6. If the destination cell triggered by BSC is an external cell, the CGI of the destination cell and service cell is sent to MSC with the handover request. 7. MSC first goes to Location Area Cell Table to search the cell that matches the CGI of the destination cell. Once the cell is found, confirm which BSC is belong to. Send the handover request message to this BSC. 8. If there is no CGI of the destination cell in Location Area Cell Table, go to adjacent MSC table and find the destination MSC, then send the handover request message to this MSC.

CGI, BCCH and BSIC in External Cell Description Table are different from those in the opposite BSC.
The Destination signaling point of BSC in MSC Location Area Cell Table is incorrect.
Report Preprocess is enable , if the link configuration is 15:1, the setting is once per second. At this time, for the handovers that needs P/N verdict, such as boundary handover, layer handover, PBGT handover and concentric handover, the P/N verdict time should be shortened.
BSC can not process the CGI in lower case. Therefore it must be input
BSC does not recognize CI as FFFF cell, otherwise the handover

Conclusion: The symptom is that the uplink and downlink at UM port are not balanced so the opposite hears low quality voice.
Fault Description: in a cell of a 900M monofrequency network, the success ratio of in-cell wireless handover in BSC is low (1030), which is the same as handover success ratio.
Analysis: Since the wireless handover ratio is low, check data, coverage and interference. Data: co-frequency of BCCH and co-BSIC Coverage: signal is weak, uplink and downlink are not balanced. Interference: high BER, MS can not be accessed or can not receive signals correctly.
Conclusion: hardware fault results in poor signal, and the success ratio of wireless handover is low.
Analysis: 1. Check whether it is attributed to LAPD updating; 2. Analyze traffic statistics, the main causes of the failure and locate the problem.

some indexes are not lowered. Upgrading is not the cause. 2. Analyze traffic statistics:
Congested cells are mostly at Site A and Site B. Their traffics are The cells where handover success ratio is lowered are mostly at Site A,
B, C, D and E and the main cause of the failure is timer timeout. 3. Check alarm: At 19:31 of September 18, the clock systems of Site A and Site B gave
Conclusion: the problem in clock system will lower the handover success ratio. Pay attention to the alarm console and the slow switchover of the clock system.
Analysis: Since in-BSC handover request times is 0 but the out handover is normal. Carefully check the out-cell handover signaling and handover data at S BSC side

that after receiving HO-Number, Huawei MSC never sends IAI (Initial Address
Information). 5. Check HO-Number message from the opposite end to find that the handover code format is 130********(only a number of mobile telephone, no any prefix). But this mobile company requires that roaming/handover between exchanges should be in the format: 00+country code+roaming/handover number. In addition, Huawei equipment does not recognize the handover number without 00+country code. Therefore the signaling is halted. 6. Coordinate with N, asking them to add 00+country code before the handover number. Then out-BSC handover is normal.
Conclusion: Problems can be located quickly and accurately familiar with the signaling flow of handovers. if you are

Conclusion: There are often many problems in coordination between the equipment of different manufacturers. However,
Solution: 1. Check all data of inter-BSC handover: external cell description data table, BA2 table, CGI of MSC. No problem is found. 2. Trace A interface message of BSC1 and BSC2. After BSC1 sends HORequired, BSC2 has not received HO-Request message, but BSC1 has. 3. The path of data search: MSC goes to Location Area Cell Table according to the CGI of the destination cell in HO-Required message, refers to the
description of the DSP of the cell given in the table and sends HO request to the
correct BSC. 4. The Ho-request message, which should have been sent to BSC2, is sent to BSC1, so it is DSP error. After correction, the problem is solved.
