Prerequisites...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Introduction

The EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature has the following prerequisites.

Supported technologies

The EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature is supported in the following air-interfacetechnologies:

• CDMA cellular

• CDMA PCS

HLR configuration

The EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature is supported by the Integrated Home LocationRegister (IHLR) configuration.

The IHLR can provision a per subscriber vocoder list (in preference order) to facilitatethe EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature operation. However, this per subscriber IHLRprovisioning is not absolutely necessary for the operation of the EVRC-B Vocoder onPHV feature.

Software requirements

The following information describes the software requirements for the EVRC-BVocoder on PHV feature.

Software release

The Mobile Switching Center (MSC) components [ECP, Operations and ManagementPlatform (OMP), Operations and Maintenance Center Radio Access Network(OMC-RAN), cells, and Alcatel-Lucent Packet Switch {formerlyFlexent® PacketSwitch (FPS)}] require specific software releases before the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHVfeature is activated.

The software release requirements for the MSC components are as follows:

• ECP, OMP, and OMC-RAN

– Must be operating on Release 28.0 or later in all markets.

• Packet switch

– Must be operating on 5E21.1 or later in NAR markets.

– Must be operating on 5EE17.1 SU 6 or later in INTL markets (markets outsideof the NAR market).

• Cells

– Call set up cells must be operating on Release 28.0 or later in all markets.

– All cells in the target MSC’s Soft Handoff (SHO) universe must be operatingon Release 27.0 or later in all markets.

Feature activation

To activate the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature, theC E L L 141 - EVRCB Vocoder on PHV (FAEVRCB) entry must be active in the ECPFAF and the QFAF value must be set to the number of cells on which the EVRC-BVocoder on PHV feature is to be activated. TheCDMA EVRCB field on thecell2 formmust be set toy for all cells on which the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature is to besupported.

The EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature also requires the following features to beactivated:

• FID 12371.12, EVRC-B SH (NAR)For deployment, the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature is dependent on support ofEVRC-B on the packet switch. Support of EVRC-B on the packet switch for NorthAmerican Region (NAR) markets is implemented by FID 12371.12. The EVRC-BSpeech Handler (SH) feature on the packet switch introduces support of theEVRC-B voice coding algorithm on the PHV5 and PHV6. Without this packetswitch feature, EVRC-B calls are not supported.

– For a high-level overview of the packet switch support of the EVRC-B Vocoderon PHV feature, seeAppendix A, “Packet switch support of EVRC-B Vocoderon PHV”.

– For more detailed information about the packet switch support of the EVRC-BVocoder on PHV feature in NAR markets, see5ESS® SwitchFlexent®/AUTOPLEX® Wireless Networks Applications OA&M Manual,235-200-100.

Important! FID 12371.12 does not require the activation of a packet switchSecured Feature Identifier (SFID). However, additional packet switch QuantifiedFeature Identification (QFID) channels may or may not need to be obtained.

• FID 3746.xx, core 3G-1X featuresIn order to support all modes of operation, the core 3G-1X features are required.Otherwise, the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature must be restricted to operate onlyin Mode 0 to avoid voice quality degradation due to use of quarter rate frameswithout a Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) in 2G Rate Set 1 (RS1).

• FID 12371.11, INTL EVRC-B SHFor deployment, the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature is dependent on support ofEVRC-B on the packet switch. Support of EVRC-B on the packet switch for INTLmarkets is implemented by FID 12371.11. The EVRC-B Speech Handler (SH)feature on the packet switch introduces support of the EVRC-B voice codingalgorithm on the PHV5 and PHV6. Without this packet switch feature, EVRC-Bcalls are not supported.

– For a high-level overview of the packet switch support of the EVRC-B Vocoderon PHV feature, seeAppendix A, “Packet switch support of EVRC-B Vocoderon PHV”.

– For more detailed information about the packet switch support of the EVRC-BVocoder on PHV feature in INTL markets, see5ESS® SwitchFlexent®/AUTOPLEX® Wireless Networks Applications OA&M Manual,5AP.

Important!

1. The INTL EVRC-B SH feature requires the EVRC-B SH (NAR) feature (FID12371.12) to be activated.

2. FID 12371.11 does not require the activation of a packet switch SecuredFeature Identifier (SFID). However, additional packet switch Quantified FeatureIdentification (QFID) channels may or may not need to be obtained. Thisdepends on whether the deployment of the EVRC-B feature in the officerepresents an increase in channel counts beyond the number currently notallocated.

• FID 12371.13, TrFO/RTO Support for EVRC-B on FPS (NAR)This feature is required to provide EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature support forTrFO/RTO calls on the packet switch for deployment in NAR markets. If FID12371.13 is not activated in an office, EVRC-B TrFO/RTO calls will be routed tobecome a circuit switched call.

Introduction

The following information describes the functionality, benefits, and operation of theEVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature.

Vocoder assignment overview - general guidelines

The existing vocoder assignment mechanism handling EVRC, 13K, and 8K calls isfollowed to handle the new EVRC-B call.

Service negotiation

There is only one iteration in service negotiation (the system does not continuouslyrenegotiate).

The mobile requests one Service Option (SO) in the origination or page responsemessage and the ECP decides what SO to offer to the mobile. If the mobile accepts theSO, the call is set up. If the mobile rejects the SO, the call fails. This strategy providesfast call set up to minimize set up failure due to RF conditions.

Mobile behavior

Mobile originations and paging are handled as follows:

• Originations

– If an EVRC-B mobile is programmed to request EVRC-B for call originations,the call could fail in the pre-EVRC-B MSC (where EVRC-B is not available).

• PagingA mobile’s page response echoes the vocoder that is suggested in the pagingmessage (echo is the default), as shown in the following examples:

1. An EVRC mobile (capable of 13K) responds to 13K paging with 13K; toEVRC-B paging withpage_response SO =0 (in this case, EVRC-B isunknown to the mobile and the mobile does not want to propose a vocoder) orsome mobiles could respond with SO =EVRC.

2. An EVRC-B mobile (capable of EVRC-B, EVRC, and 13K) responds to EVRCpaging with EVRC; to 13K paging with 13K; to EVRC-B paging withEVRC-B; to unknown SO XYZ (could be a future vocoder) withpage_response SO =0 or some mobiles could respond with SO =EVRCB.

Setting up a voice call

To set up a voice call, the ECP chooses a vocoder based on the availability of thefollowing vocoder preference information:

1. Use the per mobile vocoder preference list that is provided in the origination orpage response message.

• NOTE: The Alternate Service Option (ALT_SO) list is reported only by 3Gmobiles.

2. Use the per subscriber preference list (Speech Option Selection (SOS) list – that ismanually provisioned by the technician, or automatically provisioned with the SOlist that is retrieved from the mobile).

3. If the ALT_SO list or SOS list is not available, use the per ECP vocoderassignment (from theecp form vocoder preference table).

Override mobile requested SO

There are three ways to set up a call with a preferred SO that is different from themobile requested SO (in the origination or page response).

• Always Set Up EVRCB Calls ecp3g form parameter - This works only if themobile reports its ALT_SO list containingEVRCB. For example, the mobile requestsEVRC, but reports its ALT_SO list containingEVRCB, this flag causes the call to beset up as an EVRC-B call.

• On a per subscriber level - A per subscriber SOS list is required for this operation.This SOS list contains a list of vocoders in preferential order that may be assignedto the mobile. This list can be used to override the mobile requested SO. Forexample, SOS list =EVRCB, EVRC, 13K. With this list, the mobile is paged withEVRC-B. A mobile that requests EVRC is assigned EVRC-B if the override isdesired in the MSC.

• On a per ECP level - When the ALT_SO list or SOS list is not available, thevocoder preference table on theecp form is followed. For example, the first choicefor an EVRC-B origination request could be set to EVRC to override a mobilerequest for EVRC-B.

