace BER value in handover and power
control algorithms in the frequency hopping systems.

107 AMR RX Quality Measurement

Measurement info:
The AMR RX Quality Measurement (12) collects statistics of received ber BASED signal quality both in uplink and downlink directions for each AMR bitrate. The Bit Error Ratio (BER) based signal quality counters correspond to the eight RX Quality bands. The counters are updated by the RX Quality values as measured by the MS (downlink) and BTS (uplink) and reported in the radio link measurement messages. There are separate UL and DL counters for each quality band and FR as well as for HR. There are also DL quality counters for Single Antenna Interference Cancelation (SAIC) capable MSs.
