27、ization algorithms to be used in the Base Transceiver Station (BTS), CTS Fixed Part (CTS-FP) and Mobile Station (MS).

For the
35、 purposes of the present document, the following terms and definitions apply: ETSI ETSI TS 100 912 V8.12.0 (2003-08) 7 3GPP TS 05.10 version 8.12.0 Release 1999 BTS: Base Transceiver Station. CTS-FP: CTS Fixed Part. CTS-MS: MS operating in CTS mode. Timing Advance: signal sent by the BTS to the MS w
36、hich the MS uses to advance its timings of transmissions to the BTS so as to compensate for propagation delay. Quarter symbol number: timing of quarter symbol periods (12/13 s) within a timeslot. Symbol period can be 1 or 3 bit periods depending upon modulation. Timeslot number: timing of timeslots
37、within a TDMA frame. TDMA frame number: count of TDMA frames relative to an arbitrary start point. Current Serving BTS: BTS on one of whose channels (TCH, DCCH, CCCH or PDCH) the MS is currently operating. Current Serving CTS-FP: CTS-FP on one of whose channels (TCH or CTS control channels) the CTS-
38、MS is currently operating. Timebase counters: set of counters which determine the timing state of signals transmitted by a BTS or MS. MS timing offset: delay of the received signal relative to the expected signal from an MS at zero distance under static channel conditions with zero timing advance. T
39、his is accurate to 1 symbol, and reported once per SACCH or after a RACH as. required (i.e. at the same rate as timing advance). For example, for an MS with a round trip propagation delay of P symbols, but with a timing advance of T symbols, the reported timing offset will be P-T quantized to the ne
40、arest symbol. For GPRS the MS timing offset is not reported. Timing Advance Index: Timing Advance Index TAI used for GPRS, which determines the position of the subchannel on PTCCH (see 3GPP TS 05.02) used by the MS to send an access burst, from which the network can derive the timing advance. Observ
41、ed Frequency Offset (OFO): difference of frequency of signals received by a CTS-MS from a CTS-FP and a BTS. The Observed Frequency Offset is measured and reported by the CTS-MS on CTS-FP requirement. The Observed Frequency Offset is expressed in ppm with an accuracy of 1/64 ppm (i.e. about 0,016 ppm
42、). Time group (TG): used for compact, time groups shall be numbered from 0 to 3 and a particular time group shall be referred to by its time group number (TG) (see 3GPP TS 05.02). 2 General description of synchronization system This clause gives a general description of the synchronization system. D
43、etailed requirements are given in clauses 3 to 7. The BTS sends signals on the BCCH or, for COMPACT on the CPBCCH, to enable the MS to synchronize itself to the BTS and if necessary correct its frequency standard to be in line with that of the BTS. The signals sent by the BTS for these purposes are:
44、 a) Frequency correction bursts; b) Synchronization bursts. The timings of timeslots, TDMA frames, TCH frames, control channel frames, and (for COMPACT) the rotation of time groups are all related to a common set of counters which run continuously whether the MS and BTS are transmitting or not. Thus
45、, once the MS has determined the correct setting of these counters, all its processes are synchronized to the current serving BTS. The MS times its transmissions to the BTS in line with those received from the BTS. The BTS sends to each MS a “timing advance“ parameter (TA) according to the perceived
46、 round trip propagation delay BTS-MS-BTS. The MS advances its timing by this amount, with the result that signals from different MSs arriving at the BTS and compensated for propagation delay. This process is called “adaptive frame alignment“. Additionally, synchronization functions may be implemente
47、d in both the MS and the BTS to support the so-called pseudo synchronization scheme. The support of this scheme is optional except that MS shall measure and report the ETSI ETSI TS 100 912 V8.12.0 (2003-08) 8 3GPP TS 05.10 version 8.12.0 Release 1999 Observed Timing Difference (OTD), which is a mand
48、atory requirement. The detailed specifications of the pseudo-synchronization scheme are included in annex A. While in dual transfer mode a class A MS performs all the tasks of dedicated mode. In addition, upper layers can require the release of all the packet resources, which triggers the transition
49、 to dedicated mode and the release of the RR resources, which triggers the transition to idle mode and packet idle mode. When handed over to a new cell, the MS leaves the dual transfer mode, enters the dedicated mode where it switches to the new cell, may read the system information messages sent on the SACCH and may then enter dual transfer mode in the new cell (see 03.64 3). In CTS, the CTS-FP sends signals on the CTSBCH to enable the MS to synchronize itself to the CTS-FP and if necessary correct its frequency standard to be in line with tha
