3.2. FEATURE 13451 - 3G TO 2G REDIRECTION FOR SPEECH CALLS

The feature redirects speech calls from 3G to 2G at call establishment when no resources are available to establish the call on the current 3G cell.

This situation can occur during the SRB (Signaling Radio Bearer) establishment or during the TRB (Traffic Radio Bearer) establishment

The SRB is established as a result of the first Access Stratum (AS) message being received by the RNC, and is used to allow the UE and CN to exchange subsequent Non Access Stratum (NAS) messages to allow the call to progress.

The TRB is established upon reception of the RAB Assignment Request from the CN. As a result, the existing SRB is transitioned to a SRB+TRB RB. This RB combination may also cause CAC to fail on the RNC for the same resource constraint reasons as can occur during SRB processing.

Handling CAC failure during SRB establishment:

Once the RNC receives the RRC Connection Request for an Originating Conversational Call, if no resources are available to establish the SRB, the RNC will reply to the UE with RRC Connection Reject indicating that Redirection to GSM shall be performed.

Handling CAC failure during TRB establishment:

The speech call progresses normally to the point where the CN sends the RAB Assignment Request. If the RNC does not identify any form of capacity exhaust, the call is completed on 3G using existing normal procedures.

If the RNC identifies a capacity exhaust situation, using existing CAC mechanisms, prior to the RAB Assignment Response, the RNC responds with a RAB Assignment failure, with a “Directed Retry” (DR) indication. This prevents the CN from terminating the call.

The RNC then sends the CN a Relocation Required indication, including the provisioned 2G designated target cell (Blind HO target).

The 3G-2G HO is completed as per existing 3G-2G UTRAN/CN Handover procedures.

The different resources that could trigger the Directed Retry in case of shortage are:

• Power

• Codes

• Iub (i.e. AAL2 CAC)

• CEM (i.e. RL Reconf Failure from NodeB)

• Iu (i.e. AAL2 CAC)

• RNC Internal Resource (i.e. PMC CPU, load )

3.3. FEATURE 24082 - MSA32 ENHANCEMENT TO SUSTAIN 28E1 WITH IMA

Without this feature a maximum of 22 E1 links per MSA32 card can be provisioned on the Iub interface when IMA is used. Therefore, the overall E1/IMA capacity of an RNC (i.e. when 7MSA32 cards are plugged into the PP7K) was 154E1.

Thanks to this feature a maximum of 28 E1 links per MSA32 card can be provisioned on the Iub interface when IMA is used. Therefore, the overall E1/IMA capacity of the RNC becomes 196 E1/IMA.

3.4. FEATURE 25100 - UTRAN CALL TRACE: ADDITIONAL MEASUREMENT REPORTING (NBAP COMMON MEASUREMENT, RRC BLER, ETC..)

NBAP measurements are performed at Node B level. The results are then reported to the RNC in NBAP (Node B measurements) measurement report messages. This is defined in recommendations 3GPP 25.434.

The required feature consists of including NBAP Common Measurements in the CTa, CTb and CTg session outputs.

The collection and mediation layer APM.ADI shall decode all the NBAP common and RRC messages as per the CT template definition.

Without this feature, the NBAP Common Measurements sub-function comes from:

3.6. FEATURE 26407 - IPSEC SUPPORT VALIDATION ON RNC

IPSec is a framework of open standards developed by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF).

IPSec provides security for transmission of sensitive information over unprotected networks such as the Internet. IPSec acts at the network layer, protecting and authenticating IP packets between participating IPSec devices ("peers").

IPSec provides the following network security services. These services are optional. In general, local security policy will dictate the use of one or more of these services:

• Data Confidentiality - The IPSec sender can encrypt packets before transmitting them across a network.

• Data Integrity - The IPSec receiver can authenticate packets sent by the IPSec sender to ensure that the data has not been altered during transmission.

• Data Origin Authentication - The IPSec receiver can authenticate the source of the IPSec packets sent. This service is dependent upon the data integrity service.

• Anti-Replay - The IPSec receiver can detect and reject replayed packets

IPSec provides IP network-layer encryption and consists in the addition of authentication, encryption, compression, and public key exchange.

The standards define several new packet formats: the authentication header (AH) to provide data integrity and the encapsulating security payload (ESP) to provide confidentiality and data integrity. Key management and security associations, the IPSec parameters between two devices, are negotiated with the Internet Key Exchange (IKE, formerly known as the Internet Security Association Key Management Protocol or ISAKMP (Oakley). IKE can use digital certificates for device authentication to enable the creation of large encryption networks.

IPSec according to the standards consists of separate protocols, listed below:

Page 28: UTRAN Release Operational Impacts (Features, Counters...)

Nortel Confidential 12

NN-20500-044 01.02/EN Preliminary March 2006 Copyright© 2003-2005 Nortel Networks

Authentication Header (AH): provides authenticity guarantee for packets, by attaching strong crypto checksum to packets. If you receive a packet with AH and the checksum operation was successful, you can be sure about two things if you and the peer share a secret key, and no other party knows the key: The packet was originated by the expected peer. The packet was not generated by impersonator. The packet was not modified in transit. Unlike other protocols, AH covers the whole packet, from the IP header to the end of the packet. Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP): provides confidentiality guarantee for packets, by encrypting packets with encryption algorithms. If you receive a packet with ESP and successfully decrypted it, you can be sure that the packet was not wiretapped in the middle, if you and the peer share a secret key, and no other party knows the key.

• IP payload compression (IPcomp): ESP provides encryption service to the packets. However, encryption tends to give negative impact to compression on the wire (such as ppp compression). IPcomp provides a way to compress packet before encryption by ESP (Of course, you can use IPcomp alone if you wish to).

• An orthogonal (mostly) division of IPSec functionality is applied depending on whether the endpoint doing the IPSec encapsulation is the original source of the data or a gateway:

• Transport mode: is used by a host that generates the packets. In transport mode, the security headers are added before the transport layer (e.g.. TCP, UDP) headers, before the IP header is prepended to the packet. In other words an AH added to the packet will cover the hashing of the TCP header and some fields of the end-to-end IP header, and an ESP header will cover the encryption of the TCP header and the data, but not the end-to-end IP header.

• Tunnel mode: is used when the end-to-end IP header is already attached to the packet, and one of the ends of the secure connection is only a gateway. In this mode, the AH and ESP headers are used to cover the entire packet

including the end-to-end header, and a new IP header is prepended to the packet that covers just the hop to the other end of the secure connection (though that may of course be several IP hops away).

IKE is optional; it is possible to configure secret keys manually for AH/ESP. Nevertheless manual key configuration introduces drawbacks and security gaps, as one secret key cannot be used forever. If a same secret key has been used for a long period of time, the traffic become more and more likely to get compromised.

So that, security of IPSec protocols depends on the secrecy of secret keys. If secret keys are compromised, IPSec protocols can no longer be secure.

RFC suites starting from RFC1825 describe IPSec, and most recent IPSec RFC suite starts from RFC2401.

3.8. FEATURE 26521 - RNC SUPPORTS QAAL2 ALTERNATE ROUTING

Terminology

- MGW : Media Gateway The Media Gateway terminates the signaling over the Mc interface from the (G)MSC servers. The Media Gateway terminates the Iu transport network control plane signaling with its transport bearer (see 3GPP TS 25.410 and 3GPP TS 25.414). The Media Gateway also terminates the Iu user plane protocol (see 3GPP TS 25.415). It also terminates the bearer control signaling and the transport bearer over the Nb interface (see 3GPP TS 29.414 and 3GPP TS 29.415).

