Summary
Overview
System information (SYS INFO) is the message sent by the network to all mobile stations through Um interface
Direction:
network to mobile station
So SYS INFO guide MS and control downlink.
On OMC
System information appears in system information table
On DT
SYS INFO can be divided into two parts
SYS INFO sent on BCCH - SYS INFO 1, 2, 2BIS, 2TER, 3, and 4, which are used by MS in idle mode.
SYS INFO sent on SACCH - SYS INFO 5, 5BIS, 5TER, and 6, which are used by MS in dedicated mode.

MS MAX Retrans
Value range: 1, 2, 4, 7
Unit: Time
Content: MS MAX Retrans is the upper limit of times that MS is allowed to send “Channel Request” in one immediate assignment procedure.
Recommendation:
Set to 7 for areas with low traffic (suburban or rural area) and the cell radius more than 3 km.
Set to 4 for areas with ordinary traffic (non-busy area in the city) and the cell radius is less than 3km.
Set to 2 for micro-cell
Set to 1 for micro-cell with heavy traffic or with obvious congestion.
Set to 4 or 7 for satellite transmission BTS.

TX-Integer
Value range: 3~12, 14, 16, 20, 25, 32, 50
Unit: RACH timeslot (equals to a TDMA frame, 4.615ms)
Content: Used to calculate the number of timeslots in the interval between multiple channel requests sent by MS.
Recommendation: 20 (If the cell immediate assignment success rate is low, set the S with a larger value. Select 32 for satellite transmission, so as to reduce satellite transmission delay).

Calculation of S
• The number of slots (not including slots for sending messages) between originating immediate assignment process and sending the first channel request messages is random. Its range is {0, 1, …, MAX (T, 8) - 1} •The number of slots (not including slots for sending messages) between a channel request message and the next is random. Its range is {S, S + 1, …, S + T - 1}

Access
RACH min. access level
Range: :0-5 (corresponding to -110--105dBm) Unit: :Grade Default: :1 Description:The "RACH minimum access level" will affect MS access. This parameter indicates the threshold level at which the system determines MS random access. Only when the level on RACH exceeds this threshold will BTS regard the access to be successful. When the level of the received RACH burst is smaller than the threshold, BTS regards the access is invalid. To avoid MS being unable to set up call even it is in the coverage area, consideration should be given to BTS sensitivity and MS RXLEV_ACCESS_MIN during the setting of this parameter.

Unit: bit period (1 bit = 0.55km)
Default:
62 for normal cell,
63 for single TS extended cell,
219 for dual TS extended cell.
Description: Maximum Time Advance. It determines the actual coverage area of BTS. When BTS receives the channel request message, it determines whether channel assignment should take place in the current cell by comparing the TA with the value of this parameter. HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD.

SACCH Multi-Frames (SACCH period(480ms))
Range:0~63
Unit: SACCH period (480ms)
Default:14
Description: It is a timer used to determine whether the uplink radio link connection fails. BSS judges the uplink radio link failure according to uplink SACCH BER. (See Protocol 0508, 0858, and 0408.) Every time BTS fails to decode the MR sent from MS, this timer decreases by 1; and every time BTS succeeds to decode the MR, this timer increases by 2. When this timer reaches 0, BTS judges that the uplink radio connection fails. Then BTS sends a radio connection failure message to BSC. This parameter and the radio link timeout (RLT) are used to judge the uplink/downlink radio connection failure.

CCCH_CONF
Value range: 1 Non-Compounding CCCH, 1 Compounding CCCH, 2 Non-Compounding CCCHs, 3 Non-compounding CCCHs, 4 Noncompounding CCCHs.
Content: It is “Common Control Channel Configuration”. CCCH configuration determines the capacity of PCH, AGCH and RACH. This parameter can be automatically configured by the BSC Data Auto Configuration System according to the TRX channel configuration.
Recommendation: When there is one TRX in the cell, one combined CCCH is recommended (in a system with few paging messages in location area). For others, it is configured according to the number of TRX in the cell.
