IP Transport in the BSS Description
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
IP Transport in the BSS is introduced to support a greater diversity of network
environment.
The BSC, TC and the MFS, which are part of the BSS network, are connected to this IP
transport network in the BSS through Ethernet links. The remaining network element, the
BTS, can be connected to the BSS network through Ethernet or E1 links.
Depending on the connection type of the BTS, the BSS can have the following states:
• Mixed mode BSS:
The BSS network contains both TDM BTSes and IP over Ethernet (IPoEth) BTSes.
• Full IP over Ethernet BSS:
The BSS network contains only IP over Ethernet (IPoEth) BTSes
The following figures shows the generic configuration.
By using the mixed mode BSS, there is no need of switching at the same time all the
BTSes to an IP mode, allowing a smooth introduction of the IP transport in the BSS.
This mixed mode allows the BSS to handle at the same time TDM BTSes and IP BTSes,
so the process of switching the BTSes to an IP mode can be performed step by step.

IP Transport in the BSS Description
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
In Full IP over Eternet BSS there are only IP over Ethernet (IPoEth) BTSes (BTS are
equipped with SUM-X boards). In this mode, the BTS telecom flow is no more
transmitted to the TC or MFS through the BSC, instead the transmission is made directly
through the BSS IP network backbone.
In the Full IP over Ethernet BSS mode the IP flows can be separated as follows:

Support of 1400 TRX / 7 CCP (6300 Erlangs) Description
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
The Support of 1400 TRX / 7 CCP (6300 Erlangs) feature allows the increase of the
MxBSC capacity by adding two more CCP boards on ATCA shelf without changing the
capacity of the boards compared to the B11 values (200 TRX/CCP). The additional 2
CCP boards are inserted in the 2 free slots in the Mx BSC ATCA Shelf.
Inserting these new boards allows adding two new BSC configurations: configuration 6 to
support 1200 TRX and configuration 7 to support 1400 TRX.
The extension to 1400 TRX is possible if BSS is in pure TDM (with TPv3 or TP3I4
boards) or IP mode. If BSS is in:
• pure TDM mode with TPv3, then the maximum supported capacity is 4500 erlangs
• pure TDM mode with TP3I4 (TP-STM1-IP), then the maximum capacity depends on
the number of Atermux configured as CS
• IP and A signaling or A User Plane in TDM or IP are activated, then the supported
capacity is 6300 erlangs with limitations.
Abis/Ater flexibility
This additional option is commercially linked and included in the Support of 1400 TRX /
7 CCP (6300 Erlangs) feature.
It allows flexible assignment of E1 links between Abis and Ater. New maximum number
of E1 ABIS will be 250, except in case of STM1 Clock synchronization when the new
maximum number will be 252. LIU board supports both E1 ATER and E1 ABIS. Before
changing E1 links from Abis to Ater or reverse, the operator must take care to have no
ongoing traffic on the Abis and Atermux impacted.
In case of BSC IP mode and only Ethernet BTS there is no E1 use and the maximum
number of E1 Abis is not relevant.
It is supported from MxBSC configuration 6 and 7 and it requires the following features
activated:
• Support of 1400 TRX / 7 CCP (6300 Erlangs)
• A signaling over IP
• Full AUPoIP. This means that Full AUPoIP mode is activated and the TC is no longer
used so no more Ater CS are needed.
In IP BSS transport mode, with full AUPoIP mode, this feature will support IPoE1 Abis
mode.
It is allowed with STM1 on MxBSC. The same type of file as the STM1 configuration
file will be used to configure Abis/Ater flexibility. For flexible LIU port number the
purpose is to affect each LIU port number as ABIS or ATER in configuring the

corresponding Abis/Ater_HWAY_TP as connected to LIU-E1 or, in the specific context of
STM1, as connected to STM1 VC12 E1. The Transmission Termination points
configuration file shall contain the configuration of all equipped
ABIS_HWAY_TP/ATER_HWAY_TP.
If this option is activated, then:
• Mx BSC reduction is possible only from configuration 7 to 6 and the extension is only
possible from configuration 6 to 7. Reduction to an inferior configuration will result
in an error. Before BSC reduction, the operator should check the number of cells (see
cell limitation) to be in accordance with the requested BSC configuration type (No
check done in BSC)
• Disabling the AUPoIP architecture is not allowed
• IPoE1 feature is supported
• BSS transport mode change on BSC is allowed from TDM to IP and reverse.
• Change E1 transport mode from IPoE1 to TDM or reverse is allowed.
Removal of cell limitation
The maximum number of (own) cells will be 700 for BSC configuration 6 and BSC
configuration 7. The maximum number of (own) cells for BSC configuration 1, 2, 3, 4
and 5 are the same as in B11.
Removal of extra time slots limitation
Increased from 2000 to proposed maximum of 4000 extra timeslots in BSC.
Hardware Coverage
Overview
The feature is supported only with 9130 BSC Evolution equipped with TP3, TP3i4, TP4
or TP4i .
For the Abis/Ater flexibility option, the 9130 BSC Evolution must carry TP3i4 or TP4i
supporting Full AUPoIP and Mixed AUPoIP.

....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
VAMOS (Voice services over Adaptive Multi-rate channels on One Slot) allows
multiplexing of two users simultaneously on the same physical resource in the circuit
switched mode both in downlink and in uplink, using the same timeslot number, ARFCN
and TDMA frame number. Hence, a basic physical channel capable of VAMOS supports
up to 4 TCH channels along with their associated control channels (FACCH and
SACCH).
In DL the BTS transmits simultaneously to 2 MSs on the same timeslot and frequency
using two different training sequences (one for each MS) and with Adaptive-QPSK
modulation (variant of QPSK allowing flexible power control for the two users), which
allows to double the throughput compared to legacy GMSK.
One AQPSK symbol corresponds to a pair of bits where each bit belongs to a different
sub-channel.

