Foreword
Radio resource management (RR) is an important protocol in the
GSM system.
The channel management and load control is a part of the GPRS

resource management.
The appropriate channel management and load control algorithm can

improve the PS assignment success rate, decrease the congestion
ratio, provide proper service resources for subscribers, and improve
the network service quality.
This document describes the specific algorithms and parameters of

the GPRS/EDGE channel management and load control.

Basic Concepts of PS Resource
PDCH types -by configuration mode
Static channel: fixedly unconvertible in the case of using by PS service
Dynamic channel: all TCHF are default as dynamic PDCH.
PDCH types -by PS service bearer capability

GPRS channel: applies to only GPRS services
EGPRS normal channel: applies to both GPRS and EGPRS services
EGPRS priority channel: preferentially applies to EGPRS services
EGPRS special channel: applies to only EGPRS service

Obtaining theConvertible Dynamic Channel
Select the timeslot where the initial configuration is set to TCHF
It is not allowed to adjust the timeslot when the initial configuration is set t
TCHH.
Consider the value of PDCH Reforming
When the value is set to Not allow, select only the idle TCHF or the timeslot
where two TCHHs of the same timeslot are idle.
When the value is set to Allow, all timeslots of the TCH type can be selected,
regardless of whether the TCHH or TCHF of this timeslot is occupied.
If an independent GPRS request triggers the dynamic conversion, the EGPRS

special channel is not selected. If an independent EGPRS request triggers the
dynamic channel conversion, the GPRS channel is not selected.
When multiple dynamic channels are selected for the conversion, the
conversion is performed according to the sequence of the timeslot numbers 6, 5
7, 4, 3, 2, 1, and 0.
