Parameter Description
1
SDCCH Dynamic Allocation Enabled
Parameter Name SDCCH Dynamic Allocation Enabled
Description This parameter specifies whether the SDCCH dynamic allocation is allowed.
When the number of GSM subscribers in a cell increases rapidly, many
subscribers may fail to access the network due to insufficient SDCCH
resources. In this case, the TCHs (including TCH and dynamic PDCH that
acts as TCH) must be converted into SDCCHs to ensure the access of most
subscribers. The SDCCH dynamic adjustment can increase the system
capacity.

BSC Feature SDCCH Dynamic Adjustment
Parameter Class Parameters About Radio Resources
Caution The SDCCH dynamic adjustment converts the TCHs to the SDCCHs,2this
reduces the available TCHs and decreases the TCH traffic bearing capability.
Idle SDCCH Threshold N1
Parameter Name Idle SDCCH Threshold N1
Description If the number of idle SDCCHs in the cell is smaller than or equal to the value
of this parameter, the BSC tries to find a TCHF that can be converted to the
SDCCH.
This parameter specifies one of the conditions for converting the TCHF to the
SDCCH.
Besides this parameter, the other three conditions for initiating the conversion
from TCHFs to SDCCHs are as follows:
1.The cell allows the SDCCH dynamic adjustment.
2.(Number of idle TCHFs + number of idle TCHHs/2) 4 or the number of
TRXs in the cell, and the cell must have at least one idle TCHF.
3.The sum of the number of SDCCHs in the cell plus eight is smaller than the
maximum number of SDCCHs allowed in the cell.
GUI Value Range [0,63]
Default Value 2
Unit Number of channels
Step -
Configuration Policy If this parameter is set too large and consequently there is a small number of
requests for SDCCHs, the SDCCHs of a cell are in idle state;
If this parameter is set too small and consequently there is a large number of
requests for SDCCHs, the requests cannot meet the requirements.
Recommended Value 2

3
Caution None
Cell SDCCH Channel Maximum
Parameter Name Cell SDCCH Channel Maximum
Description When the BSC determines whether to initiate the conversion from the TCH to
the SDCCH, it needs to determine whether the number of SDCCHs after the
conversion exceeds the Cell SDCCH Channel Maximum. If the number of
SDCCHs exceeds the value of this parameter, the BSC does not initiate the
conversion.
Default Value 80
Unit None
Step -
Configuration Policy If this parameter is set too small, the SDCCHs in the cell may be insufficient
and the dynamic adjustment cannot be initiated, thus affecting the access of
users. It is meaningless to set the parameter too large.
Recommended Value 80

Caution None
TCH Minimum Recovery Time(s)
Parameter Name TCH Minimum Recovery Time(s)
Description This parameter specifies the minimum time for the recovery of a TCH from an
SDCCH.
The processing for the SDCCH recovered to the TCH is as follows: each cell
is configured with a counter. Each time the TCH is converted to the SDCCH,
the counter is set to ResTime. The value of the counter is adjusted every three
seconds. If the number of idle SDCCHs > 8 + N1, the counter descreases by
3; if the number of idle SDCCHs < 8 + Idle SDCCH Threshold N1, the counter
increases by 12 within the setting value; if the number of idle SDCCHs = 8 +
N1, the counter remains unchanged. If the value of the counter is equal to or
lower than 0 after adjustment, the SDCCH is converted to the TCH.
Default Value 60
Unit Seconds
Step -
Configuration Policy If this parameter is set too small, it cannot correctly indicate the idle state of
the current SDCCHs and consequently the rollback of SDCCHs immediately
triggers adjustment and affects the network performance.
If this parameter is set too large, the channel allocation algorithm becomes
less sensitive and consequently the SDCCHs stay in idle state and cannot be
rolled back for a long period of time.

Update Period of CH Record(min)
Parameter Name Update Period of CH Record(min)
Description When the Update Period of CH Record expires, the process of updating the
history record of channel occupancy is started. That is, the history priority of
each channel is reduced by Update Freq.of CH Record at the interval of the
setting value of this parameter to increase the channel priority.
Principles of taking values are as follows:
Generally, a high-frequency adjustment is used. For example, the update
period should be set in such a way that it ranges from half an hour to one hour
because several busy hours are the major concerns during the actual
operation in a day. If the parameter is set to a too small value, the result of the
history record is meaningless. If the parameter is set to a too great value, the
result cannot be seen in time during busy hours.
If a fixed interference source exists or an equipment fault occurs, the update
period for the affected cells can be set in such a way that it ranges from
several hours to one day.
This parameter is used together with Update Freq. of CH Record so that the
channel can be assigned even if the history record priority decreases.
Default Value 30
Unit Minutes
Step -

