The change can also be verified by viewing the RP status. NOTE: Each group can have a maximum of 8 RPs. 4.2.3.5 RPC Synchronization The ECNT board on the RPC generates the synchronous clock and the air frame synchronization signal by extracting clock from the E1 interface signal on the E1IF boards, and delivers them to RPs through the RP-IF boards. As a result, all the RPs that are controlled by the same RPC are operating synchronously. The following figure illustrates the process of clock synchronization and air frame synchronization for one RPC. WLL-RPC/RP-IN/UM-1.0 19June2000 RPC/RP Manual RPC/RP Configuration 4-19 Figure 4-21: Clock Synchronization and Frame Synchronization in One RPC However, RPs that belong to different RPCs do not automatically operate with air frame synchronization. This causes the inefficienct air channel usage. To redress the problem, the synchronization group is created which includes as many as 8 RPCs. Those RPCs are connected by cables as open daisy chain, through which the air frame synchronization signal is transmitted. The signal is shared by the RPCs, so that the air frames of the RPs among the RPCs are synchronized. The RPC which generates the air frame synchronization signal is named “Master”. The RPCs which receive the signal are called “Slave”. The following figure displays such a synchronization model. Figure 4-22: Wired Air Frame Synchronization Group Model The master or slave mode is set using the rotary switches on the front of the ECNT board. When the master RPC fails during the operation, the first slave RPC in the synchronization signal flow becomes the provisional master RPC. 19June2000 WLL-RPC/RP-IN/UM-1.0 4-20 RPC/RP Configuration RPC/RP Manual Upon the restoration and restart of the failed master RPC, the first slave RPC needs to be blocked and re-synchronized in order to regain synchronization. This process is implemented through Netman. 1. From the Maintenance pull-down menu, select Unit Control, and then RPC Sync. The RPC Synchronization window opens, as shown in the figure below. Figure 4-23: RPC Synchronization Window 2. Click the RPC blockage radio button to block the slave RPCs. Click OK to execute the command. Verify the blockage by checking the RPC Status window and the Self Message window. 3. Return to the RPC Synchronization window and click the RPC synchronization radio button. Click OK to synchronize the slave RPCs. After the command is implemented, the slave RPCs become synchronous in operation to the upstream RPCs. 4.2.3.6 Online Trace The Online Trace feature is used to check the time slot status of the RPs. 1. From the Configuration main menu, select Unit Control, and then Online Trace. This opens the Select Online Trace window, as illustrated in the figure below.

The right column shows the corresponding version. This window displays the version of each item in operation. 4.3 Manage RPC Data RPC data include program data and operation data. RPCs have two plane memory areas for the program data and two plane memory areas for the operation data. As a result, the RPC data can be categorized into the following types: 1. For the program data • • PDM (Program Data Memory)-#N PDM (Program Data Memory)-#E 2. For the operation data • • SDM (System Data Memory)-#N SDM (System Data Memory)-#E In effect, the RPC continues to run based on 1 SDM and 1 PDM. Therefore, SDM and PDM have two types of operation status: 1. Active (ACT): the SDM and PDM which are used for RPC running. 2. Standby (STY): the SDM and PDM which are not used for RPC running. Suppose that an RPC ran based on SDM-#N and PDM-#E, the operation status for the RPC data systems would be: • • • • SDM-#N: ACT SDM-#E: SBY PDM-#N: SBY PDM-#E: ACT These data systems can be manipulated through the options under the Configuration and Maintenance main menus. Use the procedure in this section to manage the RPC data. 4.3.1 Program Load The Program Download option of the Maintenance pull-down menu offers the function of downloading the program data from Netman 2000 to the SBY PDM of WLL-RPC/RP-IN/UM-1.0 19June2000 RPC/RP Manual RPC/RP Configuration 4-39 the target RPC and putting it into operation by switching to the new program data at the specified time.

