Introduction
The Nortel GSM BSS Parameter Reference is a guide that describes all GSM BSS network element parameters that the user can access using the OMC-R.
ATTENTION
For a BSC 3000, there are no class 1 parameters; all these parameters are now class 0. For a BSC 12000HC, the class 1 parameters have not changed.

Chapter 1 Introduction
1.1 Network conguration objects and their parameters
This dictionary summarizes all the GSM BSS parameters used to define all the objects managed on the OMC-R. An object model is used to describe each managed network element. Each object is defined in terms of its parameters (also called attributes), and its relationships with other objects. A containment tree is used to depict the relationships among these objects (see Figure 1 "Object main tree structure" (page 43) to Figure 4 "Network subtree objects" (page 45)). For more information on objects and parameters, refer to NTP < 07 >, for parameters listed per object, refer to NTP < 128 >.
ATTENTION
For a BSC 3000, there are no more class 1 parameters; all these parameters are now class 0. For a BSC 12000HC, the class 1 parameters have not changed. Figure 1 Object main tree structure

Users can create, modify, and delete objects using commands and actions displayed in the menus of the OMC-R Browser window (see Figure 9 "Menus in the OMC-R browser window" (page 48)). Parameters are widely used in all commands and actions. For more information on commands, refer to NTPs < 128 > to < 130 >.

For CT2000 and datafill purposes, the following remarks must be taken into consideration:
If not indicated, the parameters are considered mandatory in all cases. For example, if a parameter is marked as Not Mandatory at the OMC-R level, the user does not need to employ it in CT2000, there will not be any value in the command files to create the associated object. A parameter is dependant of an OMC feature only when indicated. For any parameter associated with an OMC feature, if the feature is

49
active at OMC-R then the parameter is mandatory at object creation otherwise it is not. Example: a parameter marked as "cell Tiering" dependant will only be used when the cellTiering feature is active at the OMC-R level.
A parameter is considered product-dependant only when indicated and to be used only when the product is used in the network. For example, a parameter marked "BSC 3000" dependant is mandatory when the object to create/modify belongs to the "BSC 3000" architecture. CT2000 is an offline, multi-release CM OAM tool. The CT2000 V3 phased with BSS V15 can also configure sub-BSS releases V14.2 and V14.3. Throughout this document, the user will be able to distinguish whether a parameter present in CT2000 DRF interface needs to be filled or not, depending upon the actual network configuration.

The attribute is undefined when the radio time slot is authorized to hop or its channelType is "mainBCCH", "mainBCCHC ombined", or "bcchSdcch4CBCH". The attribute is defined when the radio time slot is not authorized to hop and its channelType is "tCHFull", "sDCCH", "sdcch8CBCH", or "cCH". When defined, the frequency is one of those allotted to the parent bts object (cellAllocation list). Concentric cell: When defined, the frequency is not used by the channel objects related to the transceiver objects allotted to the other cell zone. If the frequency hopping is not used, the absoluteRFChannelNo attribute indicates a radio frequency number which is located between [0 to 124] or [955 to 1023] when the standardIndicator attribute is equal to Rgsm.

The associated handOverControl and powerControl objects are created for the bts object. The mobileCountryCode and mobileNetworkCode attributes match those of the parent bsc object when they are defined for that object. The frequencies in the cellAllocation list comply with the standardIndicator attribute value. The minNbOfTDMA attribute value is less than or equal to the number of transceiver objects created for the bts object. Cavity cell: The number of dependent transceiver objects equals the number of frequencies in the cellAllocation list. Eight channel objects are created for each dependent transceiver object if the cell works in normal mode, four channel objects are created for each dependent transceiver object if the cell works in extended mode.
Only one of them has a channelType equal to "mainBCCH", "mainBCCHCombined", or "bcchSdcch4CBCH". If the smsCB attribute of the bts object is "used", one of them has a channelType equal to "sdcc8CBCH" or "bcchSdcch4CBCH". Concentric cell: Two transceiverZone objects are created for the bts object. Each dependent transceiver object refers to a transceiverZone object (transceiver zone Ref is defined). All channel objects describing the cell BCCH or common channels (channelType = "cCH") depend on transceiver objects allotted to the outer zone. If frequency hopping is allowed in a zone (zone frequency hopping), it is allowed in the cell (btsIshopping). The frequencies used by the transceiver objects in a zone are separate from the frequencies used by the transceiver objects in the other zone.

