1.1.6 A-Interface Paging Measurement

(PAGE.NetworkInterfOrig.BSC)
Overview
A-Interface paging measurement is used to measure the number of paging requests from the core
network.
The BSC may receive CS paging requests or PS paging requests from the core network. The
standard interfaces between the BSC and the network side include the A interface and the Gb
interface. CS paging requests from the MSC are sent to the BSC over the A interface, while PS
paging requests from the SGSN are first sent to the PCU over the Gb interface and then to the
BSC (or directly to the BSC when the PCU is built in the BSC). When the Gs interface between
the MSC and the SGSN is enabled, CS paging requests can be sent through the SGSN and the
PCU to the BSC. Figure 1 shows the networking diagram for the BSC, MSC, and SGSN.

Description
This counter provides the total number of internal inter-cell handovers attempts from 1800/1900
to 900/850/810 of all the cells controlled by a BSC. The BSC uses the handover algorithm to
decide whether a handover is required or not on the basis of the measurement reports. If a
handover is required, and if the source cell (current cell) and the target cell are two different
cells controlled by a BSC, the BSC initiates an internal inter-cell handover. This counter provides
the number of incoming internal inter-cell handover requests in the target cell.
This counter shows the frequency of inter-cell handovers initiated by the BSC. Along with the
counter Successful Internal Inter-Cell Handovers per BSC (1800/1900-900/850/810), the

Description
This counter provides the number of unsuccessful internal inter-cell handovers due to timer
expiry in all the cells controlled by a BSC. The types of channel include SDCCH, TCHF, and
TCHH.
The BSC sends an HO CMD message to the MS and starts a timer to wait for an HO CMP
message. The measurement is triggered when the timer expires. The measurement is based on
the channel type.
The intra-cell handover is of the following types: intra-cell handover in normal conditions, intra-
cell handover caused by dynamic channel conversion, intra-cell handover in concentric cells,
and AMR handover.
The cause values of handover failure include:

l No channel available
l Territorial resource request failure
l A interface failure
l Clear commands sent by MSC
l Timer expired during the waiting of handover completion
l RR cause for successful reconnections to old channels upon handover failure
The dynamic channel conversion is of the following types: TCHF to TCHH, TCHH to TCHF,
TCH to SDCCH, SDCCH to TCH, and PDCH to TCHF.
The concentric cell handover is of the following types: Underlaid subcell to overlaid subcell
(Underlay to Overlay) and Overlaid subcell to underlaid subcell (Overlay to Underlay).

Failure per BSC
Description
This counter provides the number of failed outgoing internal inter-cell handovers per BSC in
which the reconnection to the old channel succeeds.
In the outgoing internal inter-cell handover procedure, the BSC sends an HO CMD message to
the MS through the originating cell and initiates a timer to wait for an HO CMP message. If the
MS reconnects to the old channel and sends an HO FAIL message on the old channel before the
timer expires, the counter is measured based on the cause. The measurement object is the
originating cell.
The handover can be performed between GSM900/850/810 and GSM900/850/810, between

GSM1800/1900 and GSM1800/1900, or GSM900/850/810 and GSM1800/1900, or

Description
This measurement provides the number of failed incoming external inter-cell handovers due to
invalid messages in all the cells controlled by a BSC. In the incoming external inter-cell handover
procedure, the target BSC receives an HO REQ message from the MSC and decodes the HO
REQ message. If finding that the message is invalid during message decoding, the BSC collects
the number of failed incoming external inter-cell handovers according to the channel type, cross-
band handover type, and failure cause value.
The channel involved in the measurement can be SDCCH or TCH. The TCH can be a traffic
channel or a signaling channel.

The CIC resource of A interface is one of important factors that affect the application of the
terrestrial resource. The CIC of A interface is sent to the target BSC by the MSC through an HO

Description
This measurement provides the number of outgoing inter-cell handover requests of all the cells
controlled by a BSC due to uplink signal quality, including outgoing internal inter-cell handover
requests and outgoing external inter-cell handover requests.
The BSC uses the handover algorithm to decide whether a handover is required based on the
measurement reports submitted by the MS. If a handover is required, and if the source cell
(current cell) and the target cell are two different cells controlled by one BSC, the BSC initiates
an internal inter-cell handover. If the handover cause value is uplink quality, the BSC measures
the number of outgoing internal inter-cell handover requests due to uplink signal quality in the
source cell. If the source cell (current cell) and the target cell are two different cells controlled
by different BSCs, the BSC initiates an external inter-cell handover. If the handover cause value
is uplink quality, the BSC measures the number of outgoing external inter-cell handover requests
due to uplink signal quality in the source cell.

BSC6900 GSM
1.2.11 Access Measurement per BSC(BSC.KpiAccess.BSCRPT)
Overview
When an MS requires network services for reasons such as MOC, MTC, emergency call, call
re-establishment, location updating, packet call, and LMU+Reserved, the MS sends the BTS a
CHAN REQ message on the RACH. After receiving this message, the BTS reports a CHAN
RQD message to the BSC to request a signaling channel.
After receiving the CHAN RQD message, the BSC assigns and activates a signaling channel to
the MS. If the BSC receives a CHAN ACTIV ACK message from the BTS, the signaling channel
is ready for assignment. The BSC sends an IMM ASS CMD message, requesting the MS to
access the specified signaling channel. This signaling channel is an SDCCH or a TCH.
After receiving an SABM frame from the MS, the BTS sends an EST IND message to the BSC.
After receiving the EST IND message that carries an MM message (CM SERV REQ, LOC UPD
REQ, IMSI DTCH, PAG RSP, CM RE-EST REQ, SS ACTIVATION, and LCS), the BSC
requests the MSC to establish a connection on the A interface and transparently transmits the
MM message to the MSC.

1.3 Measurement of BTS IPPM Performance(BTSIPPM)

Overview
This measurement object is measured in a BTS and indicates statistics related to BTS IPPM.
With support from both the BSC and the BTS, the IPPM function enables a BTS to detect the
QoS of the bearing network and monitor the transmission network effectively. Before querying
the performance measurement, you need to enable the IPPM function by running a MML
command (ACT BTSIPPM for BSC6900 V900R014).
Measurement Units
Unit Description
BTSM.BTSIPPM Measurement Related to BTS IPPM
1.3.1 Measurement Related to BTS IPPM(BTSM.BTSIPPM)

Overview
The BTS IP Performance Monitor (PM) uses Forward Monitoring (FM) and Backward
Reporting (BR) to check for packet loss over channels. For measurement on the BTS side, the
BTS periodically sends FM messages to indicate the number of outgoing packets, the number
of bytes, and sending time. The BSC responds with BR messages after receiving the FM message
to report the number of received packets, the number of received bytes, the receiving time of
PM message, the sending time of BR response. The BTS calculates the packet loss rate,
transmission delay and jitter according to the BR response returned from the BSC.

Description
This measurement provides the number of times that the PDUs in the buffer are discarded after
the BSC receives the FLUSH LL PDUs in a granularity period. This measurement is used to

cell reselection, if the FLUSH LL PDUs sent from the SGSN to the BSC do not contain the
information about the target cell, all the LLC PDUs in the buffer of the originating cell will be
deleted. In this situation, PS services may be disrupted until the LLC or IP layer transfers the
data again.

BSC6900 GSM
Description
This counter provides the average power decrease on the interfering frequencies in a
measurement period when there is a 2.0 MHz frequency spacing between the GSM and UMTS
networks. This counter indicates the average power decrease extent for the frequencies that cause
interference on the 2.0 MHz-spacing UMTS frequency after frequency-based power control is
enabled.
Measurement point
The measurement is triggered when the BTS decreases the power on the frequencies that cause
interference on the 2.0 MHz-spacing UMTS frequency. The measurement is performed for
different power decrease extents.
The value of this counter equals to total power decrease on GSM 2.0 MHz interfering frequency
dividing by the total duration for power decrease on GSM 2.0 MHz interference frequency.
The total power decrease on GSM 2.0 MHz interfering frequency is calculated by the following
formula:
1.5 x Duration for 1 to 2 dB power decrease on GSM 2.0 MHz interference frequency + 3.5 x
Duration for 3 to 4 dB power decrease on GSM 2.0 MHz interference frequency + 5.5 x Duration

These counters provide the number of calls that support each speech version and the number of
speech version messages that are received in the cell.
Measurement point
The number of speech version messages and the number of speech version requests are measured
when the BSC successfully decodes the speech version out of the received setup, emergency
setup, or call confirmed messages from the MS. If no speech version information is contained
in those messages, no measurement is performed. For example: If the BSC decodes the full rate
speech version 1 information out of a setup message received from the MS, both A0401A and
A0409A are incremented by one.

Description
In the immediate assignment procedure, the BSS assigns a signaling channel to an MS. After
the MS sets up an RR connection with the BSS, the MS sets up an MM connection and a CC
connection to the MSC on this signaling channel. The MSC assigns an A interface circuit to the
MS in the ASS REQ message based on the CC connection request from the MS and specifies
the service type of this call and the type of the channel that can be assigned to the call. Upon
receipt of the ASS REQ message from the MSC, the BSC assigns a proper channel for the access
of the MS based on the service type and the channel type specified in the ASS REQ message.
The service type can be one of the following three:

BSC6900 GSM
l Signaling service
l Speech service
l Data service
When the channel assigned by the MSC is used for speech services, the assigned channel is of
the following types:
l Full rate TCH channel
l Half rate TCH channel
l Full or Half rate TCH channel, full rate preferred, changes between full rate and half rate
allowed
l Full or half rate TCH channel, half rate preferred, changes between full rate and half rate
allowed
l Full or half rate TCH channel, full rate preferred, changes between full rate and half rate
not allowed
not allowed
l Full or half rate TCH channel, changes between full and half rate allowed
l Full or half rate TCH channel, changes between full and half rate not allowed
Huawei BSC supports all of the eight channel types.
When the channel assigned by the MSC is used for data services, the assigned channel is one of
the following types:
l Full rate TCH channel
l Half rate TCH channel
l Full or Half rate TCH channel, Full rate preferred, changes between full rate and half rate
allowed
allowed
l Full or half rate TCH channel, full rate preferred, changes between full rate and half rate
not allowed
not allowed
l Full rate TCH channels in a multislot configuration, changes of the radio interface rate per
channel allowed
l Full rate TCH channels in a multislot configuration, changes of the radio interface rate per
channel not allowed
Huawei BSC supports the first six channel types.
These counters provide the number of times that the BSC receives the ASS REQ message based
on the service type and channel type specified in the ASS REQ message.
l The counters "A3100A: CELL.ASS.REQ.SIG.TCH" and "A3100K:
CELL.ASS.REQ.TIMES.SIG.CHAN.SDCCH" provide the number of times that the BSC
receives the ASS REQ message in which the service type is specified as signaling service.
l The rest counters as listed below provide the numbers of ASS REQ messages received by
the BSC, in which the service type indicates speech service or data service.
– A3100B: CELL.ASS.REQ.TCHF.ONLY

