CTS/PM BULLETIN #: 00-011 (Page 2 of 20) DATE: 04/05/2000 ____________________________________________________________________________ DESCRIPTION ----------1.0 INTRODUCTION This document summarizes information obtained from multiple sources concerning Call Processing Failure (CPFAIL) Messages associated with AUTOPLEX(R) systems. This document is an update to the Customer Technical Support Bulletin #98-038 issued October 1998. A call processing failure message is generated either by the cell site or the Mobile Switching Center (MSC) complex when an abnormal event occurs during call processing. An analysis of these events may be useful in determining hardware, translations, Radio Frequency (RF), or other types of problems within the system. There are 3 categories of CDMA CPFAIL : (1) CE/CCC CPFAIL MESSAGES (initiated (2) RCC CPFAIL MESSAGES (initiated by (3) DCS CPFAIL MESSAGES (initiated by messages depending on where they are triggered by CDMA Hardware in the cell site), the central processors in the cell) and the 5E-DCS)

This document describes the failure messages, their probable causes, and the impact on end subscribers. The information is provided in two formats, first a table for quick look-up and then a verbose listing of the failures with additional information. Note that the majority of these failure events are not pegged in system service measurements, although most of them result in either a call setup failure of a dropped call from an end subscriber (i.e., mobile user) point of view. CDMA-7.x / ECP-12.x, and ongoing forward modifications and enhancements will include some or all of these service measurement peg counts. 2.0 SAMPLE OUTPUT MESSAGE ======================================== A 02 REPT:CELL 42 CP FAILURE, UNANSWERED ORIGINATION CDMA TRAFFIC CHANNEL CONFIRMATION FAILURE TRAFFIC CHANNEL FAILURE REASON - ACQUIRE MOBILE FAILURE [2] DCS 1 TG 997 TM 5 SG 0 ANT 2 FS-ECP ID 1 DN (917) 407-3689 SN Xb001e98c SCM a0 ALW CDMA, ASGN CDMA CCC 2, CCU 1, CE 5, ECP ID 1 07/20/98 00:02:03 #924549 ======================================== ======================================== A 40 REPT:CELL 30 CP FAILURE, ANSWERED ORIGINATION CALL SHUTDOWN CALL SHUTDOWN REASON - HANDOFF COMPLETE TIMEOUT [10] CALL RELEASE REASON - INTERNAL ERROR BY EITHER SIDE [1] DCS 1 TG 997 TM 169 SG 0 ANT 3 FS-ECP ID 1 DN (917) 653-5811 SN Xb0e14077 SCM b4 ALW CDMA, ASGN CDMA CCC 2, CCU 1, CE 1, ECP ID 1 CELL 50, CCC 2, CCU 2, CE 9, ANT 3, ECP ID 1 CELL 206, CCC 2, CCU 2, CE 0, ANT 1, ECP ID 1 07/20/98 00:40:29 #925290 ======================================== 2.01 SAMPLE OUTPUT MESSAGE FLEXENT MICROCELL ============================================== A 40 REPT:CELL 30 CP FAILURE, ANSWERED ORIGINATION CALL SHUTDOWN

CTS/PM BULLETIN #: 00-011 (Page 8 of 20) DATE: 04/05/2000 ____________________________________________________________________________ frames (assuming the mobile received two good frames and started transmitting the preamble). So the problem could be either on the downlink or the uplink. In the case of the downlink, the mobile timed out (T50m which is 200ms in IS-95A, changed to 1s for IS-95B) waiting for the good frames. In the case of uplink, the cell site timed out waiting to receive preamble frames. This failure occurs when call setup failure the cell site times-out waiting for the first layer 2 acknowledgment message from the mobile after the cell site sends the layer 2 acknowledgment to the preamble. The cell site will re-send the acknowledgment up to 9 times with a retry interval of 400ms.

DCS FAIL : 72H : No connectivity There is no frame relay connectivity between the specified packet pipe and any PSU with speech handlers call setup failure

DCS FAIL : 74H : SH activation

There was an internal 5Ecall setup failure DCS failure in activating the assigned speech handler There are no available speech handlers accessible from the specified packet pipe call setup failure

DCS FAIL : 75H : No idle SHC

5.0 TYPE OF CP FAIL MESSAGES ALERT CONFIRMATION FAILURE The mobile unit fails to respond to a call setup order sent to it on the indicated voice radio within the time allowed. This results in a call setup failure. Possible sources of this problem include the RCU and the mobile. CALL SETUP TIMEOUT The cell site does not respond to a call setup order for the indicated voice radio. This results in a call setup failure. This indicates a problem with the data links.