Description
Overview
The NodeB does not have an accurate autonomous clock system, especially in IP mode,
where the it uses PDP (Packet Data Protocol) and IEEE 1588v2 to obtain the required
frequency accuracy. That is why, in the case of collocated BTSs and IP NodeBs, the BTS
will provide a G704 E1 signal synchronized from the local oscillator on the secondary
Abis port (and/or third, fourth Abis port in case of up to 4 E1 per SUM feature) that will
be connected to the NodeB.

Description
Overview
This feature enables the optical Abis connectivity for IPoEth BTS on both macro
(SUMX) and distributed configurations (SUMX 19"). This is done through the GSM New
Class (GNC) daughter board, on the SUMX. The GNC daughter board is already
available on SUMX 19" for MC-RRH configurations, where it provides optical links
between the PSU and the RRHs. In macro configuration, the GNC will be installed onsite.
The electrical/optical conversion is performed by a device called SFP ("Small
Form-factor Pluggable transceiver"). This device can be hot plugged in the GNC daughter
board and the BTS NEM allows the operator to select the Abis interface type: Ethernet
electrical or Ethernet optical.

Support of Boosted GP Description
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
This feature aims to fulfill the need for increased EGPRS traffic. In order to limit the
number of additional GP boards / MFS shelf, a significant increase of the GP board
capacity is required. Therefore, the Boosted GP boards have an incresed capacity by the
maximum possible factor (at least by a factor of 4). Since the spare boards needs to be
able to replace a Boosted GP, it is necessary that the spare board is always a Boosted GP.
Therefore, the MFSs that have Boosted GPs will have fixed spare boards.
Hardware Coverage
Overview
The feature is supported only with 9130 MFS Evolution.
Feature Activation
Overview
The feature is activated by adding JBXGP3 boards to an MFS. The BSCs associated to
the MFS must be in the B12 release. For specific information regarding the feature
activation, please refer to Insert JBXGPU/JBXGP2/JBXGP3 from the Alcatel-Lucent

LTE to GSM Handover Description
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
The 3GPP has defined the VCC (Voice Call Continuity) which provides the capability to
transfer the path of an existing voice call between a 3GPP CS system (GSM/UMTS) and
IMS (IP multimedia subsystem), and vice versa.
The SRVCC (Single Radio Voice Call Continuity) is the 3GPP way to perform a handover
for voice calls from LTE (PS domain) to GSM (CS domain).
Three scenarios are presented:
• without DTM
• with DTM but without DTM HO support
• with DTM HO support.
DTM is supported in ALU BSS while DTM HO is not. The third scenario is then not
relevant for ALU BSS.
This feature implements a mean for the BSS to reject LTEto GSM handovers, based upon
the target cell load (similar to what has been already implemented for 3G to GSM
handovers); this is the load based filtering procedure.
With the introduction of this feature, the BSC either accepts or rejects a handover from a
LTE network, based on its own traffic load and the handover cause. If the load exceeds
the threshold defined for the LTE network, only emergency handovers are allowed.
Hardware Coverage
Overview
The feature is supported only with 9130 BSC Evolution.

A User Plane over IP Description
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
The A User Plane over IP feature is available if the BSS is connected to a NGN
(MSC-Server and MGW) core network. Going from legacy TDM to IP Networks and
implementing the NGN concept means that both User and Control planes are managed
separately through IP.
As far as the A Interface is concerned, the A-Signalling over IP (B11 feature) already
splits User Plane/Control Plane on the A Interface and allows to manage A signalling over
IP and the User Plane being still carried over TDM. The A User Plane over IP (B12
feature) completes the picture and allows to manage the A User Plane over IP.
Hardware Coverage
Overview
The feature is supported only with:
• 9130 BSC Evolution equipped with TPv3i, TPv3i4 or TPv4i
• TC G2 only in case of TDM BSS and for mixed A User Plane over IP mode.

Dynamic Power Voltage Adjustment (DPVA) Description
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
With the Multi Carrier Modules Alcatel-Lucent introduces a new technique to further
reduce the power consumption.
Normally a power amplifier is designed for the highest output power requested. The
amplifier gets here a certain supply voltage where it is by design most efficient. A
standard amplifier design provides only one supply voltage.
But in most of the cases the amplifier is used in partly or even low load conditions where
the amplifier is visibly less efficient and consumes more power than necessary.
Alcatel-Lucent provides therefore a new innovative technique to enhance the amplifier
efficiency also in low traffic situations.
The power supply for the amplifier is switchable and provides the best supply voltage for
the PA depending on the load conditions in the specific timeslot. From one GSM timeslot
to the next this voltage is adapted and keeps the amplifier always in the best efficiency
range and therefore reduces the power consumption of the amplifier.
Hardware Coverage
Overview
The feature is supported only with:
• BTS equipped with:
– MC TRX starting with B12.1
– MC RRH starting with B12.2
• 9130 BSC Evolution.

Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) Protocol Description
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) is a network protocol used to detect faults
between two endpoints over a particular link. In an IP BSS network architecture, IP Abis
traffic is often aggregated from BTS sites in several points of concentration (POCs) of an
access network, before reaching a central IP gateway, which is the starting point of a
secured IP backbone towards TC, BSC, and MFS. The network access can be a layer 2 or
a layer 3 access network. In most of the cases, it is not owned by the mobile operator, and
Abis is backhauled through leased lines services. BFD is a tool to monitor the transport
layer of the Abis through non managed transport network. The BFD IP address is used by
the "next hop" router which implement the BFD protocol The address is configured via
the BTS NEM and is retrieved by the OMC via through SNMP. If the network access
does not provide path resiliency capability , BFD can be used as trigger of path
switchover between a primary and a secondary route.
Hardware Coverage
Overview
The feature is supported only with BTS 9100 (MBI3/MBI5, Outdoor) equipped with
SUMX board.
Feature Activation
Overview
The feature is commercially optional.
To activate this feature:
• From the Alcatel-Lucent Base Station - BTS NEM User Guide window follow the
menu path: Configuration -> IP... -> BFD IP Address The "BFD Responder IP
Address" window opens
• Enter the required BFD IP Address and click on [OK].
The default value is 0.0.0.0 and means that BFD is not activated; that value indicates that
the operator does not provide any IP address yet and is not displayed on the OMC. The
BFD IP address must be different from the BTS IP address.

