[Remarks] The access channel long code mask of EVDO is also related to the system time for access probe transmission, besides, ColorCode and SectorID. The system time is the first timeslot of access probe preamble. Transmit also the pilot while transmitting data capsule.
PERSISTENCE0 (Persistence Vector 0) PERSISTENCE1 (Persistence Vector 1) PERSISTENCE2 (Persistence Vector 2) PERSISTENCE3 (Persistence Vector 3) [Description] This group of parameters is used for setting. When the type-0, 1, 2, or 3 AT performs persistence detection (PD) before sending the first probe of a probe sequence, use the APersistence value respectively. The AT determines persistence probability and carrier-class based on APersistence value. [APersistence i] value is sent to AT at (i +1) times of APeristence field of AccessParameters Message. If AT does not define type, use i = 0, corresponding to non-urgent AT. If the vector value n =0x3F, the persistence probability p =0. If n is unequal to 0x3F, p=2^(-n/4).

[Range and unit] Refer to hex with no more than 2 digits starting with 0x (maximum value: 0x3F) [Operating range] 0x000x3F [Recommended value] 1 (default value: 0x00) [Setting tradeoff] If the persistence vector is set to a large value, reduce the probability of PD and prolong the time for sending access probe, but reduce the probability of access probe collision. Set persistence vector to a small value because of small load during the initial stage of network construction to reduce access duration. Increase the value because of the increment of network access load to reduce access collision and ensure access success ratio. [Remarks] The AT must perform PD before sending the first probe of sequence. Generate random number x (0< x< 1) distributed equally to compare with persistence probability p. If x< p, the PD succeeds. If successful PDs or PD failures are more than 4/p, AT sends the first probe of sequence within the access channel period. If p is unequal to 0, AT repeats above PDs starting from next access channel period. If p = 0, access is unavailable for the AT.
OLOOPADJUST (AT Open-loop Power Estimation) [Description] Refer to the reverse nominal power used in the open-loop power estimation by the AT, in the unit of -1dB. The parameter is of carrier class.

probe. The X0 ranges from -6dB to +6dB and also from -9dB to =9dB of the following formula: X 0 = - Received average power (dBm) + OpenLoopAdjust (AT open-loop power estimation) + ProbeInitialAdjust (open-loop power estimation adjustment factor) [Type] Um interface parameter, and sent in the OpenLoopAjust field of Access Parameters Message. The value used by AT is -1 times of the value in the filed. [Command name] MOD DOAPM LST DOAPM [Range and unit] 0255 (unit: -1dB) [Operating range] 0255 [Recommended value] 85 [Setting tradeoff] If the parameter is set to a small value, increase the power of open-loop power estimation and reduce the time for successful AT access, but add reverse transmit power of AT to increase reverse interference of system. If the parameter is set to a large value, AT accesses the system after several probes.

[Setting tradeoff] The larger the value, the higher reliability the transmission of DRC value, but the lower the change rate of DRC to unable to be consistent with that of radio environment. The smaller the value, the less the retransmission times of DRC value, the lower the reliability the transmission of DRC value, but the faster the change rate of DRC. The DRC value varies with the soft handoff number of AT active set. Because DRC value has no soft handoff gain received at AN side, but reverse traffic channel has soft handoff gain, add DRCLength to increase the reliability of DRC transmission.

[Range and unit] -612 (unit: 0.5dB) [Operating range] -612 [Recommended value] 6, that is, 3dB [Setting tradeoff] To set the parameter, concern the following: Minimize the probability of ACK error and loss to not affect PER and forward throughput dramatically. The larger the value, the larger the effect on reverse capacity. When the transmit power of AT is up to the maximum, AT disables ACK channel.
[Remarks] AT uses the ACK sub-channel to notify whether AN has correctly received forward traffic channel data capsule. If AT has been correctly demodulated, send ACK bit. If not, send NAK bit. After receiving ACK bit from AT, AN transmits a new capsule instead of current one. The mechanism adjusts AT forward rate prediction to improve the system performance.

[Command name] MOD DOCNP LST DOCNP [Range and unit] -630 (unit: 0.5dB) [Operating range] -630 [Recommended value] -14 [Setting tradeoff] If the value of this parameter is overlarge, the soft handoff threshold increases, so the soft handoff area and the soft handoff ratio decrease. But the soft handoff may be delayed to result in coverage dead zone. If the value is over-small, the soft handoff threshold decreases, so the soft handoff area and the soft handoff ratio increase.

If the parameter is overlarge, the pilots in candidate set are difficult to replace the pilots in active set so that AT is unable to obtain services on the best pilots in time.
PILOTDROP (Pilot Dropt Threshold) [Description] When the strength of pilot in active set or candidate set is less than the threshold, AT starts a pilot deactivation timer. If the pilot strength is higher than PilotDrop before the timer expires, restart and disable the timer.

NBRMAXAGE (Neighbor Set Max. AGE) [Description] This parameter defines the maximum life duration of pilots in the neighbor set. The MS provides a counter for each pilot in the neighbor set. When the MS receives the Neighbor List Update Message (NLUM), it increases the counters of the original pilots in the neighbor set by one. If the counter of a pilot exceeds the parameter value, the MS removes this pilot from the neighbor set. If the parameter value is set to 0, each time the MS receives NLUM, the MS removes all pilots in the original neighbor set so that the MS uses the contents in the latest NLUM. If the value is set to 2, when a pilot falls from the active set or candidate set back to the neighbor set but there is no such pilot in two successive NLUMs, this pilot will be removed from the neighbor set.