The Media Gateway contains bearer terminations and media manipulation equipment (e.g. transcoders, echo cancellers, or tone senders). It may perform media conversion and framing protocol conversion.

Routing Possibilities (figure 11)

For a given Q.AAL2 destination identified by an address (A2EA) more than one route needs to be provisioned to reach that address so that in case of failure of one route another route to that address can still be used.

The need for this would appear typically in a AAL2 switched network:

This function chooses a route for the QAAL2 establishment request based on the destination address (A2EA). The “route” is in fact the next-hop or the next adjacent AAL2 switch identified by its SS7 PC for Iu and Iur (identified by its SSCOP connection for Iub).

3.9. FEATURE 26614 - RNC SUPPORTS QAAL2 ALTERNATE ROUTING

This function chooses a route for the QAAL2 establishment request based on the destination address (A2EA). In previous releases, all A2EAs are provisioned in the RNC one by one (the whole address) and there is a static mapping to an SS7 PC (Point Code).

Also when standard address format types are defined, address translation can be performed using address prefix instead of the whole address. This is very important as it means we need only to provision prefixes, it’s easier for the operator and it allows a nearly unlimited amount of A2EAs.

Originally the 3GPP didn’t mandate or list a particular A2EA format so that implementing prefix translation was risky (no way of knowing what format the customer would like to use). Now the 3GPP references an updated version of E.191 with a limited list of A2EA formats.

This means that for a given AAL2 switch (identified by its point code on Iu/Iur or SSCOP connection in Iub) instead of provisioning a list of up to 32 20-bytes A2EAs, the operator can provision a given number of variable length entries (prefixes) that can be reached through this adjacent AAL2 node.

QAAL2 Address Translation

In the example above, 3 prefixes are provisioned: A2EA1, A2EA2, A2EA3. A dedicated A2EA would be matched against each prefix: the best match would be used for routing purpose, in order to find the associated Destination Point Code.

3.10. FEATURE 27219 - INTRA-FREQUENCY EVENT-TRIGGERED MEASUREMENTS

Prior to UA04.2 the product allows the operator to choose between • Periodic intra-frequency RRC measurement reporting, or • Hybrid periodic / event-based intra-frequency RRC measurements reporting

This feature implements the support of Event-triggered intra-frequency RRC measurements reporting as an evolution to the hybrid mode. Intra-frequency measurements are used for Soft Handover mobility, Alarm Handover detection, and RRM algorithms. Inter-frequency and inter-RAT (GSM) measurements are still reported in periodic mode.

3.11. FEATURE 27330 - RB ADAPTATION BASED ON TRAFFIC: DL AND UL WITH START @64KBIT/S

When a service is initiated, the Radio Bearer (RB) that is setup results from the computation of the RAB request attributes and the UTRAN admission rules. For instance, PS services, which are tolerant to delay, can be admitted with a lower bit rate when the available system resources do not allow to admit it at the requested maximum bit rate.

Nevertheless, once the RB is established, there can be some situations where the allocated RB bit rate is too high (or too low) compared to the real traffic carried over the RAB. This can for example be the case for:

• FTP or Streaming like applications for which the throughput may be constrained by a server limitation or a congestion at the IP level

• Allocation policy for which the CN always requests the subscribed maximum bit rate (e.g. 384kbit/s), irrespective of the service requirement.

Nortel already provides the Always-On feature to handle inactive or low active applications (e.g. polling mechanism, mailbox checking, etc) by downsizing the RB to low rate DCH (i.e. UL:8/DL:8) or CELL_FACH. Thanks to this feature further capacity is saved as the RNC is able to dynamically adapt the RB bit rate as close as possible to the real traffic for those services requiring more than the Always-On downsized configuration but less than the current RB.

The feature supports RB bit rate adaptation in both downlink (DL) and uplink (UL) independently.

To achieve this, the RNC monitors the traffic of all established PS RAB and periodically determines if the current RB needs to be reconfigured to match the actual traffic. This mechanism works in parallel of the existing Always-On feature as illustrated in the picture below.

Radio Bearer adaptation

RB adaptation principles (figure 19)

The RB adaptation process has two main procedures:

A Traffic monitoring process: procedure by which the RNC estimates the average throughput of the service

A RB resizing process: this is the mechanism responsible for determining if the current RB bit rate needs to be adapted and for triggering the corresponding RB reconfiguration

RB bit rate adaptation can lead to downsize or to upsize the current RB bit rate. Although performed independently, DL and UL bit rate adaptation processes are quite similar the only difference being that:

o In DL, user is initially admitted at a bit rate determined based on the RAB Matching and iRM rules. Then, during the call, the RB bit rate can be downsized or upsized to match the estimated user average throughput.

The RAB Matching provides a reference RB bit rate that is selected among the RB configuration, which are enabled to RAB Matching, as the bit rate that is immediately lower or equal to the Requested Maximum Bit Rate (i.e. received in the RAB assignment request)

iRM can replace the reference DL RB bit rate by a lower one according to radio conditions (Radio link colour) and cell loading (Cell colour).

o In UL, user is initially admitted at a pre-configured low bit rate (default is 64kbit/s), and the RNC relies on the traffic monitoring function to determine if the bit rate needs to be upsized or downsized.

The rationale behind this choice is that UL traffic profile is expected to be made of few packets followed by large idle period in most cases. Hence allocating a low bit rate at admission reduces the risk of blocking, while the traffic monitoring function ensures that if the user actually needs more it can be upsized to a higher rate. Such management also ensures that allocated base band resources in the Node B are used to carry revenue generating traffic.

NN-20500-044 01.02/EN Preliminary March 2006 Copyright© 2003-2005 Nortel Networks

RB adaptation downsizing

When the RB bit rate needs to be downsized, the RNC selects the bit rate according to ranges of average throughput as shown in the picture below.

For example, if a user is currently allocated UL:64kbit/s / DL:384kbit/s but the estimated DL average throughput is lower than Tdown(N), then the RB is reconfigured to UL:64kbit/s / DL:N kbit/s where N ∈ {32, 64, 128, 256, 384}.

RB adaptation upsizing

1. Uplink

When the RB bit rate needs to be upsized, the RNC selects the bit rate that is immediately higher than the current RB (i.e. step-by-step upsize), since the traffic monitoring function can only indicate that the current bit rate is not sufficient (i.e. estimated throughput higher than an absolute threshold), but cannot provide information on what would be the most suitable higher rate.

For example, if a user is currently allocated UL:64kbit/s / DL:128kbit/s but the estimated average throughput in UL is above an absolute threshold, i.e. Tup(64), then the RB is reconfigured to UL:128kbit/s / DL:128kbit/s.

2. Downlink

When the RB bit rate needs to be upsized, the RNC can target any rate (i.e. multi-step upsize), based on user throughput and RLC buffer.

3.15. FEATURE 27740 - IUB LOAD IN IRM

This feature consists in integrating the Iub load in the existing cell colour that is used as an input of DL iRM and iRM pre-emption features. As such, DL iRM and iRM pre-emption remains unchanged but takes the Iub load into account.

