This parameter affects the overall service
performance of the network and the utilization of
the radio resource. For the area with higher traffic,
the period could be bigger (for example 16 or 20
hours, even 25 hours); for the area with ordinary
traffic, the value of T3212 could be smaller (for
example 3 or 6 hours); for the area with extreme
overload traffic, it is recommended to set T3212 as
0.

The adjacent cell list transferred on BCCH can be
different from that on SACCH. When MS reports the
measurement data of adjacent cell, either BCCH
adjacent cell list or SACCH adjacent cell list will be
referred. Therefore, to know which adjacent cell list
is referred by MS, a BA indication is added when
transferring adjacent cell list on BCCH and SACCH.
When reporting the measurement result, MS
notifies the network side about the corresponding
BA indication of the referred adjacent cell list. As a
result, the network side recognizes which adjacent
cell list this MS uses. This parameter describes the
BS indication value when the adjacent cell list being
transferred on BCCH. In the case of transferring

Full name
MIN received signal level to access
Abbreviation
RxLevAccessMin
3GPP Name
RXLEV_ACCESS_MIN
3GPP
reference
3GPP TS45.008 V5.22.0

MIN received signal level to access specifies the
minimum received signal level for MS to access any
cell. In general, GSM system specifies to keep the
receiving level greater than a threshold in order to
maintain communication speech quality.
In addition, the criterion assists MS to select and
reselect the cell. System broadcasts parameter
information to all MSs in a cell through RIL3_RR
SYSTEM INFORMATION TYPE3 and TYPE4
messages. MIN received signal level to access is
one of the cell selection parameters.
Description
Recommended value is usually approximated

according to MS receiving sensitivity. When
network observes uneven traffic distribution in
certain cells, MIN received signal level to access
increases the resulting C1 and C2 to decrease the
cell effective coverage range. However, the value of
this parameter cannot be too large. Otherwise,
large value change can bring void area across cell
boundaries to result in sudden call drop problem.
The value of this parameter must not exceed -90
dBm for cell traffic balancing conditions. At the
preliminary running stage of the network, this
parameter can be usually set as 10 (that is, -101
dBm ~ -100 dBm) or lower, which is higher than
the MS receiving sensitivity 102 dBm. However,
when the network capacity is expanded or the radio
coverage in a cell is not a problem, this parameter
of the cell can be increased by 2 (dB).

Control channel MAX power level

TABLE 49 - CONTROL CHANNEL M AX POWER LEVEL
Full name
Control channel MAX power level
Abbreviation
MsTxPwrMaxCch
3GPP Name
MS_TXPWR_MAX_CCH
3GPP
reference
3GPP TS45.008 V5.22.0

In the communication between MS and BTS, the
transmission power is controlled by the network.
The network sets the power of MS by power
command, which is transmitted on SACCH (SACCH
carries the power command with 2-header bytes
information, one is power control byte and the
other one is timing advance byte).
MS sets the specified output transmission power
according to the power control header extracted
from the SACCH. MS uses the nearest possible
output power even if the power command sends
maximum output power.
For SACCH is Channel Associated Signaling and it
has to be used together with SCCCH and TCH, so
the power control of MS starts after MS receives
SACCH.
The power of MS before receiving SACCH (that is
the power when sending channel request on RACH)
is determined by Control channel MAX power level.
Description
Control channel MAX power level is one of the cell

selection and reselection parameters of MS,
involving calculation of C1 and C2 values.
This parameter is broadcasted to all MS in the cell
via RIL3_RR SYSTEM INFORMATION TYPE3 and
TYPE4.
Refer to appendix C, for the maximum power
before MS receives the power control information.
If this parameter is too large, the MS close to BTS
will interfere with the adjacent channel; If it is too
small, the MS access success rate at the edge of
cell will be very low.
Setting principle: in the premise of certain MS
access success rate at the cell edge, decrease the
access level of MS as much as possible. Generally,
it is recommended to set this parameter as 5 (for
GSM900MS) and 0 (for GSM1800MS).
In practice, after setting this parameter, perform
dialing test at the cell edge, increase or decrease
the value of this parameter according to the MS
access success rate and access time tested with
different parameter setup.

