GPRS Attach procedure is used for the following two purposes:
a normal GPRS Attach - attach the IMSI for GPRS services only
a combined GPRS Attach - attach the IMSI for GPRS and non-GPRS
services (needs Gs interface)
Attach procedure description
If network accepts, it sends Attach Accept
If network does not accept it sends Attach Rejected
MS can respond for Attach Accept message with Attach Complete (if
P-TMSI changes)

PDP Context (Packet Data Protocol):
Network level information which is used to bind a mobile station
(MS) to various PDP addresses and to unbind the mobile station from
these addresses after use
PDP Context Activation
Initiated by the MS
Contains QoS and routing information enabling data transfer between
MS and GGSN
PDP Context Activation and Deactivation should occur within 2
seconds
PDP Context Request
Temporary Block Flow (TBF):
Physical connection where multiple mobile stations can share one or
more traffic channels – each MS has own TFI (Temporary Flow
Indicator)
The traffic channel is dedicated to one mobile station at a time
(one mobile station is transmitting or receiving at a time)
Is a one-way session for packet data transfer between MS and BSC
(PCU)
Uses either uplink or downlink but not both (except for associated
signaling)
Can use one or more TSLs
Comparison with circuit-switched:
normally one connection uses both the uplink and the downlink
timeslot(s) for traffic
In two-way data transfer:
uplink and downlink data are sent in separate TBFs - as below

(E)GPRS Territory
Free TSL Size
Territories consists of consecutive timeslots (starting from
RTSL7)
GPRS dedicated time slots (CDED) can be defined. Only (E)GPRS can
use them.
PS territory TRX has to be defined by enabling the GTRX
parameter
Dedicated territory (CDEF) is subset of Default territory
The Maximum GPRS capacity (CMAX) defined the total maximum size for
the (E)GPRS territory
Dedicated GPRS Capacity (%)
GTRX=Y
Presentation / Author
PS traffic
Nr of TBFs per Radio timeslot can get above the allowed threshold
() and the territory will be upgraded (if possible)
CS traffic
CS has priority over PS outside the dedicated territory and can
downgrade the territory
The amount of timeslots for data will depend also on the
parameters
CSU - Free TSL for CS Upgrade
CSD - Free TSL for CS Downgrade (CSD)
Territory upgrade in interval of Territory Upgrade Guard Time (both
for upgrade and downgrade)

Dedicated GPRS Capacity (CDED) – timeslots only for PS (no
CS)
Default GPRS Capacity (CDEF) - timeslots primarily for PS (CS can
overtake)
MAX GPRS Capacity (CMAX) – maximum territory size
CDED/CDEF/CMAX percentage is converted to TSL by multiplying it
with all FR traffic capable TSLs (FR/DR) of the cell where
GTRX=Y.
Signaling and HR TSLs of TRXs (where GTRX=Y) are not taken into
account in the calculation.
The product of CDED/CDEF/CMAX and FR capable TSLs (GTRX=Y) is
rounded down to a whole number
Rounding up will take place only when CDED/CDEF/CMAX value > 0%
and rounding would result to 0.

Abis Basic Concepts
PCM frame (E1)
One 64 kbit/s (8 bits) channel in PCM frame is called timeslot
(TSL)
One 16 kbit/s (2bits) channel timeslot is Sub-TSL
PCM frame has 32 (E1) or 26 (E1) TSLs
One Radio timeslot corresponds one 16 kbit/s Sub-TSL (BCCH, TCH/F
etc.) and one TRX takes two TSLs from Abis
One TRX has dedicated TRXsig of 16, 32 or 64 kbit/s
One BCF has dedicated BCFsig (16 or 64 kbit/s) for O&M
TRX1

PRFILE PCU Telecom Parameters
Parameter 046: 0047 - 0054
Functionality of EGPRS DL requests:
These parameters are used by the RLC ACK algorithm to determine how
frequently the PCU polls the mobile station having a TBF in EGPRS
mode.
The PCU has a counter, which is incremented by one whenever an RLC
data block is transmitted for the first time
The counter is incremented by (1 + EGPRS_DOWNLINK_PENALTY) whenever
a negatively acknowledged RLC data block is retransmitted.
The mobile station is polled when the counter exceeds the threshold
value of EGPRS_DOWNLINK_THRESHOLD.
Presentation / Author
PCU
Transmission and acknowledgement
MS is not expecting to receive NACK for the transmitted block until
(max(BS_CV_MAX,1) – 1) in RLC/MAC block period
(20ms).
So the NACK in the PACKET UPLINK ACK/NACK message will be ignored,
if the round trip time is less than
(max(BS_CV_MAX,1) – 1).
If the BS_CV_MAX is e.g. 9, than the RTT will be (9-1)*20ms
->160ms
BS_CV_MAX is also impacting T3200 (MS timer), N3104 (MS timer) and
Countdown procedure