The feature works as follow:

• RNC measures the load on the Iub

• Based on configurable thresholds the RNC determines an Iub link colour

• The Iub link colour is integrated to the existing “radio” cell colour

− Since the Iub bandwidth is shared between all the cells of the same Node B the Iub link colour is per Node B (more details below)

• Cell colour integrating Iub link colour is applied to:

− DL iRM − iRM pre-emption, i.e. possibility to trigger pre-emption based on Iub

congestion

Iub link colour determination

• 3 colours: − Green when Iub is not loaded − Yellow when Iub is moderately loaded − Red when Iub is highly loaded

• Calculated at each allocation/release/reconfiguration of Iub resources on a given Iub interface

• Determined by comparing Iub load to configurable thresholds − Green2Yellow_th (resp. Yellow2Green_th for hysteresis) − Yellow2Red_th (resp. Red2Yellow_th for hysteresis)

The feature specifies Cell_DCH as the preferred RRC state for connection call setup. It also specifies the RRM features that optimize the UTRAN resource usage on HSDPA cells.

UTRAN system parameters and counters are also defined in this document.

3.18. FEATURE 27931 - HSDPA FLEXIBLE RESOURCE MANAGEMENT

The feature introduces a dynamic sharing of the Node-B PA power between HSPDA and R99 traffic. As far as the CCH channels and the power margin (SHO, …) are concerned, the UA04.1 Node-B PA power partitioning is not impacted.

Concerning the PA resource availability, the Nortel CAC algorithm has been enhanced with respect to previous releases in order to take into account MAC-hs power management for HSDPA. To do so, the Node-B sends back to the RNC the “Total_PW_On_None_HSDPA_Channels” parameter for a dynamic update of the RNC CAC.

Flexible power management (figure 1)

As presented above, the flexible power management for HSDPA ensures that the HSDPA throughput is maximized once the remaining Node-B PA power is not used for DCH traffic. As defined by the 3GPP standard, all UTRAN resources (PA power, ...) used for HSDPA can be preempted by any DCH traffic. In case of significant PA power load by DCH traffic, a Node-B parameter allows customers to ensure a minimum of PA power resources for cell HSDPA operation.

3.19. FEATURE 27932 - HSDPA STEP 1

As major objective in UA04.2, Nortel HSDPA UTRAN solution aims European/Asian 3G operators at offering commercial high speed DL packet accesses for not GBR PSD (Interactive/Background) traffic to mobile as well as nomadic in-building subscribers.

3.20. FEATURE 27935 - MULTI-CARRIER HSDPA TRAFFIC SEGMENTATION

A UA04.2 supports 2 frequencies layers, one with UA04.2 HSDPA cells and the other one with UA04.2 R99 cells. See figure below:

Multi Carrier HSDPA Traffic Segmentation

The feature provides the possibility to move the HSDPA capable mobiles on the HSDPA frequency layer. It also provides the possibility to move the R99/R4 only capable mobiles on the R99/R4 frequency layer. These movements are carried out at call set up.

The implementation uses the RRC Connection Setup procedure with a Redirection to another frequency.

The R99 to R5 redirection is triggered if all the following conditions are met:

- the UE is a R5 mobile (Access stratum release indicator) - the UE requests MO/MT call for Interactive or Background traffic class - there is at least one inter-frequency neighbor cell configured for the current cell

which supports HSDPA

The R5 to R99 redirection is triggered if all the following conditions are met:

- the UE is a R99 or R4 mobile (absence of the Access stratum release implies R99)

- the call is not an emergency call - there is at least one inter-frequency neighbor cell configured for the current cell

3.21. FEATURE 27936 - HSDPA INTRA-FREQUENCY MOBILITY

In UA04.2 a given RNC or a given Node B may control HSDPA and non-HSDPA cells. See figure below:

Non-HSDPA HSDPA

HSDPA Intra Frequency Mobility

The Intra-frequency mobility feature supports the following mobility scenarios:

• a HSDPA UE moving from an HSDPA cell to another HSDPA cell • a HSDPA UE moving from an non-HSDPA cell to a HSDPA cell • a HSDPA UE moving from an HSDPA cell to non HSDPA cell

In Idle mode, the mobility is performed through the cell reselection mechanism. In HSDPA connected mode, a Hard Handover is performed in order to move the HS-DSCH of the Primary cell, while the associated DCH performs Soft/Softer handover.

If the new Primary cell is controlled by a Drift RNC, the HSDPA call is switched to DCH. If a UE connected to a Drift RNC on a DCH channel has its primary cell moving back to its Serving RNC, the call is upgraded to HSDPA.

3.24. FEATURE 27940 - H-BBU POOL ACROSS SECTORS

The feature enables the iCEM BBU sharing over sectors where HSDPA is implemented. The iCEM BBU (also named H-BBU) that implements the HSDPA software is managed by the Node B as a pool of processing resources over sectors.

The H-BBU processing resources are dynamically shared over carrier/sectors (cells) as a function of the cell traffic load. Hence all H-BBU processing resources are potentially allocated to the MAC-hs scheduler of one of Node-B cells according to the traffic load per sector.

Sharing a single H-BBU over 3 HSDPA cells is equivalent to consider that each cell will use on average a third of the processing capacity.

Thanks to this feature the minimum iCEM configuration in a Node B is 2 iCEM128s.

3.26. FEATURE 27942 - ALWAYS-ON ON HSDPA

While downlink (DL) user traffic is carried over the HS-DSCH channel, the uplink (UL) traffic is carried over an associated DCH channel.

This feature minimizes the impact of inactive HSDPA users on UTRAN resources by downgrading these users to CELL_FACH when inactive during a certain period of time.

To save in NodeB base band resources (i.e. CEM), the UL dedicated channel is not maintained during a period of inactivity. In addition, since the admission process in the RNC for HSDPA is based on a maximum number of users that can be simultaneously supported, inactive users are not counted since they actually have no data to transmit.

Thanks to Nortel Always-On feature it is possible to move inactive users to CELL_FACH and to PMM-idle mode in a second step based on user traffic monitoring and inactivity timers.

Always-On on HSDPA works as follow:

• For each user mapped on HSDPA, the RNC monitors the traffic in UL and DL

• If UL and DL user traffic falls below the configured throughput threshold during T1 timer (1st inactivity timer), the UE is moved to CELL_FACH

• In a 2nd step, if UL and DL user traffic equal to zero during T2 timer (2nd inactivity timer), the RRC connection is released and the UE is moved to PMM-idle mode (PDP contexts are kept active)

• When in CELL_FACH, upsizing (i.e. transition back to CELL_DCH) is triggered as soon as UL or DL DTCH buffer is above configured thresholds

3.27. FEATURE 27943 - IUB BANDWIDTH LIMITATION HANDLING

With HSDPA, the effective throughput per UE is variable. A flow control mechanism has been introduced between the Mac-d (RNC) and the MAC-hs (NodeB) entities in order to fill the NodeB buffers with sufficient data to provide to the UEs and hence be more reactive to throughput variations.

This flow control is based on three main procedures:

• The Capacity Request procedure that provides means for the CRNC to indicate for each session of each UE its buffer occupancy (at MAC-d level).

• The Capacity Allocation procedure generated by the NodeB to indicate to the RNC how many MAC-d PDUs are required for the desired session and the interval in which these data should be sent. This is based on the estimated throughput for this session and the number of remaining MAC-d PDUs in NodeB transmission buffer.

• The HS-DSCH data transfer procedure in which the RNC sends the MAC-d PDUs grouped in FP frames (1 to 255 PDUs per FP frame). The updated buffer occupancy is also given. The RNC may choose to send all the required MAC-d PDUs in a single FP frame, or to space out (within the notified interval) the transmission in several FPs.

In most of the cases, the available Iub bandwidth will be lower than what is required for when dealing with the worst case scenario, where high capacity UEs are asking for large amounts of data at the same time. This may generate temporary congestion situations over the Iub, which would lead to some random loss of frames and finally to a strong degradation of the throughput for the end user.