Abbreviation
BsPaMframs
3GPP Name
BS-PA-MFRMS
3GPP
reference
3GPP TS45.002 V5.13.0

Number of multiframes of the PCH specifies the
repeat cycle of PCH group subchannel using
multiple 51-MultiFrame structures. It is one of the
system control parameters.
According to GSM Specifications, a unique IMSI
identifies MS and paging group. IMSI determines
the PCH sub-channel for MS in a paging group.
Description
In the actual network, MS tunes only to the paging

sub-channel during IDLE mode in the serving cell
and ignores other paging sub-channels. In other
IDLE time, MS shuts off the hardware equipment
power supply to save power. Number of
multiframes of the PCH determines the number of
paging sub-channels of the paging channel in a
cell.
MS use this parameter to find out its home paging
group, so as to monitor corresponding paging subchannel. Network broadcasts the parameter
information to all MSs in the cell through RIL3_RR
SYSTEM INFORMATION TYPE3 message. Number of

All MSs in GSM system have an access class (15

classes in total). The MSs that are in the class
ranging between 0 and 9 are common ones. The
MSs that are in the class ranging between 11 and
15 are special MSs (no access class 10). Therefore,
the system can disable the MSs with certain access
classes to access the cell (for example during the
installation and commissioning or the congestion
control). This information can reach MS inside the
cell in RIL3_RR SYSTEM INFORMATION TYPE1, 2,
2bis, 3 and 4 messages through Access control. It
is also one of the system control parameters.
The degree of congestion for any CCCH or
processor overload during congestion control can be
reduced by temporarily prohibiting one type or
multiple types of subscribers from accessing the
system (for subscribers of access levels 0 ~ 9). In
general, the system shows the following overload
conditions:
Description

The cell reselection due to radio channel quality

takes C2 as the standard. C2 is formed according
to C1 parameter, and some special offset
parameters, to add the special influence as to
enable MS to enter some cells in priority. Usually,
such measures allow balancing the traffic on the
network.
Besides C1, there are three factors affecting C2:
Cell reselection offset, Temporary offset, and
Penalty time.
Cell reselection offset is a magnitude value, which
indicates the human modified value of C2.
Calculate a modified value of C2 to encourage or
prevent MS accessing a certain cell, so as to
implement balance network.
all MSs in the cell through RIL3_RR SYSTEM
INFORMATION TYPE3 and TYPE4 messages. It is
one of the cell selection parameters. The validity of
this parameter depends upon Cell reselection
parameter indication.
The setting of Cell reselection offset, Temporary
offset and the Penalty time are are classified into
three cases:
Description
In case of large traffic or poor

communication quality inside a cell due to
certain causes, normally MS is expected
not to work in that cell (that is, certain
repulsion to that cell).
Penalty time can be set as 31 in such cases.

Temporary offset is invalid, and the numerical
value of C2 equals C1 minus this parameter Cell
reselection offset. Therefore, the C2 value
corresponding to the cell is decreased, and reduces
the possibility that MS reselecting the cell. Besides,
the proper value of this parameter Cell reselection
offset can be set according to the repulsive nature
of cell. The more is the repulsive nature, the larger
is the Cell reselection offset. Vice versa in case of a
smaller Cell reselection offset.
For cells with small traffic and low

equipment utilization, normally MS is
encouraged to work in that cell (that is,
certain propensity to that cell).
Cell reselection offset must be set between 0 ~ 10

(corresponding to 0 ~ 20 dB) in this case,
according to tendency of the cell. The more is the
tendency, the larger is the Cell reselection offset.
Vice versa in case of a smaller Cell reselection
offset. It is usually better to set the Temporary
offset same as Cell reselection offset, or a little
higher than Cell reselection offset. The main
function of Penalty time is to avoid frequent cell
reselection of MS. The common recommended
setting is 1 (20 seconds) or 2 (40 seconds) (the
1800 cell of dual-frequency network is such a
case).

