Course Objectives
This material classifies radio parameters
related to PS service according to functional
modules, and describes in detail the
following aspects: the principle of
parameters, application context of functions,
suggestions for network P&O adjustment,
and etc. It is hoped that this may be helpful
to daily work in network planning and
optimization. Important Statement:
Please be informed that functions such as NCCR, PS
preemption/queuing, PFC, PBCCH, C31/32, and PS power
control, etc. are not mature in development, and therefore will not
be described in this PPT!

Initial coding mode and its dynamic adjustment (V6.20.100e and later versions)
In versions before V6.20.100e, only the initial coding mode of GPRS and EGPRS is defined, without setting the upper limit. But
considering:
1) Regarding signaling TBF, there is no need to use the highest coding scheme, as there are few bits;
2) Some operators request to disable the highest coding scheme. This aims mainly at GPRS. Some operators worry that the PS
may not be used as some MSs do not support CS3/4 coding scheme.
So,
1) In V6.20.100e, the meanings of “GPRSInitAttSelt” and “EGPRSInitAttSelt” are modified. After the modification, each of these
two parameters contains four bits, which mean: uplink initial coding scheme, downlink initial coding scheme, uplink highest
coding scheme, and downlink highest coding scheme respectively.
2)In V6.20.100e, the parameter “Highest coding scheme of signal TBF” is added (the main function is realized in V6.20.200e) to
limit the using of the highest coding scheme during the process of transmitting uplink signaling (e.g. PDP activation, routing area
update, and etc.)

EGPRS phone quality measure mode
If mode 1, 2 and 3 are adopted, in which the report is made according to timeslot and may be
missed in a few terminals, the dynamic adjustment of coding mode may be affected greatly.The measure mode based on MEAN_BEP and CV_BEP is more reasonable. The value 0 indicates reporting in TBF mode. The measurement values reported include
C_Value, Mean_BEP, and CB_BEP. To sum up, mode 0 is recommended: report in TBF mode.

Interval number of Packet Downlink/Uplink Ack/Nack
It indicates the time interval used in transmitting Packet Downlink/Uplink Ack/Nack (Block as the
unit ) ; If the parameter is set too low, uplink and downlink resource waste may occur; Too high the value may cause delayed confirmation, which will affect speed, even lead to
abnormal TBF release; If GPRS window is fixed to 64, it tends to stagnate. But in EDGE service, the window is relatively
large, and is related to the timeslot allocated (please refer to Chapter 4 for details). To sum up, higher value should be set for these parameters to improve the retransmission rate
on RLC layer.

When one-phase access is adopted, the access delay is short; The signaling message of TBF establishment success rate is Packet Uplink Assignment. The two-phase access is
carried out through sending packet resource request. If the request is not received by BSC, TBF establishment will
fail. However, even though the first UL block is not received in one-phase access, MS still has several chances to
send UL blocks and BSC has several chances to receive UL blocks. As long as the UL block is received by BSC
within specific time (T3156, 5s) and number of blocks (N3104: (3*BS_CV_MAX+9)*number of channels), TBF
establishment will succeed. Therefore, TBF establishment success rate is higher when one-phase access is used.In sum, choose not to use the forced two-phase access; decide TBF access mode according to the number of data
blocks to be transmitted and whether the TBF type is signaling TBF.

to be 64; there is a high risk of window histeresis, which may seriously
impact data throughput.For EDGE service, the max window supported is 1024, which can be
dynamically adjusted according to occupation of timeslots at MS. In EDGE service, window size is carried in the following messages:

Introduction to Functions, Timers and Counters Related to TBF Establishment & Release
Confidential ▲
T3168Function: This timer is used for MS to decide
when to stop waiting for the Packet UL
Assignment message after it sends Packet
Resource Request or PACKET CONTROL
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT to apply for new TBF.
Beginning: When applying for new TBF, MS
sends PACKET RESOURCE REQUEST, which
carries channel request message unit PACKET
DOWNLINK ACK/NACK or PACKET CONTROL
ACKNOWLEDGEMEN. The timer begins.
Cessation: when PACKET UPLINK
ASSIGNMENT is received, the timer ceases.
Expiration: When Packet access flow is restarted
or PACKET RESOURCE REQUEST / PACKET
DOWNLINK ACK/NACK is retransmitted, the
timer expires. At most 3 times of retransmission
is allowed.
T3168 value has an impact on TBF establishment success rate. The smaller the value is set, the less time is left for TBF establishment, which means lower TBF establishment success rate, especially when radio environment is poor. Whereas, larger timer value leads to longer period for MS to judge TBF establishment failure, which means longer delay of packet access and lower system performance. It’s suggested to set the timer a value between 1000ms ~ 2000ms according to the radio environment in the cells.
Confidential ▲
Initial TBF Establishment is supported
Initial TBF establishment means : When uplink TBF is released, the CTRL_ACK in the last Packet Control
Acknowledgement will indicate whether a new uplink TBF needs to be established immediately.
Theoretically, enabling this function can avoid the situation that uplink TBF must be released before
resource allocation requests are initiated again to establish uplink TBF. Thus, uplink throughput can be
improved.
As most MSs (BlackBerry, and fake phones)are not completely compatible with this function, those that do
not fully support initial TBF establishment may not access network. It is not recommended to enable this
function in versions before iBSC V6.20.200f.p005;
As this function might be enabled in the field by mistake, it has been disabled on OMCR for iBSC
V6.20.200f.p005 and later versions, but it can still be seen on OMCR.

The function of extended uplink TBF is
to immediate enable data transmission
again, if new data needs to be
transmitted when the countdown
process starts. Otherwise, new uplink
TBF can only be established after the
present TBF is totally released.
Besides, it helps to maintain the
establishment of uplink TBF when the
last block (CV=0) has been
acknowledged by the network. In this
way, this function helps to speed up the
transmission of uplink data, the
establishment of downlink TBF.According to data or signaling, the
extended uplink TBF can be
configured separately. It is
suggested that both are enabled
so as to improve uplink/downlink
throughput capacity.

Packet downlink assignment
With uplink TBF, when the data block CV=0
is received, if there is no downlink TBF, then
uplink delay time occurs. At this time, if there
is no transmission of downlink data,
downlink is established on PACCH, and
uplink TBD is released. In other words, it
does not need Polling or Paging to establish
downlink TBF. When the uplink delay time is
out according to the timer, the uplink TBF
should be released.
If the terminal and the system support
extended uplink TBF, the timer ceases to be
effective. So only one of the two functions
can be chosen.
The configuration of time is relatively long, which helps to establish downlink TBF when there is no transmission of
uplink data.However, this function is not as good as extended uplink TBF. That is, even if it is needed to transmit the uplink data
during this time, the transmission will not happen until the Timer expires and the uplink TBF is newly established. This
situation affects the uplink throughput.In summary, it is suggested that the default value of this parameter should be 1000ms.
Confidential ▲
Release time of downlink delay time
To avoid the repetitive release and
re-establishment of downlink TBF,
when downlink data TBF is
established, the timer for downlink
delay time is added. In this way,
during the downlink delay time, if
LLC frame of the upper layer needs
to be transmitted, the downlink data
is still transmitted by the original
TBF, and it does not need to re-
establish TBF. Therefore, the
establishment of downlink TBF
needs less time. Rel

The bigger the parameter is configured, the longer TBF related resources (including TFI and timeslot) is reserved.If the configuration of the parameter is not big enough, it is not good for the discontinuous transmission of downlink
data.Therefore, the configuration of this data should take the service load of the cell into full consideration. Under the
circumstance that network resources are rich, the configuration of the time should be longer so as to reduce the time
for establishing TBF and enhance the transmission data of downlink data.