This feature detects such temporary congestion situations before they happen and makes preventive decisions in order to limit their consequences to a minimum thus improving the throughput available for the end users.

3.28. FEATURE 27945 - HSDPA RADIO BEARERS

HSDPA capable UEs require new features (such as hybrid-ARQ) or new modulation schemes to be supported. In order to enable different levels of terminal complexity, 12 UE categories have been defined with the maximum data rate (at physical layer) ranging from 900kbit/s for UE category 11 up to 14.4Mbit/s for UE category 10.

In this release of HSDPA, UE categories 6 and 12 are supported, allowing a maximum data rate in downlink of respectively 3.65Mbit/s and 1.8Mbit/s. As a consequence the following radio bearers will be supported:

Interactive or background / UL:8 DL: [max bit rate for UE categories 12 and 6] / PS RAB + UL:3.4 DL:3.4 kbps SRBs for DCCH

Interactive or background / UL:32 DL: [max bit rate for UE categories 12 and 6] / PS RAB + UL:3.4 DL:3.4 kbps SRBs for DCCH

Interactive or background / UL:64 DL: [max bit rate for UE categories 12 and 6] / PS RAB + UL:3.4 DL:3.4 kbps SRBs for DCCH

Interactive or background / UL:128 DL: [max bit rate for UE categories 12 and 6] / PS RAB + UL:3.4 DL:3.4 kbps SRBs for DCCH

Interactive or background / UL:384 DL: [max bit rate for UE categories 12 and 6] / PS RAB + UL:3.4 DL:3.4 kbps SRBs for DCCH

Operational impact

For all the services, the new format is SRB3.4.

3.29. FEATURE 27947 - PS I/B UL:384

The following new PS I/B Radio Bearer (RB) configuration is introduced:

• PS I/B UL:384 kbit/s

In the RNC, UL and DL RB configurations are provisioned and managed independently. Hence any new UL rate (or DL rate) introduced in a given release can be combined with any DL rate (or UL rate) which is either introduced in the same release or already supported in previous releases.

3.30. FEATURE 28036 - MOBILITY PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENTS

The following enhancements are introduced:

• Faster Measurement activation at call establishment: thanks to the Measurement information broadcasted by the RAN in the SIB 11 the UE sends its Measurement Reports to the RNC earlier in the call establishment procedure enabling SHO mode earlier, when necessary.

• Support of RlRestore after RlFailure in SHO: this adds the ability to restore a link after temporary RL failure.

3.31. FEATURE 28040 - POWER CONTROL AND RATE MATCHING ENHANCEMENTS

This feature contains 3 improvements on Power Control and Rate Matching:

1. UL Power Control

The UL OLPC algorithm is multi-referenced, i.e. the active transport channels are used to compute BLER and to be checked for updating the SIR target.

2. DL Power Control

In previous releases the DL outer loop power control is limited for two reasons:

• There is only one DL BLER target (the quality target sent to the UE) defined for all the supported RABS (as defined by ASConf).

• When there is a reconfiguration from one set of RABs to another (change of ASConf), the DL BLER target is not updated.

Therefore, depending on the RAB configuration transitions during a call, the DL BLER target may not be the same for a given Radio Bearer.

For Example, if one mobile establishes a voice call through CELL_DCH and another one through CELL_FACH, the first one will have two reference channels (speech + SRB) while the second one will have only one (speech).

The first improvement is to align the object model to the UL Outer Loop Power Control (OLPC) one. The following items have been modified to ensure this alignment:

• Multiple reference transport channels per RAB combination (ASConf)

• A quality target (DL BLER) per RBSetConf

The second improvement applies when reconfiguring the RAB (as in Synchronious Radio Link Reconfiguration (SRLR)), the RNC in UA04.2 is able to reconfigure the DL OLPC on already established transport channels.

3. Rate matching configuration flexibility:

Rate matching parameters and gain factors play an important role in the effective BLER value of one transport channel when it is multiplexed with other Transport channels in a RAB.

Nortel Confidential 39

NN-20500-044 01.02/EN Preliminary March 2006 Copyright© 2003-2005 Nortel Networks

These Rate Matching parameters need to be optimized in live networks in order to improve some Key Performance Indicators (KPI) such as call drop rates, in accordance with other network specific parameters. Therefore in UA04.2, Rate Matching parameters are Class 3 Operator parameters.

3.32. FEATURE 28047 - CALL ESTABLISHMENT KPI IMPROVEMENTS

The following feature is implemented in order to obtain Call Establishment Time and Success Rate improvements.

SRLR enhancement:

• Dynamic delta CFN in UA04.2 is a function of the call type, RRC message, SRB, BLER and/or engineering parameter(s)

• ActiveSet evaluation is based on the last received measurement reports, right after activation time expiry

3.33. FEATURE 28109 - UA04.2 - 3GPP BASELINE & ADDITIONAL CRS

The goal of this feature is twofold:

• To define the 3GPP baseline to be used for the Nortel UA04.2 release.

The 3GPP baseline is the set of 3GPP specifications used as input reference documents for:

• Design (functional specs, high / detailed level design, coding, testing ...)

• Statement of Compliance documents

For each of the interfaces, the 3GPP baseline is defined by the following set of information: 3GPP release and 3GPP plenary number e.g. 3GPP no.24, june04.

• To keep a provision for additional corrections (that can be defined by the standard bodies further to the baseline selected) and to be compliant with these additional corrections in order to ensure correct product behavior and/or multi-vendor interoperability.

The 3GPP baseline for Nortel UA04.2 is defined in the following table:

Interface 3GPP release Spec version

Iu R4 3GPP R4 Dec 2003

Iur R5 3GPP R5 June 2004

Iub R5 3GPP R5 June 2004

Radio R5 3GPP R5 June 2004

The other infrastructure external interfaces (Iu-bc, Iu-pc and interfaces with the OMC) are out of the scope of this feature.

In addition to this baseline, UA04.2 will be compliant with some corrections approved after the above baseline by 3GPP when these corrections appear to be essential for proper product behavior or for solving potential interoperability issues. See the following document managed by the PPS Nortel team for these additional CRs : UMT/SYS/DD/015313 UTRAN and Core Network releases compliance with respect to 3GPP [R27].

3.34. FEATURE 28144 - IRM SCHEDULING DOWNGRADING BASED ON TXCP

This feature is an enhancement of the iRM scheduling feature.

It consists in changing the iRM Scheduling downgrading trigger based on RLC retransmissions counters to a trigger based on Transmitted Code Power (TxCP). The fact that the upgrading and downgrading triggers are different is problematic since Iub congestion can trigger downgrade while radio conditions are good and upgrade is triggered. Therefore, it is required to align dowgrade trigger on upgrade trigger.

This feature also covers the support of iRM Scheduling feature, both downgrading and upgrading, over the Iur.

Operational Impact

As far as the NBAP dedicated measurement initiation, termination and report are not managed over the Iur. The iRM scheduling upgrading feature is not supported when the primary is on a DRNC, and the iRM scheduling downgrading feature is always performed on quality trigger when the primary is on a DRNC.

3.36. FEATURE 28330 - PS STREAMING UP TO 128KBIT/S

The following new Streaming Radio Bearers (RB) is introduced in UA04.2:

• PS Streaming DL:128 kbit/s

In the RNC, UL and DL RB configurations are provisioned and managed independently. Hence any new DL rate (respectivelyUL rate) introduced in a given release can be combined with any UL rate (resp. DL rate), which is either supported in this release or already supported in the previous releases. Therefore, since PS Streaming UL:16/DL:64 is supported in the UA04.1, as shown in the table below, PS Streaming UL:16/DL:128 is now supported.