Whenever MS moves across the two cell boundaryregions with different location area codes, it
initiates Location Update (LU) procedure in IDLE
mode.
C2 values obtained at the boundary for two
adjacent cells are different because of fading
characteristic of radio channel. It causes MS to
select cell frequently. In this case, LU interval is
more than cell reselection interval. This affects call
success rate, due to unreachable paging response
to calling party.
This increases the signaling flow on the network
and causes radio resources to be fully utilized. In
addition, it decreases call completion rate of the
system, as MS cannot respond to paging during
location update.
In addition, value difference must be greater than
the value specified in CRH.
Description

INFORMATION TYPE3 and TYPE4 messages. Cell
reselecting hysteresis level is one of the cell
selection parameters.
Define Cell reselecting hysteresis level to 4 or 5 and
make certain adjustments in following cases:
62
Increase cell reselection parameters of

adjacent cells with different LAC. Signaling
traffic overload often occurs due to large
demand of services.
When the adjacent cells in different
location areas have large overlapped
coverage, it is suggested to increase the
CRH parameter.
If the adjacent cells with different LACs are
poor in overlapped coverage, that is, there
is coverage gap, or the adjacent place is
an area with few slow moving objects such
as the expressway, the CRH parameter
should be set as 1 ~ 3 (that is, 2dB ~ 6dB

Network may not perform handover or power

control if less measurement data is available during
call process. The average calculating process for
these processes is enabled only when the
measured data reaches a certain window size.
Common average process does not take place, for
the five measured values BSC receives. BSC
directly calculates the average of the 5 measured
values if the fast average process is adopted.
Description
There are three cases resulting in insufficient data

for calculating the average value, that is, call
establishment period, after handover and after
power control. After performing power control
once, former measured values are discarded in
situations where they could result in an error
control (measured values without the influence on
handover control are still existing).
In addition, old measured values are discarded
after the handover has occurred keeping it from
causing error control (the forward and backward
cells are in the same BSC).

BTS needs to measure interference on the
unallocated traffic channels. BTS calculates the
average of recent interference values on periodic
basis and converts it into corresponding
interference band information. BTS then, transfers
to BSC in the RF RESOURCE INDICATION message
to consider it as a factor in channel allocation
strategy.
Description
The interface boundaries are used to help the

conversion of the interference level (average) value
into corresponding interference band information.
Altogether six boundaries determine five
interference bands. In fact, it is unnecessary to set
interference boundary 0 and interference boundary
5. One represents infinity and the other represents
negative infinity. This parameter, describing the
remaining four boundaries, is one of the BTS
configuration parameters.
Generally, -85 dBm ~ -115 dBm is used for
interference boundaries 1 ~ 4.

reference

79
The network side (BTS) may judge whether the

radio link fails according to two criteria: One is
based on the uplink SACCH error rate and the other
is based on measured value of RXLEV/RXQUAL.
Radio link failure criterion determines the method
that the BTS uses as the standard to judge
connection failure.
Description
If SACCH error rate is used as the standard to

judge connection failure, BTS uses the same value
of Radio link timeout and the same process as MS
does. Thus, BTS avoids inconsistent judgment
standards in the uplink and downlink directions.
Meanwhile, the Receiving level threshold and
Receiving quality threshold parameters are invalid.
If the measured value of RXLEV/RXQUAL is used as
the standard to judge connection failure, BTS will
use the two parameters Receiving level threshold
and Receiving quality threshold.
The value range is as follows:
1: Uplink SACCH Error Rate Based (in

order to ensure the same judgment
standard in the uplink and downlink
directions);
2: RXLEV/RXQUAL Measurement Based

MS in single-frequency GSM system needs only to

report contents of six adjacent cells with the
strongest signals in a frequency band, when
reporting the survey result of adjacent cells to the
network.
In multi-band networking, MS can enter with
priority into a specific frequency band during
handover. The MS reports the survey result
according to the signal intensity and the frequency
band of the signals, according to the actual
situation.
Multiband report indication is used to notify MS to
report contents of adjacent cells in multiple
frequency bands. It is one of the system control
parameters.
The setting of this parameter is subject to traffic in
each frequency band. General principles to set the
parameters are as follows: 0: If the traffic of
each frequency band is almost equivalent, and the
operator has no choice over the frequency band.
3: If the traffic of each frequency band is quite
different, and the operator hopes that MS enters a
specific frequency band with priority.
Description
1: MS reports the measurement result of

one adjacent cell with strongest signal in
the frequency bands in adjacent cell list
(excluding frequency band of serving cell).
In the remaining space, MS reports
adjacent cell in local cell frequency band.
If still more space is available, MS reports
the remaining adjacent cells, regardless of
which frequency bands they are in.
2: MS reports the survey result of two
adjacent cells with the strongest signals in
the frequency bands (excluding that of
local cell) in adjacent cell table. In the
remaining space, MS reports adjacent cell
in local cell frequency band. If still more
space is available, MS reports the
remaining adjacent cells, regardless of
which frequency bands they are in.
3: MS reports the survey result of three

adjacent cells with the strongest signals in
the frequency bands (excluding that of
local cell) in adjacent cell table. In the
remaining space, MS reports adjacent cell
in local cell frequency band. If still more
space is available, MS reports the
remaining adjacent cells, regardless of

