RLP Info

RLP Parameters

• Number of MFPA Forward RLP Flows

  This setting sets the number of MFPA Forward RLP Flows the test set will configure and activate, including the Default Flow (Flow 00).

• Number of MFPA Reverse RLP Flows

  This setting sets the number of MFPA Reverse RLP Flows the test set will configure and activate, including the Default Flow (Flow 00).

RLP Flow Setup

Five RLP Flows can be activated and configured for Multi-Flow Packet Application. They are Flow 00, Flow 01, Flow 02, Flow 03 and Flow 04. Only when the Flow is activated by the Number of MFPA Forward RLP Flows and Number of MFPA Reverse RLP Flows , you can configure this Flow.

Forward RLP Flow Parms

• MFPA NAK Enable

  When this setting is set to Enable, the AT will enable sending NAKs for missing packets on the associated Forward RLP Flow NN. When set to Disable, the AT will not send NAKs regardless if the packet is missing.

• MFPA Abort Timer

  This setting sets how long the test set will wait before sending the missing octet when it receives the NAK message from the AT. If missing octet has not arrived when its RLP abort timer expires, RLP shall pass all octets in the resequencing buffer up to the missing octet, in order of sequence number, to the higher layer. RLP shall skip any missing octets.

• MFPA Flush Timer

  After transmitting a packet, the RLP transmitter shall start an RLP flush timer. If the RLP transmitter sends another packet before the RLP flush timer expires, the RLP transmitter shall reset and restart the timer. If the timer expires, the RLP transmitter shall disable the flush timer and the RLP transmitter should send an RLP packet that contains at least the octet with last sequence number.

• MFPA Header Size

  The RLP Packet Header, which precedes the RLP payload, includes MFPA RLP ID (Binary) and SEQ (The RLP sequence number of the first octet in the RLP payload). The Header Size specifies the size of the RLP Packet Header, it can be 14 or 22 bits long.

• MFPA RLP ID (Binary)

  RLP ID is the identifier for RLP flow. The RLP IDs of all active RLP flows are required to be uniquely identifiable and prefix-free, otherwise the decoding will be not correct.

Reverse RLP Flow Parms

• MFPA NAK Enable

  When this setting is set to Enable, the AN will enable sending NAKs for missing packets on the associated Reverse RLP Flow NN. When set to Disable, the AN will not send NAKs regardless if the packet is missing.

• MFPA Physical Layer NAK Enable

  When this setting is set to Enable, the AN will enable sending NAKs for missing packets on the Reverse Physical Layer. If set to Disable the AN will not send NAKs. If both MFPA NAK Enable and MFPA Physical Layer NAK Enable are enabled in bad channel, the data will be sent up to 3 times: initial sending, resend from physical layer NAK, and resent from RLP layer NAK.

• MFPA Abort Timer

  This setting sets how long the AT will wait before sending the missing octet when it receives the NAK message from the AN. If missing octet has not arrived when its RLP abort timer expires, RLP shall pass all octets in the resequencing buffer up to the missing octet, in order of sequence number, to the higher layer. RLP shall skip any missing octets.

• MFPA Flush Timer

  After transmitting a packet, the RLP transmitter shall start an RLP flush timer. If the RLP transmitter sends another packet before the RLP flush timer expires, the RLP transmitter shall reset and restart the timer. If the timer expires, the RLP transmitter shall disable the flush timer and the RLP transmitter should send an RLP packet that contains at least the octet with last sequence number.

• MFPA Header Size

  The RLP Packet Header, which precedes the RLP payload, includes MFPA RLP ID (Binary) and SEQ (The RLP sequence number of the first octet in the RLP payload). The Header Size specifies the size of the RLP Packet Header, it may be 14 or 22 bits long.

• MFPA RLP ID (Binary)

  RLP ID is the identifier for RLP flow. The RLP IDs of all active RLP flows are required to be uniquely identifiable and prefix-free, otherwise the decoding will be not correct.

• MFPA RTC MAC Flow Mapping

  This setting determines which RTC MAC Flow the Reverse RLP Flow NN should be transmitted on.

• MFPA Data Over Signaling Allowed

  When this setting is set to On, the Data Over Signaling (DOS) Protocol for Multi-Flow Packet Application is enabled and the MFPA packets can be recepted on the R-Access Channel. The DOS packets sent on the R-Access Channel will be counted in Reverse Link DOS Octets Counter and Reverse Link DOS Packets Counter.