Security Enhancements for IP Introduction Description
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
The aim of this feature is to distribute the security functions over the BSS subsystems as
well as their interactions.
The security strategy for the BSS takes into account the following aspects:
• The need for network element protection
A first level of protection is to secure write accesses to telecom and O&M network
elements.
A second level of protection is to secure read access for sensitive data.
A third level of protection would be to secure everything, meaning read accesses
whatever the data flow.
• The need for network protection (data flow sensitivity)
Network protection is not to protect the network, but to protect data flows going
through the network against dishonest users with network access. The solution is to
use secured VPN tunnels, via to the IPsec protocol. The BTS supports such IPsec
tunnels. Other network elements rely on customer central site IPsec gateways.
• The NE location (central or remote sites are differentiated).
As opposed to customer central sites, where only customer authorized people are
present, remote sites are easily accessible to non authorized people. In the BSS,
remote sites are, in most cases, BTS sites. Therefore, the BTS has the support of the
IPsec and the 802.1x protocol for Ethernet port access control. The 802.1x protocol
forbids unauthorized clients from using the Ethernet ports of a server machine.
This feature includes several solutions and technologies for enhancing the security for
inter network elements communications, such as:
• IP Security (IPSec)
• IP Security Gateway Authentication
• Radius Server Authentication

Each line contains:
– a check box, used to mark the types to be part of the PMC
– the PM type name
– 4 granularity fields, corresponding to G2/Mx/B11/B12 BSCs. These fields are
populated with the default values and the user can change the values with the
corresponding granularity allowed for each PM type.
– the user can fill in the granularity for all types (excepting the ones having fixed
values) by the same value with one click.
• The values set are kept after OMC-R software replacement or software migration
• If the feature is not enabled, the user is only allowed to enter either 30 minutes for all,
or 60 minutes for all types (excepting the ones having fixed values).

Remote BTS NEM Description
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
The Network Element Manager for a BTS (BTS NEM) is a software package used for
managing, maintaining and commissioning a BTS.
For IP transport, there are two BTS connection types:
• Local connection
• Remote connection
Local Connection
Local connection can be done via front panel NEM connector on the SUM board (which
needs to open the NE door with a key).
From this point, the PC-NEM is named “Local PC-NEM”.
Remote Connection
This is possible from anywhere within the network, as far as the routing / firewall allows.
A “remote connection” can also be on a switch port physically located near the BTS,
which needs the port to be enabled and physical accessible.
In the following figure,the wording “PC-NEM” is used for content relative to the local
and the remote PC-NEM.

Description
Overview
With IP BSS, the frequency synchronization of the BTS (i.e. the automatic recalibration
of the local oscillator frequency on a high accuracy transmission clock source) can be
achieved through NTP: a stratum 1 NTP server delivers NTP messages to the BTS.
The key value of the synchronization through NTP is that this method does not induce
any requirement on the transmission backbone.

Layer 2 Network Access Description
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
Using a Layer 2 transport network means that, despite the BSS, network elements (BTS,
BSC, TC, MFS) will still exchange IP packets. The underlying functional architecture of
the transport network can be seen as a single LAN, in fact, an Ethernet LAN. Taking into
account the potential distance between network elements, this is based on "Extended Area
LAN" concepts such the MetroEthernet. The primary impact on the IP-based transport is
that all IP addresses of the network elements belong to the same IP subnet, and no IP
router (Layer 3) is needed between two network elements.
Hardware Coverage
Overview
The feature is supported only with:
• 9130 BSC Evolution:
– IPoE1 with new TP board TPIP module
– IPoEth no new upgrade needed

Description
Overview
The feature provides a mechanism for building redundant network interfaces to guard
against NICs, cables, switches or other networking hardware failures. It also provides a
method to do maintenance on system hardware without losing network connectivity in IP
environments, based on Solaris IPMP.
This feature is compatible with “Multiple LAN Interfaces” OMC-R feature.
For each network interface, the built-in algorithm will try to find, if possible, an unused
network interface on a different network board to pair it up with, and set both up in a
multipathing IP group, link detection based.
The following interfaces are excluded from IPMP setup:
• loopback interface (lo0)
• inter hardware domain interfaces on Mxxx machines (sppp,clsn)
• non configured network interfaces (IP=0.0.0.0)
• interfaces used to communicate with 2540 StorageTeck disk array
• already using IPMP interfaces

Ater GCH Equity per GP Description
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
Ater GCH Equity per GP is a new mechanism that forces the reallocation of GCH from
some TRX to other TRX, at GP level.
The main goal of Ater GCH equity per GP is to use the Ater GCH resource in a more
efficient way. The following aspects are covered:
• A reactive mode corrects big differences in the GCH allocation or real GCH
congestion
• An anticipation mode which increases the GCH allocation to TRX for which the real
GCH usage is near congestion.
Hardware Coverage
Overview
The feature is not network element dependent.
Feature Activation
Overview
The feature is not optional for B12.2 Ed2 and later releases.
For specific information about the feature activation, for releases earlier than B12.2 Ed2,

Packet Downlink Power Control Description
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
The objective of Packet Downlink Power Control is to optimize the BTS output power
while maintaining quality in the ongoing packet connections.
The power reduction can be:
• Constant, defined by a P0 parameter. The average power level used by PS traffic in a
cell can be decreased by the constant value P0, and therefore reduce the PS
contribution to the interference.
The value of P0 is configurable within a range of 0…30 db with a 2db step. The
constant downlink power control reduction is applicable to GMSK and 8PSK
modulations
• Dynamic. The BTS limits its output power on blocks addressed to a particular MS
(USF or RLC blocks) to levels between (BCCH level - P0dB) and (BCCH level -
P0dB - 10dB)
The dynamic downlink power control is applicable to GMSK and 8PSK modulations
used in EGPRS. For a given PDCH shared by different TBFs, the power may change
every RLC/MAC radio block (i.e. every 20 ms).
Hardware Coverage
Overview
The feature is not network element dependent.