BSC6900 GSM
– A3100C: CELL.ASS.REQ.TCHH.ONLY

Description
Upon receipt of an ASS REQ message, the BSC assigns a channel based on the channel type
specified in the ASS REQ message and then sends a CHAN ACT message to the BTS. If the
BSC receives a CHAN ACT ACK message from the BTS, the BSC considers that the channel
is successfully activated. At the same time, the BSC connects the internal circuit based on the
A interface CIC specified in the ASS REQ message. Then the BSC sends an ASS CMD message
to the MS and waits for the MS to access the specified channel. The ASS CMD message carries
the information on the ready channel, such as channel type, channel number, and frequency
hopping information. The MS attempts to access the specified channel based on the channel
number specified in the ASS CMD message. After successfully accessing the channel, the MS
reports an ASS CMP message. Upon receipt of the ASS CMP message, the BSC sends an ASS
CMP message to the MSC.
If the current cell does not have available channels and its directed retry switch is on, the BSC
selects a proper adjacent cell based on the measurement report from the MS to trigger an outgoing
internal inter-cell handover with the destination channel type being the traffic channel. If the
handover is successful, the BSC sends an ASS CMP message to the MSC.
Suppose the MS already seizes a TCH for the signaling service in the immediate assignment
procedure. When receiving an ASS REQ message, the BSC determines whether the channel
mode specified in the ASS REQ message can be obtained from the channel that the MS currently
seizes. If the channel mode specified in the ASS REQ message can be obtained from the channel
that the MS currently seizes, the BSC enters the Mode Modify procedure and sends a MODE

BSC6900 GSM
MODIFY message to the BTS to instruct the BTS to change the channel mode. If the BSC
receives a MODE MODIFY ACK message indicating that the BTS channel mode is successfully
changed, the BSC sends a CHAN MODE MODIFY message to the MS. After successfully
changing the channel mode, the MS reports a CHAN MODE MODIFY ACK message to the
BSC. Upon receipt of the CHAN MODE MODIFY ACK message, the BSC sends an ASS CMP
message to the MSC.
When receiving the ASS CMD or HO CMD message, the MS attempts to access a new channel.
If the MS fails to access the new channel, the MS attempts to reconnect to the old channel. If
the BSC receives the ASS FAIL or RR STATUS message from the MS, the BSC considers that
the MS has successfully reconnected to the old channel and then decides whether to retry the
Um interface assignment procedure based on the data configuration. The maximum retry times
are decided by the data configuration. The procedure that takes place at each retry is the same
as the procedure described above. When the maximum retry times are reached, the MS
reconnects to the old channel and the BSC sends an ASS FAIL message to the MSC.
The main causes of assignment failure include:

l 1) Causes related to state machine and the ASS REQ message:
– The current call state machine of the BSC should not receive an ASS REQ message.
– The ASS REQ message cannot be interpreted.
– The A interface CIC carried in the ASS REQ message is unavailable.
– The A interface CIC carried in the ASS REQ message is occupied by another call.
l 2) Causes related to resource allocation:
– No traffic channel is available.
– No Abis resource is available.
– The requested speech version is unavailable.
– The BSC fails to obtain the terrestrial resources.
l 3) Causes related to access on the Um interface:
– The MS fails to access the new channel and then reconnects to the old channel.
– The timer for the BSC to wait for an ASS CMP message expires.
l 4) Abnormal causes:
– A fault occurs on the A interface.
– The MSC clears the call.
The counters related to assignment failure are defined below.
l A312S: CELL.ASS.FAIL.SIG This counter provides the number of failed assignments
when the service type specified in the ASS REQ message indicates the signaling service.
It provides the number of times that the BSC sends an ASS FAIL or CLEAR REQ message
to the MSC, receives a CLEAR CMD message from the MSC, and locally releases the call
when the service type specified in the ASS REQ message indicates the signaling service.
l The counter ""A3129I:CELL.ASS.FAIL.INVALID.STATE"" provides the number of
ASS FAIL messages sent by the BSC to the MSC when the BSC receives an ASS REQ
message that is not expected by the internal state machine of the BSC (for example, the
state machine is in release state).
l The counter ""A3129J:CELL.ASS.FAIL.INVALID.MSG.CONTENTS"" provides the
number of ASS FAIL messages sent by the BSC to the MSC when the BSC receives an
ASS REQ message but the ASS REQ message fails to be decoded (for example, an error

BSC6900 GSM
occurs during the decoding of an IE, such as CHANNEL TYPE, CIC, or Layer 3 header
information).
l The following counters indicate the numbers of failed assignments when the service type
specified in the ASS REQ message indicates the speech or data service.
– 1) The following counters indicate the numbers of failed assignments due to various
reasons after the BSC sends an ASS CMD or HO CMD message. They indicate the
number of ASS FAIL messages sent by the BSC to the MSC after the BSC sends an
ASS CMD or HO CMD message, or the number of CLEAR REQ messages sent by the
BSC to the MSC when the MS initiatively or passively releases the call, or the number
of CLEAR CMD messages received by the BSC from the MSC based on the access

Description
Upon receipt of an ASS REQ message, the BSC assigns a channel based on the channel type
specified in the ASS REQ message and then sends a CHAN ACT message to the BTS. If the
BSC receives a CHAN ACT ACK message from the BTS, the BSC considers that the channel
is successfully activated. At the same time, the BSC connects the internal circuit based on the
A interface CIC specified in the ASS REQ message. Then the BSC sends an ASS CMD message
to the MS and waits for the MS to access the specified channel. The ASS CMD message carries
the information on the ready channel, such as channel type, channel number, and frequency
hopping information. The MS attempts to access the specified channel based on the channel
number specified in the ASS CMD message. After successfully accessing the channel, the MS
reports an ASS CMP message. Upon receipt of the ASS CMP message, the BSC sends an ASS
CMP message to the MSC.
If the current cell does not have available channels and its directed retry switch is on, the BSC
selects a proper adjacent cell based on the measurement report from the MS to trigger an outgoing
internal inter-cell handover with the destination channel type being the traffic channel. If the
handover is successful, the BSC sends an ASS CMP message to the MSC.
Suppose the MS already seizes a TCH for the signaling service in the immediate assignment
procedure. When receiving an ASS REQ message, the BSC determines whether the channel
mode specified in the ASS REQ message can be obtained from the channel that the MS currently
seizes. If the channel mode specified in the ASS REQ message can be obtained from the channel
that the MS currently seizes, the BSC enters the Mode Modify procedure and sends a MODE
MODIFY message to the BTS to instruct the BTS to modify the channel mode. If the BSC
receives a MODE MODIFY ACK message indicating that the BTS channel mode is successfully
modified from the BTS, the BSC sends a CHAN MODE MODIFY message to the MS. After
successfully modifying the channel mode, the MS reports a CHAN MODE MODIFY ACK
message to the BSC. Upon receipt of the CHAN MODE MODIFY ACK message, the BSC
sends an ASS CMP message to the MSC.
These counters provide the number of times that the BSC sends the ASS CMP message to the
MSC after the BSC receives an ASS CMP message or a CHAN MODE MODIFY ACK message

BSC6900 GSM
from the MS based on the speech version and the channel type specified in the ASS CMD
message or the CHAN MODE MODIFY message. The counter does not cover the number of
completed assignments in the directed retry. The speech versions consist of full-rate speech
version 1, full-rate speech version 2, full-rate speech version 3, half-rate speech version 1, half-
rate speech version 2, and half-rate speech version 3. The channel type can be TCHF or TCHH.
Measurement point
As shown in Figure 1, Figure 2 and Figure 3, each time the BSC sends an ASS CMP message
to the MSC after receiving an ASS CMP message or a CHAN MODE MODIFY ACK message
from the MS, the counter is incremented by one.

SE (Um Cause)
Description
This counter provides the number of failed assignments concerning the Um interface.
l In normal assignment procedure, after sending the ASS CMD message to the MS, the BSC
starts the assignment success timer.This measurement involves the assignment failures
received during the time for assignment success response and the failures concerning the
reception of the RR STATUS message without further reassignment.
l In normal assignment procedure, the failures are those received before the expiry of the
timer for assignment success response.
l In direct retry procedure, after sending the HO CMD message to the MS, the BSC starts
the handover success timer. This measurement involves the handover failures received
during the time for handover success response and the failures concerning the reception of
the RR STATUS message without further reassignment.
l In direct retry procedure, the failures are those received before the expiry of the timer for
handover success response.
Measurement point
After sending an assignment request message to the BSC, the MSC waits for the MS to send an
ASS CMP message to the BSC. This counter is measured in the following situations:
l The MS sends to the BSC a DATA INDICATION message, which contains the Um
assignment failure cause. If the BSC does not perform reassignment after receiving the
message, the counter is incremented by one. See measurement point A in Figure 1.
l The MS sends an RR STATUS message to the BSC. If the cause value carried in the
message is not Semantically incorrect message, Invalid mandatory information, Message
type non-existent or not implemented, or Conditional IE error, and reassignment is not
performed, this counter is incremented by one. See measurement point B in Figure 1.
l After sending an assignment command message to the MS, the BSC starts T3107, which
is specified for assignment complete response. If the timer expires, the counter is
incremented by one. See measurement point C in Figure 1.

BSC6900 GSM
l After receiving the assignment request message from the MSC, the BSC does not initiate
direct retry because no channel is available for use. The MS is handed over to a new cell,
in which the MS sends to the BSC a DATA INDICATION message containing the
assignment failure cause over the Um interface. If the BSC does not perform reassignment
after receiving the message, the counter is incremented by one. See measurement point A
in Figure 2.

AUSE Failures (Um Cause)
Description
This counter provides the number of mode modification failures concerning the Um cause in a
measurement period. The failures comprise timeout failures and mode modification failures over
the Um interface.
Measurement point
After sending a CHANNEL MODE MODIFY message to the MS, the BSC waits for
modification success message responded from the MS. This counter is measured in the following
situations:
l The MS sends a CHANNEL MODE MODIFY ACKNOWLEDGE message to the BSC.
If the Channel Mode field in the message is different from that saved in the CHANNEL
MODE MODIFY message, the counter is incremented by one. See measurement point A
in Figure 1.
l The MS sends an RR STATUS message to the BSC. If the cause value carried in the
message is not Semantically incorrect message, Invalid mandatory information, Message
type non-existent or not implemented, or Conditional IE error, and reallocation is not
performed, this counter is incremented by one. See measurement point B in Figure 1.
l The BSC sends a CHANNEL MODE MODIFY message to the MS and starts the timer
specified for the mode modification response. If the timer expires, the counter is
incremented by one. See measurement point C in Figure 1.

l In the immediate assignment procedure, the BSC successfully assigns a channel and sends
a CHAN ACTIV message to the BTS. If the BSC does not receive a response message from
the BTS after the timer for waiting for a channel activation response expires, the
corresponding counters related to channel activation timeout are incremented by one.
Measurement point
In the immediate assignment procedure, the BSC receives a CHANNEL REQUIRED message
from the BTS. If the BSC successfully assigns a channel and sends a CHAN ACTIV message
to the BTS, certain counters are incremented by one for the cell where the channel resides based
on the channel type and the call type:
l R3300A: Channel Activation Attempts in Immediate Assignment Procedure (SDCCH)
l R3307A: Channel Activation Attempts in Immediate Assignment Procedure (TCHF)
l R3308A: Channel Activation Attempts in Immediate Assignment Procedure (TCHH)
In the immediate assignment procedure, the BSC sends a CHAN ACTIV message to the BTS.
If the BTS returns a CHAN ACTIV NACK message indicating the channel activation failure,
certain counters are incremented by one for the cell where the channel resides based on the
channel type and the call type:
l R3330B: CHAN ACTIV NACK Messages Sent by BTS in Internal Intra-Cell Handover
Procedure (SDCCH)
Procedure (TCHF)
Procedure (TCHH)
In the immediate assignment procedure, the BSC sends a CHAN ACTIV message to the BTS
and starts an internal timer (5s by default) to wait for a CHAN ACTIV ACK message. If the
BSC does not receive the CHAN ACTIV ACK message after the timer expires, certain counters
are incremented by one for the cell where the channel resides based on the channel type and the
call type:
l R3300C: Channel Activation Timeouts in Immediate Assignment Procedure (SDCCH)

