2 Overview

2 Overview When initiating a call, an MS sends a random access request message to the BTS on the random access channel (RACH) to request a channel. The random access request message contains the following information: 

Channel setup cause: paging response, emergency call, mobile-originated call, short message service (SMS), location update, or other causes



Random access reference value: five bits randomly selected by the MS

If an MS sends excessive random access request messages to the BTS, an RACH storm may occur, which deteriorates counters. The possible causes for an RACH storm are as follows: 

MS exceptions



A large number of abrupt location update requests



A large number of abrupt random access requests due to malicious manual operations



A large number of abrupt paging requests

3 Technical Description

3 Technical Description 3.1 Working Principles The RACH Storm Filtration feature effectively restrains the RACH storm. Figure 3-1 shows its working principles. Figure 3-1 Working principles for the RACH Storm Filtration feature

If N consecutive random access request messages with the same random access reference value meet the specified time and timing advance (TA) filter conditions, the BTS filters out these messages to restrain the RACH storm.

3.2 Feature Implementation After this feature is enabled, the BTS discards random access request messages that meet the filter conditions. The parameters for implementing this feature are categorized into the following types:

Function Parameters 

RACHFLTSWITCH: specifies whether to enable the RACH Storm Filtration feature.



RACHFLTTYPE: specifies whether to filter out the random access request messages whose channel setup cause is emergency call.

3 Technical Description

Filter Condition Parameters After this feature is enabled, the BTS filters out random access request messages that meet the filter conditions specified by the following parameters: 



RACHFLTFREQ: specifies the frequency filter condition, which is the maximum number of consecutive random access request messages with the same random access reference value. The recommended value is 4. If the number of random access request messages with the same random access reference value is greater than the value of this parameter, the frequency filter condition is met. RACHFLTTATHD: specifies the TA filter condition, which is the minimum TA difference between two consecutive random access request messages with the same random access reference value. The recommended value is 4. If the actual TA difference is less than or equal to the value of this parameter, the TA filter condition is met.



RACHFLTTMINTVAL: specifies the time filter condition, which is the minimum interval between two consecutive random access request messages with the same random access reference value. If the actual interval is less than or equal to the value of this parameter, the time filter condition is met. If this parameter is set to a large value, two consecutive random access request messages with the same random access reference value are likely to meet the time filter condition. The recommended value is 1 and the unit is 100 ms. Within the specified interval, different MSs are highly likely to use the same random access reference value because only five bits are used for MSs to select a random access reference value. As a result, some random access request messages are filtered out by mistake after this feature is enabled.

Figure 3-2 shows the procedure for implementing the RACH Storm Filtration feature

Figure 3-2 Procedure for implementing the RACH Storm Filtration feature



AB, which stands for access burst, indicates a random access request message.



After this feature is enabled, the BTS discards random access request messages with the same random access reference value without reporting any information to the BSC. After filtering out the messages for 5 minutes, the BTS decides on filter conditions again.

5 Impact on the Network

5 Impact on the Network 5.1 Impact on System Capacity If the interval specified by RACHFLTTMINTVAL exceeds 3000 ms, the traffic volume may decrease. The larger the value of this parameter, the more significantly the traffic volume may decrease.

5.2 Impact on Network Performance If this feature is enabled with RACHFLTFREQ set to 4 and RACHFLTTATHD set to 4, the RACH storm can be restrained, increasing the immediate assignment success rate.

6 Engineering Guidelines

6 Engineering Guidelines 6.1 When to Use RACH Storm Filtration It is recommended that the RACH Storm Filtration feature be enabled in cells that occasionally meet the following conditions in a week: 

The traffic volume remains unchanged.



The immediate assignment success rate decreases.



The SDCCH congestion rate increases.



The KPIs, including TCH traffic volume, assignment success rate, and call drop rate, remain unchanged.

6.2 Information to Be Collected Before deploying this feature, collect the following historical information about cells: 

Traffic volume



Immediate assignment success rate



SDCCH congestion rate

6.3 Network Planning N/A

6.4 Deploying RACH Storm Filtration For details about how to activate, verify, and deactivate this feature, see Configuring RACH Storm Filtration.

6.5 Performance Optimization Monitoring After the RACH Storm Filtration feature is enabled, monitor the counters listed in Table 6-1. Table 6-1 Counters to be monitored Measureme nt Unit

Parameter Optimization Optimize the parameters related to this feature based on the monitored counters. 

If the value of the RA303I counter increases and the values of the K3014 and K3034 counters remain unchanged, parameter optimization is not required.



If the value of the RA303I counter increases and the values of the K3014, K3034, A3017, A3018, and A3010 counters decrease, set RACHFLTTMINTVAL to a smaller value and set RACHFLTFREQ to a larger value.