T3191/T3192/T3193Timer Function Start Stop
T3191
T3191 is used to calculate the time before network can use the TFI again after it sends the final RLC data block. This timer helps the network side to confirm that the resources allocated to MS are invalid so as to reuse the TFI.
After network sends a RLC data block whose Final Block Identifier
(FBI) domain is 1
1. When the final PACKET
DOWNLINK ACK/NACK or
PACKET CONTROL
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT message is
received;
2. It is restarted when network sends an
RLC data block whose FBI=1.
T3192
T3192 initializes the release of downlink TBF after the final data block is received. This timer is used when MS receives all RLC data blocks.
1. In acknowledged mode, the MS sends
PACKET DOWNLINK ACK/NACK message
whose FBI domain is 1.
2. In unacknowledged mode, MS sends the
PACKET CONTROL ACKNOWLEDGE message as the response for the final RLC data block.
1.It restarts when the MS sends
PACKET DOWNLINK ACK/NACK message
whose FBI domain is 1.
2. In unacknowledged mode, it restarts when MS sends PACKET CONTROL ACK message as the response for the final RLC data block.
3. It stops when MS receives PACKET DOWN LINK ASSIGNMENT message.
4. It stops when MS receives PACKET TIME SLOT RECONFIGURE
T3193
After network receives the final PACKET DOWN- LINK ACK/NACK from MS, the timer calculates the time before network reuses TFI. This timer helps the network side to confirm that T3192 expires so as to reuse the TFI.
The final PACKET DOWNLINK ACK/NACK or PACKET CONTROL ACKNOWLEDGE message is received.
1. The network establishes a new downlink TBF2. It is restarted when the final PACKET DOWNLINK ACK/NACK or PACKET CONTROL ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
message is received
The higher the value of T3192, the longer time TBF resources will be reserved (including TFI and timeslot); lower value of T3192 will hinder the discontinuous
transmission of downlink data. If T3192 has expired, but there is new downlink data in network, network will need to initiate paging or immediate assignment (if MS
is in ready state), thus, downlink TBF establish will take a longer time. However, if T3192 does not expire when there is downlink data in network, network can send
“packet downlink assignment” message to establish a new downlink TBF and shorten the time for TBF establishment. Therefore, the traffic of the current cell should
be taken into full account for the setting of T3192/T3193, which should be set to a higher value when there is sufficient network resource, so as to shorten the time
for TBF establishment and to improve data transmission rate. T3193 should be set to a higher value than T3192 ;In many sites, BlackBerry mobiles and some fake mobiles do not completely support T3192/T3193. Sometimes, network connection of these mobiles will be
interrupted, or they can not access network, in this case, please set a lower value to T3192/T3193.

Definition: It configures the maximum duration for MS to implement non-DRX mode when MS enters packet idle mode
from packet transmission mode. When MS enters packet idle mode from packet transmission mode, it needs to keep non-
DRX mode for a period of time. When TBF is released, with the non-DRX mode, MS will monitor all the CCCH blocks and
PCU will reserve the context related to MS.
When PCCCH channel is not configured for the network, with the non-DRX mode, the “Immediate assignment command”
can be sent on all PCH and AGCH channels and the process only lasts for dozens of ms. However, with the DRX mode,
MS can only monitor the paging messages within the paging group it belongs to. Then the message of “immediate
assignment message” is received by all the paging blocks and AGCH reserved blocks. Besides, the process for receiving
the paging message lasts for a relatively long time (It is related to the configuration of some parameters like the number of
multiframes of paging channel and the number of reserved blocks of AGCH).
However, with the non-DRX mode, the power consumption of the battery is increased.
In general, it is suggested that the configuration of the parameter should be larger, for example, 4 ~ 6s.

Counter Description of functionsN3101 For a USF, if the network receives correct data form a specified uplink block, N3101 clears for that TBF. If the
number of losses in specified uplink block exceeds N3101(N3101max), then T3169 timer starts. The network uses the TFI and USF resources when T3169 stops.
N3103 When the last PACKET UPLINK ACK/NACK message (FAI=1) of a TBF is sent, N 3103 is reset. If the PACKET CONTROL ACKNOWLEDGEMENT message is not received by the specified block of the network side, N3103 will have an increment and sent the PACKET UPLINK ACK/NACK again. If the counter N3103 exceed the limiting N3103max, the network will start T3169. The network uses TFI and USF resources when T3169 stops.
N3105 During the packet downlink transmission, BSS will configure RRBP domain on downlink RLC data block at set intervals so as to notify MS to send the “RLC/MAC control” message on corresponding uplink blocks (e.g., “packet downlink confirmation” message and the like). For a TBF, if the number of losses of “RLC/MAC control” message in specified uplink block exceeds N3105 (N3105max), T3195 starts. The network uses TFI resources when T3195 stops.
According to the definitions of N3101/N3103/N3105, it can be seen that if the configuration of these counters and Timers is a bit larger than the default value, TBF failure rate can be reduced to some extent.