Description
After receiving a Local Channel Request message from the BTS, the BSC assigns a TCH and
sends a CHAN ACTIV message to the BTS. Meanwhile, the BSC takes statistics of the counters
related to the number of channel activations. If the BTS responds with a CHAN ACTIV NACK
message, the BSC takes statistics of the counters related to the number of channel activation
negative acknowledgements. After sending a CHANNEL ACTIVATION message, the BSC
starts a timer to wait for a response from the BTS. If the BSC does not receive any response after
the timer expires, the BSC takes statistics of the counters related to the number of channel
activation timeouts.
Along with Number of Local Channel Activations and Number of Local Channel Activations
Nack, this counter is used to locate the cause for low call setup success rate.
Measurement point
After receiving a Local Channel Request message from the BTS, the BSC assigns a TCH and
sends a CHAN ACTIV message to the BTS. Meanwhile, the BSC takes statistics of the following
counters in the cell where the TCH is assigned:
l R3301A:CELL.LUM.CH.ACT.TCHF
l R3301B:CELL.LUM.CH.ACT.TCHH
If the BTS responds with a CHAN ACTIV NACK message, it indicates that the channel
activation fails. In this case, the BSC takes statistics of the following counters in the cell where
the TCH is assigned:
l R3301C:CELL.LUM.CH.ACT.NACK.TCHF

BSC6900 GSM
l R3301D:CELL.LUM.CH.ACT.NACK.TCHH
After assigning a TCH and sending a CHAN ACTIV message to the BTS, the BSC immediately
starts a timer with the default timer value of five seconds to wait for a CHAN ACTIV ACK
message. If the BSC does not receive a CHAN ACTIV message from the BTS before the timer
expires, the BSC takes statistics of the following counters in the cell where the TCH is assigned:

Description
After the MS seizes a channel, the BTS sends the BSC an ERR IND message, indicating that
call drops occur on the Um interface because of the abnormal connection at the radio link layer.
If the cause value carried in the ERR IND message is timer T200 expired (N200+1) times (0x01),
unsolicited DM response, multiple frame established state: perform abnormal release(0x05), or
sequence error (0x07), this measurement provides the number of call drops due to ERR IND on
the basis of the channel type (SDCCH, TCHF, or TCHH), the service type (signaling or traffic),
the concentric attribute (overlaid subcell or underlaid subcell), and the cause value.
Measurement point
The specific counter is incremented by one when the BSC receives an ERR IND message. The
counter is measured at A1, as shown in Figure 1, Figure 2, Figure 3, Figure 4, and Figure 5.

Description
After the MS seizes a channel, the BTS sends the BSC a CONN FAIL IND message, indicating
that call drops occur on the Um interface because of the abnormal connection at the radio link

BSC6900 GSM
layer. If the cause value carried in the CONN FAIL message received by the BSC is radio link
failure (0x01), handover access failure (0x02), om intervention (0x07), or radio resource not
available (0x21), this measurement provides the number of call drops related to CONN FAIL
IND on the basis of the channel type (SDCCH, TCHF, or TCHH), the service type (signaling
or traffic), the concentric attribute (overlaid subcell or underlaid subcell), and the cause value.
Measurement point
The specific counter is incremented by one when the BSC receives a CONN FAIL IND message.

message indicating that call drops occur on the Um interface. This measurement provides the
number of call drops related to REL IND based on the channel type (SDCCH, TCHF, or TCHH),
the service type (signaling or traffic), and the concentric attribute (overlaid subcell or underlaid

Description
After seizing an SDCCH, the MS reports a measurement report to the BSC every 470 ms. After
seizing a TCH, the MS reports a measurement report to the BSC every 480 ms. If the BSC does
not receive a measurement report within a certain period (five minutes by default), the BSC
determines that a call drop occurs on the Um interface. This measurement provides the number
of call drops due to no MR on the basis of the channel type (SDCCH, TCHF, or TCHH), the
service type (signaling or traffic), and the concentric attribute (overlaid subcell or underlaid
subcell).
Measurement point
When the BSC does not receive a measurement report within a certain period of time (five
minutes, by default), the BSC sends a CLEAR REQUEST message to the MSC to release the
call, and the specific counter is incremented by one.
The specific counter is measured at A4, as shown in Figure 1, Figure 2, Figure 3, Figure 4, and
Figure 5.

Description
After the MS seizes a channel, the call may be released because of the internal error of the BSC.
Then, this measurement provides the number of call drops due to equipment failure on the basis
of the channel type (SDCCH, TCHF, or TCHH), the service type (signaling or traffic), and the
concentric attribute (overlaid subcell or underlaid subcell).
Measurement point
This counter is measured in the following situations, on the basis of channel type, service type,
and concentric attribute.
l A call drop occurs because of any of the following: TRX mutual aid; dynamic modification
of cell attributes, TRX frequencies, or TRX FH data; dynamic deletion of cells or TRXs;
blocking of cells, TRXs, or channels.
l The timer set to wait for the outgoing BSC handover command expires, or the clear request
message is received from the MSC before the timer expires, and the handover cause is other
causes than OM intervention, MSC triggering, or preemption.
l A call drop occurs because of call assignment failure during the handover.
l The MSC cannot send a short message because of the restriction on sending downlink short
messages in data configuration or because of flow control, and then the call is released.

BSC6900 GSM
l A call drop occurs because of software error.

Description
After an MS seizes a channel, if the system initiates a forced handover and the handover fails,
the BSC may initiate a call release procedure. This measurement provides the number of call
drops due to forced handovers on the basis of the channel type (SDCCH, TCHF, or TCHH), the
service type (signaling or traffic), and the concentric attribute (overlaid subcell or underlaid
subcell).
Measurement point
This counter is measured in the following situations:
l The timer expires before the outgoing BSC handover command is received, or the CLEAR
REQUEST message is received from the MSC before the timer expires, and the handover
cause is OM intervention, MSC triggering, or preemption.
l A call drop occurs during the emergency handover due to PDCH assignment, or the
handover due to TRX mutual aid, preemption, or blocking of cells, TRXs, and channels.

Description
The measurement of this type of counters provides the number of call drops after the call is set
up successfully. In the assignment procedure, a call is set up when the BSC receives the
CONNECT and the CONNECT ACKNOWLEDGE messages from the CC layer. In the
incoming-BSC handover procedure, a call is set up when the target cell sends a HANDOVER
COMPLETE message to the MSC. In the internal BSC handover procedure, a call is set up when
a HANDOVER PERFORMED message is sent to the MSC after the MS is handed over to the
target cell. The BSC measures this counter when call drop occur after the assignment procedure
or the handover procedure.
Measurement point
The specific counter is measured at A1, A2, A3, and A4, as shown in Figure 1, Figure 2, Figure

Description
This measurement provides the number of call drops due to various reasons after the MS seizes
a traffic channel.
The MS seizures a TCH in any of the following conditions:
The MS sends an ASS CMP message to the BSC;

BSC6900 GSM
The MS seizes a TCH and sends an HO CMP message to the BSC.
Measurement point
When a TCH is seized to carry traffic during a call, this counter is measured in the following
situations:
l The BSC receives an ERROR INDICATION message from the BTS because of the
abnormal connection at the radio link layer. For details, refer to GSM Rec. 08.58.
l The BSC receives a CONNECTION FAILURE INDICATION message from the BTS
because of the radio link fault or hardware fault. For details, refer to GSM Rec. 08.58.
l When receiving a DISC frame on a link layer connection in multi-frame mode, the BTS
sends a REL IND message to the BSC. For details, refer to GSM Rec. 08.58.
l The timer set to wait for an HANDOVER COMPLETE message expires during internal
intra-cell handover.
l The timer set to wait for an HANDOVER COMPLETE message expires during outgoing
internal inter-cell handover.
l The timer set to wait for an HANDOVER COMPLETE message expires during outgoing
external inter-cell handover.
l The timer set to wait for an HANDOVER COMPLETE message expires during incoming
external inter-cell handover.
l The BSC does not receive any measurement report within a certain period (by default, five
minutes) and sends a CLEAR REQUEST message to the MSC to release the call.
l The BSC detects a broken RSL and releases all the calls on the RSL.
l A call drop occurs due to any of the following situations: TRX mutual aid; dynamic
modification of cell attributes, TRX frequencies, or TRX FH data; dynamic deletion of
cells or TRXs; blocking of cells, TRXs, or channels.
message is received from the MSC before the timer expires.
l A call drop occurs due to call assignment failure during the handover.
l The MSC cannot send a short message because the data configuration prohibits the
downlink short messages or because of flow control and the call is released.
l A call drop occurs due to software error.
l After seizing a channel, the MS fails to start a local switching due to terrestrial resource
request failure, failures on the BTS side, or timer expiration.
l After a call is in the BSC or BTS local switching state, if the local switching cannot be
proceeded for handover or other reasons, the BSC restores the call to the common call state.
If the restoration fails due to terrestrial resource request failure or other reasons, the BSC
releases the call.
This is a calculated counter. See measurement points of the counters in the formula.

measurement provides the number of call releases due to handover failure caused by various
reasons on the radio interface after the MS accesses the signaling channel (SDCCH, TCHF, or
TCHH) assigned by the BSC.
Measurement point
When a signaling channel is seized during a call, this counter is measured in the following
situations:
1. The timer set to wait for an HO CMP message expires during internal intra-cell handover.
2. The timer set to wait for an HO CMP message expires during outgoing internal inter-cell
handover.
3. The timer set to wait for an HO CMP message expires during outgoing external inter-cell
handover.
4. The timer set to wait for an HO CMP message expires during incoming external inter-cell
handover.
This counter is calculated at A1, A2, and A3, as shown in Figure 1, Figure 2, Figure 3, and Figure
4.

Description
After seizing the SDCCH, the MS reports a measurement report to the BSC every 470 ms. After
seizing the TCH, the MS reports a measurement report to the BSC every 480 ms. If the BSC
does not receive a measurement report within a certain period (five minutes by default), the BSC
determines that a call drop occurs on the Um interface.
This measurement provides the number of call releases by the BSC because the BSC does not
receive any measurement report on the signaling channel within a certain period.
Measurement point
When an SDCCH or a TCH is seized to carry signaling during a call, if the BSC does not receive
a measurement report within a certain period (by default, five minutes), then the BSC sends a
CLEAR REQUEST message to the MSC to release the call. This counter is measured when the
BSC sends a CLEAR REQUEST message to the MSC. This counter is calculated at A4, as shown

1278072523 CELL.CALL.DROPS.AFT CM337:Call Drops after

ER.CONN Answer
Description
In the assignment procedure, a call is set up when the BSC receives the CONNECT and the
CONNECT ACKNOWLEDGE messages from the CC layer. In the incoming-BSC handover
procedure, a call is set up when the target cell sends a Handover Complete message to the MSC.
In the internal BSC handover process, a call is set up when a HANDOVER PERFORMED
message is sent to the MSC after the MS is handed over to the target cell. The BSC measures
this counter when call drop after the assignment procedure or the handover procedure.