3.37. FEATURE 28331 - PS STREAMING UP TO 128KBIT/S + PS I/B 8KBIT/S

The following new Streaming Radio Bearers (RB) is introduced in UA04.2:

• PS Streaming DL:128 kbit/s + PS I/B DL:8 kbits/s

In the RNC, UL and DL RB configurations are provisioned and managed independently. Hence any new DL rate (respectively UL rate) introduced in a given release can be combined with any UL rate (respectively DL rate), which is either supported in this release or already supported in the previous releases. Therefore, since PS Streaming UL:16/DL:64+PS I/B UL:8/DL:8 is supported in the UA04.1, PS Streaming UL:16/DL:128+PS I/B UL:8/DL:8 is now supported.

3.38. FEATURE 28847 - CHANGE OF SAI REPORTING

This feature tracks the location (at the SAI level) of a UE during a call, this is initiated at the core network level.

When the Core Network sends a RANAP LOCATION REPORTING CONTROL whose request type is “Change of SAI”, the RNC sends a RANAP LOCATION REPORT message with the Service Area Identity whenever the information given in the previous LOCATION REPORT message or INITIAL UE MESSAGE message is not valid anymore.

3.39. FEATURE 28900 - STSR1+1 NODE B

Where operators wish to activate a second carrier, this feature will make it possible to keep the same amount of power (Watts) dedicated to the first carrier and therefore will let RF design remain consistent.

The STSR1+1 configuration uses one MCPA and one TRM per carrier: one MCPA/TRM chain ( 1st carrier F1) is connected to Main path and a second MCPA/TRM chain ( paired RF chain ) is used for 2nd carrier ( F2 ) and connected to Diversity path, thus STSR1+1 uses 6 MCPAs per cabinet.

F1 and F2 must be in the same band ( 2110-2170 MHz band for UMTS2100 or 1930-1990 MHz band for UMTS1900 ), but carriers may be spaced by 4,6MHz minimum or by up to 55MHz maximum.

This “2 carriers” configuration delivers 33W/carrier at BTS port.

This configuration uses the same cabling/modules as STSR2 with TX diversity.

This feature in not intended to provide dual-band configuration capability.

3.40. FEATURE 29361 - HANDOVER AND RRM CONFCLASS RANGE EXTENSION

This feature defines the extension of the cardinality for Handover and RRM confClass objects to 15. This evolution is requested by operators in order to allow a finer optimization of Mobility and RRM parameters.

Handover and RRM confClass cardinalities have initially been set to 5, i.e. 5 different templates can be used or referred by the fddcells. However, analysis performed by operators showed that extending the cardinality of those classes would allow a finer optimization. Effectively, different environments (residential, high speed, indoor, outdoor, corner, etc ..) require specific SHO, HHO, or RRM parameterization.

3.41. FEATURE 30038 - NODE B CAC: MAX HSDPA USERS PER NODE B

3.42. FEATURE 30311 - RAB BASED CAC

This feature enables call admission based on the up-link cell load. The UL Radio Bearer Adaptation introduced in this release is driven by the traffic variation and therefore can lead to frequent use of 384 kbps Radio Bearer. At this rate the UEs generate a significant interference level as illustrated in the following diagram.

Noise increase with UL 384 kbit/s RBs

The existing Call Admission Control located in the Node-B monitors the resources left for new calls. The point is that NodeB HW can accept more than the radio can support and therefore won’t prevent the issue described above.

The increase of the noise rise contributes to what is known as cell breathing (as illustrated in the following figure) which rends the network unstable.

The RAB based CAC is therefore introduced to keep the level of UL interferences at an affordable level.

4.2. FEATURE 26444 - RRM INSTANCES EXPLICIT NAMING

In many cases, an RRM instance corresponds to a specific QoS class (e.g. Gold/Silver/Bronze of Olympic Services), a specific RAB, RB, services, Measurement pattern, cellColors (Green, yellow, red), Radio Link Condition (good/bad) etc.

This feature brings an evolution in the object model in order to provide explicit naming of the RRM instances, both at the W-NMS Main server and WPS level, including the CM XML files. RRM instances are now identified with an explicit string selected from a predefined set defined in the RAN Model.

For upgrade complexity reasons, this enhancements is introduced starting from UA4.2 but will not be propagated to previous UA releases.

4.3. FEATURE 27233 - SMART ACTIVATION ENHANCEMENTS

This feature describes an enhancement brought to the smart activation mechanism with regards to the handling of the lock/unlock commands so as to limit the downtime.

In the current implementation, the required locks detected during the synchronization steps are performed globally at the beginning of the synchronization, and once all create-delete-set operations have been performed, required unlock are performed. This process has the main drawback of locking resources longer than the operation effectively requires, leading to a non optimized impact on service.

The requested enhancements consists in optimizing the lock/unlock behavior so as to limit the downtime to the operated object.

More information on this feature can be found in document reference [R18] Functional Notes Smart Activation.

4.4. FEATURE 27360 - RNC AUDIT REPORT – FILE NAMING EVOLUTION

This feature allows to historize the RNC audit reports and to be able to compare with an old report.

The previous behavior was to use the same name for RNC audit reports. Once a new report was generated, the previous one was overwritten.

Starting OAM05.0, the RNC audit report follows the following naming convention:

RNC<UserLabel>_<YYYYMMDDHHMM>.xml

This new naming convention ensures that the RNC audit report will no more be overwritten and therefore be available. Note that these reports will be stored on the Main server until they are purged (refer to feature 26885 Smart purge for more information to enhanced purge mechanism introduced in OAM05.0).

4.5. FEATURE 27514 - CONTINUED CM/FM/PM FOR ACCESS

This feature provides the support of newly introduced UA4.2 release and the backward compatibility of the Radio Access devices (UA4.1 and UA4.0) for the Main and Performance servers.

At a high level, the UA04.2 Product Objectives are

Commercial Launch of HSDPA: Significantly increase UMTS downlink data transfer speeds

Product Stability and Quality: Stable network behavior against stress and load in commercial context

Quality of Service: Enhancement of UTRAN accessibility and mobility robustness

Operational Effectiveness: Parameters on-line modifications, call trace enhancements, reduce supervision loss by OAM servers

4.6. FEATURE 27517 - CALL TRACE CONFIGURATION WIZARD ENHANCEMENTS

This feature consists of enhancing the UTRAN Call Trace Wizard application to allow for better management of the Call Trace sessions. The enhancements are summarized as follows:

GUI logic evolution

Add a new operation “List Call Trace Sessions” to enable the user to list the created call trace sessions and their status.

Add three new configurable parameters per Trace Session (startTime, fileUploadSize, fileUploadPeriod).

Add printing capabilities to enable the printing of the Trace Session status and parameters.

The new version of the Call Trace Wizard supports the following operations on each trace session Create/Delete/List/Print.

Template edition

The following operations are supported for each Call trace template:

- Create - Delete - List - Print

Please note the following:

The Trace Records are not modifiable (they can only be displayed).

The Trace Mode parameter is applicable at the filtering level.

The predefined templates cannot be modified or deleted by the users.

New Call Trace sessions Parameters

Enable the user set specific reporting period to each type of the following NBAP dedicated measurement. The reporting periods can be set within the following range [500ms, 2s]:

- NbapDedicatedMeasConfigForCallTrace.roundTripTimeReportPeriodicity - NbapDedicatedMeasConfigForCallTrace.roundTripTimeRequired - NbapDedicatedMeasConfigForCallTrace.sirReportPeriodicity - NbapDedicatedMeasConfigForCallTrace.sirRequired - NbapDedicatedMeasConfigForCallTrace.transmittedCodePowerReportPeriodicity - NbapDedicatedMeasConfigForCallTrace.transmittedCodePowerReportRequired The Call Trace Wizard is 2 releases backward compatible. However the above parameters are supported only on the RNC aligned with UA 4.2 load. For RNC running older loads (UA 4.0 and UA 3.1) the Call Trace Wizard blocks the user from configuring the latter parameters.

