Add Cell Basic Information(ADD CELLSETUP)

Function Note Parameter Example

Function

Add the cell basic information to a cell,including [Max transmit power of cell], [UL/DL frequency], synchronization parameters related to radio link, DL power control parameters, transmission diversity.

Note

1.The carrier frequency is specified via UTRA Absolute Radio Frequency Channel Number(UARFCN). The relationship between carrier frequency and UARFCN is: UARFCN = 5 x (Frequency - Freq_Offset), where UARFCN is the number of UARFCN, Frequency is carrier frequency, Freq_Offset is "UARFCN formula offset"(please refer to Rel 7 TS25.101).2. The C-Id is defined by the operator, its value range is 0~65535, unique in RNC.

NInsyncInd Num of continuous in sync ind

Value range: 1~256Physical value range: 1~256Physical unit: noneContent: This parameter defines the of successive in-sync indications required for the NodeB to trigger the radio link recovery process.The radio link set remains in the initial state until it has received a certain number (the number is defined by NInsyncInd) of successive in-sync indications from L1, and then the NodeB triggers the radio link recovery process, which indicates that the radio link set has been synchronized. Once the radio link recovery process is triggered, the radio link set is considered to be in the synchronized state. The higher the value is, the stricter the synchronization process becomes, and the more difficult the synchronization occurs. The lower the value is, the easier the synchronization occurs. If the link quality is poor, a simple synchronization requirement leads to waste of the UE power and increase of uplink interference. In the radio link maintenance process, NInsyncInd is used together with the successive out-of-sync indication counter.Recommended value: 5

NOutsyncInd

Num of continuous out of sync ind

Value range: 1~256Physical value range: 1~256Physical unit: noneContent: This parameter defines the of successive in-sync indications required for starting the radio link failure timer. When the radio link set is in the synchronized state, the NodeB starts the timer after it receives successive out-of-sync indications of the number defined by NOutsyncInd.The NodeB shall stop and reset the timer after receiving successive in-sync indications of the number defined by NInsyncInd.When the timer expires, the NodeB triggers the radio link failure process, and indicates which radio link set is out-of-sync. If the value is excessively high, the link out-of-sync decision is likely to happen. If the value is excessively low, out-of-sync is not likely to happen. But if the link quality is poor, it may result in a waste of the UE power and increased uplink interference.Recommended value: 50

TRlFailure Radio link failure timer length[0.1s]

Value range: 0~255Physical value range: 0~25.5 with the step size of 0.1Physical unit: sContent: Radio Link Failure Timer Duration. When the radio link set is in the synchronized state, the NodeB starts the timer after it receives successive out-of-sync indications of the number defined by NOutsyncInd. The NodeB shall stop and reset the timer after receiving successive in-sync indications of the number defined by NInsyncInd. When the timer expires, the NodeB triggers the radio link failure process, and indicates which radio link set is out-of-sync. If the value is excessively low, there are few chances for the radio link to get synchronized. If the value is excessively high, the radio link failure process is probably delayed, and the downlink interference increases.Recommended value: 50

PScrambCode DL primary scrambling code

Value range: 0~511Physical unit: noneContent: Sequence No. of a DL primary scrambling code in a cell. For detailed information

of this parameter, refer to 3GPP TS 25.413.Recommended value: none