Selecting page SO

If the per subscriber SOS list is activated, the first MSC-supported vocoder is used asthe page SO.

• For example, if SOS list = EVRC-B, EVRC, 13K, and if the MSC supportsEVRC-B, then page SO = EVRC-B. For the same SOS list, if the MSC does notsupport EVRC-B, but supports EVRC, then page SO = EVRC. On the other hand,if the SOS list = EVRC, 13K, the mobile is paged with EVRC (assuming EVRC issupported in the MSC).

If the SOS list is not available, the followingecp form field is used to page themobile:

• Preferred Vocoding Algorithm in Page Msg

– In this case, if the value is EVRC, all mobiles (without an SOS list) in theMSC are paged with EVRC.

– This field cannot be set to EVRC-B (EVRC-B is not an allowed value).

Functionality

For supporting circuit switched voice calls, the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV is a newvocoder in the succession of vocoders for the CDMA system. This vocoder operates asan RS1 vocoder in the range of 300-3400 Hz (audio bandwidth) and provides theability to trade-off capacity for quality through various operating points. The EVRC-Bvocoder is capable of increasing 3G-1X circuit-switched voice capacity byapproximately 15-25% with comparable voice quality.

Unlike the previous vocoders, the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV offers both highercapacity and/or better voice quality. Two-way conversational voice services remainstrong due to tremendous subscriber growth worldwide. However, voice capacity haslargely remained unchanged. Service providers need to make voice services moreaffordable and maintain their overall cost. A near-term solution is to rely on better andmore efficient voice compression.

The EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature with its various operating modes complimentsthe voice capacity by offering Service Providers the following performanceimprovement options:

• The industry’s highest quality digital voice coder

• Significantly increased RF capacity with a good voice quality vocoder

The EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature has feature parity with the EVRC vocoder;specifically Dynamic Vocoder Allocation, External Echo Cancellation (EEC), AcousticEcho Cancellation (AEC), Teletypewriter/Telecommunications Devices for the Deaf(TTY/TDD), MVC, Enhanced Speech Option Call Assignment (ESOCA), SOS, andALT_SO features work for EVRC-B as they work for EVRC. With regards to theDynamic Vocoder Allocation capability, the EVRC-B capable PHV can simultaneouslysupport EVRC-B and EVRC vocoders. However, the EVRC-B capable PHV does notsupport 13K vocoding.

The TrFO/RTO Support for EVRC-B on FPS (NAR) feature (FID 12371.13) providesthe ability to set up an EVRC-B TrFO or RTO call. If FID 12371.13 is not active in anoffice, EVRC-B TrFO/RTO calls will be routed to become a circuit-switched call.Please refer toTranscoder Free Operation and Remote Transcoder Operation(TrFO/RTO) Planning and Implementation Guide,401-710-093 for more informationon TrFO/RTO.

Operating modes

The EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature supports eight operating modes (0-7) that allowthe service provider to trade off between capacity and voice quality. Rate reduction isobtained by adjusting the proportion of full to quarter rate frames.

The operating modes that are supported by the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature areshown inTable 1, “EVRC-B vocoder operating modes” (p. 13).

Table 1 EVRC-B vocoder operating modes

EVRC-B Mode Active average channelencoding rate 1 - kbps

Active average sourceencoding rate 2 - kbps

0 9.3 8.3

1 8.5 7.6

2 7.5 6.6

3 7.0 6.18

4 6.6 5.82

5 6.2 5.45

6 5.8 5.08

7 4.8 4.0

Notes:

1. Active average channel encoding rate = payload + overhead:

• (9.6*Nfull + 4.8*Nhalf + 2.4*Nquarter) / (Nfull + Nhalf + Nquarter)

2. Active average source encoding rate = payload:

• (8.55*Nfull + 4.0*Nhalf + 2.0*Nquarter) / (Nfull + Nhalf + Nquarter)

How the feature operates

The EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature operates like the EVRC vocoder. All of theRC/V control, call set up vocoder negotiation, vocoder provisioning, servicemeasurements, and status display functions are similar to the EVRC vocoder operation.

The EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature operation differs from that of the EVRCvocoder in the following ways:

• Mode set up – The EVRC-B vocoder has to set the mode for the forward air link(from cell to mobile) and for the reverse air link (from mobile to cell).

• RC/V setting - Provides an RC/V setting to allowAlways Set Up EVRCB Callseven if the mobile requests EVRC instead (for this to work EVRC-B must beincluded in the ALT_SO list for the mobile).

• Hardware required - Requires PHV5 or PHV6 circuit packs.

Mobile behavior

For a description of the EVRC-B mobile behavior, see“Mobile behavior” (p. 10).

Mode determination

An EVRC-B mobile with the Qualcomm chip set supports all three vocoder types:EVRC-B, EVRC, and 13K.

During EVRC-B call set up, when the MSC assigns an EVRC-B vocoder to anEVRC-B mobile origination or page response, the mode determination proceeds asfollows:

1. Reverse EVRC-B mode (mobile to PHV) – The cell instructs the mobile to set upthe reverse mode according to the per sectorceqface3g RC/V setting (blank, 0-7).If the mode is not entered on this form, the mode is taken from theecp3g form.

2. Forward EVRC-B mode (PHV to mobile) – The cell instructs the PHV to set upthe forward mode according to the per sectorceqface3g RC/V setting (blank, 0-7).If the mode is not entered on this form the mode is taken from theecp3g form.

• Note: The reverse and forward modes are static – no dynamic mode changesare supported.

3. Mode parity -

• On the same EVRC-B call, the forward mode is independent of the reversemode (for example, forward mode = 4, reverse mode = 0).

• In each direction, the receiving end EVRC-B vocoder does not need to knowthe sending end EVRC-B vocoder mode.

4. Backward compatibility – Mode 0 is required for 2G Channel Elements (CEs)[Mode 0 does not generate quarter rate packets since 2G does not support the CRCcheck for quarter rate packets].

5. The originating side and terminating side independently determine their own Modefor reverse link and forward link. Either side can change the Mode withoutaffecting the other. For an example of this, seeFigure 1, “EVRC-B independentcall mode example” (p. 14).

Migrating to EVRC-B

The following subsections provide information that is related to considerations andchanges that are needed to migrate an existing network to support/activate the EVRC-BVocoder on PHV feature.

Pre-deployment

Before the network (MSCs, neighboring MSCs, and roaming partners) is ready forEVRC-B (that is, no EVRC-B service for any mobiles) the following considerationsand changes are needed:

1. Pre-seeded EVRC-B mobiles should be programmed as follows:

• Primary SO =EVRC to avoid call failure in non-EVRC-B capable networks.In this case, the mobile puts EVRC-B in the ALT_SO list (EVRCB should befirst on list), which can be reported to the MSC to use to override the primarySO request. The EVRC request can alternatively be overridden by the SOS list.There is no need to reprogram the mobile when the network becomes EVRC-Bready.

Note,pre-seeded EVRC-B mobilesare EVRC-B capable mobiles that are in thenetwork prior to the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature being deployed.

2. ECP setting:

• MSC vocoder support – set to no support of EVRC-B – (setEVRCB field to no(n) in the ecp form System Vocoder Capability fields).

• Assign EVRC as the first choice vocoder to the EVRC-B origination and pageresponse fields in theecp form. If both the first and second choice vocoderfields are left blank, the mobile could be redirected to analog or could fail.

3. If the SOS feature is active, then

• for both ahomerand roamerwith SOS list = (EVRC-B, EVRC, 13K), theMSC pages the mobile with EVRC (since EVRC-B is not supported in theMSC).

• a mobile that originates with EVRC-B is assigned EVRC (since EVRC-B is notsupported in the MSC).

