1 Introduction

1.1 Parameter ClassificationThe GSM and GPRS parameters are classified into three categories:

Network : Customer Design Engineering parameters also called network

parameters. A CDE Parameter can be specific for a customer and isvalid for the complete network. There are BSC, BTS, MFS and OMC

CDE parameters.

Site : Customer Application Engineering parameter also called siteparameter. The Value of a CAE parameter is different from an instance to

another and changeable from some way (most often them from the OMC).The parameter can be instantiated per BSC, MFS, cell, TRX...

System : ConStanT Parameter also called system parameters. They can

not or shall not be modified. Most of them are hard coded in the systemor defined in configuration files.

1.2 Parameter DescriptionTo each parameter are associated the following characteristics:

Logical Parameter Name : Mnemonic conventionally used in Alcatel

documentation.

Definition : definition/purpose of the parameter.

Coding rules :, Rules of coding, when necessary.

Mandatory rules : Mandatory relationships or inter-dependence of some

data.

Recommended rules : Recommended relationships or inter-dependenceof some data.

Feature : Indicates to which feature the parameter is linked.

Category : Category into which the parameter is classified.

Instance : Possible instance of the parameter.

Value

Min/Max values : Possible range of the parameter values.

Default value : Parameter value in release B7.1 for a genericconfiguration.

Modifiable : Indicates if the parameter is modifiable at the OMC-R.

Parameter Access : Indicates where the parameter is accessible at the

OMC-R.

External Comments : Specific information, when necessary, relatedto the parameter.

Alcatel Dyn SDCCH channelParameter Name

Logical Name Dyn-SDCCH-Channel

Definition This parameter gives the number of dynamic SDCCH sub-channelsconfigured in the cell at PRC level.

Coding rules Due to the Multiple CCCH feature, the max value of this parameteris: 80 when only one CCCH is present in the cell and 168 when 2CCCH are present in the cell (i.e. one timeslot configured with BCCand one timeslot configured with CCH).

Mandatory rules Dyn-SDCCH-Channel + SDCCH-channel <= 88 when one CCCH ispresent in the cell and Dyn-SDCCH-Channel + SDCCH-channel <=176 when 2 CCCH are present in the cell.

Recommended rules When AbisTransportMode(MFS) is IP, the number of SDCCHsub-channels on a non-BCCH TRX should not exceed 16. The OMCchecks it by raising a non-blocking warning.

External Comment Transcoder MT120 module comprises 12 DSP. A interface channels[to be transcoded] can be distributed on 12 DSP or on 11 DSP. Whendistributed on 11 DSP, the 12th DSP is managed as a spare and isused to recover the failure of another one. The recommended settingis 0, it corresponds to the distribution on 11 DSP, thus allowing faulttolerance in the TC. This advice is valid whatever the presence /ratioof Half Rate calls in the BSC. NB: Name of the parameter comesfrom early deliveries of the MT120, when transcoding HR channelswas expected to require more processing capacity, thus leading todistribute the channels on the 12 DSP.

7.1.3 (Effective Modulation Delta Power) -(Effective-Modulation-Delta-Power)

Alcatel Effective Modulation Delta PowerParameter Name

Logical Name Effective-Modulation-Delta-Power

Definition This parameter gives the difference between maximum effectiveGMSK output power (per sector and per band) lessen with theBS_TXPWR_MAX value, the effect of cell shared alignment; and themaximum 8Psk output power of the TRE.

Coding rules coded in tenth of dB. At operator level, the parameter is displayedwith an accuracy of 0.1 dB. Example: 2.3 dB coded 23. In case ofnon 8Psk capable TRE, Effective-Modulation-Delta-Power is notcomputed.

Mandatory rules The OMC computes this parameter as follows [in termsof coded values]: If the TRE is in the main sector:Effective-Modulation-Delta-Power = max (0, (Modulation-Delta-Power20* BS_TXPWR_MAX)) If the TRE is in the secondary sector:Effective-Modulation-Delta-Power = max (0, (Modulation-Delta-Powermax (0, 10*(Max-Power-Per-Sector-<band>secondary -Max-Power-Per-Sector-<band>primary + 2* BS_TXPWR_MAX))))Notes: <band> is GSM or DCS; 10 and 20 factors are necessarybecause on one hand Modulation-Delta-Power is expressed in 1/10dB and the other parameters are expressed in dBm, and on the otherhand BS_TXPWR_MAX is coded by 2 dB steps. This parameter isonly valid for outer TRE

External Comment This parameter is displayed by the OMC in the Cell HSDS SynthesisView (with HMI name=Effective Modulation Delta Power). Thisparameter does not take care of PWR_adjustment although theEffective-Modulation-Delta-Power is decreased by the adjustment(value of PWR_adjustment). Attenuation applies on GMSK power,reducing de facto the Effective-Modulation-Delta-Power. If it cannotbe computed because the TRE is not 8PSK capable, then OMCdisplays not available.—