32 When MS detects the stall condition of the window (V(S) = V(A) + WS), MS will start T3182. When PACKET
UPLINK ACK/NACK is received, which enables V(S) < V(A) + WS, T3182 stops. When T3182 expires, MS will
subtract PanDec from N3102 , and will implement the abnormal release of the TBF and make it accessed and
have a retry. When MS receives the PACKET UPLINK ACK/NACK message from the network which allows the
increase of V(S) or V(A), MS will add PanInc to N3102. However, N3102 can not exceed the value defined by
PanMax. When N3102≤0, MS will implement the abnormal release of the TBF, and will trigger the cell reselection. If the configuration of PanDec , PanInc and PanMax is 0, N3102 is invalid. The configuration of T3182 is fixed, that is 5s, and it can be changed. In summary, the addition of PanInc and PanMax, or the subtraction of PanDec can make it less possible that when
MS does not receive Packet Uplink Ack, TBF is released in an abnormal way and the cell is reselected. On the
other hand, when the send window stops, and can not send data, MS will occupy the radio resources for a
relatively long time. In this way, the utilization ratio of resources is not high. If possible, it is suggested that it should
be avoided that TBF is released in an abnormal way and the cell is reselected. Besides, the default value should
be reserved.

T3142
Wait for the time to initiate new packet access after IMMEDIATE
ASSIGNMENT REJECT
The timer is used during packet access on CCCH, after the receipt of an IMMEDIATE
ASSIGNMENT REJECT message.
The timer expires Initiate new packet access request.
T3172
Before T3172 expires, MS shall not initiate new packet access attempt in the same cell. It could attempt packet assess in the new cell after cell reselection succeeds.
The timer is started after the receipt of the PACFKET ACCESS REJECT message, which corresponds to one of the latest three packet channel request messages
PACKET UPLINK ASSIGNMENT message is received.
MS returns to idle packet mode. The packet access in this cell is prohibited no more. But Channel Request message could not be sent as the paging response before the receipt of Paging request message.
This is realized in V6.20.100e. The T3122 value is used in previous versions. Too high the setting may influence the overall access performance into the network, affecting
customers’ satisfaction. Too low the setting tends to block further the channels when the radio channel is heavily
loaded.ZTE default value is recommended.

Dynamic Allocation
Extend Dynamic Allocation
Note: It is only supported by terminals of R4 or higher.
As to dynamic allocation, each uplink
PDCH should have a corresponding
downlink PDCH to schedule it.
Therefore, the number of uplink PDCH
should be no more than that of downlink
PDCH. In this case, some defects exist
for those services which mainly center
around uplink services (e.g., uploading,
sending EMAIL and so on).
It is supported by extend dynamic
allocation that one downlink PDCH can
schedule several uplink PDCH. In this
case, it can better support the services
which center around uplink services.
It is suggested that this function should
be enabled.

In V6.20.100f, the parameter “Initial Downlink Allocation by Multislot Class 1” is
added. If,
This parameter is set as “No,” PDTCH will be allocated according to the actual Multislot class
supported by MS.
If this parameter is set as “Yes,” PDTCH will be allocated according to Multislot Class 1 in
priority. Then, the UL/DL resources will be allocated according to the relevant parameter
“Resource adjust threshold.”
It is recommended to set this parameter as “No” to improve downlink speed.
In versions before V6.20.100f, only the algorithm involved in parameter
“Resource adjust threshold” is available. This will be dealt with in the next page.

For terminals which are not at ready state (that is at standby state of CS), under the same LA,
reselection will not be triggered until C2 of the non-serving cell surpasses C2 of the serving cell for 5
seconds. After one reselection, if another reselection is needed within 15 seconds, C2 of the new cell
should be larger than C2 of the serving cell by 5dB for 5 seconds.For terminals at ready state, reselection will not be triggered unless C2 of the new cell is at least
larger than C2 of the serving cell + CELL_RESELECT_ HYSTERESIS dB for 5 seconds.In these two situations, after the cell reselection, MS will not return to the original cell in the following
5 seconds.

Introduction to added reselection parameter indicator
This paramter defines whether C2 related parameters are broadcast on SI4 or SI7/8.
SI7/8 can only be broadcast on extended BCCH.
Some terminals do not support SI7/8. If this function is enabled, some terminals can
not have the network access.
In general, if C2 needs to be enabled, the configuration of CellReselPI should be
“YES”, and the configuration of AdditionReselPI should still be “NO”.

