3.6.6 Mobile-Originated Packet Data Call Test   

 

Ensure that the system uses dynamic rate allocation. 

The test procedure is as follows: 

Step 1

 

Register a test MS in the HLR. 

Step 2

 

Prepare a BlueRose and keep an FTP server ready. 

Step 3

 

Set up a connection between the test MS and the FTP server using the BlueRose and then 
initiate an FTP uploading process. 

Step 4

 

Observe the signaling messages and the state transition of the MS on BlueRose. 

Step 5

 

Check the channel setup between the MS and the sector. 

z

 

If the packet data service is unavailable after you log in to the FTP server, infer that the 
MS is in dormant mode. If the packet data service is available, infer that the MS is in 
active mode. 

z

 

After an FCH is set up, the BTS sends ESCAM messages repeatedly and performs SCH 
set-up or SCH extension repeatedly.

There are various test conditions listed in test steps. You can select some of them and perform the 
test according to site conditions. 

The test procedure is as follows: 

Step 1

 

Register a test MS in the HLR. 

Step 2

 

Prepare a BlueRose and keep an FTP server ready. 

Step 3

 

Set up a connection between the test MS and the FTP server using the BlueRose and then 
initiate an FTP uploading process. 

Step 4

 

Test the downlink rate of a user under the conditions listed in Table 3-6.   

Table 3-6 lists the conditions for testing the packet data downlink rate of a user.