TBF Release Delay
If there is not any RLC/MAC block received, the TBF will not be
released immediately, but it can be kept alive for a given time
period.
There are two modifiable parameters related to Delayed TBF
feature among PRFILE parameters:
DL_TBF_RELEASE_DELAY (0,1-5sec, def 1s) Parameter
46:0067
Adjust the delay in downlink TBF release.
During DL delay period the possibly following uplink TBF can be
established faster and frequent releases and re-establishments of
downlink TBF can be avoided
UL_TBF_RELEASE_DELAY (0,1-3sec, def 0,5s) Parameter
46:0068
This parameter is used to adjust the delay in uplink TBF
release.
During UL delay period following downlink TBF can be established
faster.
Presentation / Author
EUTM is Rel4 feature - MS support required.
If EUTM is activated (MML: ZWOA,PRFILE) and MS supports it the UL
TBF Release parameter is ignored.
UL_TBF_REL_DELAY_EXT
This parameter defines the uplink TBF release delay time for mobile
stations supporting the Extended UL TBF Mode.
Default value: 1000D
UL_TBF_SCHED_RATE_EXT
This parameter defines how often a USF is scheduled for the MS
during the inactivity period in Extended UL TBF Mode. Parameter
value unit is 20 ms (block period). Eg. value 5 means 100 ms (5
block periods).
Default value: 5D

Short description:
Countdown procedure is ongoing. EUTM supporting mobile is allowed
to recalculate CV during procedure, if it gets more data to send.
PCU notices this by monitoring Block Sequence Number (BSN) and
Countdown value (CV) sent by MS.
After receiving CV=0 block PCU starts UL extended state. It sends
Packet Uplink Ack/Nack message to MS with no Final Ack Indicator
(FAI) on, but acknowledging all received blocks.
During UL extended state PCU schedules USFs for MS according
adjustable scheduling rate parameter. If MS has no new data to send
it sends UL dummy control blocks on its sending turn.
When UL extended state ends, according adjustable release delay
parameter, PCU sends Packet Uplink Ack/Nack message to MS with
Final Ack Indicator (FAI) on.

it sends UL dummy control blocks on its sending turn.
When MS gets new data to send during extended state, it sends UL
data block with new BSN, and also new CV value when needed. Due BSN
PCU knows that new UL LLC is to be sent by MS, and UL TBF continues
as normally.

GPRS Coding Schemes
CS1 & CS2 – Implemented in all NSN BTS without HW change
CS1 & CS4 – S11.5 (with PCU2) and UltraSite BTS SW CX4.1 CD1
(Talk does not support CS3 and CS4)
NSN GPRS
Introduction with PCU1
The coding scheme will change based on BLER Thresholds.
The BLER thresholds are defined by simulations and change from
hopping to non hopping networks
X
where:
8.0 kbps is the theoretical maximum bit rate for CS-1
12.0 kbps is the theoretical maximum bit rate for CS-2
BLER_CP_CS1 is the block error rate at the crosspoint when CS-1 is
used
BLER_CP_CS2 is the block error rate at the crosspoint when CS-2 is
used
Averaging is based on 10 RLC/MAC blocks
The parameters on the following slides correspond to the
BLER_CP_CS1.
C/I (dB)
RLC/MAC throughput
GPRS Coding Scheme No Hopping (COD)
The selection of Coding Scheme in RLC Acknowledged mode is
indicated (frequency hopping is not used).
Range: Link Adaptation used (0),
CS-1 used (1),
CS-2 used (2).
DL BLER Crosspoint for CS Selection Non Hopping (DLB)
The RLC BLER (block error rate percentage) for CS-1 channel coding
is indicated.
At this point CS-1 and CS-2 give the same effective bit rate and
Coding Scheme selection criteria in RLC Acknowledged mode for
downlink TBFs changes.
The parameter is meaningful only if link adaptation is used in case
of no frequency hopping.
Range: 0...100 %, step 1 % . Default: 90%
UL BLER Crosspoint for CS Selection Non Hopping (ULB)
Same as above but for UL
Range: 0...100 %, step 1 % . Default: 90%

