1. Co-BCCH Introduction
UL(GSM 900) carries BCCH, SDCCH, PDCH & TCH, For Coverage
Improve capability:
UL and OL share the BCCH, SDCCH, PDCH, and the TCH channels will
be increased accordingly
Frequency restrict:
The frequency resource doesn’t support high configuration, as in VNP
totally we have 42 P-GSM frequency, maximum support S4/4/4
Simplify network structure:
Reduce number of cells in the network
Reduce number of Location Area Codes
Reduce number of neighboring cells
Simplify multi-layer network into one layer network

3. When GSM900 cell experience outage (faulty BCCH TRX, faulty circuit
packs), DCS1800 cell cannot absorb the traffic (lost revenue).
Solution : Configure more than one 900M TRX in the underlay sub-cell, if
BCCH TRX fault, another 900M TRX will replace it.
