Feature Activation Guide About This Document

This chapter describes the changes in the RAN Feature Activation Guide.
2 Feature Activation and License Item Descriptions
RANFeatures are classified into basic and optional features. Basic features are not license-
controlled and therefore do not require license activation before use. Some optional features are
license-controlled and therefore require license activation before use. If the Configuration
Method column for a basic feature in the RAN basic feature list is None, enabling this feature
does not involve any configurations. If the Configuration Method column for an optional feature
in the RAN optional feature list is None, this feature is enabled once it is activated.
3 Overview of Configurations on the CME
This section provides an overview of the configuration on the CME. The CME is a configuration
tool on GUIs assisting you to effectively configure the data about wireless NE features. You can
reconfigure configuration parameters by using the configuration expresses provided by the CME
to activate or deactivate specified features.
4 Activating the UMTS License
In the case of certain UMTS features, a license control item is defined for each feature. The
license control item of a feature must be activated before the configuration and use of the feature.
The license control items related to the RNC can be activated on the M2000 or RNC LMT,
whereas those related to the NodeB can be activated only on the M2000.

Descriptions

RANFeatures are classified into basic and optional features. Basic features are not license-
controlled and therefore do not require license activation before use. Some optional features are
license-controlled and therefore require license activation before use. If the Configuration
Method column for a basic feature in the RAN basic feature list is None, enabling this feature
does not involve any configurations. If the Configuration Method column for an optional feature
in the RAN optional feature list is None, this feature is enabled once it is activated.

Table 2-1 lists the RAN basic features. Table 2-2 lists the RAN optional features.

3.1 Introduction to Configuration Methods


This section describes how to configure the features of one or multiple NEs at a time by using
the CME.

Introduction to Configuration Methods


The CME enables you to configure NE features in both single and batch modes. For details, see
Table 3-1.

Table 3-1 Introduction to configuration methods

Config Characteristics
uratio
n
Metho
d

Single Configures parameters for only one object (for example, a base station or a cell)
configu each time.
ration The CME provides configuration expresses and device panels for various types of
data to configure one object.
l The CME displays a navigation tree in the left pane and a table in the right pane.
The navigation tree shows managed objects (MOs) while the table shows the
parameters of the MOs and parameter values. After selecting an MO in the
navigation tree, you can configure its values in the table.
l The device panel is displayed on a GUI, allowing you to directly configure data
for devices such as cabinet, subrack, and board.

Batch Applies the configuration data about an object (for example, a base station or a
modific cell) to other objects.
ation NOTE
center This method is applicable to scenarios where the parameters for multiple objects need to be
configured the same.
For example, after setting the VAMOSSWITCH parameter for cell 1 to ON, you
can use the batch modification function to set the VAMOSSWITCH parameters
for other specified cells to ON at a time. By doing this, you do not need to configure
the parameters for these cells one by one.

Introduction to Data Configuration Procedures


Before using the CME to configure features, you need to be familiar with basic operations on
the CME. For details, see CME Guidelines in the M2000 Help.
The procedures for using the CME to activate or deactivate features are as follows:
1. Synchronize the data in the current data area with the data on the live network.
2. Create a planned data area and copy the data in the current data area to the planned data
area for configuration.

3. Modify the parameters according to the planned data.


4. After configuring data, export the data as scripts.
5. Deliver the exported scripts to the live network for the configuration data to take effect on
NEs.

3.2 Configuring Device Data


This section describes how to configure device data on the device panel.

Feature Activation Guide 6 Configuring Conversational QoS Class

6 Configuring Conversational QoS Class

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the basic feature WRFD-010501
Conversational QoS Class.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
This feature does not have any special requirements for hardware.
l Dependencies on Other Features
This feature does not depend on other features.
l License
This feature is not under license control.
l Others
The UE and the CN support the conversational class.

Context
Based on QoS requirements, 3GPP defines four traffic classes: conversational, streaming,
interactive, and background.
They differ in their sensitivity to delay. The conversational class is highly sensitive to the delay
and therefore has a high requirement on real-time transmission. The conversational class has the
following fundamental characteristics:
l Preservation of the time relationships between information entities in a stream and
limitation of the transmission delay and delay jitter within an acceptable range.
l Conversational pattern (stringent requirement on the delay).
Conversational services are applicable in both the CS and PS domains. Most typical applications
of the conversational class are voice services and videophone services in the CS domain and
VoIP services in the PS domain.
Huawei RAN supports the following basic types of conversational services:
l CS AMR speech services at the rates of 12.2 kbit/s, 10.2 kbit/s, 7.95 kbit/s, 7.4 kbit/s, 6.7
kbit/s, 5.9 kbit/s, 5.15 kbit/s, and 4.75 kbit/s
l CS transparent data services (conversational class) at the rates of 64 kbit/s, 56 kbit/s, 32
kbit/s, and 28.8 kbit/s

l PS bidirectional symmetric voice services at the rates of 64 kbit/s, 42.8 kbit/s, 32 kbit/s, 16
kbit/s, and 8 kbit/s

Procedure
l Activation Procedure
1. Run the BSC6900 MML command SET UFRCCHLTYPEPARA (CME single
configuration: UMTS Radio Global Configuration Express > Basic Resource
Control Parameter Configuration > Channel Type Parameters; CME batch
modification center: 3.15 Modifying RNC Parameters in Batches). In this step, set
CS voice channel type and VOIP channel type to DCH(UL_DCH,DL_DCH).
l Verification Procedure
1. Initiate Iub interface tracing on the BSC6900 LMT, as shown in Figure 6-1.

Figure 6-1 Iub interface trace dialog box

2. Establish a conversational service on the UE. Check the DPC (that is, the source) of
the RANAP_RAB_ASSIGNMENT_REQ message among the traced Iu data to
determine whether the service is a CS service or PS service.
3. View the trafficClass IE in the rRB-Parameters IE of the
RANAP_RAB_ASSIGNMENT_REQ message to verify that the traffic class is
conversational.
4. View the maxBitrate and rAB-AsymmetryIndicator IEs in the
RANAP_RAB_ASSIGNMENT_REQ message.
If the value of the rAB-AsymmetryIndicator IE is Asymmetric bidirectional,
then the maxBitrate IE contains two values. The first value indicates the downlink
rate of the conversational service, and the second indicates the uplink rate of the
service. That is, the uplink and downlink transmission uses asymmetric rates.
If the value of the rAB-AsymmetryIndicator IE is Symmetric bidirectional,
then the maxBitrate IE contains one value, which indicates the rate applicable in
both the uplink and the downlink. That is, the uplink and downlink transmission
uses symmetric rates.
If the value of the rAB-AsymmetryIndicator IE is Asymmetric Uni directional
downlink, then the maxBitrate IE contains one value, which indicates the
downlink rate of the conversational service. In this case, the uplink rate of the
service is 0.
If the value of the rAB-AsymmetryIndicator IE is Asymmetric Uni directional
Uplink, then the maxBitrate IE contains one value, which indicates the uplink

7 Configuring Streaming QoS Class

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the basic feature WRFD-010502
Streaming QoS Class.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
This feature does not have any special requirements for hardware.
l Dependencies on Other Features
This feature does not depend on other features.
l License
This feature is not under license control.
l Others
The UE and CN support streaming services.

Context
Based on QoS requirements, there are four traffic classes: conversational, streaming, interactive,
and background.

QoS indicates the sensitivity of services to the delay. The streaming class is a relatively recent
development in data communications, which raises a number of new requirements in both
telecommunication and data communication systems. The transmission of streaming services
must follow the time sequence of information entities . The streaming class has the following
features:
l The time sequence of information entities in a stream is not changed.
l Streaming services are applicable in both the CS and PS domains. The most typical
applications of the streaming class are fax services in the CS domain and streaming video
services in the PS domain.

Streaming services are real-time services, such as audio and video programs. They are
transmitted in only one direction and serve individual users.

the services are set up on R99 services. In this case, you can disable the HSDPA and HSUPA
capabilities of the cell to enable the streaming services to be set up on R99 channels.
2. Optional: Run the BSC6900 MML command DEA UCELLHSDPA (CME single
configuration: UMTS Cell Configuration Express > Cell Parameters > Cell
HSDPA Parameters. Set ACTSTATUS to Deactivated; CME batch modification
center: No supported) to disable the HSDPA capability of the cell.
3. Optional: Run the BSC6900 MML command DEA UCELLHSUPA (CME single
configuration: UMTS Cell Configuration Express > Cell Parameters >
Configuration of HSUPA in Cell. Set Cell HSUPA state to Deactivated; CME batch
modification center: No supported) to disable the HSUPA capability of the cell.
l Verification Procedure
1. Start Iu interface tracing on the BSC6900 LMT, as shown in Figure 7-1

Figure 7-1 Iu Interface Trace dialog box

2. Use a UE to set up a streaming service. Check the DPC (that is, the source) of the
RANAP_RAB_ASSIGNMENT_REQ message among the traced Iu data to
determine whether the service is a CS service or PS service.
3. Check the RANAP_RAB_ASSIGNMENT_REQ message and check that the value
of the trafficClass information element (IE) in rRB-Parameters is streaming.
4. View the maxBitrate and rAB-AsymmetryIndicator IEs in the
RANAP_RAB_ASSIGNMENT_REQ message.
Expected result:
If the value of the rAB-AsymmetryIndicator IE is Asymmetric bidirectional,
the maxBitrate IE contains two values. The first value indicates the downlink rate
of the streaming service, and the second indicates the uplink rate of the service.

If the value of the rAB-AsymmetryIndicator IE is Symmetric bidirectional, the


maxBitrate IE contains one value, which indicates the rate in both the uplink and
the downlink. That is, the uplink and downlink transmission use the same rate.
If the value of the rAB-AsymmetryIndicator IE is Asymmetric Uni directional
downlink, the maxBitrate IE contains one value, which indicates the downlink
rate of the streaming service. In this case, the uplink rate of the service is 0.
If the value of the rAB-AsymmetryIndicator IE is Asymmetric Uni directional

8 Configuring Interactive QoS Class

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the basic feature WRFD-010503
Interactive QoS Class.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
This feature does not have any special requirements for hardware.
l Dependencies on Other Features
This feature does not depend on other features.
l License
This feature is not under license control.
l Others
The UE and CN support interactive services.

Context
Based on QoS requirements, there are four traffic classes: conversational, streaming, interactive,
and background. QoS indicates the sensitivity of services to the delay.
The interactive class is a typical data communication solution. It is characterized by the request/
response pattern of end users. For example, a person or an entity at the destination sends a data
request to a remote server and expects a response message within a specific time. In this situation,
the Round Trip Time (RTT) is one of the key attributes of the interactive class. Another
characteristic is that the packets should be transparently transferred at a low Bit Error Rate
(BER). In summary, the interactive class has the following fundamental characteristics: request/
response pattern and preservation of the payload.
Interactive services are applicable in the PS domain and not applicable in the CS domain. The
most typical application of the interactive class is web browsing.
Huawei RAN supports the following types of interactive services: PS bidirectional symmetric
or asymmetric interactive services at the rates of 384 kbit/s, 285 kbit/s, 144 kbit/s, 128 kbit/s,
64 kbit/s, 32 kbit/s, 16 kbit/s, and 8 kbit/s.

l Dependencies on Hardware
This feature does not have any special requirements for hardware.
l Dependencies on Other Features

l License
This feature is not under license control.
l Others
The UE and CN support this feature.

Context
Based on QoS requirements, there are four traffic classes: conversational, streaming, interactive,
and background.

QoS indicates the sensitivity of services to the delay. A typical type of background service is
data services. One of the characteristics of the background class is that the destination does not
expect data within a specific time, and therefore the background class is delay-insensitive.
Another characteristic is that the packets should be transparently transferred at a low Bit Error
Rate (BER).

In summary, the background class has the following fundamental characteristics: destination not
expecting data within a specific time and preservation of the payload.

Background services are applicable in the PS domain and not applicable in the CS domain. The
most typical applications of the background class are download and emails.

Huawei RAN supports the following types of background services: PS bidirectional symmetric
or asymmetric background services at the rates of 384 kbit/s, 256 kbit/s, 144 kbit/s, 128 kbit/s,
64 kbit/s, 32 kbit/s, 16 kbit/s, and 8 kbit/s.

If distributed sectors are configured, one CPRI port supports a maximum of four
cascaded RRUs, a maximum of four RRUs share one cell, and a maximum of three
distributed cells are supported.
One BBU supports combination of uplink digital signals on only one CPRI port. A
maximum of four RRUs share one cell.
In consideration of delay requirements, the remote distance of fiber optic cables for the
RRUs in a cell and with the same coverage should be smaller than four kilometers.

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the basic feature WRFD-010202
UE State in Connected Mode (CELL_DCH, CELL_PCH, URA_PCH, CELL_FACH).

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
This feature does not have any special requirements for hardware.
l Dependencies on Other Features
This feature does not depend on other features.
l License
This feature is not under license control.
l Other Prerequisites
The Iu-PS activity factor is already modified.
The Iu-PS activity factor can be modified by running the ADD TRMFACTOR (CME
single configuration: UMTS Global Configuration Express > Transmission
Resources Configuration > Factor Table; CME batch modification center: not

Express > IP Transport > Adjacent Node Mapping; CME batch modification center:
not supported) commands. The recommended value of the Iu-PS activity factor is 10%.
NOTE

If there are excessive users in the CELL_PCH or URA_PCH state, a large amount of bandwidth
on the Iu-PS interface is consumed though such users do not have data to transmit.
Adjusting the Iu-PS activity factor can prevent PS service admission failures due to the increase
in the number of UEs in the CELL_PCH or URA_PCH state.
The Fast Dormancy procedure of the UE must comply with 3GPP TS 25.331 CR3483.
UEs must support associated states.