CTS/PM BULLETIN #: 00-011 (Page 12 of 20) DATE: 04/05/2000 ____________________________________________________________________________ CALL SHUTDOWN The cell site cannot turn off the indicated radio after an internal error shuts down the call. Possible sources of this problem include the RCU. CDMA CHANNEL ACTIVATION FAILURE - The CE failed to activate during call setup or during soft handoff setup. Probable causes include the CCC or the CCU; it could also be a software anomaly. The effect on the end subscriber is a dropped call or a call setup failure. CDMA CE/SH CHANNEL PROTOCOL FAILURE A lack of continuity has occurred in the protocol between the channel element at the cell and the speech handler channel at the 5E-DCS. Possible causes include a T1 problem, a CCC problem, as software problem and erratic arrival of forward frames. CDMA CE SWITCH FAILURE - the CE cannot switch from the 8k mode to 13k mode during call setup; probable causes include a software anomaly and perhaps the CCU. The effect on the end subscriber is a call setup failure. CDMA FAILURE TO ESTABLISH CE/SH CHANNEL PROTOCOL - the cell failed to establish the CE/FS protocol during call setup or during soft handoff setup. The probable cause is a faulty PP; it could also be a software anomaly. The effect on the end subscriber is either a call setup failure or possibly a dropped call. CDMA TRAFFIC CHANNEL CONFIRMATION FAILURE During call setup, the cell has indicated to the ECP that the mobile has not responded properly when bringing the mobile to the traffic channel. Possible reasons for the failure include a software bug, a faulty mobile and poor air interface. CDMA VOCODER MISMATCH The cell indicated that there is a vocoder (8Kb or 13Kb) mismatch between the cell and the 5E-DCS. FORCED RELEASE TIMEOUT the cell site did not respond after a forced release order was sent for the indicated radio. Results in a call setup failure. Possible reason for failure is a problem with the data links. GLARE CONDITION ORIG MOBILE IS BUSY A mobile unit attempted to originate a call while still marked busy by the system. Possible reasons for the failure include mobile cloning and the user pressing the SEND button before the system has torn down the call. LOST CALL the cell site cannot turn off the indicated radio after the mobile unit fades (time-out released). Possible sources of failure include the RCU. MOBILE UNIT RELEASE the cell site cannot turn off the indicated radio after the mobile unit releases. Possible sources of failure include the RCU. NEW CELL TIMEOUT During handoff, the MSC has not received a confirmation message from the new cell in the allowable time. The call may or may not be recoverable. Possible causes include the RCU at the new cell, mobile unit, and interference or data links. OLD CELL TIMEOUT During handoff, the MSC has not received a confirmation message from the serving cell after a handoff order is sent to that cell. The handoff is aborted if there is no new cell site voice channel confirmation, and the system will attempt to continue the call on the original cell. Possible causes include the RCU at the old cell, mobile unit, and interference or data links. RELEASE ACKNOWLEDGE While trying to send the initial voice channel assignment, the cell site could not turn off the indicated radio after receiving a forced release order. Result is a call setup failure. Possible sources of failure include the RCU.

CTS/PM BULLETIN #: 00-011 (Page 13 of 20) DATE: 04/05/2000 ____________________________________________________________________________