The relation between BVC and MS flow control
PS flow control is conducted at Gb interface from SGSN to BSS and controls only downlink. It is
implemented by SGSN through control parameters provided by BSS, aiming to avoid the possibility
that a BVC on BSS discards some LLC data because packet channel is too busy (too many buffer
LLC frames) or the possibility that downlink LLC data is discarded as a result of memory resource
limitation.
The transmission of downlink BSSGP DL_UNITDATA PDU from SGSN is controlled by BSS, which
uses flow control to adjust leak bucket so that the memory data in it will be reduced to the maximum
without interrupting downlink TBF transmission. More memory data in leak bucket consumes resource
and will be discarded when the life circle of this memory data expires, which is informed to SGSN by
LLC_DISCARDED PDU and will trigger off data retransmission at Gb interface.
An LLC PDU could be sent out, only after MS flow control and BVC flow control are implemented by
SGSN. BVC leakage ratio is the sum of all MS leakage ratios within the cell.
It is recommended that MS flow control and BVC flow control be enabled simultaneously.

Introduction to flow control mode
Mode 1: report flow control parameter according to the actual radio interface traffic
statistics taken at BSC side.
Mode 2: report flow control parameters according to the maximum traffic that could be
provided in a cell.
Mode 3: reserved.
When mode 1 is selected, BSC will report flow control parameter according to the actual radio
interface traffic statistics. In practical use, as the actual statistics may be a little low as a result
of radio interface retransmission and TBF failure, when BSC reports flow control parameter,
the actual traffic will be multiplied by a certain times defined by the parameter, and parameter
“flow control mode 1” is used to define this times. If flow control mode 1 is adopted, it is
recommended to set flow control mode 1 as about 3~5.
When flow control mode 2 is adopted, BSC will report flow control parameter according to the
maximum traffic available in a cell. The maximum traffic is based on the number of channels
allocated, the calculation formula is: number of channels X the maximum traffic available in
each channel. Parameter “flow control mode 1” is used to define this speed, to which the unit
is 100bps. If flow control mode 2 is adopted and EDGE is enabled, this parameter should be
set as 592 or above.Attention: for MOTO and HW SGSN, mode 2 should be adopted.

Introduction to DTM function
Supported by DTM function, both CS and PS could be conducted simultaneously in MS type A.
DTM function consists of two modes: GTTP and TBF. In CS, if there is few PS signaling needs to
be transmitted, it will be transmitted in GTTP message on SACCH. If there is a large amount of
packet data, it will need to establish TBF and allocated packet channel to carry out transmission.
Maximum number of GTTP Lapdm frame: it defines the maximum number of GTTP Lapdm
frames when the TCH allocated in CS finishes PS signaling interaction service; the value 3 could
satisfy common data services such as RAU, and ATTACH, and etc.; if it is set too high, user
perception will be influenced a little. For requirements that could not be met by maximum number
of GTTP Lapdm, TBF is the only way out.
In current V6.20 series version (001 series and 100 series), handover between data service and
CS under DTM mode has been possible, so DTM function could be enabled.

How to make MS support CS when it is transmitting data?
If there is no Gs interface, MS type B will not monitor CCCH when it is in data. In this case,
if paging coordination function is enabled, BSC will check whether this MS is in PS service
when it receives CS paging messages from A interface. If the MS is in PS service, it will
send the CS paging message to MS on the PDTCH the MS is transmitting data so as to
make the MS responds to the paging and suspend the ongoing data service to conduct
CS.
For MS type A, DTM function could be enabled so that PS and CS could be conducted
simultaneously.

Introduction to advantages of NACC function
NACC allows BSC to aid the GPRS/EDGE MS under Packet Transfer mode to conduct cell update. The time delay in cell reselection is due mainly to the time consumed to collect the whole set of system messages (SI1, 3, 13), so NACC is expected mainly to reduce the time used to wait for SI. When MS needs reselection, it will send Packet Cell Change Notification to inform system about the BCCH/BSIC of the target cell, without interrupting data transmission. System will send the system message of the target cell to MS through Packet Neighbor Cell Data message in packet transmission, reducing the time of transmission interruption caused by receiving system message.
NACCs outside and inside of BSC function the same, both aim to speed up the access to new cells when MS makes cell reselection. This is realized through the method that MSC sends MS system message of the new cell in the original cell before MS makes cell reselection, saving the time that MS spends to receive system message after reselected the new cell. On the contrary, the NACC outside of BSC needs SGSN and RAN Information Management ( RIM ) process to obtain the system information of the cells outside of BSC.
Outside NACC is applicable to V6.20.100e and above. LLC frame transfer function in the same CMP module is applicable to V6.20.200e and above. LLC frame transfer function in different CMP modules is not supported temporarily.