BSC6900 GSM
Measurement point
l When the MS is in normal conversation on the radio channel, the BSC detects a CONNECT
or CONNECT ACKNOWLEDGE message. If an abnormal case for a radio link layer
connection occurs, the BTS sends an ERROR INDICATION message to the BSC. This
counter is measured when the BSC receives the ERROR INDICATION message. For
details, refer to GSM Rec. 08.58.
l When the MS is in normal conversation on the radio channel, the BSC detects a CONNECT
or CONNECT ACKNOWLEDGE message. If a broken radio link connection or hardware
fault occurs, the BTS sends a CONNECTION FAILURE INDICATION message to the
BSC. This counter is measured when the BSC receives the CONNECTION FAILURE
INDICATION message. For details, refer to GSM Rec. 08.58.
l This counter is measured if the timer expires before the BSC receives the CLEAR
HANDOVER message from the MSC during the outgoing BSC handover procedure.
l In the intra-BSC handover procedure, if the timer expires before the target cell receives the
HANDOVER COMPLETE message, the target cell sends an Inter Clear message to the
originating cell to inform it of the handover failure. This counter is measured in the
originating cell when the Inter Clear message is received.
l In the intra-BSC handover procedure, if the timer expires before the target cell receives the
HANDOVER COMPLETE message, the target cell sends an Inter Clear message to the
originating cell to inform it of the handover failure. This counter is measured in the
originating cell when the Inter Clear message is received.
l During the intra-BSC handover procedure, if the MS returns the original channel because
of a handover failure, the originating cell releases the terrestrial connection and restores
the network. This counter is measured if a call drop occurs due to a timeout or failure occurs
in the network restoration.
l If the BSC and the MSC supports preemption, the radio resource used by an MS with lower
priority may be preempted by an MS with higher priority, leading to the call drop of the
MS with lower priority.
l This counter is measured when a broken RSL is detected on the traffic channel on the TRX
used.
This counter is calculated at A1, A2, A3, and A4, as shown in Figure 1, Figure 2, Figure 3, and
Figure 4.

Description
This measurement provides the number of successful connections in the CS service. In the
immediate assignment procedure, after establishing the MM connection, the calling MS sends
a SETUP message to the BTS to request a call setup if a CC connection is required. Then the
MSC returns a CALL PROCESSING message and pages the called MS. After establishing the
MM connection with the called MS, the MSC sends a SETUP message to the called MS to
establish the CC connection. If the called MS permits the call setup, the called MS responds
with a CALL CONFIRMED message. After seizing a TCH, the called MS sends an ALERTING
message to the MSC. Then, the MSC sends the ALERTING message to the calling MS. After
the called MS answers, it sends a CONNECT message to the calling MS. The calling MS
responds with a CONNECT ACKNOWLEDGE message. Then the call is successfully
established and enters the conversation state.
This counter provides the number of CONNECT ACKNOWLEDGE messages received.
Measurement point
This counter is measured when the BSC detects a CONNECT ACKNOWLEDGE message.

1278072594 CELL.RATE.TCH.CALL.D ZTR304:Call Drop Rate on

ROP.INCLUDE.HO TCH per cell(including
Handover)
Description
This measurement provides the rate of TCH call drops (including handover) to successful TCH
seizures (including handover).
Note:
The TCH call drop rate (including handover) focuses on the channel, whereas the TCH call drop
rate (excluding handover) focuses on the end-user perception.
The TCH call drop rate (including handover) is the call drop probability measured based on the
channel resource occupancy. During a call, the number of channel occupancies is equal to the
number of handovers happened. If call drop occurs after only one handover, then the channel
occupancy of other handovers during the call is regarded as successful.

BSC6900 GSM
The TCH call drop rate (excluding handover) is the call drop probability measured for one call.
The TCH occupancy of a call is regarded as unsuccessful as long as call drop occurs, without
considering how many handovers happen during the call.
Measurement point
Formula
Call Drop Rate on TCH per cell(including Handover) = [Call Drops on Traffic Channel] *
{100}/([Successful TCH Seizures (Signaling Channel)] + [Successful TCH Seizures
(Traffic Channel)] + [Successful TCH Seizures in TCH handovers (Traffic Channel)])
The preceding formula does not take the impact of inter-RAT handover on call drops into
account. When inter-RAT handovers occur, you are advised to use the following customized
formula:
Call drop rate on TCH per cell (Including Handover) = X * 100/Y
Where,
X = [Call Drops on Traffic Channel];
Y = {([Successful TCH Seizures (Signaling Channel)] + [Successful TCH Seizures (Traffic

Channel)] + [Successful TCH Seizures in TCH handovers (Traffic Channel)])};
Therefore, it is recommended that the following formula be used when inter-RAT handovers
are detected:
Call drop rate on TCH per cell (Including Handover) = (X + Number of times the outgoing inter-
RAT inter-cell handover timer expires) * {100}/(Y + Number of successful incoming inter-RAT
inter-cell handovers))
Notes:
Number of times the outgoing inter-RAT inter-cell handover timer expires = [H352C: Failed
Outgoing Inter-RAT Inter-Cell Handovers (T8 Expired)];
Number of successful incoming inter-RAT inter-cell handovers = {[H3609: Incoming Inter-

RAT Inter-Cell Handover Requests (TCH)] - ([H3627: Failed Incoming Inter-RAT Inter-Cell
Handovers (TCHF)] + [H3628: Failed Incoming Inter-RAT Inter-Cell Handovers (TCHH)])};

This measurement provides the rate of TCH call drops (excluding handover) to successful TCH
seizures (excluding handover).
Measurement point
Formula
Call Drop Rate on TCH per cell(Excluding Handover) = [Call Drops on Traffic Channel]*
{100}/([Successful TCH Seizures (Traffic Channel)]+[Number of Incoming Internal Inter-

Internal Inter-Cell Handovers(TCH)]+[Number of Outgoing External Inter-Cell
Handover Requests(TCH)]-[Number of Failed Outgoing External Inter-Cell Handovers
(TCH)]))
When the number of successful outgoing inter-RAT handovers reaches the upper limit, the value
of this counter may be negative or even greater than 100% if the following formula is used:
Call drop rate on TCH per cell (excluding handover) = X * 100/Y
Where,
X = [Call Drops on Traffic Channel];
Y = {([Successful TCH Seizures (Traffic Channel)]+[Number of Incoming Internal Inter-
Cell Handover Requests (TCH)]-[Number of Unsuccessful Incoming Internal Inter-Cell
Handovers(TCH)]+[Number of Incoming External Inter-Cell Handover Requests(TCH)]-
[Number of Unsuccessful Incoming External Inter-Cell Handovers(TCH)]-([Number of
Outgoing Internal Inter-Cell Handover Requests(TCH)]-[Number of Unsuccessful
Outgoing Internal Inter-Cell Handovers(TCH)]+[Outgoing External Inter-Cell Handover
Requests(TCH)]-[Failed Outgoing External Inter-Cell Handovers(TCH)]))};
Therefore, it is recommended that the following formula be used when inter-RAT handovers
are detected:
Call drop rate on TCH per cell (excluding handover) = (X + Number of times the outgoing inter-
RAT inter-cell handover timer expires) * {100}/(Y + Number of successful incoming inter-RAT
inter-cell handovers - Number of successful outgoing inter-RAT inter-cell handovers))

due to Preemption
Description
This counter provides the number of calls from common MSs released due to resource
preemption by high-priority MSs in a particular cell during one measurement period. The counter
indicates common MSs released due to resource preemption by high-priority MSs when
resources are insufficient.
The GSM system provides enhanced Multi-Level Precedence and Pre-emption service (eMLPP),
a supplementary service. When resources are insufficient, the use of eMLPP ensures the priority
of high-priority MSs, but in certain scenarios (for example: emergency call preemption) the call
drop rate of common calls increases.
Measurement point
When a high-priority MS initiates a call and the TCH application is unsuccessful, preemption
of the TCH used by an MS of a lower priority is possible. The measurement is triggered when
the resources of a lower-priority MS are preempted and the MS initiates a call release.

1278070424 CELL.FCTRL.LEV.UP L3188H:Increases of Flow

Control Levels
Description
The cell flow control is performed through a double-timer mechanism. If a triggering event
occurs when timer T1 is running, the triggering event is ignored. If timer T1 is not running when
a triggering event occurs, the flow control level is increased by one level unless it reaches the
highest level. At the same time, timers T1 and T2 (T2 > T1) are started. If timer T2 expires, the
flow control level is decreased by one level. If the flow control level is not zero after the decrease,
then timer T2 is restarted.
This measurement provides the number of times that the triggering event occurs when T1 stops
and the flow control does not reach the highest level.
Measurement point
When a triggering event occurs, if the state of the cell flow control timer is Idle state or timer
T2 is running, and if the flow control level does not reach the highest level, then the flow control

counter Timing Advance during Concentric Cell Handover Initiation (Overlay to Underlay) is
incremented by the TA value in the MR. In a granularity period, the value of Mean Timing
Advance during Concentric Cell Handover Initiation (Overlay to Underlay) is the result of
dividing the accumulative Timing Advance during Concentric Cell Handover Initiation (Overlay
to Underlay) by Internal Intra-Cell Handover Requests (Overlay to Underlay).

1.5.13 Immediate Assignment Measurement per Cell

(CALL.ImmAss.CELL)
Overview
When an MS requires network services for reasons such as the Mobile Originated Call (MOC),
Mobile Terminated Call (MTC), emergency call, call re-establishment, location updating, packet
call, and Location Measurement Unit (LMU)+Reserved, it sends the BTS a CHAN REQ message
on the RACH. After receiving this message, the BTS reports a CHAN RQD message to the BSC
for a signaling channel.
After receiving the CHAN RQD message, the BSC assigns a signaling channel to the MS and
activates the signaling channel. If the BSC receives a CHAN ACTIV ACK message indicating
that the channel is ready from the BTS, the BSC sends an IMM ASS CMD message to the MS
to instruct the MS to access the specified signaling channel. This signaling channel can be an
SDCCH or TCH.
After receiving a FIRST SABM frame from the MS, the BTS sends an EST IND message to the
BSC.
After receiving the EST IND message that carries an MM message (CM SERV REQ message,
LOC UPD REQ message, IMSI DTCH message, PAG RSP message, CM RE-EST REQ
message, SS ACTIVATION message, and LCS message), the BSC requests the MSC to establish
the A interface connection and transparently transmits the MM message to the MSC.
Figure 1 is the flowchart that shows the measurement points of the counters related to immediate
assignment; Figure 2 is the block diagram that shows the measurement points of the counters
related to immediate assignment.

After receiving this message, the BTS sends a CHAN RQD message to the BSC for a dedicated
channel. These counters are used to measure the numbers of CHAN RQD messages received by
the BSC due to various access reasons.
The access reasons are various, including MOC, MTC, Emergency Call, Call Re-Establishment,
Location Updating, Packet Call, LMU + Reserved, and the other access reasons undefined in
the protocol.

