Multi-carrier binding brings the forward peak rate up to 9.3 Mbps and the reverse peak rate up to 5.4 Mbps. Multi-carrier binding increases the high-rate coverage area and helps to enhance the experience of edge users. Multi-carrier binding decomposes a high-rate data flow into multiple low-rate data flows for transmission and thus reduces the required Eb/Nt and access terminal (AT) power and increases the reverse capacity. Multilink Radio Link Protocol (RLP), multi-carrier best-effort assignment, and adaptive load balancing help to obtain a frequency diversity gain and increase the resource utilization and thus bring a 525% increase of forward capacity (according to Qualcomm's emulation).
Feedback multiplexing enables more efficient use of CEs. Support for 8192-byte packets and 64 quadrature amplitude modulation (64QAM) increases the forward peak rate of one carrier to 4.9 Mbps and that of three bound carriers up to 14.7 Mbps. DRX, DTX, and QPCH capabilities reduce the power consumption of terminals effectively and the total time of user communication is 30% longer. The CSM6850 chip integrates TIC and PIC functions with higher spectrum efficiency and larger voice over IP (VoIP) capacity.

Multi-carrier binding creates a resource pool and enables adaptive load balancing. Compared with a single-carrier system, a multi-carrier system enables joint scheduling of service requests over multiple carriers with the frequency selectiveness of radio channels. The system thus obtains a diversity gain from scheduling and therefore the system capacity is increased. In addition, if a high-rate data flow over one carrier is decomposed into multiple middle/low-rate data flows over multiple carriers, a higher HARQ gain will be obtained and the transmit power of the terminal will be lower and thus the data throughput of the system will be increased.

As shown in Figure 1-3, to avoid incorrect detection of packet loss, multilink RLP adopts a link number QN on the basis of the RLP number. The terminal checks for packet loss on a link according to the QN and recombines packets received on different links according to the RLP number. The QN is not used when a packet is retransmitted. The QN must be long enough to avoid cyclic repetition of QNs on one link. Figure 1-3 RLP retransmission of DORB

After multi-carrier binding is adopted in DORB, high-rate data will be transmitted over multiple carriers in parallel. The RLP function of the BSC will schedule data among multiple carriers and the retransmission technique of DORA will be inapplicable to multi-carrier transmission. According to the RLP retransmission technique of DORA, when the terminal receives packets numbered 2, 3, and 5, the terminal requests retransmission of the No. 4 packet. But in fact, the No. 4 packet is not transmitted yet, as shown in Figure 1-3. For the need of retransmission, DORB adopts QNs on every carrier. If the terminal detects discontinuous QNs on one carrier, there is loss of packets. As shown in Figure 1-3, because QNs are continuous on both carriers, the terminal will not request retransmission of the No.4 packet. If the terminal finds the QNs of one carrier are discontinuous, the terminal initiates a Quick NAK, requesting the BSC for retransmission. In this case, the BSC does not retransmit all packets. Instead, the BSC finds the packets associated with the missing QNs on the relevant carrier. Some packets are transmitted over other carriers and the Quick NAK is targeted at only packets lost on the local carrier. Multilink RLP is necessary only when different chips are used. Because two-carrier binding can be implemented by one CSM800 chip, multilink RLP is not adopted. In addition, in the reverse direction, the terminal uses a single chip to schedule packets. The time sequence of initially sent packets is definite. Therefore, multilink RLP is not required. Figure 1-4 shows the multi-carrier transmission in the reverse direction.

balancing is unable to achieve balance of loads in a short time. DORA adopts static load balancing, which is implemented through hard assignment. Adaptive load balancing splits all packets to transmit evenly to all carriers through collaboration of the access network and the AT and thus achieves balance of loads among all carriers. DORB adopts adaptive load balancing. Figure 1-5 shows the adaptive load balancing. Figure 1-5 Adaptive load balancing
(1) When the session begins, the network negotiates the multi-carrier capability of the terminal with the terminal. (2) During the setup of the connection, the network assigns a carrier to the terminal through a TCA message according to the flow request and available power margin of the terminal.

