Counter definition:
Number of TCH (in HR or FR usage) drops due to BSS problem during any TCH handover preparation and
execution phases.
This counter is incremented on the cell on which the problem occurs(In the case of internal inter-cell handovers, it
is not incremented on both serving and target cell). For problems that are not related to a specific cell, the counter
related to the serving cell will be incremented.
It may happen that several causes of failures mentioned below are detected consecutively. In that case, the
counter will only be incremented once, as soon as the handover procedure fails.
This counter takes into account handovers from TCH in traffic or in signaling mode.
Trigger condition:
1) Whenever the BSC receives on Abis interface from the target cell negative acknowledgment to the TCH
channel
activation involved in the handover procedure.
2) Whenever the timer supervising the Channel Activation procedure (T9103) expires on the target cell during
activation of a TCH channel involved in the handover procedure.
3) Whenever an 48.058 ERROR REPORT message with a cause value of "O&M intervention" is received on Abis

received on Abis interface on the old channel between the sending of the 48.058 CHANNEL ACTIVATION
message and the reception of the 48.058 CHANNEL ACTIVATION ACKNOWLEDGE during the internal intra-cell
TCH handover and leads to a transaction failure.
7) Whenever a LAPD failure related to either serving or target cell is reported to the Layer 3 of the BSC (for an
RSL supporting a TCH transaction for handover purpose) and leads to a transaction failure.
8) Whenever an TCH handover abortion is initiated by the BSS O&M FAULT MANAGEMENT application part or
by the BSS TELECOM application part as the result of a system defense action which may be due to BSS
equipment failures external to the BSC (e.g. RSL failure or CU recovery failure), or due to BSC internal hardware
problems (e.g. TCU failure or DTC failure) or due to BSC internal software problems (e.g. inconsistencies
detected
between software modules or lack of software resources (memory, timer reference, file reference...) or
communication problems between different processor boards).
9) Whenever a 48.058 CONNECTION FAILURE INDICATION message with a cause value of "remote transcoder
failure" is received on Abis interface from the old channel between the sending of the 48.058 CHANNEL
ACTIVATION message and the reception of the 48.058 CHANNEL ACTIVATION ACKNOWLEDGE during an
internal intra-cell or inter-cellTCH handover procedure and leads to a transaction failure.
Notes :
1. TCH handover failures which are due to O&M operator actions on BTS or BSC should not be counted. Indeed,

Counter definition:
Number of TCHs assigned in the serving cell for which TFO has been successfully established.
Trigger condition:
For each assigned TCH, the counter is incremented the first time a 48.058 TFO REPORT message is received by
the BSC, indicating that TFO is established (i.e. TFO = 1 in the TFO Status IE).
Note 1: This counter shall be incremented only once per assigned TCH (i.e. the first time it is received for the
assigned TCH).
Note 2: A TCH is seen as assigned in the serving cell between the sending of 48.058 CHANNEL ACTIVATION
message and the receipt of the 48.058 RF CHANNEL RELEASE message. This means that the counter can be
incremented either if the TCH is assigned to serve a normal assignment or if the TCH is assigned to serve an
incoming internal (inter-cell or intra-cell) or external handover.

Number of TCH (in HR or FR usage) normal assignment preparation failures because of the non-queuing of the
ASSIGNMENT REQUEST message.
Case: 48.008ASSIGNMENT REQUEST on TCH (in HR or FR usage) is received when no TCH is available in the
cell. The request is rejected (by 48.008ASSIGNMENT FAILURE, cause: "no radio resource available"), because
the queuing procedure is either:
1) disabled within the BSC (i.e. (T11=0 and QUEUE_ANYWAY=0), OR (T11_forced=0 and
QUEUE_ANYWAY=1)), or
2) enabled within the BSC, i.e. T11 <> 0, but not requested by the MSC when QUEUE_ANYWAY=0.
Trigger condition:
The counter is incremented upon the sending of 48.008ASSIGNMENT FAILURE (cause: "no radio resource
available") for a TCH channel because no TCH is available and either the queing is disabled in the BSC (T11=0
and QUEUE_ANYWAY=0, or T11_forced=0 and QUEUE_ANYWAY=1), or the queing is enabled,
QUEUE_ANYWAY=0, and the MSC does not request a queuing.