Open Loop Power Control.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
This feature does not have any special requirements for hardware.
l Dependencies on Other Features
This feature does not depend on other features.
l License
This feature is not under license control.

Context
This feature enables BSC6900 to roughly estimate path loss based on power measurement
results, network parameter settings, and QoS requirements. Based on the estimation results,
BSC6900 sets the initial transmit power for a UE and a NodeB before connection is established
between them.

Procedure
l Activation Procedure

Activate open loop power control on the downlink DPCH.

1. This feature does not need to be activated on the downlink DPCH.

Activate open loop power control on the uplink DPCH.

1. Run the BSC6900 MML command SET UFRC (CME single configuration: UMTS
Radio Global Configuration Express > Basic Resource Control Parameter
Configuration > RNC Oriented FRC Algorithm Parameters; CME batch
modification center: 3.15 Modifying RNC Parameters in Batches). In this step, set
the parameters related to uplink DPCH power control.

RAN14.0
Feature Activation Guide 20 Configuring Open Loop Power Control

NOTE

l The BSC6900 uses the Default Constant Value parameter to calculate the power offset
on the uplink DPCCH (DPCCH_Power_offset). Based on the calculation result, the UE
calculates the initial transmit power on the uplink DPCCH (DPCCH_Initial_Power).
l The formula for calculating DPCCH_Power_offset is: DPCCH_Power_offset = Primary
CPICH DL TX power + UL interference + Default Constant Value. Where,
DPCCH_Power_offset indicates the initial transmit power offset on the DPCCH, Primary
CPICH DL TX power indicates the downlink transmit power on the P-CPICH, UL
interference indicates the uplink interference, and Default Constant Value is the value of
Default Constant Value.
l The formula for calculating DPCCH_Initial_Power is: DPCCH_Initial_Power =
DPCCH_Power_offset - CPICH_RSCP. Where, CPICH_RSCP indicates the received
signal code power (RSCP) that the UE measures on the P-CPICH. An excessively small
value of DPCCH_Power_offset may lead to uplink synchronization failures at the cell edge
during initial link establishment, which affects uplink coverage. An excessively great value
of DPCCH_Power_offset may lead to instantaneous interference on uplink signal
reception, which affects the uplink receiving performance. For details, see 3GPP TS 25.331.

Activate open loop power control on the uplink PRACH.


1. Run the BSC6900 MML command MOD UPRACHUUPARAS (CME single
configuration: UMTS Cell Configuration Express > Channel Configuration >
PRACH Basic Information; CME batch modification center: not supported). In this
step, set the parameters related to the PARCH to appropriate values.
l Verification Procedure
Verify open loop power control on the downlink DPCH
1. Use UE 2 to establish a conversation with UE 1.
2. The message NBAP_RL_SETUP_REQ on the Iub interface shows the value of the
IE initialDL-transmissionPower. This value is used for the downlink DPCH open
loop power control.
Verify open loop power control on the uplink DPCH
1. Check the IE dpcch-PowerOffset, whose value is the same as that of DPCCH Power
Offset, under the IE ul-DPCH-PowerControlIonfo contained in the RRC message
Radio Bearer Setup, as shown in Figure 20-1. Based on the dpcch-PowerOffset
value, the UE can further calculate the initial transmit power on the uplink DPCCH
(DPCCH_Initial_Power) and perform uplink open loop power control.

Figure 20-1 ul-DPCH-PowerControlIonfo IE

Verify open loop power control on the uplink PRACH


1. Check whether the IE constantValue whose value is -20 is contained in the
RRC_SYS_INFO_TYPE5 message by referring to Tracing Messages on the Uu
Interface. If the message contains this IE, parameters configured for the UE take effect.
After obtaining values of these parameters, the UE calculates the initial transmit power
and performs open look power control on the uplink PARCH.

22 Configuring Outer Loop Power Control

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the basic feature WRFD-020503
Outer Loop Power Control.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
This feature does not have any special requirements for hardware.
l Dependencies on Other Features
This feature does not depend on other features.
l License
This feature is not under license control.

Context
Outer loop power control guarantees the service quality by adjusting the target SIR of inner loop
power control. Outer loop power control is performed on the DCHs carrying the same RRC
connection. When the moving speed of a UE or the multi-path environment changes, the target
SIR needs to be adjusted to ensure a desirable service quality. Otherwise, the service quality
may be bad or will accordingly lead to severe interference and power waste.

The legacy OLPC algorithm enables the target SIR to quickly increase but slowly decrease,
therefore leading to a waste of uplink power. The optimized OLPC algorithm rapidly adjusts the
target SIR in any of the following scenarios: service setup, service reconfiguration, burst
interference, and status switching between insufficient UE transmit power and sufficient UE
transmit power. By doing so, the average uplink target SIR is reduced and the uplink power
consumption is decreased.

Context
This feature enables softer handover within a NodeB. Intra-NodeB softer handover is one type
of soft handover. To perform softer handover, multiple RLs need to be established. In this way,
the uplink resources of a cell in the same uplink resource group can be fully shared. In contrast
to soft handover, softer handover does not consume additional transmission resources on the Iub
interface. Therefore, softer handover can provide higher combination gain and require less
transmission resources on the Iub interface.
Softer handover may occur within the same uplink resource group.

Intra RNC Soft Handover.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
This feature does not have any special requirements for hardware.
l Dependencies on Other Features

l License
This feature is not under license control.

Context
Intra-RNC soft handover is one type of soft handover. To implement intra-RNC soft handover,
multiple RLs need to be established between NodeBs or within a NodeB. Intra-NodeB softer
handover and intra-RNC soft handover differ in the place where macro diversity combining is
performed. For intra-RNC soft handover, macro diversity combining, which is in selective mode,
is performed within the RNC. In such a case, each RL on the Iub interface carries transmission
data independently. Compared with intra-NodeB softer handover, the intra-RNC soft handover
can be applied to more scenarios.

Inter RNC Soft Handover.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
This feature does not have any special requirements for hardware.
l Dependencies on Other Features
This feature does not depend on other features.
l License
This feature is not under license control.
l Other Prerequisites
The Iur interface is configured between adjacent RNCs.

Context
Inter-RNC soft handover is one type of soft handover. To implement inter-RNC soft handover,
multiple RLs need to be established between different RNCs. In such a case, macro diversity
combining is performed by the SRNC connected through the Iur interface. The SRNC sends the
DRNC the radio link establishment signaling over the Iur interface. Based on the signaling, the
DRNC establishes a radio link in the new NodeB. Other procedures are similar to those of intra-
RNC soft handover. This feature enables telecom operators to provide seamless connection
services to subscribers. Inter-RNC soft handover has wider application scenario than soft
handover in other forms, as it can be applied to the RNCs connected through the Iur interface.

Procedure
l Activation Procedure
1. Run the BSC6900 MML command SET UCORRMALGOSWITCH (CME single
configuration: UMTS Radio Global Configuration Express >
Connection_Oriented RRM Switch Configuration > Connection Oriented
Algorithm Switches; CME batch modification center: 3.15 Modifying RNC

51 Configuring BOOTP

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the basic feature WRFD-031100
BOOTP. In ATM transport mode, the NodeB can automatically set up the OM channel with the
BSC6900 by using the BOOTSTRAP Protocol (BOOTP) function.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
The transmission equipment is in the connected state.
BOOTP applies only to ATM networking scenarios.
l Dependencies on Other Features
This feature does not depend on other features.
l License
This feature is not under license control.

Context
This feature enables NodeB to set up the OM channel to the RNC automatically without
configuration data. The maintenance staff can download the data and software to the NodeB
through the OM channel at the far end. The feature decreases the operation and maintenance
costs and enhances the network maintainability and maintenance quality. NodeB will
automatically set up the OM channel using the BOOTP protocol. In addition, NodeB monitors
the OM channel. When the OM channel is broken, NodeB can rebuild it.

Procedure
l Activation Procedure
1. Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD DEVIP (CME single configuration: NodeB
Configuration Express > IUB_RNC > ATM Transport > Device IP Address;

52 Configuring NodeB Self-Discovery


Based on IP Mode

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the basic feature WRFD-031101
NodeB Self-Discovery Based on IP Mode.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
The transmission equipment is in the connected state.
DHCP applies only to IP networks.
Only 3900 series base stations support DHCP+AACP.
l Dependencies on Other Features
This feature does not depend on other features.
l License
This feature is not under license control.
l Others
If NodeB self-discovery uses the DHCP+AACP scheme
VLANs are used to separate NodeBs to be deployed from other network devices not
required.
VLAN detection and IP path detection must be disabled on the M2000 to prevent
interference during AACP detection.
the deployment list of NodeBs to be commissioned must be ready. For details, see
the NodeB Commissioning Guide.
A bidirectional forwarding detection (BFD) session failure results in a NodeB
automatic deployment failure. Therefore, the BFD function must be disabled on the
gateway side if it is enabled on the NodeB side.
The IP path ping function must be disabled on the RNC side during NodeB automatic
deployment. Otherwise, when the ping message sent by the RNC reaches the
gateway, the gateway sends an ARP request to the NodeB, disturbing the AACP
detection process and resulting in a NodeB automatic deployment failure.
AACP and DHCP messages can be processed through port 67 or 68. Ports 67 and 68
must be enabled for the firewall in the radio network.

82 Configuring MBMS Admission


Enhancement

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the optional feature
WRFD-01066003 MBMS Admission Enhancement.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
This feature does not depend on the hardware.
l Dependencies on Other Features
The feature WRFD-010616 MBMS Introduction Package must be configured before
this feature is activated.
l License
The license controlling this feature has been activated. For details on how to activate
the license, see 4 Activating the UMTS License. For details about license items, see
2 Feature Activation and License Item Descriptions.

Context
This feature provides different admission policies for Multimedia Broadcast and Multicast
Service point-to-multipoint (MBMS PTM) services and MBMS point-to-point (MBMS PTP)
services. MBMS PTP services use the same admission, preemption, and congestion criteria with
normal services except MBMS HSDPA services. MBMS PTM services should be treated
differently so that they do not occupy excessive resources to block non-MBMS connection
admission. In addition, some resources should be reserved for MBMS PTM services.

Procedure
l Activation Procedure
1. Run the BSC6900 MML command SET UQUEUEPREEMPT (CME single
configuration: UMTS Radio Global Configuration Express > Queue Preempt
Parameters Configuration > RNC Oriented Queue Preempt Algorithm
Parameters; CME batch modification center: 3.15 Modifying RNC Parameters in
Batches) to set Mbms PreemptAlgoSwitch and Preempt algorithm switch to

configuration: UMTS Radio Global Configuration Express > MBMS
Configuration > MBMS Parameter in RNC Level; CME batch modification center:
3.15 Modifying RNC Parameters in Batches) to set the preemption parameters for
PTM services. The actual preemption capabilities are determined by both the settings
of these parameters and the parameter settings sent by the CN. The parameter settings
of PTP services are sent by the CN and do not need to be set manually.
l Verification Procedure
1. Run the BSC6900 MML command LST URNCMBMSPARA to check the
configuration.
2. Enable a low-priority user to access the cell.
3. Enable the admission algorithm, and then limit cell resources so that the admission
resources in the cell are insufficient. In this case, the MBMS services successfully
preempt common services. An example is given as follows:
a. Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD URESERVEOVSF to reserve the
downlink OVSF for the cell so that only 64 kbit/s services are supported in the
cell.
b. Originate a 256 kbit/s service. Check the messages traced on the Iu interface on
the RNC side, which are the MBMS SESSION START message from the CN
to the RNC and the MBMS SESSION START RSPPONSE message from the
RNC to the CN.
4. Run the BSC6900 MML command DSP UCELLMBMSSERVICE. If the parameter
Current State of Service Session is Setuping, the user connection is released due to
preemption.

This feature does not depend on other features.
l License
The license controlling this feature has been activated. For details on how to activate
the license, see 4 Activating the UMTS License. For details about license items, see
2 Feature Activation and License Item Descriptions.
l Others Prerequisites
UE is needed to report the relevant measurement results.
CN is needed to trigger the location request.
The UE supports at least one of the following locating methods:

UE-assisted CELLID+RTT locating in the SAS-CENTRIC mode

Context
The simplest CELLID + Round Trip Time (RTT) locating method is to directly use the
geographical center of the coverage area of the reference cell as the locating result.

To achieve high locating accuracy, the BSC6900 demands RTT measurement in all cells in the
active set and requests the UE to perform locating measurement on the corresponding cells. By
means of the two types of measurement, the BSC6900 calculates the time of arrival (TOA) of
signal from the cell antenna to the UE. By multiplying the TOA by the velocity of light, the
BSC6900 obtains the distance between a certain cell and the UE. If three TOA circles intersect,
the BSC6900 can obtain the accurate location of the UE.

BSC6900 initiates and traces the SFN-SFN observed time difference measurement. BSC6900
calculates the relative time difference (RTD) of the cell related to positioning based on the latest
measurement reports (MRs).

