Overview of BSS integration

1 Overview of BSS integrationBSS integration instructions are intended to be used during the integration of the TCSM-BSC-BTS system in the final location.

The BSS integration testing can be started when the commissioning of the different network elements has been done.

The purpose of the BSS integration tests is to ensure that the BSC, TCSM, and BTS operate correctly together in the GSM/GPRS/EDGE network. When the BSS integration tests have been performed, the base station subsystem can be taken into use.

There are different product variants of the Base Station Controller: BSCi, BSC2i, BSC3i660, BSC3i 1000, BSC3i 2000, Flexi BSC and mcBSC. Flexi BSC has two vari-ants: upgraded Flexi BSC and new delivery Flexi BSC.

In the Flexi BSC, new HW elements CP1D-A ( New processor unit with multicore capa-bility), ETP(Exchange Terminal for Packet Transmission for Packet Abis over TDM and Packet Abis over Ethernet) and ETP-A (Packet gateway for AoIP) are introduced to support 4200 TRX, Packet Abis over ETH or TDM and Packet gateway for AoIP.

There are ETIP1-A plug in unit and ESB24-D plug-in unit. The ETIP1-A plug in unit provides one active and one protecting Gigabit Ethernet interface. The ETIP1-A is rep-resented by two functional units: Exchange terminal for IP transmission unit ETIP and Ethernet Exchange Terminal unit (EET). The EET represents a functional unit of a physical GigE Ethernet interface.

The ESB24-D plug-in unit is used with Ethernet based Message Bus (EMB) as a collec-tor of EMB LANs from the CPU units in both new delivery and upgraded Flexi BSC. ESB24-D can also be used as a generic LAN switch in the new delivery Flexi BSC.

The mcBSC (Multicontroller BSC) can be used in two ways. It can be used as a totally new BSC option for new installations with standalone multicontroller BSC modules.

Thesecond one is - capacity can be flexibly extended for the existing installed Flexi BSC base using the new HW module implementation of the Multicontroller. In this case, mcBSC enables the evolution of installed Flexi BSCs towards multicontroller capability.

Transcoding functionality is usually performed in a separate standalone network element (TCSM2/TCSM3i/mcTC), and the interface between the Base Station Control ler (BSC) and the transcoder (TC) is called Ater. As an alternative to standalone 2G transcoders MGW offers the Ater interface (2G transcoder) functionality. Thus transcod ing can be performed also by the transcoder located in the Multimedia Gateway (MGW).In creation of the Ater connection to the Multimedia Gateway, no configuration or controlling the TCSM is needed. The TCSM and the transcoder in the MGW are con figured differently in the BSC. For information, see Multimedia Gateway Product Docu mentation. The mcTC is used as a transcoding solution for standalone and combined mcBSC cases. TCSM2 and TCSM3i can be used in parallel with mcTC in combined mcBSC. Combined BSC/TCSM installation is also supported here.

As a part of capacity upgrade for TCSM3i, IC209-A cabinet is used to allow the equip-ping of five full shelf wide transcoder cartridge. Cabling Cabinet is not equipped with E1 balanced interfaces if new Rear Cabling Modules are used. TC1C-A is the new cartridge for TCSM3i and ETP-A is the new Exchange Terminal for Packet Transport. The capacity in one S15 standalone TCSM3i cabinet is 14400 channels.The capacity of one S15 combined TCSM3i cabinet in full configuration is 16800 channels, but 16320 channels is the maximum capacity reached, due to the channel sales configuration step.

BSS Integration Overview of BSS integration

Id:0900d8058086ac4fConfidential

Creating a connection to the network management system for BSC2i and BSC3i is described in the following documents:

Integrating 2GBSS to NetAct in NetAct documentationCreating a connection to the SGSN is described in SGSN Integration in SGSN docu-mentation. Creating the connection in BSC is described in Enabling GPRS in BSC in BSC documentation.

Creating a connection to the Cell Broadcast Centre is described in BSC-CBC Integration in BSC documentation.

Creating TCP/IP connections through LAN switches for BSC3i is described in BSC Site IP Connectivity Guidelines in BSC documentation.