Releasing a bts object by shutting down sustains the calls supported by the described cell. The system actions are as follows:
Radio resources remain allocated until the calls end. Once a TDMA frame is released, a CLEAR CONFIG REQUEST message is sent to the partnered TRX/DRX. When all calls are terminated, the cell is released (administrativeState = "locked" and operationalState = "disabled") and the concerned TRX/DRXs and TDMA frames are unreachable (availabilityStatus = "{dependency}". It is recommended to bar direct access to the cell before initiating a soft release (cellBarred = "barred"), to prevent off-call mobiles from listening to the cell during the soft release phase, so they can immediately re-select another cell for receiving or sending calls. It is recommended also to forbid incoming handovers in the cell (incomingHandOver = "disabled"), to remove the cell from the list of eligible cells and, thus, avoid its selection if the BTS receives such a request. In order to speed up the soft release process, the Force HandOvers command can be used first to redirect the traffic currently handled by the serving cell towards its neighbor cells. If a hard lock request is sent during the soft release phase, all the calls supported by the cell are immediately released by the BSC. If the administrativeState of the object is unlocked and the availabilityStatus is unknown, the object status is undetermined. You must request the status of the bsc object on the OMC-R, to update the network view.

The following checks are only performed when the btsSiteManager object is unlocked:
The scheduled time slot (pcmTimeSlotNumber) is masked in the btsSiteManager object radioSiteMask. The radioSiteMask of all btsSiteManager objects sharing a same PCM link in the BSS are dissociated and their scheduled time slots are different and masked in their radioSiteMask. The bscSitePcmList list includes at least two items if the btsSiteManager object redundantPcmPresence attribute is "true". All pcmCircuit objects referenced in the list (pcmCircuitBsc components) are created for the parent bsc object and assigned to the Abis interface. One of them identifies a PCM link with a pcmCircuitBt sSiteManager reference in the range [0 to 3] for clock synchronization. The greatest bts object identifier must be lower than the maxNbOfCells value of the parent btsSiteManager object. The configRef attribute defines a DLU file downloaded to the BSC disk. The dependent software object is created and its sWVersionRunning attribute defines a software version downloaded to the BSC disk. If the administrativeState of the object is unlocked and the availabilityStatus is unknown, the object status is undetermined.

In that case, data collecting is stopped in the related BSC. However, current messages are stored by the BSC and notified to the OMC-R agent. Object : Type : Notes : callPathTrace DP
If trace data collecting is stopped by locking the object, the BSC continues to send the current trace messages to the OMC-R agent, but no notifications are issued. If trace data collecting is stopped by locking the object or on reaching the end-of-session criterion, it is automatically restarted whenever the callPathTrace object is unlocked. For instance, if the end-of-session criterion defines a period of time that elapsed, data collecting will restart for the entire period.

The lapdLinkOMLRef and lapdLink RSLRef attributes of the transceiverEquipment object refer to lapdLink objects using the same lapdTerminalNumber in the parent BSC. The related software object is created and its sWVersionRunning attribute defines a software version downloaded to the BSC disk.
Releasing a transceiverEquipment object by shutting down sustains the calls supported by the described TRX/DRX and the partnered TDMA frame. The system actions which may be carried out are the following:
To carry out a soft release. This action does not automatically cause a handover. By carrying out this action, the operator must wait for the end of the coms before the TRX/DRX changes to "blocked". To carry out a forced handover. A forced handover on the bts object will cause the DRX/TRX to change to "blocked" more quickly. If the TDMA frame affected by this operation has priority over other frames in the BSS, the BSC re-configures that frame on a different TRX/DRX and immediately transfers the current calls handled by the TRX/DRX being released. When all calls are transferred or terminated, the TRX/DRX is released (administrativeState = "locked" and operationalState = "disabled"), and the partnered TDMA frame is unreachable if it has not been reconfigured (availabilityStatus = "{dependency}".
Note :
If a hard lock request is sent during the soft release phase, all the calls handled by the TRX/DRX are immediately released by the BSC. If the administrativeState of the object is unlocked and the availabilityStatus is unknown, the object status is undetermined. You must request the status of the bsc object on the OMC-R, to update the network view.