Pre-deployment testing - Cas e 1 - no pre-seeded mobiles

Case 1 is before the network is ready for EVRC-B and when there are no pre-seededEVRC-B mobiles. EVRC-B service is provided for test mobiles only (and maybe forroamers also).

In this case, all EVRC-B capable mobiles (including test mobiles and non-test mobiles)will be assigned EVRC-B. For non-test mobiles, there are no EVRC-B homers, butthere could be EVRC-B roamers. For Case 1, the following considerations and changesare needed:

1. Mobile setting:

• Some EVRC-B test mobiles are set to originate EVRC-B, some to EVRC.

2. ECP setting:

• MSC vocoder support– turn on support of EVRC-B – (setEVRCB field to yes(y) in the ecp form System Vocoder Capability fields).

• Set EVRC-B as first choice vocoder for EVRC-B Origination and EVRC-BPage Response fields in theecp form.

• System page remains at EVRC (ecp form will not accept EVRC-B).

• Turn on theUse Alternate Service Options to Select Vocoder field in theecp form.

• Set theMaximum Number of Alternate Service Options field in the ecp formto 1 (also on the cell sectorceqface form when necessary).

• No RC/V changes are required for existing mobiles.

• Do not provision the SOS list for test mobiles.

• Set theAlways Set Up EVRCB Calls field in the ecp3g form to yes (y). WhenEVRC-B is contained in the ALT_SO list that is reported by the mobile in theorigination or page response (for example, primary SO =EVRC, ALT_SO =EVRCB, 13K), the MSC assigns EVRC-B to set up an EVRC-B call.

3. Results – for homer test mobile:

• Mobiles that request EVRC-B in origination will be assigned EVRC-B.

• Mobiles that request EVRC in origination and report EVRC-B in their ALT_SOlist will be assigned EVRC-B. If no ALT_SO list is reported, the mobile will beassigned EVRC.

• Mobiles that are paged with EVRC will respond with EVRC, report EVRC-B intheir ALT_SO list, and will be assigned EVRC-B. If no ALT_SO list isreported, the mobile will be assigned EVRC.

4. Results - for roaming EVRC-B mobile (coming from non-home MSC) with orwithout an SOS list:

• Same results as for homer test mobile.

5. Results - for EVRC-B mobile (homer or roamer) requesting EVRC in originationor page response, but not reporting ALT_SO list, EVRC will be assigned.

Pre-deployment testing - Cas e 2 - with pre-seeded mobiles

Case 2 is before the network is ready for EVRC-B and when there are pre-seededEVRC-B mobiles. EVRC-B service is provided for test mobiles only (and maybe forroamers also), but not for pre-seeded EVRC-B mobiles.

In Case 1, all EVRC-B capable mobiles, including any pre-seeded mobiles, areassigned an EVRC-B vocoder. To prevent EVRC-B vocoder assignments to pre-seededmobiles in Case 2, the ALT_SO list must be turned off. The SOS list should be usedinstead. For Case 2, the following considerations and changes are needed:

1. Mobile setting:

• All EVRC-B non-test mobiles are set to originate EVRC.

• Some EVRC-B test mobiles are set to originate EVRC-B, some to EVRC.

2. ECP setting - for mobiles that originate EVRC-B:

• MSC vocoder support– turn on support of EVRC-B – (setEVRCB field to yes(y) in the ecp form System Vocoder Capability fields).

• Set EVRC-B as first choice vocoder for EVRC-B origination and page responsefields in theecp form.

• System page remains at EVRC (ecp form will not accept EVRC-B).

• Turn on the SOS override capability in theecp form.

3. SOS list - for mobiles originating EVRC:

• Provision SOS list (EVRCB, EVRC, 13K) only for test mobiles (those that originateSO =EVRC only).

• These test mobiles are paged with EVRC-B and set up as EVRC-B.

• These test mobiles originate EVRC and are overridden (by SOS list) to be setup as EVRC-B.

4. Results – for roamer with SOS list = (EVRCB, EVRC, 13K):

• MSC will page the mobile with EVRC-B and set up the call as EVRC-B.

• For EVRC-B or EVRC origination request, EVRC-B will be assigned.

5. Results – for roamer without SOS list:

• MSC will page the mobile with EVRC and set up the call as EVRC.

• If the mobile originates EVRC, the call is set up as EVRC.

• If the mobile originates EVRC-B, the call is set up as EVRC-B.

EVRC-B deployment

Once the network is ready for EVRC-B the following considerations and changes areneeded:

1. Mobile setting:

• Existing mobile or subscriber - no reprogramming or reprovisioning changes arerequired to existing mobiles (13K, EVRC, or EVRC-B pre-seeded mobiles).

• Newly purchased EVRC-B mobiles - can now be programmed to originateEVRC-B (Primary SO =EVRCB).

2. ECP setting:

• MSC vocoder support – set to support of EVRC-B – set theEVRCB field toyes (y) in the ecp form System Vocoder Capability fields.

• MSC default paging – remains EVRC (EVRC-B is not allowed) –Most EVRC mobiles would page respond with SO =0 to an EVRC-B page,just as a 13K mobile responds to an EVRC page with SO =0.

3. If the EVRC-B mobile is programmed to originate as EVRC, one of the followingoptions must be chosen for assigning an EVRC-B vocoder to the mobile. Note, thedetailed procedures for these options can be found in“Overriding an EVRC-Bmobile’s EVRC request: Option 1 = ALT_SO list” (p. 103)and“Overriding anEVRC-B mobile’s EVRC request: Option 2 = SOS list” (p. 110), respectively.

• Option 1: Ask the mobile to report its ALT_SO list:- Turn on theUse Alternate Service Options to Select Vocoder field in theecp form.- Set theMaximum Number of Alternate Service Options field in the ecpform to 1 or greater (also on the cell sectorceqface form when necessary),assuming that EVRC-B is first in the mobile reported ALT_SO list.- Change theMax Access Channel Message Capsule Size (frames) field inthe ecp andceqface forms when deemed necessary. For more information, seeAppendix D, “Maximum Access Channel Message Capsule Sizerecommendation”.- No RC/V changes required on existing mobiles.- Set theAlways Set Up EVRCB Calls field in the ecp3g form to yes (y).When EVRC-B is contained in the ALT_SO list reported by the mobile in theorigination or page response (for example, primary SO =EVRC, ALT_SO =EVRCB, 13K), the MSC always assigns EVRC-B to set up an EVRC-B callregardless of the SOS list orecp form preferred vocoder setting.

Backward compatibility

The following subsections provide information related to the backward compatibility ofthe EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature.

Cell, MSC, packet switch

For backward compatibility, the following operation release restrictions apply:

• Soft handoffs – cell release restriction:

– For EVRC-B to support soft handoff, all cells in the soft handoff universe(could extend to multiple MSCs) have to be on Release 27 or later. Otherwise,the call may drop since adding any pre-R27 cell as a soft handoff leg to anEVRC-B call is blocked.

• Originations - ECP release restriction:

– An EVRC-B origination request will be denied in any pre-Release 26 SU 2ECP.

– An EVRC-B origination request can be set up as EVRC in a Release 26 SU 2ECP.

– An EVRC-B page response will not be induced by paging in a pre-Release 28MSC (because the MSC is not capable of supporting EVRC-B).

• Originations/Terminations – packet switch release restriction:

– In NAR markets, the packet switch has to be on 5E21.1 or later. EVRC-Bcircuit calls are not supported on any earlier release.

– In INTL markets, the packet switch has to be on 5EE17.1 SU 6 or later.EVRC-B circuit calls are not supported on any earlier release.

