Table 11.2.9b.2 : Packet Measurement Order information element details

The Packet Measurement Order message contains measurement parameters either for Network Control measurements If parameters for the NC measurements are not included, a previous Packet Measurement Order message belonging to the same set of messages shall still be valid.

The ‘NC measurement parameters struct’ contains the Network Control Order, the NC parameters and an NC Frequency List struct. If the value of the Network Control Order or any of the NC parameters differs between instances of the message, the value of the parameter in the instance with the highest PMO_INDEX shall be valid and all others shall be ignored.

If included the NC Frequency List struct is a deviation list which contains removed or added frequencies to the BA(GPRS) list (see 3GPP TS 45.008). The building of the resulting GSM Neighbour Cell list is defined in sub-clause 5.6.3.2.

The ‘LSA parameters IE’ contains a list of LSA_ID(s) corresponding to the entries in the ‘Add Frequency list struct’. Some entries in ‘LSA parameters IE’ may be empty. The entries in the two structures are listed in the same order and the number of entries (nr_of_frequencies) should be the same. In case there are too few entries in the ‘LSA parameters IE’, empty entries shall be added at the end. In case there are too many entries in the ‘LSA parameters IE’, the last shall be discarded. The ‘LSA parameters IE’ is defined in sub-clause 12.28.

The ‘ENH Measurement parameters structure’ contains information for performing enhanced measurements and reporting the measurement with the PACKET MEASUREMENT REPORT or PACKET ENHANCED MEASUREMENT REPORT message. For a 3G multi-RAT mobile station it may also include information for reporting on 3G Cells.

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

PMO_INDEX (3 bit field) and PMO_COUNT (3 bit field)
The purpose of the PMO_INDEX field and the PMO_COUNT field is to indicate the number of individual messages within the sequence of Packet Measurement Order messages and to assign an index to identify each one of them. The PMO_INDEX field is binary coded, range: 0 to 7, and provides an index to identify the individual Packet Measurement Order message. The PMO_COUNT field is binary coded, range: 0 to 7, and provides the PMO_INDEX value for the last (highest indexed) message in the sequence of Packet Measurement Order messages. A measurement order shall not be effected by the mobile station until all instances of a Packet Measurement Order message is received.

Global TFI
If present, this information element indicates the mobile station to which this message is addressed. This field is defined in sub-clause 12.10.

TLLI / G-RNTI (32 bit field)
If present, this field indicates the mobile station to which this message is addressed. This field is defined in sub-clause 12.16.

CCN_ACTIVE (1 bit field)
This field indicates whether CCN is enabled in the serving cell for the mobile station when reselecting to a GSM cell. It is coded as follows:
0 The broadcast CCN_ACTIVE parameter shall apply if available. Otherwise CCN is disabled in the cell for the mobile station when reselecting to a GSM cell.
1 CCN is enabled in the cell for the mobile station when reselecting to a GSM cell.

The NC Measurement Parameters gives the parameters for the serving cell and may contain frequency list deviations (add/delete) to the BA(GPRS) either on PBCCH or on BCCH.

The NC_Measurement_Parameters struct contains the NETWORK_CONTROL_ORDER and the optional parameters NC_NON_DRX_PERIOD, NC_REPORTING_PERIOD_I, NC_REPORTING_PERIOD_T and the NC_FREQUENCY LIST.

NETWORK_CONTROL_ORDER (2 bit field)
The NETWORK_CONTROL_ORDER field is coded according to the following table (for definition of NCx see 3GPP TS 45.008):

Bit
2 1
0 0 NC0
0 1 NC1
1 0 NC2
1 1 RESET

NC_NON_DRX_PERIOD (3 bit field)
NC_REPORTING_PERIOD_I (3 bit field)
NC_REPORTING_PERIOD_T (3 bit field)
For detailed element definitions, see the PSI5 message.

NR_OF_REMOVED_FREQ (5 bit field)
1+val(NR_OF_REMOVED_FREQ) indicates the number of frequencies in the BA-list which shall not be used for NC-measurements and gives the number of instances of the parameter REMOVED_FREQ_INDEX.
Range of NR_OF_REMOVED_FREQ: 0 to 31.

REMOVED_FREQ_INDEX (6 bit field)
This field indicates the index to the frequency to be removed in the BA(GPRS) sent on PBCCH or on BCCH, see sub-clause 5.6.3.2.
Range: 0 to 63.

Add Frequency list struct contains the frequency list for NC measurements.

START_FREQUENCY (10 bit field)
FREQ_DIFF_LENGTH (3 bit field)
FREQUENCY_DIFF (1+val(FREQ_DIFF_LENGTH) bit field)
For detailed element definition of these parameters, see the PSI5 message.

