2 1 Traffic MeasurementThe BSC traffic measurement registers information related to the stand alone dedicated control channels (SDCCH) and traffic channels (TCH). The BSC traffic measurement counters are divided into different classes. There are counters regarding the number of attempts to seize TCHs and SDCCHs, successful calls, lengths of the queue, the reasons for Failures and GPRS territory counters. This measurement collects one set of results for each BTS. Signalling charts are drawn with the accuracy of message inter-face.

3.1 001000 / SEIZURE ATTEMPTS

3.2 001001 / SEIZURE ATTEMPTS WITH BUSY SDCCH

Counter ID: 001000 Network element name: SEIZURE ATTEMPTS

Version: 3.0 NetAct name: SDCCH_SEIZ_ATT

Description: Number of times when an MS attempts to seize an SDCCH.

Updated: When the RRM receives requests for SDCCH from an MS as the MS needs a channel for either a call or a HO.

See figures: - Basic call with counters- FACCH call setup due to SDCCH congestion with counters - FACCH call setup due to SDCCH congestion, no free TCH channel - SDCCH congestion, FACCH call setup is not activated - Successful SDCCH internal intra-cell handover - Successful SDCCH internal inter-cell handover - Successful SDCCH external handover target - Reconfiguration from TCH to SDCCH

Counter ID: 001001 Network element name: SEIZURE ATTEMPTS WITH BUSY SDCCH

Version: 3.0 NetAct name: SDCCH_BUSY_ATT

Description: Number of times when an MS attempts to seize an SDCCH but the attempt is unsuccessful because all SDCCHs are busy. This counter does not neces-sarily mean that the call attempt is lost, because the call may be established as an FACCH call setup using TCH instead of SDCCH. This counter is not triggered when the TCH reconfiguration is attempted because of dynamic SDCCH allocation. If the attempt fails, the SDCCH_busy_attempt is triggered together with 1155 UNSUCC_IMM_ASS_SDCCH_ATTEMPT.

Reasons that trigger the counter: - Phantom RACHs that have a valid establishment cause. - The BTS can hear the MS, but the MS cannot hear the BTS, and so the MS does not respond to the IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT message with a SABM. - MS is accessing the network at the limit of sensitivity and messages are lost. - Poor Radio conditions. - MS is accessing network through another BTS (co-channel, co-BSIC interference).

See figures: - Unsuccessful SDCCH activation, timer expires while waiting for CHANNEL_ACTIVATION_ACK message - Unsuccessful SDCCH activation, timer expires while waiting for PHYSICAL_CONTEXT_CONFIRM message - TRX/TSL is blocked with different causes during an SDCCH channel activation

The signalling problems may include missing acknowledgement of channel activation, missing indication of call establishment, receipt of an error indication, corrupted mes-sages, missing measurement results from the BTS, excessive timing advance or some internal reasons. These failures can also contain situations when the timer T3109 expires in a BSC in call release phase while waiting for the Release Indication. The MS subscriber does not see these failures caused by the T3109 expiry as real drop calls.

Updated: When a TCH transaction ends because of signalling problems in the Abis interface and the RRM releases the TCH.

Triggered for example when a dynamic SDCCH allocation (1154 DYNAMIC_SDCCH_RECONFIGURATION_ATTEMPT) is tried but it fails. Failure can be caused for example by the following situations.

- In the BCSU there cannot be more SDCCH allocated. - All TCHs are busy and cannot be reallocated. - RRM has reconfigured a TCH to SDCCH but ABI cannot do the same. In this case the dynamic SDCCH seized by RRM is released with cause rtsl_reconf_fail and the call attempt fails (blocking).

PCU can initiate GPRS resource downgrade to additional GPRS resources. For example, when PCU has previously requested GPRS territory upgrade and addi-tional channels has been given for GPRS use. When there is no more need for addi-tonal GPRS capacity PCU requests for downgrade, the additional channels are removed from GPRS territory and this counter is triggered.

Downgrade is made to align the source side AMR codec set with the one chosen for the target side in order to utilize the one-way downlink speech path connection for the target side during the internal HO. The utili-zation of one-way downlink speech path connection decreases the amount of muting experienced in the speech path connection. Downgrade decision during internal HO depends on the parameter AMR codec mode set downgrades and upgrades enabled.

Counter ID: 001251 Network element name: TIME OF WB-AMR CALLS

Version: 1.0 NetAct name: TIME_OF_AMR_WB_CALLS

Description: Number of times in a second when WB-AMR calls are active in the cell.

Updated: The BSC keeps record of the time the speech codec version 5 (WB-AMR) that is used.

The time is updated to counter when BSC receives the CHANNEL MODE MODIFY ACK message where WB-AMR changes to another codes or the channel is released. Because the call can be longer than measurement period, counter of one measure-ment period can show longer value than the expected while counter of another mea-surement period shows value that seems to be low.

When values are considered the daily basis allocation time does not exceed the total time of the measurement periods.

Updated: When a TCH transaction ends because of a transcoder failure during a call attempt or handover and the speech codec version 5 (WB-AMR) is in use.

In case of call attempt, transaction failures can also happen in a situation when the timer T3109 expires in a BSC in call release phase while waiting for the Release Indi-cation. The MS subscriber does not see these failures caused by the T3109 expiry as real drop calls.
