Cell Parameter Selection
Method
(cellParameterSelectionMethod
)
Determines whether values for cell parameters such as UARFCN,
LAC, RAC, and CPICH TX Power are selected by Network Listen
(NWL) or are configured via the management system.
The default is configuration by the management system. In this
case, cell parameters should be determined through planning,
preferably informed by on site measurements. This is particularly
appropriate for the enterprise APs, nano3G E8 APs and nano3G
E16 APs and for nano3G S8 APs used in enterprise environments.
Configuration by NWL can be selected for APs that are deployed
for plug-and-play installation by end users - typically only nano3G
S8 APs. In this case, the AP configuration must include extended
LAC/RAC and RF Parameter Candidate Lists. This is so that the
AP can choose the best settings from the candidate lists according
to its RF environment.
LAC (lac) Location Area Code. For configuration by Network Listen (NWL),
an AP needs a list of candidate LACs that can be chosen NWL.
NWL will look for the least conflicting option.
RAC (rac) Routing Area Code. For configuration by Network Listen (NWL),
an AP needs a list of candidate RACs that can be chosen by NWL.
NWL will look for the least conflicting option.
SAI SAC (sac) This is the SAI SAC (Service Access Code) which can be used by
the billing system. If this is not used by the billing system, it is
recommended to set this to 1.
SAI LAC (saiLac) SAI Location Area Code which can be used by the billing system.
This is a different value than the LAC set in the
lacRacCandidateList for an individual AP. If this is not used by the
billing system, it is recommended to set this to 1.
UARFCN within
(rfParamsCandidateList)
The frequency on which the AP will operate. For configuration by
Network Listen (NWL), an AP needs a list of candidate UARFCNs
that can be chosen by NWL.NWL will look for the least conflicting
option.
Scrambling code
within (rfParamsCandidateList)
The scrambling code assigned to the AP. For configuration by
Network Listen (NWL), an AP needs a list of candidate Scrambling
Codes that can be chosen by NWL.NWL will look for the least
conflicting option.
RSSI scan bands
(rssiScanBands_002)
Specify which bands to scan with Network Listen, when
performing RSSI detect and BCCH decode tests. Leave this empty
to scan all bands supported by the AP hardware.
Lat, Long and LCS uncertainty
(lcsLatitude), (lcsLongitude),
(lcsUncertainty)
Latitude and longitude of the APs installation site, for RANAP
location reporting