(3) When the connection is kept alive, the network can reassign a carrier or delete the assigned carrier dynamically. (4) The network can assign more carriers according to the length of the forward user queue. The terminal sends a CarrierRequeset to the network and the network sends a TCA message in response to assign another carrier to the terminal. (5) On the reverse link, if the available power margin is insufficient, the terminal may delete a carrier automatically. Figure 1-7 shows the signaling flow of multi-carrier assignment.

(1) The connection setup initiated by an AT is the same as in DORA. (2) Multiple carriers are assigned through a multi-carrier TCA message to set up a multi-carrier link. (3) When one reverse link is captured, the connection is set up successfully and step 4 proceeds. If no reverse link is captured, the connection setup fails. (4) The reverse links of other carriers are captured. If the capture fails, step 5 proceeds.

I. Pilot Group
In EV-DO Rev.B, pilots with the same PN offset and the same coverage are categorized in one pilot group. The terminal does not need to report pilot strength repeatedly for the multiple pilots in one pilot group but only needs to report the strength of the primary pilot. The Multi-Carrier Routing Update Protocol (MC RUP) will add all pilots in one pilot group to the active set. In the active set, candidate set, and neighbor set, the terminal reports only the strength of one pilot in one set. The active set may include multiple pilots from one pilot group but the candidate set or neighbor set includes only one pilot from one pilot group. Furthermore, a pilot leaving the active set will not necessarily join the candidate set. The pilot joins the candidate set only when the pilot group of the pilot is not in the active set. This means, no pilot of a pilot group in the active set will be in the candidate set or neighbor set. Figure 1-8 shows the division of pilot groups. Figure 1-8 Pilot groups

each timeslot, bytes in all queues of a user compose a candidate transport instance in descending order of priority. The scheduler calculates the priority of each user packet according to the given candidate transport instance with reference to the packet format supported by the current air interface environment and decides the user whose candidate transport instance will be transmitted in the timeslot by comparing the priority of packets. The forward air interface scheduling algorithm is implemented by the BTS chip, which decides the user that a given timeslot will serve. Because a DORB system supports multilink RLP, a forward scheduling algorithm is necessary at both the SAR and QN layers. The forward scheduling algorithm of the SAR layer is implemented by FMR. Assignment of resources to different QNs is decided according to the algorithm. The scheduling algorithm in the QN layer is implemented by the BTS chip in the same way as the air interface scheduling algorithm of DORA. Figure 1-11 shows the forwarding scheduling of DORB.

(2) Increase of reverse rate and capacity Multi-carrier binding brings the reverse near-point peak rate to N x 1.8 Mbps. Due to the restriction of AT power, the reverse far-point peak rate is not N times higher. Figure 1-14 shows the reverse capacity increase according to Qualcomm. Figure 1-14 Increase of reverse capacity
In addition, multi-carrier binding can decompose one high-rate data flow into multiple low-rate data flows for transmission and thus reduce the required Eb/Nt and AT transmit power. Therefore, the reverse capacity and reverse high-rate coverage are increased.

Scenario 1: Initially, multi-carrier DORB is deployed only in hot-spot areas. Network construction is more flexible and the cost of construction is saved. As high-value data users are mainly indoor users, indoor deployment of DORB is enhanced in the initial stage. Figure 1-16 Initial DORB deployment
Scenario 2: DORB only coverage is gradually deployed on the entire network, which avoids active personality handoff between DORB and DORA and improves the continuity of real-time services. Figure 1-17 Mature DORB deployment

