It’s send by the BSC whenever the allocation of a TSL to a new PS call results into a change in the current resource being allocated to an already existing PS call in the opposite direction, in that case the BSC may decide and sends a packet time slot reconfiguration to the MS. For example, if a DL PS call is required to be established on the PACCH of an existing Uplink TBF or a a UL PS call establishment is required using Packet Downlink Ack/Nack msg and the BSC decides that TSL re-allocation is needed, in that case the BSC will send a PTR message to the MS.