Introduction to CCN mode
CCN mode is cell change notification, which is broadcasted to MS through system message.
When CCN is allowed in BSS, if MS in NC0 and NC1 mode needs cell reselection, a PACKET
CELL CHANGE NOTIFICATION will be sent to BSS. After BSS receives this message and
obtains system messages of the neighbor cells, it will send certain system messages of
candidate cells. Only after BSS receives PACKET CELL CHANGE NOTIFICATION will it send
the required system message to MS, i.e. NACC is enabled only in CCN mode.

The system message of the reselected cells sent from service cell is not the
whole set of system message, instead, it is only a part, which contains the
parameters MS should acquire in order to access the reselected cell. However,
this part of system messages could not guarantee the immediate access of MS
to the reselected cell, to which the precondition is the reselected cell supports
PSI Status (PBCCH has been allocated) or SI Status. If PSI Status or SI Status
is supported in the reselected cell, it could be guaranteed that MS receive the
whole set of system messages under packet transmission. In this case, MS will
be able to enter into packet transmission in the reselected cell immediately,
without spending extra time in monitoring system messages.
After accessed the reselected cell, MS will send PSI(SI)Status message to
network side on PACCH. After received this, BSC will send Packet Serving Cell
SI as indicated so that MS could acquire more system messages needed
without going back PBCCH (BCCH) for monitoring, reducing the time of service
interruption.
If PSI(SI) Status is not supported in the reselected cell, MS need try to receive
the whole set of system messages at least once after entering the reselected
cell, therefore, packet service needs to be interrupted for a longer time. Use
PSI Status message if PBCCH is allocated, otherwise, use SI Status message.

NACC signaling flow
When MS meets the condition for cell reselections, and supports CCN mode, it will transmit
on PACCH the PACKET CELL CHANGE NOTIFICATION message, which contains BCCH
and BSIC of the target cell for cell reselection. After received this message, BSC will send
PACKET NEIGHBOUR CELL DATA message, which contains system message in the
needed target cell during cell reselection. Then, BSC will send PACKET CELL CHANGE
CONTINUE message to inform MS to continue cell reselection.
Confidential ▲
Comparison between the signaling flow of MS- controlled cell retransmission and that under NACC
According to the above figure, after NACC is enabled, in data transmission mode, network
provides the SI1 , SI3 and SI13 of the target cell of MS on PACCH, so as to reduce the
procedures for MS to monitor these system messages of the target cell in cell reselection
process (NC0 mode). Thus, the time of interrupted data transmission caused by cell reselection
is reduced.

Introduction to Timers and Counters related to obtaining inter-BSC NACC neighbor cell (P)SI TRIR: this timer is started when service BSC requires system message from target BSC, and is
stopped when service BSC receives system message from target BSC. If this timer expires, message
request flow will be regarded as failed, and service BSC will initiate another message request; TRI: this timer is started when target BSC waits for ACK response after it sends system message to
service BSC, and is stopped when target BSC receives the ACK response from service BSC. TRIAE: this timer is started when service BSC waits for ACK response, after it initiates RAN
Information Application Error flow when receiving incorrect system message. It is stopped when service
BSC receives ACK response from target BSC.
As the minimum value for these three Timers is 5s, even though the maximum RIMRetryTimes is set as
1, the reselection process will cost a long time; therefore, it would be better for MS to restart cell
reselection when it discovers another suitable candidate cell that satisfy the condition for cell
reselection after the above timer expires. This helps to select the best candidate cell. RIMRetryTimes is
recommended to be set as 0.

After CM service is ended, system sends channel release to MS. It could be learnt from the specific RR cause that the RR CAUSE is Normal event because system does not support RESUME function. MS needs to initiate route update to request for continuing FTP process.
After MS receives the channel release, to which the RR cause is normal event, it will initiate uplink channel request to establish TBF to continue GPRS service through route update.
In the FTP downloading process, MS initiates CM service request, which is reflected in MS sending short messages
MS initiates GPRSSuspension request. From the specific suspension cause, it could be learnt that the suspension is caused by MS initiating short message service.

