SRAN3.0 Optional Feature Description
6 Multi-mode Evolution
6.1 SingleRRM
6.1.1 MRFD-211401 NACC Procedure Optimization
Availability
This feature is available from SRAN3.0.
Summary
With this feature, the network assisted cell change (NACC) procedure is performed through
the internal information exchange mechanism of the MBSC. As a result, the interoperability
of PS services between the 2G cells and the 3G cells under the same MBSC does not involve
the CN. In this manner, the time taken to perform the NACC procedure is shortened by about
680ms. In addition, the NACC procedure does not require the support of the CN.
Benefits
This feature shortens the time for the NACC procedure. In addition, this feature provides an
NACC solution without the CN supporting the RAN information management (RIM)
procedure.
Description
According to the 3GPP specifications, in the NACC procedure, the GERAN (P) SI is obtained
through the RIM procedure. The NACC procedure involves the RNC, SGSN (3G), SGSN
(2G), and BSC. With this feature, the 2G GERAN (P) SI of the same MBSC need not be sent
through the CN. Instead, the GERAN (P) SI is sent through the internal information exchange
mechanism of the MBSC.
To perform the exchange of the GERAN (P) SI between the 2G cells and the 3G cells under
different MBSCs, the standardized NACC procedure is still performed.
Due to no definition for 2G to 3G NACC procedure in 3GPP, the NACC procedure of 2G to
3G is not realized.

6.1.2 MRFD-211402 MBSC Load Balancing

Availability
Summary
This feature is based on the internal information exchange mechanism of the MBSC. With
this feature, the traffic is distributed through the radio resource connection (RRC) redirection
and load-based GSM and UMTS handover on the basis of the handover attributes and the load
of the 2G and 3G networks when an MS accesses the network. In this manner, the load is
balanced between the GSM network and the UMTS network.
Benefits
Based on the internal information exchange mechanism of the MBSC, this feature balances
the load between the GSM network and the UMTS network. As a result, the load of the GSM
network and the UMTS network in the same coverage area increases evenly, the risk of
network congestion due to the load imbalance between networks is reduced, and thus the
network usage is increased.

Page 5 of 17
Description
With this feature, the networks in the same coverage area have nearly the same load. Thus, the
access failures during the MS access are greatly reduced, and each network has remaining
resources to provide a higher rate for the PS services. If the GSM cells and the UMTS cells
under the same MBSC have the same-coverage area, GSM and UMTS load balance in RRC
state and after RAB (Radio Access Bearer) establishment are available for load balance based
on the internal information exchange mechanism.
The GSM and UMTS load balance in access state consists of two parts: redirection of a
proportion of CS services to the 2G cell at the RRC stage, and the GSM and UMTS
load-based handover after the RAB establishment.
1. GSM and UMTS load balance in RRC state by redirection
Redirection of a proportion of CS services to the 2G cell at the RRC stage: When an MS
initiates the RRC access request in the 3G cell to request the CS services, the services are
redirected to the 2G cell according to the configured traffic distribution proportion if the load
in the 2G cell in the same coverage area is lower. In this manner, the CS services of the MS in
the 3G cell are proportionally redirected to the 2G cell. Thus, a larger capacity is reserved in
the 3G system for the MSs that perform high-rate PS services.
2. GSM and UMTS load-based handover after the RAB establishment
The handover is performed on the basis of the handover attributes, PS services rate, and
difference between the load of the 2G system and that of the 3G system after the RAB
establishment.
When an MS requests the CS services in a 2G cell, a suitable network is selected to carry the
CS services on the basis of the load of the existing networks. The system hands over the MS
to the 3G neighboring cell based on the predefined probability to improve the user experience
and balance the load between the 2G network and the 3G network if the following
requirements are met:
 The MS supports the UMTS network.
 The services of the MS can be carried on the UMTS network based on the CN indication
or the configuration on the access network. In addition, the assignment rate exceeds the
threshold of the low-rate PS services.
 The load in the 3G neighboring cell is lower.
 The difference between the load in the source cell and the load in the target 3G cell
exceeds the configured threshold.
When an MS requests the CS services in a 3G cell, a suitable network is selected to carry the
CS services on the basis of the load of the existing networks. The system hands over the MS
to the 2G neighboring cell to balance the load between the 2G network and the 3G network if
the following requirements are met:
 The MS supports the GSM network.
 The services of the MS can be carried on the GSM network based on the CN indication
or the configuration on the access network.
 The load in the 2G neighboring cell is lower.
 The difference between the load in the source cell and the load in the target 2G cell
exceeds the configured threshold.