Creation of multiple CTb Sessions on a given RNC:

The Call Trace wizard allows the user to setup up to 5 CTb sessions simultaneously on a given RNC.

4.7. FEATURE 27520 - UTRAN PERFORMANCE METRICS AND REPORTS

This feature specifies the list of Utran Performance Metrics and Reports to be build based on the list of new counters introduced in OAM05.0 and managed by the NIMS-PrOptima for W-NMS solution.

Performance metrics are defined by the engineering organization.

4.8. FEATURE 27809 - W-NMS SUPPORT OF IPSEC TO RNC

This feature provides IPSec solution capabilities between the W-NMS solution servers (main servers and performance server) to the RNC 1500 (specifically, the RNC A-Node and RNC I-Node are supported).

The following IPSec key capabilities are supported:

Support to transport mode

Support of ESP

Support for DES and 3DES for encryption

Support of HMAC-MD5

Support of HMAC SHA-1

Manual management of keys ( IKE is not supported in this release )

4.9. FEATURE 27811 - W-NMS SUPPORT OF RADIUS AUTHENTICATION FOR RNC

This feature provides support of centralized authentication for the RCN 1500, using a centralized Radius authentication solution. The RNC implements a Radius client, and for authentication requests are directed to the RNC, for telnet, ftp, fmip, and local port requests, for which no local account exists, a Radius authentication request is directed to a centralized Radius sever on the W-NMS main server.

For the RNC, a default set of 5 roles has been defined in this release, within the centralized W-NMS authentication server, and when there is an authentication request received from the RNC, as part of the Radius response, the appropriate VSA (Vendor Specific Attribute) is sent back in the Radius response to the RNC, to enable the appropriate authorization for the specific login.

4.10. FEATURE 28142 - UPGRADE PATH: UA4.0 UA4.2

OAM05.0 release supports 2 UA upgrade paths:

UA4.0 -- > UA4.2 for RNC 1000

4.12. FEATURE 28377 - MIGRATION RNC 1000 RNC 1500 UA4.2

UTRAN4.1 release has introduced an evolution of the existing RNC 1000 product, c.f. UA feature 24257 “RNC 1500 Product Introduction” described in UA04.1 CPO/FPG.

This feature allows migration of RNC 1000 UA4.2 to RNC 1500 UA4.2.

At a high level, this migration requires multiple steps.

Additional Software download

Removal of no longer used modules, retrofit Hardware modules

Physical and Logical connectivity modification

Provisioning modification

As a consequence following teams inputs and modules are required:

Team: I&C and OAM Operations

Modules: OAM Modules (SRM, SRS, WAUT, CM XML Import/Export…)

The procedure has been designed to reduce at much as possible the duration (around 3 hours), the OAM supervision loss (30 minutes) and the end customer services (10 minutes).

4.14. FEATURE 28538 - UTRAN CALL TRACE KPIS

This feature introduces the concept of reference call to better characterize the UTRAN Call Trace performance.

It defines the W-NMS Call Trace KPIs in terms of minutes of reference call for a list of common activation profiles and for different Performance Server hardware configurations.

It updates the maximum duration of call Trace sessions for different hardware configurations according to maximum NE throughput, CPU quota (defined in FEATURE 27437) and limitations on the number of simultaneous call trace sessions (as specified in the Call Trace System Specifications defined in UMT/SYS /DD/00077).

It defines the rules for activation of concurrent call trace sessions.

4.15. FEATURE 28718 – HSDPA ACTIVATION PROCEDURE

HSDPA is a major evolution of the Radio resource management of UMTS network. It impacts several objects / class of the configuration model.

The Activation Procedure for HSDPA provides guidelines and stepped operations path to activate the feature.

4.16. FEATURE 29109 - WPS CHECKS

A major added-value of the WPS lies in its ability to check the consistency of data to be delivered on the live network. On top of the model checks delivered with the object model, WPS provides a wide collection of engineering checks derived from Nortel engineering expertise in configuring UTRAN networks. WPS has this unique advantage of centralizing the configurations of all UTRAN Network Elements, hence allowing cross-NEs consistency checks.

In OAM05.0, around 250 new checks are implemented in WPS.

5.4. MODIFIED HARDWARE

5.4.1 HSDPA IMPACT

HSDPA is only supported on STSR-1 and STSR-2 (HSDPA can be deployed on one frequency only).

HSDPA is not supported with OTSR.

H-BBU is only supported on iCEM (but mixity with alpha modules is supported). One, two or three H-BBU can be deployed by Node B.

Note: H-BBU corresponds to the same hardware than a normal BBU but running a different software.

Possible BBU configurations are:

D-BBU: BBU managing dedicated services

H-BBU: BBU managing HSDPA

The number of H-BBUs to allocate in the BTS is determined by the number of cells which have different hsdpaResourceId values but ignoring the ones for which hsdpaResourceActivation is false. It is not possible to have more than 3 H-BBUs.

All BBUs on CEM alpha are considered as D-BBUs. On iCEM, H-BBUs are allocated in priority compared to D-BBUs, knowing that if there are only iCEM in the BTS, the first BBU is a D-BBU (for common channels). The remaining BBUs are D-BBUs. This allocation is done when BTS starts up or when a new CEM board is plugged in. HBBUs are not reallocated when a CEM hosting an H-BBU fails.

The mapping of cells on H-BBUs is determined by the value of hsdpaResourceId: it gives directly number of the H-BBU on which the cell has to be mapped. In case of failure of this H-BBU, it is not possible to remap the impacted cells on other H-BBUs.

If it is not possible to map on an H-BBU a cell for which HSDPA has been configured (hsdpaResourceActivation is true), an alarm is generated by the BTS on this BtsCell (eg : only CEM alpha in the BTS).

NN-20500-044 01.02/EN Preliminary March 2006 Copyright© 2003-2005 Nortel Networks

5.4.2 STSR1+1 IMPACT

No impact on RNC side: from RNC point of view, an STSR1+1 configuration is equivalent to an STSR2 configuration.

The STSR1+1 configuration and all depopulation (BTBR1+1 and OTOR1+1) are possible on all BTS that can host 6 MCPA. In this release, this includes the following BTS:

• 12010-1-700 (a.k.a indoor 700)

• 12010-1-600 (a.k.a indoor 600)

• 12010-2 (a.k.a indoor2)

• 12020-1 (a.k.a outdoor1)

• 12020-2 (a.k.a outdoor2)

The STSR1+1 configuration does not impose a restriction on usage of CEM, iCEM, TRM, iTRM, xTRM, CCM, iCCM.

The control on MCPA is the following

• In Outdoor2, MCPA NTUM30AA is not allowed (Outdoor2 requirement)

• In Outdoor1, MCPA NTUM30AA is allowed the following mode

o 30W mode only if there are 6 MCPA

o 30W or 45W otherwise

• In Indoor BTS, MCPA NTUM30AA is allowed in 30 or 45W

• Other MCPA (other than NTUM30AA) are allowed in any BTS in 30 or 45W

In STSR1+1 configuration, 2 TRM are needed, the slot position in the digital shelf of these 2 TRM are identical as in STSR2 configuration.

