INTRODUCTION
1.1.
OBJECT
The FEMTO Parameter User Guide (FPUG) document provides parameter setting
recommendation from Alcatel-Lucents experience, coming from studies, simulations
and experimentations. It gives the rationale of these settings by describing AlcatelLucents FEMTO BSR algorithms and parameters from an engineering point of view. It
also gives some engineering rules related to parameter settings.
The FPUG does not contain the complete list of configuration parameters; the
parameters described in this document are only customer configuration parameters
accessible by the customer (operator) via the MMI of the OMC.
In the case where the recommended values of the FPUG are different from any other
document, the FPUG recommendation should prevail.
1.2.
SCOPE OF THE DOCUMENT

The FPUG describes the features and the associated parameters which represent the
salient functions available within Alcatel-lucent BSR FEMTO solution, based on
BCR2.1 Phase 5.
The relevant features are listed in the following table.

CPICH POWER UPDATE BASED ON UE RECEIVER

RANGE
To make sure that the total power received by UE remains within its dynamic receiver
range, an UE internal measurement is configured after RAB establishment: Event 6E
is then reported by UE when measuring an RSSI that reaches its dynamic receiver
range (as specified by [3GPP_R02]).
uEtoBSRReportingCriteriaRSSITimetoTrigger, in ms, indicates the period

of time between the timing of event detection and the timing of sending

CPICH POWER UPDATE BASED ON UE

MEASUREMENTS
Once a new RAB is established, BSR may configure at UE side Events 1C and 1F:
Event 1C: The CPICH of an intra-frequency monitored (or detected) cell

becomes better than the active BSRs.
Event 1F: the active BSRs CPICH becomes worse than an absolute
threshold.
ueBasedPilotPowerAdjustMode allows to activate this feature and to define how

CPICH power is updated.

Class 3
Value
When set to disable, BSR does not use UE measurements to update CPICH power;
both Events are thus not configured.
When set to neighbourEcIo, BSR only configures Event 1C and optimizes the CPICH
power by comparing the CPICH Ec/Io of all Intra-frequency reported cells, as follows:
If
Active BSRs CPICH Ec/Io < Neighbouring cells CPICH Ec/Io
then
CPICHpower[new] = CPICHpower[old] + autoConfigPWpAdjustmentStepdB
When set to targetEcIo, BSR only configures Event 1F and optimizes the CPICH
power based on the worst CPICH Ec/Io (of this active BSR) reported by any UE in
DCH during the last autoConfigPWUeBasedPilotPowerAdjustInterval seconds, as
follows:
If
Active BSRs CPICH Ec/Io < autoConfigPWtargetPilotEcIodB
then
CPICHpower[new] = CPICHpower[old] + autoConfigPWpAdjustmentStepdB
Engineering Recommendation: ueBasedPilotPowerAdjustMode

If BSR is deployed on a dedicated carrier and for own usage (i.e. different than Enterprise network),
ueBasedPilotPowerAdjustMode shall be set to targetEcIo.
Otherwise, ueBasedPilotPowerAdjustMode shall be set to neighbourEcIo.

4.1.3 MAXIMUM BSR TX POWER

Since BSR CPICH power is dynamically updated as presented in section 4.1.2, BSR
maximum power shall also be adjusted according to the following formula:
MaxBSRPowerdBm = min (maxBSRPowerLimitdBm, pCPICHpower_dBm+10)
This makes sure that MaxBSRPowerdBm is 10 dB higher than CPICH power but is
still within the limit maxBSRPowerLimitdBm.

RADIO RESSOURCE MANAGEMENT
5.1.
CALL ADMISSION CONTROL

The Call Admission Control (CAC) algorithm is used to admit or deny new RRC
Connection Request based on several criterions presented in section 5.1.2.
5.1.1 EMERGENCY CALL REDIRECTION

Prior to the CAC processing described in section 5.1.2, a specific treatment is
performed for Emergency calls, i.e. when RRC Connection Request cause is set to
Emergency. In such a case, emergencyCallAlwaysRedirectFlag is checked; when
set to True, BSR directly performs an Emergency call redirection to Macro 3G or 2G,
depending on emergencyCallRedirectNetwork value.

If Emergency call redirection is disabled or no Macro neighbouring cell is available nor

5.1.2 PROCESSING CAC

CAC is based on several checks:
UMT/IRC/DD/024270
01.01 / EN
Draft
26/May/2008
Page 19/59
DL/UL loads are lower than thrCACDL/UL (thrCACEmergencyDL/UL for

numCellDCHUE.

