31 Telecom Industry Questions And Answers

21⟩ What is the purpose of GSM DEVISE AND WHAT IS GPRS?

GSM is a circuit switched network which is used for voice

call.for data call we use GPRS.Gprs uses network elements of

gsm but it has two additional nodes (SGSN,GGSN).by using

these two nodes we can connect to PDN(packet data network)

and make packet call(downloadig)

data speeds of gsm 13kb/s

while in gprs 171kb/s

23⟩ In GSM we use MSRN for routing but what parameter is used in CDMA for routing?

In Gsm We use routing number towards the calling subscriber

and tldn towards the calling subscriber , but in cdma the

subcriber will not be allocated any routing number for the

internal routing, i..e.. for the itra cell or intra msc

routing there will be no token issued, but for the inter

msc there will be token only towards called party.

24⟩ What is Crankback?

Crankback is a mechanism used by ATM networks when a

connection setup request is blocked because a node along a

selected path cannot accept the request. In this case, the

path is rolled back to an intermediate node, which attempts

to discover another path to the final destination

25⟩ What is RRC States in Umts?

There are four RRC states present in UMTS .

1.CELL_DCH STATE

2.CELL_FACH STATE

3.CELL_PCH STSTE

4.URA_PCH STATE

WHEN MOBILE IS MOVING FROM IDLE MODE TO DEDICATED MODE AND

DATA TRANMISSION IS OF LARGE AMOUNT OF DATA THEN CELL_DCH

STATE COMES IN TO PICTURE .

IF DATA TRANSMISSION IS OF SMALL AMOUT OF DATA THEN

CELL_FACH STATE WILL COME IN TO PICTURE

WHEN MOBILE IS MOVING FROM ONE CELL TO ANOTHER CELL IT

SHOULD PERFORM HANDOVER THEN MOBILE RRC STATE WILL BE IN

CELL_PCH STATE.

URA MEANS UTRAN REGISTRATION AREA

THE AREA COVERED BY ONE RNC IS KNOWN AS URA

SO WHEN MOBILE IS MOVING FROM URA AREA TO ANOTHER URA AREA

THEN LOCATION UPDATION SHOULD PERFORM THEN MOBLIE RRC STATE

COMES TO URA_PCH STATE .

THESE ARE THE FOUR RRC STATES PRESENT IN UMTS NETWORK

26⟩ What is snmp protocol? How is snmp work with NMS and EMS?

SNMP is based on the manager/agent model consisting of an

SNMP manager, an SNMP agent, a database of management

information, managed SNMP devices and the network protocol.

The SNMP manager provides the interface between the human

network manager and the management system. The SNMP agent

provides the interface between the manager and the physical

device(s) being managed.

The SNMP manager and agent use an SNMP Management

Information Base (MIB) and a relatively small set of

commands to exchange information. The SNMP MIB is organized

in a tree structure with individual variables, such as

point status or description, being represented as leaves on

the branches. A long numeric tag or object identifier (OID)

is used to distinguish each variable uniquely in the MIB

and in SNMP messages.

SNMP uses five basic messages (GET, GET-NEXT, GET-RESPONSE,

SET, and TRAP) to communicate between the SNMP manager and

the SNMP agent. The GET and GET-NEXT messages allow the

manager to request information for a specific variable.

The agent, upon receiving a GET or GET-NEXT message, will

issue a GET-RESPONSE message to the SNMP manager with

either the information requested or an error indication as

to why the request cannot be processed. A SET message

allows the SNMP manager to request a change be made to the

value of a specific variable in the case of an alarm remote

that will operate a relay. The SNMP agent will then respond

with a GET-RESPONSE message indicating the change has been

made or an error indication as to why the change cannot be

made. The SNMP TRAP message allows the agent to

spontaneously inform the SNMP manager of an "important"

event.

27⟩ What is the difference between FER and BER?

Error ratios used in conjunction with GSM speech channels:

· Frame Erasure Rate, FER, is defined as the amount of swept speech frames (260 bits each)

divided by the amount of transmitted speech frames. The speech frame is swept if even one of

its most important 50 bits is observed not to be correct. The three parity bits following the 50

class Ia bits are used for error detection.

· Bit Error Rate, BER, is the ratio of erroneously received bits to all received bits. It is

important to notice that BER is evaluated before channel decoding, i.e. after equaliser. BER is

used for defining the RXQUAL value

29⟩ Explain BTS configuration 4+2+2?

as per the utilization of sector,we can configure the

sectors a,b,c like below combination...

if 1st sector utilization is high 4+2+2

if 2nd sector utilization is high 2+4+2

if 3rd sector utilization is high 2+2+4

30⟩ What is the difference between NOC & NMS?

Network operation center (NOC). NOCs are responsible for

monitoring the network for alarms like as power fail,

Service affected alarm (site down,LAPD OML fault, TRX close

HPA alarm etc)& communicate its field engineer to solved the

problem. if need any support for software base they provide

to recover the problem.

A Network Management System (NMS) is a combination of

hardware and software used to monitor and administer a

network. Communicate with NOC recover the Alarm.

NMS-->NOC-->Field Engineers=Solved the problem
