The phase of the Codec Mode Indication in the downlink can be changed during a call by using a CMI_PHASE_REQ message sent on the RATSCCH.
The CMI_PHASE_REQ message may be sent by the BTS during a call to change the phase of the Codec Mode Indication in the downlink without interruption of the speech transmission.
The ACK_OK message serves as an acknowledgement that a RATSCCH REQ message has been detected, correctly decoded (no CRC error) and that it is defined for the Addressee.

26.17.9.11.1 Conformance requirements
|
AMR codec mode adaptation is done within a set of 4 codec modes. The codec mode set (Active Codec Set) to be used by the BSS and the MS is defined during call setup and/or handover by layer 3 signalling. The ACS can be changed during a call using an AMR_CONFIG_REQ message sent on the RATSCCH.
The AMR_CONFIG_REQ message may be sent by the BTS during a call to change the AMR configuration on the radio interface without interruption of the speech transmission.
The ACK_OK message serves as an acknowledgement that a RATSCCH REQ message has been detected, correctly decoded (no CRC error) and that it is defined for the Addressee.
If the ACS consists of four modes, then the complete set of thresholds/hysteresis can not be sent with this message. In that case, all THRESHj and HYSTj fields are reserved for future use and shall be set to "1". Similar, if the BTS has no threshold and hysteresis parameters for the given configuration, then all THRESHj and HYSTj field bits shall be set to "1" to indicate that they are undefined. The THRESH_REQ message shall be used to transmit these parameters at a later point in time. As long as the MS has no defined threshold and hysteresis parameters it shall use the Initial Codec Mode for the Codec Mode Request.

Test Procedure
1) User initiates a Mobile Originated call.
2) The network and the MS indicate Bearer capabilities IE with the AMR speech Half Rate (Version 6).
3) The network performs an assignment on a TCH channel with MultiRate configuration to the MS.
4) The SS uses the codec with the highest bit-rate in the current ACS for the Codec Mode Indication, and that with the lowest bit-rate for the Codec Mode Command.
5) The SS sends an AMR_CONFIG_REQ message during the call to reconfigure the Multirate settings.
6) The MS responds to each AMR_CONFIG_REQ message with an ACK_OK message on the RATSCCH.
7) The SS shall ensure that the change occurs correctly for downlink (12 speech frames after AMR_CONFIG_REQ message was sent), and for uplink (12 speech frames after ACK_OK was received) by checking parity of received speech frames, and correct implementation of Uplink Codec mode Request.
8) The SS shall ensure that each of the codecs in the ACS have been implimented correctly by setting the CMC to each of the applicable modes, and ensuring that the UL frames with each CMI are received without parity error. The SS shall then set the CMI and CMC to the codec with highest and lowest bit rates respectively.
9) Steps 4 to 8 shall be repeated for differing AMR_CONFIG_REQ parameters and sending conditions.
10) The network initiates the call release.

