2 GENERAL PRESENTATION

2.1 Preliminaries Each message is described in the same way:

- A general overview, - A detailed description of the Information Elements, - A bit description.

The messages dictionary includes also in this part:

- A summary of all the messages described into the dictionary,

(1) - A cross reference of all the Information Elements. This allows finding all the messages in which one Information Element appears.

2.2 Messages presentation

2.2.1 Introduction All the messages are organised alphabetically under the relevant interface (SMSCB and GPRS messages are gathered each in a dedicated section). Three parts are given for each messages:

- a general overview:

It is a general description of the message including the Information Elements list, the maximum and minimum lengths in octets, the normal and abnormal following events.

- A detailed description of the Information Elements:

It is mainly the use of the Information Element within the BSS entities.

- A Bit Description:

It is a bit presentation of the message as it is received or transmitted over the involved interfaces.

2.2.2 The general overview It is the first page for each message. It includes: NAME field: The name of the message. INTERFACE field: The list of three Interfaces CHANNEL/USAGE field: According to the involved interface, it is the radio channel definition or the fact that the message is transparent or not for the BTS. When the box is empty, the message is not used on this interface. 3GPP-REF. field: It is the reference to a 3GPP technical specification. FUNCTION field: It is the description of the function of the message. This is extracted from the 3GPP technical specifications. DIRECTION field: It is the direction of the message from one entity of the BSS or MS to another one. INFORMATION ELEMENT LIST field:

Page 15: Layer 3 Message Dictionary - Air Interface_b10

ED 01 RELEASED LAYER 3 MESSAGE DICTIONARY - AIR INTERFACE

EVOLIUM 0138_01.doc 02/10/2006

3BK 11203 0138 DSZZA 15/637

It is the list of all the Information Elements. For each Information Element the following information is given: - Mandatory or Optional, - Fixed or Variable length, - The length in bytes, - Some short comments. For a full description of the use of 'M', 'C', 'L', 'O' and 'V', refer to 3GPP TS 04.07. These rules are also used for SMSCB IEs although they are not defined in 3GPP TS. IMPLEMENTATION MAXIMUM LENGTH field: It is the total of all used information elements, mandatory or optional. When the length is fixed for all parameters, a unique value is given. When not, a range is given ("minimum length" - "maximum length") FOLLOWING EVENT field: It is the description of following events (for specific procedure) for the normal and abnormal cases. TIMER field: It is the name of the Timers (started or stopped) associated with the message. SPECIFICATION DOC. REF. field: It is the reference of relevant ALCATEL document.

2.3 The information element description One page (or more) per Information Element (The classification of the following pages respects the order given by 3GPP TS). On the Radio Interface, if the Information element is mandatory, the Information element identifier (IEI) is not present (it is marked with a star). If the length is fixed the length is not present. For each Information Element: PARAMETER NAME field TYPE field: This field is used to give the Mandatory or Optional information. Note: In the 3GPP TS 44.018, this field has been split into two fields designated presence and Format. For simplicity the designation TYPE is retained in this document. DEFINITION field: It is an extract of 3GPP TSs. giving the usage of the Information Element. BIT DESCRIPTION field: It is a bit description of the element with all the needed information, including the sub parameter definition. SUB-PARAMETER DEFINITION field: It is a description (if needed) of all the sub parameters defined in the bit description. PARAMETER ORIGIN - ACTION ON PARAMETER field: It is a description of the action to be performed when receiving or transmitting the message.

2.3.1 The bit description The Bit Description (or General Description) is an overview of the message as it is sent over the various interfaces.

2.4 Summary description This part presented in the following is the list of the messages described in the messages dictionary. On each interface, a specific header is used and is described with the list of messages for each interface.

5 DESCRIPTION OF THE HEADER ON THE RADIO INTERFACE

This section is not relevant to SMSCB nor GPRS messages.

5.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION FOR STANDARD L3 MESSAGE

The header on the radio interface is called header and is composed of three parameters:

- Protocol discriminator. - Transaction identifier or skip indicator. - Message type.