20
Caution None
Update Freq.of CH Record
Parameter Name Update Freq.of CH Record
Description The updating of the history record starts when the Update Period
of CH Record times out. Update Freq of CH Record is subtracted
from the history priority of each channel to improve the priority of
the channel.
Principles of taking values are as follows:
Generally, set this parameter to 2.
If a fixed interference source exists or an equipment fault occurs,
the update frequency for the affected cells can be set to 4 or 6.
The Update Period of CH Record is used together with Update
Freq of CH Record, In this way, the channel can be assigned
even if the channel priority is continuously lowered within a
period of time.

Reserved Channel Number
Parameter Name Reserved Channel Number
Description This parameter specifies the number of channels reserved for subscribers with
high priority.
During the channel assignment, the total number of channels seized by
subscribers with high priority and the idle channels reserved for the high-
priority subscriber must be equal to or greater than the number of channels
reserved for subscribers with high priority. When the subscriber priority is
lower than the Highest Priority, the system will check whether the condition of
the previous inequation is met. If yes, the normal channel assignment for the
call proceeds. Otherwise, the TCHF is not assigned.
By default, this parameter is set to 0, which means the reservation of
resources is prohibited.
Default Value 0
Unit None
Step -
Configuration Policy If this parameter is set to a higher value, that is, too many channels are
reserved for the subscribers with high priority, the lower priority subscribers
may not be able to access the network. If this parameter is set to a lower
value, insufficient channels may be reserved for the subscribers with high
priority.
Recommended Value 0
Caution None
Enhanced TCH Adjust Allowed
Parameter Name Enhanced TCH Adjust Allowed
Description This parameter specifies whether the combination of two half-
rate TCHs into one full-rate TCH is allowed in a cell.
If this parameter is set to No, the forced handover and call delay
caused by timeslot arrangement can be avoided, but there
may cause some TCHF-only calls to fail because the
timeslot arrangement is unavailable.
If this parameter is set to Yes, calls may fail when the timeslot
arrangement fails and when the MS does not select the
TCHF in the concentric cell.

Default Value Yes
Unit None
Step -
Configuration Policy Huawei recommends that the parameter Enhanced TCH Adjust

Busy Threshold of TCH Traffic in Overlaid Subcell
Parameter Name Busy Threshold of TCH Traffic in Overlaid Subcell
Description The BSC assigns channels in the overlaid subcell to the MS in a concentric
cell. If the channel seizure ratio of overlaid subcell is greater than the
value of this parameter, half-rate channels are assigned. Otherwise, full-
rate channels are assigned.
Channel seizure ratio = (Num. of busy TCHF + Num. of busy TCHH/2)/ (Num.
of available TCHF + Num. of available TCHH /2) x 100%.
This parameter is valid for the concentric cell. When the Allow Rate Selection
Based on Overlaid/Underlaid Subcell Load is set to Yes, the TCH Traffic
Busy Threshold (%) is invalid for the concentric cell.
Default Value 50
Unit %
Step -
Configuration Policy If this parameter is set to a higher value, the half-rate channels are assigned
to the MS only when the channel seizure ratio of overlaid subcell is very
high. Insufficient half-rate channels can be assigned to the MS. Thus,
the capacity of the BSC is reduced.
If this parameter is set to a lower value, the half-rate channels are assigned to
the MS only when the channel seizure ratio of overlaid subcell is very
low. The calls use the half-rate channel even if there are enough full-
rate channels, which influences the speech quality.

Multi-Density Trx Power Sharing
Parameter Name Multi-Density Trx Power Sharing
Description This parameter specifies the following definitions:

1. The QTRU power sharing algorithm is disabled.
2. Static power sharing algorithm.
3. Dynamic power sharing algorithm.
The difference between static power sharing algorithm and dynamic power
sharing algorithm is that the dynamic power sharing algorithm uses the
MCPA power sharing technology, the static power specification is
different from dynamic power specification. When there are several
carriers, the maximum output power of single carrier in dynamic power
specification is greater.
In the network swapping, the static/dynamic power on the top of cabinet needs
to compare with the competitor power on the top of cabinet. If the static
power on the top of cabinet competitor power on the top of cabinet,
the static power sharing algorithm is used; if the dynamic power on the
top of cabinet competitor power on the top of cabinet static power on
the top of cabinet, the dynamic power sharing algorithm is used.

