GSM Overlaid Subcell Locating data

Overlaid Subcell Locating data
Parameter	Description	Range	Ericsson Dafault Value	Remarks
LOL	Pathloss threshold.	0 to 200		Pathloss threshold. It defines the OL subcell coverage border in terms of the pathloss from the serving cell.
LOLHYST		0 to 63		Hysteresis for the pathloss criterion during evaluations for the OL subcell coverage.
DTCB:		-63 to 63	-63	Distance to cell border threshold. It defines the OL subcell coverage border in terms of the signal strength difference between the active channel and the strongest neighbouring BCCHs.
DTCBHYST		0 to 63		Hysteresis for the DTCB criterion during evaluations for the OL subcell coverage.
NDIST		0 to 63		Distance to cell border additional threshold.
NNCELLS		1 to 5		Number of strongest neighbouring BCCHs for the DTCB criterion. See the comments for NDIST.