8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1

Transaction identifier or skip indicator

Protocol Discriminator

Message type I.E.

5.1.1 PROTOCOL DISCRIMINATOR

DEFINITION

The purpose of the protocol discriminator is to distinguish between messages belonging to the following procedures.

- call control - mobility management - radio resources management - other signalling procedures. The protocol discriminator is the first part of every message and occupies the first four bits of the first octet in a message.

BIT DESCRIPTION

<----------------> PD

Protocol Discriminator value:

4321 0000 Group call control 0011 call control packet mode connection control and call related SS messages 0100 GPRS Transparent Transport Protocol (GTTP) 0101 mobility management messages 0110 radio resources management messages 1001 SMS messages 1011 non call related Supplementary Service messages 1100 Location services 1111 reserved for tests procedures described in relevant 3GPP TSs (not used)

All others values are reserved.

3BK 11203 0138 DSZZA 29/637

5.1.2 TRANSACTION IDENTIFIER/SKIP INDICATOR

DEFINITION

The purpose of transaction identifier (TI) is to distinguish multiple parallel activities (transactions) within one mobile station.

The TI flag identifies who allocates the TI value for this transaction, so the TI flag resolves simultaneous attempts to allocate the same TI value.

BIT DESCRIPTION

8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1

TI flag

TI value

TI Flag: 0 The message is sent from the side that originates the TI. 1 The message is sent to the side that originates the TI.

TI value: From 0 to 6 The value 7 is reserved for future extension. The transaction identifier for Mobility Management and Radio Resources messages use the predefined value 0 ( it is the skip indicator in this case ).

5.1.3 MESSAGE TYPE

The message type IE and its use are defined in 3GPP TS 24.007.

The bit 7 (and possibly bit 8, see below), N(SD), is reserved for the sequencing of the Mobility Management and Connection Management messages to avoid duplication of messages.

The skip indicator and send sequence number N(SD) are not checked by the BSS.

Note: Case of BCCH and AGCH/PCH messages

The messages are structured as standard L3 messages plus one octet in front, the L2 pseudo length octet, and a rest octet part at the end.

5.1.3.1 Coding of message type IE when accessing Release 98 and older networks Message Type I.E. of MM, CC, SS, GCC, BCC and LCS messages is coded as follows when accessing Release 98 and older networks :

5.2 GENERAL DESCRIPTION FOR NON STANDARD L3 MESSAGE

In some protocols, the structure of part or all of the messages might not always follow the standard L3 message structure. As a design rule, this should be consistent for a given protocol, direction and lower layer SAP.

5.2.1 Messages using the short header format

The messages are structured either as standard L3 messages, or in the so-called short header format.

The value of the 8th bit (bit 1 of octet 1) of the link layer PDU distinguishes the two cases. In the case of the short header, the L3 message is the same bit string as the link layer PDU, and has a fixed length. The following description includes the 2-bit link layer header.

5.2.1.1 The first octet

Bits 1 and 2 are the link layer header. Bit 2 of octet 1 is set to "0", and bit 1 is reserved for the link layer.

A protocol discriminator is the first part of the message (starting bit 8 of octet 1). The protocol discriminator field may have different lengths. The following protocol discriminator is defined:

- 0 RR.

All additional PD defined for this structure shall start by 1. The reception of a message with bit 8 of octet 1 set to 1 when expecting a message structured as defined by this clause shall be diagnosed as an unknown PD, and the message ignored.

As a design rule, a message type field should follow the PD, and of a length such that the PD and the message type fit in the 6 first bits of the message.

5.2.1.2 The rest of the message

The rest of the structure is not more constrained.

5.2.1.3 MESSAGE TYPE

The message type IE and its use are defined in 3GPP TS 24.007.

SUB PARAMETER DEFINITION

Bits 5 and 6 are spare bits in octet 3. FORMAT-ID : Format identifier.

F0 : Frequency 0 indicator. Coded 0 if ARFCN 0 is not a member of the set. Coded 1 if ARFCN 0 is a member of the set.

