2.5 GSM/UMST Network Overview

The BTS is the Base Transceiver Station within a GSM Network & supports the GSM Cells,

normally between 3 & 6 Cells.

The BTS & the BSC are forming the Base Station Subsystem (BSS) / GERAN which is

connected to the Network Subsystem (Core Network). The core network provides the

connection to switching centre and the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN)

The NodeB is the Basestation within an UMTS Network & supports the UMTS Cells,

normally between 3 & 6 Cells.

The NodeB & the RNC are forming the UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access Network (UTRAN)

which is connected to the Core Network (CN). The core network provides the connection to

switching centre and the Internet. UTRAN + CN is the Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN)

6. Onsite SWAP Activities

6.1 Check Transmission Status of BTS/GSM

Maximum 4 E1 s can be connected to the GTMU Board and therefore the GTMU has 4 LEDs

(LIU0-LIU3) for each E1 on the right upper corner which are either ON or OFF.

ON means -> NO TRANSMISSION

OFF means -> TRANSMISSION OK

In case more than 4 E1s need to be connected an additional board (UTRP) needs to be

inserted to the BBU.

6.2 Check Software Status of BTS/GSM

In case the BTS software needs to be verified , you need to use the Site Maintenance Terminal

(SMT) .

a)Change the IP settings of the Laptop to 192.168.0.220 with Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0

Please ask the RIC for the BCCH&Primary Scrambling Code(PSC)/Sector and the

Azimuths for the GSM900/1800 & UMTS2100.

In order to avoid crossed feeders partner needs to check the BCCH&PSC/Azimuth

against the site build and the azimuth values from the sitesheet. If something is different

please inform the RIC immediately.Please use a compass or GPS device, identify the azimuth of each sector and conduct a

static testcall in each sector roughly 50-100meters away from the site and confirm :

-Sector orientation is correct

-Correct BCCH/PSC is radiating from the correct Cell

-All Feeders are correctly installed and labeled

Always inform the RIC if something is not clear.

6.8 Facc Documentation

Please have a look at the example of an FAcc document. You only need to fill out the

technology that you have swapped/installed on the site. For example if you only swap GSM

900 and GSM 1800, then you only need to fill out the parts where GSM 900 &1800 is

mentioned as well as the common parts. For already existing technologies like LTE , you do

not need to fill out anything.

6.9 Deinstallation

Not 100% clarified yet, still under discussion with VDF but probably a higher percent of sites

need to be disassembled and the hardware needs to be returned to VDF.

6.10 Leaving the Site via Naview

For example you want to leave the site MXB007,so you have to sent an SMS to +49-172-

5289612 with the following text:

naview l mxb007

Now you have to wait for the answer. The successful message should be:

Abmeldung OKIf you write naview l mxb007 d , you will get the info which alarms are active if the

successful message does not come.

If you do not get a successful message please call the VDF NMC: +49-211-5337401

You also need to lock out of the Naview system after leaving the site by sending an SMS to

+49-172-5289612 with the following text:

naview ld

Now you have to wait for the answer. The successful message should be:

Abmeldung vom Dienst erfolgreich

Under certain circumstances if you enter a site somewhere in the afternoon/evening and you

do not lock out of the system, it can happen that you might be blocked to enter another site on

the next day. Therefore it is mandatory to do the lockout every day.
