CE Overbooking
2 Overview
2 Overview
After WRFD-010638 Dynamic CE Resource Management is applied, the RNC calculates the credit
resource usage of an admitted HSUPA UE by using the following formula:
Credit resource usage = Max (Credit resources required for ensuring the GBR, Credit resources required
for transmitting one RLC PDU)
In the preceding formula, GBR stands for guaranteed bit rate and RLC PDU stands for Radio Link
Control packet data unit. The RNC performs this calculation to ensure HSUPA user experience.
However, the actual CE usage of the NodeB is lower than the calculated credit resource usage of the
RNC. This is because the NodeB calculates the actual CE usage based on the UE rate. The UE rate is
lower than the GBR or the rate at which an RLC PDU is transmitted in most cases due to the high
penetration rate of smart phones with a 2 ms HSUPA transmission time interval (TTI). As a result, the
RNC may reject new UE access attempts even if the actual CE usage of the NodeB is low. This limits the
RNC's capability to perform admission control based on credit resource usage.
To address this issue, Huawei introduces CE Overbooking. With this feature, the NodeB calculates the
actual CE usage of admitted UEs, includes the calculated CE usage in a private information element (IE)
in the Common Measurement Report message, and sends the report to the RNC every measurement
report period that is configured by the TenMsecForUlBasicMeas parameter. The RNC then directly
uses the reported CE usage as the credit resource usage. This maximizes the RNC's capability to
perform admission control based on credit resource usage.
When the penetration rate of smart phones with a 2 ms HSUPA TTI is high, the average HSUPA service
throughput is low, and this feature provides the following benefits:
Reduces the credit resource usage of admitted UEs.
Increases the number of admitted UEs and the number of HSUPA UEs with a 2 ms TTI.
Increases the cell uplink throughput when Uu and Iub resources are sufficient.
Figure 2-1 shows the working principles of CE Overbooking.

Figure 2-1 CE Overbooking
This feature applies only to uplink CE resources.

Before enabling this feature, Dynamic CE Resource Management must be enabled. For details about
Dynamic CE Resource Management, see the HSUPA Feature Parameter Description.

3 Technical Principles
CE Overbooking is under NodeB license control and has no switch parameter on the RNC or NodeB
side.
The credit resource usage that the NodeB periodically calculates and reports to the RNC involves the
credit resource usage of R99 UEs and that of HSUPA UEs.
Table 3-1 describes the methods for calculating the credit resource usage before and after this feature is
activated and presumes that the Dynamic CE Resource Management feature has been enabled.
Table 3-1 Credit resource calculation methods before and after activating this feature
CE
Overbooking
Credit Resources Consumed by Admitted UEs
Not activated
The RNC calculates the amount of credit resources consumed by admitted

UEs as follows:
For R99 UEs, the RNC calculates the amount of credit resources consumed
by admitted UEs based on the maximum bit rate (MBR).
For HSUPA UEs, the RNC calculates the amount of credit resources
consumed by admitted UEs using the following formula:
Amount of credit resources consumed by admitted UEs = Max (Amount of

credit resources required for ensuring the GBR, Amount of credit resources
required for transmitting one RLC PDU)
Activated
The NodeB calculates the amount of credit resources consumed by admitted

UEs as follows:
For R99 UEs, the NodeB calculates the amount of credit resources
consumed by admitted UEs based on the MBR.
For HSUPA UEs using a 10 ms TTI, the NodeB adjusts the amount of credit
resources consumed by admitted UEs based on the UE data rate. The
amount after adjustment does not exceed the amount of credit resources
required for transmitting one RLC PDU.
For HSUPA UEs using a 2 ms TTI, the NodeB adjusts the amount of credit
resources consumed by admitted UEs based on the UE data rate and the
setting of the REVDPARA4 parameter. The amount after adjustment does
not exceed the amount of credit resources required for transmitting one RLC
PDU.
NOTE
REVDPARA4 indicates the minimum CE reserved for admitted 2 ms TTI HSUPA UE. Its
value rang is 1 to 8 with the default value of 4 (unit: CE). If this parameter is set to a value
beyond its value range, the system uses the default parameter value. A smaller value of
this parameter leads to a larger number of admitted users. In this case, the call drop rate
may increase and user experience cannot be guaranteed. A larger value of this
parameter leads to a smaller number of admitted users. In this case, the call drop rate
does not increase and user experience can be guaranteed.
In the uplink, one CE equals two credits.
In the downlink, one CE equals one credit.
This feature reduces the credit resource usage of admitted UEs and increases the remaining credit
resources. This has the following advantages:

4 CAC Based on NodeB Credit Resources
4 CAC Based on NodeB Credit Resources

When receiving a service setup request, the RNC makes an admission decision based on credit
resources as follows:
For a radio resource control (RRC) connection setup request, the admission is successful if the
remaining credit resources at the local cell group (if any) and NodeB levels are sufficient for the RRC
connection setup.
For a handover service, the admission is successful if the remaining credit resources at the local cell
group (if any) and NodeB levels are sufficient for the handover service.
For other services, the RNC must check that the amount of the remaining credit resources at the local cell
group (if any) and NodeB levels is greater than or equal to UlHoCeResvSf after new services are admitted.
If so, the admission is successful.
CE Overbooking performs service admission and optimization based on the preceding decision
procedure. Activating CE Overbooking brings the following advantages:
The NodeB-reported credit resources consumed by admitted users decrease and therefore the
remaining credit resources on the RNC increase, indicating that the RNC can admit and serve more
users.
The NodeB baseband board uses different processing specifications for users with different uplink bearer
services, for example, HSUPA TTI 2 ms services, HSUPA TTI 10 ms services, and R99 services. CE
Overbooking enables the network to admit more users. Therefore, it is good practice to enable
RESERVED_SWITCH_1_BIT5 of RsvSwitch1. When multiple users access the network,
If RsvSwitch1:RESERVED_SWITCH_1_BIT5 is disabled, the system attempts to admit all new users

using the highest service bearers supported by the terminal. In this way, accessed users occupy too
many uplink processing specifications and therefore the total number of accessed users decreases.
If RsvSwitch1:RESERVED_SWITCH_1_BIT5 is enabled, the NodeB baseband board dynamically

selects proper uplink service bearers for users to maximize the number of accessed users according
to actual NodeB processing specifications.

Admission Control Feature Parameter Description.

7 Admission-CE-based Dynamic TTI Adjustment for a

Single BE Service over HSUPA
The TTI for an HSUPA UE processing BE services is switched from 2 ms to 10 ms when all the following
conditions are met:
The credit resources at the local cell group or NodeB level are smaller than those specified by
UlTtiCreditSfResThd, indicating that the credit resources are insufficient.
The UE throughput is lower than the product of UpRatioFor2msTo10msBaseCE and

BeHsupa2msTtiRateThs.
Increases the remaining uplink credit resources.
Reduces the probability of admission-CE-based dynamic TTI adjustment from 2 ms to 10 ms.
After CE Overbooking is activated, it is recommended that

DRA_BASE_ADM_CE_BE_TTI_RECFG_SWITCH under the DraSwitch parameter be set to ON. If
DRA_BASE_ADM_CE_BE_TTI_RECFG_SWITCH is set to ON, the TTI for an HSUPA UE can be
switched from 2 ms to 10 ms when CE resources are congested. If
DRA_BASE_ADM_CE_BE_TTI_RECFG_SWITCH is not set to ON, CE resources may be insufficient
to transmit one RLC PDU, which may result in Traffic Radio Bearer (TRB) reset and increase the call
drop rate.

