• Neighbor. This is the place to configure information about neighbor Base Stations (Figure 71).
This is required for handover operation. The neighbor list is specified in Figure 72. This can be
left unconfigured if no handover is required. For each neighbor, the following needs to be
configured:
o BS id: This is the BSID of neighbor bs. Use upper case letters only. BSID of the
neighboring base stations should have same operator id as the serving base station,
i.e. the upper 6 bytes should be same.
o IP Address: This is the IP address of the neighbor base station.
o Preamble Index: This is the preamble-index (or Cell-ID parameter) of the neighbor
base station.
o BS Index: This is a user defined number in the range of 1-254. The index of 255 has
a special meaning. When this index is set to 255 then the neighbor will be
considered as a non-Mercury base station, and Mercury base station will
unconditionally accept the handover request. No backbone communication will
take place.
o BS Frequency: This is the frequency of the neighbor base station in KHz.