For more information on the effects due to mcBSC, please check BSS21341: A over IP and BSS21454: Packet Abis over Ethernet in BSC documentation.

Any detected fault should be reported with a Nokia problem report and the report should be sent to the Customer Service Centre.

BSS integration procedureThe main phases of the testing are executed in the order presented here. BSS integra-tion consists of the following phases:

1. Creating the A interface2. Synchronising the A interface3. Adding DN2, SSS, DMR and BBM to the service channel4. Creating the Abis interface5. Creating X.25 or LAN connections. See Integrating 2GBSS to NetAct in NetAct doc-

umentation (for BSC2i and BSC3i).6. Initialising base stations7. Testing BSS integrationTest logs can be filled in during the testing.

A interface protocol layers

2 A interface protocol layersIn the ETSI environment, the A interface is defined in accordance with CCITT#7 Signal-ling System. In the ANSI environment, the A interface is defined in accordance with ANSI SS7 Signalling System. Three protocol layers are used: the Message Transfer Part (MTP), the Signalling Connection Control Part (SCCP), and the BSS Application Part (BSSAP; with ETSI) or the Radio System Application Part (RSAP; with ANSI), as shown in the figure below.

Figure 1 Three layers of CCS7/SS7 signalling between MSC and BSC

The MTP's task is to provide a reliable means of data transmission. It consists of a sig-nalling link, a signalling link set, and a signalling route set.

The SCCP complements the services of the MTP by providing connectionless and con-nection-oriented network services. It consists of SCCP subsystems.

The BSSAP/RSAP uses the services of the MTP and the SCCP. It takes care of actual GSM/DCS-related interaction between the MSC and the BSS. Typical tasks of the BSSAP/RSAP are for example call control, location updates, handover management, and paging. It has no counterparts in terms of BSC MMI but is created along with the SCCP.

Signalling transport over IP (SIGTRAN) contains several user adaptation layers, two of which are : the MTP3 User Adaptation Layer (M3UA) and the Q.921 User Adaptation Layer (IUA).

M3UA is a protocol for supporting the transport of any SS7 MTP3-User signalling (for example, ISDN user part (ISUP) and Signalling Connection Control Part SCCP mes-sages) over IP using the services of the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP). Also, provision is made for protocol elements that enable a seamless operation of the MTP3-User peers in the SS7 and IP domains.

IUA is a protocol supporting the transport of Q.921 user signalling over IP. It uses the services of the SCTP. The IUA adaptation enables an MSS controlling a Private Auto-matic Branch Exchange (PBX) even if the MSS does not have Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) connectivity.

BSS Integration A interface configuration with TCSM2 and TCSM3i

Id:0900d805805ceddfConfidential

3 A interface configuration with TCSM2 and TCSM3iThe A interface configuration can be made in many different ways depending on the equipment, or capacity and redundancy requirements. For example, the transcoder can be either TCSM2 or TCSM3i. Likewise, it is possible to implement only one PCM, E1 (used in ETSI environment), or T1 (used in ANSI environment) line between the MSC and the BSC or to use several separate PCM lines for redundancy or capacity purposes. The following figure illustrates an A interface configuration example.

With both TCSM2 and TCSM3i, the A interface is always multiplexed.

Figure 2 A interface configuration example

Signalling can also be performed using IETF signalling transmission (SIGTRAN). For more information, see SIGTRAN Configuration for the A Interface.

Multipoint A Interface enables one BSC to be connected to several core network elements (MSCs or MSC Servers). Even though one core network element fails, the network can stay operational with reduced capacity. For more information, see Multi-point A Interface in BSC.

TCSM3i for combined BSC/TCSM installationIn combined BSC/TCSM installation, no E1 or T1 interfaces are used as Ater interfaces between the BSC and TCSM3i. Instead, internal serial broadband interfaces (SBI) or Hotlinks are used. STM-1/OC-3 or IP/Ethernet (GigE) interfaces are used as external A interfaces.

A interface configuration with TCSM2 and TCSM3i

In TCSM3i for combined BSC/TCSM installation with a Flexi BSC, a mixed ETS2 and ETIP1-A configuration (STMU and SET, and ETIP and EET units) is possible in A-inter-faces.