Refer to section 5.2 for more details on CAC thresholds.
If the above checks fail, the following process applies depending on the RRC
Connection Request establishment cause
CAC rejection for non-Emergency calls

BSR first tries and preempts an UE which is marked for Measurement Acceleration
(i.e. which is in Cell DCH for radio optimization).
If there is no UE marked for Measurement Acceleration, BSR performs Active Call
Redirection which allows handing-over an existing CS Speech call such that resources
are freed up to enable the new call. This only takes place if
activeCallRedirectEnabled is set to True and aCRpreference is set to
nonEmergencyCall or both (the type of the RAB to establish).

Engineering Recommendation: Active Call Redirection

It is recommended to enable Active Call Redirection feature for emergencyCall only. This will allow to
pre-empt a normal CS Speech call in order to establish an Emergency CS call.
In case Active Call Redirection is disabled or fails, BSR may perform normal call preemption, depending on enableNormalCallPreemption value. When set to True, BSR
pre-empts an existing Cell DCH UE based on the order below:
Cell DCH UE with only PS RAB Background
Cell DCH UE with only PS RAB Interactive

CAC rejection for Emergency calls

If CAC fails, BSR first tries and pre-empts an UE marked for Measurement
Acceleration; BSR eventually pre-empts, if needed, an existing Cell DCH UE when
emergencyCallPreemptionEnabled is set to True.

If emergencyCallPreemptionEnabled is set to False, BSR finally attempts Active

Call Redirection if activeCallRedirectEnabled is set to True and aCRpreference is
set to emergencyCall or both.
5.1.3 REJECTING RRC CONNECTION

In case the previous checks did not allow to accept the new RRC Connection, BSR
sends back RRC Connection Release to UE with cause Congestion and specifies in
the same RRC message which network to be redirected to, using:
emergencyCallRedirectNetwork for Emergency calls,
redirectNetwork for non-Emergency calls.

DYNAMIC BEARER CONTROL

The Dynamic Bearer Control (DBC) is in charge of the rate allocation for PS and CS
Conversational services on DCH and/or HS-DSCH transport channels based on:
UL and DL load information,
the baseband processor resource usage.

DBC algorithm first evaluates the environment status for UL & DL based on the latest
CPICH Ec/N0 measurement reported by UE in RRC Connection Request, RRC Cell
Update or RRC Measurement Report (while in Cell DCH). The comparison of CPICH
Ec/No with hardcoded thresholds leads to 2 different values for each UL and DL
environment status: Cell Center or Cell Edge.
Then, DBC admits the incoming request if the following condition is satisfied,
depending on the bearer to be granted.

multiple RAB service combination is supported.
In case one of these checks fails, the BSR renegotiates the RAB setup as presented
in section 5.2.1. If renegotiation attempt fails, BSR pre-empts resources from other
established PS RAB by reconfiguring it (several PS RABs if needed).
If the new RAB is a CS emergency voice call and the PS RAB(s) pre-emption did not
release enough resources, the BSR will pre-empt an existing CS RAB (CS Data first,
then CS Voice) if emergencyCallPreemptionEnabled is set to True.

AIR INTERFACE CONGESTION CONTROL

For the purpose of UL and DL load calculation, BSR periodically evaluates the
Received Total Wideband Power (RSSI) and Transmitted Carrier Power (TSSI).
When load_DL becomes greater than or equal to thrConCDL (parameter is presented
in section 5.2.2), Congestion Control is triggered for DL and BSR starts pre-empting
existing RAB(s) until load_DL < thrConCDL in the following order:
PS DCH of the highest data rate with lowest traffic handling priority.
If no PS DCH left, CS Data.
If no PS DCH and CS Data left, CS Voice (non-emergency call).