8 Impact on the Network

8.1 Capacity and Performance
System Capacity
CE Overbooking reduces the uplink credit resources consumed by online users. In cells with a large
number of HSUPA UEs with a 2 ms TTI, this feature reduces the uplink credit resource consumption by
10% to 40%. A cell is regarded as having a large number of HSUPA UEs with a 2 ms TTI when the
average number of these UEs is greater than or equal to 5.
This feature impacts on system capacity in the following scenarios:
In scenarios where a large number of admission rejections occur due to severe congestion of uplink
credit resources, CE Overbooking enables more UEs to be admitted. CE Overbooking also increases
the average cell throughput if Uu and Iub resources are sufficient.
In scenarios where TTI switching or load reshuffling (LDR) frequently occurs due to basic congestion
of uplink credit resources, CE Overbooking reduces the number of TTI switching or LDR events or
increases the number of HSUPA UEs with a 2 ms TTI.
In scenarios where uplink credit resources are sufficient, CE Overbooking increases remaining credit
resources.
Network Performance
CE Overbooking has the following impact on network performance:
In scenarios where a large number of admission rejections occur due to severe congestion of uplink
credit resources, CE Overbooking allows more UEs to be admitted and increases the radio access
success rate. (This is because CE Overbooking takes the uplink traffic volume into consideration when
calculating the remaining credit resources, therefore increasing the availability of credit resources.)
However, when more UEs transmit data simultaneously, the HSUPA call drop rate may increase due to
congestion of CE and Uu resources.
In scenarios where TTI switching or LDR frequently occurs due to basic congestion of uplink credit
resources, the number of HSUPA UEs with a 2 ms TTI increases because CE Overbooking increases
the availability of credit resources. However, HSUPA UEs with a 2 ms TTI have poorer
anti-interference capabilities than HSUPA UEs with a 10 ms TTI. Therefore, the call drop rate may
increase in poor coverage because HSUPA UEs with a 2 ms TTI are more vulnerable to call drops
than HSUPA UEs with a 10 ms TTI.
NOTE
After CE Overbooking is enabled, the amount of credit resources consumed by admitted UEs is related to the actual UE
rate. If the amount of credit resources consumed by admitted UEs is large due to high actual UE rate, the handover
success rate and the RRC connection setup success rate may decrease because the reserved resources may be
consumed by admitted UEs. This problem has a low probability of occurrence and network performance is generally not
affected.
After CE Overbooking is enabled, there is a possibility that admission rejections increase over the Iub
interface if a large number of UEs has accessed the network. However, CE Overbooking does not
affect the UE access success rate.
Before CE Overbooking is enabled, the RNC updates the consumption of CE resources for UE
admission upon UE access or release.
After CE Overbooking is enabled, the NodeB updates the consumption of CE resources for UE
admission and reports to the RNC every 1s. During the report interval, the RNC cannot learn about the
accurate consumption of CE resources, resulting in information inconsistency between the RNC and
the NodeB. Therefore, there is a possibility that some UEs are admitted by the RNC but fail to be
admitted by the NodeB.

8-1
WCDMA RAN
CE Overbooking
8.2 Impact on Other Features

CE Overbooking depends on WRFD-010638 Dynamic CE Resource Management.
CE Overbooking allows an excessive number of UEs to be admitted and therefore cannot reserve
sufficient credit resources to guarantee GBR for the admitted UEs. The amount of reserved credit
resources is calculated as follows:
Amount of reserved credit resource = Max (Amount of credit resources required for ensuring the GBR,
Amount of credit resources required for transmitting one RLC PDU)
For example, when there are many 2 ms HSUPA UEs and multiple 2 ms HSUPA UEs transmit data at the
same time, call drops may occur. However, if TTI selection is applied with CE Overbooking, the TTI for
HSUPA UEs can be switched from 2 ms to 10 ms in this situation to reduce the call drop rate. Therefore,
it is recommended that CE Overbooking be used with Admission-CE-based Dynamic TTI Adjustment for
a Single BE Service over HSUPA.