ORIG-ARFCN : This field encodes the ARFCN of one frequency belonging to the set. This value is also used as the origin of the bit map to generate all the other frequencies.

RRFCN N : Relative Radio Frequency Channel Number N. - For an RF channel with ARFCN = (ORIG-ARFCN + N) mod 1024 belonging to the set,

then RRFCN N bit is coded as '1'. - For an RF channel with ARFCN = (ORIG-ARFCN + N) mod 1024 not belonging to the set,

then RRFCN N bit is coded as '0'.

W : Each non null W(k) allows to compute, together with some previous W(i) the ARFCN F(k) of a frequency in the set (see 3GPP TS 44.018 for computation formulas).

SPECIF

DOC. REF.

Call release (ref. [5])

(1) Sent to phase 2 MS, only during location updating procedure. (2) Only sent to the MS which supports the GPRS services. (3) There is only one Use Case in which the BTS sends Channel Release message with Group

Channel Description OIE and Cell Channel Description OIE:

“If a MS VGCS originator/talker performs an intercell handover towards a non hopping channel,

and if in the target cell the corresponding group call channel is a hopping one. When the talker

stops talking, if the BTS sends Channel Release message with Group Channel Description OIE

but without Cell Channel Description OIE, the former talker cannot understand this message”.

See “reason for change” of 3GPP CR 44.018/301r2.

The HSN field is coded as the binary representation of the hopping sequence number. Octet 6 – (n+5) MA length depends on the relative frequency span of the frequencies in the cell allocation frequency list MA Ci: Mobile Allocation RF Channel i - the RF channels represented in the MA C i bit fields are those which in the "Cell Channel Description" information element are coded with "1" in the CA ARFCN N bit fields. MA Ci = CA ARFCN N(i) i = 1,2...NF (NF = Number of Frequencies in the CA frequency list). For a RF channel belonging to the Mobile Allocation the MA C i bit is coded with a "1", for a RF

channel not belonging to the Mobile Allocation, the MA C i bit is coded with a "0". If NF mod 8 ≠ 0 then bits NF to 8n in octet 3 must be coded with a "0" in each.

PARAMETER ORIGIN - ACTION ON PARAMETER These parameters are transparent for the BTS when received. At the BSC site, the BSC has to provide the following information:

• Channel type and TDMA offset and TN depends of the resource to be allocated by the resource manager.

• H: fixed value according if hopping is used or not (this information has to be provided by O&M).

• Channel selector.

• Mobile Allocation Stored and Updated during system reconfiguration.

6.15.1.2 Phase 2 biband MS For phase 2 biband MS the "Frequency List, after time" is always used to assigned a channel hopping on more than one frequency in the P-GSM band because it is the shortest way of coding frequencies. Note : it is quite likely that all DTM capable MS will be multiband.

6.15.1.2.1 Assigned channel in the G1, GSM850, DCS1800 or DCS1900 band When the assigned channel is hopping on more than one frequency in the G1, GSM850, DCS1800 or DCS1900 band, the Frequency List IE is used with Range 1024, range 512, range 256 or range 128 format:

Bits 8 of octet 1 are spare bits (coded as 0). SUB PARAMETER DEFINITION EPC_mode The EPC mode field indicates whether the assigned channel(s) shall be in enhanced power control (EPC) mode. It is only valid for channels on which EPC may be used. It is coded as follows: 0 Channel(s) not in EPC mode 1 Channel(s) in EPC mode, not used FPC_EPC The FPC_EPC field (octet 2) has different interpretation depending on the channel mode of the assigned channed(s) and the value of the EPC mode field. If the channel mode is such that fast power control (FPC) may be used, the FPC_EPC field indicates whether Fast Measurement Reporting and Power Control mechanism is used. It is coded as follows: 0 FPC not in use 1 FPC in use, not used If the channel mode is such that EPC may be used and the EPC mode field indicates that the channel is in EPC mode, the FPC_EPC field indicates whether EPC shall be used for uplink power control. It is coded as follows: 0 EPC not in use for uplink power control, not used 1 EPC in use for uplink power control, not used Power level: binary representation of the power control level (0 to 31)

(1) Used in the two following cases: i) Used for Phase 2 biband MS when the assigned channel is hopping in the P-GSM band if it is the shortest way to encode the hopping frequencies or ii) used for any MS when the assigned channel is hopping in the E-GSM (and not P-GSM), GSM850, DCS1800 or DCS1900 band if it is the shortest way to encode the hopping frequencies.