MOBILITY MANAGEMENT
In BCR2.1, Mobility Management is supported as follows:
While in Idle, through Cell Reselection from/to UMTS or GSM Macro cells
While in DCH connected mode, through Blind handover to UMTS or GSM

Macro cell (only applicable for CS speech call)
For that purpose, BSR must define and maintain a list of neighbouring cells using
auto-configuration and self-optimisation procedures described in the following
sections.
6.1.
CELL RESERVATION AND ACCESS RESTRICTION

As specified by [3GPP_R01], cell status and cell reservations are indicated with the
Cell Access Restriction Information Element in the System Information Message SIB3

3G measurements are either performed:
by BSR itself in case 3G Network Listening feature is enabled; in that case,

BSR switches to a UE mode with receive-only capability and is able to
decode the 3G neighbourhood present in the best 3G Macros SIB11 to
improve its self-learning;
by requesting an UE to perform intra-frequency or inter-frequency

measurements (using Compressed Mode if needed by UE); such
measurements are only applicable when a CS call is running.
umtsNtwkListenEnableFlag enables the 3G Network listening feature which

means BSR is able to measure 3G Macro cells by itself. When set to False,
UE is requested to perform such measurements.

LCellGsmFrequencyList objects,
and to improve GSM neighbourhood knowledge by reading the best

3G neighbouring cells SIB11 when umtsNtwkListenEnableFlag is

In order to limit the time during which the mobile performs measurements on UMTS
and GSM neighbouring cells, criteria for neighbour cells tracking and measurements
are applied.
6.3.1.1
INTRA-FREQUENCY MEASUREMENTS
Squal is compared with the parameter sIntraSearch:
If Squal > sIntraSearch, the UE does not perform intra-frequency

measurements.
If Squal sIntraSearch, the UE performs intra-frequency measurements.
If sIntraSearch is not sent for the serving cell, the UE performs intrafrequency measurements.
BSR also makes use of the optional parameter sSearchHCS which is a threshold to
be compared with Srxlev in order to define Intra- and Inter-frequency measurements.
Refer to Figure 2 to get a view on measurement decision based on Squal and Srxlev.
6.3.1.2
INTER-FREQUENCY MEASUREMENTS
Squal is compared with the parameter sInterSearch:
If Squal > sInterSearch, the UE does not perform inter-frequency

measurements.
If Squal sInterSearch, the UE performs inter-frequency measurements.
If sInterSearch is not sent for the serving cell, the UE performs interfrequency measurements.

6.3.1.3
INTER-RAT MEASUREMENTS
Squal is compared with the parameter sSearchRAT:
If Squal > sSearchRAT, the UE does not perform measurements on GSM

cells.
If Squal sSearchRAT, the UE performs measurements on GSM cells.
If sSearchRAT is not sent for the serving cell, the UE performs

measurements on GSM cells.
BSR also makes use of the optional parameter sHCSRAT which is a threshold to be
compared with Srxlev in order to define GSM measurements.
6.3.1.4
If sHCSRAT is not sent, GSM measurement is only defined by comparing

Squal and sSearchRAT (cf. above conditions)
If sHCSRAT is sent, refer to Figure 2 to get a view on GSM measurement

decision based on Squal and Srxlev.

Engineering Recommendation: interBSRCellRsInfoEnableBroadcast

In case FEMTO is deployed as part of an Enterprise network (substituting Pico network),
interBSRCellRsInfoEnableBroadcast shall be set to True so as inter-BSR mobility is allowed.
In case FEMTO is deployed by a private and standalone user, interBSRCellRsInfoEnableBroadcast
shall be set to False.
Following measurement decision and SIB11 decoding, UE applies criterion S on the

measured GSM or UMTS neighbouring cells to assess their eligibility to cell
reselection, as presented in the following sections.

3G NEIGHBOURING CELL CRITERIA

To be eligible, the 3G Macro (intra and/or inter-frequency) and BSR neighbouring cells
must fulfill the following criterion:
Squal > 0 AND Srxlev > 0

i.e.
Qqualmeas > qQualMin AND Qrxlevmeas > qRxLevMin + Pcompensation
i.e.
CPICH_Ec/No > qQualMin AND CPICH_RSCP > qRxLevMin + Pcompensation
Where Pcompensation = max (maxAllowedUlTxPower - P_MAX, 0)
Note: These relationships shall be verified on the 3G Macro neighbouring cell and
possibly on BSC neighbouring cell.

