remark
The handover enables MS to move in the dedicated mode into another
channel of another cell.
When BSC receives HANDO RQ message from MSC, it enables the new
channel activation procedure. The CHAN ACTIV message sent to TRX
contains Handover Reference, which it uses to detect Handover Access
message from MS.
After the activation of handover channel, FURRM uses the CHP RET
NORM ACTIV message to notify CHP to resume the normal mode.
The FURRM should save the Handover Reference in CHAN ACTIV
message. It is required to compare it with the Handover Reference in
the Handover Access message that LAPDm sent.
The (RR) HANDOVER COMMAND message is sent on the active SDCCH.
This transparent message contains the information about new channel:
•
New channel characteristics
•
Power command