After BSC6900 receives a LOCATON REPORT CONTROL message, it requests the UE to


perform SFN-SFN observed time difference measurement if the IPDL-OTDOA positioning
method is used. After receiving the corresponding MRs, BSC6900 calculates the location of the
UE. For accurate location calculation, BSC6900 may request the NodeB to perform RTT
measurement and request the UE to perform Rx-Tx time difference measurement.

NOTE

l In dynamic CE scenarios, the service rate assigned by the core network (CN) is 2048 kbit/s, and the
BSC6900 configures the Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) power offset (PO) based on the
realtime service rate. In the scenarios where DCCC takes effect, the actual service rate is variable, and
the BSC6900 configures the HARQ PO based on the realtime service rate.
l The HARQ PO is one of the variable that determines the power offset on the E-DPDCH compared
with the DPCCH.
1. Run the BSC6900 MML command LST UTYPRABHSUPAPC to check the
parameters related to power offset for typical services. Figure 114-1 shows an
interactive BE service with the CN-assigned rate of 2048 kbit/s, whose Service
parameter index is set to 55, Traffic Subflow Index to 0, Transport channel
type to TRCH_EDCH_10MS, and the Ul 16QAM Used Indication, Ul enhanced
L2 Used Indication, EdPower Interpolation Priority Used Indication, and UL E-
DPCCH Boosting Indication parameters all set to FALSE. As shown in Figure
114-1, HARQ PO for Large Retransmission is set to 0, HARQ PO for small
Retrans at Low Speed is set to 4, and HARQ PO for small Retrans at High
Speed is set to 0.

Figure 114-1 PO parameters of typical services

2. Establish a PS interactive BE service over HSUPA, for example, upload files to the
FTP server.

NOTE

l In multi-user scenarios where the target load is limited and the realtime service rate of a single
user is lower than a low-rate threshold (such as 150 kbit/s), the user is in the small retransmission
state at a low speed. The HARQ PO is the value of HARQ PO for small Retrans at Low
Speed.
l If the realtime service rate of a single user is higher than a high-rate threshold (such as 300 kbit/
s), the user is in the small retransmission state at a high speed. The HARQ PO is the value of
HARQ PO for small Retrans at High Speed.
3. Check the realtime rate of the new BE service and the CN-assigned rate by referring
to Monitoring UL Throughput and Bandwidth, as shown in Figure 114-2.

Figure 114-2 Rate of the new BE service

4. Verification Procedure in the Scenario Where DCCC Takes Effect


a. Check the uplink throughput and bandwidth by referring to Monitoring UL
Throughput and Bandwidth. The data rate of the HSUPA service when
accessing the network is 256 kbit/s. Trace messages over the Uu interface by
referring to Tracing Messages on the Uu Interface. The value of the HARQ
PO in the RRC_RB_SETUP message shows that the user is in the small
retransmission state at a high speed. The HARQ PO is equal to the value of
HARQ PO for small Retrans at High Speed, as shown in Figure 114-3.

b. Simulate a situation that the uplink load is limited by changing the target uplink
load to 10%. Run the BSC6900 MML command MOD UCELLHSUPA. In this
step, set Maximum Target Uplink Load Factor to 10. After the uplink load is
limited, check the uplink throughput and bandwidth by referring to Monitoring
UL Throughput and Bandwidth. HARQ PO reconfiguration is triggered when
the uplink throughput of the UE is lower than the low-rate threshold. Check the
value of HARQ PO in the RRC_RB_RECFG message by referring to Tracing
Messages on the Uu Interface. The HARQ PO changes from HARQ PO for
small Retrans at High Speed to HARQ PO for small Retrans at Low
Speed, as shown in Figure 114-6.

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the optional feature WRFD-010691
HSUPA UL Interference Cancellation.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
Dependencies on BSC6900 Hardware
This feature does not have any special requirements for hardware.
Dependencies on NodeB Hardware
The BTS3812E or BTS3812AE must be configured with the EULPd board, the
downlink service cannot be estabilished on HBBI/HDLP/NDLP, and the IC effect
cannot be shared between BB boards.
The DBS3800 must be configured with the EBBCd board and the IC effect can be

Context

CAUTION
Activate this feature when the traffic volume in a cell is low. The reason is that the cell must be
deactivated before this feature is activated; after the cell is deactivated, the services in this cell
are disrupted.

Interference Cancellation (IC) is performed to cancel the interference caused by the uplink high
rate E-DPDCH data of other users, improving the demodulation signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and
increasing the uplink capacity of the UMTS network.

NOTE

l For 3900 series base stations, the WBBPd/WBBPf must be configured on slot 2 or slot 3 on the
BBU3900 to support the uplink data IC integrated interference cancellation function. The uplink
resource group must contain the WBBPd/WBBPf. Therefore, cell of the group can support the IC
feature. For details, see Adding a Baseband Board to a 3900 Series Base Station.
l If the DBS3800 is configured with two EBBCd boards, it is recommended that two uplink resource
groups be allocated to the two boards separately. In this way, both the boards support HSUPA uplink
interference cancellation. For details about how to configure the active and standby BTSs, see Adding
an EBBC or EBBCd.
l If the BTS3812E or BTS3812AE is configured with two EULPd boards, it is recommended that two
uplink resource groups be allocated to the two boards separately. In this way, both the boards support
HSUPA uplink interference cancellation. For details about how to configure the active and standby
BTSs, see Adding a Baseband Board to the BTS3812E or BTS3812AE.

120 Configuring Control Channel


Parallel Interference Cancellation (Phase 2)

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the optional feature WRFD-140202
Control Channel Parallel Interference Cancellation (Phase 2). Control Channel Parallel
Interference Cancellation is short for CCPIC.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
The 3900 series base station (except for BTS3902E) must be configured with the
WBBPd or WBBPf board.
To support inter-board IC, the WBBPd or WBBPf board must be configured for the
uplink resource group that supports inter-board IC. In addition, at least one WBBPd or
WBBPf board must be configured in slot 2 or 3.
It is recommended that the WBBPa or WBBPb board be replaced with a WBBPd or
WBBPf board to fully utilize CCPIC (Phase 2). Assume that a WBBPa or WBBPb board
and a WBBPd or WBBPf board are inserted into one BBU to form a UL resource group.
To share the CCPIC gains of the WBBPd or WBBPf board when NodeB IC Mode is
set to FULL_IC(All board can share IC gain), UEs with their data channel carried
on the WBBPa or WBBPb board must set up another DPCCH on the WBBPd or WBBPf
board for power control. Of the UEs, those with their downlink services carried on an
HSDPA channel must set up another HS-DPCCH on the WBBPd or WBBPf board. The
extra channels consume extra processing resources, reducing the total number of users
supported by the system.
l Dependencies on Other Features
The feature WRFD-010210 Control Channel Parallel Interference Cancellation
(CCPIC) has been configured before this feature is activated.
l License
The license controlling this feature has been activated. For details on how to activate
the license, see 4 Activating the UMTS License. For details about license items, see

Procedure
l Activation Procedure
After the license is activated, this feature has been activated.
NOTE
Even if all prerequisites are ready, CCPIC (Phase 2) may not be available temporarily to the cell to
avoid interruption of ongoing services. To ensure that the cell can be adjusted to support CCPIC
(Phase 2), the Auto Rebuild Cell Switch must be set to ON(ON).
1. Run the NodeB MML command SET RESALLOCRULE (CME single
configuration: NodeB Configuration Express > IUB_NodeB > Basic
Information > Radio Management > RESALLOCRULE; CME batch modification
center: not supported). In this step, set Auto Rebuild Cell Switch to ON(ON) and set
Cs User Number Threshold and Ps User Number Threshold. If the number of CS
users or the number of PS CELL_DCH users in the downlink resource group is equal
or smaller than the corresponding threshold, the local cells are reestablished
automatically.
2. Select operations as configured.
Scenario 1: The configuration ends.
Scenario 2: Run the NodeB MML command SET ICMODE (CME single
configuration: NodeB Configuration Express > IUB_NodeB > Basic
Information > Basic Information > Radio Management > ICMODE; CME
batch modification center: not supported). In this step, set NodeB IC Mode to
PART_IC(Old board can not share IC gain).
Scenario 3: Run the NodeB MML command SET ICMODE (CME single
configuration: NodeB Configuration Express > IUB_NodeB > Basic
Information > Basic Information > Radio Management > ICMODE; CME
batch modification center: not supported). In this step, set NodeB IC Mode to
FULL_IC(All board can share IC gain).
l Verification Procedure
Check whether the CCPIC (Phase 2) feature has been activated by using the RNC or NodeB
LMT. If the base station is configured with the RRU3801C, the following verification mode
does not apply.
NOTE
Observe the activation when there are a large number of UEs because CCPIC (Phase 2) gain is obvious
only when there are a large number of UEs.
On the RNC LMT:
1. On the RNC LMT, click Monitor, choose Cell Performance Monitoring >
RTWP, enter the cell ID, and click Submit.
2. Check whether a valid value is displayed for Cell measured RTWP After First
Stage Interference Cancellation.
Expected result:
A valid value is displayed, indicating that the CCPIC (Phase 2) feature is
functioning properly. When there are a large number of UEs, Cell measured
RTWP After First Stage Interference Cancellation is smaller than Cell
Measured RTWP. The RTWP decrease further indicates that this feature has been
activated. Figure 120-1 shows the RTWP monitoring result displayed on the RNC
LMT.

126 Configuring HSDPA Power Control

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the optional feature
WRFD-01061004 HSDPA Power Control.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
This feature does not depend on the hardware.
l Dependencies on Other Features
The feature WRFD-010610 HSDPA Introduction Package must be configured before
this feature is configured.
l License
The license controlling this feature has been activated. For details on how to activate
the license, see 4 Activating the UMTS License. For details about license items, see
2 Feature Activation and License Item Descriptions.

Context
After an HSDPA service is introduced, the total downlink transmit power of each cell is classified
into common channel power, dedicated physical channel (DPCH) power, and power of HSDPA
physical channels (HS-PDSCH and HS-SCCH). To achieve high HSDPA performance, power
resources except those reserved for common channels are dynamically allocated to DPCHs and
HSDPA physical channels. For R99 services, the DPCH power can be adjusted by means of
inner-loop and outer-loop power control. HSDPA channel power resources can be dynamically
allocated and adjusted among users by using the NodeB scheduling algorithm.

HS-PDSCH power is controlled by the transport format and resource combination (TFRC)
algorithm and therefore does not require power control.

This feature enables operators to configure the appropriate power control mode of the HS-SCCH,
increasing the power efficiency and system capacity and improving the user experience.

129 Configuring HSDPA Flow Control

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the optional feature
WRFD-01061010 HSDPA Flow Control.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
This feature does not depend on the hardware.
l Dependencies on Other Features
The feature WRFD-010610 HSDPA Introduction Package must be configured before
this feature is activated.
l License
The license controlling this feature has been activated. For details on how to activate
the license, see 4 Activating the UMTS License. For details about license items, see
2 Feature Activation and License Item Descriptions.

Context
For each MAC-hs queue, HSDPA Flow Control calculates the pre-allocated Iub bandwidth based
on the Uu transmission rate and the amount of data buffered in the NodeB. The Uu transmission
rate of the MAC-hs queue is determined by the scheduling algorithm. For each MAC-hs queue,
if the Iub transmission rate is higher than the Uu transmission rate, the data packets are buffered.
Too much data buffered in the NodeB leads to transmission delay and even packet loss.
Therefore, each MAC-hs queue should not have too much data buffered in the NodeB. However,
it should retain a certain amount of data to prevent wasting the Uu resources due to not having
data to transmit.

The procedure for HSDPA Flow Control is briefly described as follows:


1. The NodeB measures the buffered data amount of each MAC-hs queue and the average Uu
transmission rate.
2. The NodeB estimates the buffering time based on the measurements.
3. The NodeB adjusts the Iub bandwidth pre-allocated to the MAC-hs queue.

l Activation Procedure

Issue 05 (2012-12-31) Huawei Proprietary and Confidential 442


Copyright Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.
RAN14.0
Feature Activation Guide 129 Configuring HSDPA Flow Control

1. Run the NodeB MML command SET HSDPAFLOWCTRLPARA (CME single


configuration: NodeB Configuration Express > IUB_NodeB > ATM Transport
Layer > ATMPort > HSDPA Flow Control > HSDPA Flow Control
Parameters; CME batch modification center: not supported) to set the parameter
Flow Control Switch to enable the NodeB HSDPA flow control function. The
adaptive flow control algorithm is recommended.

There are four types of HSDPA flow control algorithm as follows:

When Flow Control Switch is set to STATIC_BW_SHAPING, the NodeB does


not adjust the available bandwidth for HSDPA users based on delay and packet
loss on the Iub interface. Then, subtracting Iub bandwidth used by R99 from Iub
bandwidth configured, the NodeB performs Iub shaping and distributes flow to
HSDPA users.
When Flow Control Switch is set to DYNAMIC_BW_SHAPING, the NodeB
adjusts the available bandwidth for HSDPA users based on delay and packet loss
on the Iub interface. Then, considering the data rate on the air interface, the NodeB
performs Iub shaping and distributes flow to HSDPA users.
When Flow Control Switch is set to NO_BW_SHAPING, the NodeB does not
adjust the bandwidth based on delay and packet loss on the Iub interface. The
NodeB reports the conditions about the air interface to the RNC, and then the RNC
allocates the bandwidth.
When Flow Control Switch is set to BW_SHAPING_ONOFF_TOGGLE, the
flow control policy for the ports of the NodeB is either
DYNAMIC_BW_SHAPING or NO_BW_SHAPING in accordance with the
congestion detection mechanism of the NodeB. This flow control algorithm is
recommended.
l Verification Procedure
1. Choose Monitor > UMTS Monitoring > Connection Performance Monitoring on
the BSC6900 LMT. Create UL Throughput Bandwidth and DL Throughput
Bandwidth tasks.
2. Assume that the current Iub bandwidth is 4 MHz and the bandwidth usage is 80%.
Enable an HSDPA-capable UE1 to access the network and originate a PS service.
Record the throughput of UE1.