RELEASE CONFIRMATION FAILURE the cell site cannot turn off the indicated radio after the mobile unit fails to respond to a forced release order. Result is a call setup failure. Possible sources of failure include the RCU. TRANSMITTER ACTIVATION FAILURE the cell site could not turn on the indicated radio. Result is a call setup failure. Possible sources of failure include the RCU. VOICE CHANNEL CONFIRMATION FAILURE the cell site does not receive a SAT from the mobile unit within the time allowed for the mobile to lock on to the indicated radio or the mobile unit strength is below the interference protection threshold. Result is a call setup failure. Possible sources of failure include the RCU, mobile unit, interference or too high a setting for the interference protection threshold. 5.01 DESCRIPTION OF CELL (CE/CCC) CPFAIL MESSAGES TRAFFIC CHANNEL CONFIRMATION FAILURE LAYER 2 ACKNOWLEDGMENT FAILURE (1) : This failure occurs when the cell site timesout waiting for the first layer 2 acknowledgment message from the mobile after the cell site sends the layer 2 acknowledgment to the preamble. The cell site will resend the acknowledgment up to 9 times with a retry interval of 400ms. Probable causes include RF propagation issues, IS-95 limitations (IS-95-B enhancements: N1m default value change from 3 to 9; soft setup), and neighbor list issues; it could also be a software anomaly. The effect on the end subscriber is a call setup failure. Service measurement counters CP-CDMA 1 (CDMA Origination Traffic Channel Failure) or CP-CDMA 2 (CDMA Termination Traffic Channel Failure) will be incremented. ACQUIRE MOBILE FAILURE (2) : could be due to 2 reasons (1)The mobile did not receive two good consecutive frames on the forward traffic channel or (2)The cell site did not receive the preamble frames (assuming the mobile received two good frames and started transmitting the preamble). So the problem could be either on the downlink or the uplink. In the case of the downlink, the mobile timed out (T50m which is 200ms in IS-95A, changed to 1s for IS95B) waiting for the good frames. In the case of uplink, the cell site timed out waiting to receive preamble frames. Probable causes include RF propagation issues, IS-95 limitations (IS-95-B enhancements : N1m default value change from 3 to 9; soft setup), and neighbor list issues; it could also be a software anomaly. The effect on the end subscriber is a call setup failure. Service measurement counters CP-CDMA 1 (CDMA Origination Traffic Channel Failure) or CP-CDMA 2 (CDMA Termination Traffic Channel Failure) will be incremented. SERVICE CONNECT COMPLETE FAILURE (3) : the cell failed to receive a service connect complete message from the mobile during call setup; probable causes include RF propagation issues, software anomalies, and the mobile unit itself. The effect on the end subscriber is a call setup failure. Service measurement counters CP-CDMA 1 (CDMA Origination Traffic Channel Failure) or CP-CDMA 2 (CDMA Termination Traffic Channel Failure) will be incremented. SERVICE REQUEST FAILURE - the cell failed to receive a setup request message from the mobile during call setup; probable causes include RF propagation issues, software anomalies, and the mobile unit itself. The effect on the end subscriber is a call setup failure. Service measurement counters CP-CDMA 1 (CDMA Origination Traffic Channel Failure) or CP-CDMA 2 (CDMA Termination Traffic Channel Failure) will be incremented.

CTS/PM BULLETIN #: 00-011 (Page 14 of 20) DATE: 04/05/2000 ____________________________________________________________________________ SERVICE RESPONSE NOT ACCEPTED - the mobile does not accept the proposed service option during call setup; probable causes include software anomalies or an incompatible mobile. The effect on the end subscriber is a call setup failure. Service measurement counters CP-CDMA 1 (CDMA Origination Traffic Channel Failure) or CP-CDMA 2 (CDMA Termination Traffic Channel Failure) will be incremented. SERVICE RESPONSE FAILURE : the cell failed to receive a service response message from the mobile during call setup; probable causes include RF propagation issues, software anomalies, and the mobile unit itself. The effect on the end subscriber is a call setup failure. Service measurement counters CP-CDMA 1 (CDMA Origination Traffic Channel Failure) or CP-CDMA 2 (CDMA Termination Traffic Channel Failure) will be incremented. Note : For ECP Release 9.0 and later, CP-CDMA 1 count is replaced by CP-CDMA{8K|13K|EVRC|CMDATA} Field 1 and CP-CDMA 2 count is replaced by CP-CDMA{8K|13K|EVRC|CMDATA} Field 2. CALL SHUTDOWN CS[3] : CODE CHANNEL ACTIVATION FAILURE - the CE failed to add a sector from a softer handoff. The probable cause is the CCU; it could also be a software anomaly. The effect on the end subscriber is a dropped call if the sectors involved are associated with the primary cell. For ECP 12.x and later, this is pegged as a dropped call, CDMA-PAF 53 in service measurements. CS[4] : CODE CHANNEL DEACTIVATION FAILURE - the CE failed to remove a sector from a softer handoff. Probable cause is the CCU; it could also be a software anomaly. The effect on the end subscriber is a dropped call if the sectors involved are associated with the primary cell. For ECP 12.x and later, this is pegged as a dropped call, CDMA-PAF 53 in service measurements. CS[5] : LAYER 2 ACKNOWLEDGMENT FAILURE - This failure occurs when the cell site times-out waiting for the first layer 2 acknowledgment message from the mobile after the cell site sends the layer 2 acknowledgment to the preamble. The cell site will re-send the acknowledgment up to 9 times with a retry interval of 400ms. Probable causes include RF propagation issues, IS-95 limitations (IS-95-B enhancements: N1m default value change from 3 to 9; soft setup), and neighbor list issues; it could also be a software anomaly. The effect on the end subscriber is a call setup failure. For ECP 12.x and later, depending on the call scenario, i.e. if this is an ANSWERED ORIGINATION/TERMINATION this is pegged as a dropped call, CDMA-PAF 53 in service measurements. This is pegged as a call setup failure, CDMA-PAF 51 (UNANSWERED ORIGINATION) or CDMA-PAF 52 (UNANSWERED TERMINATION) in service measurements. CS[7] : RELEASE FAILURE - the cell had a problem during call release. Either the CCU failed to release properly, the CE/SH protocol failed to release properly, or the mobile never responded to the release message from the cell. Probable causes include RF propagation issues, CCU, a faulty PP, and the mobile; it could also be a software anomaly. This event has no effect on the end subscriber during call setup or during a stable call, and can only occur if the cell is the primary cell in soft handoff. This is not service affecting. CS[8] : ACQUIRE MOBILE FAILURE : could be due to 2 reasons (1) The mobile did not receive two good consecutive frames on the forward traffic channel or (2) The cell site did not receive the preamble frames (assuming the mobile received two good frames and started transmitting the preamble). So the problem could be either on the downlink or the uplink. In the case of the downlink, the mobile timed out (T50m which is 200ms in IS-95A, changed to 1s for IS-