The smaller the parameter value, the more the available pilot phase offset is. In this case, the same-phase inter-pilot multiplexing distance increases to reduce the interface of same-phase inter-pilot. At that time, the phase interval between different pilots decreases to confuse the pilots. The larger the parameter value, the less the available pilot phase offset is. In this case, pilots in remaining set decreases, so does the time for MS to scan pilots. In actual dynamic environment, the probability for one strong pilot signal loss decreases. At that time, available pilot phase offset decreases, so does for same-phase inter-pilot multiplexing distance, and the interference of same-phase inter-pilot increases. In addition, the parameter determines the maximum value of SRCH_WIN_N and SRCH_WIN_R.
SRCHWINA (Search Window Size for Active Set and Candidate Set) [Description] Corresponding AT is used for search window size for active set and candidate set. When the MS searches pilots in the active and candidate sets, set their first arriving available multi-paths as their search centers respectively. Therefore, this parameter is only related to the multi-paths of pilots, instead of the relative propagation delay between pilots. [Type] Um interface parameter, and defined in the SearchWindowActive field of SearchParameters feature table when route update protocol configures negotiation. [Command name] MOD DOCNP LST DOCNP [Range and unit] 015 The mapping between coding mode and search window size is shown in Table 5-9:

Page 60 of 88
Table 5-9 Search window size coding
[Operating range] 015 [Recommended value] 8, that is, 60chips [Setting tradeoff] According to the local propagation delay, the pilot signals after the propagation delay should fall into the search window of the active set. If the parameter value of this is over-small, some useful signals in the active set may fall beyond the search window to affect seriously link quality. If the parameter value of this is overlarge, some irrelevant signals (PN confusion) may also fall into the search window, so the link quality may also be affected. A large search window also slows down the MS search neighbor pilots so that the handoff could not be triggered in time. Thus the system performance decreases

SRCHWINN (Search Window Size for Neighbor Set) [Description] AT uses the search window size here to search for carriers in neighbor set.

[Type] Um interface parameter, and defined in the SearchWindowNeighbor field of SearchParameters feature table when route update protocol configures negotiation. [Command name] MOD DOCNP LST DOCNP [Range and unit] 015 The mapping between coding mode and search window size is shown in Table 5-9: [Operating range] 015 [Recommended value] 10, that is, 100chips [Setting tradeoff] The larger the parameter value, the longer the search takes. But the pilot branches are missed so the probability unable to add the neighbor pilots to active set is less.

Search windows size for remaining set, AT uses the search window size to search for carrier in remaining set. [Type] Um interface parameter, and defined in the SearchWindowRemaining field of SearchParameters feature table when route update protocol configures negotiation. The protocol default value is set to 10. [Command name] MOD DOCNP LST DOCNP [Range and unit] 015 For the coding code and search window size, see Table 5-9. [Operating range] 015 [Recommended value] 10, that is, 100chips [Setting tradeoff] If the parameter value is set over-small, some useful pilots in the remaining set may be missed. As a result, the function of BSC detecting the absent configuration of neighbor cell can not be utilized fully. If the parameter value is overlarge, the MS may search other irrelevant signals, and the time that the MS searches pilots in the remaining set increases, so the search speed of the MS slows down. [Remarks] To use missed neighbor cell detection function to check whether missed neighbor cells exist in the system, set the parameter. While MS searches for remaining set pilots, all the remaining set PNs are integer multiples of PILOT_INC. therefore, ensure that all the PNs in the system are integer multiples of PILOT_INC while planning PN.

8, that is, 60 chips [Setting tradeoff] According to the mulipath of neighbor pilot and the propagation delay size from neighbor pilot to reference pilot, set the parameter to ensure that neighbor pilot signals are located within the neighbor set search window that sets the earliest arriving multipath components of reference pilot as time reference and PN offset of neighbor pilot as search center. If the parameter value is over-small, neighbor pilot signals may be located beyond the search window to miss some neighbor pilots so that neighbor set pilots cannot be added to active set and normal soft handoff fails. If the parameter value is overlarge, the time for MS to search for each neighbor pilot may increase to slow down the speed for searching neighbor pilot and miss the best soft handoff opportunity to affect the handoff performance potentially.
NSRCHWINOFFSETINC (Search Window Offset of Neighbor Set Branch Included) [Description] Whether neighbor sector list message includes search window offset of neighbor set branch. If yes, use the [Search Window Offset of Neighbor Set Branch]. If no, use the default [Search Window Offset of Neighbor Set Branch].

[Remarks] Pilot pollution means that a large number of pilots with close strength are available but preamble pilot is unavailable in the radio environment. The pilot pollution will increases soft handoff ratio. When processing the RouteUpdate Message reported by MS, the BSC analyzes the pilot strength information to judge whether pilot pollution conditions are satisfied. If yes, output the RouteUpdate Message through a log to facilitate the query of network optimization personnel. The pilot pollution conditions include: (1) The pilot number that the strength in the RouteUpdate Message is more than T_ADD is greater than or equal to the parameter POLLUTENUM. (2) The strength balance of the strongest pilot and prior one in the RouteUpdate Message is less than or equal to parameter POLLUTERELTRSHLD.
POLLUTERELTRSHLD (Relative Threshold at Pilot Pollution) [Description] When the strength difference between the strongest pilot and the second strongest pilot in RouteUpdate message is less than or equal to the parameter value, it is called pilot pollution. This parameter is another condition which is used to judge whether the pilot pollution exists in the system.
