To Start
The amount of idle full rate traffic channels is examined every Cell Load Sharing
time interval for each cell that is activated for Cell Load Sharing. The time
interval is given by a BSC exchange property CLSTIMEINTERVAL .
The following criterion then defines when Cell Load Sharing evaluations are
performed in a cell where the feature is enabled:
If the number of idle full rate traffic channels is equal to or below parameter
CLSLEVEL (the parameter value is given as the percentage of all idle full
rate traffic channels in the cell) in a cell, that cell tries to rid itself of some
traffic by initiating Cell Load Sharing handovers to neighbouring cells.
When the result of the Cell Load Sharing evaluations in a cell indicates that a
Cell Load Sharing
Cell Load Sharing Algorithm
connection should be moved to a neighbouring cell, the traffic load in the target
cell is examined. To accept an incoming handover due to Cell Load Sharing the
cell must both indicate that it accepts incoming Cell Load Sharing handovers
according to the HOCLSACC parameter and have a low enough traffic level.
The following criterion for the traffic level in a target cell is relevant:
If the number of idle full rate traffic channels is above the value of parameter
CLSACC (given as a percentage) in a cell, that cell will accept incoming
Cell Load Sharing handovers from other cells.
Note that the amount of idle traffic channels is counted as if only full-rate
channels exist. This means that if one of a pair of half-rate channels in a
dual rate channel is busy, and the other is idle, the entire dual-rate channel is
counted as busy. However, both connections using a full rate channel and a
half rate channel respectively can be selected for load sharing handovers.
Cell Load Sharing evaluations are not performed at all for channels in
multislot configurations. Also, the E-GSM band channels can be included in
the Cell Load Sharing evaluation by turning on the BSC exchange property
EBANDINCLUDED
Conditions for the Neighbouring Cell:
the neighbouring cell must belong to the same BSC as the serving cell
The neighbouring cell must belong to the same hierarchical layer as the serving cell
Incoming Cell Load Sharing handover must be allowed (parameter HOCLSACC ) for the neighbouring cell. Note that Cell load Sharing
can still be set to inactive in the neighbouring cell if Cell Load Sharing
evaluations in that cell are to be avoided.

Figure:
Point 1 is decided by SSDESDL & QDESDL
For Plane 3 QCOMPDL sets the angle along the QDESDL value and LCOMPDL along the SSDESDL. Higher the value more steep the gradient.
The angles of plane 2 towards the two dimensional (RxLevel vs Quality) plane are constant
Positions of Plane 2 and 3 are decided by SSDESDL and QDESDL, or SSDESDLAFR and QDESDLAFR, orSSDESDLAHR and QDESDLAHR
Filter has a trasnfer function H(k) = (1-a).a^k u(k)
where u(k) is a step function
L is the length of the filter which is chosen as follows:
For quality If Q_COMP(k) < QFILTERED(k-1) then L=QLENDL else L=QLENDL*UPDOWNRATIO/100
For signal strength if SS_COMP(k) < SSFILTERED(k-1) then L=SSLENDL else L=SSLENDL*UPDOWNRATIO/100
The response time for down regulation is determined by the expressions
QLENDL *UPDWNRATIO /100 and SSLENDL *UPDWNRATIO /100 where
To Start
1) Preparation of Input Data
Compensation for Freq. Hopping
SSTCH=SSM-(BSPWR-BSTXPWR+2*PLused)/Nf
Where, SSTCH is the signal strength on the down regulated TCH carrier
SSM is the measured signal strength reported by the MS
BSPWR,BSTXPWR is the BTS output power on the BCCH
frequency and TCH frequency respectively.
Nf is the number of frequencies in the hopping frequency set
All signal strength measurements are compensated before the filtering. SSTCH is also compensated for power control according to the equation given below,
SS_COMP = SSTCH + 2*PLused
where SS_COMP is the signal strength compensated for both down regulation
and frequency hopping
2) Filtering of Measurements
SSFILTERED(k) = b*SS_COMP(k) + a*SSFILTERED(k-1)
if SS_COMP(k) < SSFILTERED (k-1)
then L = SSLENDL
else L = SSLENDL * UPDWNRATIO / 100
BTS Power Control Algorithm
3) Calculation of Power Order
pui = i * (SSDESDL - SSFILTERED ) + i * (QDESDL_dB - QFILTERED )
i = 1, 2
where,1 = LCOMPDL / 100 (pathloss compensation)
1 = QCOMPDL / 100 (quality compensation)
2 = 0.3 (pathloss compensation)
2 = 0.4 (quality compensation)
pu = max(pu1 ,pu2 )
PLused = Int(-pu/2 )
where, PLused is the power level. PLused = 0 represents full power and PLused =15 represents 30 dB down regulation.
BTS_outputpower(k) = BSPWR - 2*PLused in dBm