In the case of uplink, the cell site timed out waiting to receive preamble frames. Probable causes include RF propagation issues, IS-95 limitations (IS-95-B enhancements: N1m default value change from 3 to 9; soft setup), and neighbor list issues; it could also be a software anomaly. The effect on the end subscriber is a call setup failure. For ECP 12.x and later, depending on the call scenario, i.e. if this is an ANSWERED ORIGINATION/TERMINATION this is pegged as a dropped call, CDMA-PAF 53 in service measurements. This is pegged as a call setup failure, CDMA-PAF 51 (UNANSWERED ORIGINATION) or CDMA-PAF 52 (UNANSWERED TERMINATION) in service measurements. CS[10] : HANDOFF COMPLETE TIMEOUT - the cell timed out waiting for a handoff complete message from the mobile; probable causes include RF propagation issues, IS95 limitations (IS-95-B enhancements: N1m default value change from 3 to 9), and the CCU; the effect on the end subscriber is a dropped call. For ECP 12.x and later, this is pegged as a dropped call, CDMA-PAF 53 in service measurements. CS[11] : CC TRANSFER ACK TIMEOUT - the inter-cell messaging for transferring the primary cell to one of the secondary cells failed; the probable cause is a faulty PP; it could also be a software anomaly. The effect on the end subscriber is a dropped call. For ECP 12.x and later, this is pegged as a dropped call, CDMA-PAF 53 in service measurements.

The effect on the end subscriber is a dropped call. For ECP 12.x and later, this is pegged as a dropped call, CDMA-PAF 53 in service measurements. CS[16] : ACT SET FAILURES - the Handoff Complete message received from the mobile does not match the active set stored at the cell; the most probable cause is a software anomaly. The effect on the end subscriber is a dropped call. For ECP 12.x and later, this is pegged as a dropped call, CDMA-PAF 53 in service measurements. CS[19] : HANDOFF ACK TIMEOUT - during soft handoff, the secondary cell failed to receive an acknowledgment from the primary cell via the packet pipe; the probable cause is a faulty packet pipe; it may also be a software anomaly. There should be no effect on the end subscriber. This event is not service affecting. CS[20] : SERVICE CONNECT COMPLETE FAILURE - the cell failed to receive a service connect complete message from the mobile during call setup; probable causes include RF propagation issues, software anomalies, and the mobile unit itself. The effect on the end subscriber is a call setup failure. For ECP 12.x and later, depending on the call scenario, i.e. if this is an ANSWERED ORIGINATION/TERMINATION this is pegged as a dropped call, CDMA-PAF 53 in service measurements.

DCS FAIL - Protocol Failure detected at Speech Handler : The protocol between the channel element in the cell and the speech handler is never established or is lost after it has been established. The effect on the end subscriber is a call setup failure. This event is pegged in service measurements as DCS FAIL REASON 11 (Invalid Length). For ECP Release 9.0 and later, this count is replaced by SH FAIL 1. DCS FAIL 70H - Not packet pipe: a packet pipe is required, but the message contained another trunk type; the most probable cause is a RC/V translations entry error. The effect on the end subscriber is a call setup failure. This event is pegged in service measurements as DCS FAIL REASON 13 (Invalid Parameter in Message). DCS FAIL 71H - No Frame Connectivity: There is no frame relay connectivity between the specified packet pipe and any PSU with speech handlers; the most probable cause is a configuration error or an ATM link outage. The effect on the end subscriber is a call setup failure. This event is pegged in service measurements as DCS FAIL REASON 15 (Invalid Message Type). For ECP Release 9.0 and later, this count is replaced by FAIL RSN {8K|13K|EVRC} 2.
