2 Overview
Overview
2.1 Introduction
In recent years, GSM packet-switched (PS) services have developed rapidly to supplement
UMTS PS services in terms of wireless coverage. Data traffic is multiplied every year. The
percentage of wireless resources occupied by PS services rapidly increases. However, operators
benefit less from each packet data channel (PDCH) during peak hours. This is because lowthroughput services occupy a large proportion of the services on live networks and the number
of temporary block flows (TBFs) multiplexed on a PDCH cannot reflect the actual PDCH usage.
During a TBF, only data transmission occupies transmission resources on the Um interface even
though data transmission time accounts for only part of a TBF life cycle. For low-throughput
services, data transmission time accounts for a small part of a TBF life cycle. This leads to a low
efficiency for PDCHs to carry TBFs, which wastes channel resources.
The Active TBF Allocation feature enables the BSC to periodically measure the downlink TBF
transmission on PDCHs and directs the BSC to allocate TBFs to PDCHs to balance the loads
between PDCHs. This brings the following benefits:
l
Increases the downlink logical link control (LLC) throughput for GPRS and EGPRS MSs
when the number of activated PDCHs is constant.
Decreases the number of activated PDCHs and improves the efficiency in which PDCHs
carry TBFs, while maintaining the cell throughput and downlink user rate. This reduces
network interference.
2.2 Benefits
The Active TBF Allocation feature applies to areas with hot spots for PS services with the
following characteristics:
l
PS traffic volume is high. For example, the average downlink PDCH multiplexing rate is
3 or higher.
Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) and instant messaging (IM) services account for a
large proportion of PS services, among which IM services account for more than 60%.
These hot spots include colleges, waiting rooms, and shopping malls.

2 Overview
Enabling this feature in the preceding scenarios provides the following benefits:
l
Increases the downlink LLC throughput of GPRS or EGPRS MSs by 10% to 20% when
the number of activated PDCHs remains unchanged. This significantly improves the PS
user rate and user experience.
Decreases the number of activated PDCHs by 10% to 25% and increases the efficiency in
which PDCHs carry TBFs by 10% to 25%, while maintaining the cell throughput and
downlink user rate. This improves the usage of TRX resources, reduces unwanted capacity
expansions, and brings more profits to operators.
Optimizes the PDCH allocation by simultaneously adjusting the PS user rate and the
number of activated PDCHs, for example, increases the PS user rate while decreasing the
number of activated PDCHs.

3 Technical Description
Technical Description
On live GSM networks, the BSC uses the common PDCH allocation algorithm to allocate
PDCHs to MSs and perform dynamic PDCH conversions based on the number of TBFs
multiplexed on PDCHs. In this scenario, the BSC:
l
Preferentially allocates PDCHs or PDCH channel groups that carry a small number of
TBFs.
Triggers a dynamic PDCH conversion when the average number of TBFs on PDCHs
reaches the specified threshold.
The number of TBFs multiplexed on a PDCH cannot reflect the actual PDCH usage. For lowthroughput services, data transmission time is a small part of a TBF life cycle. This leads to a
low PDCH usage.
The BSC uses the active TBF allocation algorithm to calculate the downlink load on each PDCH
in a cell and allocate PDCHs to MSs based on the downlink PDCH load to balance the loads
between PDCHs. This increases the downlink LLC throughput of GPRS or EGPRS MSs and
improves user experience.
Assuming that three PDCHs (P1, P2, and P3) are available. The following table lists the number
of TBFs multiplexed on each of the three PDCHs and the types of services carried by these
TBFs.
Table 3-1 TBFs multiplexed and services carried on PDCHs
Issue 01 (2014-04-30)
PDCH No.
Number of TBFs
Multiplexed on a PDCH
Services Carried by TBFs
P1
Two TBFs carry lowthroughput services, and the

other TBF carries File
Transfer Protocol (FTP)
services.
P2
Both TBFs carry FTP

services.
P3
All TBFs carry lowthroughput services.