To Start
When a channel is available for channel allocation (deblocked), the BSC puts
the channel in the interference band 1 (which represents the lowest measured
interference)
At normal release, the channel is placed in the same interference band that
it was taken from at channel allocation. At abnormal release however, e.g.
a dropped call, the channel is placed in the interference band immediately
above the one from which it was taken, that is in a band representing a higher
interference.
When a half rate channel is released and its related half rate channel is idle,
the channel that is released is placed in the same interference band as its
related channel. This is done regardless of whether the release was normal
or abnormal
INTAVE may change the BSC CP load. If INTAVE is
set to a low value, less measurements are used when calculating the average.
This may lead to more fluctuations in the interference measurement. These
Idle Channel Measurements
Idle Channel Measurements Algorithm
fluctuations will lead to an increased number of changes of interference band
and hence a higher BSC CP load. Increasing INTAVE will lead to a more stable
interference measurement and therefor less changes of interference band and
will reduce the number of reports sent to the BSC.

Cells that have channel availabilities below HCSIN will be removed from HCS ranking and moved to basic ranking instead
Serving Cells channel availability is also checked against HCSOUT and if greater than this it is considered to be taking too little traffic so it is decided to not allow handovers out due to HCS from the cell
HCSIN & HCSOUT work only with internal cells

Command Description
RLLHP:CELL={cell}; Defines which layer the cell belongs, i.e. the priority of the cell. Layer 1 has the highest priority
RLLHP:CELL={cell}; Signal strength hysteresis for the layer threshold
RLLHP:CELL={cell}; Signal strength threshold used to rank cells in different layers within each band.
RLLHP:CELL={cell}; HCS traffic distribution level threshold to allow HCS handover into a cell. HCS handover into an internal neighbour cell is allowed when the channel availability of the neighbour cell is above or equal to its HCSIN threshold. When the default value for HCSIN (0%) is used it is always allowed to perform HCS handover into the cell.
RLLHP:CELL={cell}; HCS traffic distribution level threshold to allow HCS handover out from a cell. HCS handover out from the serving cell is allowed when the channel availability of the serving cell is below or equal to its HCSOUT threshold. When the default value for HCSOUT (100%) is used it is always allowed to perform HCS handover out from the cell.
RLLHP:CELL={cell}; Temporary signal strength penalty. Used to prevent many of the fast moving mobiles from accessing lower layer cells

Description
Determines the time between the HANDOVER COMMAND and HANDOVER COMPLETE messages in the MSC at intra-MSC inter-BSC handover
Defines the release of the original channel after expiration of the handover time supervision timer TIMHNDCMDINTRAM at intra-MSC inter-BSC handover. 0 Handover is terminated and the call continues on the original channel. 1 The original channel is released
Time supervision of the switching moment of the group switch (GS) in the MSC at intra-MSC inter-BSC handover. The timer is started at sending of the HANDOVER COMMAND message. The path in the GS will be changed at the first occurrence of one of the following events: Timer expiry. Reception of HANDOVER DETECTED from target BSC. Reception of HANDOVER COMPLETE from target BSC
Determines whether inter-MSC handover and inter-MSC assignment are allowed before answer from B-subscriber (= 1) or not (= 0)
Determines whether inter-MSC/intra-MSC inter-BSC handover is allowed from a signalling to a traffic channel (= 1) or not (= 0). The inter-MSC case is allowed if MAP version 2 is used (HOMAPVERSION = 2) and if HNDBEFOREBANSWM is set to 1
Determines whether intra-MSC inter-BSC handover is allowed on a signalling channel (= 1) or not (= 0)
Determines whether an outgoing inter-MSC handover on a signalling channel in an anchor MSC is allowed (= 1) or not (= 0).
Determines whether incoming an inter-MSC handover on signalling channels in non-anchor MSC is allowed (= 1) or not (= 0). The parameter is only valid if the inter-MSC handover dialogue has been established with MAP version 2 by the anchor MSC

BSPWRT - - Maxpwr+4 dBm RLCPP:CELL={cell}; To enable TCC, BSPWRT is set 4 dB higher than maximum possible output power of this TRX.
Maximum possible output power of the TRX (Maxpwr) is the maximum power without any combiner connected.
Transmitter Coherent Combing (TCC) increases the maximum output power of a RBS 21yx/22yx (y=0, x6 |
y1,any x), except RBS 2109, with an additional 2.5 dB compared to the output power from each of the TRXs
in a dTRU when the internal hybrid combiner is not used. Compared to a configuration where the internal
hybrid combiner is used, the increase is 6 dB.
SWPB Requires two transmitting antennas. SW Power Boost (SWPB) increases the transmitted power by 3
dB compared to the output from each TRX. This is achieved by using two transmitters of a dTRU (RBS
21yx/22yx (y=0, x6 | y1,any x)), two cTRUs or two sTRUs (RBS 210x/220x (x3)) or two TRXs connected
to separate antennas (RBS 230x (any x)) to implement one carrier by sending identical bursts on the same
frequency with equal amplitude on separate transmit antennas.