Overview
The feature provides a new script which counts the number of TREs and sectors that are
in out of service (OOS) state and attempts to restore them without manual intervention.
The script works as follows:
• when it encounters a TRE in OOS state, it resets the corresponding board
• when it encounters a sector (RA) in OOS state, it locks and unlocks the related board.
The script can be run at three levels:
• at OMC-R level - counts and attempts to restore all the OOS TREs and Sectors
corresponding to all the BTSs of all the BSCs declared in OMC-R
• at BSC level - counts and attempts to restore all the OOS TREs and Sectors
corresponding to all the BTSs of a particular BSC
• at BTS level - counts and attempts to restore all the OOS TREs and Sectors
corresponding to a particular BTS.

Server Server Overview
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
The OMC-R does a periodical check with the NTP server and the synchronization
mechanism is triggered in case of a high deviation. If the time deviation is greater than
the defined threshold, the OMC-R generates an alarm instead of synchronizing with the
NTP server and forwards it to NMC. Only the existing OMC-R synchronization is
stopped and alarms are raised.
The NTP server and the deviation threshold are configured in OMC-R.
The threshold can be configured in the following file:
• for Solaris: /etc/inet/ntp-plus.conf
• for Linux: /etc/ntp-plus.conf.
Before any configuration is done, the OMC-R (Master/HMI/Agent) in question should be
declared as ExNE in order to receive the alarms. After configuration, the ntp-plus service
has to be enabled.
On Master, if the threshold is reached, only the ntp/ntpd service is disabled, ntp-plus
remaining active. On Agents/HMIs, both services will be disabled. The alarm will be
cleared when both ntp and ntp-plus services are enabled by the operator after performing
the required actions.

Description
Overview
This feature offers to balance the load of 900 and 1800 at earlier stage than handover.
• It allows at call setup of Circuit Switched CS calls to balance traffic between cells
belonging to different bands (e.g. 900 and 1800). When the load in a cell is equal or
higher than a dedicated threshold, at assignment request a forced directed retry is
performed in order to send the call on the other band for CS services, if the radio
condition allows that.
• Up to now, this balance CS traffic between bands was possible only with handover
procedure (cause 21) after the call set up.
Hardware Coverage
Overview
The feature is not supported with concentric and multiband cells.
Feature Activation
Overview
The feature is commercially optional.

Description
Overview
Among legacy MSs, SAIC MSs (also called DARP Phase-1 MSs) are able to operate at
Signal-to-Noise Ratio values close to 0dB with acceptable performance. It was discovered
that some SAIC MSs suffer of sudden quality degradation immediately after the VAMOS
pairing when the chosen SCPIR is equal to 0dB. This behavior is the same also with good
radio conditions. With some SAIC MSs the observed phenomenon happens every time a
VAMOS pairing is performed.
In particular these substandard SAIC MSs need a SCPIR>0 dB to correctly decode an
AQPSK signal.
Because the substandard SAIC MSs are already present in the field, a solution cannot be
implemented in the MSs themselves but it must be implemented in the BSS only.
The solution is the BSC to maintain a black-list of substandard SAIC MS models.
The BSC uses the IMEISV information sent by the MS to identify the substandard SAIC
MS models. The pairing of two substandard SAIC MSs is forbidden. The pairing of a
substandard SAIC MS with a non-substandard SAIC MS is allowed under the condition
that the initial SCPIR value is chosen favorable to the substandard SAIC MS and equal or
higher than a configured value defined by the SCPIR_LOW_MS_ALLOC_SUB_SAIC
parameter. The VAMOS Power Control algorithm guarantees that during the call the
SCPIR is kept favorable to the substandard SAIC MS and equal or higher than the
configured value (defined by the SCPIR_LOW_MS_PC_SUB_SAIC parameter).

Max threshold for HR usage per BSC Description
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
When AMR-HR coding is enabled in a cell, the new channel allocations are made in
AMR-HR channels as soon as the cell load increases above a configured threshold.
Moreover, the on-going AMR-FR calls may be handed-over to AMR-HR channels to free
some radio resources. As a result, in extreme load conditions all the on-going calls in the
cell will be allocated to AMR-HR channels and the cell capacity may double. When the
load increases on all the cells of a BSS the number of the AMR-HR calls in the BSS may
become very high. This can create an extreme load on the A interface.
Till now the only way to control the number of AMR-HR channels used is by configuring
two cell's parameters:
• THR_FR_LOAD_U_SV3
• THR_FR_LOAD_L_SV3
When the average load of a network is below THR_FR_LOAD_L_SV3 then the BSC
choose the codec used for a new call from a preferred list of codecs supported by the
mobile station. If the average network load surpasses the THR_FR_LOAD_U_SV3
limit, then all the new calls are pushed to use the AMR-HR channels. Also in this case
some of the existing calls that are already on-going can be pushed to use one of the HR
channels if the handover between channels is allowed.

Max threshold for HR usage per BSC Description
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
With the Max threshold for HR usage per BSC feature, the number of the maximum
AMR-HR channles per BSS can be limited and so the load of the A interface can be more
preciously controlled. This is done with a new parameter called MAX_TCH_HAL-
F_RATE and its value is expressed in percentage.
If the BSS network load is below the MAX_TCH_HALF_RATE then the BSC choose
the codec type used for a new call from the preferred list of codecs supported by the
mobile station (exactly like before). Also the handover from AMR-FR to AMR-HR
channels is permitted.
If the BSS network load surpasses MAX_TCH_HALF_RATE then the new calls can not
be allocated to a AMR-HR channel, so the codec used is one of the remaining from the
preferred list of supported codecs type for each mobile station.

