BTS TSYNCCli long: tSyncAbis: tSyncthis timer is used by the BTSE to supervise time-out of TRAU frame handling for standard speech calls (FR,HR and EFR) and data calls except 14,4kbit/s data calls. The BTSE starts this timer if 3 downlink TRAU frames have not been correctly received from the TRAU and it is reset if a correct frame is received again (It is only used if a BTS-TRAU traffic connection is established). If it expires, the BTSE reports a CONNECTION FAILURE INDICATION with cause 'remote transcoder failure' to the BSC and the connection is released.Note: For 14,4kbit/s data calls and AMR calls TSYNC is replaced by the timer [BTS-218].TSYNCDL

unit: 10msrange: 10..10000default: 1000


BTS TSYNCRCli long: tSynchronizationRAbis: tSyncRthis timer is used for 14.4 kbit/s data calls. At the beginning of every 14.4. kbit/s data connection BTS and TRAU exchange standard TRAU frames for synchronization. When this synchronization process is regarded as finished the BTS and TRAU switch over to the exchange of 'extended' TRAU frames. In the normal case this synchronization process is not repeated. If, however, the BTS loses the synchronization for the 14.4 kbits/s TRAU frames it starts timer TSYNCR and restarts the synchronization process by transmitting standard TRAU frames towards the TRAU. When the connection is re-synchronized BTS and TRAU start to send extended TRAU frames again and TSYNCR is stopped. If the synchronization could not be reestablished before expiry of TSYNCR, the resynchronization process is restarted again. Rule: TSYNCR < TSYNCUL and TSYNCR < TSYNCDL Note: According to GSM the timer TSYNCR shall also be used for EFR calls. The BR implementation deviates from this recommendation as EFR connections are handled in exactly the same way as FR connections.



Page 23 of 77


BTS TSYNCULCli long: tSynchronizationUplinkAbis: tSyncUTSYNC uplink, this timer is used only in case of 14.4 kbit/s data calls and AMR calls. If three consecutive UL TRAU frames have not been correctly received in the TRAU the synchronization between TRAU and BTS (see explanation for TSYNCR) is considered as lost. If this is the case the TRAU sets the control bit 'uplink frame error ' (UFE) in the downlink TRAU frames towards the BTS. When the BTS receives the first downlink TRAU frame with the control bit 'uplink frame error' set it starts TSYNCUL and waits for the UFE bit to disappear in the subsequent frames. TSYNCUL is stopped when three correct DL TRAU frames without the UFE have been received. When TSYNCUL expires the BTS sends a CONNECTION FAILURE INDICATION with cause 'Remote Transcoder Failure' to the BSC. Rule: TSYNCR < TSYNCUL (Recommendation TSYNCUL=1000)Note: According to GSM the timer TSYNCUL shall also be used for EFR calls. The BR implementation deviates from this recommendation as for EFR connections the timer TSYNC is used.



BTS TTRAUCli long: tTrauAbis: tTrauthis timer is used by the BTS to supervise time-out of TRAU datalink (traffic) at connection establishment or handover. After receipt of the CHANNEL ACTIVATION message the BTSE starts the timer TTRAU and starts sending uplink TRAU frames towards the TRAU. When the BTSE receives the first downlink TRAU frame from the TRAU it stops TTRAU again. If TTRAU expires, the BTSE reports a CONNECTION FAILURE INDICATION with cause 'remote transcoder failure' to the BSC and the connection is released.

For an AMR call additionally the value of this attribute is being added (i.e. sum of C/I + PL + advComprHoOffsetAMR) before being compared to the other calls suitable for compression.

This rule is relevant for single-band concentric cells, as in such configurations the coverage difference between inner and complete area is controlled by the PWRRED parameter (see command CREATE TRX). The additional margin must be applied as a kind of 'hysteresis' which avoids ping-pong handovers due to fading effects, i.e. handovers that might occur due to normal level variations even when the subscriber remains in a stationary position on the border between inner andcomplete area.