TCSM3i

The TCSM3i uses an allocation with 16 kbit/s traffic channels for the use of HR speech, FR speech, EFR speech, AMR (FR and HR) speech traffic, and FR data traffic. An example is shown in the table below.

DN9812243 15



The basic requirement for high-speed circuit-switched data (HSCSD) data transmission capability is that the associated BSC is equipped with an 8 kbit/s switching network or Bit Group Switch. Channel allocations for TCSM3i configured to transmit the data exclu-sively at the maximum rate of 32 kbit/s (type H) and 64 kbit/s (type I) are shown in the following tables. The same allocations accept also speech channels (FR/EFR, HR) instead of data, allowing an optimised use of transmission capacity for mixed speech/data use. The capacity unit reserved for an HSCSD connection on the A-inter-face is:

832 kbit/s (4 bits of a timeslot) for a 2 16 kbit/s channel 864 kbit/s (an entire timeslot) for a 4 16 kbit/s channel

DN9812243 17



TCSM2, ETSIProvided that the BSC is equipped with an 8 Kbit group switch (GSWB), four separate A interface lines can be put into one highway PCM, making it possible to have up to 120 full-rate speech channels in one highway PCM cable. In half-rate configuration the maximum number of speech channels is 210. The combination of half-rate and full-rate can also be used.

The maximum efficiency is achieved if the recommendation for time slot allocation is followed (shown in the figure Time slot allocation for full-rate traffic on Ater 2 Mbit/s inter-face with the TCSM2 (ETSI)).

Signalling channels, and possibly network management system connections, are always allocated beginning from the end of the frame. This optimises the number of the traffic channels available for the fourth tributary. This is due to the fact that only the time slots preceding the first signalling time slot can be used as speech channels in the fourth tributary.

For example, if signalling links are allocated to time slots 31 and 27, only the time slots 25 and 26 are available for the fourth tributary - even if time slots 30, 29, and 28 are not used at all.

TCSM2, ANSIBecause of multiplexing, four A interface T1s can be put to one highway T1, making it possible to have up to 96 traffic channels between the transcoder and the BSC as shown in figure A interface time slot allocation (ANSI). However, one channel is required for the LAPD channel and normally one 64 kbit time slot is used for SS7 signalling. This leaves 91 channels for traffic.

ET indexes in BSC

4 ET indexes in BSCIn new delivery Flexi BSC both STM-1/OC-3 interfaces (optical) and IP/Ethernet (GigE) interfaces (optical or electrical) are supported in the whole cabinet wide cartridge mechanics together with E1/T1 interfaces. Cartridge mechanics is divided to sub car-tridges, which are used same way as smaller cartridges in earlier delivered BSCs. In upgraded Flexi BSC one-cabinet configuration is supported with full range (16+16) of STM-1/OC-3 interfaces and IP/Ethernet (8 + 8 GigE) interfaces. In the upgraded Flexi BSC it is possible to extend the configuration with a second cabinet also to full support for 800 E1/T1 interfaces to earlier delivered BSCs.

The Exchange Terminals (ETs) of the BSC3i 1000/2000 and the upgraded Flexi BSC are housed in GT6C-A and/or GT4C-A cartridges. One GT4C-A cartridge can contain up to eight ET plug-in units and a GT6C-A cartridge can contain up to four ET plug-in units. ET16 plug-in units can be installed to six ET cartridges with indexes ETC 0 to ETC 5 in BSC3i 2000. Additionally, ET16 units can also be equipped to GTIC cartridges to achieve a maximum of 800 E1/T1 interfaces amount in the two-cabinet configuration and 384 E1/T1 interface amount in the one-cabinet configuration.

The ET16 and ETIP1-A units are installed to GTIC cartridge starting from the right in mixed ET16 or ETIP1-A and ETS2 equipping. In the incoming direction, the ET decodes the 2048 Mbit/s in European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) signal or 1544 Mbit/s American National Standards Institute (ANSI) signal of a circuit into data signals.

