WCDMA RAN
CBS Feature Parameter Description 2 Overview
2 Overview
Cell broadcast service (CBS) provides a cell broadcast system that is supplemental to the existing
digital mobile communication platform. Through the cell broadcast system, the RNC sends
specific short messages to cells in a designated area, and consequently the cells broadcast the
messages to all the UEs supporting CBS within the coverage.
The CBS provides the point-to-multipoint service for 3G network users.
Messages broadcast using CBS are known as CBS messages. CBS-capable UEs constantly detect
CBS messages and notify users of the messages received.
The CBS has the following advantages:
l Compared with the point-to-point service, the CBS enables multiple UEs to receive the
same message, saving system resources.
l CBS service areas (SAs) map with physical cells in a one-on-one manner. This enables
CBS messages to be broadcast in designated areas.
To meet the customers' requirements efficiently, Huawei employs two types of cell broadcast
centers (CBCs) to implement the CBS, namely, external CBC and built-in CBC.
When the external CBC (WRFD-011000 Cell Broadcast Service) is used, it sends messages to
the RNC over the Iu-BC interface and then the RNC forwards the messages to UEs.
When the built-in CBC (WRFD-011001 Simplified Cell Broadcast) is used, the RNC housing
the built-in CBC constructs messages and delivers them to UEs.
Additionally, Huawei uses WRFD-020127 Warning of Disaster feature in built-in CBC scenario.
Warning of Disaster is an enhancement to WRFD-011001 Simplified Cell Broadcast. In the

absence of an external CBC, Warning of Disaster enables Huawei RNCs to deliver warning
notifications to all users served by the RNCs as quickly as possible. The RNCs support initiating,
modifying, and terminating warning notifications, and pre-designating target notification areas.
Maintenance personnel manually trigger warning notifications on the LMT or U2000, which are
then sent to the RNCs.

WCDMA RAN
CBS Feature Parameter Description 3 Technical Description
3 Technical Description
The external CBC and built-in CBC are used in different scenarios to meet different demands
of customers. They cannot be used at the same time. The warning of disaster function is supported
by only the built-in CBC.

WCDMA RAN
3.1 External CBC

This section describes the system architecture, CBS message scheduling and forwarding,
network topology with the Iu-BC interface configured, signaling protocols.
3.1.1 System Architecture

The CBC, as a part of the core network (CN), is connected to multiple RNCs through the Iu-BC
interface. The CBC manages the CBS messages, whereas the UMTS radio access network
(UTRAN) performs transparent transmission of the CBS messages from the CBC.
A common traffic channel (CTCH) needs to be configured for each cell supporting the CBS
feature. The CTCH is mapped onto a FACH.
Figure 3-1 shows the system architecture when the external CBC is configured
Figure 3-1 System architecture when the external CBC is configured
CBC: cell broadcast center RNS: radio network subsystem
SAC: service area code UTRAN: UMTS radio access network
In the release of RAN14.0, the second CBC can be configured as a redundancy CBC for the
disaster preventing. Figure 3-2 shows the system architecture when the second external CBC
is configured.

WCDMA RAN
Figure 3-2 System architecture when the second external CBC is configured
CBC: cell broadcast center RNS: radio network subsystem
SAC: service area code UTRAN: UMTS radio access network
3.1.2 CBS Message Scheduling and Forwarding

When the external CBC is used, the CBS implementation procedure is as follows:
1. The external CBC sends a CBS message to the RNC over the Iu-BC interface. The message
contains service requirements such as the broadcast interval, broadcast times, and broadcast
area.
2. On receipt of the message, the RNC saves it to the buffer.
3. The RNC schedules and forwards the message based on the CTCH bandwidth allocated to
the Uu interface and the service requirements.
4. The UEs in CBS-capable cells receive CBS messages of the user-defined types.
UEs in idle mode or in the CELL_PCH or URA_PCH state can receive the CBS messages.
5. The RNC deletes the CBS messages from the buffer.
3.1.3 Network Topology with the Iu-BC Interface

The external CBC supports only Iu-BC over IP. Therefore, switching from TCP/IP to IP over
ATM (IPoA) must be performed if the ATM transmission mode is used on the Iu-BC interface.
Networking solutions are different in Iu-BC over IP mode and in Iu-BC over ATM mode.
Networking Solution in Iu-BC over IP Mode

Figure 3-3 shows the networking solution in Iu-BC over IP mode.

WCDMA RAN
Figure 3-3 Networking solution in Iu-BC over IP mode
CBE: cell broadcast entity
RNS: radio network subsystem
The advantage and disadvantage of this networking solution are as follows:
l Advantage
This networking solution provides flexible networking and simple configuration.
l Disadvantage
If the IP addresses of the RNC and CBC are on different network segments, a route needs
to be configured and extra routing devices need to be added. This leads to increase in the
cost.
Networking Solution in Iu-BC over ATM Mode

Figure 3-4 shows the networking solution in Iu-BC over ATM mode. In this mode, the ATM
switch implements the switching from the TCP/IP protocol stack to the IPoA protocol stack.