2G CE

The Channel Element (CE) type impact on the Mode for EVRC-B call set up is shownin the following table:

2. R28 3G cell 2G CE EVRC-B mode 0 mode 0

3. R28 2G cell EVRC-B mode 0 mode 0

Soft Handoff with 2G CEs have the following restriction:

• Adding a 2G CE call leg to an existing EVRC-B call forces all call legs to useforward mode 0 and reverse mode 0 for 2G compatibility (mode 0 does notgenerate quarter rate packets since the 2G standard does not support CRC check forquarter rate packets).

ANSI-41 hard handoff

For backward compatibility, ANSI-41 inter MSC Hard Handoff (with a possible SOchange during inter-MSC hard handoff) has the following restrictions:

• ANSI-41 hard handoff of an EVRC-B call from an EVRC-B Release 28 ECPissupportedas an EVRC call in Release 26 SU 2 and later non-EVRC-B ECPs.

• ANSI-41 hard handoff of an EVRC-B call from an EVRC-B Release 28 ECPis notsupportedfor any pre-Release 26 SU 2 ECPs.

When the target MSC is not ready for EVRC-B, an EVRC-B call from the sourceMSC can be handed off to the target MSC as an EVRC or 13K call. The SO listparameter contained in the ANSI-41FacilityDirective2 message contains a list ofvocoders for the target MSC to choose. The SOs contained in this list are in thefollowing preference order:

1. SO in use

2. primary SO

3. ALT_SO list

4. per subscriber SOS list

Caveat:

• An EVRC-B call from a 2G cell does not support SO change during Inter-MSCHard Handoff, and cannot be handed off to an MSC that does not supportEVRC-B.

Optional provisioning of SOS list

The following subsections provide information related to the optional provisioning ofthe subscriber’s SOS list to support/activate the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature.

Manual provisioning

The SOS list of an EVRC-B mobile can be provisioned via the RC/Vsub form in theIHLR MSC. Or, it can be provisioned viaapxrcv scripting.

Automatic provisioning by the ESOCA feature

The ESOCA feature provides for the automatic initialization and maintenance of thesubscriber’s SOS list. ESOCA does not affect how the subscriber’s SOS list is usedduring the call set up. Instead, it provides a mechanism for ensuring the correctness ofthe SOS list.

When ESOCA is activated [Activate Enhanced Speech Option Selection = y on theecp form, seeFigure 2, “Example ecp form provisioning” (p. 22)], automaticinitialization of a subscriber’s SOS list is attempted if the subscriber’s SOS list iscurrently not available. ESOCA initializes the subscriber’s SOS list by retrieving thesupported service options (SOs) directly from the mobile. The mobile provides this listof service options when receiving a Status Request message from the cell specificallyrequesting the current service options supported by the mobile. The retrieved serviceoptions are then used to initialize the subscriber’s SOS list. A provisionable ECPdefault preference order of vocoders [System Level Speech Option Selection List(Vocoder Preferences) ] is used in determining the order of the service options in thesubscriber’s SOS list when it is initialized.

If a mobile rejects a service option offered by the system from the subscriber’s SOSlist, then the service option is deleted, if present, from the SOS list. A mobile-requestedservice option, if not already present in an active SOS list, is appended to the SOS list.In addition, ESOCA offers the flexibility not to accept the SOS list sent by allANSI-41 neighbors.

When the SO list is received from mobile, the order of the vocoders in the list doesnot have significance. Therefore, the RC/V fields8K, 13K, EVRC, SMV, andEVRCBallow the service provider to dictate the preference order used to rearrange the SO listreceived from mobile before the SOS list is populated by it.

For this particular example,

• if the mobile SO list = (EVRC, EVRCB, 13K), the SOS list will be populated as(EVRCB, EVRC, 13K).

• if the mobile SO list = (13K, EVRC, 8K), the SOS list will be populated as (EVRC,13K, 8K).

Update SOS list via the DBsubquery tool

In addition to the manual method of provisioning the per subscriber SOS list, analternate approach is to use theDBsubquery tool to update the SOS list provisioningfor a specified group of subscribers to support the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature.This approach employs the use of theDBsubquery tool subscriber fieldUpdateCapableoption. For more information about theDBsubquery tool, seeDBsubquery,DBsubsum, and DBsubreport.pl Optional Feature Description,401-612-168.

For additional information on using theDBsubquery tool to update the SOS list tosupport the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature, seeAppendix B, “DBsubquery toolupdate of SOS list provisioning”.

Subscriber perspective

The EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature is transparent to the mobile subscriber.

Service provider perspective

The EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature is controlled by its Feature Activation File(FAF) on a per MSC basis and by its Feature Activation File with Qualifier (QFAF) ona per cell basis.

The EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature helps meet the following need:

• Service providers require an increase in air interface capacity.

RC/V controls are provided for service providers to specify per sector EVRC-B Modein the forward direction and per sector EVRC-B Mode in the reverse direction. Settingthe forward and reverse vocoding modes to different values can further reduce the airinterface capacity imbalance problem (usually the forward link is more congested thanthe reverse link) and maximize the RF capacity gain. Please refer to“Impacts on theRC/V subsystem” (p. 32)and“Implementing the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature”(p. 70) for other service provider controls.

In ANSI-41 handoff, an EVRC-B call can be handed off to EVRC if the target MSCdoes not have EVRC-B vocoders.

RF capacity and voice quality...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Introduction

The section provides information related to the RF capacity and voice quality for theEVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature.

RF capacity estimation procedure

The following items provide an outline of the RF capacity estimation procedure:

• Rate distribution was obtained from lab measurements on standardized speechsamples for each EVRC-B mode.

• EVRC-B speech rate statistics are mapped to reverse link and forward link CDMAfield rate statistics to reflect two-way conversation rate distributions.

• Power fractions for rates below full rate are evaluated separately for the reverseand forward links.

• Reverse link and forward link voice activity factors, which depend on both ratedistributions and power fractions, are evaluated for each mode of EVRC-B.

• Capacity gain (if there is no additional constraint) scales with the voice activityfactor.

– EVRC forward link (FL) capacity is baselined at 26.4 Erlangs and EVRC-B FLgains take into account the RC3 Walsh code constraint.

Additional details can be found in the Alcatel-Lucent white paperAnalysis of ErlangCapacity Gain in 3G-1X Systems Using EVRC-B Vocoder,March 2007.

• Capacity estimates are based on the assumption that all mobiles are EVRC-Bcapable.

– The estimates take into account the RC3 Walsh code limit.

• EVRC and EVRC-B clean speech and noisy subjective tests scores at 1% FrameError Rate (FER).

Summary

Eight modes of EVRC-B operation enable a smooth trade-off between system capacityand voice quality.

• Higher modes of operation provide more system capacity (for Modes 4 and 6 thegains are approximately 16% and 22%, respectively).

• Compared to EVRC, the voice quality of Modes 0 through 5 is either better orsimilar under various operating conditions.

• For Mode 6, the voice quality is slightly below that of EVRC but the difference issmall and may not be perceivable.

• Mode 7 capacity gain is estimated at 24% but its voice quality may have noticeabledegradation from that of EVRC.

Introduction

The EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature interacts with the following features:

• CDMA Multiple Vocoding (MVC)

• CDMA Speech Option Selection (SOS)

• IS-95B Call Setup Service NegotiationNote: In this document and others, this feature is referred to as the AlternateService Option (ALT_SO) feature.

• Transcoder Free Operation and Remote Transcoder Operation (TrFO/RTO)

• TrFO/RTO Support for EVRC-B on FPS (NAR)

MVC feature

The MVC feature operation has been expanded to include the EVRC-B vocoder type.Service providers can use theecp form to specify whether EVRC-B is supported bythe MSC, is the default paging vocoder, or is the first choice or second choice vocoderto be assigned for originations and terminations. For more information about the MVCfeature, seeMultiple Vocoding Based Features-MVC, EVRC, USON Optional FeatureDescription,401-612-115.