when the remaining power of QTRU board is less
than the call required power of cell,
If this switch is set to Yes, this is allowed to assign the
channel; otherwise, this is not allowed to assign the
channel.
Default Value YES
Unit None

determine whether the remaining QTRU power is
insufficient or not.
GSM900 Band Traffic Load Share Threshold
Parameter Name GSM900 Band Traffic Load Share Threshold
Description This parameter specifies: for the channel assignment, suppose

the MS supports multiple sub frequency bands of the 900
MHz frequency band. The BSC ignores the priority of P-
GSM/E-GSM/R-GSM sub frequency bands if the cell load is
smaller than and equal to this threshold. The BSC assigns
channels on the TRXs with priority of R-GSM, E-GSM, P-
GSM frequency bands if the cell load is greater than this
threshold. That is, the BSC preferentially assigns channels
on the R-GSM TRXs if the MS supports P-GSM/E-GSM/R-
GSM sub frequency bands and the cell is configured with
TRXs operating on the P-GSM/E-GSM/R-GSM sub
frequency bands.
Default Value 25
Unit None

Different band SDCCH using optimize
Parameter Name Different band SDCCH using optimize
Description This parameter specifies whether to allow the
MS to report the class mark. If the MS
occupies the main-BCCH intra-frequency
SDCCH, this parameter determines whether
to hand over the MS to the main-BCCH
inter-frequency SDCCH. If this parameter is
set to ON, the signaling channel handover
increases but the call access rate
decreases.
Default Value No
Unit None
Step -
BSC Feature None 54

Power Priority Allowed
Parameter Name Power Priority Allowed
Description This parameter specifies whether to enable
the power-saving TRXs. If this
parameter is set to Yes, the power-
saving TRXs are preferentially enabled.
Default Value No
Unit None

Caution None
Factory Mode
Parameter Name Factory Mode
Description This parameter specifies whether to enable or disable
the factory mode channel assignment algorithm. If
this parameter is set to ON, the BSC evenly
assigns channels to the TRXs in a cell. Generally,
at the initial stage of site deployment, each TRX is
evenly assigned channels. You need to check the
connection cable between TRX and RF with no
need to perform a dialing test on site. After the
initial stage or in other scenarios, it is
recommended that this parameter be set to OFF.
GUI Value Range [OFF,ON]
Default Value OFF

Level Thresh. for Assigning Main BCCH Carrier Channel Under
TIGHT BCCH
Parameter Name Level Thresh. for Assigning Main BCCH Carrier Channel Under TIGHT BCCH
Description During channel assignment, if the TightBcch algorithm is enabled, the

assignment of channels on the main-BCCH TRXs depends on the uplink
receive level, quality, and non-main-BCCH load.
With TightBcch algorithm enabled, the TCHs are preferentially assigned on
the main-BCCH TRXs if the following conditions are met:
1. The uplink receive level after filtering is higher than Level Thresh. for
Assigning Main BCCH Carrier Channel Under TIGHT BCCH.
2. The uplink receive quality level after filtering is lower than Quality Thresh.
for Assigning Main BCCH Carrier Channel Under TIGHT BCCH.
3. The non-main-BCCH load is higher than Intracell Non Main BCCH Load
Threshold of TIGHT BCCH.
Default Value 30
Unit None

Description During channel assignment, if the TightBcch algorithm is enabled,
the assignment of channels on the main-BCCH TRXs
depends on the uplink receive level, quality, and non-main-
BCCH load.
With TightBcch algorithm enabled, the TCHs are preferentially
assigned on the main-BCCH TRXs if the following conditions
are met:
1. The uplink receive level after filtering is higher than Level
Thresh. for Assigning Main BCCH Carrier Channel Under
TIGHT BCCH.
2. The uplink receive quality level after filtering is lower than
Quality Thresh. for Assigning Main BCCH Carrier Channel
Under TIGHT BCCH.
3. The non-main-BCCH load is higher than Intracell Non Main
BCCH Load Threshold of TIGHT BCCH.

Offset of the difference between uplink received levels(dBm)
Parameter Name Offset of the difference between uplink received levels(dBm)
Description This parameter specifies the offset of uplink signal strength
difference during TCH assignment.

Default Value 10
Unit dBm
Step -
Configuration Policy 1. If in the current receive carrier group exists a timeslot where
the uplink receive level of the existing MS - estimated
receive level of the call >= uplink signal strength difference
reported by the BTS + offset of uplink signal strength
difference, the channels in this timeslot should be filtered
out.
2. If in the current receive carrier group exists a timeslot where
the uplink receive level of two MSs >= uplink signal strength
difference reported by the BTS + offset of uplink signal
strength difference, the MS whose uplink receive level is
weaker should be forcibly handed over.
