Before an MS sends a packet, PAGCH allocates one or more PDTCHs to 
the MS for packet transfer. When the MS already works in the packet 
transmission mode, the resources allocated can also be transferred in 
the PACCH. 
 
PNCH is used for notifying the MS of PTM-M calls. The DRX mode is 
necessary for monitoring PNCH. 
ii.  Packet Broadcast Control Channel (PBCCH) 
PBCCH broadcasts the PSI (Packet System Information) and the 
parameters carried by PSI determine the mapping of all kinds of 
channels on the multi-frames. 
If no PBCCH is allocated, the information can also be transferred 
over the BCCH.BCCH will clearly indicate whether the cell supports 
packet data service. If the cell supports packet data service and 
PBCCH is available, then the combined configuration information on 
the PBCCH will be presented. 
iii.  Packet dedicated control channel 
 
The PACCH transmits signaling information, such as confirmation and 
power control. It also carries resource allocation and reallocation 
messages, which can be used to allocate PDTCH capacity or add new 
PACCH in the future. When an MS is making packet transmission, it 
can page via PACCH and enter the circuit switching mode. The PACCH 
is dynamically allocated to the physical channel which carries PDTCH. 
It is a bidirectional channel. 
 
PTCCH/U transfers the random access burst pulse and estimates the 
time advance amount of an MS in the packet transmission mode. 
The period of PTCCH/U is 8 52-multiframes, including 16 PTCCH/U sub-
channels. The PTCCH/U sub-channel number possessed by each MS is 
determined by the TAI (Time Advance Index) obtained by the MS in 
resource allocation. 
Figure 1-6 shows the mapping of PTCCH/U on the physical channel. 
 
PTCCH/D is used to correct the time lead of several MSs. 
One PTCCH/D corresponds to several PTCCH/U. 
PTCCH/D is interleaved on four bursts. 
Figure 20 shows the mapping of PTCCH/D on the physical channel.