6.3.3 CELL RESELECTION RANKING CRITERION

The cell ranking criterion is used to rank the cells prior to the reselection.
The cell-ranking criterion for serving cell is:

Rs = Qmeas,s + qHyst,s
When sIB3CrQualityMeasure = CPICH_Ec/N0:
Rs =Ec/No + sib3qHyst2s
When sIB3CrQualityMeasure =CPICH_RSCP:
Rs =RSCP + sib3qHyst1s
Cell ranking criterion for neighbouring cells is:

Rn = Qmeas,n Qoffset s,n
Where:
Qmeas,n = CPICH_Ec/N0 or CPICH_RSCP for FDD cells. For GSM cells, the
RxLev (average received signal level) is used instead of CPICH Ec/N0 or
CPICH RSCP in the mapping function.
Qoffset s,n specifies the offset between the serving cell and the neighbouring
cell; it can have two different values:
o qOffset1sn is used with GSM cells or UMTS cells when the quality
measure for cell selection and re-selection is set to CPICH RSCP.
o qOffset2sn is only used for UMTS cells when the quality measure for
cell selection and re-selection is set to CPICH EC/N0.
The cells (serving and neighbouring) will be ranked according to the R criterion.

6.3.3.1
FIRST RANKING
Among the GSM and UMTS Cells verifying S criterion, UE shall perform ranking
according to ranking R criterion, as specified above.
In a first step, the mobile shall always consider the CPICH RSCP / RxLev
measurement and associated set of parameters (qHyst1, qOffset1sn):
Serving Cell: Rs = CPICH_RSCP + sib3qHyst1s

Eligible UMTS Neighbour cell: RnUMTS = CPICH_RSCP qOffset1sn
Eligible GSM Neighbour cell: RnGSM = RxLev qOffset1sn
sib3qHyst1s is the hysteresis value of the serving BSR cell. It is used in the
process of Cell Reselection of cell by the UE when the quality measure for cell
selection and re-selection is the CPICH RSCP.

HARD HANDOVER
In BCR2.1 release, BSR only supports Blind HO to Macro cell (either 3G or 2G) for CS
speech calls due to radio degradation. This means that:
No action is performed when standalone PS call is running.
In case of multi-service (CS+PS), PS call is first released then handover is

triggered.
6.4.1 ELIGIBILITY FOR HANDOVER

When a CS (resp. CS+PS) call is running, BSR checks the eligibility for blind
handover using the following activation flag targetHOCS (resp. targetHOCSPS)
whose behaviour is as follows:
When set to disable, handover is disabled and CS call eventually drops if

radio condition keeps on degrading.
When set to fdd, only handover to Macro 3G may occur.
When set to gsm, only handover to Macro 2G may occur.
When set to fddPreferred, handover to Macro 3G is the preference but HO to

Macro 2G may occur as a backup if needed.
When set to gsmPreferred, handover to Macro 2G is the preference but HO to

Macro 3G may occur as a backup if needed.

Engineering Recommendation: targetHO

For CS and CS+PS, it is recommended to perform blind HO to Macro 3G as much as possible;
however, blind HO to GSM should be considered as a backup in case no 3G neighbouring cells is
available. Therefore, targetHOCS and targetHOCSPS must be set to fddPreferred.
Since Blind HO while in standalone PS is not supported, targetHOPS must be set to disable.
6.4.2 DETECTING RADIO DEGRADATION

Each time BSR detects the need for radio degradation assessment (i.e. when
targetHOCS or targetHOCSPS are NOT set to disable), 2 Events are configured at
UE side, as per [3GPP_R02]:
Radio is degrading: Event 2D is reported by UE when BSR CPICH Ec/No or

CPICH Rscp becomes below a certain threshold;
Radio is back to normal: Event 2F is reported by UE when BSR CPICH Ec/No

or CPICH Rscp becomes above a certain threshold.

Once UE has reported an Event 2D, BSC tries to find an eligible target cell starting
from the Macro 3G and/or 2G neighbourhood built during auto-configuration and selfoptimisation steps (cf. section 6.2).
A Macro neighbouring cell is eligible to Blind handover if it fulfills the following

conditions:

Note: among GSM neighbouring cells, only those provisioned under GsmExtCell are
eligible to Blind HO as they contain the mandatory information (locationAreaCode
and rAC) for RANAP Relocation procedures that would not have been dynamically
retrieved by BSR itself.
Finally, depending on targetHOCS or targetHOCSPS values (cf. section 6.4.1), BSC

triggers the handover to the best ranked eligible cell. If relocation fails, a new attempt
is made on the next eligible cell until handover succeeds or eligible cell list is empty.
In such a case, handover to the other access can be performed if fddPreferred or
gsmPreferred is selected.
Note: In case of multi-service CS+PS, Iu PS is released before performing the

handover.
