11.2.25a Packet System Information 14

3GPP44.060General Packet Radio Service (GPRS)Mobile Station (MS) - Base Station System (BSS) interfaceRadio Link Control / Medium Access Control (RLC/MAC) protocolRelease 17TS

This message may be sent by the network on the PACCH. The message may provide a mobile station in dual transfer mode or the in Network Assisted Cell Change procedure with GPRS access-related information. The information may be used as a substitute for the SI13 (and in some cases, the SI1) message on BCCH after the release of an RR connection, see 3GPP TS 44.018. This message may also be used during dual transfer mode to inform the mobile station about possible changes in the SI or PSI messages. This message may also be used in the network assisted cell change procedure when the target cell has PBCCH present.

Table 11.2.25a.2: PSI14 information element details

PAGE_MODE (2 bit field)
This field is defined in sub-clause 12.20.

BCCH_CHANGE_MARK (3 bit field)
This field indicates the status of the information on BCCH. The value of this field shall be changed each time the information on BCCH, except for the contents of the SI13 message, is changed, see sub-clause 5.5.2.1.4.

SI13_CHANGE_MARK (2 bit field)
This field is the binary representation of the SI change mark identifying the GPRS Mobile Allocation provided in SI13 and PSI13 messages. Range: 0 to 3.

SI13 Mobile Allocation
This field is encoded using the GPRS Mobile Allocation information element defined in sub-clause 12.10a. This information shall be identical with the GPRS mobile allocation provided in SI13 and PSI13 messages.

SPGC_CCCH_SUP (1 bit field)
This field is defined in the SI13 message, see 3GPP TS 44.018.

PRIORITY_ACCESS_THR (3 bit field)
This field is defined in the SI13 message, see 3GPP TS 44.018.

NETWORK_CONTROL_ORDER (2 bit field)
This field is defined in the SI13 message, see 3GPP TS 44.018.

GPRS Cell Options (information element)
The GPRS Cell Option information element is defined in sub-clause 12.24.

SGSNR (1 bit field)
This field is defined in the SI13 message, see 3GPP TS 44.018.

GPRS Power Control Parameters (information element)
The GPRS Power Control Parameters information element is defined in sub-clause 12.9a.

PSI1_REPEAT_PERIOD (4 bit field)
This field is the binary representation, range 0 to 15, of the PSI1 repeat period. The coding of this field is identical to the coding of the PSI1_REPEAT_PERIOD field in the PSI1 message.

Pb (4 bit field)
This is the binary representation, range 0 to 15, of the power reduction value used by the BTS on PBCCH blocks and PCCCH blocks, relative to the output power on BCCH, see 3GPP TS 45.008.

TN (3 bit field)
This is the binary representation, range 0 to 7, of the timeslot number for the PBCCH, see 3GPP TS 45.002.

PBCCH Frequency Description
The PBCCH frequency description is encoded using the Frequency Parameters information element defined in sub-clause 12.8. When used in this message, the Frequency Parameters information element shall define a non-hopping radio frequency channel or use the direct encoding 2 to define a hopping radio frequency channel.

RAC (8 bit field)
This field is the binary representation of the Routing Area Code, see 3GPP TS 23.003.

PSI_CHANGED_IND (1 bit field)
This field indicates whether the contents of any PSI message have been changed, see sub-clause 5.5.2.1.3.
If not included in the message, the value "0" shall be assumed.

SI_STATUS_IND (1 bit field)
0 The network does not support the PACKET SI STATUS message;
1 The network supports the PACKET SI STATUS message.
If not included in the message, the value "0" shall be assumed.

LB_MS_TXPWR_MAX_CCH (5 bit field)
The LB_MS_TXPWR_MAX_CCH field is coded as the binary representation of the ‘power control level’ in 3GPP TS 45.005 corresponding to the maximum TX power level a mobile station may use when accessing on a packet control channel. This value shall be used by the mobile station according to 3GPP TS 45.008.

SI2n_SUPPORT (2 bit field)
This field indicates the support of SI2n in the network, see 3GPP TS 44.018.
