BSSPAR S10.5
Module 05
When only a preferred TCH rate information comes with the request the
BSC determines the type of the TCH resource to be allocated based on the
following:
the A interface circuit that the MSC has allocated for the call
the given list of preferred speech codecs by MS
the speech codecs support of the BTS
the TCH configuration on the BTS
the resource situation in the BTS

Idle Channel Interference
The BTS measures and reports on the uplink interference of the radio channels
which have
been idle during the whole measurement period.
Idle TCHs are classified into five interference classes
RR Management algorithm assigns a channel from the lowest possible interference

Recovery system returns BCCH automatically to its original TRX after fault has been
eliminated
Supports the usage of TRXs with different output power in the same cell
Can be activated cell by cell

DR used to avoid the loss of a call in call-setup if the accessed cell is congested
When no TCH is available in serving cell, TCH can be allocated in an adjacent cell (SDCCH

Queuing of Radio Resources
Used to avoid rejecting call set-up or HO attempt by waiting for the
release of a suitable TCH
Queuing Environment
queuing is a BTS specific procedure (controlled by the BSC)
each BTS has a queue of its own
individual queue parameters and queue management for each BTS
call attempts and handovers in the same queue
the maximum queue length is relative to the number of traffic
channels
the maximum queuing time can be set individually for both queue
types
the queuing can be de-activated by setting queuing time or queue
Entering the queue:
length to zero
different
The prioritieswhen
queue is entered according
there to queue
is no type
traffic (call/HO)
channels and/or MS
available of
priority
requested kind and if
queuing is allowed in the BTS
queuing enabled in the assignment request from MSC
queue is not full (of higher or equal priority requests)