Description
Overview
In a distributed BTS configuration, the controller (SUMX) and the radio components
(RRHs) are connected with a dedicated fiber optic cable. This link carries the
telecommunication traffic, enables the signalling to be performed and assures that the
clock and the phase of the modules are in sync.
An alternative to having dedicated fiber optic cables is to use a Packet Transport Network
(PTN).
Ir over PTN feature enables a distributed BTS to use a PTN network in order to connect
the SUMX and the RRHs.
Configurations
The following configurations of distributed BTS are supported with the IroPTN feature:
• one SUMX with up to 6 RRHs in a chain
• one SUMX with up to 6 RRHs in a chain and OLC (One Logical Cell) feature enabled
• one SUMX with up to 6 RRHs in mixed mode: 2 chains with 3 RRHs per chain
(available with B12.2 edition 3)
• one SUMX with up to 6 RRHs in mixed mode: 3 chains with 2 RRHs per chain
(available with B12.2 edition 3)

The IroPTN feature offers two synchronization types between the SUMX and the RRHs.
The synchronization mode can be changed by modifying the value of the
IRoPTN_PTP_SYNCHRO parameter with one of the following values:
• Not Supported (the distributed BTS does not support IroPTN feature)
• SumRrhIrOFiber (the distributed BTS supports IroPTN, but the feature is not
activated)
• SumRrhIrOPtnPtpMaster (the IroPTN feature is activated on the distributed BTS
and the phase and frequency are provided by the PTN network)
• SumRrhIrOPtnSumPtpMaster (the IroPTN feature is activated on the distributed
BTS and the phase is provided by the SUMX and the frequency is provided by the

Description
Overview
The feature allows the allocation of radio timeslots based on packet size detection.
In the case of high traffic with small packets, SPD greatly improves PDCH efficiency.
Under high traffic load, one PDCH is allocated to all TBFs at start. If the packet size is
over the threshold of a "small packet", there will be a switch to the maximum PDCH
capability according to UE, which will be used until the end of TBF.
In simplified solution:
• There are two levels of packet size detection: small and long
• SPD uses the same activation flag and license key as Increased weight for the
common long TBF..
Hardware Coverage
Overview
The feature is supported only with 9130 MFS Evolution.

• One Logical Cell configuration is used for long distance deployments such as along
side railroad tracks or highways
• Each Logical Cell consists of a number of receive/transmit sites and has a number of
TRX. Each TRX is supported in each receive/transmit site (MC-RH)
• The OLC provides a larger coverage than a cell on a single MC-RH, without
increasing capacity and with the reduction of accumulated outage time during a call
• The mobile does not do a handover between receive/transmit sites
• The receive/transmit site, the MC-RH supported HW is MC RRH, mini-RRH or MC
TRDU
• The BTS is in coverage mode
• The OLC is incompatible with Location Services feature.
Support of 3 OLC with 6 MC-RRH in mixed configuration particularities:
• A mixture of star and chain configuration is used when more than one MC-RRH is
required per sector, due to output power design constraints, site's RRH dispatching
constraints or resilience (one dedicated link per sector).
• The mixed configuration of Chain and Star configurations supported by SUMX19
inches relationships are:
– 3 Chain via 3 HSO interface are possible
– Up to 3 MC-RRH in each Chain are supported
– One Chain becomes one OLC. Totally 3 OLC with these 3 chain and 6 MC-RRH
are supported.

BTS Support of Synchronous Ethernet BTS Support of Synchronous Ethernet Overview
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
A functional BTS must be synchronized in order to work properly, for this there are two
types of BTS synchronizations, as follows:
• frequency synchronization
• time synchronization (or network synchronization of radio timeslots) which reduces
the radio interferences and there so increases network capacity and throughput
It is important to notice that the frequency synchronizations can be obtain from the time
synchronization, but the time synchronizations cannot be obtain from the frequency
synchronizations.
There are several solutions to obtain the BTS synchronization:
• E1 Synchro (frequency synchronizations) - requires a TDM network
• NTP (time synchronizations)
• GPS (time synchronizations) - requires a GPS module
• SynchE (Synchronous Ethernet) (time synchronizations) - requires an Ethernet
network
The synchronizations of the BTS via the Synchronous Ethernet (or for short SyncE)
solution is the focus of this feature.

BTS Support of Synchronous Ethernet Description
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
In Synchronous Ethernet, frequency is transferred over a communication link simply as
the timing of the bits in the line. This presupposes that the transmitting port transmits
continuously. This clock mechanism is almost the same as that of traditional SDH
network.
Special backhaul transport equipment are needed in order to support SyncE, along the
whole chain from clock source up to the BTS.
A basic principle within Alcatel-Lucent BSS is that Ethernet connectivity has the highest
priority: if synchronous Ethernet is not operational, than another BTS synchronization
mode has to be used, but Ethernet connectivity should not be restricted

BTS Support of Synchronous Ethernet Description
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Synchronization mode priority
BTS synchronization modes are ordered accordingly to their priority:
1. GPS
2. SyncE
3. NTP
4. PCM
5. Free running
The following table shows the availability of each synchronizations solutions with the
TDM and IP BTSs .
Clock Quality
Globally, Synchronous Ethernet has a limited offset range of 4.6 ppm in holdover unlike
the (native) IEEE 802.3 Ethernet limit of 100 ppm. There are two different set of ITU
standards defines the clock quality codes: G8262 and G781
In normal networks where a PRC is used to generate the SyncE frequency, and all
networks elements are correctly propagating this SyncE frequency, the GSM BTS (like
the WCDMA NB and the LTE eNB) will get SSM QL = PRC = 0x2.
Hardware Coverage
Overview
The feature is supported only with GSM IP BTS equipped with SUMX board.
The network to which the BTSs are attached must support the transmission of the SyncE
specific messages. Also a reference clock must be attached to the network and configured
to transmit synchronization messages towards the network elements that are attached to
the network.

