Preparation of Neighbour Configuration & Measurement Configuration | Parsing the configuration
- neighbour_config.conf file includes neighbour and measurement related parameters Neighbour List: - nr_cellid: the identity of existing cell who has neighbour - neighbour_cell_configuration(list): includes the identity parameters of the neighbour cell such: - gNBID (incase of N2 Handover / to be identified from AMF) - nr_cell_id (target gNB needs to consider) - physical_cellId (needed for measurement reporting) - absoluteFrequencySSB (needed for measurement reporting) - subcarrierSpacing (needed for measurement reporting) - plmn / tracking area code (incase of N2 Handover / needed for AMF to identify / allow HO) NR Measurement Configuration - Periodical - enable (default is 0, 1 enables the reporting) - includeBeamMeasurements, maxNrOfRS_IndexesToReport (configurable reporting parameters) - A2 - enable (default is 0, 1 enables the reporting) - threshold , timeToTrigger (configurable reporting parameters) - A3 - cell_id (the nr_cellid of neighbour cell. So this A3 parameters will be used for the neighbour - [-1] means default. so it can be applied to any neighbour if there is no specific config - Neighbour specific A3 Threshold can be used or default can be selected depending to the neighbour planning - The neighbour-config.conf specifies, apply default A3 for neighbours 3 and 4 | apply specific one for neighbour 2 - offset, hysteresis, timeToTrigger (configurable reporting parameters) the neighbour_config.conf can be included in the gNB.conf file. Example is given: gnb.sa.band78.106prb.rfsim.neighbour.conf A sequence array container is used for neighbour cell configuration. RRC structure has this container. A Measurement configuration structure is defined. This structure has Periodical / A2 Event structures and also a sequence container for A3 Event List. These structures are filled during the initialization. While F1 Setup Response is coming from DU to CU, the intra frequency / inter frequency neighbour decision is given for the existing cell. Also new neighbours could be added here if needed.