Expected result:

The throughput of UE1 is 3.2 Mbps.


3. Enable an HSDPA-capable UE2 to access the network (with the same configuration
as UE1) and originate a download service. Record the throughput of the two UEs.

Expected result:

The throughput of UE1 decreases after UE2 accesses the network. When the
throughput of the two UEs is stable, the total bandwidth of the two UEs is 4 MHz. If
user priority, service type and Security Parameter Index (SPI) of the two UEs are the
same, the final ratio of the two UEs' throughput is 1:1.
l Deactivation Procedure

DL 16QAM Modulation.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
This feature does not depend on the hardware.
l Dependencies on Other Features
WRFD-010610 HSDPA Introduction Package
l License
The license controlling this feature has been activated. For details on how to activate
the license, see 4 Activating the UMTS License. For details about license items, see
2 Feature Activation and License Item Descriptions.
l Other Prerequisites
The UE should have the capability of HSDPA besides Category 11 and Category
12:category 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28.

Context
Compared with QPSK, 16QAM is a higher-order downlink data modulation scheme. This feature
enables the peak rate on the Uu interface to reach 14.4 Mbit/s.

l The HS-PDSCH is used to carry the HS-DSCH data. The HS-PDSCH may use QPSK or
16QAM modulation symbols.
l When the UE is in poor radio environment, the transmission can adopt the low-order QPSK
modulation mode and small transport blocks to ensure communication quality.
l When the UE is in good radio environment, the transmission can adopt the high-order
16QAM modulation mode and large transport blocks to achieve high peak rate.
l The UE of category 10 can support a maximum of 15 HS-PDSCH codes and 16QAM
modulation mode. The supported peak rate on the air interface can reach 14.4 Mbit/s.

NOTE
HSDPA Introduction Package must be activated before activating this feature. For the method of
activating HSDPA Introduction Package, see the section "Configuring HSDPA Introduction
Package."
1. Run the NodeB MML command SET MACHSPARA (CME single configuration:
NodeB Configuration Express > IUB_NodeB > Radio Layer > Locell Algorithm
Parameters > MAC Parameters > MACHSPARA; CME batch modification center:
3.17 Modifying Physical NodeB Parameters in Batches). In this step, set 16QAM
Switch to OPEN(open).
l Verification Procedure
NOTE

l For the 16QAM modulation of the HSDPA UE, the NodeB license control item must be enabled.
l As defined in 3GPP 25.306, the UE in category 8 can support both QPSK and 16QAM modulation
schemes. Only 16QAM modulation, however, enables the throughput of category 8 UE to reach
5 Mbit/s.
NOTE
Only in case of good environment quality of the channel, the throughput of category 8 UE can
reach 5 Mbit/s.

Perform the following steps to check whether the download rate can reach 5 Mbit/s.
1. Use the UE to start a PS interactive service of DL 7200 kbit/s. The PS service is carried
on the HS-DSCH. The UE keeps in Cell-DCH state.
2. Start FTP (10 threads) to download given files, which are larger than 1 GB. By
monitoring the DL throughput and bandwidth, you find that the PS downloading
service is normal and the bit rate is higher than 5 Mbit/s.
l Deactivation Procedure
1. Run the NodeB MML command SET MACHSPARA (CME single configuration:
NodeB Configuration Express > IUB_NodeB > Radio Layer > Locell Algorithm

Feature Activation Guide 137 Configuring HSDPA DRD

1. Run the BSC6900 MML command LST UCORRMALGOSWITCH to check


whether DR_RAB_SING_DRD_SWITCH or
DR_RAB_COMB_DRD_SWITCH is set to ON.
Expected result: The value of DR_RAB_SING_DRD_SWITCH or
DR_RAB_COMB_DRD_SWITCH is ON.
2. Run the BSC6900 MML command LST UINTERFREQNCELL to query the inter-
frequency neighboring cells of cell 1 and whether Blind handover flag is set to
TRUE. If Blind handover flag is set to FALSE, run the BSC6900 MML
command MOD UINTERFREQNCELL. In this step, set Blind Handover Flag of
cell 2 (inter-frequency neighboring cell of cell 1) to TRUE. If Blind handover flag
is set to TRUE, go to Step 3.
3. Run the BSC6900 MML command SET UFRCCHLTYPEPARA. In this step, set
DL BE traffic threshold on HSDPA to an appropriate value.

CAC algorithm switch.
6. Enable the UE in cell 1 to originate a PS FTP download service. The value of
Maximum HSDPA user number in cell 1 is 0; therefore, the UE is handed over to
cell 2 by using directed retry. The Uu message tracing or the UE CDT tracing shows
that the RRC_RB_RECFG/RRC_RB_SETUP message is sent to the UE in cell 1 and
the RRC_RB_RECFG_CMP/RRC_RB_SETUP_CMP message is sent to the RNC in
cell 2.
NOTE

This feature also supports the following scenario: If a UE in an R99 cell (cell 1) originates HSDPA
streaming services or BE services, the UE can camp on an HSDPA cell (cell 2) through directed
retry. In this scenario, cell 2 is the inter-frequency neighboring cell for blind handover of cell 1 and
admission to cell 2 is allowed.

Feature Activation Guide 145 Configuring HSDPA Scheduling Based on UE Location

l Precautions
With this feature, HSDPA UEs at cell edges have fewer scheduling opportunities and
the cell throughput at cell edges drops. If GBRs are not configured for BE services,
HSDPA UEs at cell edges may have to wait a long time before they can get scheduling
opportunities. As a result, traffic radio bearers (TRBs) are more likely to reset and the
call drop rate increases. The magnitude of this impact depends on factors such as UE
distribution and service distribution in the cell. It is recommended that GBRs be
configured for BE services to ensure network performance.

Procedure
l Activation Procedure
1. Run the NodeB MML commandSET MACHSPARA (CME single configuration:
NodeB Configuration Express > IUB_NodeB > Radio Layer > Locell Algorithm
Parameters > MAC Parameters > MACHSPARA; CME batch modification center:
3.17 Modifying Physical NodeB Parameters in Batches). In this step, set
Scheduling Method to EPF_LOC(Location based EPF) and set Location
Weight.
l Verification Procedure
1. Run the NodeB MML commandLST MACHSPARA. If the command output shows
that the value of Scheduling Method is EPF_LOC(Location based EPF), this
feature has been activated for the cell.
l Deactivation Procedure
1. Run the NodeB MML commandSET MACHSPARA (CME single configuration:

Adaptive Adjustment of HSUPA Small Target Retransmissions.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
None
l Dependencies on Other Features
This feature depends on WRFD-010612 HSUPA Introduction Package.
l License
None

Context
l With this feature, the target number of retransmissions can shift between two preset values.
In scenarios where a small target number of retransmissions are desired on the E-DCH, the
larger one between the two preset values is used as the target number of retransmissions.
When the uplink load on the cell is not restricted and the UE rate is above a specific
threshold, the smaller one between the two preset values is used as the target number of
retransmissions. This improves the UE throughput. When the uplink load on the cell is
restricted again and the UE rate falls below another threshold, the larger one between the
two preset values is again used as the target number of retransmissions to raise the uplink
throughput of the cell.
l This feature is only intended for non-DC-HSUPA UEs.
l This feature provides two algorithms for configuring the small target number of
retransmissions: algorithm for selecting an initial small target number of retransmissions
for HSUPA UEs and algorithm for adaptively adjusting the small target number of
retransmissions for HSUPA UEs.

With 64QAM+MIMO, the peak throughput of a single user can reach 42Mbit/s, compared to
28Mbit/s with MIMO or 21Mbit/s with 64QAM only.

NOTE

l The SRB, CS service, IMS signaling, and PS conversational services are not carried on MIMO,
64QAM, or MIMO+64QAM because the data flow is small and the gain is insignificant.
l The PS streaming service, PS interactive service, PS background service, and the combined services
with previous services can be carried on MIMO+64QAM.

159 Configuring DC-HSDPA

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the optional feature WRFD-010696
DC-HSDPA.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
For 3900 series base station, BBU3900 needs to be configured with the WBBPb,
WBBPd or WBBPf.
For DBS3800 base station, the BBU3806 needs to be configured with the EBBC or
EBBCd.
The BTS3812E or BTS3812AE needs to be configured with the EBBI or EDLP board,
and the UL baseband resources of DC-HSDPA cells cannot be carried on the HBBI or
HULP board. They can be carried on the EBBI or EDLP board.
For the BSC6900, DPUe boards are recommended because the downlink 42 Mbit/s
throughput of DC-HSDPA users may be affected if the BSC6900 is configured with
DPUb boards.

Context

CAUTION
Activate this feature when the traffic volume in a cell is low. The reason is that the cell must be
deactivated before this feature is activated; after the cell is deactivated, the services in this cell
are disrupted.

Dual Cell-HSDPA (DC-HSDPA) allows an UE to establish downlink connections


simultaneously to two inter-frequency co-coverage cells that are configured with consecutive
frequencies and controlled by one NodeB. The two cells can schedule the UE simultaneously,
therefore increasing the downlink peak throughput of the UE.
The gain of downlink throughput is higher when the UE is located at the cell edge.

NOTE

l The CS service, IMS signaling, SRB signaling, or PS conversational service is carried on a single carrier
instead of DC-HSDPA because the amount of data is small and the gain is insignificant when DC-
HSDPA is used.
l The BE or streaming service can be carried over the DC-HSDPA. The BE/streaming combined service
is carried over the DC-HSDPA preferentially.

174 Configuring Enhanced DRX

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the optional feature WRFD-010702
Enhanced DRX. (This feature cannot be configured using the CME. )

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
NodeB:
The BTS3812E, BTS3812A, or BTS3812AE is configured with the EULPd, EBBI,
EBOI, or EULP board.
The BBU3806 is configured with the EBBC or EBBCd board.
The BBU3900 is configured with the WBBPb, WBBPd or WBBPf board.
l Dependencies on Other Features
Configurations of other features, on which this feature depends, are complete. This
feature depends on the feature WRFD-010688 Enhanced CELL_FACH.
l License
The license controlling this feature has been activated. For details on how to activate
the license, see 4 Activating the UMTS License. For details about license items, see
2 Feature Activation and License Item Descriptions.
l Other Prerequisites
The UE must be of 3GPP Release-8 or later and support Enhanced DRX.
HSPA+ Downlink 42Mbit/s per User

Context
The enhanced discontinuous reception (DRX) feature enables UEs in the enhanced downlink
for CELL_FACH state to receive the HS-SCCH discontinuously. After this feature is enabled,
the RAN and UEs in the enhanced downlink for CELL_FACH state transmit and receive data
at a specified time. The UE detects the HS-SCCH at regular intervals instead of detecting the
HS-SCCH continuously. When there is no data to transmit, the UE shuts down the receiver. As
a result, the power consumption of the UE decreases.

Procedure
l Activation Procedure

Feature Activation Guide 174 Configuring Enhanced DRX

1. Run the BSC6900 MML command MOD UCELLALGOSWITCH to select


E_DRX(Enhanced Discontinous Reception Function Switch) for Cell Hspa Plus
function switch.
2. Run the BSC6900 MML command DSP UCELL to check whether enhanced
downlink for CELL_FACH is activated. If the enhanced downlink for CELL_FACH
is already activated, run the BSC6900 MML command DEA UCELLEFACH to
deactivate enhanced downlink for CELL_FACH. If enhanced downlink for
CELL_FACH is not activated, go to Step 3.
NOTE

The BSC6900 MML command ADD UCELLEDRX fails to be executed in an active cell enabled
with enhanced downlink for CELL_FACH. Therefore, you need to deactivate enhanced downlink
for CELL_FACH before configuring the related parameters.
3. Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD UCELLEDRX to set parameters related to
enhanced DRX based on network planning requirements.
4. Run the BSC6900 MML command ACT UCELLEFACH to activate this feature.
l Verification Procedure
1. Start Uu Interface Trace on the LMT to trace messages on the Uu interface.
2. If the UE is not enabled with enhanced uplink for CELL_FACH, the information
element DRX Interruption by HS-DSCH data in the system information message
SIB5/5bis should be set to TRUE, as shown in Figure 174-1. If the UE is enabled
with enhanced uplink for CELL_FACH, the information element Common E-DCH
system info is carried in the system information message SIB5/5bis.

Figure 174-1 Information element in the system information message of enhanced


DRX

3. Start Cell Trace on the LMT to trace messages of a cell.


4. When the UE is in the enhanced downlink for CELL_FACH state, the RNC carries
the E-DRX indication in the HS-DSCH DATA FRAME type2 to the NodeB on the
DCCH or DTCH. If enhanced DRX is enabled, you can view that the E-DRX bit is
1 in Cell Trace, as shown in Figure 174-2. If enhanced DRX is not enabled, the E-
DRX bit is 0.