....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
This feature updates the Password Policy Management on OMC-R by adding the
Password Dictionary Checking option in the Administration facilities window. This
option can be turned on/off and allows additional checks to be performed on newly set
passwords.
When the Password Dictionary Checking status is on, any new password must comply
with the following rule: it must not be a word included in the English password dictionary
file.
If the new password does not comply to these rules, an error message is displayed and the
user must enter a new password. The checks for these rules are performed when the user
resets/changes the password or a new user is created with the possibility of password
changing. If the Password Dictionary Checking status is off, then the OMC-R check
syntax (set when the user creates a new password policy) will be enforced depending on
how is set: on or off. If both Password Dictionary Checking and OMC-R Check Syntax
are off and also Password Change is off for a new user, then no check is enforced during
OMC-R login and the new user is allowed to login with the password set/reset by the
administrator.

TC Redundancy (Automatic Mode) Description
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
This feature is designed to re-route the traffic of the BTSs in case of TC failure.
When a TC goes out of service, the BSC starts automatically to reassign all BTSs
(previously connected to the faulty TC) to redundant TCs without any BTS restart.
The whole BSS area will remain in service in case of TC failure, but with limited
capacity.
Note: If the signalling interface between the BSC and the MSC is configured with TC
resources, then the feature is efficient only if the signaling resources are distributed on
several TCs.

MOCN Description
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
2 or more (max 5) Operators can share physically a part or the whole of their Radio
Access Network, the licensed spectrum, but do not share any Core Network Node. The
basic characteristics of a MOCN (Multiple Operator Core Network) are:
• The BSS is fully and globally shared. No dedicated spectrum per operator.
• The BSS chooses the MSC/SGSN based on adapted A and Gb Flex algorithms, the
choice of the Core node being based on mobile subscription (and not on MSC/SGSN
considerations as with A and Gb Flex).
• Only one PLMN-ID is broadcasted.
• The shared Cells network infrastructure is managed by a single entity (one of the
operators, a Joint-Venture, or a third-party).
• All cells of a Location Area belonging to the shared network are shared.
• No impacts on mobiles.
Hardware Coverage
Overview
The feature is supported only with:
• 9130 BSC Evolution
• 9130 MFS Evolution.

....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
This feature is designed to ensure the supervision mechanism between BTS and TC.
The supervision of the BTS/TC link is handeled by the BTS.
The BTS uses the timer TRAU_CONNECTION_TIMEOUT, to send periodically the
message IPTCH_ping (the message is part of the MUXTRAUP layer).
In case of no answer received (no DL MUXTRAUP nor IPTCH_ping answer ), after 4
periodic retries, the BTS raise the alarm “IPTCH link OoO” (out of order) to inform the
operator.
The alarm “IPTCH link OoO” is cleared at the reception of MUXTRAUP or IPTCH_ping
response.
Hardware Coverage
Overview
The feature is supported only with:
• 9125 Transcoder
• BTS equipped with SUMX board.

GP load balancing for 9130 MFS - static solutions Description
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
The feature introduces new characteristics for the BSS cells distribution over multi-GPU.
It adds a new dimension to the reshuffling algorithm, based on the usage of the existing
counters reported by the GPs, with the restriction that the old algorithm still applies in
case of a mix of GP2/GP3 associated to a BSC or the PS_CELL_LOAD_HISTORY
parameter is not completed for all cells associated to the BSC.
The MFS retrieves the CPU load for each GP and determines the highest CPU load, it
reports these CPU loads to the OMC and then at OMC, checks will be done to determine
if an unbalanced situation exists.
In case of an unbalanced situation, the OMC alerts the operator, which can decide about
the need of reshuffling the cells.
Hardware Coverage
Overview
The feature is supported only with 9130 MFS Evolution.

There is no specific activation scenario.

Allocation/retention priority (ARP)
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
This feature introduces new characteristics for a PFC, according to which the BSS can
determine if a PFC should be established immediately or if the PFC creation or
modification request can be queued (e.g. in case of resources congestion). Additional
parameters indicate to the BSS if it can force the release of a lower priority PFC to serve
another one, and whether a PFC is marked as "pre-emptable" or not.
If the BSS supports the ARP feature and receives the ARP parameters from the SGSN, it
is mandatory for the BSS to consider the priority. The operator can decide on the mapping
of the different profiles on up to 12 best effort priority levels. The resulting priority is
used to schedule the TBF (either DL radio blocks or USFs) in MAC layer.
Hardware Coverage
Overview
The feature is not network element dependent.

PCC - Improvement on GPRS Packet QoS management - Description
Increased multi-TBF per PDCH for instant message service
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
In the BSS, the maximum number of TBF per PDCH is provided by MAX_DL_TBF_SP-
DCH or MAX_UL_TBF_SPDCH. The aim of this feature is for instant message TBF to
be able to go beyond these limits, while not exceeding the maximum upper range of these
parameters.
For a PDCH where an instant message TBF is allocated, a parameter sets the occupancy
rate of that TBF on the PDCH for RRM-PRH radio resources allocation. When a TBF is
to be allocated, for each PDCH, RRM-PRH estimates the total number of TBF and the
available capacity of that PDCH.

Max threshold for HR usage per cell Description
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
When AMR-HR coding is enabled in a cell, the new channel allocations are made in
AMR-HR channels as soon as the cell load increases above a configured threshold.
Moreover, the on-going AMR-FR calls may be handed-over to AMR-HR channels to free
some radio resources. As a result, in extreme load conditions all the on-going calls in the
cell will be allocated to AMR-HR channels and the cell capacity may double. When the
load increases on all the cells of a BSS the number of the AMR-HR calls in the BSS may
become very high. This can create an extreme load on the A interface.
With the Max threshold for HR usage per cell feature, the number of the maximum
AMR-HR channles per cell can be limited and so the load of the A interface can be more
preciously controlled. This is done with a new parameter called MAX_TCH_HAL-
F_RATE_PER_CELL and its value is expressed in percentage.
If the cell load is below the MAX_TCH_HALF_RATE_PER_CELL then the BSC
choose the codec type used for a new call from the preferred list of codecs supported by
the mobile station (exactly like before). Also the handover from AMR-FR to AMR-HR
channels is permitted.
If the cell load surpasses MAX_TCH_HALF_RATE_PER_CELL then the new calls
can not be allocated to a AMR-HR channel, so the codec used is one of the remaining
from the preferred list of supported codecs type for each mobile station.