2 Frequency Planning
2.1 Frequency Deployment Strategy
Due to the multi-carrier binding feature of DORB, there must be at least two DO frequencies to construct a DORB network. Restricted by the terminal chip, DORB supports binding of at most three carriers. If frequency resources permit, three-carrier binding is recommended, which can improve the experience of edge users and increase the high-rate coverage. Carriers bound by DORB may be discontinuous carriers in one frequency band or carriers spanning sub-bands. The largest frequency span between the carriers must not exceed the frequency band width of the terminal chip. At present, the frequency band width supported by the QSD8650 chip is 5 MHz. In view of the chip restriction and the difficulty of implementation, the binding of three continuous carriers in one frequency band is recommended. Furthermore, unlike the descending order of 1X frequencies, the ascending order of DORB frequencies is recommended. For example, the order of 1X frequency numbers is 283, 242, and 201 and the order of DO frequency numbers is 37, 78, and 119. If frequency resources permit, inter-band DORB deployment can be considered and indoor and outdoor networks can be separate to enhance the user experience.

3 Coverage Analysis
EV-DO Rev.B phase 1 is in nature the binding of multiple EV-DO Rev.A carriers. Therefore, the coverage performance of one carrier is the same as that of an EV-DO Rev.A carrier. In multi-carrier deployment, EV-DO Rev.B is laid over the existing

EV-DO Rev.A to enlarge the high-rate coverage area and increase the edge rate. The edge rate thus achieved is unreachable by EV-DO Rev.A. (1) Multilink RLP and multi-carrier best-effort assignment: For a same application rate R, EV-DO Rev.B requires only R/N from one carrier in comparison with EV-DO Rev.A. Accordingly, the demodulation threshold and power are much lower than when the entire R rate is carried over a single EV-DO Rev.A carrier. The coverage radius is thus larger. As for the user, the coverage of high-rate R is greatly enlarged. (2) The cell edge rate of EV-DO Rev.A is R. When EV-DO Rev.B is deployed at the same site, because N carriers are bound, the edge rate is N x R. For example, if the edge rate of EV-DO Rev.A is 200 kbps, the edge rate of three-carrier EV-DO Rev.B is 3 x 200 = 600 kbps. The overall rate of network coverage is improved.

As shown in Table 3-2, when the cell edge service rate is the same (76.8 kbps), the reverse cell radius of DORB 2X or DORB 3X is smaller than that of DORA. The DORB terminal reduces the number of carriers from three to two or one automatically when its power is insufficient. Therefore, in fact, the reverse coverage of DORB may be considered to be the same as that of DORA. Note: The reduction of carriers is decided by the terminal. The transmit power of the terminal is unknown to the system. All DORB terminals have the function, which is implemented by Qualcomm chips.

3.4 Summary
Considering the balance of forward and reverse links, under the same user experience, DORB is better than DORA in terms of forward coverage. Owing to the forward interference, the cell edge C/I of DORA is subject to an upper limit. Accordingly, the forward edge rate also has an upper limit Redge. After the multi-carrier DORB system is deployed, the forward edge service rate perceived by the user is up to N x Redge. The inherent edge rate limit of the single-carrier DORA is thus broken. The reverse rate is restricted by the power of the terminal. The edge service rate perceived by a user is equivalent to that of DORA. Within a cell where power restriction is not present, however, the service rate perceived by a user is N times that of DORA.
4 Capacity Planning
4.1 Throughput per Sector
Because of the multi-carrier binding of DORB, the forward peak rate of 2X will rise to 6.2 Mbps and that of 3X will rise to 9.3 Mbps. The distribution of forward rates of DORA, DORB 2X and DORB 3X is shown in Figure 4-1, according to the emulation of Qualcomm.

As shown in Figure 4-1, the throughput per sector of DORB 2X and DORB 3X is respectively increased to 2.5 Mbps and 3.8 Mbps relative to DORA.