When EVRC-B circuit and EVRC TrFO/RTO have to exist in the same system prior toRelease 29 and packet switch Release 5E21.1 FR 1 (or prior to activation of theTrFO/RTO Support for EVRC-B on FPS (NAR) feature), calls involving EVRC-Bmobiles will be handled as follows:

• The TrFO decision is performed after the existing circuit vocoder decision.

• All initial EVRC-B origination assignments will be directed to circuit routes (evenif packet routes exist in the dialing plan). For example, an EVRC originationrequest by an EVRC-B capable mobile could be overridden to EVRC-B (by theAlways Set Up EVRCB Calls ecp3g form parameter setting or by the SOS list)and be directed to circuit routes.

• Packet terminations with an initial EVRC-B assignment will either be redirected tocircuit transport or reassigned to EVRC depending on the service providercontrollable option at the ECP –Optimize TrFO Terminations for EVRC .

For more information about the TrFO/RTO feature, seeTranscoder Free Operation andRemote Transcoder Operation (TrFO/RTO) Planning and Implementation Guide,401-710-093.

TrFO/RTO Support for EVRC-B on FPS (NAR) feature

The TrFO/RTO Support for EVRC-B on FPS (NAR) feature, FID 12371.13, isintroduced with ECP Release 29.0 and packet switch Release 5E21.1 FR 1. The circuitvocoders (CVs) are expanded to include EVRC-B↔PCM (where the↔ symbolrepresents “EVRC-B transition to PCM and vice versa”) along with the existingsupport for EVRC↔PCM and G.711↔PCM. The PHV6 channel density remains at128 channels and a new channel group (CVEVB) is introduced. The packet vocoders(PVs) are expanded to include EVRC-B↔EVRC and EVRC-B↔G.711 along with theexisting support for EVRC↔G.711. The PHV6 channel density is reduced to 64channels and a new channel group (PVEVB) is introduced. Packet frame selectors areprovisionable on the newCVEVB andPVEVB channel groups as well as theEVRCB andEVEVB channel groups introduced in Release 28.0 with the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHVfeature. A new office parameter (DEPLOY EVRC-B ) is provided to determine whetherEVRC-B CVs/PVs are deployed on the packet switch. Due to the lack of approvedSession Initiation Protocol (SIP) and Session Description Protocol standards, theAlcatel-Lucent EVRC-B TrFO implementation is proprietary. Therefore, medianegotiation will be done with the Alcatel-Lucent proprietary codec named EVRCB0.

Other new packet switch parameters for the feature include:DEFAULT MODE andORIG MOBILE SOC . TheDEFAULT MODE parameter is used when an EVRC-Bcircuit or packet vocoder is connected to a packet network but the packet frameselector is on another switch (for example, during remote call progress). TheORIGMOBILE SOC parameter allows the originating MSC to change the originatingmobile’s codec from EVRC-B to EVRC in order to achieve a TrFO configuration.

Additionally, this feature continues to utilize the ECP parameter introduced by theEVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature:Optimize TrFO Terminations for EVRC . Thisparameter introduces changes to the process of selecting a service option for incomingpacket calls to help ensure a TrFO configuration.

Existing packet switch traffic measurements (Sections 172, 173, and 174) arerestructured to include support for EVRC-B. Additionally, two new ECP servicemeasurements are introduced for service option renegotiation.

The TrFO/RTO Support for EVRC-B on FPS (NAR) feature can be activated via theECP FAF as well as the packet switchDEPLOY EVRC-B parameter and packet switchQFID provisioning.

Introduction

If the FAF for the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature is activated and the parameterAppend to the AMA record: Digital Event Module (Module 334) on theecp form isset toy the system will record in the Automatic Message Accounting (AMA)subsystem the EVRC-B SO (SO = 0068, H’0044) for an EVRC-B call. Thisinformation will be recorded in the Digital Event Module (Module 334). The existingEvent Type 002,Initial CDMA Assigned Service Option, in AMA Standard Entry(AMASE) Table 453 will be used and a new Event Description,EVRC-B Voice, hasbeen defined in AMASE Table 497.

The following information describes the impact of the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHVfeature on the AMA subsystem.

Initial CDMA Assigned Service Option field

The EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature adds the following new value to theInitialCDMA Assigned Service Option field. The hexadecimal value for the EVRC-BVocoder on PHV feature is:

Hex Value Represents

0044 EVRC-B Voice

The four-digit hexadecimal code in this field indicates the value of the Initial CDMAAssigned Service Option.

AMASE Table 453

The EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature uses the existing Event Type 002, InitialCDMA Assigned Service Option, in AMASE Table 453. The Binary Coded Decimal(BCD) value for this event type is:

BCD Value Meaning

002 Initial CDMA Assigned Service Option

The Event Type field provides a three-digit code that specifies an AMA event that isto be recorded for billing purposes. This field is present in the Digital Event Moduleand in the Data Module.

For the layout of this field within AMASE Table 453, see Table 4-38 inCDMANetwork Automatic Message Accounting (AMA) Formats Description,401-610-133.

BCD Value Meaning

00068 EVRC-B Voice

For Event Types 002, 010, and 011, which are all CDMA Event Types, theEventDescription field is present in the Digital Event Module. This field contains the valueof the specific event for the encoded Event Type.

For the layout of this field within AMASE Table 497, see Table 4-47 inCDMANetwork Automatic Message Accounting (AMA) Formats Description,401-610-133.

AMA structure codes

The AMA subsystem saves the newINITIAL CDMA ASSIGNED SERVICE OPTIONnumber (68) for the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature to Module 334 - Digital EventModule. The structure codes to which the ECP appends the AMA module (Module 334- Digital Event Module) are shown inTable 19, “AMA structure codes” (p. 58).

Introduction

The following information describes the impact of the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHVfeature on output messages in the Technician Interface (TI).

Output messages

The EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature adds a new variable field definition to thefollowing output message in ECP Release 28.0. The output messages are generated onthe Read-Only Printer (ROP).

• REPT-MCR-CDNThis output message is used to report on a Mobile Call Register (MCR) byExecutive Cellular Processor Call Identification (ECID). It can also be used toreport on AMA long-duration calls or to obtain general information about aparticular call.

The new variable field definition for the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature in theREPT-MCR-CDN output message is listed in the following table.

Variable Field definition

C Service Option for CDMA calls (1 to 5 digits):

• 68 - Enhanced Variable Rate Codec B (EVRC-B).

Figure 15, “Example output message with EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV featureinformation” (p. 63)is an example of an output message report that shows the newfield definition information that the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV provides.

Introduction

The EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature is subject to the following special issues and/orcaveats.

Issues

None.

Caveats

The EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature has the following operational restrictions:

• During the ISPAGE2 Soft Handoff (SHO) scenario, if the anchor MSC has theEVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature, but the border MSC does not support it, the callmay not be set up correctly for an EVRC-B capable mobile.

• When an EVRC-B capable mobile accesses a pre-Release 26 SU 2 MSC, the callmay be rejected if the mobile requested SO is EVRC-B.

• When attempting the Hard Handoff (HHO) of an EVRC-B call to an MSC with asoftware release prior to Release 26 SU 2, the HHO will be rejected.

The service provider may need to evaluate the potential need to change the MaximumAccess Channel Message Capsule Size. For more information, seeAppendix D,“Maximum Access Channel Message Capsule Size recommendation”.

EVRC-B backward compatibility requirements

For the software release and ANSI-41 hard handoff backward compatibilityrequirements, see“Backward compatibility” (p. 19).

Mobile programming – no reprogramming is necessary

Before the network (service provider’s and roaming partners’) is upgraded to Release28 (able to set up an EVRC-B call), EVRC-B capable mobiles should be programmedto Primary SO = EVRC to avoid potential call failure in non-EVRC-B capablenetworks.