Feature Activation Guide 175 Configuring Enhanced Fast Dormancy

175 Configuring Enhanced Fast


Dormancy

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the optional feature WRFD-020500
Enhanced Fast Dormancy. (This feature cannot be configured using the CME. )

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
This feature does not have any special requirements for hardware.
l Dependencies on Other Features
This feature does not depend on other features.
l License
The license controlling this feature has been activated. For details on how to activate
the license, see 4 Activating the UMTS License. For details about license items, see
2 Feature Activation and License Item Descriptions.
NOTE

The license must be activated by performing the following operation first:


Run the BSC6900 MML command SET LICENSE to set Fast Dormancy Enhancement-per PS
Active User to an appropriate value.
l Other Prerequisites
It is good practice to maintain load balancing among all frequencies in the network when
using this feature, if the network is a service-layered network as follows and
RSVDBIT1_BIT29 of the Reserved parameter 1 in the SET URRCTRLSWITCH
command is set to 0, in order to reduce the call drops for UEs in the CELL_FACH state
that support fast dormancy, Wait RB reconfiguration response timer and RL restoration
timer in the SET USTATETIMER command need to be set to 11000 and 15000
respectively.
Frequency F1 carries R99 services.
Frequency F2 carries HSPA services.
F2 does not allow UEs in the idle, CELL_FACH, or CELL_PCH state to camp on.

Context
As the number of smartphones keeps increasing in mobile networks, the networks face signaling
storms produced by these UEs. With rich experience in network optimization, Huawei provides

Issue 05 (2012-12-31) Huawei Proprietary and Confidential 584


Copyright Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.
RAN14.0
Feature Activation Guide 175 Configuring Enhanced Fast Dormancy

a comprehensive end-to-end solution to respond to network challenges based on network


characteristics.
This feature is a component of the comprehensive solution. Deploying this feature only cannot
solve the signaling storm problem produced by smartphones. Operators should use this feature
together with professional services to optimize the quality of service of the entire network.

CAUTION
l Consult Huawei engineers about the comprehensive solution to obtain professional technical
support.
l Huawei engineers will recommend appropriate parameter settings for this feature based on
the network conditions.
l Do not configure the parameters related to this feature without Huawei professional technical
support. Inappropriate parameter settings may lead to network failures.

Always on line can be provided for PS services of intelligent UEs to improve user experience.
Always on line, however, will increase the power consumption of intelligent UEs. To prolong
UE battery life, the Fast Dormancy feature is introduced. When there is no PS data transfer, the
UE will send a signaling connection release indication (SCRI) message to request the
BSC6900 to release the RRC connection and move the UE state to IDLE mode, CELL_PCH,
or URA_PCH.
If this feature is not enabled, the BSC6900 will move the UE state to IDLE mode after the
BSC6900 receives an SCRI message from the UE or the UE inactivity timer expires. If UEs are
frequently switched between RRC connected states and IDLE mode, signaling storms occur.
If this feature is enabled, the BSC6900 will move the UE to the CELL_PCH or URA_PCH state
instead of the IDLE mode under either of the following conditions, reducing signaling processing
costs:
l The BSC6900 receives an SCRI message from the UE.
l The CELL_FACH/CELL_DCH inactivity timer on the BSC6900 expires.

Procedure
l Activation Procedure (The UE supporting fast dormancy is a Pre-Release 8 UE)
1. Run the BSC6900 MML command SET URRCTRLSWITCH to enable the feature
Enhanced Fast Dormancy at the BSC6900-level. In this step, select the
FAST_DORMANCY_SWITCH under PROCESSSWITCH.
2. Run the BSC6900 MML commandSET URRCTRLSWITCH to select the
RNC_PS_QUERY_UE_IMEI_SWITCH under PROCESSSWITCH2.
3. Run the BSC6900 MML command SET URRCTRLSWITCH to enable cell update
during CS service setup. In this step, clear the RSVDBIT1_BIT21 check box under
Reserved Parameter 1.

Issue 05 (2012-12-31) Huawei Proprietary and Confidential 585


Copyright Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.
RAN14.0
Feature Activation Guide 175 Configuring Enhanced Fast Dormancy

NOTE

After this feature is enabled, the number of CELL_DCH-to-CELL_FACH (D2F) procedures


performed increases.Set this parameter when a UE in the CELL_FACH state sets up a CS
service associated with cell reselection. The switch RSVDBIT1_BIT21 specifies whether to
allow cell update during CS service setup. When the switch is turned on, for UEs that are
establishing AMR services and shifting from the CELL_FACH state to the CELL_DCH state,
the RNC stops establishing AMR services to handle cell update if the RNC receives from the
UEs a cell update message containing the cause value "cell reselection."
4. Run the BSC6900 MML command SET URRCTRLSWITCH to enable the state
transition from CELL_PCH or URA_PCH to CELL_DCH triggered by FACH
congestion. In this step, clear the RSVDBIT1_BIT20 check box under Reserved
Parameter 1.
NOTE

After this feature is enabled, the FACH will carry a large amount of data, which may lead to
FACH congestion. Therefore, it is recommended that a new SCCPCH be added.
For details about how to handle FACH congestion in other methods, see section "FACH
Congestion Control" in the Flow Control in the RAN Feature Documentation.
5. Run the BSC6900 MML command SET UPSINACTTIMER to set the value of the
CELL_DCH, CELL_FACH, and CELL_PCH inactivity timer respectively.
The recommended value of the FAST DORMANCY USER T1 in
CELL_DCH is 5 seconds.
The recommended value of the FAST DORMANCY USER T1 in
CELL_FACH is 5 seconds.
The recommended value of the FAST DORMANCY USER T1 in
CELL_PCH is 1800 seconds.
NOTE
This document provide the recommended value of the FAST DORMANCY USER T1 in
CELL_DCH, the FAST DORMANCY USER T1 in CELL_FACH, and the FAST
DORMANCY USER T1 in CELL_PCH.
6. Run the BSC6900 MML command SET UUESTATETRANS. In this step, set Fast
Dormancy User FACH/E_FACH2DCH/HSPA 4A Threshold to D1024.
7. Run the BSC6900 MML command SET URRCTRLSWITCH to enable the Type
Allocation Code (TAC) match function. In this step, select the
FD_TAC_MATCH_SWITCH under PROCESSSWITCH.
8. Run the BSC6900 MML commandADD UIMEITAC to set the value of the TAC to
add the IMEI TACs of smartphones to the whitelist, set the The function of the
TAC to Fast_Dormancy, and set the Fast Dormancy Switch to ON.
9. Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD TRMFACTOR and MOD ADJMAP to
change the Iu-PS activity factor. The recommended value of the Iu-PS activity factor
is 10%. If the configured Iu-PS activity factor is smaller than 10%, retain the
configured value.
NOTE

After this feature is enabled, the number of UEs in the CELL_PCH or URA_PCH state increases
sharply. UEs in the CELL_PCH or URA_PCH state consume a large number of Iu-PS
bandwidth resources although they do not transmit any data.
Adjusting the Iu-PS activity factor can prevent PS service admission failures due to the increase
in the number of UEs in the CELL_PCH or URA_PCH state.

After this feature is enabled, the number of CELL_DCH-to-CELL_FACH (D2F) procedures


performed increases. Set this parameter when a UE in the CELL_FACH state sets up a CS
service associated with cell reselection. The switch RSVDBIT1_BIT21 specifies whether to
allow cell update during CS service setup. When the switch is turned on, for UEs that are
establishing AMR services and shifting from the CELL_FACH state to the CELL_DCH state,
the RNC stops establishing AMR services to handle cell update if the RNC receives from the
UEs a cell update message containing the cause value "cell reselection."
4. Run the BSC6900 MML command SET URRCTRLSWITCH to enable the state
transition from CELL_PCH or URA_PCH to CELL_DCH triggered by FACH
congestion. In this step, clear the RSVDBIT1_BIT20 check box under Reserved

Context
This feature enables the radio network controller (RNC) to identify weak reception UEs based
on the International Mobile Station Equipment Identity (IMEI) and to configure dedicated power
control and handover parameters for them. Based on the parameter settings, weak reception UEs
obtain a high downlink power control threshold in weak coverage areas and perform handovers
at the designated threshold. This prevents frequent compressed mode measurement and call
drops caused by signal quality fluctuations and improves user experience of CS voice services.

177 Configuring Layered Paging in


URA_PCH

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the optional feature WRFD-140206
Layered Paging in URA_PCH.

Prerequisites
l Dependency on Other Features
This feature does not depend on other features.
l License
The license controlling this feature has been activated. For details on how to activate
the license, see 4 Activating the UMTS License. For details about license items, see
2 Feature Activation and License Item Descriptions.
l Other Prerequisites
The URA_PCH state has been enabled and CellReSelectCounter in the SET
UUESTATETRANS (CME single configuration: UMTS Radio Global
Configuration Express > UE State Transition Parameter Configuration > UE State
Translating Parameters; CME batch modification center: 3.15 Modifying RNC
Parameters in Batches) command has been specified to enable UEs to easily enter the
URA_PCH state.
Before the feature activation, it is recommended that Enhanced Fast Dormancy be
activated and parameters related to the D2F state transition be configured to enable
smartphones to enter the URA_PCH state if possible.

Context
Due to the rapid rise of smart phone use in recent years, paging messages have been increasing.
Conventionally, paging messages are sent to the entire UTRAN registration area (URA). Once
Layered Paging in URA_PCH is activated, paging messages are first sent to the last camped-on
cell of the UEs in the URA_PCH state and the neighboring cells of the last camped-on cell.
When necessary, these messages will be sent to the URA. This reduces the number of paging
messages and the possibility of PCH congestion, eliminates the need for manually dividing
URAs, and reduces the number of URA updates.

Context
Dynamic Power Sharing of Multi-Carriers means that among multiple carriers, the carrier
bearing HSPA service can dynamically share the unused power resource of another carrier. This
function increases the utilization of the power amplifier as well as the HSPA service rate of the
cell. For asymmetrical power configuration, the carrier with higher emitting power cannot share
the unused power resource of the carrier with lower emitting power.

Procedure
l Activation Procedure
1. Run the NodeB MML command ADD PAGRP (CME single configuration: NodeB
Configuration Express > IUB_NodeB > Radio Layer > Other Information >
PAGRP; CME batch modification center: not supported) to add a power sharing
group.

Feature Activation Guide 180 Configuring Dynamic Power Sharing of Multi-Carriers

NOTE

l Dynamic spectrum sharing cannot be configured with dynamic power sharing.


l A power sharing group consists of a source local cell and a destination local cell.
l The source local cell must support only R99 services, and the destination local cell must
support HSDPA services.
l The source local cell and the destination local cell must use the same RF module and be
configured with the same maximum power.
l The maximum rate of idle power that the source local cell is allowed to share with the
destination local cell is recommended to set to default value. This rate is based on the
configured maximum transmit power of the source local cell.
l The rate of idle power that must be reserved for the source local cell. This rate is based on
the configured maximum transmit power of the source local cell. Reserving the idle power
for the source local cell helps avoid power fluctuation in the source local cell caused by
power sharing that is not timely.
l Verification Procedure
1. Before configuring the power sharing group, increase the load in the destination local
cell to 90% by means of load simulation.
2. Use multiple HSDPA UEs to perform high-speed downloading in the destination local
cell. Check the throughput of the destination local cell.
3. Run the NodeB MML command ADD PAGRP to add a power sharing group.
4. Check the throughput of the destination local cell after the power sharing group is
configured. If the throughput is greatly increased after the power sharing group is
configured, you can infer that the feature is enabled.
l Deactivation Procedure
1. Run the NodeB MML command RMV PAGRP (CME single configuration: NodeB
Configuration Express > IUB_NodeB > Radio Layer > Other Information >
PAGRP; CME batch modification center: not supported) to remove the power sharing
group.

181 Configuring Multi-Carrier Switch off


Based on Traffic Load

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the optional feature WRFD-020117
Multi-Carrier Switch off Based on Traffic Load.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
This feature does not have any special requirements for hardware.
l Dependencies on Other Features
This feature does not depend on other features.
l License
The license controlling this feature has been activated. For details on how to activate
the license, see 4 Activating the UMTS License. For details about license items, see
2 Feature Activation and License Item Descriptions.

Context
l The power consumption evaluation of the products in mobile networks shows that the
devices, particularly the base stations, in the radio access network are the principal
contributor of power consumption and CO2 emissions when they are functioning.
l If multiple carriers are used in the same coverage area, Huawei provides operators with
adaptive carrier power management to reduce power consumption. The traffic volume
varies with time. For example, a base station in the Central Business District (CBD) has a
higher traffic volume in the daytime, which requires more than one carrier to serve all the
subscribers; the traffic volume becomes low from midnight to early morning of the next
day. From RAN10.0 on, during an idle period that is configurable by operators, the RNC
dynamically shuts down the carriers on which there is no service and uses the other carriers
in the same area. The carriers will be turned on again when the traffic on the other carriers
becomes congested or when the idle period ends. This reduces power consumption.