(2) Internal handover: Sent only if cipher algorithm is changed in a phase 2 MS. External handover: - Phase 1 MSs: never sent - Phase 2 MSs:

- if chosen encryption is the same as the one used on the old channel (*): not sent - Otherwise (chosen encryption is different or not known) : sent. (*)Note: This information is given in the OIE “chosen encryption algorithm (serving)” sent by the MSC in HO_REQUEST.

(3) Always included, although optional.

(4) Phase 2 MS: Only included in case of synchronous handover, Phase 1 MS: Always included as required in GSM ETR 09.94.

(5) Used for Phase 1 monoband P-GSM MS or for Phase 2 monoband P-GSM or for Phase 2 monoband E-GSM MS when the assigned channel is hopping in the P-GSM band and the Frequency Channel Sequence, after time IE cannot encode all the hopping frequencies.

(6) Used in the two following cases: i) Used for Phase 1 monoband P-GSM MS or for Phase 2 monoband P-GSM or for Phase 2 monoband E-GSM MS when the assigned channel is hopping in the P-GSM band and this IE can encode all the hopping frequencies or ii) used for Phase 2 biband MS when the assigned channel is hopping in the P-GSM band if it is the shortest way to encode the hopping frequencies.

(7) Used for Phase 1 monoband P-GSM MS or for Phase 2 monoband P-GSM or for Phase 2 monoband E-GSM MS when the assigned channel is hopping in the P-GSM band and the Cell Channel Description IE is used.

(8) The length depends on the type of target channel, on the maximum number of frequencies (64 frequencies) and of the MS type:

The mobile station shall use the information in the Extended RA field to identify the Immediate Assignment message corresponding to an EGPRS Packet Channel Request message. T1', T3, T2 Starting time information element T1': binary representation of (FN div 1326) mod 32 T3: " " FN mod 51 T2: " " FN mod 26 FN mod 42432 = 51 x ((T3 - T2) mod 26) + T3 + 51 x 26 x T1' In case the IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT message conveys a downlink TBF establishment, the RA bits are set to 101xxxxx to avoid that a MS considers the message as an answer to a request sent on the RACH channel. PARAMETER ORIGIN - ACTION ON PARAMETER RA: This information comes from the MS in Channel Required message addressed by the BTS. It is used to allow the MS to recognise its own request among those sent by the BSC at the same time. T1', T3, T2 are also stored from Channel Required message Time of arrival (in terms of Frame Number) of the Access Burst given by the BTS in the Channel Required message.

6.31.6 IAR REST OCTETS

TYPE : M DEFINITION The IAR rest octet information element contains spare bits when the RA information of all Request Reference IE is not set to ‘0111 1111’. Otherwise, when the RA information of the Request Reference i IE is set to ‘0111 1111’, then the Extended RA i field is included in the IAR rest octet IE, see below. BIT DESCRIPTION <IAR Rest Octets> ::= { 0 | 1 < Extended RA 1 : bit (5) > } { 0 | 1 < Extended RA 2 : bit (5) > } { 0 | 1 < Extended RA 3 : bit (5) > } { 0 | 1 < Extended RA 4 : bit (5) > } <spare padding> ; The Extended RA i (5 bits) is the Extended Random Access information related to the Request Reference i (i within the range 1...4). These are unformatted 5 bit fields, whose contents are coded as the 5 least significant bits of the EGPRS PACKET CHANNEL REQUEST message.

MA length depends on the relative frequency span of the frequencies in the cell allocation frequency list

MA Ci: Mobile Allocation RF channel i - the RF channels represented in the MA Ci bit fields are those which in the cell channel description information element are coded with "1" in the CA ARFCN N bit fields.