GPRS Coding Scheme Hopping (CODH)
The selection of Coding Scheme in RLC Acknowledged mode is
indicated (frequency hopping is used).
Range: Link Adaptation used (0), CS-1 used (1), CS-2 used
(2).
Default: Link Adaptation used (0)
DL BLER Crosspoint for CS Selection Hopping (DLBH)
The RLC BLER (block error rate percentage) for CS-1 channel coding
is indicated.
At this point CS-1 and CS-2 give the same effective bit rate and
Coding Scheme selection criteria in RLC Acknowledged mode for
downlink TBFs changes.
The parameter is meaningful only if Link Adaptation and Frequency
Hopping are used.
Range: 0...100 %, step 1 % . Default: 20%
UL BLER Crosspoint for CS Selection Hopping (ULBH)
Same as above but for UL.
Range: 0...100 %, step 1 % . Default: 24%

GPRS Link Adaptation Algorithm (CS1-2) Parameters with PCU1
Calculation of the cross point of CS1 and CS2 is based on the
following formula: 8.0 kbps * (1 - BLER_CP_CS1) = 12 kbps * (1 -
BLER_CP_CS2)
The below examples shows the relation CS1 and CS2 from BLER point
of view:
COD (set to 2) with default DLB (set to 90%)
8.0 kbps * (1 - BLER_CP_CS1(DLB: 90%)) = 12 kbps * (1 -
BLER_CP_CS2(calculated: 94,4%))
CS1 will be selected instead of CS2 if CS2 has worse BLER than 94.4
%
CODH (set to 2) with default DLBH (set to 20%)
8.0 kbps * (1 - BLER_CP_CS1(DLB: 20%)) = 12 kbps * (1 -
BLER_CP_CS2(calculated: 46,6%))
CS1 will be selected instead of CS2 if CS2 has worse BLER than 46.6
%
Remark: When the LA algorithm is used, the initial CS value at the
beginning of a TBF is CS-2.

DL adaptation probability threshold (DLA)
The allowed probability (%) is defined for the system to make a
wrong decision in downlink adaptation.
Range: 0...50 %, step 1 % . Default: 20%
UL adaptation probability threshold (ULA)
The allowed probability (%) is defined for the system to make a
wrong decision in uplink adaptation.
Range: 0...50 %, step 1 % . Default: 10%

Link Adaptation
The task of the LA algorithm is to select the optimal MCS for each
radio condition to maximize RLC/MAC data rate, so the LA algorithm
is used to adapt to situations where signal strength and / or C/I
level is pure and changing within time
Normally, LA adapts to path loss and shadowing but not fast fading.
IR is better suited to compensate fast fading
Incremental Redundancy
The retransmission process is based on Incremental Redundancy
LA must take into account if IR combining is performed at the
receiver.
LA must take into account the effect of finite IR memory.

EGPRS MCS Families
The MCSs are divided into different families A, B and C
Each family has a different basic unit of payload: 37 (and 34), 28
and 22 octets respectively.
Different code rates within a family are achieved by transmitting a
different number of payload units within one Radio Block.
For families A and B, 1 or 2 or 4 payload units are transmitted,
for family C, only 1 or 2 payload units are transmitted
When 4 payload units are transmitted (MCS 7, MSC-8 and MCS-9),
these are splitted into two separate RLC blocks (with separate
sequence BSN numbers and BCS, Block Check Sequences)
The blocks are interleaved over two bursts only, for MCS-8 and
MCS-9.
For MCS-7 the blocks are interleaved over four bursts