Procedure
l Activation Procedure
1. Run the BSC6900 MML command SET URNCCELLSHUTDOWNPARA (CME
single configuration: UMTS Radio Global Configuration Express > RNC_Lever

l Verification Procedure
1. Register supporting UEs and non-supporting UEs in MOCN cells of the primary and
secondary operators. The UEs are registered successfully and properly initiate CS and
PS services.
NOTE

The MOCN network has two types of UEs:


l Supporting UE: supports the MOCN feature. In an MOCN network, the RNC broadcasts the
PLMNs of the operators through system information messages (the Multiple-PLMN list IE).
Supporting UEs interpret such PLMN information or notify the RNC of their selected PLMNs
through initial direct transfer messages. Supporting UEs support 3GPP Release 6.
l Non-supporting UE: does not support the MOCN feature. Non-supporting UEs cannot interpret
the PLMN information in system information messages.
l Deactivation Procedure
1. Run the BSC6900 MML command RMV UCELL to remove the MOCN cell.
2. Add a cell not enabled with the MOCN feature by referring to Configuring the Cell
Data.
NOTE

Deactivating the MOCN feature interrupts services. Therefore, perform the deactivation operations
early in the morning when the traffic is light.

If a cell is configured for only one operator, the system information message of
the cell does not contain the information element (IE) multiplePLMN-List.
If a cell is configured with multiple operators but is not configured with a common
operator, the system information message of the cell contains the PLMN of only
the first operator, and the value of the IE multiplePLMN-List is TRUE.
If a cell is configured with multiple operators and a common operator, the system
information message of the cell contains the IE multiplePLMN-List, broadcasting
all PLMNs of the MOCN cell.
As shown in Figure 195-1, the system information message broadcasts PLMN
302580 of the common operator.
As shown in Figure 195-2, the field PLMN Identity in the system information

199 Configuring Routing Roaming UEs


in Proportion

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the optional feature
WRFD-02131106 Routing Roaming UEs in Proportion.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
This feature does not depend on the hardware.
l Dependencies on Other Features
The feature WRFD-021311 MOCN Introduction Package has been configured before
this feature is activated.
l License
The license controlling this feature has been activated. For details on how to activate
the license, see 4 Activating the UMTS License. For details about license items, see
2 Feature Activation and License Item Descriptions.
l Others
The CN supports this feature. During initial registration of a roaming UE, the UE selects
the same operator for CS and PS services, and the IMSI is carried to the RNC.

Context
When roaming UEs of one operator move to the area served by the RNC that is shared among
multiple operators using the Multi-Operator Core Network (MOCN), the RNC routes the UEs
to CN nodes that belong to different operators according to the preset ratio if the UEs are under
the roaming agreement with these operators.

Procedure
l Activation Procedure
NOTE

Assume that operator1 and operator2 share the same RNC by using the MOCN and operator A signs
a roaming agreement with the two operators.
1. To add operator A to the roaming relation list of operator1, run the BSC6900 MML
command ADD UROAMMAP (CME single configuration: UMTS Global

Configuration Express > Operator Configuration > UROAM MAP; CME batch
modification center: not supported). In this step, set MCC for operator A to 460,
MNC to 09, Cn Operator Index for operator1 to 1, Cn Operator Group Index for
operator1 to 1, and Capability of Roaming Operator to an appropriate value
according to the network plan, such as 30.
2. To add operator A to the roaming relation list of operator2, run the BSC6900 MML
command ADD UROAMMAP (CME single configuration: UMTS Global
Configuration Express > Operator Configuration > UROAM MAP; CME batch
modification center: not supported). In this step, set Cn Operator Index for operator2
to 2, Cn Operator Group Index to 1, and Capability of Roaming Operator to an
appropriate value according to the network plan, such as 70.
NOTE

After the parameter settings are complete, the UEs that belong to operator A are distributed to
operator1 and operator2 according to the preset ratio (30:70).
If operator B also signs a roaming agreement with operator1 and operator2, the roaming UE
distribution ratio for operator B must be set to the same as that for operator A when operator
B is added to the roaming relation lists of the two operators.
l Verification Procedure
1. Run the BSC6900 MML command LST UROAMMAP to query the roaming
capacity of operator A. Expected result: Capability of Roaming Operator for
operator1 is set to 30, and Capability of Roaming Operator for operator2 is set to
70.
2. When UEs belonging to operator A roam to the RNC shared by operator1 and
operator2 by using the MOCN for a long measurement period, view the performance
counter VS.ROAM.MOCN.NUM on the M2000. Expected result: The roaming UEs
of operator A are routed to CN nodes of operator1 and operator2 in a preset proportion
of 30:70.
NOTE

UEs of the non-supporting UE type do not support network sharing, as defined in the feature
WRFD-02131101 Carrier Sharing by Operators.
This feature is not applicable to UEs of the supporting UE type (supporting network sharing).
l Deactivation Procedure
1. Run the BSC6900 MML command RMV UROAMMAP (CME single configuration:
UMTS Global Configuration Express > Operator Configuration > UROAM
MAP; CME batch modification center: not supported) to remove operator A from the
roaming relation list of operator1.
2. Run the BSC6900 MML command RMV UROAMMAP (CME single configuration:

200 Configuring MOCN Cell Resource


Demarcation

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the optional feature WRFD-140223
MOCN Cell Resource Demarcation.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
Only the 3900 series base stations configured with the WBBPb, WBBPd, or WBBPf
board support this feature.
l Dependencies on Other Features
The feature WRFD-021311 MOCN Introduction Package must be configured before
this feature is activated.
l License
The license controlling this feature has been activated. For details on how to activate
the license, see 4 Activating the UMTS License. For details about license items, see
2 Feature Activation and License Item Descriptions.

Context
This feature provides a mechanism for predefining the percentage of cell resources available to
UEs of each operator involved in the MOCN cell. This feature helps prevent the UEs of an
operator from occupying excessive cell resources.

If the MOCN cell has idle resources, the UEs of each operator can use more resources than their
predefined resource percentage. If the MOCN cell is congested, the RNC performs preemption
and congestion control on the operator whose actual resource percentage has exceeded the
predefined value. By doing so, the RNC keeps resource usage of each operator in the MOCN
cell during busy hours close to their respective predefined resource percentage.

You are not advised to use this feature with WRFD-010696 DC-HSDPA. That is because
enabling DC-HSDPA affects power measurement accuracy.

HO_INTER_RAT_CS_OUT_SWITCH

In this step, set ReservedSwitch0 to RESERVED_SWITCH_0_BIT5.


2. Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD UCELLHCS (CME single configuration:
UMTS Cell Configuration Express > Cell Parameters > Cell HCS Parameters;
CME batch modification center: 3.18 Modifying UMTS Cell Parameters in
Batches). In this step, set Use of HCS to USED.
3. Set the HCS parameters for different types of neighboring cells as follows:
Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD UINTRAFREQNCELL (CME single
configuration: UMTS Cell Configuration Express > Neighboring Cell > Intra-
frequency Neighboring Cell; CME batch modification center: not supported) to
add an intra-frequency neighboring cell and set the HCS parameters.
Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD UINTERFREQNCELL (CME single
configuration: UMTS Cell Configuration Express > Neighboring Cell > Inter-
frequency Neighboring Cell; CME batch modification center: not supported) to
add an inter-frequency neighboring cell and set the HCS parameters.
Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD U2GNCELL (CME single
configuration: UMTS Cell Configuration Express > Neighboring Cell > GSM
Neighboring Cell; CME batch modification center: not supported) to add an inter-
RAT GSM neighboring cell and set the HCS parameters.
4. For the cells whose HCS parameters have been set, run the BSC6900 MML
command ADD UCELLHCSHO (CME single configuration: UMTS Cell
Configuration Express > Cell Parameters > Cell Oriented HCS Handover
Algorithm Parameters; CME batch modification center: 3.18 Modifying UMTS
Cell Parameters in Batches). In this step, set SpdEstSwitch to ON.
5. Run the BSC6900 MML command SET UHCSHO (CME single configuration:
UMTS Radio Global Configuration Express > HandOver Parameter
Configuration > RNC Oriented HCS HO Algorithm Parameters; CME batch
modification center: 3.15 Modifying RNC Parameters in Batches) to set the RNC-
level HCS parameters according to network plan.
l Verification Procedure
1. If the moving speed of a UE is higher than the fast-moving handover threshold (the
number of 1D events reported by the UE in the specified period reaches the preset
number), an inter-frequency or inter-RAT HCS handover is triggered.
2. If the moving speed of a UE is lower than the slow-moving handover threshold (the
number of 1D events reported by the UE in the specified period is smaller than the
slow-moving handover threshold), slow-moving HCS handover measurement is
triggered, and a slow-moving inter-frequency or inter-RAT HCS handover is
performed.
3. If a measurement-based inter-frequency or inter-RAT handover is triggered, check
whether compressed mode is started by using a RRC_PH_CH_RECFG message on
the Uu interface on the BSC6900 LMT. If compressed mode is started, this feature is
activated.
4. If an inter-frequency blind handover is triggered, check whether the handover is
triggered by using a RRC_PH_CH_RECFG message on the Uu interface on the
BSC6900 LMT. If the handover is triggered by using the message, this feature is
activated.

1. On the BSC6900 LMT, start downlink traffic and bandwidth tracing tasks on the Uu,
Iub, and Iu interfaces.
2. Register an R99 user UE1 in the HLR. Enable UE1 with streaming services and with
both highest uplink rate and highest downlink rate of 384 kbit/s.
3. Register an HSDPA user UE2 in the HLR. Enable UE2 with background services and
with highest uplink rate of 384 kbit/s and highest downlink rate of 1450 kbit/s.
4. Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD TRMMAP to map R99 services to the high-
priority queue and HSDPA services to the low-priority queue.
5. All AAL2 paths of the RNC are carried on an IMA port (IMA port is configured to
1Mbit/s). Enable the port flow control when adding the IMA port.
6. Enable UE1 and UE2 to stay in idle mode and camp on the test cell. The test cell must
support HSDPA services.
7. Use UE1 to perform PS streaming services, that is, use UE1 to download files from
the FTP server.
Expected result: The IMA port is not congested and UE1 downloads data at the highest
rate.
8. Use UE2 to perform PS BE services, that is, use UE2 to download files from the FTP
server.
Expected result: The IMA port is congested and the backpressure function is triggered.
The downloading rate of UE2 decreases and that of UE1 remains unchanged. This is
because R99 services have a higher priority.

2. Run the NodeB MML command DSP AAL2ADJNODE to query the configuration
of the AAL2 adjacent node.
l Deactivation Procedure
1. Run the NodeB MML command RMV AAL2ADJNODE (CME single
configuration: NodeB Configuration Express > IUB_NodeB > ATM Transport
Layer > ALCAP > AAL2 Adjacent Node; CME batch modification center: not
supported) to remove the AAL2 adjacent node.
2. Run the NodeB MML command RMV AAL2NODE (CME single configuration:
NodeB Configuration Express > IUB_NodeB > ATM Transport Layer >
ALCAP > AAL2 Node; CME batch modification center: not supported) to remove
an AAL2 node. In this step, set Node Type to HUB(Switching Node).
NOTE

There is a relation between the AAL2 adjacent node and the AAL2 node. Therefore, you need
to remove the AAL2 adjacent nodes first and then remove the AAL2 node. Note that the AAL2
node can be removed only after all the AAL2 adjacent nodes are removed. Otherwise, the
command execution fails.

206 Configuring IP Transmission


Introduction on Iub Interface

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the optional feature WRFD-050402
IP Transmission Introduction on Iub Interface. (This feature cannot be configured using the
CME. )

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
To use the IP header compression function on the Iub interface, the PEUa or POUa
board is required.
Only the Dopra Linux OS supports the built-in firewall function for O&M.
Only the FG2c and GOUc boards of the BSC6900 support the built-in firewall function
for interfaces.
Only the FG2a, GOUa, FG2c and GOUc boards of the BSC6900 support Bidirectional
Forwarding Detection (BFD).
Dependencies on base stations:
NUTI board is needed with BTS3812E/AE to support this feature.
Only the 3900 series NodeB supports inter-board ML-PPP.
l Dependencies on Other Features
This feature does not depend on other features.
l License
The license controlling this feature has been activated. For details on how to activate
the license, see 4 Activating the UMTS License. For details about license items, see
2 Feature Activation and License Item Descriptions.

Context
This feature provides a new lub transmission solution for operators. Compared with ATM
transmission, IP transmission reduces the transmission costs of HSDPA and HSUPA services.

This feature enhances Iub transmission by introducing the following functions: BFD-based IP
fault detection, built-in firewall on the RNC side, and built-in firewall on the NodeB side.

Feature Activation Guide Interface

l If BFD-based IP fault detection is enabled, the BSC6900 triggers a port switchover, board
switchover, or IP rerouting when detecting that the gateway or the peer entity becomes
faulty. BFD can be classified into multi-hop BFD and single-hop BFD:
In multi-hop BFD, the IP addresses of the local and peer ports must be on different
network segments.
In single-hop BFD, the IP addresses of the local and peer ports must be on the same
network segment.
l The built-in firewall on the RNC side safeguards IP Ethernet ports on interface boards and
O&M ports against network attacks.
l The built-in firewall on the NodeB side safeguards the Iub interface against network attacks
during IP transmission.

