Feature OverviewThe request from T-Mobile

Request from T-Mobile:

in relation with the swap of Motorola BSS (to ALU BSS B9) . T-Mobile observes an higher ALU BTS output power than with Motorola, and does not want to emit higher than with Motorola.

But as the granularity of BS_TXPWR_MAX is 2dB, ALU TRE emitted power could then become significantly lower than Motorola.

The Request of T-Mobile is to finely tune the power level at cell level.

Feature Definition :

3BKA55CBR252615 Adjust of BTS power level from OMCR (B11 version)

cell power attenuation by step of 0,1 dB ( for all TRE of the cell ).

Feature OverviewPrinciple

principle : The cell power attenuation is done

On any type of cell, at a resolution of 0.1dB

For a concentric cell, attenuation is done independently on inner and outer zone

This will be done by following parameters on OMC HMI BS_TXPWR_ATTENUATION_INNER define power reduction, in 0.1dB

Applied on the TRX(s) of the Inner zone of a concentric cell.

BS_TXPWR_ATTENUATION define power reduction, in 0.1dB Applied on the TRX(s) of the outer zone of a a concentric cell Applied on the TRX(s) of a normal cell

Note: Although defined in 0.1dB, the applied attenuation can vary up to 0.15dB.

Feature Overview GMSK & 8PSK power

As a general rule (ALU BSS) , cell power attenuation applies only on the GMSK signal.

as generally the power available for 8PSK is lower than the one available with GMSK. The back-off power of 8PSK is reduced (see Annex : HSDS Synthesis impact ).

8PSK power levelling ( down to GMSK Power )

BTS internaly level 8PSK power down to GMSK Power as in under example

Example :

TRE power before power attenuation : GMSK power = 45.44 dBm , 8PSK power = 44.76 dBm

power attenuation = 1.2 dB

GMSK power after power attenuation = 45.44 dBm - 1.2 dB = 44.24 dBm ( < 8PSK, 44.76 dBm )

TRE power after power attenuation : GMSK power = 44.24 dBm = 8PSK power = 44.24 dBm

BTS has reduce 8PSK power down to GMSK Power

Feature OverviewCell type : normal cell

for Cell type : normal cell , no ‘unbalanced TRX output power’

The attenuation apply on top of the levelling, thus decreasing the RA output power.

OMU performs the levelling on all the TRE, i.e. lines down possibly the emitted power in order that the power, as measured on TOC (Top Of Cabinet) is the same whatever the TRE.

Feature Overview Cell type : shared cell

for Cell type : shared cell , no ‘unbalanced TRX output power’

attenuation apply on top of the levelling as follows.

Note : A shared cell is a cell handled by 2 BTS

On the main cell

OMU applies attenuation as : GMSK Output power after attenuation = ‘Max_GMSK_GSM – BS_TXPWR_ATTENUATION ’ Max_GMSK_GSM is the output power after BTS levelling

On the secondary cell

GMSK Output power after attenuation of main sector,

is the target power to be reach by each TRX The SUM board compute attenuation for each TRX, to reach targeted power

In case that one TRX cannot reach the targeted power – the SUM board raise BTS-alarm : Class 3 "SW-AN Alarms",  Type 14 "Wrong-

Configuration", Alarm Number 10,  severity "Minor (DMA)“– Traffic possible, that only one TRE cannot reach targeted power

Alcatel-Lucent – InternalProprietary – Use pursuant to Company instruction.

Migration RulesOMC migration

During OMC migration, the related feature parameters are migrated as well.

If the migration is done from a B10 OMC not implementing this feature ( any B10 release excluding B10 MR2 Ed6 ),

In the intermediate phase where OMC is in B11 and some BSC are in B10

the user will be allowed to use PWR_ADJUSTMENT (B10) and T3106_D/T3106_F trick for the B10 cells.

but this will be without any effect at equipment level (except the modification of T3106_D/T3106_F values) because the B10 BSC does not contain the feature.

Feature AssessmentFO T-Mobile : Issue found

3BKA45FBR289142EME ( Electromagnetic Emission) indicators representing the Absolute BCCH power at BTS antenna has wrong valueEME_absolute_Power(GRMEEPWADN)(dBm), RMS_DL_Power_max_900 ( GRMSEBPWGN )EME_absolute_Power_Watt(GRMEEPWAN)(Watts)

Analysis A regression introduced on some EME indicator by new coding needed for this feature

Status : correction planned B11MR1ED2

3BKA45FBR291086Change done in BS_TXPWR_ATTENUATION is not reflected in EME & RM

Analysis

after we change BS_TXPWR_ATTENUATION from 0 to 0.1dbm, ( even from 0 to 0.5 dbm ) we did not see any change on indicator representing the Absolute BCCH power at BTS antenna. EME_absolute_Power (GRMEEPWADN), RMS_DL_Power_max_900(GRMSEBPWGN),.

Note : this pb does not concern EME radiated power indicator, EME_Power_GSM(GRMEEPWGDN)(dBm)

Status : under Analysis, (could be linked to 3BKA45FBR289142)

Conclusion

The feature has been tested as follow

Functionnal test on FOA Velizy platform, OK Check of Power attenuation step of 0.1 Dbm with a power meter on TRE

No regression test on FO T-Mobile OK Migration of parameter BS_TXPWR_ATTENUATION is correct Migration of parameter BS_TXPWR_ATTENUATION_Inner could not be

checked ( as there was no Concentric cell in the test area ) Small change of Power attenuation does not affect KPIs, and EME, RMS

But we found the following issues : No blocking 3BKA45FBR291086 & 3BKA45FBR289142

Which concerns only indicators related to Absolute BCCH power at BTS antenna, ( other EME indicator like EME radiated power indicator, EME_Power_GSM(GRMEEPWGDN)(dBm) are not affected.

Conclusion : This feature is working correctly in B11 MR1Ed1.0

Annex : Unbalanced output power

Unbalanced output power summary : for concentric Cell

Principle :

useful for concentric cells, with higher TRX output power for the outer zone.

balancing of the TRX power is done independently in inner and outer zones.

Remove the balancing of the TRX power between inner and outer zone.

Allow maximum TRX output power on outer zone.

Back to Feature Overview Cell type : concentric cell

Annex : O&M Abis interface impact

O&M Abis interface

The fields representing the powers within the BTS HW config data will be coded in

0.1dBm with an offset 300 (eq. 0.1dBW) for the BTSs belonging to B11 27/05

and later BSCs. As the powers of our BTS are between 38 and 47/48 dBm, they

fit in one byte when coded with the new rule.

The impacted fields are those having the type TxPowerLevel: HwCapabilityInfo-FU.GmskPowerCapablity, HwCapabilityInfo-FU.8pskPowerCapability, HwCapabilityInfo-RA.MaxPowerPerSectorGSM, HwCapabilityInfo-RA.MaxPowerPerSectorDCS, HwCapabilityInfo-CU.txPowerLevel.