6.1.3 MRFD-211403 MBSC Service Distribution
Availability
Summary
With this feature, the traffic is distributed through the RRC redirection and load-based GSM
and UMTS handover on the basis of the service handover indicator, the network hierarchy
policy, and the load of the 2G and 3G networks when an MS accesses the network. In this
manner, the MSs that request the CS services access the GSM network whereas the MSs that
request PS services access the UMTS network.
Benefits
Based on the internal information exchange mechanism of the MBSC, this feature makes the
network hierarchy clear and the network services specific. Thus, it improves the user
experience by enhancing the services processed by the GSM/UMTS same-coverage network.
Description
This feature provides the traffic distribution function through the network planning. Thus, the
resource usage of each network is increased and the service hierarchy among frequencies and
systems is implemented.
When the 2G cells and 3G cells have the same-coverage area, the CS services are distributed
to the 2G cells and the PS services are distributed to the 3G cells based on the resource

Page 7 of 17
utilization situation and QoS requirements of the subscribers. This service hierarchy policy is
effective for the multi-access network.
The MS can select the network to access based on the service hierarchy and the load of the
networks.
In this manner, the network performance is optimized in the following aspects:
 The tasks of different networks are made clear, which is convenient for the network
capacity dimensioning.
 The service hierarchy reduces the interference between services of different types and
increases the capacity of the 3G network.
 The resource usage is increased, the access failures are decreased, and the QoS
management capability of the network is improved because the services can be flexibly
distributed between the 2G network and the 3G network.
This way of handover from UMTS to GSM is classified into two types: redirection of all CS
services to the 2G cell at the RRC stage, and the GSM and UMTS load-based handover after
the RAB establishment.
Redirection of a proportion of CS services to the 2G cell at the RRC stage: When a R6 or later
protocol release Dual-Mode MS initiates the RRC access request in the 3G cell to process the
CS Speech services , the services are redirected to the 2G cell if the load in the 2G cell in the
same coverage area is light. In this manner, the CS services of the Dual-Mode MS in the 3G
cell are redirected to the 2G cell. Thus, a larger capacity is reserved in the 3G system for the
MSs that process PS services.
The GSM and UMTS load-based handover after the RAB establishment is an enhancement of
the existing handover feature provided by Huawei. With this feature, the handover is
performed on the basis of the handover attributes, PS services rate, and difference between the
load of the 2G system and that of the 3G system after the RAB establishment.
When an MS processes the PS services in a 2G cell, the services are handed over(PS
handover or NC2) to the neighboring 3G cell if the following requirements are met:
 The MS supports the UMTS network.
 "service UTRAN CCO(Cell Change Order)" IE from SGSN is not set to "Network
initiated cell change order to UTRAN or PS handover to UTRAN procedure shall not be
performed"The load in the 3G neighboring cell is light.
When an MS processes the CS services in a 3G cell, the services are handed over to the
neighboring 2G cell if the following requirements are met:
 The MS supports the GSM network.
 The load in the neighboring 2G cell is light.

6.1.4 MRFD-211404 MBSC Handover based on Load Enhancement
Availability
Summary
This feature is based on the internal information exchange mechanism of the MBSC. With
this feature, the non-coverage based handover between the 2G network and the 3G network is
enhanced by the higher judgment accuracy for the handover. In this manner, ping pong
handover between 2G and 3G network caused by wrong judgment reduces.
Benefits
Based on the internal information exchange mechanism of the MBSC, this feature increases
the judgment accuracy for non-coverage based handover. As a result, the load of the GSM
network and the UMTS network in the same coverage area remains even, the ping pong
handover caused by wrong judgment is reduced.
Description
For the load management of the 2G cells and 3G cells, Huawei radio access network solution
currently provides independent load-based inter-RAT handover algorithms. For the GSM
network, the GSM/WCDMA Load Based Handover feature is used. For the UMTS network,
the Inter-RAT Handover Based on Load feature is used. This feature is an enhancement of
these two features based on the internal information exchange mechanism of the MBSC. With
this feature, a more proper target cell can be selected for the inter-RAT handover. In addition,
the probability of the ping-pong handover due to the high load of the inter-RAT neighboring
cell can be minimized if the following requirements are met:
 The inter-RAT neighboring cell with the lowest load is selected.
 The difference between the load in the source cell and the load in the target cell exceeds
the configured threshold.
 The handover does not lead to congestion in the target cell.

Page 9 of 17
This feature also enhances inter RAT handover based on HCS by considering the target cell
load. When there are more than one neighbor cell have the same Hierarchical priority, the
Base Station Controller chooses a target cell that has a lightest cell load for HCS based
handover. If all the target cells have heavy load, the HCS based handover will not be
triggered.