Description
In the immediate assignment procedure, the BSC attempts to assign a channel after receiving a
CHAN RQD message from the BTS. After successfully assigning a channel, the BSC sends a
CHAN ACTIV message to the BTS. If the BSC receives a CHAN ACTIV ACK message
indicating that the channel is ready from the BTS, the BSC sends an IMM ASS CMD message
to the MS to instruct the MS to access the specified channel.
After receiving a CHAN RQD message from the BTS, the BSC sends an IMM ASS REJ message
to the MS if there is no channel available, the channel activation fails, or the channel activation
times out. The immediate assignment fails.
These counters provide the number of IMM ASS CMD messages sent by the BSC to the MS
based on the channel type carried in the IMM ASS CMD message when the access reason of
the MS in the measured cell is related to circuit services (MOC, MTC, Call Re-Establishment,
Emergency Call, or Location Updating).
Measurement point
The counter A3010, A3017, or A3018 is incremented by one based on the channel type carried
in the IMM ASS CMD message each time the BSC sends an IMM ASS CMD message to an

The BTS returns a UA frame to the MS and sends an EST IND message to the BSC to notify
the BSC that a link is normally established on the air interface.
These counters provide the number of EST IND messages received by the BSC from the BTS
corresponding to a certain access reason indicated in the EST IND message and a specific type
of the channel specified by the BSC in the IMM ASS CMD message.
Measurement point
As shown in Figure 1, each time the BSC receives an EST IND message from the BTS (see
measurement point C), a counter is incremented by one based on the L3 message type carried
in the EST IND message and the channel type specified by the BSC in the IMM ASS CMD
message.

Description
In the immediate assignment procedure, the MS accesses the new channel and reports an SABM
frame that carries an MM layer message to the BTS to notify the BTS that the radio link layer
has entered the status of multi-frame link establishment. The BTS returns a UA frame to the MS
and sends an EST IND message that carries the MM layer message to the BSC to notify the BSC
that a link is normally established on the air interface. After receiving the EST IND message,
the BSC takes the MM layer message out of the EST IND message and sends the MM layer
message to the MSC. If the NSS does not support or cannot respond to the service request due
to various reasons, the MSC sends a CM SERV REJ message to the MS. The BSC transparently
transmits the CM SERV REJ message to the MS.
These counters measure the error causes in the CM SERV REJ messages sent by the MSC to
the MS. The error causes include congestion, network failure, illegal MS, and others.
Measurement point
As shown in Figure 1, each time the BSC receives a CM SERV REJ message sent by the MSC
to an MS in the measured cell (see measurement point A), the corresponding counter is
incremented by one based on the reject cause.

is a local user and whether the call is initiated between local users. If the call is made between
local users, the BTS sends the BSC a Local Channel Request message, requesting the BSC to
assign a TCH. Subsequently, the signaling of the call does not pass the BSC.

1.5.14 Incoming External Inter-Cell Handover Measurement per

Cell(CALL.InterBscIntoCellHo.CELL)
Overview
The external inter-cell handover per cell indicates that after receiving the measurement report
from the MS, the BSC uses the handover algorithm to decide whether a handover is required or
not according to the factors such as the cell load, the signal interference, and the information in
the measurement report, including the signal quality, the signal strength, and the receive level.
If the originating (serving cell) and the target cell are under the control of different BSCs, an
external inter-cell handover is initiated.
The incoming external inter-cell handover per cell is part of the external inter-cell handover
procedure, which takes the target cell as the measurement object. The following describes the
incoming external inter-cell handover procedure. (Note: The BSC in which the originating cell
is located is referred to as BSC1, and the BSC in which the target cell is located is referred to
as BSC2 hereinafter.)
BSC1 initiates the incoming external inter-cell handover after receiving the measurement report
sent by the MS. The handover algorithm of BSC1 analyzes the received measurement report,
load of the current cell, and its neighbor cell, and then notifies BSC1 of the incoming external
After the handover algorithm sends out the HDM, BSC1 sends an HO RQD message to notify
the MSC of the target cell the hangover is aimed at. The MSC searches for the corresponding
BSC2 according to the information about the target cell in the data configuration, and then sends
an HO REQ message to BSC2. After receiving the HO REQ message from the MSC, BSC2
applies to the target cell under its control for the required traffic channel.
After the channel is successfully allocated, BSC2 sends a CHAN ACTIV message to the target
cell, and requests resources for speech services after receiving the CHAN ACTIV ACK message
from the target cell. When the resources for speech services are allocated, the target cell is ready
for handover. Then BSC2 sends an HO REQ ACK message to the MSC to notify the MSC that
the allocated channel in the target cell is ready for MS to access.
After receiving the message, the MSC sends an HO CMD message to BSC1. BSC1 sends an
HO CMD message of the Um interface to instruct the MS to access the target cell in BSC2. The
MS sends an HO ACC message to the target cell to attempt to access the target cell. BTS2 sends
an HO DETECT message to BSC2 and at the same time sends a PHY INFO message to the MS.
The MS sends the FIRST SABM frame to access the network. After receiving the FIRST SABM
frame, BTS2 sends an EST IND message to BSC2 and sends the UA frame to the MS. After the
MS accesses the target cell, it sends an HO CMP message to BSC2, and BSC2 also sends an

BSC6900 GSM
HO CMP message to the MSC, indicating that the handover is successful. The MSC sends a
CLEAR CMD message to BSC1 to instruct BSC1 to release terrestrial resources in the
originating cell. After the resources are released, BSC1 sends a CLR CMP message to the MSC.
The measurement of the incoming external inter-cell handover provides the number of incoming
external inter-cell handovers based on the target cell in BSC2.

external inter-cell handover; Figure 2 is the block diagram that shows the measurement points

Description
BSC determines whether to initiate the handover from the originating cell to the target cell
through the handover algorithm. If the originating cell and the target cell are controlled by
different BSCs, the external inter-cell handover is initiated. The specific counter provides the
number of incoming external inter-cell handover requests based on the target cell under control
of the target BSC. Together with the Incoming External Inter-Cell Handover Responses and the
Failed Incoming External Inter-Cell Handovers, this counter determines the incoming external
inter-cell handover performance.
The following counters provide the numbers of incoming external inter-cell handover requests
initiated by other BSCs based on the handover algorithm. The MS may seize a channel (SDCCH/
TCH) before the handover. They are measured when the BSC receives an HO REQ message
from the MSC.

Description
After receiving an HO REQ message from the MSC, the BSC requests a channel from the target
cell and activates the channel. The BSC requests for speech service resources. If the request is
successful, the BSC returns an HO REQ ACK message to the MSC. This counter provides the
number of HO REQ ACK messages that the BSC respond to the MSC after receiving HO REQ
messages from the MSC, based on the type of the target channel (SDCCH/TCHF/TCHH) when
the handover occurs between the frequency bands as listed in Table 1. This measurement is
performed when the BSC sends an HO REQ ACK message to the MSC.
Measurement point
As shown in Figure 1, the counter is measured at point B when the target BSC (BSC2) sends an
HO REQ ACK message to the MSC. The measurement object is the target cell.

Description
If the incoming external inter-cell handover fails during the handover procedure, the specific
counter is measured in the target cell under control of the target BSC, based on the type of the
target channel and the cause of the failure. Together with Incoming External Inter-Cell Handover
Requests and Incoming External Inter-Cell Handover Responses, this counter indicates the
performance of the incoming external inter-cell handover.
The following counters provide the numbers of failed incoming internal inter-cell handovers
when the handover occurs between the frequency bands. The target channel for handover can
be SDCCH or TCH. They are measured when the incoming internal inter-cell handover is
terminated.
l H3420W:CELL.INTERBSC.INCELL.HO.FAIL.SD.900.900
l H3420X:CELL.INTERBSC.INCELL.HO.FAIL.SD.1800.1800
l H3420Y:CELL.INTERBSC.INCELL.HO.FAIL.SD.900.1800

l H3429W:CELL.INTERBSC.INCELL.HO.FAIL.TCH.900.900
l H3429X:CELL.INTERBSC.INCELL.HO.FAIL.TCH.1800.1800
l H3429Y:CELL.INTERBSC.INCELL.HO.FAIL.TCH.900.1800
l H3429Z:CELL.INTERBSC.INCELL.HO.FAIL.TCH.1800.900
The following counters provide the numbers of failed incoming external inter-cell handovers
due to several common causes. The specific counter is measured when the incoming external
inter-cell handover is terminated.
1) The following counter provides the number of failed incoming external inter-cell handovers
because the BSC fails to decode an HO REQ message from the MSC:
l H342I:CELL.INTERBSC.INCELL.HO.FAIL.CONTENTS.INVALID
2) The following counters provide the numbers of failed incoming external inter-cell handover
based on the causes related to resource allocations.
The following counters provide the number of failed incoming external inter-cell handovers
because the SDCCH or TCH is unavailable in the target cell. It is measured when the channel
allocation fails.

BSC6900 GSM
l H3420A:CELL.INTERBSC.INCELL.HO.FAIL.CONG.SD
l H3429A:CELL.INTERBSC.INCELL.HO.FAIL.CONG.TCH
The following counter provides the number of failed incoming external inter-cell handovers
because no Abis circuit resource is available in the target cell when the Abis dynamic allocation
is enabled.
l H342L:CELL.INTERBSC.INCELL.HO.FAIL.NO.IDLE.ABIS
because no proper speech version is available based on the speech versions carried in the HO
REQ message from the MSC, the speech versions supported by the target cell, and the speech
versions permitted by the A interface phase tag. It is measured when no speech version is
available.
l H342J:CELL.INTERBSC.INCELL.HO.FAIL.NO.SPEECH.VER
because the BSC fails to obtain the circuit resource when establishing the terrestrial connection.
l H342B:CELL.INTERBSC.INCELL.HO.FAIL.APPLY.TRSL.FAIL
because the CIC on the A interface specified in the HO REQ message is unavailable, after the
BSC receives the HO REQ from the MSC.
l H342E:CELL.INTERBSC.INCELL.HO.FAIL.NO.CIC
because the CIC on the A interface specified in the HO REQ message has already been allocated
to another MS, after the BSC receives the HO REQ from the MSC.
l H342F:CELL.INTERBSC.INCELL.HO.FAIL.CIC.AVAIL
3) The following counters provide the numbers of failed incoming external inter-cell handovers
because the MS fails to access the new channel on the Um interface.
During incoming external inter-cell handover procedure, after successfully allocating and
activating the channel in the target cell, the BSC sends an HO REQ ACK message to the MSC
and starts the timer to wait for the HO CMP message. If no HO COMP message is received
before the timer expires, the BSC releases the call. The specific counter provides the number of
failed incoming external inter-cell handovers, based on the channel type and service type of the
target channel (SDCCH, TCH as signaling channel, or TCH as traffic channel) in this scenario.
l H3420C:CELL.INTERBSC.INCELL.HO.FAIL.EXP.SD
l H3429Cb:CELL.INTERBSC.INCELL.HO.FAIL.EXP.TCH.SIG
l H3429Ca:CELL.INTERBSC.INCELL.HO.FAIL.EXP.TCH.TRAF
(4) The following counter provides the number of failed incoming external inter-cell handovers
because the BSC releases the call after receiving the CLEAR CMD message from the MSC.
If the incoming external inter-cell handover fails because the BSC releases the call after receiving
the CLEAR CMD message from the MSC, the following counter is measured:
l H342H:CELL.INTERBSC.INCELL.HO.FAIL.MSC.CLR.CMD
If the incoming external inter-cell handover fails because the BSC releases the call after receiving
the CLEAR CMD message from the MSC, the following counter are measured based on the
cause values of the CLEAR CMD message:
l H342HA:CELL.INTERBSC.INCELL.HO.FAIL.MSC.CLR.CMD.UM.MSG.FAIL