Note: the 1+1 configuration is not managed with TX SPLITTER. In other words, OTSR1+1 configuration and OTBR1+1 configuration are not allowed.

5.5. HARDWARE BASELINE

This paragraph describes the Hardware Baseline for UMTS products for UA04.2.

The baseline for one system release lists the FRU (Field Repair Unit) supported by the release.

The FRUs are defined by their part number code without the factory revision level, because the fact that the equipment is exchangeable, is not depending of the factory revision level. In case of exception, the baseline specifies the factory revision levels not supported by the system release

The hardware baseline information will be available in a future edition of this document.

In the meantime, would you please direct your inquiries to your Nortel Account.

9.4. SMART ACTIVATION

27233 Smart activation enhancements

This feature is associated to the 23257 feature (Smart activation) available in OAM03.1.

From OAM05.0, the synchronization sequence handles the creation/deletion and the MO update operations differently to avoid long lock periods on class 2 parameters update:

• All create/delete of MO instances are performed in a dedicated group where all locks are performed at the beginning of the group processing, and all unlocks are performed at the end of the group processing.

• Updates on MO instances are performed on each instance sequentially and the duration of the class 2 parameters lock is limited to the duration of the update of the instance.

This enhancement is a first step and will be enriched in the next releases.

11. SYSTEM AND SECURITY MANAGEMENT

11.1. UA04.2 SYSTEM AND SECURITY MANAGEMENT FEATURES

Feature 26234 - NodeB support of 2 OAM IP addresses

Feature 26407 - IPsec support validation on RNC

Feature 26409 - Support of Radius Client on RNC

11.2. RNC SECURITY

26407 IPsec support validation on RNC

CDN Passport IPSec feature (CD 2089) is supported on RNC 1500 from UTRAN V4.2 after rebasing with PCR 6.1.1.

This feature will allow to support IPSec at RNC level. Supporting IPSec on the RNC is required to secure the OAM traffic between OMC-R and RNC CP management virtual router.

The purpose of the present security feature is to improve the security of the UMTS RNC OAM Plane toward the following Network Threats:

• Masquerading

• Denial of Service

• Hacking

• Sabotage

• Intrusion

• Snooping

• Modification of Data

In order to improve the level of security toward the previous threats, we propose to introduce a secured data channel between the RNC site and the OMC site of network.

The secured data channel would make use of the IPSec technology. IPSec in RNC 1500 will support:

• Data integrity

• Data authentication

• Manual ESP

NN-20500-044 01.02/EN Preliminary March 2006 Copyright© 2003-2005 Nortel Networks

26409 Support of Radius Client on RNC

This feature will allow to support Radius at RNC (1500 and above, including AN) level. Supporting Radius on the RNC is required to secure the link to this NE and will allow supporting centralized password management. SE/PE is not impacted by this feature as the OAM is responsible for the authentication in that case.

The external DATA base is the one to be looked at first. If the link to the Radius server is missing, the local DATA base is used. If the link becomes available, the user should be required to re-authenticate.

11.3. NODE B AVAILABILITY

Currently the NodeB stores only 1 OAM IP address.

In case of OAM disaster, the NodeB supervision is lost for long time as the NodeB does not store multiple IP addresses (therefore multiple OAM server).

Having the NodeB supports multiple IP address (as all passport based Node, MSC and HLR, etc) allows development of high availability OAM platform to cover disaster recovery situation.

This feature will allow reducing the OAM unavailability time by 3 to 6 hours.

This procedure supports the RNC 1500 software upgrade for UA42 (Intra release upgrade). This procedure is selected when a MIB build is needed (this is defined by the software release note. A MIB build is required when the new software is not compatible with the existing MIB).

Description:

The upgrade is composed of three main steps:

- The software download (this operation is done in parallel for the target RNCs)

- The MIB online build

- The software activation. First performed on the I-Node, then on the A-Node. The loss of service occurs during the activation phase. This is performed in parallel for the target RNCs (up to 4).

The detailed procedure is presented in the following figure:

27561 Log file viewer for NSP

The log browser gives a common framework for browsing logs generated from different sources. It also gives an efficient means to search, filter and sort large amounts of log data.

The log browser main window has the following three sections:

• Retrieval Criteria area

• Retrieval Results list

• Log details area

The Retrieval Criteria pane at the top of the Log Browser main window displays a list of network element and alarm attributes that you can use to select and define the criteria for browsing your data file.

The Retrieval Results pane displays a list of the log information that was retrieved according to the selected criteria.

The Details pane is located below the Retrieval Results pane and displays the full log record for logs you have selected from the Retrieval Results list.

28404 Automatic acknowledgement of Alarm

This feature allows the operator to automatically acknowledge alarms on a per type basis. For details on managing the auto-acknowledgement feature see the Setting automatic acknowledgement of an alarm procedure

The Auto-acknowledgement function is configured from the Alarm Stream Management Rule Set (ARS) menu. The Rule definition filter window tells the NSP how to treat each alarm received via a set of filtering criteria which explicitly describe the type of alarm. By selecting the application

AutoAck for the filter criteria chosen for a specific rule, the alarm will automatically be acknowledged.

28403 Alarm Forwarding to multiple destinations

This feature allows for the forwarding of an alarm to multiple destinations based on alarm Filtering criteria so that, should a serious problem occur, people are notified in the minimum amount of time.

This feature allows the operator to forward alarms to up to five electronic mail or SMS recipients.

It is accessed via the Alarm Stream Management Rule Set (ARS). The operator may select the action to send an E-mail or SMS from the drop down window, shown in the figure below

W-NMS allows for the possibility of notifying different destinations for various defined events, so, for example, the relevant people could be notified for specific hardware, or for different locations.

28401 Operator Annotation on Alarm type

Using this feature the operator benefits from being able to add additional custom information, tips and hints that can help during the day to day supervision tasks.

The operator has the ability to annotate alarm type (not the alarm instance) from the alarm browser by right clicking on an alarm.

The latest user to edit the annotation has the ability to edit the entire annotation. The user name, the date and time as well as the hostname and IP address of the location is recorded in the annotation.

27339 Persistent Alarm Mgr user preferences

The NSP GUI maintains the size, shape, ordering and column positions of the alarm manager window on closure. These are restored on reopening the window. This occurs even if the user logs out.

27344 W-NMS Grid View

A Grid Layout View is a convenient way to present large numbers of NEs such as those associated with wireless edge networks.

This feature provides additional ways to display the Wireless network. The Resource Browser GUI provides two kinds of views:

• The Topology View

• The Grid View

The Grid View includes the following capabilities:

- In a Grid View only NEs and groups are displayed. They are automatically displayed in a grid pattern of uniform rows and columns of objects. All NEs are displayed in front of all groups. The links interconnecting the NEs are not displayed.

- The grid size of a Grid View can be altered. Changing the grid size enables the user to control the number of objects that are visible in a single window. When a smaller grid size is selected, the information displayed for each NE or group (alarm balloons, labels, icons, etc.) is reduced to enable more objects to be visible in the window.

- Information in a Grid View can be sorted and filtered according to certain options such as sorting both NEs and groups by name, or filtering so that only the ones with new alarms are displayed.

The information displayed for each Grid Layout view is shown in the table below. An x shows that the item is supported for that view:

Release4 & 3: Up to 2100 aal2 Pathid values are available on RNC.

AAL2 PATH ASSIGNMENT TO PMC-PC

Release 4-2:

• All Paths from one NodeB are assigned to one single PMC-PC. This modification is linked to the Hsdpa introduction.

