26.14.11 VGCS-VBS / User-to-Dispatcher Information

3GPP51.010-1Mobile Station (MS) conformance specificationPart 1: Conformance specificationTS

26.14.11.1 VGCS-VBS / User-to-Dispatcher Information / BCC MO call

26.14.11.1.1 Conformance requirement

The request of the calling subscriber to set up a voice group call may specify information to be sent as user‑to‑dispatcher information to the network; in this case the user-to-dispatcher information is included in the signalling for call setup from the mobile station to the network. It is the responsibility of the input function to ensure that the user-to-dispatcher information has a correct format (in particular, an allowed length).

The initial signalling from the originating service subscriber informs the network that a voice group call is required and details the group ID; it may specify user-to-dispatcher information.

The User-to-dispatcher information element is included in the SETUP message.

26.14.11.1.2 Test purpose

1. To verify that upon initiation of an outgoing broadcast call with User-to-Dispatcher information by the user, the MS includes a User-to-dispatcher information element in the SETUP message.

2. To verify correct establishment and clearing of the broadcast call.

26.14.11.1.3 Method of test

Initial Conditions

System Simulator:

1 cell with default parameters for ASCI testing.

Mobile Station:

The MS is in MM-state "idle, updated" with a TMSI allocated.

Specific PICS statements:

PIXIT Statements:

– Way to activate User-to-Dispatcher Information

– Way to configure VBS.

– Way to initiate VBS calls.

Foreseen Final State of the MS

"Idle, updated", with TMSI allocated.

Test Procedure

By means of appropriate MMI function, the user enters a string, which shall be included in the User-to-Dispatcher Information.

Then MS is made to initiate a broadcast call. In the SETUP message, the User-to-dispatcher information element shall be present and shall include the requested string. Then, SS releases immediately the call with a TERMINATION message.

Then MS is made to initiate a second broadcast call with User-to-Dispatcher Information including a long string. In the SETUP message, the User-to-dispatcher information element shall be present with the requested string. Then it is checked that the call can be successfully established and cleared.

The request of the calling subscriber to set up a voice group call may specify information to be sent as user-to-dispatcher information to the network; in this case the user-to-dispatcher information is included in the signalling for call setup from the mobile station to the network. It is the responsibility of the input function to ensure that the user-to-dispatcher information has a correct format (in particular, an allowed length).