BSC6900 GSM
l H342HB:CELL.INTERBSC.INCELL.HO.FAIL.MSC.CLR.CMD.UM.FAIL
l H342HC:CELL.INTERBSC.INCELL.HO.FAIL.MSC.CLR.CMD.OM
l H342HD:CELL.INTERBSC.INCELL.HO.FAIL.MSC.CLR.CMD.EQP.FAIL
l H342HE:CELL.INTERBSC.INCELL.HO.FAIL.MSC.CLR.CMD.PREEMPTION
l H342HF:CELL.INTERBSC.INCELL.HO.FAIL.MSC.CLR.CMD.INVAILD.MSG
l H342HG:CELL.INTERBSC.INCELL.HO.FAIL.MSC.CLR.CMD.PROTOCOL.ERR
l H342HH:CELL.INTERBSC.INCELL.HO.FAIL.MSC.CLR.CMD.OTHER.FAIL
The main causes for a failed incoming external inter-cell handover include:
1. Causes related to message decoding
l The BSC fails to decode the HO REQ message
2. Causes related to resource allocation
l No traffic channel is available
l No Abis resource is available
l No speech version is available
l The BSC fails to obtain the terrestrial resources
l No CIC is available
l The CIC is already allocated
3. Causes related to access on the Um interface
l MCS releases the call because of failed access on the radio interface
l The timer for the BSC to wait for an HO CMP message expires
4. Other causes
l The BSC releases the call after receiving the CLR CMD from the MSC
The number of failed incoming external inter-cell handovers due to rare causes, such as
equipment failures and internal checks, is not measured. You can calculate the number of such
failed handovers by subtracting the number of failed handovers due to the preceding common
causes from the value of Failed Incoming External Inter-Cell Handovers.

Description
According to the MR sent from the MS, the BSC determines whether a handover is required
based on the handover algorithm. If the handover (internal inter-cell handover or external inter-
cell handover) is caused by TA (During conversation, a handover is triggered in the target cell

BSC6900 GSM
because the signal strength and quality in the serving cell decreases when the MS leaves or
accesses the serving cell.) This counter indicates the frequency of the handover caused by the
TA in the target cell.
Measurement point
1. In the internal inter-cell handover procedure, the direct retry procedure, or the internal inter-
cell handover (BSC loop) procedure, the originating cell sends an Intercell Handover Request
message to the target cell after handover algorithm decision at C1, as shown in the following
figure. This counter is incremented by one if the target cell (serving cell) detects that the handover
cause is TA.
Figure 1-286
2. In the external inter-BSC handover procedure, after the target BSC receives a HO REQ
message from the MSC, the BSC checks whether the incoming handover meets the conditions.
If the handover is required, the BSC requests a channel, generates a HO CMD message and saves
it in the buffer. Then, the BSC sends a CHAN ACTIV message to the BTS. After receiving a
CHAN ACTIV ACK message from the BTS, the BSC sends a HO REQ ACKE message
encapsulated with the HO CMD message to the MSC and checks the handover cause. If the
handover cause is TA, this counter is incremented by one.

Description
This counter provides the number of incoming external inter-cell handover responses on the
TCHs in a measurement period in the target cell.
If the number of incoming external inter-cell handover responses is smaller than the number of
incoming external inter-cell handover requests, it indicates that the handover fails before the
handover response is received. The possible cause for the handover failure can be: no channel
is available in the target cell, no speech version is available, no Abis interface resource is
available or the BSC fails to activate the allocated channel, or no circuit resource is available.
Measurement point
The measurement is triggered at the target cell when the BSC sends an HO REQ ACK message
to the MS to instruct the MS to access the TCHs. See measurement points of the counters in the
formula.

1.5.15 Outgoing External Inter-Cell Handover Measurement per

Cell(CALL.InterBscOutCellHo.CELL)
Overview
Outgoing External Inter-Cell Handover Measurement per Cell can be classified into Outgoing
External Inter-Cell Handover (Excluding Directed Retry) and Outgoing External Inter-Cell
Handover (Directed Retry).
The following is the block diagram that shows the measurement points of the counters related
to outgoing external inter-cell handover.

success(excluding directed retry)
Outgoing external inter-cell handover (excluding directed retry)

As shown in Figure 2, after the BSC receives measurement reports from the MS, it uses the
handover algorithm to decide whether a handover is required or not. If a handover is required
and the source cell (the current cell where the MS is located) and the target cell (the cell where
the MS is located after the handover) are controlled by two BSCs, an external inter-cell handover
is initiated.
The measurement of outgoing external inter-cell handover (excluding directed retry) is
performed in the source cell.

BSC6900 GSM
The procedure of the outgoing external inter-cell handover (excluding directed retry) is as
follows: BSC1 initiates an external inter-cell handover based on the handover algorithm.
BSC1 sends an HO RQD message to the MSC.Based on the HO RQD message and the relation
between the cell and the BSC, the MSC finds BSC2 and sends an HO REQ message to BSC2.
BSC2 requests for a traffic channel from the target cell. After the request succeeds, BSC2 sends
a CHAN ACTIV message to the target cell. After receiving a CHAN ACTIV ACK message
from the target cell, BSC2 requests for speech service resources. After the request succeeds,
BSC2 sends the MSC an HO REQ ACK message to notify the MSC that the target cell is ready
for the MS access.
The MSC sends an HO CMD message to BSC1 and BSC1 forwards this message to the MS.
This message is used to request the MS to access the target cell.
The MS sends the target cell an HO ACC message to attempt to access the target cell. BTS2
sends an HO DETECT message to BSC2 and a PHY INFO message to the MS.
The MS sends a FIRST SABM frame to BTS2. After receiving this frame, BTS2 sends an EST
IND message to BSC2 and returns a UA frame to the MS.
After the MS accesses the target cell, it sends an HO CMP message to BSC2 and BSC2 forwards
this message to the MSC.
The MSC sends a CLR CMD message to BSC1 and the BSC1 releases the terrestrial resources
in the source cell.BSC1 sends a CLR CMP message to the MSC.

BSC6900 GSM
As shown in Figure 3, the MS sends a CHAN RQD message to BTS1 and BTS1 forwards it to
BSC1.
BSC1 requests for a signaling channel from the source cell. If the request succeeds, BSC1 sends
a CHAN ACTIV message to the source cell. After receiving a CHAN ACTIV ACK message
from the source cell, BSC1 sends an IMM ASS CMD to the MS through the source cell.
The MS sends a FIRST SABM frame to BTS1 and BTS1 returns a UA frame. After receiving
the FIRST SABM frame, BTS1 sends an EST IND message to BSC1.
BSC1 extracts the CM SERV REQ message carried in the EST IND message, encapsulates it
into a connection request (CR) message, and sends the CR message to the MSC.
The MSC returns a Connection Confirm (CC) message. The MM connection between the MS
and the MSC is established.
After the transmission of the CM SERV ACCEPT, SETUP, and CALL PROCEEDING
messages, the MSC sends an ASSIGN REQ message to BSC1.
BSC1 selects a kind of assignment procedure (normal assignment procedure, mode modify
procedure, directed retry procedure) based on the load of the source cell.
If the subsequent services are unavailable or the subsequent services affect the existing services
because the cell load is too high, BSC1 selects the directed retry procedure. If the source cell
and the target cell are controlled by two BSCs, the directed retry is performed through an external
inter-cell handover procedure. If the measurement is performed in the source cell, the outgoing
external inter-cell handover procedure is initiated.
BSC1 sends an HO RQD message to the MSC to initiate an external inter-cell handover.
Based on the HO RQD message and the relation between the cell and the BSC, the MSC finds
BSC2 and sends an HO REQ message to BSC2.
BSC2 requests for a channel from the target cell. After the request succeeds, BSC2 sends a
CHAN ACTIV message to the target cell. After receiving a CHAN ACTIV ACK message from
the target cell, BSC2 requests for speech service resources. After the request succeeds, BSC2
sends the MSC an HO REQ ACK message to notify the MSC that the target cell is ready for the
MS access.
The MSC sends an HO CMD message to BSC1 and BSC1 forwards this message to the MS.
This message is used to request the MS to access the target cell.
The MS sends the target cell an HO ACC message to attempt to access the target cell. BTS2
sends an HO DETECT message to BSC2 and a PHY INFO message to the MS.
BSC2 sends an HO DETECT message to the MSC. The MS sends a FIRST SABM frame to
BTS2. After receiving this frame, BTS2 returns a UA frame to the MS and sends an EST IND
message to BSC2.
The MS sends an HO CMP message to BSC2 and BSC2 forwards this message to the MSC.
The MSC sends a CLR CMD message to BSC1 and the BSC1 releases the terrestrial resources
in the source cell.
BSC1 sends a CLR CMP message to the MSC.

Description
The BSC decides whether to initiate a handover based on the MR and the handover algorithm.
If the originating cell and the target cell are controlled by the different BSC, an internal inter-
cell handover is initiated. The specific counter provides the number of outgoing external inter-
cell handover requests in the originating cell initiated by the BSC based on the handover
algorithm. Together with the Outgoing External Inter-Cell Handover Commands and the Failed
Outgoing External Inter-Cell Handovers, this counter determines the outgoing external inter-
cell handover performance.
The following counters provide the numbers of outgoing external inter-cell handover requests
initiated by the BSC based on the handover algorithm (excluding direct retry) when the handover
occurs. The target channel for handover can be SDCCH, TCHF, or TCHH. They are measured
when the outgoing external inter-cell handover is initiated.

