Functional Description
The NCP/CCP management refers to the maintenance of NBAP signaling channel status
between RNC and Node B. Each Node B has a Node B Control Port (NCP) and several
Communication Control Ports (CCPs). The NCP is used to transmit and receive the NBAP
messages and implement logical O&M of Node B which is independent of specific UEs and
contains public process and global process, for example, AUDIT, cell setup and radio link
setup. As the communication context channels controlled by Node B, CCPs are used to
carry NBAP dedicated signaling and control Node B communication context.
The RNC initiates the NCP and CCP setup procedure which can also be initiated by Node
B when the system is started or a Node B is added in the OMCR. After the NCP and CCPs
are available, the RNC can exchange NBAP messages with Node B. After that, both RNC
and Node B will monitor the status of NCP and CCPs, and decides whether to continue
service provision or re-establish links based on the status of NCP and CCPs.
When a Node B is deleted in the OMCR, the RNC will delete the links related to the Node
B, and terminate the NCP and CCP services of the Node B.
