Triggering Point
When a TCH seized or released. Sampled every 20 seconds.
Along with above counter Timer 3107 expires while waiting for assignment complete Unsuccessful handover, timer 3107 expires Unsuccessful TCH activation, timer expires while waiting for Channel Activation Ack message. TCH assignment failure. TRX or TSL blocked due to different causes (not real blocking)
Description
Average number of the busy TCHs. The average value is calculated by dividing the value of this counter by the value of the next counter.
Denominator of the average number of busy TCHs (always>0) Number of TCH transactions ended due to a radio failure (Radio Link Timeout). This is effected by low coverage, poor quality, high interference over Air interface Number of TCH transactions ended due to a radio failure on the source channel during a handover attempt. Number of TCH transactions ended due to a failure in the Abis interface during a call in progress. When a TCH transaction ends due to signalling problems in the Abis interface. The signalling problems may include missing acknowledgement of channel activation, missing indication of call establishment, receipt of an error indication, corrupted messages, missing measurement results from the BTS, excessive timing advance or some internal reasons. These failures can also contains situations when the timer T3109 expires in a BSC in call release phase while waiting for the Release Indication. The MS subscriber does not see these failures caused by the T3109 expiry as real drop calls. Blocking caused due to Hardware failure, Site blocked by user, LAPD failure. Counters LAPD_failure, BTS_failure, User_act or Netw_act are updated as well when blocking cause occurs.

Handover basics
Note that in S10 the counters cell_* mean intra-BTS (Cell in S10 in general means Segment)
cell_drop_calls At a success one of these is triggered: cell_sdcch cell_ sdcch_tch cell_tch_tch At an attempt one of these is triggered: cell_sdcch_at cell_ sdcch_tch _at cell_tch_tch_at If target is congested: Cell_fail_lack
= Adjacency
HO attempt: The BSC receives measurements from the BTS. It processes the measurements and decides on the handover algorithm. If thresholds have been triggered for the handover, the BSC generates a candidate (target) cell list and starts the handover attempt. If candidate list is not generated for some reason then HO is not attempted.
HO success Handover complete message is the triggering point for the successful handover counters. HO attempt & congestion: If first cell in the candidate list occurs congested the blocking counter is triggered and the next cell is attempted.