Where: Nmax is the maximum number of users simultaneously accessed to a cell; W/R is the spreading gain, where W = 1.2288 MHz and R = 9.6 kpbs; is the voice activity factor which equals 0.45; Eb/Nt is the required signal to noise ratio which equals 4.955 dB;
The calculation result is Nmax=60.69. Allowing for a 5 dB margin (68.37% load), the allowed number of users is 60.69 x 68.37% = 41.5.

is obtained through calculation. According to the MSO model, there are 29% full rate channels, 4% 1/2 rate channels, 7% 1/4 rate channels, 6% 1/8 rate channels, and 54% idle channels. Considering a 22-byte voice payload and an 8-byte overhead, the equivalent voice activity factor is 0.45. Therefore, in the case of 5 dB rise, the number of VoIP users is 42, close to the emulation result of Qualcomm. For DORB, the supported number of VoIP users is two times (2X binding) or three times (3X binding) that of DORA, in particular, 84 and 126.
4.1.2 BE Throughput
I. Forward BE Throughput
Forward BE services are relevant to the terminal type, user distribution, terminal movement, HARQ, radio channel environment and scheduling algorithm. Figure 4-2 shows the emulation result of forward BE throughput of DORA. Huawei's emulation result is close to that of Qualcomm. Figure 4-2 Forward BE throughput
In capacity planning, to ensure the Internet experience of broadband users, the recommended forward BE throughput of DORA is 1.2 Mbps. For DORB 2X and DORB 3X, considering the scheduler gain of BE services, the forward BE throughputs are respectively 2.5 Mbps and 3.8 Mbps.

In Figure 4-3, the reverse throughput per sector is obtained by averaging the throughputs of 57 sectors. It is the largest throughput among all sectors where the probability of ROT larger than 7 dB is below 1%. The emulation result of Huawei is consistent with that of Qualcomm. In capacity planning, to ensure the Internet experience of broadband users, the recommended reverse BE throughput of DORA is 600700 kbps, depending on the number of ongoing connections. For DORB 2X and DORB 3X, because the service rate is two or three times that of DORA, the reverse BE throughputs are respectively 1.21.4 Mbps and 1.82.1 Mbps.

As shown in Figure 4-4, when 30 VoIP users are on the forward link, 50% of the forward load is occupied and the forward throughput of BE will be 50% down. Therefore, for DORB 3X, in the case of 10 VoIP users, the forward BE throughput is 3.8 Mbps x 0.75 = 2.8 Mbps; in the case of 20 VoIP users, the forward BE throughput is 3.8 Mbps x 0.69 = 2.6 Mbps; in the case of 42 VoIP users, the forward BE throughput is 3.8 Mbps x 0.4 = 1.5 Mbps.

connection requires one CE. A BE session can be carried over multiple carriers and one connection requires multiple CEs. The users on the network are diversified. The reverse service type and traffic (data services can be converted into equivalent traffic) initiated by each user are different. To calculate the number of CEs required by a DORB phase 1 system, we first consider the situation where every user has an active BE session. The formula and calculation of CEs required by DORB phase 1 are as follows: [Number of users active in simultaneous BE sessions (M) x (1 + rate of soft handoff) + 1] x number of bound carriers (N) Where: The number of users active in simultaneous BE sessions (M) = reverse sector carrier BE throughput / reverse average BE rate, and particularly, M = 2100 kbps / 122.8 kbps = 17; The number of bound carriers (N) is 3 in the case of DORB 3X and 2 in the case of DORB 2X; The rate of reverse soft handoff is 35%. The result is: DORB 3X requires 72 CEs; DORB 2X requires 48 CEs. In the case of A VoIP users and B BE users, the number of CEs required by DORB phase 1 is A x (1 + 35%) + B x (1 + 35%) x N + N, where N is the number of bound carriers. In particular, in the case of 30 VoIP users and 10 BE users, the number of CEs required by DORB 3X is 84.
6 Emulation
The existing U-Net emulation tool does not support DORB emulation. The DORB emulation support is planned to be implemented in the first quarter of 2010.