MA Ci = CA ARFCN N(i) i = 1,2...NF

(NF = Number of Frequencies in the CA frequency list).

For a RF channel belonging to the Mobile Allocation the MA Ci bit is coded with a "1", for a RF channel not belonging to the Mobile Allocation, the MA Ci bit is coded with a "0".

For example, if NF = 12, then Mobile Allocation is coded as follow:

SUB PARAMETER DEFINITION FORMAT-ID : Format identifier. F0 : Frequency 0 indicator. Coded 0 if ARFCN 0 is not a member of the set. Coded 1 if

ARFCN 0 is a member of the set. ORIG-ARFCN : This field encodes the ARFCN of one frequency belonging to the set. This value is

also used as the origin of the bit map to generate all the other frequencies. RRFCN N : Relative radio frequency channel number N

- For an RF channel with ARFCN = (ORIG-ARFCN + N) mod 1024 belonging to the set, then RRFCN N bit is coded as '1'.

- For an RF channel with ARFCN = (ORIG-ARFCN + N) mod 1024 not belonging to the set, then RRFCN N bit is coded as '0'.

W : Each non null W(k) allows to compute, together with some previous W(i) the ARFCN

F(k) of a frequency in the set (see 3GPP TS 44.018 for computation formulas). PARAMETER ORIGIN - ACTION ON PARAMETER ORIG-ARFCN, RRFCN N : Values stored in BSC and updated according to system

reconfigurations. PARAMETER ORIGIN - ACTION ON PARAMETER PARAMETER ORIGIN - ACTION ON PARAMETER This parameter is transparent for the BTS when received. At the BSC site, the BSC has to provide the following information:

• Channel type and TDMA offset and TN depends of the resource to be allocated by the resource manager.

• H: fixed value according if hopping is used or not (this information has to be provided by O&M).

• Channel selector.

Octet 3 For the IMSI, this field is coded using BCD coding (number 0 through 9). If the number of identify digits is even then bits 5 to 8 of the last octet shall be filled with an end mark coded as '1111'. If the mobile identity is the TMSI then bits 5 to 8 of octet 3 is coded as '1111' and bit 8 of octet 4 is the most significant bit, and bit 1 of the last octet is the least significant bit. PARAMETER ORIGIN - ACTION ON PARAMETER BTS provides this parameter (or these parameters) according to those given by MSC through the BSC.

Note: If the SI2ter message describes 3G neighbour cells, the last SI 2ter instance always contains

the 3G measurement parameters description. The preceding SI 2ter instances provide the MS with the UARFCN frequency description. Thus, if there are n UARFCN frequencies in the FDD_ARFCN_LIST given by the OMC, the number of SI 2ter instances is n + 1.

2) If the 3G measurement parameters are described in the SI2ter instance, the SI 2ter Rest Octet IE is filled as follows:

CELL_RESELECT_OFFSET

CELL_RESELECT_OFFSET is coded as the binary representation of the "CELL_RESELECT_OFFSET" in 3GPP TS 05.08. It is a value used by the mobile station to apply a positive or negative offset to the value of C2 as defined in 3GPP TS 03.22 and 3GPP TS 05.08.

TEMPORARY_OFFSET

The TEMPORARY_OFFSET field is coded as the binary representation of the "TEMPORARY_OFFSET" in 3GPP TS 05.08. It is used by the mobile station as part of its calculation of C2 for the cell reselection process as described in 3GPP TS 05.08. It is used to apply a negative offset to C2 for the duration of PENALTY_TIME.

PENALTY_TIME

The PENALTY_TIME is coded as the binary representation of the "PENALTY_TIME" in 3GPP TS 05.08. It defines the length of time for which TEMPORARY_OFFSET is active. The usage of PENALTY_TIME is described in 3GPP TS 03.22 and 3GPP TS 05.08.

