Configuring the BTS3012 S6/6/6 (QTRU)

This describes how to configure the S6/6/6 for the BTS3012 using the QTRU.

Scenario	BSC initial configuration and BSC capacity expansion
Mandatory/Optional	Optional. The BTS3012 S6/6/6 is configured if required.

NOTE:

The procedure for configuring the S6/6/6 for the BTS in TDM transmission mode is the same as that for configuring the S6/12/12 for the BTS in HDLC/HUB transmission mode.

On one QTRU, one physical TRX is bounded with six logical TRXs. To ensure bandwidth, you are advised to add site chains.

Prerequisites

Procedure

1. Start the wizard for adding a BTS.
   • When adding a BTS for the first time, you can start the wizard for adding a BTS only on the GEIUB/GOIUB in the GMPS or GEPS. On the BSC6000 Local Maintenance Terminal, right-click a GEIUB in the GMPS.
   • If a BTS already exists, you can add a cascaded BTS under this BTS. On the Management Tree tab page, right-click a BTS.

    NOTE:

    • For two cells, the values of at least one of the following parameters should be different: MCC, MNC, LAC, and CI.
    • If you select GPRS Support, the BSC must be configured with the PCU. If the BTS does not support the GPRS function or the GPRS services are unavailable in the cell, do not select GPRS Support.
    • When you select EDGE Support, GPRS Support is selected automatically if the GPRS function is not enabled. You also need to select a PCU from the PCU drop-down list.
    • For frequencies on the same QTRU, the absolute bandwidth between the maximum frequency and the minimum frequency cannot exceed 12.5 Mbit/s. In this example, when setting the 900P frequencies, the absolute value between the minimum frequency and the maximum frequency cannot exceed 62.