Note 2: In MX BSC, this counter is incremented whenever a 48.008ASSIGNMENT FAILURE (cause: "no radio
resource available") is sent to the MSC due to the TCH processing capacity of CCP reaches the limit defined by
the MAX_TCH_PER_CCP parameter. In this case, MC926 is also incremented by one.
Note 3: In IP mode, this counter is increased by 1 if:
- the cell mapped on a BTS is in IP congestion status;
- or the TCH processing capacity of AbisBTSGroup reaches the limit defined by the NB_MAX_ACTIVE_TCH_TS

Counter definition:
Case: 48.008ASSIGNMENT REQUEST is queued because no TCH (in HR or FR usage) is available in the cell,
timer T11 (case MSC requests for queuing whatever QUEUE_ANYWAY value may be) or timer T11_forced (case
QUEUE_ANYWAY=1, i.e. the queuing is forced within the BSC) is started, and no free TCH can be found before
timer expiry, consequently the request is rejected (by 48.008 CLEAR REQUEST cause: "no radio resource
available").
Remark: If an internal directed retry is attempted and failed while T11/T11_forced is running, the request is
un-holded and the BSC waits for the expiry of the relevant timer. Consequently, this counter must not be
incremented upon the failure of an internal directed retry.
Trigger condition:
The counter is incremented upon the sending of 48.008 CLEAR REQUEST (cause : "no radio resource available")
-following the expiry of T11 or T11 forced for a queued TCH normal assignment.
Note 2: In MX BSC, this counter is incremented whenever a 48.008 CLEAR REQUEST (cause: "no radio resource

Counter definition:
Number of TCH (in HR or FR usage) drops in TCH established phase due to remote transcoder failures (per
TRX).
Trigger condition:
The counter is incremented whenever a 48.058 CONNECTION FAILURE INDICATION message with cause
"Remote Transcoder Failure" is received on Abis interface for an established TCH connection. The BSC considers
a TCH connection as "established" once a 44.018 ASSIGNMENT COMPLETE message (in case of normal
assignments or an internal intra-cell handovers) or a 44.018 HANDOVER COMPLETE message (in case of an
internal inter-cell incoming HO or an external inter-cell incoming
HO) has been received for the TCH connection.
Note 1: MC739 = C739.
Note 2: The counter is incremented only once per established TCH connection. Thus, even if the BTS sends
several 48.058 CONNECTION FAILURE INDICATION messages with cause "Remote Transcoder Failure" for a
particular established TCH connection, BSC will increment the counter only once for that connection.

Counter definition:
Average number of busy TCH radio timeslot (in FR or HR usage, in traffic or in signaling mode) and busy dynamic
SDCCH/8 radio timeslot allocated as TCH.
Trigger condition:
The BSC takes periodically a sample of the number of busy TCH radio timeslots and busy dynamic SDCCH/8
radio timeslots allocated as TCH. The sampling period is set to the value indicated in the Status Inspection field.
At the expiry of the accumulation period, all samples are averaged (i.e. summed and divided by the number of
samples). The averaged value is rounded up or down to the nearest value with an accuracy of 0.1.
A TCH radio timeslot is considered as busy during the time it is allocated to a given MS for TCH traffic (in HR or
FR usage). A dynamic SDCCH/8 timeslot allocated as TCH is considered as busy during the time it is allocated
to a given MS for TCH traffic.
Note 1: the counter value that is indicated in the ASCII file (which can be obtained via the OBSYNT interface) is
an
integer value (i.e. it is as if the BSC multiplies by 10 the average). The reported value shall then be divided by 10
afterwards so that the value that is displayed to the end-user is the correct one.
Note 2: This counter does not take into account the PDCH radio timeslots allocated to the MFS.

Counter definition:
Cumulated time (in seconds) during which the SDCCH request(s) are not served because no SDCCH subchannel
is available.
Trigger condition:
The time counter is started whenever a SDCCH request cannot be served.
The time counter is stopped whenever one of the following conditions is checked:
- if a SDCCH sub-channel becomes free and usable on a static SDCCH timeslot or on a dynamic timeslot
allocated as SDCCH (i.e. when the timeslot is known from the SDCCH_RM module). The term "usable" means
here that the SDCCH sub-channel is not mapped on a TCU in a very high overload state, or,
- if a SDCCH request is served successfully. This condition corresponds to the case the SDCCH_RM module
requests the TCH_RM module for a dynamic SDCCH timeslot.