GPRS Indicator

The GPRS Indicator contains RA Colour and SI13_Position fields. If the GPRS Indicator is contained in the SI 3 REST OCTETS, it indicates that GPRS is supported in the cell:

RA Colour : Routing area color of the cell set by O&M

SI13_Position : 0 SYSTEM INFORMATION TYPE 13 message is sent on BCCH Norm 1 SYSTEM INFORMATION TYPE 13 message is sent on BCCH Ext

PI, CELL_RESELECT_PARAM_IND

0: C2 parameters not present. 1: C2 parameters are present.

PI is used by the mobile station to determine if the C2 parameters which are, CBQ, CELL_RESELECT_OFFSET, TEMPORARY_OFFSET and PENALTY_TIME are being broadcast by the network in this message.

CBQ, CELL_BAR_QUALIFY

CELL_BAR_QUALIFY is used by the network to control mobile station cell selection and reselection. The use and coding of this parameter is defined in 3GPP TS 45.008.

CELL_RESELECT_OFFSET

CELL_RESELECT_OFFSET is coded as the binary representation of the "CELL_RESELECT_OFFSET" in 3GPP TS 05.08. It is a value used by the mobile station to apply a positive or negative offset to the value of C2 as defined in 3GPP TS 03.22 and 3GPP TS 05.08.

TEMPORARY_OFFSET

The TEMPORARY_OFFSET field is coded as the binary representation of the "TEMPORARY_OFFSET" in 3GPP TS 05.08. It is used by the mobile station as part of its calculation of C2 for the cell reselection process as described in 3GPP TS 05.08. It is used to apply a negative offset to C2 for the duration of PENALTY_TIME.

PENALTY_TIME

The PENALTY_TIME is coded as the binary representation of the "PENALTY_TIME" in 3GPP TS 05.08. It defines the length of time for which TEMPORARY_OFFSET is active. The usage of PENALTY_TIME is described in 3GPP TS 03.22 and 3GPP TS 05.08.

GPRS Indicator: The GPRS Indicator contains RA Colour and SI13_Position fields. If the GPRS Indicator is contained in the SI 4 REST OCTETS, it indicates that GPRS is supported in the cell:

RA Colour : Routing area color of the cell set by O&M

SI13_Position : 0 SYSTEM INFORMATION TYPE 13 message is sent on BCCH Norm 1 SYSTEM INFORMATION TYPE 13 message is sent on BCCH Ext

This info element includes : - Paging channel restructuring that indicates if the paging channel is restructured. - Call priority that indicates the highest priority associated with VBS/VGCS calls in a cell. - NLN(Notification List Number) and NLN status :

They are managed on a per cell basis. There will be one Notification List ( of messages) per cell.

- When ever there is a modification in the Notification List due to a new voice group call (a new Notification message is added because a new VGCS call establishment) the NLN is incremented ( modulo 4). The NLN status is not touched.

- When there is change in the content of the Notification message or Notification List due to existing voice group calls (there is a voice group call removed from the list or there is a change in at least one Notification message,) the NLN is not changed the NLN status is changed.

- VBS/VGCS options Indicates whether “inband notifications” and/or “inband pagings” are enabled in the cell ; DTM Support Indicates whether DTM is supported in the cell. RAC Routing Area Code of the RA to which the serving cell belongs MAX_LAPDm Maximum number of LAPDm frames on which a layer 3 can be segmented into and be sent on the main DCCH. It is coded as follows:

Bit 2 1 0 0 0 0 Any message segmented in up to 5 LAPDm frames. 0 0 1 Any message segmented in up to 6 LAPDm frames. 0 1 0 Any message segmented in up to 7 LAPDm frames. 0 1 1 Any message segmented in up to 8 LAPDm frames. 1 0 0 Any message segmented in up to 9 LAPDm frames. 1 0 1 Any message segmented in up to 10 LAPDm frames. 1 1 0 Any message segmented in up to 11 LAPDm frames. 1 1 1 Any message segmented in up to 12 LAPDm frames.