Once the service provider’s network and roaming partners’ network are upgraded toRelease 28, all new mobiles can then be programmed, if desired, to originate EVRC-B[see“Programming EVRC-B mobiles for deployment” (p. 100)]. The existing EVRC-Bcapable mobiles that were programmed to request EVRC can now be set up asEVRC-B with one of the following two options:

1. TheAlways Set Up EVRC-B Calls field on theecp3g form is set toy (Yes) andthe mobile reports an alternate service option list that contains EVRC-B.OR

2. A provisioned per subscriber speech option selection list contains EVRC-B as thepreferred service option (this list can also be automatically provisioned by queryingthe mobile for its vocoder list).

Note: Option 1 takes precedence over Option 2. For Option 2 to work, Option 1 mustbe disabled. If neither Option 1 nor 2 above are implemented, an EVRC-B originationrequest will be set up as EVRC, not EVRC-B.

EVRC-B with TrFO/RTO Channel Element (CE) requirement

2G CEs must be replaced with 3G CEs in all MSCs within the soft handoff universebefore the TrFO/RTO Support for EVRC-B on FPS (NAR) feature (FID 12371.13) isactivated. If 2G CEs exist, voice quality may be degraded and calls may drop.

For more information about the TrFO/RTO feature CE requirement, seeTranscoderFree Operation and Remote Transcoder Operation (TrFO/RTO) Planning andImplementation Guide,401-710-093.

Implementing the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Overview

The procedures required to implement the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature dependupon the existing configuration state of the service provider’s network and how theywant their network configured once the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature isimplemented. The EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature implementation options are listedbelow.

Preparations for handling early EVRC-B roamers

For a given MSC before the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature is activated, it ispossible that roamers from another vendor could request an EVRC-B vocoder in theMSC. In this case, it is desirable to set up the call as an EVRC call. It may not bedesirable for the call to fail or to be redirected to analog. The following procedureinsures that an EVRC call will be set up for the EVRC-B roamer requesting EVRC-B.Without implementing this procedure, a roamer requesting EVRC-B could be failed bythe MSC or could be redirected to analog.

Important! This procedure should be completed forall MSCs prior to anyactivation of the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature.

“Provisioning the MSC to handle early EVRC-B roamers” (p. 74)

Preparations for optional pre-deployment testing of the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature

Before the service provider’s entire network is equipped with EVRC-B vocoders andthe EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature, if deemednecessary, pre-deployment testingcan be performed for a selected MSC. The pre-deployment testing would supporttesting of 13K only mobiles, EVRC mobiles, and EVRC-B capable mobiles.

Important! This pre-deployment testing isoptional, it is not mandatory.Pre-deployment testing will allow the service provider to gain some familiarity withthe operation of the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature before deploying the featurein their network.

The EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature requires activation of prerequisite packetswitch and ECP features [see“Feature activation” (p. 7)].

Pre-deployment testing is supported by completing the following procedures insequence:

“Programming early EVRC-B mobiles” (p. 73)

2. “Specifying vocoder modes on a per sector basis” (p. 131)

Deploying the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature

Implementation of the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature does not require the serviceprovider to activate this feature on all MSCs in their network at the same time, orwithin a specified time frame. The EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature can be activatedon each MSC independently.

Important! The EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature requires activation ofprerequisite packet switch and ECP features [see“Feature activation” (p. 7)].

Prior to deploying the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature, the“Backwardcompatibility” (p. 19)section should be reviewed.

To implement the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature, perform the following proceduresin sequence:

Programming early EVRC-B mobiles...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Purpose

This procedure provides the recommended provisioning for mobiles that are equippedwith EVRC-B vocoders before the network is equipped with EVRC-B vocoders andthe EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature.

Procedure

Perform the following step:

...................................................................................................................................................................................................

1 The early EVRC-B mobiles should be programmed to originate EVRC for backwardscompatibility.

Otherwise, EVRC-B origination requests may fail in the MSC which does not yetsupport EVRC-B vocoders. There is no need to reprogram the mobile when thenetwork becomes EVRC-B ready.

Note: Once an MSC is EVRC-B ready, the EVRC request from an EVRC-Bmobile can be overridden to EVRC-B by one of the following two options:

1. ALT_SO list

2. SOS list

Pre-deployment testing: Option 1 = ALT_SO list...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Purpose

This procedure provides provisioning information to support pre-deployment testing forthe EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature. Since pre-deployment testing will varydepending upon the network configuration and mobile availability, general provisioningguidelines are provided instead of detailed procedures.

During this pre-deployment testing phase, it may be desirable to limit the setting up ofEVRC-B calls to test mobiles only, but not on pre-seeded mobiles. There are twooptions for achieving this objective.

• Option 1 uses the mobile reported ALT_SO list, and is applicable for the test casewhere there are no pre-seeded EVRC-B mobiles. In this case, the EVRC-B capablemobiles are the test mobiles. For non-test mobiles, there are no EVRC-B homersbut there could be EVRC-B roamers.

• Option 2 uses the provisioned per subscriber SOS list, and is applicable for the testcase where there are many pre-seeded EVRC-B mobiles. Option 1 will assign anEVRC-B vocoder to all EVRC-B capable mobiles, including pre-seeded ones. Toavoid assigning EVRC-B vocoders to pre-seeded mobiles, in Option 2 the ALT_SOlist must be turned off and the SOS list should be used instead.

Important! Without ALT_SO list (Option 1) or SOS list (Option 2) provisioning, amobile’s EVRC request cannot be overridden to EVRC-B.

This procedure provides provisioning information for Option 1, which uses the mobilereported ALT_SO list.

...................................................................................................................................................................................................

24 Change theMax Access Channel Message Capsule Size (frames) field in theecpandceqface forms when deemed necessary.

• For more information, seeAppendix D, “Maximum Access Channel MessageCapsule Size recommendation”.

• This field be set to 6 frames, at a minimum, for all 3G systems.

• If changes are needed, see“Setting the Maximum Access Channel MessageCapsule Size on a per ECP basis” (p. 139)and“Setting the Maximum AccessChannel Message Capsule Size on a per sector basis” (p. 143).

...................................................................................................................................................................................................

25 The mobile’s reported ALT_SO list has been provisioned to perform the EVRC-Boverride.

Note: No RC/V changes or reprogramming is required on existing EVRC-Bmobiles. The existing EVRC-B mobiles should have been programmed to originateEVRC for backwards compatibility.

Results: For homer testing with EVRC-B mobile:

• Mobiles that request EVRC-B in origination will be assigned EVRC-B.

• Mobiles that request EVRC in origination and report EVRC-B in their ALT_SOlist will be assigned EVRC-B.

• Mobile will be paged by EVRC, respond with EVRC, report EVRC-B in theirALT_SO list, and will be assigned EVRC-B.

For a roaming EVRC-B mobile (coming from non-home MSC) with or without anSOS list:

• Same results as homer test mobiles.

...................................................................................................................................................................................................

26 Execute various call origination and termination scenarios using non-EVRC-B mobiles,EVRC-B mobiles not used as “test mobiles”, and EVRC-B test mobiles. Verify that thecalls are set up with the proper vocoder types depending on the configuration of themobiles used for each call.

Important! After pre-deployment testing is complete the provisioning of theEVRC-B test mobiles, ECP, and EVRC-B test mobile ALT_SO list provisioningneeds to be reevaluated and possibly reprovisioned in order to insure that thesystem operates as desired.

Result: Use of the ALT_SO list is disabled for the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHVfeature for the specified ECP.

The SOS list override of a mobile’s request is enabled for the specified ECP tosupport the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature.

...................................................................................................................................................................................................