9 Engineering Guidelines
9.1 When to Use CE Overbooking
To improve RNC's capability to perform admission control based on credit resource usage, CE
Overbooking should be enabled in a network that meets all the following conditions:
There are a large number of smart phones, especially HSUPA UEs with a 2 ms TTI.
Credit resources are insufficient.
The HSUPA throughput of cells under the NodeB is low.
The RAN has rejected the access request of a UE due to uplink credit resource congestion.
The average data rate of HSUPA UEs with a 2 ms TTI is less than or equal to 150 kbit/s.
9.2 Information to Be Collected

Before deploying CE Overbooking, collect the values of the following counters on the live network:
VS.HSUPA.UE.Mean.CATx (x 6): measures the number of HSUPA UEs that support the 2 ms TTI in
a cell. When there are a large number of HSUPA UEs with a 2 ms TTI in a cell, this feature provides
noticeable gains. A cell is regarded as having a large number of these UEs when the average number
of these UEs is greater than or equal to 5.
VS.LC.ULCreditUsed.Mean: measures the uplink credit resource usage in a cell. When the uplink
credit resource usage of a cell is high, more than 70% of the purchased credit resources are used. In
this case, uplink credit resource congestion will easily occur.
VS.LCC.LDR.Num.ULCE: measures the number of LDR events triggered by uplink credit resource
congestion in a cell. When the counter value is large, uplink credit resources are experiencing severe
congestion.
VS.HSUPA.TTI2to10.ADMCE.Succ: measures the number of TTI switching events triggered by uplink

credit resource congestion in a cell. When the counter value is large, uplink credit resources are
experiencing severe congestion.
VS.HSUPA.RABEstabTTI10ms.AdmCE.Succ: measures the number of successful RAB

establishments for TTI switching from 2 ms to 10 ms triggered by uplink credit resource congestion in
a cell. When the counter value is large, CE resources are experiencing severe congestion.
VS. RAB.FailEstabPS.ULCE.Cong and VS.RAB.FailEstabCS.ULCE.Cong: measure the number of

admission rejections triggered by uplink credit resource congestion in a cell. When the counter value is
large, CE resources are experiencing severe congestion.
9.3 Deployment

smaller than the sum of VS.LC.ULCreditUsed.Mean for all cells under this NodeB.
CE-based access success rate

After CE Overbooking is activated on a network with a low average HSUPA throughput, the CE-based
access success rate of the network increases.
Use the following formula to calculate the CE-based access success rate:
CE-based access success rate = 1 {(VS. RAB.FailEstabPS.ULCE.Cong + VS.
RAB.FailEstabCS.ULCE.Cong)/Total number of RAB establishment attempts in the cell}
The total number of RAB establishment attempts in the cell is the sum of the values of the counters in
Table 9-2.

corresponding to the uplink reserved credit is higher than

the uplink or downlink credit SF reserved threshold. The
lower the parameter value is, the easier the credit enters
the congestion status, the easier the LDR action is
triggered, and the easier the user experience is affected. A
lower code resource LDR trigger threshold, however,
causes a higher admission success rate because the
resource is reserved. The parameter should be set based
on the operator's requirement.

Meaning:The threshold of the reserved SF is used for

judging the uplink credit state for TTI switchover decision.
When uplink credit is lower than the threshold, the credit
state of TTI switchover algorithm is set to restricted. The
smaller the parameter value is, the easier the credit state
is set to restricted. The threshold of the reserved SF is
converted to credit by DCH consumption law.

Meaning:Ratio for upper MAC-e/i rate threshold of

CE-based TTI switchover from 2 ms to 10 ms. Upper
MAC-e/i rate threshold of TTI switchover from 2 ms to 10
ms = "BeHsupa2msTtiRateThs" * this parameter value.
"Upper MAC-e/i rate threshold of CE-based TTI
switchover from 2 ms to 10 ms" is applied to the scenarios
where the TTI switchover from 2 ms to 10 ms is triggered
by used CEs or admission CEs:
1. When the actual CE resources are limited and the
throughput of an HSUPA user with 2 ms TTI is within the