BSIC (6 bit field)
This field is encoded as the ‘Base Station Identity Code’ defined in 3GPP TS 23.003.
Range 0 to 63

The Cell selection params in the Add Frequency list struct shall be present for the first neighbour cell added by the message. For description of the cell selection parameters see Table: PSI3 information element details

As an abnormal case, if the Cell selection params is missed for the first neighbour cell added by the message then the same parameters as the serving cell shall be applied as default value:

If PBCCH is present in the serving cell then :

CELL_BAR_ACCESS_2 : Serving cell CELL_BAR_ACCESS_2 
EXC_ACC : Serving cell EXC_ACC
SAME_RA_AS_SERVING_CELL : The cell is in the same Routeing Area as the serving cell
GPRS_RXLEV_ACCESS_MIN : Serving cell GPRS_RXLEV_ACCESS_MIN
GPRS_MS_TXPWR_MAX_CCH : Serving cell GPRS_MS_TXPWR_MAX_CCH
GPRS_TEMPORARY_OFFSET : 0 dB
GPRS_PENALTY_TIME : Undefined
GPRS_RESELECT_OFFSET : 0 dB
HCS_THR : Serving cell HCS_THR
PRIORITY_CLASS : Serving cell PRIORITY_CLASS
SI13_PBCCH_LOCATION : Undefined.

If PBCCH is not present in the serving cell then :

CELL_BAR_ACCESS_2 : Serving cell CELL_BAR_ACCESS 
EXC_ACC : Serving cell cell exclusive access support capability
SAME_RA_AS_SERVING_CELL : The cell is in the same Routeing Area as the serving cell
The other parameters default values take the same values as if the structure is present and optional fields are omitted (see below).

In case the cell selection params is given and if PBCCH is not present in the serving cell, optional parameters which are not present shall be affected with the following default values :

GPRS_RXLEV_ACCESS_MIN : Serving cell RXLEV_ACCESS_MIN
GPRS_MS_TXPWR_MAX_CCH : Serving cell MS_TXPWR_MAX_CCH
GPRS_TEMPORARY_OFFSET : 0 dB
GPRS_PENALTY_TIME : Undefined
GPRS_RESELECT_OFFSET : 0 dB
HCS_THR : infinity
PRIORITY_CLASS : undefined
SI13_PBCCH_LOCATION : undefined

In case the cell selection params is given and if PBCCH is present in the serving cell, optional parameters which are not present shall be affected with the following default values :

GPRS_RXLEV_ACCESS_MIN : Serving cell GPRS_RXLEV_ACCESS_MIN
GPRS_MS_TXPWR_MAX_CCH : Serving cell GPRS_MS_TXPWR_MAX_CCH
GPRS_TEMPORARY_OFFSET : 0 dB
GPRS_PENALTY_TIME : Undefined
GPRS_RESELECT_OFFSET : 0 dB
HCS_THR : Serving cell HCS_THR
PRIORITY_CLASS : Serving cell PRIORITY_CLASS
SI13_PBCCH_LOCATION : Undefined.

The following neighbour cells defined in the message use the parameter values of the previous neighbour cell as their default values.

ENH Measurement Parameters:

BA_IND (1 bit field)
3G_BA_IND (1 bit field)
PSI3_CHANGE_MARK (2 bit field)

These parameters are needed to allow the mobile station to associate the removed/added cells or frequencies to the correct Neighbour Cell list. The values of this parameters are reflected in the PACKET ENHANCED MEASUREMENT REPORT message and in the PACKET MEASUREMENT REPORT message.

PMO_IND (1 bit field)
This parameter is needed to allow the network to discriminate measurements results related to Neighbour Cell list modified by different Packet Cell Change Order or Packet Measurement Order messages sent to the MS. The value of this parameter is reflected in the PACKET ENHANCED MEASUREMENT REPORT message and in the PACKET MEASUREMENT REPORT message.

REPORT_TYPE (1 bit)
This parameter is used to indicate to the mobile station to use the PACKET MEASUREMENT REPORT or PACKET ENHANCED MEASUREMENT REPORT messages for (NC) reporting:

If the cell has a PBCCH allocated:

Bit

0 The mobile station shall use the PACKET ENHANCED MEASUREMENT REPORT message for (NC) reporting

1 The mobile station shall use the PACKET MEASUREMENT REPORT message for (NC) reporting

If the cell has no PBCCH allocated:

Bit

0 The mobile station shall use the PACKET ENHANCED MEASUREMENT REPORT message for (NC) reporting if at least one BSIC is allocated to each BA(GPRS) frequency. Otherwise, the PACKET MEASUREMENT REPORT shall be used.

1 The mobile station shall use the PACKET MEASUREMENT REPORT message for (NC) reporting

REPORTING_RATE (1 bit)
This parameter is used for measurements, see 3GPP TS 45.008.
bit
0 Normal rate reporting
1 Reduced reporting rate allowed

INVALID_BSIC_REPORTING (1 bit)
This field specifies if cells with invalid BSIC and allowed NCC part of BSIC are allowed to be reported or not, see 3GPP TS 45.008.

bit

0 Report on cells with invalid BSIC and allowed NCC part of BSIC is not allowed.

1 Report on cells with invalid BSIC and allowed NCC part of BSIC is allowed. In this case NCC_PERMITTED is required in PSI5.

3G Neighbour Cell Description:
The building of the 3G Neighbour Cell list and the ordering of indices within each Radio Access Technology is described in sub-clause 5.6.3.1.

Index_Start_3G (7 bit)
This optional information element indicates the value of the first index to use to build this instance of the 3G Neighbour Cell list. When missing, the value 0 is assumed. See sub-clause 5.6.3.1.