The following counters provide the numbers of outgoing internal inter-cell handover requests
during directed retry when the originating cell and the target cell are under control of different
BSCs and the handover occurs between the frequency bands. They are measured when the
outgoing internal inter-cell handover is initiated during directed retry.

initiated by the BSC using BQ handover algorithm based on the UL or DL receive quality in the
MR. They are measured when the outgoing external inter-cell handover is initiated.
l H330A:CELL.INTERBSC.OUTCELL.HO.REQ.UL.QLTY
l H330B:CELL.INTERBSC.OUTCELL.HO.REQ.DL.QLTY
The receive quality is evaluated with bit error rate (BER), and the radio link quality is evaluated
with the quality level in the MR. A high BER may be attributed to an excessively low signal
level or channel interference.
BQ handover algorithm is for emergency handover based on the uplink or downlink receive
quality over the Um interface. If uplink quality rank is greater than or equal to the UL Qual.
Threshold, the BQ handover is initiated because of bad uplink quality. If downlink quality rank
is greater than or equal to the DL Qual. Threshold, the BQ handover is initiated because of bad
downlink quality.
initiated by the BSC using BQ handover algorithm based on the UL or DL receive level in the
MR. They are measured when the outgoing external inter-cell handover is initiated.
l H330C:CELL.INTERBSC.OUTCELL.HO.REQ.UL.RXL
l H330D:CELL.INTERBSC.OUTCELL.HO.REQ.DL.RXL
Edge handover algorithm is used to determine whether to initiate a handover based on the uplink
or downlink receive level over the Um interface. If the uplink receive level is smaller than the
Edge HO UL RX_LEV Threshold, the edge handover is initiated because of the low uplink level.
If the downlink receive level is smaller than the Edge HO DL RX_LEV Threshold, the edge
handover is initiated because of the low downlink level.
The following counter provides the number of outgoing external inter-cell handover requests
initiated by the BSC using TA handover algorithm based on the TA value in the MR. It is
measured when the outgoing external inter-cell handover is initiated.
l H330E:CELL.INTERBSC.OUTCELL.HO.REQ.TA

BSC6900 GSM
TA for a common cell: 0-63; TA for an underlaid subcell in a dual-timeslot extended cell: 0-219.
If there are 63 bits and each bit step is 553.5 m, the distance is 35 km.
TA handover algorithm is for emergency handover based on the TA value reported by the BTS.
If the TA value is greater than the TA Threshold, a TA handover is initiated.
initiated by the BSC based on the MRs using algorithms such as power budget handover (PBGT),
inter-layer handover (better cell), and better 3G cell handover. It is measured when the outgoing
external inter-cell handover is initiated.
l H330F:CELL.INTERBSC.OUTCELL.HO.REQ.BETTER.CELL
PBGT handover algorithm is used to decide whether to initiate a handover to a valid cell with a
lower path loss.
Inter-layer (better cell) handover algorithm is used to decide whether to initiate a handover to a
cell which is on a lower layer than the serving cell and whose downlink level is greater than the
Inter-layer HO Threshold.
Better 3G cell handover algorithm is used to determine whether to initiate a handover based on
the measurement object. If the measurement object is RSCP and the measured result is greater
than the RSCP Threshold for Better 3G Cell HO, or if the measurement object is Ec/No and the
measured result is greater than the Ec/NO Threshold for Better 3G Cell HO, then a handover to
a 3G better cell is initiated.
initiated by the BSC using load handover algorithm based on the load condition on the serving
cell. It is measured when the outgoing external inter-cell handover is initiated.
l H330G:CELL.INTERBSC.OUTCELL.HO.REQ.LOAD
Load handover algorithm is used to decide whether to initiate a handover based on the load
conditions on the serving cell and the neighboring cell. If the system signaling flow is smaller
than the System Flux Threshold for Load HO, the load on the serving cell is greater than the
Load HO Threshold and the load on the target cell is smaller than the Load Req.on Candidate
Cell, a load handover is initiated.
initiated by the BSC using the rapid lever drop algorithm based on the MRs. It is measured when
the outgoing external inter-cell handover is initiated.
l H330H:CELL.INTERBSC.OUTCELL.HO.REQ.RAPID.LEV.DROP
Rapid lever drop algorithm is used to decide whether to initiate a handover based on the downlink
receive level in the measurement report. When the drop slope of the downlink receive level
meets the specified threshold, a rapid lever drop handover is initiated.
The following counter provides the numbers of outgoing external inter-cell handover requests
initiated by the BSC based on the HANDOVER CANDIDATE ENQUIRE message received
from the MSC. It is measured when the outgoing external inter-cell handover is initiated.
l H330I:CELL.INTERBSC.OUTCELL.HO.REQ.MSC.INTERVENTION
After receiving the HANDOVER CANDIDATE ENQUIRE message from the MSC, the BSC
instructs proper MSs in the source cell to perform forced handover, based on the originating cell
ID and the number of MSs to perform handovers contained in that message. The MSs that are
forced to perform handover are as many as the specified number of MSs contained in the
message.

initiated manually by the maintenance personnel from the maintenance terminal. It is measured
when the BSC initiates the outgoing external inter-cell handover based on the handover
algorithm after receiving the maintenance command requesting for outgoing external inter-cell
handover.
l H330J:CELL.INTERBSC.OUTCELL.HO.REQ.OM.INTERVENTION
If a BSC is configured with multiple signaling points, the procedure of handover between cells
at different signaling points is identical with that of the external inter-cell handover.
The following counter provides the number of Outgoing External Inter-Cell Handover Requests
(Different Signaling Points). It is measured when the outgoing external inter-cell handover is
initiated when the originating cell and target cell are at different signaling points of the same
BSC.
l H3303:CELL.INTERBSC.OUTCELL.HO.REQ.DIFFERENT.SIG.POINT

Description
After sending the HO RQD message to the MSC, the BSC receives the HO RQD ACK message
containing the HO CMD message from the MSC. Then, the BSC sends the HO CMD message
to the MS. The specific counter provides the number of outgoing external inter-cell handover
commands sent by the BSC in the originating cell. With the Outgoing External Inter-Cell
Handover Requests and the Failed Outgoing External Inter-Cell Handovers, this counter
determines the outgoing external inter-cell handover performance.
The following counters provide the number of outgoing external inter-cell handover requests
during the handovers initiated based on the handover algorithm (excluding directed retry) when
the handover occurs between the frequency. The target channel for handover can be SDCCH,
TCHF, or TCHH. They are measured when the BSC sends the HO CMD message to the MS.

l H331A:CELL.INTERBSC.OUTCELL.HO.CMD.UL.QLTY
l H331B:CELL.INTERBSC.OUTCELL.HO.CMD.DL.QLTY
The receive quality is evaluated with the bit error rate (BER), and the radio link quality is
evaluated with the quality level in the MR. A high BER may be caused by an excessively low
signal level or channel interference.
The band quality (BQ) handover algorithm is for emergency handover based on the uplink or
downlink receive quality over the Um interface. If the uplink quality rank is greater than or equal
to the UL Qual. Threshold, the BQ handover is initiated because of bad uplink quality. If
downlink quality rank is greater than or equal to the DL Qual. Threshold, the BQ handover is
initiated because of bad downlink quality.

l H331C:CELL.INTERBSC.OUTCELL.HO.CMD.UL.RXL
l H331D:CELL.INTERBSC.OUTCELL.HO.CMD.DL.RXL
The edge handover algorithm is used to determine whether to initiate a handover based on the
uplink or downlink receive level over the Um interface. If the uplink receive level is smaller
than the Edge HO UL RX_LEV Threshold, the edge handover is initiated because of the low

uplink level. If the downlink receive level is smaller than the Edge HO DL RX_LEV Threshold,
the edge handover is initiated because of the low downlink level.
initiated by the BSC using the TA handover algorithm based on the TA value in the measurement
report. They are measured when the BSC sends the HO CMD message to the MS.
l H331E:CELL.INTERBSC.OUTCELL.HO.CMD.TA
The TA handover algorithm is for emergency handover based on the TA value reported by the
BTS. If the TA value is greater than the TA Threshold, a TA handover is initiated.
The following counter provides the number of outgoing external inter-cell handover commands
initiated by the BSC based on the measurement reports using algorithms such as power budget
handover (PBGT), inter-layer handover (better cell), and better 3G cell handover. It is measured
l H331F:CELL.INTERBSC.OUTCELL.HO.CMD.BETTER.CELL
The PBGT handover algorithm is used to determine whether to initiate a handover to a valid cell
with a lower path loss. The Inter-layer (better cell) handover algorithm is used to decide whether
to initiate a handover to a cell which is on a lower layer than the serving cell and whose downlink
level is greater than the Inter-layer HO Threshold.
The better 3G cell handover algorithm is used to determine whether to initiate a handover based
on the measurement object. If the measurement object is RSCP and the measured result is greater

The rapid lever drop algorithm is used to determine whether to initiate a handover based on the
downlink receive level in the measurement report. When the drop slope of the downlink receive
level meets the specified threshold, a rapid lever drop handover is initiated.

Description
During the outgoing external inter-cell handover procedure, if the handover fails because of
various causes before the BSC receives the CLEAR CMD message with the cause of Ho Success
from the MSC, the specific counter is measured based on the source channel types, handover
failure causes, handover causes. Together with Outgoing External Inter-Cell Handover Requests

BSC6900 GSM
and Outgoing External Inter-Cell Handover Commands, this counter indicates the performance
of outgoing external inter-cell handovers.
The following counters provide the numbers of failed outgoing external inter-cell handovers
during the handovers initiated by the BSC based on the handover algorithm (excluding directed
retry) when the handover occurs between the frequency bands. The target channel for handover
can be SDCCH, TCHF, or TCHH. They are measured when the outgoing external inter-cell
handover is terminated.

1.5.15.4 Outgoing External Inter-Cell Handover Requests
1278081556 CELL.INTERBSC.OUTCE CH330:Outgoing External

Requests
Description
Based on the MR sent by the MS, the BSC uses the handover algorithm to determine whether a
handover is required. If a handover is required, and if the originating cell (current cell) and the
target cell are managed by different BSCs, the BSC initiates an external inter-cell handover.
This counter provides the number of outgoing external inter-cell handover requests initiated by
the BSC. The measurement is performed based on the originating cell and involves handovers
on the SDCCH, TCHF and TCHH.
Measurement point
As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2, the counter is measured at A when the BSC determines that
an outgoing external inter-cell handover is required based on the measurement report.

Overview
When the MSC in the GSM system (hereinafter referred to as MSC1) receives a handover request
message from the MSC in other radio communication system such as UMTS or TD-SCDMA
(hereinafter referred to as MSC2), MSC1 finds the BSC for the target cell (hereinafter referred
to as BSC1) based on both the target cell information in the message and the cell-BSC relation
specified in the data configuration. Then, MSC1 sends an HO REQ message to BSC1.
After successfully allocating the channel resources in the target cell, BSC1 sends a CHAN
ACTIV message to the target cell (hereinafter referred to as BTS1), and requests relevant
resources for circuit services after receiving the CHAN ACTIV ACK message from BTS1. When
the resources for circuit services are assigned successfully, BSC1 sends an HO REQ ACK
message to MSC1.
When the MS receives the HO CMD from MSC2, it attempts to access BTS1 by sending an HO
ACC message. Then BTS1 sends an HO DETECT message to MSC1, and a PHY INFO message
to the MS.
The MS sends a FIRST SABM frame to access the network. BTS1 sends a EST IND message
to BSC1 and a UA frame to the MS for acknowledgement.
After the MS accesses the network, it sends an HO CMP message to MSC1. The inter-RAT
incoming cell handover is complete.

When a BSC receives an HO REQ message from the MSC for an MS in a neighbor cell from
another network (such as UMTS or TD-SCDMA), an inter-RAT inter-cell handover is initiated.
The number of incoming inter-RAT inter-cell handover requests is measured based on the type
of the target channel. Together with Incoming Inter-RAT Inter-Cell Handover Responses and
Failed Incoming Inter-RAT Inter-Cell Handovers, these counters indicate the performance of
the incoming inter-RAT inter-cell handover.
The channel involved in these counters can be the SDCCH, TCHF, or TCHH.
Measurement point
As shown in Figure 1, these counters are measured at point A if the BSC receives an HO REQ
from the MSC and determines an inter-RAT inter-cell handover.