Advantages of Suspend/Resume Functions and their implementation methods in ZTE
There are obvious advantages in using RESUME function, reflected mainly in:
1. Reducing PCU load: RAU will generate large amount of signaling and PS traffic, increasing
both SGSN load and TBF reuse rate; the number of TBFs needed to be maintained by PCU
and the number of GPRS channel will also increase, leading to heavier PCU load.
2. Shortening PS interruption: compared with RESUME, RAU consumes longer time, in this
case, the time of PS interruption will be longer.
But, the implementation method adopted in ZTE differs from what is stipulated in GSM protocol,
which is detailed as follows:
1. If the ResumeSetOpt of RESUME is set as Open, BSC side will send SUSPEND to SGSN
but not send RESUME to MS, and MS will conduct RAU automatically;
2. If the ResumeSetOpt of RESUME is set as Close, BSC side will not send SUSPEND to
SGSN but will send back RESUME to MS, in this case, MS will not trigger off RAU.
It could be learnt from the above that, if the ResumeSetOpt of RESUME is set as Open, MS will
trigger off RAU after CS is ended; if RAU fails or costs too long time, the test KPIs of CS will
be affected greatly. It is recommended to set this option as Close in CS test, or set MS as
ATTACH only when necessary.

For V6.00.100a series, all sub-versions of 6.10, and all sub-versions of 6.20, one algorithm is
added for the allocation strategy of TCH. According to this algorithm, TCH is allocated on
basis of the timeslot number from high to low, that is, 0/7>1/6>2/5>3/4.
If this algorithm is added, it can be seen that strategy C is the best among the three planning
methods of PDTCH, that is, A, B, and C. The reasons for this are as follows :For strategy A, when the voice service occupies the third or fourth timeslot, the data service can
not occupy 4 continuous Tsl.For strategy B, when the voice service occupies the third or fourth timeslot, the data service can
not occupy 4 continuous Tsl.For strategy C, when the voice service occupies the fifth timeslot, the data service can not

PDCHPrecedence function
If there is the parameter of PDCHPrecedence in timeslot parameters, it indicates that the function
of absolute preference of PS service is added to this version. If this parameter is enabled (The
configuration is Yes.), data service can compete for the channel which is being used for voice
service. However, it is not the other way round. At present, all GSM networks give priority to voice
service, so this funciton has not been used in the work field yet. However, some aspects need to
be paid attention to when static PDTCH is configured or static PDTCH is changed into dynamic
PDTCH:
If the parameter TsChannelComb of timeslot level is manually modified as the type of
PDTCH+PACCH+PTCCH, the parameter of PDCHPrecedence will be automatically modified as
“Yes”. However, if it is modified by batch operation or the Template (NetworkPlan) is used to
import directly, PDCHPrecedence of the static PDTCH channel must be configured as “Yes”.
If the dynamic channel is not configured as absolute preference for PS service,
PDCHPrecedence must be configred as “No” when static PDTCH is changed into dynamic
channel. The purpose for this is to give absolute priority to CS service.

If there is the parameter of priority attribute of packet service channel in timeslot parameters, it indicates that this
version is added the priority attribute of packet service channel. This parameter defines 4 types of PDTCH channel,
that is, GPRS preference channel, EDGE preference channel, EDGE exclusion channel, and non-preference
channel. The adoption of this function is to reduce or avoid the possibility that subscribers of GPRS and EDGE share
PDTCH so as to improve the subscriber perception.
If this function is used, the following aspects needs special attention:
GPRS preference channel or EDGE preference channel are only relative concepts. They will not be effective unless
some groups of PDTCH are defined as GPRS preference channel, and some groups of PDTCH are defined as EDGE
preference channel.
EDGE exclusion channel is only for subscribers of EDGE service. On the one hand, it can improve the perception of
EDGE subscribers, on the other hand, it will waste some resources.
At present, ZTE equipment can reuse the modulation mode of GMSK and 8PSK at Block level.

