Bearer Configuration
Configure the parameters of the bearer.
The parameters of the bearer can be specified on the Bearer
Configuration dialog.
Tip: The Bearer
Configuration dialog opens after clicking the Add
or Edit button on the System Configuration
dialog.
Figure 1. The Bearer Configuration dialog.
- Name
- Arbitrary name of bearer.
- ID
- Unique ID of bearer (can not be changed).
- Type
- Type of bearer (for example circuit switched, packet switched).
- Priority
- Priority level of bearer.
- QoS Class
- Quality of service class for this bearer.
- Downlink / Uplink
-
- Data Rate
- Net data rate of bearer.
- Required SNIR
- Minimum signal-to-noise-and-interference-ratio that is required to use this bearer. Receiver locations where the predicted SNIR is above this threshold will be assigned to this transmission mode and the maximum available data rate for the corresponding Rx locations will be set to the value specified for this bearer.
- Required Signal Level
- Threshold of signal level, which is required to use this bearer.
- Max. TX Power
- Maximum transmit power that can be used for this bearer.
- Power Backoff
- Power headroom that can be specified related to maximum available transmit
power of the transmitter. This headroom can be used to reduce available
transmission power and therefore crosstalk probability for high modulation
and coding schemes.Note: This backoff value influences only the transmit power used for data transmission. The power assigned for pilot signals is not influenced.