26.18.1.1 Conformance Requirement
|
The dynamic mapping of ARFCN to carrier frequencies is specified as follow in 3GPP TS 45.005:
“The carrier frequency is designated by the absolute radio frequency channel number (ARFCN). If we call Fl(n) the frequency value of the carrier ARFCN n in the lower band, and Fu(n) the corresponding frequency value in the upper band, we have for the dynamically mapped ARFCNs:
T-GSM 380
Fl(n) = 380.2 + 0.2*(n-x+y)
x n x+z
Fu(n)=Fl(n) + 10
T-GSM 410
Fl(n) = 410.2 + 0.2*(n-x+y)
x n x+z
Fu(n)=Fl(n) + 10
T-GSM 810
Fl(n) = 806.2 + 0.2*(n-x+y)
x n x+z
Fu(n)=Fl(n) + 45
GSM 710
Fl(n) = 698.2 + 0.2*(n-x+y)
x n x+z
Fu(n) = Fl(n) + 30
GSM 750
Fl(n) = 747.2 + 0.2*(n-x+y)
x n x+z
Fu(n) = Fl(n) + 30
DCS 1 800
Fl(n) = 1710.2 + 0.2*(n-x+y)
x n x+z
Fu(n) = Fl(n) + 95
PCS 1 900
FI(n) = 1850.2 + 0.2*(n-x+y)
x n x+z
Fu(n) = FI(n) + 80
where the applicable band is indicated by the GSM_Band parameter, x = ARFCN_FIRST, y = BAND_OFFSET and z = ARFCN_RANGE (See 3GPP TS 44.018). Parameters defining carrier frequencies not belonging to the indicated band shall not be considered erroneous.
Information about dynamic mapping is provided by System Information type 15 or Packet System Information type 8 if PBCCH exists, and optionally by System Information type 14. Dynamic ARFCN mapping shall be valid for the whole PLMN. Dynamic mapping has priority over the fixed designation of carrier frequencies. The support of dynamic ARFCN mapping is optional for all other mobile stations except those supporting GSM 700 and T-GSM.”
The frequency band for T-GSM and GSM 700 (dynamic ARFCN mapping is mandatory for these frequencies bands as there is no physical mapping specified) are defined as follow in 3GPP TS 45.005:
i) T-GSM 380 band:
- for T-GSM 380, the system is required to operate in the following band:
- 380,2 MHz to 389,8 MHz: mobile transmit, base receive;
- 390,2 MHz to 399,8 MHz base transmit, mobile receive.
ii) T-GSM 410 band:
- for T-GSM 410, the system is required to operate in the following band:
- 410,2 MHz to 419,8 MHz: mobile transmit, base receive;
- 420,2 MHz to 429,8 MHz base transmit, mobile receive.
...
v) GSM 710 Band:
- for GSM 710, the system is required to operate in the following band:
- 698 MHz to 716 MHz: base transmit, mobile receive;
- 728 MHz to 746 MHz: mobile transmit, base receive.
vi) GSM 750 Band:
- for GSM 750, the system is required to operate in the following band:
- 747 MHz to 762 MHz: base transmit, mobile receive;
- 777 MHz to 792 MHz: mobile transmit, base receive.
vii) T-GSM 810 Band:
- for T-GSM 810, the system is required to operate in the following band:
- 806 MHz to 821 MHz: mobile transmit, base receive;
- 851 MHz to 866 MHz: base transmit, mobile receive.
...
The way to change dynamic ARFCN mapping is specified as follow in 3GPP TS 44.018:
“SYSTEM INFORMATION TYPE 15 message is broadcast if dynamic ARFCN mapping is used in the PLMN. In this case ARFCN values are allocated and dynamically mapped to physical frequencies, see 3GPP TS 45.005. The presence of dynamic ARFCN mapping shall be indicated in Cell Options (BCCH) IE. When the value of the parameter DM_CHANGE_MARK is changed in the SYSTEM INFORMATION TYPE 15 message, the mobile station shall re-read information on dynamic mapping in a full set of SYSTEM INFORMATION 15 messages.
After the release of a dedicated connection, when returning to idle mode or packet idle mode, the mobile station may keep the dynamic ARFCN mapping information for the PLMN of the chosen cell under the following conditions:
- there has not been any handover during the connection; or
- the mobile station chooses the last cell (identified by the BCCH carrier and BSIC) that was used during the connection and there has not been any handover including dynamic ARFCN mapping information after reception of the dynamic ARFCN mapping information.
Otherwise, the mobile station shall acquire new dynamic ARFCN mapping information.”

26.18.1.2 Test Purpose
|
To verify that for the frequencies bands for which Dynamic ARFCN mapping is mandatory, the MS:
1) detects that dynamic ARFCN mapping is supported in the cell (signalled via the DN-IND field of the Cell Options (BCCH) IE in the SI3)
2) decodes and interprets correctly the parameters x = ARFCN_FIRST, y = BAND_OFFSET and z = ARFCN_RANGE transmitted in the SI15 message broadcast on the BCCH.
3) decodes and interprets correctly the parameters x = ARFCN_FIRST, y = BAND_OFFSET and z = ARFCN_RANGE transmitted in the SI14 message broadcast on the SACCH.
4) detects a change of dynamic ARFCN mapping in the SI15 message broadcast on the BCCH (signalled via the DM_CHANGE_MARK field in SI15)

Test Procedure
Two dynamic ARFCN mapping of the carrier frequencies of the band to be tested are defined (the two mappings shall not overlap):
a) the first mapping referred as DM1 maps the N carrier frequencies of the band to be tested to the ARFCNs 438 to 438 + N.
b) the second mapping referred as DM2 maps N - 1 carrier frequencies (the first frequency is excluded) of the band to be tested to the ARFCNs 438 + N +1 to 438 + N + N
The parameters of the SI14/SI15 rest octets corresponding to these mapping are defined in the following table:

N = 74 for GSM 750,
N = 74 for T-GSM 810.
The default layer 3 messages of the section 26.6.19 shall be used but when the DM2 mapping is used, the ARFCN numbers shall be modified by adding N.
The test is done in 3 steps:
1) Checking that the MS takes into account the ARFCN mapping defined in SI15
The SS broadcasts on the BCCH the default SIs and the SI15 containing the DM1 parameters. The MS is switched on. The MS shall trigger a IMSI Attach procedure. The SS assigns a SDCCH channel according to the dynamic ARFCN mapping defined in DM1. It is checked that the MS uses the frequency assigned in the IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT message. Before releasing the SDCCH channel, the SS sends to the MS on the SACCH the SI14 containing the DM2 parameters.
2) Checking that the MS takes into account the ARFCN mapping defined in SI14
When the channel has been released and before the MS receives on the BCCH the SI14 containing the DM2 parameters, the SS establishes a SDCCH by assigning a channel according to the dynamic ARFCN mapping defined in DM2. It is checked that the MS uses the frequency assigned in the IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT message.
3) Checking that the MS takes into account a change of dynamic ARFCN mapping in SI15
When the channel has been released by the MS the SS broadcasts on the BCCH the SI15 containing the DM2 parameters and then the DM1 parameters. The SS establishes a SDCCH by assigning a channel according to the dynamic ARFCN mapping defined in DM1. It is checked that the MS uses the frequency assigned in the IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT message.

n: number of access bursts.
The MS is in the active state (U10) of a call. The SS sends a HANDOVER COMMAND on the main DCCH. The MS shall (at the time defined by the Starting Time information element, if included in the message) begin to send access bursts on the new DCCH (and optionally on the SACCH) of the target cell. The SS observes the access bursts and after receiving n (n being arbitrarily chosen between values according to table 2) access bursts, the SS sends one PHYSICAL INFORMATION message with a Timing Advance as specified in table 1. The MS shall activate the channel in sending and receiving mode. The MS shall establish a signalling link. The MS shall be ready to transmit a HANDOVER COMPLETE message, before 'x' ms after the end of the PHYSICAL INFORMATION message, but not before a UA frame has been sent by the SS.
The term 'ready to transmit' is defined in 3GPP TS 04.13. The value of 'x' depends upon the target channel and is specified in the specific message contents section.
Maximum Duration of Test
10 minutes.
Expected Sequence
This sequence is performed for an execution counter M = 1, 2...10 for an MS that supports TCH/F and speech version 4, version 2 and version 1. Steps M=7 and M=8 are performed only if an MS supports full rate speech version 2. Steps M=9 and M=10 are performed only if an MS supports half rate speech version 1.
This sequence is performed for an execution counter M = 1, 2...19 for an MS that supports TCH/F and TCH/H and speech version 4, version 2 and version 1. Steps M=7, M=8, M=15 and M=16 are performed only if an MS supports speech version 2. Steps M=9, M=10, M=17 and M=18 are performed only if an MS supports half rate speech version 1.
This sequence is performed for an execution counter M = 20, 21…30 for an MS that supports TCH/F and speech version 5, version 2 and version 1. Steps M=27 and M=28 are performed only if an MS supports full rate speech version 2. Steps M=29 and M=30 are performed only if an MS supports half rate speech version 1.

Test Procedure
This sequence is performed for execution counter, k = 1, 2.
When k = 1, DTX is not used:
1) User initiates a Mobile Originated call.
2) The network and the MS indicate Bearer capabilities IE with the AMR speech Full Rate (Version 4 or 5) and Half Rate (Version 4).
3) The network performs an assignment on a TCH channel with MultiRate configuration to the MS.
4) The call is maintained during a programmable time without variation of RxLev /RxQual.
5) The SS shall send a properly formatted AMR_CONFIG_REQ message during the call at a programmable time.
6) The MS answers with an ACK_OK message within 3 speech frames
7) The network initiates the call release.
When k = 2, DTX is used:
1) In the serving cell, the DTX indicator is set to "MS shall use discontinuous transmission".
2) User initiates a Mobile Originated call.
3) The network and the MS indicate Bearer capabilities IE with the AMR speech Full Rate (Version 4 or 5) and Half Rate (Version 4).
4) The network performs an assignment on a TCH channel with MultiRate configuration to the MS.
5) The call is maintained during a programmable time without variation of RxLev /RxQual.
6) The SS shall send a properly formatted AMR_CONFIG_REQ message during the call at a programmable time.
7) The MS answers with an ACK_OK message within 3 speech frames.
8) The network initiates the call release.
This test is repeated for
- M =1 if full rate speech version 5 is supported, and
- M = 2 if full rate speech version 4 is supported, and
- M = 3 if half rate speech version 4 is supported.