The BSC will refuse to unlock a terrestrial traffic circuit that could break the OMC channel connection down. Releasing an xtp object by shutting down sustains the call supported by the described terrestrial traffic circuit. The system actions are as follows:
Notes :
Any further attempt of the MSC to allocate the terrestrial circuit is refused. When the call is completed, the terrestrial circuit is released (administrativeState = "locked" and operationalState = "disabled"). All terrestrial circuits supported by a given PCM link can be softly released at the same time. If the PCM link supports a signaling link, it remains operating. If a hard lock request is sent during the soft release phase, the call supported by the terrestrial circuit is immediately released by the BSC.

Remark :
For a GSM 1900 network (standardIndicator of bts object set to pcs1900), the MD-R checks the following: bsTxPwrMax < 32 (dB) when an edge frequency is defined for the cell (i.e. if the value is included in the cellAllocation attribute values). The use of edge frequencies leads to a cell power reduction. The list of edge frequencies is described in the MD-R configuration file, MD/base/config/boundEdge.cfg. This file is can be configured off-line. To update the database according to the list of edge frequencies, use the shell /MD/install/shell/cm_configBde.sh.

If frequency hopping is allowed, the GSM "fhMgt" function is defined in the siteGsmFctList attribute of the parent btsSiteManager object. If it is disabled, no channel object dependent on the bts object is authorized to obey frequency hopping laws.
Note :
[M]:
The "xxxWithCarrierFilling" configuration means that the BTS covering the cell must use a TX for BCCH filling purposes. The following apply:
The BSC sends the information to the BTS in the Abis CELL CONFIGURATION REQUEST message. If the BTS does not have a redundant TRX/DRX, one of the operating TRX/DRXs is assigned to that purpose and the partnered TDMA frame is unreachable (refer to the operationalState entry for the transceiver object in the Dictionary). When this TRX/DRX is malfunctioning, the BTS re-configures the other TRX/DRXs. Users are then warned by the system, by means of a notification.
The "noHoppingWithCarrierFilling" configuration can be used in all BTSs, regardless of the coupling mode. The following apply:
Hybrid coupling: All cell TX configurations provide BCCH filling. Cavity coupling: Only the TX that transmits the cell BCCH frequency is configured to provide BCCH filling.
The "hoppingWithCarrierFilling" configuration can only be used in BTSs that use cavity coupling. The following apply:

An SDCCH is only allocated to a mobile during call setup. Once the call is established, the SDCCH is released and a TCH supports the call, serving traffic and signaling needs. A CBCH (Cell Broadcast CHannel) configuration enables use of the Short Message Service -Cell Broadcast (SMS-CB) in a cell when a radio time slot of a TDMA frame related to the cell supports that type of channel. The CBCH can be combined with an SDCCH/8 or a BCCH+SDCCH/4. It takes the place of SDCCH no.2 in all cases.

Remark :
Configuration of logical channels and broadcast of short messages are managed by two independent OMC-R functions. When a short message broadcast is started in a cell, the presence of a channel object with a CBCH dependent on the concerned bts object is checked. On the contrary, the SMS-CB function is not aware of changes made to that attribute. Consequently, withdrawing a CBCH from a cell configuration will implicitly stop any short message broadcast in the cell without the SMS-CB function knowing.
Note :
The following counters have been multiplexed on TSs 0, 2, 4, and 6 for the Extended CCCH feature: C1026, C1027, C1028, C1029, C1030, C1031, C1033, C1604, C1605. No recommended value is specified since this parameter depends on the strategy of the operator.