WCDMA RAN
Figure 3-4 Networking solution in Iu-BC over ATM mode
The advantage and disadvantage of this networking solution are as follows:
l Advantage
This solution is cost-effective because legacy ATM switches in the CN can be used and no
additional devices are required.
Legacy ATM switches in the CN can be used, therefore requiring no additional devices
and reducing the costs.
l Disadvantage
There are potential risks that the CN equipment of other vendors does not inter-operate
with Huawei external CBC.
3.1.4 Signaling Protocols

Figure 3-5 shows the protocol stack of CBS

WCDMA RAN
Figure 3-5 CBS protocol stack
The signaling procedures exchanged between CBC and RNC are listed as follows:
l Write-Replace procedure: used to broadcast new messages or replace the old messages.
l Kill procedure: used to stop the broadcasting of specific messages in specific cells.
l Load Status Inquiry procedure: CBC inquires the available bandwidth for message
broadcasting in specific cells.
l Message Status Inquiry procedure: inquiry of the CBS message status (number of
transmitting specific messages in a cell)
l Reset: stopping CBS service in specific cells
l Restart Indication: When cells resume and the CBS service is available again, the RNC
notifies the CN the cell status.
l Failure Indication: The RNC notifies the CN that CBS service in a cell fails.
For details, see 3GPP TS 23.041.
3.2 Built-in CBC

The CBC built in an RNC sends the cell name and messages to UEs on a regular basis. In addition
to the basic CBS function, Huawei built-in CBC also provides a disaster warning function. The
built-in CBC sends normal broadcast messages in normal situations and sends emergency
broadcast messages in emergencies.
3.2.1 System Architecture

When the built-in CBC is used, maintenance personnel can manually trigger CBS messages on
the LMT or U2000, and the messages are then sent to the RNC over the OMCH. The RNC

WCDMA RAN
broadcasts the received messages within designated cells. The messages can be broadcast
periodically.
Figure 3-6 shows the system architecture when the built-in CBC is configured.
Figure 3-6 System architecture when the built-in CBC is configured
3.2.2 CBS Message Scheduling and Forwarding

When the built-in CBC is used, the CBS implementation procedure is as follows:
1. The RNC constructs CBS messages in the same way as the CBS server and saves the
messages to the buffer.
2. The RNC schedules and forwards the message based on the CTCH bandwidth allocated to
the Uu interface and the service requirements.
3. The CBC forwards messages to UEs over the Uu interface. The UEs in CBS-capable cells
receive CBS messages of the user-defined types. UEs in idle, CELL_PCH, or URA_PCH
mode can receive CBS messages.
4. The RNC deletes the CBS messages from the buffer.
3.2.3 Message Construction in the RNC

In the built-in CBC case, the RNC needs to simulate functions of a CBS server by constructing
CBS messages. The following messages need to be constructed:
l Write-Replace message: This message is used to carry information. It is constructed and

sent by the RNC.
l KILL message: When the CBS function is disabled and the function is deactivated in the
cell, the RNC needs to send a KILL message to the cell to stop the cell broadcasting CBS
messages.
The RNC does not need to send the Write-Replace response message or the KILL response
message to the CN.
3.2.4 Warning of Disaster

This section describes the feature WRFD-020127 Warning of Disaster.

WCDMA RAN
The warning of disaster function is used to inform UEs in a designated area of disasters or
breaking events through broadcast. The purpose is to enable the subscribers to respond cautiously
to emergencies.
The warning of disaster function is supported by only the built-in CBC. When the function is
applied, the RNC constructs messages and delivers them to UEs in a designated area. The
designated area can be a single cell, multiple cells, or all cells under the RNC. The Warning of
Disaster feature does not require an external CBC.
Areas can be designated on a per RNC, location area, or cell basis. For details, see section 5.3.3
Feature Deployment
The warning of disaster function enables the network operators to compose emergency messages
on the O&M console when disasters (such as earthquake, tsunami, and hurricane) occur. Then,
the O&M console requests the RNC to send the emergency messages to all the UEs in the
designated area. The RNC sends the messages within four seconds after receiving the request.

For details, see the associated router configuration document. The data must be negotiated with
the RNC.
CBC Configuration
Configure the IP address of the CBC and the route from the CBC to the RNC.
Configuring CBS in Iu-BC over ATM Mode
RNC Configuration
l Add the device IP address of the interface board.
Run the RNC MML command ADD DEVIP to add the device IP address of the interface
board. This device IP address and the IP address of the ATM switch must be on the same
network segment. The IP address of the RNC interface board must be the same as the CBS
IP address.
l Add an IPoA PVC to the ATM switch.
Run the RNC MML command ADD IPOAPVC to add an IPoA PVC between the local
IPoA client and the peer IPoA client.