Table 4-14: Edit of Service Data 3 Window Field Definition There are three different windows for this function: Item, Basic, and Range. Use the View Block to switch to different windows. Edit the data as necessary and click Save. A confirmation box appears, prompting: “Current file will be replaced by this contents. OK?” Click Yes to confirm or No to stop the transaction. The operation data in the Item block contain many system parameters. They are for view only. Users should use the Arrow drop-down list in the Value field to make any necessary change to the setting. Each of the system parameters in the Item block is described as follows: Call discrimination code The length of the Call Discrimination Code data field is 48 bits, but the last 6 bits are not used. So the remaining 42 bits are used for call discrimination code. The value determines the RP-ID (CS-ID). And it needs to be unique among all RPCs. The following diagram describes how the 42 bits are split into several divisions. Call Discrimination Code -----------------------------------------------------42 bits-----------------------------------------------------Public System Additional ID Operation ID Code ---------------------------------------33 bits-----------------------------------------------9 bits--------Paging Area Number Additional ID -------------------------22 bits--------------------------11 bits------------ 19June2000 WLL-RPC/RP-IN/UM-1.0 4-52 RPC/RP Configuration RPC/RP Manual Operator ID Code: MSB is always set to "1". The remaining 8 bits are used for Operator ID. The Operator ID’s of all RPs that connect to the same RPC take the same value, and the value is equal to the setting value of this data field. Paging Area Number refers to the area where the call is broadcast for the FSU or PS that has location registration for that area. In effect, PS doesn't need to request location registration while it stays inside the area, even if it switches RPs. The Paging Area Number of all RPs that connect to the same RPC takes the same value, and the value is equal to the setting value of this data field. Additional ID (11bits) of this data field is set from "00000000000" to "11111100000". The upper 6 bits of the Additional ID of the RPs that connect to the same RPC take the same value, and the value is equal to the setting value of this data field. The first 37 bits of this Call Discrimination Code correspond to the RP-ID (CS-ID) of each RP that connects to the same RPC, and the value of the 37 bits is the same for all the RPs which connect to the same RPC. The last 5 bits are unique for each RP under the same RPC, as illustrated below: RP # Last 5 bits RP #1 00000 RP #2 00001 RP #3 00010 RP #4 00011 …… …… RP #32 11111 For instance, when the field data (48bits) of the Call Discrimination Code are 9E 00 00 00 03 80 (HEX), the RP-ID (42 bits) of RP#4 is as follows: 1001 1110 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0011 11 (Binary) Operator ID: 1001 1110 0 (Binary) Paging area: 000 0000 0000 0000 0000 000 (Binary) Additional ID: 0 0000 0011 11 (Binary) NOTE: The RP-ID that is described in this section is used between RP/RPC and FSU/PS. The RP-ID is also defined between WLL/V5WLL and RPC but the length is 48 bits. This RP-ID is generated by the RP-ID of the air interface but is not the same as the RP-ID of the air interface. RPC can translate between the RP-ID of the WLL/V5WLL/RPC and the RP-ID of the air interface.. E1 interface install setting This item is used to configure E1 interface install setting (1), as described below: WLL-RPC/RP-IN/UM-1.0 19June2000 RPC/RP Manual RPC/RP Configuration Bit Bit 1 Bit 2 Bit 3 Bit 4 MSB 8 7 6 0 0 0 4-53 LSB 4 3 2 1 X X X X corresponds to the installation status of E1-IF#1 corresponds to the installation status of E1-IF#2 corresponds to the installation status of E1-IF#3 corresponds to the installation status of E1-IF#4 Installation status: Installed à1 Not installed à 0 Set "installed" or "not installed" for each E1-IF according to the E1-IF installation plan. Set "installed" for all E1-IF’s for future expansion. E1 interface install setting (2) is reserved for system expansion. LCCH frequency (Control carrier frequency) This item is used to set LCCH frequency of the system. The system can use one carrier from No. 1 to No. 77. This value is assigned by the operator or Government. For instance, if LCCH frequency is No.71, the setting value is 71 (HEX: 4D). In one-service area LCCH frequency and Operator ID must be the same for all RPs and RPCs. Channel frequency use control (1-8), (9-16) ….. (73-77) The item is used to set the availability of Traffic channels. Every channel frequency (carrier number 1 through 77) can be set "available" or "unavailable". For Channel frequency use control (1-8) the values are set as follows: Bit MSB LSB 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 X X X X X X X X Bit 1 corresponds to Channel frequency No.1 (carrier No.1) Bit 2 corresponds to Channel frequency No.2 (carrier No.2) ................ Bit 7 corresponds to Channel frequency No. 7 (carrier No.7) Bit 8 corresponds to Channel frequency No. 8 (carrier No.8) Setting value: Available Unavailable 19June2000 à1 à0 WLL-RPC/RP-IN/UM-1.0 4-54 RPC/RP Configuration RPC/RP Manual For instance, if Channel frequency No. 1, 3, 5 are available and Channel frequency No. 2, 4, 6, 7, 8 are unavailable, the values are set as follows: Channel frequency use control (1-8): 0001 0101(Binary) (HEX: 15) Channel frequency use control (9-16) ….. (73-77) are set in the same way. The previous and the next Channel frequency of LCCH frequency must be set "Unavailable" for traffic channel to avoid the interference.

WLL-RPC/RP-IN/UM-1.0 19June2000 RPC/RP Manual RPC/RP Configuration 4-67 4.6 RPC Statistics The function of RPC statistics can generate an RPC traffic report that displays the traffic status for either the entire period and all the RPCs and RPs, or the specific period and an individual RPC or RP. This is a useful feature for analyzing the RPC traffic. In addition, the RPC statistics can also create the RP status report. 4.6.1 RPC Traffic Report 1. To generate the RPC/RP traffic report, click the Statistics main menu on the Client View window and select RPC Statistics Report. The criteria setting window opens, as shown in the figure below. Figure 4-69: Criteria Setting Window 2. Select the criteria for the RPC traffic data to be retrieved and click the Refresh button. After a few seconds the RPC/RP Traffic Report appears on the screen, as illustrated in the figure below. 19June2000 WLL-RPC/RP-IN/UM-1.0 4-68 RPC/RP Configuration RPC/RP Manual Figure 4-70: RPC/RP Traffic Report Window NOTE: Sometimes nothing happens after the Refresh button is clicked. The reason is that the RPC board may have been reset by RTs and there is no synchronization between the RPC device manager and the RPC board. In that case go to the RPC System View window, click open the Configure main menu, and select Set Time. The Set Time window opens. Click OK to synchronize the RPC device manager with the RPC board. After the traffic data pile up in the board the RPC device manager can retrieve the traffic report. This rule also applies to the RP Status Report operation, as described in Section 4.6.3. 3. Figure 4-70 presents the traffic report for each of the 32 associated RPs. The report is organized in such a way that each block displays all the 29 traffic statistics elements for an RP for the period of one hour. Refer to the following figure for the description of each of the 29 statistics elements.