Cumulated time during which the SDCCH sub-channels belonging to the related static or dynamic SDCCH
timeslot are busy.
Trigger condition:
For the related static or dynamic SDCCH timeslot, the counter cumulates, over the Accumulation Period, all time
unit during which a SDCCH sub-channel is busy.
For each SDCCH allocation of the sub-channel:
1) The counter starts being incremented after the sending of the 48.058 CHANNEL ACTIVATION message
concerning an SDCCH sub-channel on the related TRX timeslot.
2) The counter stops being incremented after the reception of a 48.058 RF CHANNEL RELEASE
ACKNOWLEDGE message or the expiry of timer T_RCR_ACK twice (supervising 48.058 RF CHANNEL
RELEASE message) concerning the SDCCH sub-channel previously activated on the related static or dynamic
SDCCH timeslot.
Example;
Let us consider that on a given static SDCCH/8 timeslot,
- SDCCH sub-channel 1 has been busy for 10 s,
- SDCCH sub-channel 2 has been busy for 20 s,
- SDCCH sub-channel n (with 3 <= n <= 8) has not been busy at all.
Then, at the expiry of the reporting period, the value reported by this counter is 10 + 20 = 30 s.

Observation - 10
Type number:
Type name:
SDCCH observations

No

The maximum number of cells observed for this measurement type is 15 cells.
Type definition:
This measurement type provides observations on SDCCH channel.
An observation is composed of a set of records, each record being related to a single channel seizure
within the observed cell.
A record is a consistent structure of data made up of several fields (called DER) providing information
about the radio configuration and about specific events that are cumulated.
Not all channel seizures are observed in the cell, but one per sample_rate value.
For an observed SDCCH channel, the recording of data starts in the BSC as soon as 08.58CHANNEL
ACTIVATION is sent on Abis.

Observation - 12
Type number:
Internal handover observations
Type name:

No

Type definition:
This measurement type provides observations on internal intra-cell or inter-cell SDCCH or TCH (in HR
or FR usage) handover.
For an observed channel, the recording of data starts in the BSC as soon as 04.08HANDOVER
COMMAND (for inter-cell handover) or 04.08ASSIGNMENT COMMAND (for intra-cell handover) is sent
on Abis by the BSC.
HO1
Type 12 : Internal handover observations
Observation Name : SIGNALLING_TRAFFIC_IND
Length: 1
Measured
number
Observation
Indicates whether or not the observation record relates to an SDCCH handover or RTCH handover attempt. Valid
coding is provided below, all other codings are invalid.
0: handover was for an SDCCH Sub-channel
1: handover was for an RTCH channel.

Valid codings for handovers are as follows in the left column of the table below.
All other codings are invalid.
The right column of the table gives the causes reported to the MSC on the A interface in the 48.008 HANDOVER
REQUIRED message and which are in accordance with GSM 48.008 .
ALCATEL BSS causes for Emergency handovers
| A interface GSM 48.008 cause value
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------7: several consecutive bad SACCH frames received in a micro-cell
| 0000010: uplink quality
17: too low level on the uplink in a microcell compared to a high
| 0000011: uplink strength
threshold
|
18: too low level on the downlink in a microcell compared to a high
| 0000101: downlink strength
threshold
|
2: too low quality on the uplink
4: too low quality on the downlink
| 0000100: downlink quality
3: too low level on the uplink
5: too low level on the downlink
6: too long MS-BTS distance
| 0000110: distance
ALCATEL BSS causes for Better cell handovers
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------14: high level in neighbour overlaid cell for slow MS
| 0001100: better cell
12: too low power budget ("better cell")
21: preferred band handover
23: traffic handover
| 0001111: traffic
remark : causes numbered 8 & 9 have been removed for release 4.
- Causes 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6 apply to any kind of serving cells (macro/micro, single layer/lower layer/upper layer,
normal/concentric).
As these causes are internal to the cell, there is no constraint relatively to the cell environment.
- Causes 7, 17, 18 apply only to serving micro-cells.
As cause 7 is internal to the cell, the target cell may be a neighbour upper layer cell or a neighbour micro-cell.
Causes 17 & 18 apply to a serving micro-cell handover towards a target upper layer cell.
- Cause 12 applies to both serving and target neighbour cells belonging to the same layer whatever their size is.
For
macro/micro cells, this cause applies to handovers :
from single layer to single layer
from single layer to upper layer
from upper layer to upper layer
from upper layer to single layer
from lower layer to lower layer
- Cause 14 applies to a serving upper layer cell handover towards a target macro/micro lower layer cell.
- Cause 21 applies to handover from a serving cell of the classical band towards a target cell of the preferred
band.