WCDMA RAN
– IPADDR(BSC6900,BSC6910): IP address at the local end (that is, the IP address of the
interface board)
– PEERIPADDR(BSC6900,BSC6910): IP address of the ATM switch
– The local IP address and the peer IP address must be on the same subnet.
– The VPI and VCI must be the same as the settings of the ATM switch.
l Add an IP route.
Run the RNC MML command ADD IPRT to add a route from the interface board to the

PVC, and IPoA route from the ATM switch to the RNC. The data must be negotiated with the
RNC. The VCI and VPI must be consistent with the settings of the RNC.
CBC Configuration
Configure the IP address of the CBC and the route from the CBC to the RNC.
Configuring CBS for a Cell at the Radio Network Layer

The CBS setup process consists of the following tasks:
1. Setting up a CTCH
2. Configuring the RLC for the CTCH
3. Configuring the Broadcast/Multicast Control (BMC)
4. Updating the system information on the Iub interface
5. Sending the RESTART IND message on the Iu-BC interface
When configuring CBS for a cell, ensure that the configurations of cell-level parameters in IP
mode and ATM mode are consistent. Figure 5-1 shows the procedure for configuring CBS for
a cell (at the radio network layer).

WCDMA RAN
Figure 5-1 Procedure for configuring CBS for a cell
The procedure for configuring CBS for a cell is as follows:
Step 1 Run the RNC MML command ADD UCTCH to add the CTCH for the cell supporting CBS.
NOTE
FACH ID is the unique identifier of an FACH in a cell. You need to negotiate the channel configuration
scheme with NodeB engineers according to the channel specifications supported by the NodeB.
Step 2 Run the RNC MML command ADD UCELLCBSDRX to set the CBS DRX scheduling
parameters for the cell supporting CBS.
NOTE
Generally, you can set the scheduling parameters to default values.
Step 3 Run the RNC MML command ADD UCELLCBSSAC to set the SAC that identifies the service
area (SA) for the cell supporting CBS.
NOTE
You can add a specific CBS cell to the CBS SA by setting the cell ID (CELLID).
CBS SAC identifies a CBS cell. The SAC is determined in network planning.
CBS SAs are different from CS/PS SAs. CBS SAs have a one-on-one mapping with physical cells.
CBS cannot be configured for two or more operators in a cell at the same time. In MOCN networks, it is
recommended that the CBS be configured for the primary operator or one of secondary operators.
Step 4 Run the RNC MML command ADD UCELLCBS to enable CBS in a cell. You can enable CBS
only after other radio network layer configurations are complete. After CBS is enabled, you can

WCDMA RAN
monitor the RESTART IND message on the Iu-BC interface and the CBS scheduling message
on the Uu interface.

5.1.3 Activation Observation

Step 1 Check whether the CBS function works properly.
1. Ping the CBS IP address of the RNC on the CBC. If the ping operation is successful, it
indicates that the data transmission from CBC to RNC is normal.
2. Ping the CBC IP address on the RNC. The source IP address is the device IP address, that
is, the IP address of the CBS. PING IP: SRN=0, SN=16, SIPADDR="12.12.12.12",
DESTIP="11.11.11.11"; If the ping operation is successful, it indicates that the data
transmission from RNC to CBC is normal. If the ping operation fails, check the
configuration.
3. Check whether the CBS socket is connected properly. To do this, trace messages over the
Iu interface and view whether the SABP_LOAD_QUERY is sent to the RNC, as shown
in Figure 5-2

WCDMA RAN
Figure 5-2 Viewing the SABP_LOAD_QUERY message

5.4 Enabling UE Battery Saving for CBS

After CBS is activated, UEs monitor the CTCH even when no CBS messages are sent, increasing
battery consumption of UEs. Two methods for UE battery saving were available, which are
described as follows:
l Dynamically turning on/off the CTCH indicator

When no CBS messages are sent at the current scheduling moment, the CTCH indicator is
turned off by default in system information block 5 (SIB5). The RNC sends the system
information to turn on the CTCH indicator if a CBS message is to be sent.
The turned-on CTCH indicator will be turned off if no CBS messages are sent during a
certain period.
l Dynamically adjusting the length of scheduling messages
If no CBS messages are sent at the current scheduling moment, the RNC reduces the length
of scheduling messages; if a CBS message is to be sent at the current scheduling moment,
the RNC extends the length of scheduling messages.
NOTE
Using the methods for UE battery saving increases the transmission delay of CBS messages. It is good
practice to disable UE battery saving for Warning of Disaster.
5.4.1 Dynamically Turning On/Off the CTCH Indicator

Run the RNC MML command ADD UCELLCBSDRX command with
CTCH_DYN_CTRL_SWITCH selected in the CbsEnhanceSwitch(BSC6900,BSC6910)
parameter.
5.4.2 Dynamically Adjusting the Length of Scheduling Messages

Step 1 Run the RNC MML command DEA UCELLCBS to deactivate the CBS function for a cell.
Step 2 Run the RNC MML command ADD UCELLCBSDRX with

CBS_SCHBLOCK_DYN_ADJ_SWITCH selected in the CbsEnhanceSwitch
(BSC6900,BSC6910) parameter.
Step 3 Run the RNC MML command ACT UCELLCBS to activate the CBS function for a cell.