Overview
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
SFTP, or the SSH File Transfer Protocol is a network protocol that provides secure file
access, secure file transfer, and secure file management functionality over any reliable
data stream.
This feature introduces the OMC-R support for SFTP, while keeping the existing FTP
services provided using the ProFTPD server. In the case of SFTP, for each ProFTPD user,
a new UNIX user is created.
The SFTP user names are based on the existing FTP ones. The naming rules are the
following:
• if the FTP user name already contains the ftp suffix, the new sftp suffix is used instead
• if the FTP user name does not contain the ftp suffix, the new sftp suffix is just added
to it.
The general characteristics of the SFTP users are:
• their home directory is /var/sftp/<user name>
• their group is <sftpgroup>, which is a new one
• each home directory is accessible only to its owner and a list of empty directories is
created based on the entries found in /alcatel/var/share/AFTR for the corresponding
FTP user.
The OMC-R's Administration Facilities application includes user management facilities
for the SFTP accounts:
• password change
• enable account
• disable account
The accounts can be configured on the Master OMC-R only.
The FTP services can be disabled, for security reasons, by accessing SVC Configuration
from Administration Facilities -> Configuration.

....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
This feature introduces a new way of resolving the issues that can be caused by Current
Alarm List (CAL) size limit.
A new parameter has been introduced in order to enforce the following mechanism: when
the Alarm Surveillance database (AS) receives a clear event, it checks if an alarm
matching the clear event already exists in CAL. If there is an alarm that matches the clear
event, this alarm's status is changed to “Cleared”.
If there is no alarm matching the clear event (this may be because the alarm has already
been purged), there are two possibilities:
• If the parameter is set to false, the clear event is ignored
• If the parameter is set to true, the clear event is purged into the Historical Alarm List
(HAL).
AS sorts on event date and time attribute. This helps to show the clear event next to its
associated alarm(s) for the alarms which have clearTime in additionalInfo (example:
alarms received from BSSIM and MFSIM).
There could be more than one not cleared alarms in HAL that have the same event date
and time. In this case, an additional criterion that can be used for the correlation is
alarmKey. For the post processing scripts or tools, the use of the alarmKey is mandatory
in order to find the matching between the clear event and associated alarm(s).

....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
Previously to B12.2Ed.4 the MC module configuration facility was a standalone one. The
feature brings an important update of the BSSUSM views by integrating the power
calculation tool within this OMC-R module.
It allows the operator to provide sector level parameters.
The input parameters for the power calculation algorithm are:
• the number of 2G GSM carriers per band (GSM/DCS)
• the average other standard ratio per band of capable modules
• the number of modules configured as 1PA-2G/1PA-other standard, per band
• the number of MC modules configured as other standard only.
With this information, the OMC-R computes a balanced MC modules configuration for
each module of the BTS.
The outputs are:
• the average power per 2G carrier power in Watts on the considered PA (this is the
nominal average power per 2G carrier allocated on the specific PA)
• the average power per 2G carrier power in dBm on the considered PA (this is the
nominal average power per 2G carrier allocated on the specific PA)
• the average power budget for other standard (ie for all 3G/4G carriers) power in Watts
on the considered PA (This is the power budget available for all other standard 3G/4G
carriers on the considered PA)
• the average power budget for other Standard (ie for all 3G/4G carriers) power in dBm
on the considered PA (This is the power budget available for all other standard 3G/4G
carriers on the considered PA)
Each time an input parameter is updated for one given module, the resulting average
power per 2G carrier and the average power budget for OSF (3G/4G) carriers on the
considered PA are automatically computed by the OMC-R and displayed in dBm only.

Overview
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
This feature offers the possibility to block sending alarms to Network Management
Center (NMC) for selected network elements (BSC/BTS/TC/MFS). The main purpose is
to reduce the alarm flow towards NMC.
The basic idea is to allow the user to set a selected network element in the “engineering
mode”, the new behavior being that:
• The NE behavior inside the OMC is not changed, alarms are normally displayed in
FMUSM
• The alarms concerning the specific NE are not forwarded to NMC
• The PM counters are reported as normal
The feature is activated in OMC via 'EN_ENGINEERING_MODE' parameter at
BSC/BTS/TC/MFS level. When this flag is enabled, no alarm for this NE is sent to NMC,
except the alarms raised before the engineering mode was switched on.
In case of the BTS, the engineering mode does not interfere with the “commercial usage”,
the specific behavior applied when the BTS is in “non commercial use” is the same
irrespective of the BTS engineering mode status.

Multiple RRH Logical Cell Description
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
Multiple RRH Logical Cell feature is used for the coverage of train tracks or in other
situations where concentrated traffic moves between sites.
Each Logical Cell consists of a multiple receive/transmit sites and has a number of TRXs.
Each TRX is supported in each receive/transmit site (RRH). The selection of the
supported RRH at a given moment is done by the BTS. In this configuration, the TRX
from one RRH is considered as "primary" and the other TRXs as "slave". The
primary/slave roles are assigned by the BTS.
The feature provides a larger coverage than a cell on a single RRH. without increasing the
capacity.
The mobile does not do a handover between receive/transmit sites.
The accumulated outage time is reduced.
For configurations and/or reconfigurations and other information related to Multiple RRH
Logical Cell feature follow One Logical Cell steps, cases and sections in the
documentation.
Hardware Coverage
Overview
The feature is supported only with:
• 9130 BSC Evolution

LCS Support GPS Description
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
The Location Services are end-user services, which provide the geographical location of
an MS (i.e. longitude, latitude and optionally altitude).
LCS is applicable to any target MS with possible restrictions on the supported positioning
methods depending on their capabilities.
The current implementation of the Alcatel Lucent BSS LCS includes:
• Cell-ID + TA
• Cell-ID + TA + NMR, where Cell-ID means Cell Identifier, TA Time Advance and
NMR Network Measurement Report.
GNSS means “Global Navigation Satellite System” which, among other satellite systems,
includes GPS. The feature allows to support on top the following GPS/GNSS positioning
methods:
• Autonomous mode. The MS determines its position based on signals received from
GNSS without assistance from network
• Assisted mode: MS-assisted or MS-based mode. The MS receives assistance data
from network. MS may support one or several GNSSs and the assistance data content
may vary depending on this capability.
The feature is supported:
• With 9130 BSC
• In CS domain only
• Over Lb itf (with an SMLC external to BSS).
A new supervision timer T_RRLP_SUP_LB is created in the context of Lb LCS, by
reusing T_Location timer.
The T_Location timer (existing but not used) belonged to the classic LCS positioning
method. It's HMI name is modified and the mandatory rules are removed.