21 The SOS list provisioning required for an EVRC-B test mobile = (EVRCB, EVRC 13K).

Choose one of the following four options to provision the SOS list:

• sub form manual provisioning. For more information, see“Provisioning the persubscriber SOS list for the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature” (p. 147).

• Use anapxrcv script.

• Use theDBsubquery tool for batch provisioning. For more information, seeAppendix B, “DBsubquery tool update of SOS list provisioning”.

• Turn on the ESOCA capability (ecp form) to automatically provision all subscribers(that have no SOS list yet) with the SO list that is retrieved from the mobile andre-sequenced via theecp form ESOCA preference order. For more information, see“Enabling the ESOCA capability to provision the SOS list on a per ECP basis”(p. 153).

Results: The test mobiles with SOS list = (EVRCB, EVRC, 13K) will be paged withEVRC-B and set up as EVRC-B. They will originate EVRC and be overridden (bythe SOS list) to be set up as EVRC-B.

For a roamer with SOS list = (EVRCB, EVRC, 13K), the MSC will page the mobilewith EVRC-B and set up the call as EVRC-B. For either an EVRC-B or EVRCorigination request, EVRC-B will be assigned.

For a roamer without an SOS list, the MSC will page the mobile with EVRC andset up the call as EVRC. If the mobile originates EVRC, it will be set up asEVRC. If the mobile originates EVRC-B, it will set up as EVRC-B.

...................................................................................................................................................................................................

22 Execute various call origination and termination scenarios using non-EVRC-B mobiles,EVRC-B mobiles not used as “test mobiles”, and EVRC-B test mobiles. Verify that thecalls are set up with the proper vocoder types depending on the configuration of themobiles used for each call.

Important! After pre-deployment testing is complete the provisioning of theEVRC-B test mobiles, ECP, and EVRC-B test mobile SOS list provisioning needsto be reevaluated and possibly reprovisioned in order to insure that the systemoperates as desired.

Programming EVRC-B mobiles for deployment...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Purpose

This procedure provides the recommended provisioning for EVRC-B capable mobilesfor deployment. The service provider should choose the proper mobile provisioningbased on their market need, their own network capability, and their roaming partner’snetwork capability.

Procedure

Perform the following step:

...................................................................................................................................................................................................

1 Perform the appropriate action depending on the mobile:

If the mobile is { then {

an existing mobile/subscriber no per subscriber RC/V changes arerequired and no reprogramming of themobile is required.

a new EVRC-B mobile1, 2, 3 choose one of the following options:

1. program the mobile to originateEVRC.

An EVRC request will not fail in anyMSC. The mobile could receive EVRCor EVRC-B service depending on theMSC capability.

2. program the mobile to originateEVRC-B.

An EVRC-B request could fail inMSCs that do not support EVRC-B (forexample, in a pre-Release 26 SU 2Alcatel-Lucent MSC).

Notes:

1. When in doubt, program the mobile to originate EVRC.

2. Once deployed, the mobile does not need to be re-programmed.

3. Once deployed, re-programming cannot be performed via Over-The-Air ParameterAdministration (OTAPA).

Note: The EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature is controlled by a Feature ActivationFile with Qualifier (QFAF). The Qualifier limits the number of cell sites that theEVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature can be active on at any given time. The serviceprovider is able to activate the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature for any numberof cell sites up to the QFAF maximum.

The EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature QFAF cell site control is theCDMA EVRCBfield on thecell2 form.

Overriding an EVRC-B mobile’s EVRC request: Option 1 =ALT_SO list...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Purpose

This procedure provides instructions for overriding a mobile’s EVRC request in aCDMA Network.

There are two options for the system to override an EVRC request coming from anEVRC-B capable mobile (in the origination or page response message). This wouldapply to any EVRC-B mobile (mainly, the pre-seeded mobiles) programmed tooriginate EVRC.

• Option 1 uses the mobile reported ALT_SO list. This option overrides the mobile’sEVRC request and assign EVRC-B regardless of the mobile’s SOS list setting(except that an activated but empty SOS list can block all voice call requests). Ifthe mobile does not report its ALT_SO list (normally this should not happen), thecall will be set up as EVRC. Option 1 is recommended and takes precedence overOption 2. Only if Option 1 is undesirable, should Option 2 be considered.

• Option 2 uses the provisioned per subscriber SOS list. In Option 2, the ALT_SOlist must be turned off and the SOS list should be used instead.


This procedure provides provisioning information for Option 1, which uses the mobilereported ALT_SO list.

Default = 1

Forward Vocoder Mode: EVRCB

(See Note 1.)

fwd_evrcb_mode 0 or greater 0 through7

Default = 0

Reverse Vocoder Mode: EVRCB

(See Note 1.)

rev_evrcb_mode 0 or greater 0 through7

Default = 0

Notes:

1. These fields also exist on theceqface3g form to allow provisioning on a per cell sector basis. The percell sector value on theceqface3g form, if populated, overrides theecp3g form value.

Provisioning the per subscriber SOS list for the EVRC-BVocoder on PHV feature...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Purpose

This procedure uses the RC/Vsub form to provision the per subscriber SOS list(EVRCB, EVRC, 13K) for EVRC-B mobiles that are programmed to originate EVRC. Thisprovisioning is done on a per subscriber basis to support the EVRC-B Vocoder onPHV feature.

The main purpose of this procedure is to override the mobile’s EVRC request to beEVRC-B.

The DBsubquery tool could be used in place of this procedure to update the persubscriber SOS list in the master database (after verifying the changes in the backupdatabase). For additional information on using theDBsubquery tool to update the SOSlist to support the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature, seeAppendix B, “DBsubquerytool update of SOS list provisioning”. For more information about theDBsubquerytool, seeDBsubquery, DBsubsum, and DBsubreport.pl Optional Feature Description,401-612-168.

Fields to populate

The fields to be populated in thesub form are described inTable 35, “Fields to bepopulated in the sub form” (p. 147).

Packet switch support of EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Feature Identifier (FID)

A unique Feature Identifier (FID) is assigned to each feature. The following listidentifies the packet switch FIDs for the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature:

• FID 12371.12, EVRC-B SH (NAR)This feature is available with packet switch software release 5E21.1.

• FID 12371.11, INTL EVRC-B SHThis feature is available with packet switch software release 5EE17.1 SU 6.

PHV resources

EVRC-B is supported simultaneously with EVRC on existing packet switch PHVhardware (PHV5 and PHV6). The EVRC-B SH features introduce two new channelgroup types on the PHV5 and PHV6:EVRCB andEVEVB. Note,EVEVB represents thesupport of both EVRC and EVRC-B vocoders. In addition, two new Digital SignalProcessor (DSP) Optional Data Region (ODR) images were created to support thesenew channel groups:V5DEVRCB (for PHV5) andV6DEVRCB (for PHV6).

Speech handler provisioning

EVRC-B trunk groups are provisioned similar to other trunk groups. The followinginformation describes the speech handler provisioning for the EVRC-B Vocoder onPHV feature in both the NAR and INTL markets.

NAR markets

On RC View 5.1, theSERV TYPE field has been expanded to includeEVRCB andEVEVB.

Before insertingEVRCB or EVEVB trunk members, licensed PHVVOICE resources mustbe provisioned and available. If no resources (channels) are available, no additionalchannels can be provisioned through RC View 5.5. For more information, see theQuantified Feature Identification (QFID) provisioning information in the5ESS® SwitchFlexent®/AUTOPLEX® Wireless Networks Applications OA&M Manual,235-200-100.

INTL markets

On RC View 4.1, theSERV TYPE field has been expanded to includeEVRCB andEVEVB.

Before insertingEVRCB or EVEVB trunk members, licensed PHVVOICE resources mustbe provisioned and available. If no resources (channels) are available, no additionalchannels can be provisioned through RC View 4.3.