Test Procedure
1) User initiates a Mobile Originated call.
2) The network and the MS indicate Bearer capabilities IE with the AMR speech Full Rate (Version 4 or 5) and Half Rate (Version 4).
3) The network performs an assignment on a TCH channel with MultiRate configuration to the MS.
4) The network shall indicate Codec Mode Command = 0 and Codec Mode Indication = 1.
5) The SS sends a series of CMI_PHASE_REQ messages during the call to change the phase of the Codec Mode Indication in the downlink.
6) The MS responds to each CMI_PHASE_REQ message with an ACK_OK message on the RATSCCH.
7) The SS shall ensure that the phase request has been handled correctly by checking the Uplink CMI = 0 for 20 speech frames following the receipt of the ACK_OK.
8) The network initiates the call release.
This test is repeated for

26.19.9.11.1 Conformance requirements
|
AMR codec mode adaptation is done within a set of 4 codec modes. The codec mode set (Active Codec Set) to be used by the BSS and the MS is defined during call setup and/or handover by layer 3 signalling. The ACS can be changed during a call using an AMR_CONFIG_REQ message sent on the RATSCCH.
The AMR_CONFIG_REQ message may be sent by the BTS during a call to change the AMR WB configuration on the radio interface without interruption of the speech transmission.
The ACK_OK message serves as an acknowledgement that a RATSCCH REQ message has been detected, correctly decoded (no CRC error) and that it is defined for the Addressee.
If the ACS consists of four modes, then the complete set of thresholds/hysteresis can not be sent with this message. In that case, all THRESHj and HYSTj fields are reserved for future use and shall be set to "1". Similar, if the BTS has no threshold and hysteresis parameters for the given configuration, then all THRESHj and HYSTj field bits shall be set to "1" to indicate that they are undefined. The THRESH_REQ message shall be used to transmit these parameters at a later point in time. As long as the MS has no defined threshold and hysteresis parameters it shall use the Initial Codec Mode for the Codec Mode Request.

Initial Conditions
System Simulator:
1 cell with default parameters
Mobile Station:
The MS is in the "idle, updated" state, with a TMSI allocated and camped on cell A.
Specific PICS statements:
- Support of GSM speech full rate version 4 (O-TCH/WFS).
- Support of GSM speech Half rate version 4 (O-TCH/WHS).
- Support of GSM Speech Full Rate version 5 (TCH/WFS).
PIXIT statements:
-
Foreseen Final State of the MS
Idle Updated, TMSI allocated and camped on cell A.
Test Procedure
1) User initiates a Mobile Originated call.
2) The network and the MS indicate Bearer capabilities IE with the AMR speech Full Rate (Version 4 or 5) and Half Rate (Version 4).
3) The network performs an assignment on a TCH channel with MultiRate configuration to the MS.
4) The SS uses the codec with the highest bit-rate in the current ACS for the Codec Mode Indication, and that with the lowest bit-rate for the Codec Mode Command.
5) The SS sends an AMR_CONFIG_REQ message during the call to reconfigure the Multirate settings.
6) The MS responds to each AMR_CONFIG_REQ message with an ACK_OK message on the RATSCCH.
7) The SS shall ensure that the change occurs correctly for downlink (12 speech frames after AMR_CONFIG_REQ message was sent), and for uplink (12 speech frames after ACK_OK was received) by checking parity of received speech frames, and correct implementation of Uplink Codec mode Request.
8) The SS shall ensure that each of the codecs in the ACS have been implimented correctly by setting the CMC to each of the applicable modes, and ensuring that the UL frames with each CMI are received without parity error. The SS shall then set the CMI and CMC to the codec with highest and lowest bit rates respectively.
9) Steps 4 to 8 shall be repeated for differing AMR_CONFIG_REQ parameters and sending conditions.
10) The network initiates the call release.
This test is repeated for
- M =1 if full rate speech version 5 is supported, and
- M = 2 if full rate speech version 4 is supported, and
- M = 3 if half rate speech version 4 is supported.
In case of full rate speech version 5 and half rate speech version 4,, the maximum number of codec is 3 then the step 27 to 29 are skipped.

