DMA&DMA Admission Control
Slow Frequency Hopping well known and widely used feature in GSM network SFH means that the frequency of radio timeslot is changing burst by
burst (frequency remains the same during a burst) significant quality and capacity enhancements due to effects9 frequency diversity9 interference diversity
following parameters describe the hopping frequency used in each frame9Mobile Allocation Index Offset (MAIO)9Hopping Sequence Number (HSN)
hopping list is given by the mobile allocation (MA) list

General concept
MA provides the list of hopping frequenciesMA length = 18
HSN defines the hopping sequence to be used (specifies in which order frequencies shall be used)
9 HSN = 0 - cyclic hopping (frequencies are changed in a consecutive order)9 HSN = 163 - random hopping (frequencies are changed according to a pseudo-random
sequence)
MAIO implies a shift defining the start frequency in the FH pattern defined by HSN
9 MAIO can take as many values as there are frequencies in the MA list9 MAIO planning prevents co- and adjacent channel interference within cell, between co-
sited sectors or synchronized cells when using SFH

Static MAIO Allocation, SMA
9 the set of MAIOs allocated to the site is split into three subsets with different MAIOs for each sector
9 common practice is to assign equal MAIO values to all the channels of the same TRX
9 MAIO values must be reused within the site if number of deployed hopping transceivers > number of hopping frequencies
9 MAIO repetition = continuous intra-site co-channel interference = network quality degradation
MA = f1, f2, f3, f4, f5, f6
if no. TRX per site =< 6
no MAIO repetition
otherwise
MAIO has to be reused
MAIO = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

General concept
the degree of control of both co-channel and adjacent channel by MAIO management functionality is conditioned by the applied fractional loadAssumption:9 consecutive frequencies in the MA list
Fractional Load Intra-site interference MAIO selection
FL 16.67% no co-channel or adjacent channel interference MAIO distance 2
16.67% < FL 33.3% adjacent channel interference between co-sited sectors; no co-channel interference MAIO distance 1

co-channel interference between co-sited sectors; adjacent interference between co-
sited sectors; adjacent channel interference within the sectors

Feature description
Dynamic MAIO Allocation (DMA) 9 to increase network capacity number of TRX installed per site have to
be increased over the number of hopping frequencies
9 MAIO reuse within site => continuous intra-site co-channel interference and adjacent interference within sector => radio quality degradation
9 to minimize intra-site interference DMA has been designed to select the best TS/MAIO pair using the common pool of MAIO on site level list of MAIO values is not divided into subsets for each sector, but it is
considered as common resources at site level
9 benefits of DMA remarkable especially in case of instantaneous inhomogeneous traffic distribution on site sectors

Feature description
Mandatory requirements for DMA:9 dynamic MAIO Allocation applies to speech calls only (EFR, FR, HR, AMR FR,
AMR HR)9 synthesizer frequency hopping enabled9 the same MA within site (1x1 frequency reuse) 9 air interface synchronization among cells of the same site (intra-site
synchronization)9 cells within site must have the same HSNs
the assignment of different HSN in neighbour sites is also mandatory in case of inter-site synchronisation and it is recommended even if sites are not synchronised in order to prevent quality degradation in case of accidental synchronisation
9 in case of TRXs supporting GPRS, HSCSD - SMA must be applied when multislot configuration is used timeslot must belong to the same
frequency hopping law i.e. they must have the same MAIO (also HSN and MA)

Capacity of the system can be limited by9 hard blocking9 soft blocking
Hard blocking all radio resources in use due to lack of free TS no more calls can be
established specific for loose frequency reuse patterns
Soft blocking capacity of cell limited by the level of interference (resources still available) specific for tight reuse patterns
Feature description

Siemens Sebastian Lasek/Com SDC NA B1 Jul-06 17
DMA&DMA Admission Control
in high capacity networks with a high number of TRX installed in each cell and tight reuse patterns soft blocking happens prior to hard blocking interference level may exceed the critical (soft blocking) limit at which
the speech quality becomes unacceptable before all channels have been allocated
currently Admission Control for CS speech services is based on Hard Blocking new call request is rejected if all channels accessible for voice are busy
BR8.0 Admission Control (AC) feature is capable to identify the soft blocking limit AC is applied only to new CS speech service requests on the layer with
enabled DMA and to forced intra cell HO (reorganisation, enhanced pairing procedure)
all types of inter-cell handovers are handled in the usual way even if the DMA layer(s) of the target cell is (are) soft-blocked

Siemens Sebastian Lasek/Com SDC NA B1 Jul-06 18
DMA&DMA Admission Control
Admission Control due to Soft Blocking for CS speech services isbased on both:
Speech Quality Bad Quality Probability (BQP) - probability (percentage) of occurrence of speech
samples with FER over a certain threshold
BQP = P(FER > FERmax) FERmax FER threshold defined by operator QoS criterion related to the speech quality in a cell is met if BQP is below a certain
threshold called outage probabilityBQP = P(FER > FERmax) BQPmaxe.g. BQP(FER>2.5%) 5%
Effective Fractional Load at low traffic the reliability of BQP relatively low => decision for soft blocking quite
unreliable

Interdependencies with other features
DMA and DMA AC can be applied only for CS speech services (e.g. EFR, FR, HR, AMR FR, and AMR HR)
maximum of two DMA layers can be configured in a cell depending on the cell type in a single band standard cell just one DMA layer is configurable in case of a Dual Band Standard Cell and EXT900 two different DMA layers (one
DMA layer per band) are configurable

Siemens Sebastian Lasek/Com SDC NA B1 Jul-06 24
DMA&DMA Admission Control
Interdependencies with other features
in an EXT900 or Dual Band Standard Cell, if one DMA layer is soft-blocked, it is be possible to use the second DMA layer precondition: the latter has been configured and is not soft-blocked at the same time
DMA and DMA AC is not applicable to both dual band and single band concentric cells extended cells
AC operates only on the service layer with enabled DMA and is applied for each DMA layer separately
if the DMA layer is soft-blocked, the Resource Management should try to allocate the new CS speech service request on another layer of the same cell
precondition: such a layer has to be configured for this type of service

DMA&DMA Admission Control operator benefits
Dynamic MAIO Allocation no MAIO planning is necessary (OPEX reduction) capacity enhancement in 1:1 frequency re-use networks improved trunking efficiency by considering the radio resources (MAIO) as a
common pool available at a site level rather than at a sector level
Admission Control achievement of maximum capacity at an acceptable quality
9 based on continuous supervising of both the speech quality and system load in the cell
customer is able to control the perceivable quality in the network by adjusting the relevant thresholds