Table 7-1 Differences between DORA and DORB Key feature Differences between DORA and DORB In DORA, data flows from the PCF to the FMR and the FMR further sends the data to the AT on one Forward data service link. In DORB, forward data also flows from the PCF to the FMR but the FMR sends the data to Improvement the AT on multiple service links. This means the FMR sends data to the AT simultaneously in multiple sub-active sets. In Reverse reception DORB, reverse data must be received Attribute
transmission
simultaneously in multiple sub-active sets. The data selective combination of received data in one active set is almost the same as the DORA procedure. The difference is the unified sorting of selectively combined data in multiple active sets. Because there are multiple carriers on the forward link of DORB, the data packets sent over each FMR processing AT's requests of data carrier are different and the packets over one of carrier are unnecessarily continuous. The BTS sets data a transmitting queue QN for each carrier active in transmission and the packets sent from each QN Improvement encapsulating a QN header to the original packets. When a packet is retransmitted, no QN header is added because the packet can be transmitted in a queue of any QN. In DORB, an AT works in Lock or Unlock mode depending on the configuration. The difference between the two modes is: in Lock mode, the DRCs of three sub-active sets can point to only one Virtual handoff soft PN; once the DRC Cover changes, handoff must take place in the three sub-active sets. In Unlock mode, the DRCs of three sub-active sets may point to different PNs and their handoff is independent of each other. Therefore, the AN must support virtual soft handoff in the two modes.

Attribute
To enable DORB terminals to better use DORB functions on a DORB network, DORB service negotiation needs to be added. DORB supports three personalities. Personality 0 is DO0, personality 1 is DOA and personality 2 is DOB. During session negotiation, the AN decides the Session negotiation number of personalities and the specific personalities to negotiate according to the type of AT. For a DO0 terminal, only one personality is negotiated, specifically DO0. For a DOA terminal, two personalities are negotiated, DO0 and DOA. For a DOB terminal, two personalities are negotiated, DOA (personality 0) and DOB (personality 1). After adoption of DORB, in the case of a DORB terminal, one call can be bound with multiple carriers. Setup release multi-carrier calls The associated changes. resource allocation, are and resource management, and procedures all need of appropriate DORB services supported and one call is bound with multiple carriers. The associated resource allocation and links all change accordingly. When a call is released, all allocated links and resources must be released. New Improvement

Key feature
Differences between DORA and DORB After a DORB terminal sets up a DORB service session, the AN can add carriers dynamically and the AT also initiates carrier addition requests actively. The processing complies with the original soft handoff procedure. The document only

describes the procedure where the AT actively sends a carrier addition request. The procedure New where the AN adds a carrier actively is the same. After the DORB terminal sets up the DORB service session, the AN can delete a carrier dynamically and the AT may also initiate carrier deletion actively. The processing still complies with the original soft handoff procedure. The call procedure of soft handoff is unchanged but the carrier addition and deletion in the process
Soft handoff
of soft handoff are added in the DORB soft handoff Improvement algorithm and a neighbor list combination algorithm is also added. Both DOA/0 and DOB carriers may be planned on an AN or both an old version and a new version of the AN exist. Therefore, the negotiated attribute has two possibilities: 1. A DOB terminal gets access from the new AN
Idle personality and two attributes (DOA and DOB) will be handoff configured and negotiated, and the AT version is saved as DOB. 2. A DOB terminal gets access from the old AN and two attributes (DO0 and DOA) will be configured and negotiated, and the AT version is saved as DOA.

Key feature
Differences between DORA and DORB The AT gets access from the DOB network and when it moves to the coverage area of a DOA carrier, the AT reports an RU message and the target carrier carried in the message is DOA. The RRM makes a handoff decision and also the personality handoff decision. Then the RRM initiates a hard handoff procedure. If personality handoff is required, personality handoff is performed to hand off the AT to the DOA carrier before the hard handoff.