6.2.1 MRFD-211502 IP-Based BSC and RNC Co-Transmission on
MBSC Side
Availability
Summary
When the MBSC is used, the physical ports and transport network can be shared between the
Abis interface and the Iub interface of the MBSC.

Page 10 of 17
When the GSM and UMTS share the CN, the physical ports and transport network can be
shared between the A interface and the Iu-CS interface or between the Gb interface and the
Iu-PS interface of the MBSC.
Benefits
 Reduces the operator's investments on the transport network. During the deployment
phase of the 3G network when the traffic load of the network is low, the transport
network carries mainly the 2G services. After the 3G services are fully developed, the
transport network carries mainly the 3G services.
 Reduces the O&M costs of the transport network. When developing GSM and UMTS
services, the operator need to maintain only one transport network. Thus, the
CAPEX/OPEX is reduced.
 Reduces the investments on the main equipment of the access network. The number of
interface boards is reduced because the logical ports of the 2G network and those of the
3G network share the same transmission board and physical port. In addition, the
capability of the interface boards of the main equipment is fully realized.
Description
Huawei radio equipment supports three types of GSM and UMTS co-transmission on the
MBSC side:
 The Abis interface and Iub interface share the IP transmission.
 The A interface and Iu-CS interface share the IP transmission.
 The Gb interface and Iu-PS interface share the IP transmission.
The IP transmission can be implemented on the basis of the FE/GE and E1/T1 over
STM-1/OC-3 mode (The two modes supported by different interface board). The networking
scenario is shown in the following figure.

IP-based co-transmission between the Abis interface and the Iub interface
The Abis interface and the Iub interface can share the IP/SDH transport network and the
physical transmission ports on the interface board of the MBSC. The co-transmission of the
Abis interface and the Iub interface can be implemented on the basis of the FE/GE or E1/T1
over STM-1/OC-3 mode. After the protocols of the Abis and Iub interfaces are processed on
the interface board of the MBSC, the data of the GSM and UMTS user plane and that of the
GSM and UMTS control plane are distributed to the GSM/UMTS service processing board
and GSM/UMTS signaling processing board.

Page 11 of 17
When the co-transmission of the Abis interface and the Iub interface is implemented on the
basis of the E1/T1 over STM-1/OC-3 mode, the data link layer uses the PPP/MLPPP protocol.
Separate BTSs and NodeBs are distinguished on the MBSC by separate PPP links or MLPPP
groups. For the MBTS, the 2G and 3G data can share a PPP link or MLPPP group. The 2G
service flow is distinguished from the 3G service flow by UDP ports. When congestion occurs
on the shared PPP link or MLPPP group, the congestion handling process is initiated for the
2G and 3G services. For the congestion handling schemes, see MRFD-211503 GSM and
UMTS Co-Transmission Resources Management on MBSC.
When the co-transmission of the Abis interface and the Iub interface is implemented on the
basis of the FE/GE mode, the data link layer uses the Ethernet protocol. The MBSC controls
the flow of each BTS by using the function of logical port shaping. With the logical port
shaping function, several logical ports are defined for one physical port, and one logical port
corresponds to one BTS. The bandwidth of the logical port is configurable to provide
appropriate bandwidth for each BTS. This prevents the situation that multiple BTSs share one
IP transmission bandwidth, which may cause congestion in one BTS and thus affect the
bandwidth of other BTSs. The service flow of the BTS and that of the NodeB correspond to
different logical ports. In the case of the MBTS, the service flow of the 2G network and that of
the 3G network share one logical port. When congestion occurs on the logical ports, the
congestion handling process is initiated for the 2G and 3G services. For the congestion
handling schemes, see MRFD-211503 GSM and UMTS Co-Transmission Resources
Management on MBSC.
When the co-transmission of the Abis interface and Iub interface is implemented, the
transmission efficiency can be improved in combination with the GBFD-118604 Abis MUX
feature and the WRFD-050420 FP MUX for IP Transmission feature.
IP-based co-transmission between the A interface and the Iu-CS interface
The A interface and the Iu-CS interface can share the IP transport network and the physical
transmission ports on the interface board of the MBSC. The co-transmission of the A interface
and the Iu-CS interface can be implemented on the basis of the FE/GE or E1/T1 over
STM-1/OC-3 mode. After the protocols of the A and Iu-CS interfaces are processed on the
interface board of the MBSC, the data of the GSM and UMTS user plane and that of the GSM
and UMTS control plane are distributed to the GSM/UMTS service processing board and
GSM/UMTS signaling processing board. When the A interface and Iu-CS interface share the
same transport network, the transmission efficiency can be improved in combination with the
GBFD-118610 UDP MUX for A Transmission feature and the WRFD-050412 UDP MUX for
Iu-CS Transmission feature.
IP-based co-transmission between the Gb interface and the Iu-PS interface
The Gb interface and the Iu-PS interface can share the IP transport network and the physical
transmission ports on the interface board of the MBSC. The co-transmission of the Gb
interface and the Iu-PS interface can be implemented on the basis of the FE/GE mode. After
the protocols of the Gb and Iu-PS interfaces are processed on the interface board of the
MBSC, the data of the GSM and UMTS user plane and that of the GSM and UMTS control
plane are distributed to the GSM/UMTS service processing board and GSM/UMTS signaling
processing board.
This feature implements the IP-based co-transmission between the MBSC and the router. In
cooperation with MRFD-211501 IP-Based GSM and UMTS Co-Transmission on Base
Station Side, this feature can implement the end-to-end co-transmission.

