This page collects some information regarding Ericsson RBS2000 GPRS support.

The fundamental difference between what we do so far (PCU co-located with BTS) and this architecture is that the PCU is co-located with the BSC!

In order to have (E)GPRS support using RBS2000, we need to solve the following parts:
8
* configuration / activation of timeslots using OML2000 / RSL?
9
* ensuring that GPRS related SI, particularly SI13 are broadcast via BCCH
10
* implementation of PCU TRAU frame format and converter between osmo-pcu PHY interface and them
11
** 16k sub-slot and 64k slot formats
12
** associated PCU SYNC protocol
13
** all various coding schemes
14
* paging coordination between BSC and PCU

h2. PDCH timeslot configuration

It seems that in OM2000 all TCH (/F, /H, PDCH) are configued with a Combination "8", and no differentiation is made

The actual activation of the channel is expected via RSL.  So it's analogous to a RSL CHAN ACT for TCH/H or TCH/F, but we also do this for a PDCH. In order to do so, we send a RSL CHAN ACT with Channel Number 0b11000 + the timeslot number.  Deactivation works the same way.