Procedure
l Activation Procedure
1. Run the BSC6900 MML command SET ETHPORT to set the attributes of an
Ethernet port. In this step, takes the FG2c board as an example.
2. Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD ETHIP to add an IP address to the Ethernet
port.
3. Run the BSC6900 MML command STR IPCHK to configure the BFD check. In this

The FG2c and GOUc boards support both the invalid packet detection function and the ARP learning
strict function. The FG2a and GOUa boards support only the ARP learning strict function.
5. (Optional) Activate the built-in firewall function for O&M (only the Dopra Linux OS
supports the built-in firewall function) by performing the following operations: Log
in to the OMU through LMT locally or through Putty remotely. Run the Dopra Linux
command iptables -A INPUT -s restricted IP -i Ethernet adapter -p transport
protocol --dport restricted port -j DROP. Here, restricted IP refers to the IP address
that needs to be prohibited or allowed, and it can be a single IP address or a network
segment; Ethernet adapter is the name of the OMU external Ethernet adapter; transport
protocol can be TCP or UDP; restricted port is the port to be prohibited. If -p transport
protocol and --dport restricted port are not specified, all ports are disabled.
6. Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD PPPLNK to configure head compress for
a PPP link. In this step, set Head compress to UDP/IP_HC(UDP/IP_HC). Run the
BSC6900 MML command ADD MPGRP to configure head compress for a PPP link

center: not supported) to add a NodeB. In this step, set IUB Trans Bearer Type to
HYBRID_IP_TRANS.
2. Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD ADJNODE (CME single configuration:
NodeB Configuration Express > IUB_RNC > IP Transport > Adjacent Node;
CME batch modification center: not supported) to add an adjacent node. In this step,
set the parameter Adjacent Node Type to IUB and the parameter Transport Type
to HYBIRD_IP.
3. Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD IPPATH (CME single configuration:
NodeB Configuration Express > IUB_RNC > IP Transport > IP Path; CME batch
modification center: not supported) to add an IP path. In this step, set the parameter
Interface Type to IUB and the parameter Transport Type to HYBIRD_IP.
NOTE

If IP Path Type is set to QOS or BE-EF, the path is a high-priority path and usually E1/T1
transmission is applied.
If IP Path Type is set to LQ_QOS or LQ_BE-LQ_EF, the path is a low-priority path and usually
FE transmission is applied.
4. Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD TRMMAP (CME single configuration:

NodeB Configuration Express > IUB_RNC > IP Transport > Adjacent Node
Mapping; CME batch modification center: not supported). In this step, set Interface
Type to IUB, and Transport Type of the adjacent node and interface type and
Interface type to HYBIRD_IP.
l Verification Procedure
1. Use the UE to make a call. If the call is connected, you can infer that high-priority
services can access the high-priority IP paths normally and low-priority services can
access the low-priority IP paths normally.
2. Run the BSC6900 MML command DSP IPCHN to query the type of services carried
in the IP path, and the forward bit rate and backward bit rate of the services.

NOTE

When you allocate resources for ATM/IP dual stack-based transport on the Iub interface, take the
following suggestions into consideration:
l ATM transport, IP transport, or ATM/IP hybrid transport is applicable to control plane data. It
is recommended that ATM/IP hybrid transport be applied to control plane data for security
purposes. That is, the SAAL and SCTP links together carry an NCP or a CCP, and the SAAL
link is the active link.
l ATM transport, IP transport, or ATM/IP hybrid transport is applicable to user plane data. It is
recommended that:
l ATM transport be applied to signaling, voice services, CS conversational services, CS
streaming services, PS conversational services, and PS streaming services.
l IP transport be applied to PS interactive services, PS background services, HSDPA
conversational services, HSDPA streaming services, HSDPA interactive services, HSDPA
background services, HSUPA conversational services, HSUPA streaming services, HSUPA
interactive services, and HSUPA background services.
l Either ATM or IP transport is applicable to management plane data. It is recommended that IP
transport be applied.

1. Optional: Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD
PORTFLOWCTRLPARA (CME single configuration: UMTS Global
Configuration Express > Transmission Resources Configuration > Port Flow
Control Parameters; CME batch modification center: not supported). In this step,
set Port protocol type to IP and set other flow control parameters.
2. Switch on flow control.
a. Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD PPPLNK (CME single
configuration: NodeB Configuration Express > IUB_RNC > IP
Transport > PPP Link; CME batch modification center: not supported). In
this step, set Flow control switch to ON.
b. Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD MPGRP (CME single
configuration: NodeB Configuration Express > IUB_RNC > IP
Transport > MP Group; CME batch modification center: not supported).
In this step, set Flow control switch to ON.
c. Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD IPLOGICPORT (CME single
configuration: NodeB Configuration Express > IUB_RNC > IP
Transport > IP Logical Port; CME batch modification center: not
supported). In this step, set Flow control switch to ON.
Activating IP shaping
1. Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD IPLOGICPORT (CME single
configuration: NodeB Configuration Express > IUB_RNC > IP Transport >
IP Logical Port; CME batch modification center: not supported). In this step, set
Flow control switch to ON(ON).
2. Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD IPPATH (CME single configuration:
NodeB Configuration Express > IUB_RNC > IP Transport > IP Path; CME
batch modification center: not supported) to add a logical port. In this step, set
Bearing type to IPLGCPORT.
l Verification Procedure

Feature Activation Guide 213 Configuring Overbooking on IP Transmission

3. Register an HSDPA user UE2 in the HLR. Enable UE2 with background services and
with highest uplink rate of 384 Kbit/s and highest downlink rate of 1450 Kbit/s.
4. Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD TRMMAP to map R99 services to high-
priority queue and HSDPA services to low-priority queue.
5. All IP paths of the RNC are carried on a logical port. Enable the port flow control
when adding the logical port.
6. Enable UE1 and UE2 to stay in idle mode and camp on the test cell. The test cell must
support HSDPA services.
7. Use UE1 to perform PS streaming services, that is, use UE1 to download files from
the FTP server.
Expected result: The logical port is not congested and UE1 downloads data at the
highest rate.
8. Use UE2 to perform PS BE services, that is, use UE2 to download files from the FTP
server.
Expected result: The logical port is congested and the backpressure function is
triggered. The downloading rate of UE2 decreases and that of UE1 remains
unchanged. This is because R99 services have a higher priority.

217 Configuring UDP MUX for Iu-CS


Transmission

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the feature WRFD-050412 UDP
MUX for Iu-CS Transmission.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
This feature is supported only by the BSC6900 that is configured with the FG2a/GOUa/
FG2c/GOUc/POUc boards.
l Dependencies on Other Features
The feature WRFD-050409 IP Transmission Introduction on Iu Interface has been
configured before this feature is activated.
l License
The license controlling this feature has been activated. For details on how to activate
the license, see 4 Activating the UMTS License. For details about license items, see
2 Feature Activation and License Item Descriptions.
l Other Prerequisites
The CS CN element (MGW) supports UDP MUX.
The RTCP switch has been opened. Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD
UCNNODE (CME single configuration: UMTS Global Configuration Express >
Core Network > UMTS CN Node; CME batch modification center: not supported) to
set the RTCP SWITCH to ON.

Context
After IP transmission is introduced to the Iu-CS interface, UP packets, especially short packets
like CS packets, cannot be transmitted efficiently after being encapsulated at the RTP, UDP, and
IP layers.

This feature helps solve this problem by using a UDP subheader shorter than UDP to encapsulate
multiple RTP packets into a UDP. This reduces resources used by packet headers and therefore
improves the efficiency of Iu-CS transmission.

Feature Activation Guide 217 Configuring UDP MUX for Iu-CS Transmission

This feature supports UDP MUX, regardless of whether compression of RTP headers is enabled.
After this feature is enabled, transmission efficiency can be increased by 30% to 40%, depending
on the number of RTP packets that are encapsulated into a UDP.

Procedure
l Activation Procedure
NOTE
Configure IP paths based on the network plan.
1. Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD IPMUX (CME single configuration: IUCS
Configuration Express > IP Transport > IP MUX Pipe; CME batch modification

MUX for Iu Transmission. Check whether the feature has been activated based on the
values of IPMUX Status, Number of MUX packets, and Number of MUX Sub-
frames.
l Deactivation Procedure
1. Run the BSC6900 MML command RMV IPMUX (CME single configuration: IUCS
Configuration Express > IP Transport > IP MUX Pipe; CME batch modification
center: not supported) to remove the IP MUX paths or run the BSC6900 MML
command MOD IPMUX (CME single configuration: IUCS Configuration
Express > IP Transport > IP MUX Pipe; CME batch modification center: not
supported) to set IP MUX Type to FPMUX.

l Verification Procedure
1. Run the BSC6900 MML commandDSP ETHPORT to query the port rate and work
mode.
Expected result: Speed is 1000M and Duplex is FULL.
2. Run the BSC6900 MML commandDSP SRCIPRT to check whether the transmitted
and received data over the source IP address uses an interface board in the same slot.
If the values of Number of Packets Sent and Number of Packets Received
increase in the same slot, it indicates that the route priority on the RNC side is
consistent with that on the peer router side.
If the value of Number of Packets Received increases in the active and standby
slots, it indicates that an equal-cost route has been configured from the router to
the RNC. In this case, change the route to active and standby routes.
If the slot where the value of Number of Packets Received increases is different
from the slot where the value of Number of Packets Sent increases, it indicates
that the route priority on the RNC side is inconsistent with that on the peer router
side. In this case, change the route priority.
3. Run the ping command and check for relevant alarms. Verify that the alarms
ALM-21392 Adjacent Node IP Address Ping Failure, ALM-21393 Adjacent Node IP
Path Ping Failure are not reported and ALM-21394 Transmission Resource Pool Ping

2 Feature Activation and License Item Descriptions.
l Others
The RNC can communicate with an interconnected NE by any route using their
respective user-plane IP addresses.
The requirements for the routers on the RNC side are as follows:
If the RNC boards work in active/standby mode, dynamic routing protocols such as
Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) and Intermediate System-to-Intermediate System
(ISIS) must be configured on the RNC, and policy-based routing must be configured
on routers.
Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) is configured for static routes on routers,
configuring fast reroute (FRR) is recommended to implement second-level fast
reroute.
Deploying this feature on RNC transmission ports that work in active/standby mode
requires Huawei professional services.

l License
This feature is not under license control.

Context
With the evolution from WCDMA to IPRAN, the Ethernet transmission network is widely used.
As a layer-2 protocols, the Ethernet OAM can report the status of the network on the data link
layer. In this way, the Ethernet can be more efficiently monitored and managed. The Ethernet
OAM functions include detection, notification, verification, and fault location functions. These
faults include the hard faults (such as the link interruption) that can be detected on the physical
layer or the soft faults (such as the fault of the memory or the bridge) that cannot be detected on
the physical layer. The Ethernet OAM plays a significant role in cutting the CAPEX/OPEX cost
and complies with the service level (SLA).
The RAN supports two kinds of Ethernet OAM features, that is, the PPP Ethernet OAM feature
defined by the 802.3ah and the E2E Ethernet OAM defined by 802.1ag.
1. PPP Ethernet OAM
The PPP Ethernet OAM complies with the IEEE 802.3ah protocol. It is the last-mile OAM
solution. It implements the PPP maintenance of the Ethernet through detection, loopback,

maintenance equipment. Each MD is associated with a maintenance level. There are
eight maintenance levels, that is level 0 to level 7.
2. Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD CFMMA to add the Ethernet OAM
maintenance association (MA). Each MD can be divided into several MAs. Each MA
corresponds to a service instance identified by the VLAN in the MD.
3. Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD CFMMEP to add an Ethernet OAM
maintenance end point (MEP). You can add different local or remote maintenance
points of different MEP types to the MA.
NOTE

l The MEPID of the RemoteMep configured on the peer equipment must be consistent with
the MEPID of the LocalMep configured on the local equipment.
l MD, MA or MEP must be configured on the peer equipment when the MD, MA or MEP
has be added on BSC6900.
4. Run the BSC6900 MML command ACT CFMCCMTST to activate the Ethernet
OAM unidirectional connectivity detection between the local MEP and the remote
MEP.

225 Configuring RNC Node Redundancy

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the optional feature WRFD-040202
RNC Node Redundancy.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
This feature does not depend on hardware.
l Dependencies on Other Features
This feature does not depend on other features.
l License
The license controlling this feature has been activated. For details on how to activate
the license, see 4 Activating the UMTS License. For details about license items, see
2 Feature Activation and License Item Descriptions.
l Others

Configuring the Interfaces.

Context
This feature improves the reliability and robustness of RAN and shortens the service interruption
due to single-point failure in the RNC. In this way, the service quality is improved. With this
feature, a NodeB can be connected to two RNCs and heartbeat detection is performed on the Iur
interface between the two RNCs. When the primary RNC is faulty, the NodeB can be fast
switched to the secondary RNC for service provisioning.
The primary RNC and the secondary RNC form an RNC pool, as shown in Figure 225-1 and
Figure 225-2.

NOTE

l When the serving RNC is faulty, the maximum service capability (such as CS Erlang and PS
throughput) decreases from the combined capability of two RNCs to the capability of one RNC. As a
result, the processing specifications of the network decrease.
l To activate this feature, data configurations related to this feature are required on the RNC and the
NodeB. The CN and M2000 do not require data configurations specific to this feature. You can check
the homing state of the NodeB on the M2000.

