Measurement Counter
A9410: UP_PACCH_UPLINK_RES_REQ
Description
This measurement provides the number of PACKET RESOURCE REQUEST messages received on the uplink PACCH in a granularity period. This measurement indicates the resource request from the MS on the PACCH.
Unit
Integer number or integer.
Measurement Point
During the single-block packet access procedure, the MS requests more resources to establish an uplink TBF by sending a PACKET RESOURCE REQUEST message to the BSC. Figure 1 shows the procedure for the MS sending a single-block packet access request to the BSC. Each time the BSC receives a PACKET RESOURCE REQUEST message on the PACCH (see measurement point C), the counter is incremented by one.