GSM BSS
In this example, the differences between the common PDCH allocation algorithm and the active
TBF allocation algorithm in terms of TBF allocation are as follows:
In the common PDCH allocation algorithm, the BSC preferentially allocates P2 to a newly
accessed MS. However, the data transmission rate decreases for the high-throughput FTP
services carried by the TBFs on P2 because the newly accessed PS services occupy TBF
resources on P2.
In the active TBF allocation algorithm, the BSC monitors and measures the data traffic or load
on each PDCH before allocating PDCHs to an MS. The BSC detects that P3 is carrying lowthroughout services while P2 is carrying high-throughput FTP services. Therefore, the BSC
attempts to allocate P3 rather than P2 to the newly accessed MS. In this manner, data traffic of
different services is evenly distributed on PDCHs to achieve conflict-free data transmission.
The BSC implements the Active TBF Allocation feature as follows:
1.
Monitors the downlink data transmission on each PDCH in real time and periodically
measures the downlink load of each PDCH.
2.
Preferentially allocates PDCHs with lighter loads to MSs based on the latest load
information of PDCHs. This balances the loads between PDCHs and improves the downlink
user rate.
To enable the Active TBF Allocation feature, set ACTIVETBFSWITCH

(BSC6900,BSC6910) to ON(On).
You can view the values of the AL9529: Downlink Throughput of GPRS Users LLC PDU or
AL9530: Downlink Throughput of EGPRS Users LLC PDU counter to know the benefits of this
feature on the PS user rate.
To increase the efficiency in which PDCHs carry TBFs, set the following parameters to large
values:
UPDYNCHNTRANLEV(BSC6900,BSC6910) and DWNDYNCHNTRANLEV
(BSC6900,BSC6910)
l
If either of the two parameters is set to a large value, the average number of activated
PDCHs is small. This improves the efficiency in which PDCHs carry TBFs and the gains
in key performance indicators (KPIs) for circuit switched (CS) services. However, if either
is set to a too large value, the performance of PS services may deteriorate and the downlink
PS user rate decreases.
If either of the two parameters is set to a small value, the average number of activated
PDCHs is large. This reduces the efficiency in which PDCHs carry TBFs, decreases the
gains in KPIs for CS services, but increases the user rate and improves user experience.
Therefore, adjust the values of the preceding parameters according to actual network conditions
and operators' requirements.
The interval for reporting PDCH load information can be adjusted by setting
ActiveTBFBuffRptInterval(BSC6900,BSC6910) to an appropriate value. If this parameter is
set to a large value, the interval for reporting PDCH load information becomes longer. As a
result, the active TBF allocation is delayed and therefore the gains brought by the Active TBF
Allocation decreases. If this parameter is set to a small value, the CPU load becomes higher.
Issue 01 (2014-04-30)

GSM BSS
Therefore, you are advised to adjust the value of this parameter according to operators'
requirements.
ActiveTBFPdAdjHyst(BSC6900,BSC6910) specifies the hysteresis level (512-byte in length)
corresponding to the length of the downlink LLC PDU queue on PDCHs and is used to optimize
the Active TBF Allocation feature. During PDCH reassignment, to increase the PS single-user
rate, the BSC allocates TBFs to the target PDCH group only when the sum of the length of the
downlink LLC PDU queue in the target PDCH group and the length of the bytes corresponding
to the configured hysteresis level is less than or equal to the length of the downlink LLC PDU
queue in the original PDCH group.