Speech handler hunting

The following information describes the speech handler hunting for the EVRC-BVocoder on PHV feature in both the NAR and INTL markets.

NAR markets

EVRC-B trunk hunting follows the existing speech handler trunk hunting rules. Up to7 Packet Switch Units (PSUs) are hunted: first the Packet Pipe (PP)/Internet ProtocolBackhaul (IPBH) PSU, followed by 3 other PSUs and then 3 more PSUs with up to 10trunk groups per PSU group or a total of 30 trunk groups.

For an EVRC call, the speech handler hunting order is as follows:

1. Speech handler trunk group with service type ofEVRC.

2. Speech handler trunk group with service type ofCEV13 (supports both EVRC and13K).

3. Speech handler trunk group with service type ofEVEVB (supports both EVRC andEVRC-B).

For an EVRC-B call, the speech handler hunting order is:

1. Speech handler trunk group with service type ofEVRCB.


For a 13K call, the speech handler hunting order is:

1. Speech handler trunk group with service type of13K.


INTL markets

EVRC-B trunk hunting follows the existing speech handler trunk hunting rules. Up to13 Packet Switch PSUs are hunted: first the PP/IPBH PSU, followed by 6 other PSUsand then 6 more PSUs with up to 10 trunk groups per PSU group or a total of 30trunk groups.

For multiple SHTG hunting on a PSU, Routing and Terminal Allocation (RTA) huntsthe SHTGs per service type.

For an EVRC call, the speech handler hunting order is as follows:

1. Speech handler trunk group with service type ofEVRC.



4. Speech handler trunk group with service type ofEV13IS (supports EVRC, 13K, andInter System Link Protocol [ISLP]).

Traffic measurements impact

The following summarizes the traffic measurements impact for the packet switchEVRC-B SH features.

EVRC-B SH (NAR) feature (FID 12371.12)

The EVRC-B SH (NAR) feature introduces one new 30 Minute Traffic Report(TRFC30) measurement: Section 70 (SHTG). This report is used for combo trunkgroups such asCEV13 andEVEVB. The report indicates incoming and outgoing attempts,incoming and outgoing usage and overflow on a per algorithm (EVRC, EVRC-B, and13K) basis.

Four existing TRFC30 sections are also impacted.

• Section 246 (VOCODER) -EVRCB was added as a valid Vocoder Type.

• Section 247 (ECPSRVT) -EVRCB was added as a valid Service Type.

• Section 12 (TG) - data is provided onEVRCB andEVEVB trunk groups.

• Section 212 (TGN) - data is provided onEVRCB andEVEVB trunk groups.

INTL EVRC-B SH feature (FID 12371.11)

The INTL EVRC-B SH feature introduces one new C-Interval report: SPEECHHANDLER TRUNK GROUP (SHTG). This report is used for combo trunk groupssuch asCEV13 andEVEVB. The report indicates incoming and outgoing attempts,incoming and outgoing usage and overflow on a per algorithm (EVRC, EVRC-B, and13K) basis.

Three existing C-Interval reports are also impacted.

• TRUNK GROUP COMPONENT (TGCOMP) - supports newEVRCB andEVEVBSHTG types.

• WIRELESS SUMMARY (WRLSSUM) -EVRCB was added as a valid VocoderType.

• EXECUTIVE CELLULAR PROCESSOR SERVICE TYPE (ECPSRVT) -EVRCBwas added as valid Service Type.

DBsubquery provisioning of the SOS list to support EVRC-Bmobiles...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Introduction

This procedure provides an example for using theDBsubquery tool to update the SOSlist provisioning to support the EVRC-B Vocoder on PHV feature. For moreDBsubquery information specifically related to EVRC-B, refer toAppendix A: Table 4andAppendix B: Table 20in DBsubquery, DBsubsum, and DBsubreport.pl OptionalFeature Description,401-612-168.

Example procedure

The DBsubquery tool actually supports the following SOS list vocoder-related fields:pref_ev , pref_evb , pref_8k , pref_13k , pref_smv , andsos_avail . TheDBsubquerytool can be used to query, display, and update these field values. An example procedurefor the provisioning of new EVRC-B mobiles is shown in the following steps.

Provisioning considerations

When provisioning new mobiles (where all SOS list fields by default equal zero), onlyspecifying values higher than 0 is sufficient.

When reprovisioning, remember the following dependency between the SOS list fields:

• Generally, whenn of 5 Vocoder Preferences (from the group 8K, 13K, EVRC,EVRC-B, or SMV) are populated, the unique integer values 1 ton must be used.This means that the preference sequence of the five vocoders must always startwith 1, and the preference list of1,3; 2; 2,3; 3; 4; 1,1; 2,2; 1,2,2,3; andso on -is not allowed. TheDBsubquery tool will display error messages and doesnot allow an update of such records. The best practice for this case is to specifyvalues for all five vocoders (based on the rules), so the new values do notaccidentally break the preference list order of the other vocoders.

Maximum Access Channel Message Capsule Sizerecommendation...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Overview

The size of the origination or page response message is a function of variousparameters. Turning on the Alternate Service Option (ALT_SO) lengthens theorigination and page response message. The larger size of the origination or pageresponse message requires an increase of the Maximum Access Channel MessageCapsule Size, in number of frames.

Maximum Access Channel Message Capsule Size parameter value

The value of the RC/VMax Access Channel Message Capsule Size (frames) fieldis represented as:= MAX_CAP_SZ + 3, whereMAX_CAP_SZ (in upper case letters) is aparameter defined in the CDMA air interface standard.

The text RC/V name for theMax Access Channel Message Capsule Size (frames)field is max_cap_sz (in lower case letters).

Therefore, the RC/V text parametermax_cap_sz is equal to the CDMA standardMAX_CAP_SZ parameter value plus three.

max_cap_sz = MAX_CAP_SZ + 3

When a value is entered for the RC/V text parameter (max_cap_sz), the actual CDMAstandard value (MAX_CAP_SZ) is the entered value minus 3. For example, if a value of 6is entered for the RC/V text parameter, the actual CDMA standard value is 3.

Recommendation

Assumptions:

1. IMSI off - assume that the system is broadcasting the network escape code(11111111111111111) in theESPM for MCC and IMSI_11_12. If the IMSI is on,this will cause the Access Channel Message to consume the equivalent of 4 of theDTMF digits supported.

2. Mobile supports DCCH - DCCH is the channel that would have been used for3G-1X VP2 Simultaneous Voice and Data Service (VP2). The system does notsupport VP2, but the mobile is required to indicate whether it supports the DCCHwhenever it sends an origination or page response. Supporting DCCH will causethe Access Channel Message to consume the equivalent of 5 of the DTMF digitssupported.

Based on the assumptions listed, the recommended settings are as follows:

• If OP_P_REV = 6, the system operates at IS-2000 Rev 0

– Capsule size = 6 frames (max_cap_sz = 6, while MAX_CAP_SZ = 3), num_alt_so= 1, DTMF dialed up to 18 digits

• If OP_P_REV = 7, the system operates at IS-2000 Rev A

– Capsule size = 7 frames (max_cap_sz = 7, while MAX_CAP_SZ = 4), num_alt_so= 1 or 2, DTMF dialed up to 32 digits

– An increase in the capsule size from 6 frames to 7 frames is required to supportIS-2000 Rev A (this increase is not a specific EVRC-B requirement).

If the capsule size is set to 7 frames, this setting would result in 11.1% fewer accessslots per unit time. Since access collisions are more likely to occur with fewer slots,the increase will generally be slightly more than the 11.1%. High access occupancy hasbeen shown to cause an increase in origination and termination failures due to call setup delay.

For more details, refer to the IS-2000 upper layer signaling standard.
