The TRM software is stored in the FLASH memory on the FUC board. After 
the DSP is restarted, the FUC software loads the CHP software to the CHP 
and CIP through the HPI interface. 
The software loading procedure is described as follows:  
1. The CMM sends to the FUC the “software loading initialization” 
message. 
2.  The FUC returns the CMM the “software loading initialization finished” 
message. 
3.  The CMM divides the software versions into message segments and 
sends them to the FUC one by one. 
4. When all software data are sent, the CMM sends to the FUC the 
“software loading finished” message. 
5. The FUC returns the CMM the “software loading finished 
acknowledgement” message. 
Ultra Distance Coverage 
Configured into a super-large cell, theoretically, it can support the ultra 
distance cell with a coverage radius of up to 120 km. 
According to the GSM protocol, the maximum access radius of the GSM 
system is 35 km, and the corresponding time advance (TA) is 63. Some 
application cases, however, require a coverage radius of larger than 35 
km(i.e. time advance is greater than 63), such as ocean and islands, 
desert and rare route area. 
When the coverage radius is larger than 35 km, the MS should support a 
time advance > 63. However, the GSM900 MS can only recognize the time 
advance of up to 63. It is impractical to upgrade the great number of 
existing MSs, so the BSS should be upgraded to break the 35 km 
limitation. 
The system implementation plan is: To implement the functions of one 
channel by using two timeslots. In this way, the software processing may 
guarantee the coverage is within 0 km ~ 120 km in radius. 
In the case the GSM900 system has a coverage  of  larger  than  35  km  in 
radius, when an MS sends a channel request, the access burst pulse 
received at the BTS side will cross two timeslots, so the control channel 
needs two physical channels, which are two continuous timeslots. 
The maximum timing advance of the MS on a wireless interface is 63. 
When the air delay is greater than 63, the time when the signal arrives at 
the BTS will cross two timeslots, as shown in Figure 72. As a result, the 
dedicated control channel and service channel need two adjacent physical 
channels too.
