Restriction & case study:
1)
UM Radio link failure due to T200 & N200 Expired (Call drop).
T200 is a timer of acknowledgment transmission from BTS to MS through LAPD. When BTS
transmits a acknowledgment message to MS, T200 times is started in LAPD. If this acknowledgment
message is not received by MS until T200 timer is expired then the transmission will be repeated
(retransmission).The maximum retransmission is N200+1 times. T200 will be restarted in each
retransmission.
N200 is the maximum number of retransmission of LAPD (Layer-2). If until N200+1 times of
retransmission the acknowledgment message, MS still doesnt receive this message, then the
connection will be dropped.

Radio link failure expected during call terminating flow (T306 & T308 put
at high value).
If the MSC timers T306 & T308 put at great value that will increase the radio link failures at BSC
side and also the CDN, due to the timers T200 & N200 will expired and the MSC still wait till the
T306 & T308 Expired.
Radio link failure expected during call terminating flow (T306 & T308 put at
very low value).
A. The main advantage due to change the MSC timers to very low value:
The Radio link failures will decreased after call terminated due to the MM resource will release from
MSC & BSC Side before the Radio link failure timers (T200 & N200) expired at UM interface side.
5)
Due to the very low value of T306 & T308 the BSC will release the MM Resource but the
MS will keep UM resource (TCH/FACCH) till the radio link timers (T200, N200) expired,
and that may cause the below problems:
A- BSC & MSC Expected that the MS free but actually the MS keep using the UM
resource for some time
B- the TCH Cong may slightly increased, or be the same even that the call release
become faster from MSC Side.