MBSC
Availability

Page 13 of 17
Summary
When the IP transmission bandwidth is shared by the 2G and 3G services of the MBTS, the IP
transmission resources are managed uniformly on the MBSC.
Benefits
The bandwidth resources are shared by the 2G and 3G services between the MBSC and the
MBTS in resource pool manner. The uniform management of the bandwidth resources
provides the following benefits:
In case of a burst of 2G and 3G services on the MBTS, the required transmission bandwidth
increases abruptly. In such a case, the MBSC performs the control and thus effectively
reduces the possibility of congestion.
For the bandwidth allocated to the 2G and 3G services on the same MBTS, the MBSC uses
appropriate allocation policies to increase the usage of the transmission bandwidth.
Description
When co-transmission of the 2G and 3G services on the MBSC is enabled, the 2G and 3G
services of the MBTS share one logical port if the IP over FE/GE is adopted; the 2G and 3G
services of the MBTS share the PPP link/MLPPP group if the IP over E1/T1 is adopted. When
congestion occurs on the shared logical port or PPP link/MLPPP group, the congestion
handling process is initiated for the 2G and 3G services.
Three thresholds (or stages) are defined in the MBSC to indicate the system congestion
severity, that is, normal access, general congestion, and severe congestion. In each stage, a
specific admission policy is implemented to eliminate the negative effects caused by
transmission congestion..
1、Uniform congestion threshold

When the usage of the transmission resources reaches such an extent that the maximum
admission rate of the uplink and downlink transmission bandwidth cannot be provided, a
uniform congestion threshold is configured for the transmission channel. When the
transmission bandwidth exceeds this threshold, the transmission bandwidth of the new GSM
and UMTS users and accessed users is decreased to use the bandwidth efficiently, admit more
users, and reduce the possibility of admission failure.
When the bandwidth exceeds the threshold, the following load reshuffling (LDR) measures
are taken for the 2G users:
 The bandwidth of the slave link of the PS channel is released.
The HR channel is preferentially allocated for CS users.
Low rate is applied for the AMR speech of CS users.
 The handover from the FR channel to HR channel is performed for CS users.
When the bandwidth exceeds the threshold, the following load reshuffling (LDR) measures
are taken for the 3G users:
The data rate of the background or interactive services is decreased.
The QoS is renegotiated.
The inter-RAT handover is performed.
2、Uniform handover reserved threshold

Page 14 of 17
When the usage of the transmission resources is so high that the call quality of the accessed
users is affected, a uniform handover reserved threshold is configured for the transmission
channel. When the transmission bandwidth exceeds the threshold, the threshold-based
admission of the newly accessed GSM and UMTS user is prohibited. This avoids the situation
that the handover cannot be performed and the call quality of the accessed users is affected
because the transmission resources are exhausted.
When the transmission bandwidth exceeds the threshold and there is bandwidth available for
the transmission, the GSM and UMTS handover users can still perform the threshold-based
admission.
After the threshold-based admission control fails, the 2G user of high priority that applies for
the transmission bandwidth can access the network by pre-empting the bandwidth that is
allocated to the 2G user of low priority. If the pre-emption fails, the network access can be
obtained by queuing of 2G users. The 3G user of high priority that applies for the
transmission bandwidth can access the network by pre-empting the bandwidth allocated to the
3G user of low priority. If the pre-emption fails, the network access can be obtained by
queuing of 3G users.
3、Uniform overload control threshold

The transmission congestion may be caused by the decrease in the available bandwidth
resulting from the deterioration in the congestion condition of the transport network or the
increase in the traffic volume of the actual transmission. To avoid such transmission
congestion, a uniform overload threshold is configured for the transmission channel. When
the transmission bandwidth exceeds the threshold, admission of the new users to the GSM
and UMTS services is prohibited and the services of users with low priority are released. This
ensures that the calls of the accessed users with high priority can be maintained even when
severe congestion occurs and eliminates the impact of the overload.