In the outgoing direction, the ET receives a binary PCM signal from the switching network and generates the PCM frame structure. The resulting signal is converted into a line code (HDB3 in the ETSI environment, B8ZS or AMI in the ANSI environment) and transmitted further onto the 2048 Mbit/s (ETSI) or 1544 Mbit/s (ANSI) circuit.

The ETS2 plug-in unit contains up to two active and two redundant optical STM-1/OC-3 interfaces. All optical components have 2N redundancy for transmission protection. A maximum of 16 active optical interface can be achieved with 8 plug-in units, if two active interface per unit is used or with 16 plug-in units if one active interface is used per unit.

The ETS2 units are equipped to GTIC cartridges in the first equipment cabinet. The GTIC cartridges can also be used for E1/T1 connectivity with ET16 units. The ETS2 unit is responsible for framing, mapping, and multiplexing of PCMs into channelised way in optical interfaces (VC12). One STM-1 interface consists of 63 E1s (ETSI) and one OC-3 interface consists of 84 T1s (ANSI). PCMs are handled in the same way as ETs in the ET16 plug-in unit.

Equipment protection for ETS2 (MSP 1 + 1 protective units) is provided if two STMU units (functional units for ETS2) are configured with consecutive indexes. For example, STMU-0 and STMU-1 comprise a pair of STMUs.

Integrated E1/T1 over IP application software offers an integrated solution for BSC3i and TCSM3i based transcoders to send/receive TDM frame timeslots via a packet-switched network. Integrated E1/T1 over IP is based on the circuit emulation service over packet-switched networks (CESoPSN) technology and it is implemented in the ETIP1-A plug-in unit. The ETIP1-A can be equipped to the ETS2 and ET16 cartridges to replace the E1/T1 or STM-1/OC-3 unit. This improves the BSC connectivity. The operator has more alternatives to select transmission technology in different interfaces of the BSC environment. The ETIP-A plug-in unit can be used in the Abis and Ater inter-faces in the BSC3i and in the A and Ater interfaces in TCSM3i based transcoders. The

TCSM3i for combined BSC/TCSM installationThe TCSM3i for combined BSC/TCSM installation refers to a way to configure TCSM3i by equipping TCSM3i with a BSC3i or Flexi BSC. The combined BSC/TCSM consists of one BSC3i 1000/2000/upgraded or new delivery Flexi BSC cabinet (also called master BSC) and one TCSM3i cabinet.

Note that when two or more TCSM3i cabinets are used the master BSC needs to be BSC3i 1000 or Flexi BSC.

ET indexes in BSC

The A interface is implemented by using the STM-1/OC-3 (SDH/SONET) or IP/Ethernet (GigE) interfaces instead of the ET16 (E1/T1) interface. Furthermore, the ET16 units in BSC's and TCSM3i's Ater interface are not used in this configuration.

Two duplicated hotlink cables are used between the BSC and the TCSM3i cabinet. In this application each hotlink cable carries 48 2Mbit/s PCM lines. The capacity of one STM-1 interface is 63 E1 PCMs and one OC-3 interface 84 T1 PCMs. BSC software treats STM-1/OC-3 interfaces as normal E1/T1 PCM lines.

The TCSM3i for combined BSC/TCSM installation with upgraded Flexi BSC brings some modifications to the structure of the BSC3i and TCSM3i: In BSC3i, the TCSA 0 cabinet replaces BCSU 6, the TCSA 1 cabinet replaces BCSU 5, and the TCSA 2 cabinet replaces BCSU 4 in the Group Switch GSW2KB. In TCSM3i, control PCM cables for STMUs/ETIPs both in the TCSA 0 and in the TCSA 1 cabinet are moved to other locations in the GSW2KB. Control PCM cables and control PCM allocations for STMUs/ETIPs in the TCSA 2 cabinet remain the same.

In the TCSM3i for combined BSC/TCSM installation, the ETIP1-A plug-in unit is con-nected to the BSC GSW by a hotlink and it is controlled by a separate LAPD link.

The capacity of one ETIP1-A plug-in unit in the TCSM3i for combined BSC/TCSM instal-lation environment is 126 E1 PCMs or 168 T1 PCMs.
