    To encourage dual band MS to preferably camp on GSM1800 cells

    qualify GSM1800 cells as high priority: CBQ = 0, CBA = 0

    qualify GSM900 cells as low priority: CBQ = 1, CBA = 0

    Note: In case of potential impact on single band 900 phase 2 MS (it takes too long time

    to access the network?) qualify both GSM900 and GSM1800 cells as normal priority

    cells: CBQ = 0.

    To encourage dual band MS to preferably reselect GSM1800 cells set CRESOFF(GSM1800 cells) >> CRESOFF(GSM900 cells)

    (e.g. CRESOFF(GSM1800 cells) = 30 dB CRESOFF(GSM900 cells) = 0 dB)

    GeneralTo direct dual band mobiles towards the GSM1800 layer

    provide the network with information on MS multi band capabilities by

    enabling Early Class Mark Sending Option on both 900 and 1800 layers

    (e.g. set parameter: EARCLM = TRUE)

    MS sends to the network during call set-up the Mobile Station Class Mark 3 IE

    encourage the dual band MS to include in the measurement reports for HO

    purposes preferably cells from the GSM1800 band by appropriately setting the

    parameter for MULTIBAND_REPORTING

    e.g. set parameter: NMBULA = 3 on GSM900, and NMBULA = 2 on GSM1800 cells

    The HCS technique provides an optimum capacity in dual band networks by

    optimizing the distribution of traffic on up to 15 layers

    HCS is capable of taking into account the mobile speed

    The Mobile Speed Sensitive HO functionality shifts stationary and slow-moving traffic to

    indoor (pico) or micro cell layers

    improved spectrum utilization and call quality, reduced congestion in the macro cell layers

    The Mobile Speed Sensitive HO functionality steers and keeps fast-moving traffic to

    macro or umbrella cell layers

    enhanced grade of service, reduced signaling load in the fixed network
