HSDPA Code Resource Allocation




The codes of the HS-PDSCH physical channel can be


allocated in three ways:


Static HSDPA code allocation

RNC-controlled dynamic allocation

NodeB-controlled dynamic allocation

Copyright 2006 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. All rights reserved.

1.

Page7

The channelization codes are constant resources consisting of the following three
parts:

2.

1.

channelization codes for HS-PDSCH

2.

channelization codes for Common channels and HS-SCCH

3.

channelization codes for DPCH

The resources are reserved for the common channels and the HS-SCCH. The
parameter of the codes reserved for the HS-SCCH can be configured on the RNC LMT.

HSDPA Code Resource Allocation




RNC-controlled dynamic allocation




In the RNC-controlled dynamic allocation, the RNC adjusts the reserved HSPDSCH codes according to the real-time usage status of the codes

Configure the maximum and minimum numbers of codes available for HSPDSCH on the RNC LMT. The codes between the two parameters are called
shared codes

The RNC periodically monitors how the code resource is used and decides to
extend or reduce the codes reserved for the HS-PDSCH

HSDPA Code Resource Allocation




When allocating the code resource triggered by radio link setup or


radio link deletion, the RNC will extend the codes reserved for the HSPDSCH if the following cases are fulfilled:


If in cell's code tree there is at least one code can be reserved and this
code's SF is equal to or less than the Cell SF reserved threshold, NodeB
will try to increase HS-PDSCH code number

Among shared codes, the code which neighbors to the reserved codes for
the HS-PDSCH is idle, which can be attained by reshuffling the cell code
resource

HSDPA Code Resource Allocation




Reducing the Codes Reserved for HS-PDSCH




When allocating the code resources triggered by radio link setup, the RNC
will reallocate one of the shared codes reserved for HS-PDSCH to DPCH if
the minimum SF among free codes is larger than the Cell SF reserved
threshold.

The code number of the reallocated code should be the minimum.

HSDPA Code Resource Allocation




NodeB-controlled dynamic allocation




NodeB-controlled dynamic allocation allows the NodeB to use the HSPDSCH codes that are statically allocated by the RNC. Besides, the
NodeB can dynamically allocate the idle codes of the current cell to
the HS-PDSCH channel

The NodeB periodically detects the SF16 codes apart from the RNCallocated HS-PDSCH codes every 2 ms. If the codes or sub-codes are
allocated by the RNC to the DCH or common channels, they are
identified as occupied. Otherwise, they are identified as unoccupied.
Therefore, the HS-PDSCH codes available for the HS-PDSCH
channel include the codes allocated by the RNC and those
consecutive and unoccupied SF16 codes

HSDPA Code Resource Allocation




NodeB-controlled dynamic allocation




For example, if the RNC allocates five codes to the NodeB, that is,
No.11 to 15 SF16 codes are allocated to the HS-PDSCH. Suppose in
a 2 ms TTI, No. 0 to 5 SF16 codes are allocated to the DCH and
common channels. No. 0 to 5 SF16 codes are occupied. Therefore, in
the current TTI, the HS-PDSCH can use No. 6 to 15 SF16 codes

If the DCH codes allocated by the RNC are temporarily occupied by


the HS-PDSCH during the setup of radio links, the NBAP message
returned to the RNC indicates that the radio link is set up successfully.
From the next 2 ms TTI, the HS-PDSCH no longer uses these codes
until they are released from the DCH

The cell total HSDPA power is limited by the parameters power margin and
HSDPA power.

2.

But in the initial deployment if only a few HSDPA users is active in one cell, high cell
load (interference) is not expected in some scenarios. HSDPA power limitation per
user can limit the HSDPA cell load when only a few HSDPA user (e.g 1~2) is active.
When HSDPA active user number increases, HSDPA power is the limitation.

3.

HSDPA power limitation per user is to limit the max HSDPA power per user per TTI,
the HSDPA power include HS-DSCH power and HS-SCCH power, and it will decrease
the HSDPA user throughput and cell throughput if the parameter is not configured
properly

The transmitting power of HS-DPCCH is:

Where,
HS-DPCCH , as for the first slot of one TTI, means ACK when UE replies ACK,
NACK when UE replies NACK., as for the second and third slots of one TTI, means
CQI.
Pul-DPCCH is the transmitting power of associated UL DPCCH.

HSDPA Power Control




HS-DPCCH Power Control




In soft handover area, the UL combining gain reduces the


necessary transmission power of UL DPCCH. While HSDPCCH does not has the UL combining gain, to maintain the
receiving quality of the HS-DPCCH, higher power offset is
needed. Thus, when UE enters or leaves the soft handover
area, the power offset for ACK/NACK and CQI may have a
change correspondingly.

HSDPA connection


One HSDPA user has up to one HSDPA connection with network at the same time

HSDPA connection HO means HO caused by moving

DPCH connection


DPCH connection has same function as R99 HO, Containing SHO, HHO and interRAT HO

Both HSDPA connection and DPCH connection HO are based on UE


measurement report and other information, and they are controlled by UTRAN
side

The HSDPA mobility management includes all the mobility scenarios that
HSDPA serving cell is involved, including the following three types of scenario:

assign it to the HS-PDSCH of the HSDPA cell by direct retry.

The access to the HSDPA cell is rejected when the service is set up.
Suppose two HSDPA cells cover the same physical area. If the UE
initiates a data service request from one of the HSDPA cell but fails to be
accessed to the cell, the system reassigns the service to the HS-DSCH of
the other HSDPA that covers the same physical area through direct retry.

from the FACH to the HS-DSCH is triggered by the increase of the traffic
volume. Suppose two HSDPA cells cover the same physical area. The
traffic volume of the UE that is in the R5 cell and is in FACH state
increases, the system attempts to reassign the service to the HS-DSCH of
the HSDPA cell. If the access to the HSDPA cell fails, the system
reassigns the service to the HS-PDSCH of the other HSDPA cell that

the transport channel from HS-DSCH to FACH to reduce
occupation of the DPCH when the following conditions are met.


The HS-DSCH carries the BE service or the PS streaming service


for the UE.

HSDPA Scheduling Algorithm




PF (Proportional Fair )
For the user selection in PF scheduling algorithm, CQI, the filtered

scheduling rate of UE are taken into account. The scheduling priority


is calculated with the following formula :

Pr iority i =

Ri _ max (t )
ri (t )

Ri _ max (t ) is the instant rate of UE i which can be reached according


to the CQI_i at the scheduling timeRt.i _ max (t )
Is equal to TBS_i /

TTIr

(t )
is the user's scheduling rate during previous period

HSDPA Scheduling Algorithm




EPF ( Enhanced Proportional Fair )




Based on the PF algorithm, the EPF algorithm can ensure the


users Guaranteed Bit Rate (GBR) requirement when the cell is
not in congestion, which is useful to guarantee the users QoS
and fairness.

HSDPA Scheduling Algorithm




EPF ( Enhanced Proportional Fair )




In the X time segment, only the users configured with GBR are
scheduled according to the PF algorithm.

In the Y time segment, only the users configured with GBR but
not achieved are scheduled according to their Scheduling
Priority Indicator (SPI). Only when the data rate of users with
higher SPI reaches their GBR, the users with lower SPI can be
scheduled. Those users with the same SPI will be scheduled
according to those CQI, the higher the CQI is, the higher the
priority is.

In the Z time segment, all users are scheduled according to the


PF algorithm.