MC-TRDU Overview
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
Feature considerations:
• For an MC RH swap, the TMA variables have to be stored and recovered.
• In this scope there is a specific scenario for the swap of one MC RH module, and only
one at a time: lock the MC RH, do an MC_RH Replacement Begin, disconnect old
module, connect the new one, MC_RH Replacement End and unlock the new module.
• The user must ensure that the commissioning data of the old module is applicable to
the new module
• Each time, only one module can be replaced
• MC_RH TEI, RRH_ID, sector ID, TMA setting, VSWR warning threshold, TRX
number, PA ratio parameters are the same
• Only MAC address and serial number are different.
Hardware Coverage
Overview
The feature is supported only with the following paths:
•
• Same type of modules: MC_RH 900 <-> MC_RH 900, MC_RH 1800 <-> MC_RH
1800
• Same type of module with different bands: MC_RRH 900 <-> MC_RRH 1800,
MC_TRDU 900 <-> MC_TRDU 1800
• Different types of modules: MC_RRH -> SB_RRH.
Note: For now only the following swap configurations are allowed and tested:
MC_TRDU 900 <-> MC_TRDU 900, MC_TRDU 1800 <-> MC_TRDU 1800. Only
these configurations are described in customer documentation.

• During a SUMX 19” swap, to restore the commissioning data on the new SUMX 19”,
a new step is mandatory: download from the BTS NEM PC the saved commissioning
data, data belonging to the initial SUMX 19” board.
• Following commissioning data are saved in top of the existing ones. BTS NEM
backup these data during offline or online commissioning operation. They are
recovered during the SUMX 19” swap operation by downloading them from the BTS
NEM PC. BTS NEM is the most suitable place to keep the BTS commissioning data
considering the space needed and interface change needed.
– TLV#394 MC-TRE configuration
– TLV#385 Alarm mapping

Cell Enlarged Frequency Span Description
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
The enlarged cell frequency span brings an enhancement to the checking mechanism of
TRX frequency span from OMC-R.
The feature enforces the BTS to check the bandwidth per MC-module when it receives
the radio configuration. If the bandwidth is larger than the MCPA frequency span (or PA
RF BW), the BTS sends an alarm about all involved MC-modules.
The feature is activated by default.
EN_ECFS_OMC is a new parameter introduced to activate/deactivate the feature.
This parameter indicates whether the OMC-R applies the normal cell MCPA frequency
span specific checks or the enlarged cell MCPA frequency span ones.
• If EN_ECFS_OMC is FALSE, the OMC-R applies the normal cell MCPA frequency
span specific checks. In this case the OMC-R raises an error if the mandatory rule is
not met.
• If EN_ECFS_OMC is TRUE, the OMC applies the enlarged cell MCPA frequency span
specific checks.
This means that the OMC raises a warning if, for at least one band B of the aim cell,
the highest frequency minus the lowest frequency used by all TRXs configured within
band B is greater than MC_MODULE_FREQUENCY_SPAN of at least one MC module
capable of band B under the aim cell - where B can be GSM or DCS, respectively.

The feature is supported for SB-RRH.

IP BSS Transmission Alarm Description
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
This feature enables customer to supervise the IP BTS transmission link (user plane)
through two new alarms in BSSoIP configuration.
The feature provides:
• A dedicated alarm, called “BSC-BTS IP link fluctuation”, which efficiently reflects
when an IP BTS transmission link is fluctuating during a predefined period of
supervision time.
For the “BSC-BTS IP link fluctuation” alarm, the trigger and clear mechanism is
based on the current LAPD link supervision mechanism with 2 new parameters
introduced.
• Another dedicated alarm, called “BSC-BTS IP link failure”, is raised when the IP BTS
transmission link is observed as failure. The purpose of the alarm is exactly the same
with the existing alarm “IPTCH link Out of Service” but it is reported from BSC side
and not from the BTS.
The “BSC-BTS IP link failure” alarm is fully based on the current LAPD link
supervision mechanism.
Previously related existing alarms:
• “IPTCH link Out of Service” dedicated for the IP BTS in case the transmission link
(also called traffic link, user plane link) is out of service. The alarm is generated by
the BTS, and send to BSC then to OMC via OML link.
• “LOSS-OF-ALL-CHANNEL” which indicates more root causes than just
transmission link is out of service.
Note: The following:
• “IPTCH link out of service” is kept
• “LOSS-OF-ALL-CHANNEL” is kept, but it is not referred by customer in IP
transmission alarm feature because it is too general.

....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Description
Overview
This feature enables the monitoring of the 9130 MFS Evolution OMCP HDD . In case of
errors an alarm is sent to OMC-R and the operator is informed of the problem.
The monitoring tool used is LogSurfer, which is a program for monitoring system logs in
real-time, and take predefined actions for specific error.
LogSurfer will be installed and configured to run on both MFS OMCP boards, to monitor
Linux system log.
If a HDD error is found an INDUS script is called to take predefined action:
• Because alarm only can be reported from the active OMCP, if it’s the active OMCP,
directly report the alarm
• If it’s standby OMCP, connects to active OMCP and reports the alarm.
If the HDD alarm is received at OMC-R, the operator has to reset the OMCP or replace
the OMCP according to the procedure.