Checks:
[C/M]
Measurement distribution cannot be activated if interference matrix is running on this cell. The purpose of this semantic check is to forbid activation of interference matrix and distribution features at the same time on a cell.
Note :
This parameter is mandatory. It is only available for BSC 3000 V15 and later, and applicable since BSC 3000 V15.1.1. The distributionTime parameter set by the operator is relative to the OMC-R server current timer, and not to the local BTS hour. In case of feature activation on all cells of a BSC, the time to compute all the corresponding TGEs can take up to 20 minutes. To ensure that the feature is not to be activated the day after, the operator must leave a margin of 30 minutes between activation time and distributionTime parameter.

Description : Definition of the PCM time slots used by a site. TS n is masked when bit n is set to 0, it is used when bit n is set to 1 in the binary field. The radio site mask is immediately displayed in the hexadecimal field just below. The radio site mask is set using the hexadecimal field as well as the binary field. The mask defines the time slots used in each PCM link allotted to a given radio site. Time slot allocation is managed by the BSC; a time slot available on a site is used either by a radio time slot for traffic purposes or by a LAPD link which does not carry the link with the site BCF for signaling. A PCM E1 link carries thirty-two time slots. TS 0 (least significant bit) is always masked since it cannot be used. The radioSiteMask of a site using E1 links is as follows:
radioSiteMask = xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx0 ||||| TS31 23 15 7 TS0 A PCM T1 link carries twenty-four time slots. The radioSiteMask of a site using T1 links is as follows: radioSiteMask = XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX || TS24 TS1 Sites that do not share PCM links are assigned the full set.

The attribute value is "used" if the channelType of one of the channel objects dependent on the bts object is "bcchSdcch4CBCH" or "sdcch8CBCH" .
Remark :
Configuration of logical channels and broadcast of short messages are managed by two separate OMC-R functions. When a short message broadcast is started, the presence of a CBCH in the channelType of a channel object dependent on a concerned bts object is checked. However, the SMS-CB function is not aware of changes made to that attribute. Consequently, withdrawing a CBCH from the configuration will stop any short message broadcast in the concerned cell without the SMS-CB function knowing.

For each idle radio channel, the BTS permanently measures the signal strength level RXLEV. When averagingPeriod "Measurement results" messages have been received, the L1M function in the BTS calculates interference level averages, sorts the idle channels according to the five defined interference levels (Level 0 corresponds to the lowest interference level), and sends the information to the BSC.

Since the last four time slots of that link are not mapped on the Ater interface, they are unusable (refer to the transcoderMatrix entry in the Dictionary). This attribute cannot be modified due to its relationship with the mscPcmTsNumber component of the cic attribute.

[C]:
The number of terrestrial circuits linked to a BSC 12000HC is limited to 1288 if PCM E1 links are used and to 1440 if PCM T1 links are used. The software object related to the bsc object is created. The referenced pcmCircuit object (pcmCircuitId) is assigned to the A interface and depends on the same transcoder object (transcoderId) as the xtp object. The time slot used by the xtp object (timeSlotNumber) is identical to the mscPcmTsNumber component of the cic attribute. The referenced PCM,TS pair (pcmCircuitId and timeSlotNumber) is not already assigned to an xtp or signallingLink object dependent on the same transcoder object, and the time slot is not mapped on the TS used by the OMC channel on the Ater interface. If the terrestrial circuit uses PCMA link no.3 (pcmCircuitId), the timeSlotNumber is in the range [1 to 27] if the PCM link is an E1 link or in the range [1 to 20] if the PCM link is a T1 link. Since the last four time slots of that link are not mapped on the Ater interface, they are unusable (refer to the transcoderMatrix entry in the Dictionary). If the application database of the related BSC is built, the parent bsc object is unlocked. If the application database of the related BSC is built, the parent bsc object is unlocked and the xtp object is locked.