5 Network Impact
Network Impact
5.1 System Capacity

On the live network, the number of TBFs multiplexed on a PDCH cannot reflect the actual PDCH
usage. For low-throughput services, data transmission time is a small part of a TBF life cycle.
This leads to a low PDCH usage.
The Active TBF Allocation feature directs the BSC to allocate PDCHs to TBFs to balance the
loads between PDCHs. Enabling this feature has the following impacts on system capacity:
l
Increases the downlink LLC throughput of GPRS or EGPRS MSs when the number of
activated PDCHs remains unchanged or decreases.
Increases the efficiency in which PDCHs carry TBFs by decreasing the number of activated
PDCHs, while maintaining the cell throughput and downlink user rate.
5.2 Network Performance

Enabling this feature has the following impacts on network performance:
l
Increases the downlink LLC throughput for GPRS and EGPRS MSs by 10% to 20% when
the number of activated PDCHs remains unchanged or decreases.
Decreases the number of activated PDCHs by 10% to 25% and increases the efficiency in
which PDCHs carry TBFs by 10% to 25%, while maintaining the cell throughput and
downlink user rate. This improves the usage of TRX resources.
Increases the uplink PDCH multiplexing rate and decreases the uplink LLC throughput for
GPRS and EGPRS MSs if the number of PDCHs decreases. This is because this feature
enables the BSC to allocate PDCHs based on only the downlink TBF transmission. To
increase the uplink LLC throughput of GPRS or EGPRS MSs, increase the uplink coding
scheme for transmission during initial access.
Increases the CPU usage on the control plane and the user plane by a maximum of 2.5%
because enabling this feature causes periodic measurements of downlink TBF transmission.
This decreases network capacity.

6 Engineering Guidelines
Engineering Guidelines
6.1 When to Use Active TBF Allocation

The effect of the Active TBF Allocation feature depends on the PS service model, traffic volume,
and parameter settings. It is recommended that this feature be used when both the following
conditions are met:
l
PS traffic volume is high. For example, the average PDCH multiplexing rate is 3 or higher
and the average number of activated PDCHs is greater than 8.
WAP and IM services account for a large proportion of PS services, among which IM
services account for more than 60%.
If either of the preceding conditions is not met, do not enable this feature because the gains will
be negligible.
6.2 Required Information

Before deploying the Active TBF Allocation feature, collect the following information to
evaluate performance gains:
l
Proportion of PDCHs during peak hours
Efficiency in which PDCHs carry TBFs
PDCH multiplexing rate
User rate
Proportion of PS services among all services

6.5 Performance Monitoring

To determine whether network performance needs to be optimized after the Active TBF
Allocation feature is enabled, monitor the counters related to the following aspects:
1.
Downlink LLC throughput for GPRS MSs and downlink LLC throughput for EGPRS MSs
These counters reflect increases in the downlink LLC throughput for GPRS and EGPRS
MSs, respectively.
2.
Average number of occupied PDCHs and the efficiency in which PDCHs carry TBFs
These counters reflect the increase in the efficiency in which PDCHs carry TBFs.
l Efficiency in which PDCHs carry TBFs (during half an hour) = (Total bytes of sent
LLC PDUs x 8)/(1024 x 1800 x Average number of occupied PDCHs)
l Efficiency in which PDCHs carry TBFs (during an hour) = (Total bytes of sent LLC
PDUs x 8)/(1024 x 3600 x Average number of occupied PDCHs)
3.
Percentage of half-rate TCH (TCHH) traffic volume and the downlink High Quality
Indicator (HQI)
These counters reflect the gains in voice quality.
Percentage of TCHH traffic volume = K3034/K3014
Downlink HQI = (CS410B + CS410D + CS411B + CS411D)/(CS410B + CS410D +

CS411B + CS411D + CS412B + CS412D + CS413B + CS413D + CS414B + CS414D +
CS415B + CS415D + CS416B + CS416D + CS417B + CS417D)
The network performance does not need to be optimized if the gains reflected by the preceding
counters are as expected.
6.6 Parameter Optimization

After enabling this feature, adjust the values of the UPDYNCHNTRANLEV and
DWNDYNCHNTRANLEV parameters according to actual network conditions and operators'
requirements to achieve optimum network performance.
l
If either of the two parameters is set to a large value, the average number of activated
PDCHs is small. This improves the efficiency in which PDCHs carry TBFs and the gains
in KPIs for CS services but may deteriorate the performance of PS services.