EGPRS Link Adaptation Enabled (ELA)
The EGPRS link adaptation can be enabled / disabled on cell
level.
If disabled the system uses the MCS value defined by initial MCS
for acknowledged mode or initial MCS for unacknowledged mode
parameters or a lower MCS.
Range: EGPRS link adaptation is disabled (0), enabled for RLC
acknowledged mode (1), enabled for RLC acknowledged and
unacknowledged (2) .
Default: enabled for RLC acknowledged and unacknowledged (2)
Presentation / Author
Initial MCS for Acknowledged Mode (MCA)
Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) used at the beginning of a TBF
for acknowledged mode. The parameter is used in EGPRS link
adaptation.
Range: 1...9, step 1. Default: 6
Initial MCS for Unacknowledged Mode (MCU)
MCS used at the beginning of a TBF for unacknowledged mode. The
parameter is used in EGPRS link adaptation
Range: 1...9, step 1. Default: 5
Remark
PCU1 uses always initial MCS value read from user parameter for new
established TBF.
PCU2 uses last used MCS of previous TBF as initial MCS for new TBF
in situation when opposite direction of TBF has been active from
last TBF release to new TBF establishment (so the MS context has
stayed stored in PCU2 memory), and if no BTS re-selection was done
for opposite direction of TBF.

Maximum BLER in Acknowledged Mode (BLA)
This parameter indicates the maximum block error rate of first
transmission in acknowledged mode. The parameter is used in EGPRS
link adaptation.
Range: 10...100 %, step 1 %. Default: 90%
Maximum BLER in Unacknowledged Mode (BLU)
With this parameter you indicate the maximum block error rate in
unacknowledged mode. The parameter is used in EGPRS link
adaptation.
Range: 10...100 %, step 1 %. Default: 10%
Remark:
The BLA 90% means that the coding scheme selection is done by LA
algorithm, if the BLER is less than 90%.
If the BLER is higher than 90%, then the decision of LA will be
ignored and MCS will be downgraded
Presentation / Author
MBG and MBP parameters adjusts the MCS and modulation
preferences.
Mean BEP Offset GMSK (MBG)
This is the offset added to reported GMSK mean BEP values before
BEP table lookups.
The value applies to both uplink and downlink directions.
Range: -31...31, step 1. Default: 0
Mean BEP Offset 8PSK (MBP)
This is the offset added to reported 8PSK mean BEP values before
BEP table lookups.
The value applies to both uplink and downlink directions.
Range: -31...31, step 1. Default: 0
Presentation / Author
Parameters
The matrix shows an example how the MCSs are selected based on
GMSK_CV_BEP and GMSK_MEAN_BEP figures.
More tables are available from NED/NOLS
MBG can be used to move the selection decision information to both
directions to have more robust or less robust CS decision for the
same GMSK_CV_BEP and GMSK_MEAN_BEP figures.

TSL sharing
The max amount of TBFs per TSL can be limited by the following
parameters:
Maximum Number of DL TBF (MNDL)
This parameter defines the maximum number of TBFs that a radio time
slot can have in a GPRS territory, in the downlink direction.
Range: 1...9, step 1. Default: 9
Maximum Number of UL TBF (MNUL)
This parameter defines the maximum number of TBFs that a radio time
slot can have in a GPRS territory, in the uplink direction.
Range: 1...7, step 1. Default: 7

DL TSLs in (E)GPRS/GPRS multiplexing
In PCU2 USF Granularity 4 is used, meaning that 1 block carrying
USF signaling to GPRS TBF assigns transmission turn to GPRS TBF for
4 consecutive UL radio blocks.
Originally 4 DL 8-PSK TSLs (TSL 4-7) were used, but now TSL 6 and 7
are GMSK modulated, because of USF is pointed to GPRS MS

Territory upgrade/downgrade
The algorithm checks the need for re-allocation in given period
defined by TBF_LOAD_GUARD_THRSHLD, in order to separate TBFs.
The Territory Upgrade/Downgrade procedure is performed with three
parameters:
X1: 1.5, X2: 1, X3: 0.5
The PS RRM request an upgrade when the average number of TBF's per
TSL in the PS territory is greater than X1 (and Default territory
is already allocated)
The target average number of TBFs in the PS territory is defined by
X2
When the average number of TBF per TSL in the PS territory is less
than X3, the PS RRM will request a GPRS downgrade. (but only as far
as the default boundary)
PRFILE modifiable parameter (default=50; values 0-255)
GPRS Territory Update Guard Timer (GTUGT, default: 5s)
This parameter defines the time which must elapse between two
subsequent territory updates.
Example:
The average number of TBF / TSL is 1.75 on the TRX below, so there
will be a territory upgrade request to achieve 1 TBF / TSL