• The loadBalancing parameter is removed. This parameter was set to ‘weighted’ on the Iub interface and determined the way the Iub paths were assigned to the PMC-PC.

Release 4-1 and previous:

• All Paths from one NodeB may be assigned to different PMC-PCs. The Path assignment to PMC-PC is dictated by the parameter loadBalancing set to ‘weighted’.

AAL2 LINK CAC

13.6. IUR INTERFACE

13.6.1 IUR WHEN SRNC AND DRNC RUN DIFFERENT RELEASES

This section provides features impact over IuR for various RNS configurations.

It lists:

• IuR impacts facing RNS V4.1.1

• IuR impacts facing RNS V4.0

• IuR impacts facing RNS V4.2 without feature activation

No impact means that if the feature is supported over Iur it also works over an Iur with a V4.1.1 RNC. If the feature is not supported over Iur then no impact means the situation is not worse on account of the DRNC belonging to a previous release.

13.6.2 IUR TRANSPORT

The following figure presents the Iur protocol stack, subdivided in two parts: the RNL (Radio Network Layer) and the TNL (transport network layer):

RNC AAL2

AAL2 PATH ASSIGNMENT TO PMC-PC

Release4-2: The loadBalancing = [weight, spread] parameter is removed. A new algorithm is in charge of distributing the Utran aal2 vcc over the PMC-PC.

Release4-1 and previous releases: The path assignment algorithm is based on the parameter loadBalancing set to ‘spread’.

AAL2 LINK CAC

Note: The CAC per VCC (per path bandwidth) is not officially supported in UA04.2 since it has not been tested yet.

Release4-2: As an option the aal2LinkCAC bandwidthReference is either the ACR for the entire Iur aal2 interface, the ACR per aal2 interface and aal2 Qos or the ACR per aal2 path:

The Aal2If bandwidth (per Aal2If, Sum of Vcc GCAC ECR) or

The per aal2Qos Aal2If bandwidth (per aal2If, Sum of aal2Qos i Vcc GCAC ECR), two aal2Qos are currently configured on the Iur interface, or

The per path bandwidth is Vcc GCAC ECR.

Nortel Confidential 125

NN-20500-044 01.02/EN Preliminary March 2006 Copyright© 2003-2005 Nortel Networks

Release4-1: The aal2LinkCAC bandwidthReference is always the bandwidth configured against the IuxIf:

ACR = Sum ECRgcac for all aal2 Vccs under an IuxIf.

AAL2 PC CAC

Release4&3: The PC-CAC is active on RNC-IN.

ALCAP

Release4-2:

• Alcap is implemented in the PMC-M.

• Alcap is based on recommendation Q2630-2.

Note: The main difference with the introduction of Q2630-2 is the sending of the path type parameter in the ERQ message. Other additional functions from Q2630.2 are not needed and hence not supported. The introduction of the path type should cause no issue and be discarded by Q2630.1 nodes provided they are compliant to the Q2630.1 compatibility rules.

Release4-1 & previous release:

• Alcap is implemented in the TMU.

• Alcap is based on recommendation Q2630-1

AAL2 COMPONENTS

Release4-2: The IuxIf component is replaced by the IurIf and Aal2If components.

Release4-1 & previous release: Within the Nortel RNC, each adjacent aal2 node (aal2Switch or neighbor RNC) is identified by one IuxIf instance.

QAAL2 ALTERNATE ROUTING

Release4-2: Supported.

Release4-1 & previous release: Not supported.

RNC SS7

TOPOLOGY:

Aal2 Topology:

The RNC supports up to 10 AAL2 switches on each AAL2 interface.

MTP3 COMPLIANCY:

Release4&3: SS7 Stack migration to RNC-IN:

• MTP3-B are supported: quasi-associated mode is supported since UA04.1 (it means that there could be STPs in the network).

• ITU-T and China variants are supported

• When changeOver occurs, non transmitted and non acknowledge MSU are discarded

This MTP3 implementation does not support the following:

• Route management

• Signaling Transfer Points

• Forced rerouting

• Controlled rerouting

• Multiple congestion thresholds

SCCP COMPLIANCY

Release4&3:

• SS7 Stack migration to RNC-IN:

• ITU-T Q.711-715 (1996) is supported;

• Class 0 and Class 2 are supported;

• Class1 and Class 3 are not supported;

• Global Title Translation not supported;

• Congestion Control is not supported (SCC is not supported);

13.6.3 IUR INTEROPERABILITY

26614 - RNC Implements QAAL2 Address Translation

This feature allows for interconnecting a Nortel RNC to an E/// RNC through Iur interface.

AAL2

RNC, AAL2 PATH ASSIGNMENT TO PMC-PC

Release4-2: The loadBalancing = [weight, spread] parameter is removed. A new algorithm is in charge of distributed the Utran aal2 vcc over the PMC-PC.

Release4-1 and previous releases:

- The path assignment algorithm is based on the parameter loadBalancing set to ‘spread’. UA4-1 RNC aal2 Path assignment to PMC-PC section: The TBM provides two algorithms for aal2 Vcc assignment to PMC-PC. The algorithm is selected per UTRAN interface through the parameter IuxIf/loadbalancingMethod set either with Weight or Spread:

- LoadbalancingMethod = weight: means the paths from an aal2If are assigned to different PMCPC in such a way the PMC-PC components are equally loaded.

The Vcc ECRgcac is considered to be the cost of the aal2 Path: ECRgcac = 2*SCR*PCR/(SCR+PCR).

The load of a PMC-PC is estimated by summing ECRgcac of each Path assigned to it.

- LoadbalancingMethod = spread: means the paths within an aal2If are assigned to different PMCPC in a round robin fashion.

Only Spread value is available on Iu/Iur.

• On IuCS and Iur, set LoadbalancingMethod = Spread.

• On Iub, set LoadbalancingMethod = Weight.

Moreover TBM assigned Paths to PMC-PC with respect to the following rules:

• PMC-PC are loaded equally for a given QOS,

• PMC-PC are loaded equally,

• Within an Aal2If, for a given QOS, the paths have to be evenly distributed among the PMC-PCs.

• Within an Aal2If, the paths with different QOS should be assigned together to the same PMC-PC.

RNC, AAL2 LINK CAC

Release4-1: The aal2LinkCAC bandwidthReference is always the bandwidth configured against the aal2If:

ACR = Sum ECRgcac for all aal2 Vccs under an Aal2If.

RNC, ALCAP

Release4-2: Alcap is implemented in the PMC-M.

NN-20500-044 01.02/EN Preliminary March 2006 Copyright© 2003-2005 Nortel Networks

Constraints:

- Impact on the service is summarized in the following table for various steps of the procedure:

- The procedure is applicable to one ROC. If neighboring links towards cells belonging to other ROCs are updated, the procedure should be applied on each ROC.

- Once the CM XML export is performed, no online modification can take place on the target NE(s) until the end of the procedure in order to guarantee that the initial view is synchronous with the Main server MIB.

- Equivalent activity needs to be performed on 2G system for reciprocal neighbours.

- The Cell planning tool and the OMC must contain the same network coverage in terms of managed node B and UMTS FDD Cells.

- Configuration files coming from the Cell Planning tool should be compatible with WPS CP XML format (recommended), or CM XML format;

- If the new neighboring plan comes from a CM XML file, no partial neighboring plan can be obtained.

- Other constraints listed in the document.

Durations:

Timing depends on many parameters: hardware and software configurations, network size, transmission network performance, etc… Provided information is informative only. Durations are given for the Neighboring plan update for a network including 7 RNCs, 860 BTSEquipments, and 2540 Cells.