The function of conversion from static TCH/F to HR and SDCCH
If there is HRTsPercentage in cell parameters, it means that the function of conversion from static TCH/F
to HR and SDCCH is available. On the other hand, if this function exists, it means that there is no
constraint that dynamic PDTCH and dynamic HR need to share the switch. Besides, there is no need to
configure most of the service channels of the cell as dynamic channels for sake of dynamic HR.
Notes:
For SDR, the capacity planning for each BSC HR should not exceed 15000Erl.
The default value of HRTsPercentage is smaller than 50%, which limits the largest usage ratio of HR.
So it should be adjusted flexibly according to the actual application of HR.

Introduction to PDTCH allocation algorithm based on the idle threshold of a TRXObjective
During the application of PDTCH resource, subscribers should be gathered on idler
TRXs as much as possible so as to avoid meaningless expansion;
When the calculated idle threshold of TRX is lower than the value of TrxPSBusyThs,
PS service should be balanced among different TRXs. Select in priority other idler
TRXs for allocation, in order to increase subscribers’ rate.
Formula to calculate the idle threshold of a TRX (at timeslot level)
The limit in all useable PS times on a TRX (value:0~16)* Abis bandwidth (EDGE:4;
GPRS: 2)*100/(number of PS subscribers on a TRX+1)/number of useable timeslots
Points for attention in setting TrxPSBusyThs
Only the idle threshold of downlink TRX is calculated currently;
Sequence of application: TRXs on which busy threshold is lower than this threshold
→idle TRXs →TRXs on which busy threshold is higher than this threshold;
In field application, the value of this parameter should be increased gradually to
reduce the reuse rate of PS users. This is more effective in improving the speed during
the throughput test to cells with busy PS service.

For cells of small sites, if the static PDTCH is not configured, CsChansThs should be configured as 0,
if possible. In this way, it can be avoided that the normal data service can not carry on when the voice
service is busy.
As to PSRelDelay, if possible, the dynamic channel should keep the type of TCH since priority is given
to the voice service. Besides, since the minimum value of this Timer is 20s, it is suggested that 20s should
be the minimum value.

If this function is supported by the cell, through the field of PRE_EMPTIVE_TRANSMISSION
of PACKET UPLINK ACK/NACK message, the network can indicate whether the handset can
send the RLC data of PENDING-ACK when there are no NACK state data and no new RLC
data blocks need to be sent, or when the send window is full. If the function of preemptiveTrans
bit is enabled, the throughput can be improved to some extent.

In theory, if this function is enabled, it can largely prevent subscribers of voice service
from occupying the dynamic PDTCH channel. However, at present, if this function is
enabled, the indicators like handover and call drop will be greatly influenced. So it is
suggested that it should not be enabled.

It is sent to the handset in PACKET UPLINK ASSIGNMENT message. It indicates that when the cell adopts
the media control method of “dynamic allocation”, the network will allocate uplink block granularity to the
GPRS handset.
A smaller configuration can avoid the waste of resources.A smaller configuration can make the allocation of resources more flexible.If 4 granularities, which are not continuous, are chosen to be allocated at one time, the allocation will fail.
Therefore, it is suggested that the configuration of this parameter should be 0, and each time one
granularity should be allocated to subscribers.

To guarantee that there is no artificial constraint on USF high limit and TFI high limit on a
PDCH. So these two parameters are open. A low rate can be allowed. However, it can not be
allowed that resources are available but subscribers can not have the access because of human
factors. It is suggested that the configuration of uplink is 7, and the configuration of downlink is 16
or a little bit lower.

Introduction to Relevant Poc Parameters
The parameter “Optimized PoC service support” is used to control the following five parameters:
PSCAPATHS_UL, PSCAPATHS_DL, PocAttSelt_0, PocAttSelt_1, and PocSrcThs. Only when it is set
as “Yes” could relevant Poc optimization parameters work.
The parameters “Maximal users of POC service on shared PS channel 0” and “Maximal users of POC
service on shared PS channel 1” are used to define maximum number of users of the Poc service on
shared UL/DL Poc channel;
The parameters “Highest coding scheme of POC service in GPRS” and “Highest coding scheme of
POC service in EGPRS” are used to define the highest coding scheme that could be used in Poc
service;
The parameters “Maximal resource for POC service” defines the percentage of current PS resource
that could be occupied in Poc service. Note: 1) the number when the database obtained PDTCH should
be used as the basis for calculation; 2) if fraction occurs, the calculation results should be rounded
down; 3) this part of resources will be allocated to Poc users; only this part of resources could be used
for Poc service, i.e. this is the only resource that could be used by Poc service.