Indicates whether or not the observed external incoming handover is between 2 synchronized BTS. Valid coding
is
provided below, all other codings are invalid.
0: The Target and Serving BTS are not synchronized
1: The Target and Serving BTS are synchronized.
It should be noted that synchronized external handovers only occur when they are Intra-BSS.

remark : causes numbered 8 & 9 have been removed for release 4.
- Causes 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6 apply to any kind of serving cells (macro/micro, single layer/lower layer/upper layer,
normal/concentric).
As these causes are internal to the cell, there is no constraint relatively to the cell environment.
- Causes 7, 17, 18 apply only to serving micro-cells.
As cause 7 is internal to the cell, the target cell may be a neighbour upper layer cell or a neighbour micro-cell.
Causes 17 & 18 apply to a serving micro-cell handover towards a target upper layer cell.
- Cause 12 applies to both serving and target neighbour cells belonging to the same layer whatever their size is.
For
macro/micro cells, this cause applies to handovers :
from single layer to single layer
from single layer to upper layer
from upper layer to upper layer
from upper layer to single layer
from lower layer to lower layer
- Cause 14 applies to a serving upper layer cell handover towards a target macro/micro lower layer cell.
- Cause 21 applies to handover from a serving cell of the classical band towards a target cell of the preferred
band.

Counter definition:
Number of cells successfully served for a WRITE REPLACE.
A WRITE REPLACE request coming from the CBC is received by the BSC. This request is addressed to a list of
cells. The BSC is able to process the request either :
- entirely (i.e. for all cells of the list) : the BSC sends a REPORT SUCCESS to the CBC
- partially (i.e. for a part of the list) : the BSC returns a REPORT SUCCESS to the CBC
- not at all (i.e. for no cell) : the BSC returns a REPORT FAILURE to the CBC if the cause of the reject is the
same for all cells, otherwise a REPORT SUCCESS is returned.
When a REPORT SUCCESS is returned, the No-of-Broadcasts-completed-list optional Information Element
specifies the number of cells successfully served by the request. This IE is not provided when no cells can be
served.
Trigger condition:
Whenever a REPORT SUCCESS to a WRITE REPLACE is sent to the CBC, the counter is incremented by the
No-of-Broadcasts-completed-list optional IE (if not provided; the counter is not incremented, since it means that
no cells are served).

Table of 3x 8x10 results.
Each cell (i,j) of the table contains :
1) number of reports in which UL RXQUAL is equal to j and UL RXLEV is reported in level band i (Cij)
2) corresponding averaged value of MS power level
3) corresponding averaged value of Timing Advance
For Cij, the result is given as follows :
Cij=Vij x 254 / Max_i, where Vij represents the real number of measurements, and Max_i the greatest value of Vij,
for i given (see RMS3b).
Cij=0 indicates 'number of measurements = 0'
Cij=254 indicates 'number of measurements = Max_i'
Cij=255 is reserved to indicate overflow.
The values of the average MS power level (2) and the average Timing Advance (3) are directly given, both with a
precision of 0.25. Note that these values (2 and 3) that are indicated in the ASCII file, which can be obtained via
the OBSYNT interface, still have to be divided by 4, whereas the values that are provided at the user interface are
the correct ones.
UL RXQUAL can take values from 0 to 7.
Level band i is defined by : MEAS_STAT_LEV_(i-1)<= RXLEV < MEAS_STAT_LEV_i
MEAS_STAT_LEV_0 = -47 dBm, MEAS_STAT_LEV_10 = -110 dBm
According to 3GPP, values of RXLEV lower than -110 dBm are considered as equal to -110 dBm
Trigger condition:
Whenever in a 44.018 MEASUREMENT RESULT uplink RXQUAL is equal to j, while uplink RXLEV for the same
call is in the given interval of MEAS_STAT_LEV.

BS_TXPWR is the BTS transmitted power defined relatively to the maximum absolute output power of the BTS.
BS_TXPWR is expressed in dB, whereas BTS_MAX_OUTPUT_POWER is expressed in dBm. Note that the
formula is written independently of the coding used for the variables. The function abs() gives the absolute value
of
its argument.
3) corresponding averaged value of Timing Advance

taken into account if the adjacency link is defined in both directions. In case of multiband cells, the BCCH
frequency band of the serving cell will be taken as reference.