The purpose of the Mobile Station Classmark 3 information element is to provide the network with information concerning aspects of the mobile station. The contents might affect the manner in which the network handles the operation of the mobile station. The Mobile Station Classmark information indicates general mobile station characteristics and it shall therefore, except for fields explicitly indicated, be independent of the frequency band of the channel it is sent on.
<Classmark 3 Value part> ::=
{ 0 | 1 < High Multislot Capability : bit(2) > } ---Release 5 starts here.
{ 0 | 1 < GERAN Iu Mode Capabilities > } -- ‘1’ also means support of GERAN Iu mode
< GERAN Feature Package 2 : bit >
GERAN Feature Package 2 (1 bit field)
This field indicates the MS support of the GERAN Feature Package 2. The GERAN Feature Package 2 includes Enhanced Power Control (EPC) (see 3GPP TS 45.008).
0 GERAN feature package 2 not supported.
1 GERAN feature package 2 supported.
In A/Gb mode, when assigned a TCH or O-TCH, the MS shall configure the channel in enhanced power control (EPC) mode if so commanded by BSS in the channel assignment (see 3GPP TS 44.018). On such a channel, EPC may be used for uplink power control and/or downlink power control.
When on a channel in EPC mode,
• the MS shall use the EPCCH in the uplink for EPC measurement reporting (see subclause 8.4.1b).
• the MS shall, depending on what is signalled in the L1 header of the downlink SACCH (see 3GPP TS 44.004) and during channel assignment (see 3GPP TS 44.018), obey either the EPC Uplink Power Control Command (sent on the EPCCH in the downlink) or the Ordered MS Power Level (sent in the L1 header of the downlink SACCH).
- If the signalling indicates that EPC shall be used in the uplink, the MS shall employ the most recently commanded EPC power control level, as indicated by the EPC Uplink Power Control Command sent on the corresponding EPCCH in the downlink. The EPC Uplink Power Control Command is sent once every EPC reporting period (see subclause 8.4.1b). The MS shall ignore the Ordered MS Power Level sent in the SACCH L1 header in the downlink.
- If the signalling indicates that normal power control shall be used in the uplink, the MS shall ignore the EPC Uplink Power Control Command and use normal power control.
When in enhanced power control (EPC) mode, the MS shall for uplink power control obey either the EPC Uplink Power Control Commands or the Ordered MS Power Level. This is controlled by signalling via the SACCH L1 header in the downlink (see 3GPP TS 44.004) and during channel assignment (see 3GPP TS 44.018 and 3GPP TS 44.118). The type of power control commands to be obeyed by the MS during one SACCH period is determined by what is signalled in the L1 header during the previous SACCH period and, before any SACCH block has been correctly decoded, by what is signalled during channel assignment.
NOTE: This signalling via the SACCH L1 header and during channel assignment only controls the uplink power control mechanism. In A/Gb mode, EPC measurement procedures shall always be followed by the MS when on a TCH or O-TCH in EPC mode. Similarly in Iu mode, EPC measurement procedures shall always be followed by the MS when on a DBPSCH in EPC mode.
When the MS is ordered to obey the Ordered MS Power Level, the timing according to subclause 4.7.1 applies.
When the MS is ordered to obey the EPC Uplink Power Control Command, it shall, upon receipt of an EPC Uplink Power Control Command on an EPCCH in the downlink, change to the new power level on the corresponding uplink channel at the first TDMA frame belonging to the next EPC reporting period (as specified in subclause 8.4.1b).

To verify that when on a channel in EPC mode the MS ignores the EPC Uplink Power Control command if the signalling indicates that normal power control shall be used in the uplink.
To verify that when in EPC mode, the MS shall for uplink power control obey either the EPC Uplink Power Control Commands or the Ordered MS Power Level.

Test Procedure
The MS is switched on (or its power is re-applied). After the start of the LOCATION UPDATING procedure the SS initiates a CLASSMARK ENQUIRY procedure. The MS shall report in the CLASSMARK CHANGE that it supports “GERAN FEATURES PACKAGE 2”. The SS then completes the LOCATION UPDATING procedure assignment a mobile identity.
The MS is paged and a MT speech call (TCH) is established with an early assignment (before CONNECT). The MS is assigned a channel that supports “Enhanced Power Control” with the power level set to the maximum allowed. The MS shall send EPCCH Message block on the EPCCH channel. The reported power level is the one set in the ASSIGNMENT COMMAND.
The SS checks that the MS is using the enhanced power control mechanism by commanding it to lower its power level. This is checked on the subsequent EPCCH Message blocks sent by the MS on the EPCCH.
“Enhanced Power Control” is disabled and the SS checks that the MS goes back to using the normal power control mechanism in MEASUREMENT REPORT messages on SACCH.