BAND_INDICATOR

The band indicator for 1800 and 1900 associates the ARFCN channel numbers to the DCS 1800 or to the DCS 1900 band, respectively. The most recently received band indicator value is valid for the serving cell. If the PLMN_FREQUENCY_BANDS is set to GSM850 – DCS1900, then the BAND_INDICATOR is set to HIGH, else set to LOW.

6.63.2 BCCH_CHANGE_MARK TYPE: M DEFINITION

This field indicates the status of the information on BCCH. The value of this field may be changed when information on BCCH is changed, see 3GPP TS 44.060. BIT DESCRIPTION SUB PARAMETER DEFINITION PARAMETER ORIGIN - ACTION ON PARAMETER

The value of this field shall be increased by 1 each time the information content is changed on BCCH, but shall not be incremented when SI 13 only is modified.

6.63.3 SI_CHANGE_FIELD TYPE: M DEFINITION

SI_CHANGE_FIELD value indicates which SI among type 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8 (, 9) has changed at the last BCCH_CHANGE_MARK indication. Range 0 to 15: BIT DESCRIPTION

0 Update of unspecified SI message or SI messages: this is used in case of update of several different SI types (e.g. SI 16 & SI 17 modifications when LSA_IDs are configured in the cell)

1 Update of SI 1 message 2 Update of SI 2, SI 2bis or SI 2ter message 3 Update of SI 3, SI 4, SI 7, SI 8, SI 16 or SI 17 message 4 Update of SI 9 message (not used, since SI 9 is not supported) 5 Update of SI 18 or SI20 message (not used, since SI 18 and SI 20 are not supported) 6 Update of SI 19 message(not used, since SI 19 is not supported) 7 Update of SI 15 message(not used, since SI 15 is not supported)

All other values shall be interpreted as 'update of unknown SI message type'.

SUB PARAMETER DEFINITION PARAMETER ORIGIN - ACTION ON PARAMETER

Upon changes of the contents of the RACH Control Parameters information element alone, it would be sufficient that the SI_CHANGE_FIELD parameter indicates only one of the SI message containing the RACH Control Parameters (e.g. SI 1). But, in practice, the BSC only increments the BCCH_CHANGE_MARK value and does not update the SI_CHANGE_FIELD parameter. So the MS will get the last updated SI message(s) once more.

When there is no PBCCH configured in the cell, the BSC shall notify the MFS of any BCCH_CHANGE_MARK modification with the new SI_CHANGE_FIELD value.

6.63.5 GPRS MOBILE ALLOCATION TYPE: O DEFINITION

This information element is the representation of the GPRS mobile allocation provided in SI13 message. It is identified by MA_NUMBER = 14 when referenced from a packet assignment message.

The GPRS Mobile Allocation information element defines a set of radio frequency channels and a hopping sequence number (HSN), which may be allocated to a mobile station to define its channel configuration.

There are two alternative ways to encode the GPRS mobile allocation, using the MA_BITMAP or the ARFCN index list. The MA_BITMAP is used by the Alcatel BSS.

BIT DESCRIPTION

< GPRS Mobile Allocation IE > ::= < HSN : bit (6) > { 0 | 1 < RFL number list : < RFL number list struct > > } { 0 < MA_LENGTH : bit (6) > < MA_BITMAP : bit (val(MA_LENGTH) + 1) > | 1 { 0 | 1 < ARFCN index list : < ARFCN index list struct > > } } ;

SUB PARAMETER DEFINITION HSN (6 bit field)

This field is the binary representation of the hopping sequence number, Range: 0 to 63.

RFL number list (construction)

This construction is a list specifying the referenced set of reference frequency lists for this information element. Note that the Alcatel BSS does not use this construction.

FUNCTION

A CB message consists of a 88 octets of information. The 88 octet block is segmented into four 22 octet blocks. A 1 octet Block type is added as a header to each 22 octet block. The overall blocks are thus 23 octets in length. The message blocks are sent on the CBCH by the network to all the Mobile Stations which are in idle mode in the cell. SMSCB message carries one page of CB information message (made of up to 15 pages) which may come from different sources and gives information (eg. traffic or weather reports) to the MS of a geographical area.
