Advanced MAC Configuration
Figure 3-3 Advanced MAC Screen
The following advanced MAC parameters may be set or viewed:
NOTE: These parameters should be modified only by experienced users. Please refer to the IEEE 802.16-2004
standard.
• DCD Interval: Time between the transmissions of Downlink Channel Descriptor (DCD) messages. Setting this value
high saves bandwidth, but it may take longer for an SS to enter the network. Enter a value between 100 - 10000
milliseconds.
• UCD Interval: Time between the transmissions of Uplink Channel Descriptor (UCD) messages. Setting this value high
saves bandwidth, but it may take longer for an SS to enter the network. Enter a value between 100 - 10000
milliseconds.
• Initial Ranging Interval: Time between initial ranging requests. Setting this value high saves bandwidth, but it may
take longer to enter the network. Enter a value between 20-2000 milliseconds.
• TEK Lifetime: The length of time that a Traffic Encryption Key is valid. Minimum value is 30 minutes; maximum is 7
days. The default is 30 minutes.
• GPS Sync: Enables or disables synchronization of transmission and reception periods with co-located base stations.
The GPS accessory must be attached to the BS in order for synchronization to operate.
CAUTION: When GPS Sync is enabled, all BSs in an area must use the same frame duration and uplink/downlink
modulation.