The BSC takes periodically a sample of the number of busy TCH radio timeslots allocated for VGCS.
The sampling period is set to the value indicated in the Status Inspection field.
At the expiry of the accumulation period, all samples are averaged with an accuracy of 0.1 (i.e. summed,
multiplied by 10 and divided by the number of samples). The averaged value is rounded up or down to the nearest

Domain:
Counter definition:
Average number of busy TCH radio timeslot (in FR or HR usage, in traffic or in signaling mode) and busy dynamic
SDCCH/8 radio timeslot allocated as TCH.
Trigger condition:
The BSC takes periodically a sample of the number of busy TCH radio timeslots and busy dynamic SDCCH/8
radio timeslots allocated as TCH. The sampling period is set to the value indicated in the Status Inspection field.
At the expiry of the accumulation period, all samples are averaged (i.e. summed and divided by the number of
samples). The averaged value is rounded up or down to the nearest value with an accuracy of 0.1.
A TCH radio timeslot is considered as busy during the time it is allocated to a given MS for TCH traffic (in HR or
FR usage). A dynamic SDCCH/8 timeslot allocated as TCH is considered as busy during the time it is allocated
to a given MS for TCH traffic.
Note 1: the counter value that is indicated in the ASCII file (which can be obtained via the OBSYNT interface) is
an
integer value (i.e. it is as if the BSC multiplies by 10 the average). The reported value shall then be divided by 10
afterwards so that the value that is displayed to the end-user is the correct one.
Note 2: This counter does not take into account the PDCH radio timeslots allocated to the MFS.

Trigger condition:
Whenever a TCH radio timeslot or a dynamic SDCCH/8 radio timeslot allocated as TCH becomes busy, the BSC
determines the current number of busy TCH radio timeslots (in HR or FR usage) and busy dynamic SDCCH/8
radio timeslots allocated as TCH. This counter is the maximum value of this number during the accumulation

Counter definition:
Number of TCH (in HR or FR usage) drops in TCH established phase due to remote transcoder failures (per
TRX).
Trigger condition:
The counter is incremented whenever a 48.058 CONNECTION FAILURE INDICATION message with cause
"Remote Transcoder Failure" is received on Abis interface for an established TCH connection. The BSC considers
a TCH connection as "established" once a 44.018 ASSIGNMENT COMPLETE message (in case of normal
assignments or an internal intra-cell handovers) or a 44.018 HANDOVER COMPLETE message (in case of an
internal inter-cell incoming HO or an external inter-cell incoming
HO) has been received for the TCH connection.
Note 1: MC739 = C739.
Note 2: The counter is incremented only once per established TCH connection. Thus, even if the BTS sends
several 48.058 CONNECTION FAILURE INDICATION messages with cause "Remote Transcoder Failure" for a
particular established TCH connection, BSC will increment the counter only once for that connection.

Average number of busy dynamic SDCCH/8 timeslots allocated as TCH (in FR or HR usage). This counter takes

Trigger condition:
The BSC takes periodically a sample of the number of busy dynamic SDCCH/8 timeslots allocated as TCH. The
sampling period is set to the value indicated in the Status Inspection field. At the expiry of the accumulation
period, all samples are averaged (i.e. summed and divided by the number of samples). The averaged value is
rounded up or down to the nearest value with an accuracy of 0.1.
A dynamic SDCCH/8 timeslot is considered as busy and allocated as TCH during the time it is allocated to a
given MS for TCH traffic (in FR or HR usage).
Note that the counter value that is indicated in the ASCII file (which can be obtained via the OBSYNT interface) is
an integer value (i.e. it is as if the BSC multiplies by 10 the average). The reported value shall then be divided by
10 afterwards so that the value that is displayed to the end-user is the correct one

The time counter is started whenever a SDCCH request cannot be served.
The time counter is stopped whenever one of the following conditions is checked:
- if a SDCCH sub-channel becomes free and usable on a static SDCCH timeslot or on a dynamic timeslot
allocated as SDCCH (i.e. when the timeslot is known from the SDCCH_RM module). The term "usable" means
here that the SDCCH sub-channel is not mapped on a TCU in a very high overload state, or,
- if a SDCCH request is served successfully. This condition corresponds to the case the SDCCH_RM module
requests the TCH_RM module for a dynamic SDCCH timeslot.
