If the MSC and the BSC are in different central equipment rooms, place the TC
resource subrack in the same equipment room as the MSC to save transmission
resources. The reason is as follows: The circuits from the TC subrack are standard 64
kbit/s PCM circuits, while the circuits between the business processing subrack and
the TC resource subrack adopt 16 kbit/s (full rate voice service) or 8 kbit/s (half rate
voice service) voice coding and the 4:1 or 8:1 multiplexing mode. Therefore, remote
deployment of TCs can save about 75% to 87.5% transmission resources.

result obtained by using the default value deviates from the actual network status.
The default value is usually a conservative policy. More resources are required

Ratio of the A-interface CICs to the Uminterface channels. In actual applications,
not all cells in the BSC reach the peak

Note:
TRXPerCell is a network configuration input parameter. If the number of TRXs
per cell is not available, you can estimate the number of TRXs per cell by
using the following formula:
TRXPerCell = Total TRX/BTS Num/3
Simply assume that each cell is configured with one primary BCCH. In the full
rate mode, every two TRXs share one SDCCH; in the half rate mode, every
TRX uses one SDCCH.
TCHHRatio is the input data of the CS traffic model.
UmBlockRatio is the input parameter Grade of Service (GoS) on Um
interface in the traffic model.
erlangB_traffic(number of channels,block ratio) indicates the ErlangB table

and the block ratio.

ESL: extended signaling link of the BTS. If the BTS supports Flex Abis, in the case of
statistical multiplexing on a 64 kbit/s timeslot, a 64 kbit/s timeslot needs to be
assigned to the ESL. In this case, the ESL is always multiplexed with the OML in the
64 kbit/s timeslot. In the case of physical multiplexing on a 16 kbit/s timeslot, no
timeslot is assigned to the ESL. In this case, the ESL shares the same timeslot with
the OML.
P-35
Note
By default, the multiplexing ratio of Abis interface signaling links is 4:1, that is,
four RSLs or OMLs share 64 kbit/s bandwidth.
For HR traffic, the multiplexing ratio of Abis interface signaling links is 2:1, that
is, two RSLs or OMLs share 64 kbit/s bandwidth.
For satellite transmission, the Abis interface uses 16 kbit/s LAPDs, and one
RSL or OML occupies 16 kbit/s bandwidth.
SiteNoTDME1, TRXNoTDME1 and AbisLAPDMultiRate are input
parameters for BSC and network configuration.

There are two types of signaling links in the SS7 network: 64 kbit/s signaling link and
2 Mbit/s signaling link. The 2 Mbit/s signaling link consists of the standard 2048 kbit/s
link and the N x 64 kbit/s (1 < N < 32) link.
To meet the signaling requirements for large traffic volume, two signaling
transmission schemes can be used in the BSC6900.
Multiple local signaling points: The BSC6000 supports up to 4 local signaling
points, enabling 64 signaling links over the A interface.
2 Mbit/s signaling link: The maximum bandwidth of each high-speed signaling
link can be 1984 kbit/s
Note
G ranges from 0.2 to 0.4.
M and L vary with the values defined in the traffic model.
Generally, e is provided by the network operator.