26.21.0 General
|
VAMOS signalling test cases in this section are performed with SCPIR = 0 if not otherwise defined in the test case.
VAMOS signalling test cases are performed in VAMOS I mode for MS supporting VAMOS I, VAMOS II mode for MS supporting VAMOS II and in VAMOS III mode for MS supporting VAMOS III. VAMOS II and VAMOS III mode implies testing of shifted SACCH channel.
Table 26.21-1 lists the VAMOS TSC sets and channel types used to achieve a good coverage for the possible TSC sets and channel types within the test procedures of the VAMOS signalling test cases.

26.21.1.1 Conformance requirements
|
1) VAMOS allows multiplexing of two users simultaneously on the same physical resource in the circuit switched mode both in downlink and in uplink, using the same timeslot number, ARFCN and TDMA frame number. Hence, a basic physical channel capable of VAMOS supports up to 4 TCH channels along with their associated control channels (FACCH and SACCH).
The channel organization for TCH, FACCH and SACCH/T in VAMOS mode shall be done as described in 3GPP TS 45.002.
2) Upon receipt of the ASSIGNMENT COMMAND message, the mobile station initiates a local end release of link layer connections and packet resources, if in dual transfer mode, disconnects the physical channels, commands the switching to the assigned channels and initiates the establishment of lower layer connections (this includes the activation of the channels, their connection and the establishment of the main signalling links).

26.21.5.1 Conformance requirements
|
1) VAMOS allows multiplexing of two users simultaneously on the same physical resource in the circuit switched mode both in downlink and in uplink, using the same timeslot number, ARFCN and TDMA frame number. Hence, a basic physical channel capable of VAMOS supports up to 4 TCH channels along with their associated control channels (FACCH and SACCH).
The channel organization for TCH, FACCH and SACCH/T in VAMOS mode shall be done as described in 3GPP TS 45.002.
2) Upon receipt of the ASSIGNMENT COMMAND message, the mobile station initiates a local end release of link layer connections and packet resources, if in dual transfer mode, disconnects the physical channels, commands the switching to the assigned channels and initiates the establishment of lower layer connections (this includes the activation of the channels, their connection and the establishment of the main signalling links).
3) A mobile station indicating support for VAMOS I, VAMOS II or VAMOS III (see 3GPP TS 24.008) shall support VAMOS mode of operation while in dual transfer mode. In case of DTM in A/Gb mode the training sequence for the packet data traffic channels (PDTCH) together with associated control channels shall have the same training sequence code (TSC) as the TSC of the traffic channel together with the associated control channels and shall be selected from TSC Set 1.
4) The mobile station shall act on the DTM ASSIGNMENT COMMAND message as specified in 3GPP TS 44.018.

26.21.5.3 Method of Test
|
Initial Conditions
System Simulator:
1 cell, default parameters, DTM supported, TSC as defined in table 26.21-1 Cell A TSC set.
Mobile Station:
MS is GPRS attached and PDP Context 2 activated.
Specific PICS statements:
- VAMOS II supported ( TSPC_VAMOS_Type2)
- VAMOS III supported (TSPC_VAMOS_Type3)
PIXIT statements:
- Way to indicate alerting.
- Way to make the MS accept an incoming call after alerting.
Foreseen Final State of MS
"Idle, updated", with TMSI allocated.
Test Procedure
A mobile terminated speech call is established. The network and the MS indicate Bearer capabilities IE with supported Full Rate channels. The call is established with a late assignment. VAMOS TSC set 2 according to table 26.21-1 (cell A) is assigned in ASSIGNMENT COMMAND. It is checked that the TCH is through connected in both directions. MS initiates a data transfer for 5000 octets. The SS sends DTM ASSIGNMENT COMMAND with uplink resources and channel description set to a VAMOS channel with TSC set 2 according to table 26.21-1 (cell A).It is checked that the TCH is through connected in both directions and the packet data traffic channels together with associated control channels shall have the same TSC as TSC of the traffic channel together with associated control channels and shall be selected from TSC set 1 The mobile initiates the call release after the completion of data transfer.