The Discontinuous Transmission (DTX) mode
means that the system does not transmit signals

conversation.
Description
This parameter controls how MS uses the DTX

mode. System broadcasts RIL3_RR SYSTEM
INFORMATION TYPE3 message to all MSs in the
cell. In addition, it may be necessary to notify MSs
of older versions (of the first stage) through the
RIL3_RR SYSTEM INFORMATION TYPE6 message
on SACCH. For MSs of newer versions, the RIL3_RR
SYSTEM INFORMATION TYPE6 message contains
Uplink discontinuous transmission. This parameter
is one of the network function parameters.
MS could use DTX;
MS should use DTX;
MS should not use DTX;
If both the BTS equipment and TRAU support the

DTX mode, set the parameter as 1 (employ DTX).
Otherwise set it as 2 (not employ DTX).

The survey report contains the large amount

Preprocess of the survey report can be transferred
to BTS to reduce the burden of Abis interface link.
After preprocess, BTS averages the survey data of
MS by its own, and reports to BSC in a lower
frequency.
Description
Average reporting period can be two, three or four

SACCH multi-frames (480 ms). That is, the
frequency decreases from the original twice/s to
once/2 s, so the message amount of Abis interface
decreases. However, the decrease of message
amount still depends on whether the message
length before preprocess is same as that after
preprocess. One disadvantage of preprocess is that
the handover control and power control are not in
time, which increases the possibility of
disconnection rate. This parameter determines
whether to use preprocess and its period or not.
0: Do not use preprocess

2: Use preprocess; the average reporting
period is 2 SACCH multi-frames

This parameter is used at MS side.
During the packet downlink transmission, if RLC
data block is the final downlink data block to be
transmitted, the network sends the RLC data block
with the Final Block Identifier (FBI) domain as 1. It
contains an effective RRBP field to initialize the
release of the downlink TBF.
For each RLC data block that receives FBI with
value 1 and contains effective RRBP domain:
Description
In acknowledged mode, the MS sends

PACKET DOWNLINK ACK/NACK message
whose FBI domain is 1 on the uplink block
specified by the RRBP domain.
In unacknowledged mode, MS sends the
PACKET

message in the uplink block specified as
per RRBP field. Then MS starts the T3192
timer.
When T3192 stops, the system releases the

resources, stops listening to the PDCCH channel,
and turns to listen to the paging channel. Within
the protection period of T3192, if the MS receives
the PACKET DOWNLINK ASSIGNMENT or PACKET

Description
This parameter is used at MS side. They belong to

the GPRS cell option parameters, and they are
broadcast to the MS in the PSI1, PSI13 and SI13
messages, indicating the values of parameters of
PAN_DEC, PAN_INC and PAN_MAX. After each
cell reselection, the MS will set the initial value of
N3102 as the PanMax value. (1) When the MS
receives the PACKET UPLINK ACK/NACK message
to move V(S) forward, it adds PanInc to N3102
(but the maximum value shall not exceed PanMax).
(2) When the MS detects the stall condition (V(S) =
V(A) + W(S)), T3182 will start. When it receives
the PACKET UPLINK ACK/NACK message that
enables V(S) < V(A) + W(S), T3182 stops. If
T3182 expires, the MS will subtract PanDec from
N3102. When the condition satisfies N3102 < 0,
the MS will take cell reselection as abnormal
release. When one of PanDec, PanInc, and PanMax
is zero, N3102 is invalid.

The network sets a level threshold P I (I = 1, 2, 3,
4) for MS of various radio priorities.
Description
For each attempt of packet access, MS abstracts a

random value R with even distribution probability
from the set {0, 1 15}. System allows MS to
initiate an attempt of packet access only when P I
is lower than or equal to R.
This parameter is an array with 4 elements. The
first element corresponds to the access and
persisting level of radio priority 1.
