58b.2.3 Concurrent Downlink Dual Carrier TBF/ Frequency Hopping

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

58b.2.3.1 Conformance requirement

The Frequency Parameters information element is defined in sub-clause 12.8 and the Dual Carrier Frequency Parameters information element is defined in sub-clause 12.8.2. The frequency parameters may use an ARFCN defining a non-hopping radio frequency channel, or use the indirect encoding, direct encoding 1 or direct encoding 2 defining a hopping radio frequency channel.

The indirect encoding defines the assigned set of radio frequency channels by referencing information stored within the mobile station. Such information may be received on BCCH or BCCH (see sub-clauses 5.5.2.1, 11.2.19, 12.8 and 12.10a and 3GPP TS 44.160,), or be received in a previous assignment message using one of the direct encoding options. An MA_NUMBER identifies which of up to eight stored sets of frequency parameters is to be used. The MA_NUMBER shall use the following coding:

MA_NUMBER = 0-13 shall be used to reference a GPRS mobile allocation received in a PSI2 message;

MA_NUMBER = 14 shall be used to reference a GPRS mobile allocation received in a SI13 or PSI13 message;

MA_NUMBER = 15 shall be used to reference a GPRS mobile allocation received in a previous assignment message using the direct encoding.

The direct encoding defines the assigned set of radio frequency channels by using information contained within the assignment message. The direct encoding 1 references the cell allocation or reference frequency lists received on BCCH for the decoding of this information. The direct encoding 2 is self contained. When the direct encoding 1 or 2 is used, the mobile station shall store the received GPRS mobile allocation for possible later reference in an assignment message using the indirect encoding. Such reference shall be made using the MA_NUMBER = 15.

NOTE: If there is a GPRS mobile allocation associated with MA_NUMBER = 15, the association shall be kept unchanged if the mobile station receives a packet assignment using the indirect encoding (referencing any value of the MA_NUMBER), the frequency parameters are not included in the packet assignment (i.e., in packet transfer mode, dual transfer mode, MAC-Shared state or MAC-DTM state) or the mobile station establishes an RR connection (for A/Gb mode) or is allocated a DBPSCH (for Iu mode).

For the decoding of frequency parameters, the mobile station shall be able to store the following frequency information (see sub-clauses 11.2.19, 12.8 and 12.10a):

– four Reference Frequency Lists received in the PSI2 information and the corresponding RFL_NUMBERs for identification, each RFL having a contents length of up to 18 octets;

– a Cell Allocation received in the PSI2 information referencing up to four RFLs;

– seven GPRS Mobile Allocations received in the PSI2 or the SI13/PSI13 information and the corresponding MA_NUMBERs for identification, each GPRS Mobile Allocation information element having a length of up to 12 octets (96 bits); and

– one GPRS mobile allocation received in an assignment message using direct encoding 1 or 2, consisting of either a GPRS Mobile Allocation information element having a length of up to 12 octets (96 bits) or a MA Frequency List having a contents length of up to 18 octets.

Test Procedure

SI1, and SI13 message sent to MS to indicate frequency hopping parameters.

The SS send PACKET TIMESLOT RECONFIGURE message indicating Indirect Encoding in frequency parameters on Carrier 1 and 2. The SS shall start to transmit the downlink data to the MS on both carrier. To verify that the MS use the new assigned PDTCH parameter, the downlink data block on carrier 1 has the USF assigned to the MS and the downlink data block on carrier 2 is polled to MS to maintain the uplink TBF. This procedure is repeated on both Carrier 1 and Carrier 2.

The SS send PACKET DOWNLINK ASSIGNMENT message indicating Direct Encoding 1 in frequency parameters on Carrier 1 only using legacy Frequency Parameters IE. The SS shall start to transmit the downlink data to the MS. The MS and SS complete the downlink data transfer. The SS verifies that the MS use the last CA information received on BCCH to decode the Mobile Allocation. The SS assigns an USF The SS checks that the MS sent an uplink data block on carrier 1 and a packet downlink ack/nack with correct SS value in response to the polled.

The SS send PACKET TIMESLOT RECONFIGURE message indicating Direct Encoding 2 in frequency parameters on Carrier 1 only using legacy Frequency Parameters IE and no hopping on Carrier 2. The SS shall start to transmit the downlink data to the MS on both carriers. To verify that the MS use the new assigned PDTCH parameter, the downlink data block on carrier 1 has the USF assigned to the MS and the downlink data block on carrier 2 is polled.
