Overview
2.1
Feature Introduction
With the development of mobile communication services, how to optimize the radio
resource, and how to improve the wireless utilization efficiency under the limited
spectrum resources, while improving the network call quality, and thus correspondingly
ZGO-03-02-013
increasing the consumer satisfaction is becoming more and more important. Based on
the above background, HR/FR or AMR HR/AMR FR adjustment function is generated.
The demand required to achieve FR/HR call conversion, and AMR FR/AMR HR
transformation, and then achieving a balance between the system capacity and the voice
quality. When the cell load is high, and if the wireless quality is good, then FR can be
converted into HR, or AMR FR can be converted into AMR HR, which can increase
system capacity while ensuring the call quality. When the wireless quality is poor, then
HR can be converted into FR or AMR HR can be converted into AMR FR, thus ensuring
the normal call.

Correlation with Other Features

This feature is functionally related to the following feature: ZGO-05-05-004 Abis
Triggered FR/HR Adaptation. Please refer to this feature for detailed relation.
Technical Description
The FR / HR dynamic adjustment is achieved mainly based on two parts: the cell load
adjustment and the quality trigger.
ZGO-03-02-013
3.1
Basic Principle
3.1.1
Based on cell load
In order to get more channel resources, when cell load reached a certain level, which is
more than the load handover threshold from AMR FR to AMR HR, then it can select the
appropriate handover initiated from AMR FR call to AMR HR.
If the load continues to ratchet up over the handover load threshold from FR to HR, and if
no suitable AMR FR calls can handover to AMR HR, then it can continue to select
suitable FR call to initiate the handover from FR to HR, thus can improve the system
capacity
3.1.2
Based on quality trigger

In order to improve voice call quality, when the quality below a certain threshold, then it
can launch the intra-cell handover to access better channel resources to get better voice
quality.
The specific decision process can be put on the handover decision office, if the original
handover conditions are not met, then for the HR and AMR HR call, it needs to continue
to determine the voice quality. If the HR call voice quality meets the requirement of
handover from HR to FR, then the handover from HR to FR can be initiated.
And if AMR
HR call voice quality meets the requirement of handover from AMR HR to AMR FR, and
then the handover from AMR HR to AMR FR can be initiated
3.2
Principle Elaboration
3.2.1
Based on cell load

The cell load is calculated as follows:
LOAD = the number of busy channels in the cell * 100 / (the number of busy channels in
the cell+ the number of free channels in the cell)
ZGO-03-02-013
The cell load is calculated for each channel applications. When cell load is more than the
handover threshold from AMR FR to AMR HR, then it sends a message
EV_AMRFRHOENABLE to notify the service process. Similarly, when cell load is more
than the handover threshold from FR to HR, then it sends a message EV_FRHOENABLE
to notify the service process.
when service process received the above message, it needs to select the handover call
candidate, and then select a call to handover by considering the voice call quality: (a)
when service process received EV_AMRFRHOENABLE or EV_FRHOENABLE message,
it can select a AMR FR call as the handover candidate from the existing calls of a cell,
and the voice quality of this call must meet the threshold requirements. (b) If the received
message is EV_FRHOENABLE, but no suitable AMR FR call can be found, then it can
continue to select a FR call as the handover candidate. And similarly, the voice quality of
this call must meet the threshold requirements. (C) A message only trigger a call to
handover.
The decision process of deciding whether the voice quality is higher than the handover
threshold is as follows : If there are a number of LoadAndQualHoP values in a continuous
number of LoadAndQualHoN values, whose signal quality are less than the handover
threshold FrOrAmrFrHoQuaThr (the voice quality is described by the bit error rate, so it
should be lower than the threshold to show the better quality), then it can be considered
as satisfying the handover conditions, and so it can be handover candidates.
3.2.2
Based on quality triger

Decision process is like as others:
1.
For

call,
if

LoadAndQualHoP
values,
whose
values
qualities
of
are

higher
than
HrHoQuaThr(Quality is described by the bit error rate, so quality is bad when its
value is
higher than threshold),,then it is considered as satisfying the handover
conditions and can be used as handover candidate.

2.
For AMR HR call, if there are LoadAndQualHoP values of
continuous of
LoadAndQualHoP signal values, whose qualities are higher than AmrHoQuaThr

(Quality is described by the bit error rate, so quality is bad when its value is higher
ZGO-03-02-013
than threshold), then it is considered as satisfying the handover conditions and can
be used as handover candidate.