Description
If the incoming inter-RAT inter-cell handover fails during the handover procedure, the specific
counter is measured in the target cell under control of the target BSC, based on the type of the
target channel and the cause of the failure. Together with Incoming Inter-RAT Inter-Cell
Handover Requests and Incoming Inter-RAT Inter-Cell Handover Responses, this counter
indicates the performance of the incoming inter-RAT inter-cell handover.
The following counters provide the numbers of failed incoming inter-RAT inter-cell handovers,
based on the specific type of the target channel: SDCCH, TCHF, or TCHH. They are measured
upon the termination of the incoming inter-RAT inter-cell handover.
l H3620:CELL.INTERRAN.INCELL.HO.FAIL.SD
l H3627:CELL.INTERRAN.INCELL.HO.FAIL.TCHF
l H3628:CELL.INTERRAN.INCELL.HO.FAIL.TCHH
The following counters provide the numbers of failed incoming inter-RAT inter-cell handovers
due to several common causes. The specific counter is measured when the incoming external
inter-cell handover is terminated.
1) The following counter provides the number of failed incoming inter-RAT inter-cell handovers
because the BSC fails to decode an HO REQ message with invalid contents from the MSC:
l H362J:CELL.INTERRAN.INCELL.HO.FAIL.INVALID.CONTENTS
2) The following counters provide the numbers of failed incoming inter-RAT inter-cell
handovers due to failures in allocating relevant resources.
The following counter provide respectively the number of failed incoming inter-RAT inter-cell
handovers because the SDCCH or TCH is unavailable in the target cell. The specific counter is
measured when the channel allocation fails.
l H3620A:CELL.INTERRAN.INCELL.HO.FAIL.CONG.SD
l H3629A:CELL.INTERRAN.INCELL.HO.FAIL.CONG.TCH
The following counter provides the number of failed incoming inter-RAT inter-cell handovers
because no proper speech version is available based on the speech versions carried in the HO
REQ message from the MSC, the speech versions supported by the target cell, and the speech
versions permitted by the A interface phase tag. It is measured when no speech version is
available.
l H362L:CELL.INTERRAN.INCELL.HO.FAIL.NO.SPEECH.VER
because the BSC fails to apply for the circuit resources.
l H362B:CELL.INTERRAN.INCELL.HO.FAIL.APPLY.TRSL.FAIL

BSC6900 GSM
because the specified CIC on the A interface is unavailable, after the BSC receives the HO REQ
from the MSC.
l H362E:CELL.INTERRAN.INCELL.HO.FAIL.NO.CIC
because the specified CIC on the A interface has already been allocated to another MS, after the
BSC receives the HO REQ from the MSC.
l H362F:CELL.INTERRAN.INCELL.HO.FAIL.CIC.ALLOC
3) The following counters respectively provides the number of failed incoming inter-RAT inter-
cell handovers, based on the channel type and service type of the target channel (SDCCH, TCH
as signaling channel, and TCH as traffic channel), because timer T3121 expires after the BSC
allocates and activates the channel in the target cell and sends an HO REQ ACK message to the
MSC.
l H3620C:CELL.INTERRAN.INCELL.HO.FAIL.EXP.SD
l H3629Cb:H3629Cb:CELL.INTERRAN.INCELL.HO.FAIL.EXP.TCH.SIG
l H3629Ca:H3629Ca:CELL.INTERRAN.INCELL.HO.FAIL.EXP.TCH.TRAF.CH
4) The following counter provides the number of failed incoming inter-RAT inter-cell handovers
because the BSC releases the call after receiving the CLEAR CMD message from the MSC.
l H362H:CELL.INTERRAN.INCELL.HO.FAIL.MSC.CLR.CMD
The main causes of failed incoming inter-RAT inter-cell handovers include:
1) Causes related to message decoding The BSC fails to decode the HO REQ message.
2) Causes related to resource allocation No traffic channel is available. No speech version is

available. The BSC fails to obtain the terrestrial resources. No CIC is available. The CIC is
already allocated.
3) Causes related to access on the Um interface The timer for the BSC to wait for an HO CMP
message expires.
4) Other causes The BSC releases the call after receiving the CLR CMD from the MSC. The
number of failed incoming inter-RAT inter-cell handovers due to rare causes, such as equipment
failures and internal checks, is not measured. You can calculate the number of such failed
handovers by subtracting the number of failed handovers due to the preceding common causes
from the value of Failed Incoming Inter-RAT Inter-Cell Handovers.
Measurement point
Figure 1 shows the measurement of counters related to the failed incoming inter-RAT inter-cell
handover.
As shown in Figure 1, the following counters are measured at point A when the incoming inter-
RAT inter-cell handover fails after the BSC receives an HO REQ message from the MSC,
respectively because the message has an invalid content, no suitable channel is available in the
target cell, or no proper speech version is available:
l H362J:CELL.INTERRAN.INCELL.HO.FAIL.INVALID.CONTENTS
l H3620A:CELL.INTERRAN.INCELL.HO.FAIL.CONG.SD
l H3629A:CELL.INTERRAN.INCELL.HO.FAIL.CONG.TCH

BSC6900 GSM
l H362L: CELL.INTERRAN.INCELL.HO.FAIL.NO.SPEECH.VERL
As shown in Figure 1, the following counters are measured at point B if the incoming inter-RAT
inter-cell handover fails because the specified CIC is unavailable or has already been allocated
to another MS, or the BSC fails to establish the terrestrial link:
l H362E:CELL.INTERRAN.INCELL.HO.FAIL.NO.CIC
l H362F:CELL.INTERRAN.INCELL.HO.FAIL.CIC.ALLOC
l H362B:CELL.INTERRAN.INCELL.HO.FAIL.APPLY.TRSL.FAIL
As shown in Figure 1, the following counters are measured at point C when the incoming inter-
RAT inter-cell handover fails because the T3121 expires after the BSC sends the HO REQ ACK
message to the MSC.
l H3620C:CELL.INTERRAN.INCELL.HO.FAIL.EXP.SD
l H3629Cb:CELL.INTERRAN.INCELL.HO.FAIL.EXP.TCH.SIG
l H3629Ca:CELL.INTERRAN.INCELL.HO.FAIL.EXP.TCH.TRAF.CH
As shown in Figure 1, the following counter is measured at point D when the incoming inter-
RAT inter-cell handover fails because the BSC releases the call after receiving the CLEAR CMD
from the MSC.
l H362H:CELL.INTERRAN.INCELL.HO.FAIL.MSC.CLR.CMD
As shown in Figure 1, when an incoming inter-RAT inter-cell handover fails due to various
causes, the specific one of the following counters is measured at point A, B, C, or D:
l H3620:CELL.INTERRAN.INCELL.HO.FAIL.SD
l H3627:CELL.INTERRAN.INCELL.HO.FAIL.TCHF
l H3628:CELL.INTERRAN.INCELL.HO.FAIL.TCHH

1.5.17 Enhanced Relocation Request Received by BSC over Iur-g

Measurement(CALL.InterRanIntoCellHo.Iurg.CELL)
Overview
When receiving an ENHANCED RELOCATION RESOURCE REQUEST message over the
Iur-g interface, the BSC determines whether to initiate the supplement handover or the optimized
handover according to the indication in the relocation request and the support capability of the
BSC. This measurement unit provides the measurements related to the supplement handover or
the optimized handover. After the Iur-g interface is introduced, the radio resource reservation
procedure is added over the Iur-g interface.
Figure 1-330 The supplement handover procedure
In the supplement handover, the resource reservation is performed between the RNC and the
BSC without the processing of the core network. To maintain the compatibility with the core
network, the original relocation procedure is still performed.

BSC6900 GSM
Figure 1-331 The optimized handover procedure
In the optimized handover, after the UE is handed over from the source RNC to the target BSC,
the data of the UE is still transmitted between the target BSC and the core network through the
source RNC. The procedure of the handover from the RNC to the BSC is transparent to the core
network. The uplink data that arrives at the target BSC is sent over the Iur-g interface to the
source RNC and then forwarded to the core network. The downlink data must arrive at the source
RNC and then be forwarded to the target BSC.

1.5.18 Outgoing Inter-RAT Inter-Cell Handover Measurement per

Cell(CALL.InterRanOutCellHo.CELL)
Overview
The Outgoing Inter-RAT Inter-Cell Handover Measurement per Cell can be classified into
Outgoing Inter-RAT Inter-Cell Handover Requests (Excluding Directed Retry) and Outgoing
Inter-RAT Inter-Cell Handover Requests (Directed Retry).
The following is the block diagram that shows the measurement points of the counters related
to outgoing Inter-RAT inter-cell handover.

BSC6900 GSM
Figure 1-332 Block diagram of outgoing inter-RAT inter-cell handover measurement procedure

BSC6900 GSM
Figure 1-333 Outgoing inter-RAT inter-cell handover requests procedure (excluding directed

handover
B Command for an incoming inter-RAT inter-

cell handover
C Complete for an incoming inter-RAT inter-

cell handover
l Outgoing Inter-RAT Inter-Cell Handover Requests (Excluding Directed Retry)

BSC2 (where the originating cell is) receives the MR from the MS, and performs handover
algorithm based on the traffic load and interference level of the serving cell, and the signal quality
and transmit/receive level reported in the MR. If the handover algorithm decides to trigger the
handover, BSC2 sends a handover triggering command to the service process handling module
to initiate the handover procedure. If the target cell of the handover is a cell belonging to another
system, the inter-RAT handover is triggered. The outgoing inter-RAT inter-cell handover
performance is measured in the source cell.
BSC2 sends HQ RQD to MSC2, requesting the MSC2 to inform another system of an inter-RAT
handover. Based on its data configuration, MSC2 finds out the corresponding MSC of the other
system, that is, MSC1, and sends a handover request to MSC1. When the other system is ready
for the handover, it informs MSC2. Then MSC2 sends an HO CMD message to BSC2 to inform
the MS of handover initiation. BSC2 sends HO CMD to the MS in the source cell, requesting

the MS to access the target cell. When the MS accesses to the target cell successfully, MSC1
notifies MSC2 of the completion of incoming inter-RAT inter-cell handover. Then MSC2 sends
CLR CMD to BSC2. When the source cell resource has been released, BSC2 replies a CLR
CMP message to MSC2. Thus, the outgoing inter-RAT inter-cell handover is complete.

l Outgoing Inter-RAT Inter-cell Handover (Directed Retry)

The MS starts the call. After receiving an ASSIGN REQ message from MSC2, BSC2 decides
the assignment mode based on the load of the cell. There are three assignment procedures: normal
assignment procedure, directed retry procedure, and mode modification procedure. If the load
of the cell is so high that the cell cannot admit a new service or that a new admitted service will
affect the current services, BSC2 decides to perform a directed retry. If the target cell selected
during the directed retry belongs to another system, BSC 2 initiates an outgoing inter-RAT inter-
cell handover procedure in the source cell. For the originating cell, an outgoing inter-RAT inter-
cell handover is initiated.

After that, BSC2 sends HQ RQD to MSC2, requesting MSC2 to notify the other system of
initiating the handover. Based on its data configuration, MSC2 finds out the corresponding of
the other system, that is, MSC1, and sends a handover request to MSC1. When the other system
is ready for the handover, it informs MSC2. Then MSC2 sends an HO CMD message to BSC2
to notify the MS of initiating the handover. BSC2 sends HO CMD to the MS in the source cell,
requesting the MS to access the target cell. When the MS gets normal access to the target cell,
MSC1 notifies MSC2 of the completion of incoming inter-RAT inter-cell handover. Then MSC2
sends CLR CMD to BSC2. When the source cell resource has been released, BSC2 replies a
CLR CMP message to MSC2. Thus, the outgoing inter-RAT inter-cell handover in the directed
retry procedure is complete.
