SACCH Multi-Frames (SACCH period(480ms))

Range:0~63

Unit: SACCH period (480ms)

Default:14 Description: It is a timer used to determine whether the uplink radio link connection fails. BSS judges the uplink radio link failure according to uplink SACCH BER. (See Protocol 0508, 0858, and 0408.) Every time BTS fails to decode the MR sent from MS, this timer decreases by 1; and every time BTS succeeds to decode the MR, this timer increases by 2. When this timer reaches 0, BTS judges that the uplink radio connection fails. Then BTS sends a radio connection failure message to BSC. This parameter and the radio link timeout (RLT) are used to judge the uplink/downlink radio connection failure.

Paging Times

Range:BTS2X 1~4, BTS3X 1~8

Unit: times
Default:1 Description: In BTS2.X, this parameter is used for BTS to

determine whether paging is resent. Together with the paging

times configured in MSC, they jointly control the paging resend times. The total paging times are approximate to be the multiplication of the two. BTS3X 01.1130A and later version support paging resending function.

Max TA

Range:

0~63 (Normal cell and single TS extended cell). 0~255 (Dual TS extended cell).

Unit: bit period (1 bit = 0.55km) Default:

62 for normal cell, 63 for single TS extended cell,

219 for dual TS extended cell.

Description: Maximum Time Advance. It determines the actual coverage area of BTS. When BTS receives the channel request message, it determines whether channel assignment should take

place in the current cell by comparing the TA with the value of this
parameter. Confidential Information of Huawei.

Cell Extension Type

Range: Normal cell, Single timeslot extended cell, Dual

timeslot extended cell

Default: Normal cell Description: It indicates whether a cell is an extended cell and the extended cell mode. Single timeslot extension is based on the fixed delay extension and dual timeslot extension is based on classic extension solution.

Cell Extension Offset

Range:0~35

Unit: Km
Default: 34 (single timeslot extended cell) Description: This parameter is valid only for the single timeslot

extended cell. As the GSM time advance has a limit of 63, so

the radius of a normal cell cannot exceed 35Km. This parameter indicates the coverage radius of overlaid subcell in the single timeslot extended cell.

T200 and N200

Description:

T200 timers are used to avoid deadlock during data transfer on the data link layer.

On the LAPDm layer, every time a message is sent, the opposite end is

requested to acknowledge the reception. If this message is lost for

unknown reasons, it will occur that both ends keep waiting, leading to system deadlock.

Therefore, a timer should be started when the sender sends a message.

If the timer times out, the sender will regard that the receiver has not
received the message and will resend the message.

The maximum resend times are determined by N200. Different timer values should be set for different LAPDm channels such

as SDCCH, FACCH and SACCH. This is because these channels have

different transmission rate.

Use LAPDm N200

Range: Yes, No

Default: No
Description: Determines whether BSC delivers LAPDm N200 parameters to BTS. If it configured as Yes, then deliver LPADm N200 parameters will be delivered to BTS, otherwise not.

Interference Band Threshold 0~5

Value range: 110~85

Unit: -dBm Content: It decides the corresponding value for each

interference band (from band 0 to band 5) and used to measure

the uplink interference during the TCH timeslot is in idle mode.

Recommended values:

110 ( Interference band threshold 0) 105 ( Interference band threshold 1) 98 ( Interference band threshold 2 ) 90 ( Interference band threshold 3 ) 87 ( Interference band threshold 4 ) 85 ( Interference band threshold 5)

Confidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading without Permission. Security Level: Internal

Use Imm_Ass Retransmit Parameter

Range: Yes, No

Default: No
Description: It determines whether BSC delivers immediate assignment retransmit parameters to BTS. If it configured as Yes, immediate assignment retransmit parameters will be delivered, otherwise not.

17
Confidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading without Permission. Security Level: Internal

Max Delay of Imm_Ass Retransmit

Range: 0~254

Unit: 250 ms
Default: 4 Description: In the time of Max Delay of Imm_Ass Retransmit,

immediate assignment command can be scheduled to

retransmit. Out of this time, no retransmit.

18
Confidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading without Permission. Security Level: Internal

Max Transmit Times of Imm_Ass

Range:1~5

Unit: Times
Default: 2 Description: Max retransmit times of immediate assignment

command. When retransmit times up to this value, it stops

retransmit, even if it is not out of the time of Max Delay of Imm_Ass Retransmit.

TCH Immediate Assignment

Range: Yes, No

Default: No
Description: Option "Yes" means that TCH channel can be immediately assigned as signaling and traffic channel when SDCCH has no available resource. The option "No" means that only SDCCH can be assigned.

Immediate Assignment Optimization

Range: Yes, No

Default: No
Description: Option "Yes" means it is allowed to optimize assignment of channels activated by BTS when there are multiple MS access requests. This is to guarantee network response speed.