If the license is activated , the secondary homing RNC is physically broken down
and Supporting Auto-Rehoming Switch is set to OFF, and the feature
WRFD-040300 License Control for Urgency will be activated.
WRFD-040300 License Control for Urgency can be enabled only fifteen times
for each R version for this kind of reason.

b. Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD URNCPOOLMEMBER (CME single


configuration: UMTS Global Configuration Express > Redundancy Backup
Configuration > RNC Pool Member; CME batch modification center: not
supported) to add the primary homing RNC (RNC202) to the RNC pool.
c. Run the BSC6900 MML command ACT URNCPOOL (CME single
configuration: UMTS GLOBAL Configuration Express > Redundancy
Backup Configuration > RNC Pool. Set active status to Activated; CME batch
modification center: not supported) to activate the RNC node redundancy feature.
d. Add a NodeB (NodeB1) of which the secondary homing RNC is RNC203: Run
the BSC6900 MML command ADD UNODEB (CME single configuration:

NodeB Configuration Express > IUB_NodeB > ATM Transport
Layer > NBAP > NBIUBCP; CME batch modification center: not
supported) to add a CCP link.
l Verification Procedure
1. Method 1: Verifying data configurations
a. Run the BSC6900 MML command DSP UCELL on the RNC202 LMT. The
query result shows that cell 1 is functional. Run the BSC6900 MML command

Issue 05 (2012-12-31) Huawei Proprietary and Confidential 747

RAN14.0
Feature Activation Guide 225 Configuring RNC Node Redundancy

DSP UCELL on the RNC203 LMT. The query result shows that cell 2 is
unavailable due to no control rights.
b. Perform an emulation test of the primary RNC fault.
Run the BSC6900 MML command RST UIU on RNC202 to make RNC202
become faulty.
If the BSC6900 recovers too fast after the BSC6900 MML command RST
UIU is executed, you can remove the cable on the Iu-CS/Iu-PS interface
instead.
c. After RNC203 detects that RNC202 is faulty through the Iur interface, RNC203
takes over the NodeB and initiates cell2 reestablishment.
d. (Optional) When the connection between the NodeB and the primary homing
RNC is disconnected, the secondary homing RNC cannot obtain the NodeB
control rights automatically. To solve this problem, run the BSC6900 MML
command FOC UHOSTNODEB on the RNC203 LMT to manually switch over
the NodeB control rights to the secondary homing RNC.

CAUTION
Switching over NodeB control rights manually disrupts the ongoing services
when the connection between the NodeB and the primary homing RNC is normal.

e. On both the RNC203 LMT and the RNC202 LMT, run the BSC6900 MML
command DSP UCELL. If the query result on the RNC203 LMT shows that cell
2 is operational and the query result on the RNC202 LMT shows that cell 1 is
unavailable due to no control rights, this feature has been activated. Otherwise,
this feature is not activated.
2. Method 2: Verifying services
a. Check whether the heartbeat between RNC202 and RNC203 is normal, as shown
in Figure 225-3.

Figure 225-3 Normal heartbeat between RNC202 and RNC203

b. Check that the cell under RNC202 is available, and then use the UE to establish
a CS AMR service, as shown in Figure 225-4 and Figure 225-5.

Figure 225-4 NodeB control rights obtained by RNC202

Figure 225-5 CS AMR service set up successfully

c. Power off RNC202 when RNC203 works properly. RNC203 then takes over the
NodeB control rights.
d. When RNC202 restores normal services, it takes over the NodeB control rights
again according to the rehoming strategy, and RNC203 releases the NodeB
control rights.
3. Method 3: Verifying this feature on the M2000
a. Create the RNCs and NodeB on the RNC POOL monitor of the M2000. When
creating a NodeB, the M2000 checks the homing state of the NodeB. If the RNC
is the secondary homing RNC of the NodeB, the NodeB cannot be created under
that RNC.
b. When the M2000 starts, it starts NE status subscribing. When the homing state
of the NodeB changes, the RNC reports the NodeB homing state to the M2000.
The M2000 then updates the network topology displayed in the RNC POOL
monitor.
l Deactivation Procedure
1. On RNC202 and RNC203, run the BSC6900 MML command DEA URNCPOOL
(CME single configuration: UMTS GLOBAL Configuration Express >
Redundancy Backup Configuration > RNC Pool. Set active status to
Deactivated; CME batch modification center: not supported) to deactivate the feature.

2. On the BSC6900 LMT, choose Trace > UMTS Services to initiate Uu and Iu
interface message tracing.
3. Check the traced messages. If the CN sends the BSC6900 an INFORMATION
TRANSFER INDICATION message, the dynamic CN capacity ratio is updated
and used. If the CN does not send any INFORMATION TRANSFER
INDICATION message to the BSC6900, the static CN capacity ratio is used.
4. Check the following performance counters on the M2000 to verify that the
BSC6900 performs load balancing based on the dynamic CN capacity ratio:
Performance counters for CS service setup:
VS.IU.LdBalRtCS.IMSI
VS.IU.LdBalRtCS.InValidNRI
VS.IU.LdBalRtCS.IMEI
Performance counters for PS service setup:
VS.IU.Load.RoutePS.IMSI
VS.IU.Load.RoutePS.NRI
VS.IU.Load.RoutePS.IMEI
Verifying load redistribution based on NullNRI
1. On the BSC6900 LMT, choose Trace > UMTS Services to initiate Uu and Iu
interface message tracing.
2. Power off the UE. The PTMSI of the UE is assigned by SGSN1.
3. Set SGSN1 to the OFFLOAD state and SGSN2 to the NORMAL state on the RNC.
4. Set SGSN1 to the OFFLOAD state on SGSN1.
5. Power on the UE and the UE makes an attach request. Check the traced Iu interface
messages. The expected result is as follows:
The BSC6900 routes the RRC_INIT_DIRECT_TRANSFER message to
SGSN1 based on NULL NRI. The attach reception message from SGSN1
contains NULL NRI and non-broadcasting location areas.
After receiving the non-broadcasting location areas, the UE sends a new routing
area update (RAU) request and contains NULL NRI in the
RRC_INIT_DIRECT_TRANSFER message. The BSC6900 routes the
RRC_INIT_DIRECT_TRANSFER message to SGSN2, of which the state
is not OFFLOAD, based on NULL NRI.
Verifying load redistribution based on Block CN Node
1. On the BSC6900 LMT, choose Trace > UMTS Services to initiate Uu and Iu
interface message tracing.
2. Power off the UE. The PTMSI of the UE is assigned by SGSN1.
3. Set SGSN1 to the BLOCK state and SGSN2 to the NORMAL state on the RNC.
4. Power on the UE and the UE makes an attach request. Check the
RRC_INIT_DIRECT_TRANSFER message traced on the Iu interface.
Expected result: The RRC_INIT_DIRECT_TRANSFER message contains
NRI of SGSN1. The BSC6900 routes the RRC_INIT_DIRECT_TRANSFER
message to SGSN2 because SGSN1 is in the BLOCK state.

233 Configuring Flexible frequency


bandwidth of UMTS carrier

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the optional feature WRFD-021001
Flexible frequency bandwidth of UMTS carrier.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
For 4.6M~5M(including 4.6M), all the RF module can support this feature.
For 4.0M~4.6M(excluding 4.6M), only 850M/1900M RRU3804, 850M WRFU, MRFU
V1/V2 and MRRU V1/V2, WRFUd, RRU3828, RRU3829, RRU3928, RRU3929,
MRFUd, MRFUe can support this feature.
l Dependencies on Other Features
This feature does not depend on other features.
l License
The license controlling this feature has been activated. For details on how to activate
the license, see 4 Activating the UMTS License. For details about license items, see
2 Feature Activation and License Item Descriptions.

Context
To help an operator adapt to insufficient frequency resources, Huawei supports flexible
frequency spacing. In network planning, to address insufficient bandwidth resources, an operator
can plan a frequency spacing that is lower than the frequency spacing in the case of 5.0 MHz
UMTS carrier bandwidth. Accordingly, the effective bandwidth of the RRU or RFU carrier is
adjusted so that the carrier works in a suitable status with suitable algorithms and parameters.
In this way, network performance on a low- spacing frequency is optimized as much as possible.
When deploying a UMTS site, one needs to adjust the minimal effective bandwidth of a UMTS
carrier based on the GSM frequency configuration. Otherwise, TRX alarms may occur or
network performance may deteriorate.

Procedure
l Activation Procedure
1. Before configuring the effective bandwidth of the carrier, run the NodeB MML
command LST RRU (CME single configuration: NodeB Configuration Express >

234 Configuring High Speed Access

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the optional feature WRFD-010206
High Speed Access.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
All boards of the 3900 series base stations support High Speed Access.
All boards of the DBS3800 support High Speed Access.
All boards, except the NBBI and NULP, of the BTS3812E and BTS3812AE support
the high speed access feature.
l Dependencies on Other Features
This feature does not depend on other features.
l License
This feature is not under license control.

Context
The time-selective fading caused by the Doppler effect of a fast-moving UE increases the BER
and affects the signals received by the NodeB. The high speed access feature provides the
automatic frequency control (AFC) function for the uplink, reducing the Doppler effect and
offering reliable services for the UE in high-speed movement.

NOTE

l The local sectors, remote sectors and distributed sectors support the high speed access feature.
l When the HULP, HBBI, HBBU, or WBBPa is configured to support the high speed access feature, the
capability for the board to carry access channels decreases. Each board can support the access channels
of only one cell. In addition, the board in a common four-channel demodulation mode does not support
high speed access.
l When the WBBPb, WBBPd, EBBI, EBOI, EULP, EULPd, EBBC, or EBBCd is configured to support
the high speed access feature, the capability of the board does not decrease. The board supports high
speed access in any demodulation mode.

RAN14.0
Feature Activation Guide 238 Configuring SRNS Relocation (UE Not Involved)

Set IP address to the device IP address of the interface board.


Set Peer IP address to the IP address of the serving GPRS support node (SGSN).
The VPI and VCI must be the same as those configured on the SGSN side. You
can run the command LST IPOA on the SGSN maintenance terminal to query the
settings of the VPI and VCI on the SGSN side.
3. Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD IPRT to add a route from the BSC6900 to
the DRNC. In this step:
Set Subrack No. and Slot No. respectively to the subrack number and slot number
of the Iu-PS interface board carrying the IP path.
Set Destination IP Address to the IP address of the DRNC on the Iu interface.
Set Forward route address to the IP address of the SGSN gateway.
4. Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD IPPATH to add an IP path for static SRNS
relocation. In this step:
Set Adjacent Node ID to the adjacent node ID of the SGSN.
Set Interface Type to IUR(Iur Interface).
Set Local IP address to the IP address of the SRNC on the Iu interface.
Set Peer IP address to the Iu IP address of the DRNC on the Iu interface.
5. Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD UEXT3GCELL to add a cell to the
neighboring RNC.
6. Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD UINTRAFREQNCELL to add an intra-
frequency neighboring cell.
7. Run the BSC6900 MML command SET UCORRMALGOSWITCH. In this step,
select the HO_INTRA_FREQ_SOFT_HO_SWITCH check box under the
parameter HandOver Switch and select the
SRNSR_DSCR_PROPG_DELAY_SWITCH check box under the parameter
SRNSR Algorithm Switch.
NOTE

SRNS relocation can be triggered by Iur transmission resource optimization, location


separation, delay optimization, and separation time.
The preceding procedure takes delay optimization as an example to describe the data
configuration.
8. Run the BSC6900 MML command SET USRNSR. In this step, select the All
service check box under the parameter SRNS Relocation-Allowed Traffic Type.
9. Run the BSC6900 MML command MOD UNRNC. In this step, set SHO cross IUR
trigger to an appropriate value based on the network plan, and set Handover Type
for PS BE Traffic to CORRM_SRNSR_PSBE_RELOC.
l Verification Procedure
1. The following procedure takes SRNS relocation from SRNC (RNC1) to DRNC
(RNC2) as an example. Initiate interface message tracing on both RNC1 LMT and
RNC2 LMT. Configure Iu interface message tracing, as shown in Figure 238-1.
Configure Iur interface message tracing, as shown in Figure 238-2.

240 Configuring SRNS Relocation with


Cell/URA Update

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the optional feature
WRFD-02060503 SRNS Relocation with Cell/URA Update.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
This feature does not have any special requirements for hardware.
l Dependencies on Other Features
The configurations of the features on which this feature depends are complete. This
feature depends on the feature WRFD-020605 SRNS Relocation Introduction Package.
l License
The license controlling this feature has been activated. For details on how to activate
the license, see 4 Activating the UMTS License. For details about license items, see
2 Feature Activation and License Item Descriptions.
l Other Prerequisites
The CN and the DRNC must support this feature simultaneously.

Context
If the Iur interface supports the Iur-CCH, inter-RNC cell/URA update normally does not trigger
the relocation. Instead, the relocation is triggered through the static relocation procedure. SNSR
relocation triggered by cell/URA update is performed when the following conditions are met:

l The cell update is complete.


l The source cell and target cell belong to different RNCs.
l Between the RNCs exist the Iur interface. The interface does not support the CCH, or the
Iur-CCH is not available.

The SNSR relocation can be triggered by cell reselection of UEs in the CELL_FACH,
CELL_PCH, or URA_PCH state. The relocation is started after the Cell Update or URA Update
message from the UE is forwarded from the target RNC to the source RNC over the Iur interface.

249 Configuring Enhanced Multiband


Management

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the optional feature WRFD-020160
Enhanced Multiband Management.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
This feature does not have any special requirements for hardware.
l Dependencies on Other Features
The following features have been configured before this feature is activated:
WRFD-020110 Multi Frequency Band Networking Management and
WRFD-020400 DRD Introduction Package when traffic steering is implemented
among inter-frequency cells
WRFD-020110 Multi Frequency Band Networking Management and
WRFD-020103 Inter-Frequency Load Balance when load sharing is performed
among inter-frequency cells
If a feature is not activated, the corresponding function is unavailable in the multi-
frequency band networking solution. Features can be configured according to
operator requirements.
l License
The license controlling this feature has been activated. For details on how to activate
the license, see 4 Activating the UMTS License. For details about license items, see
2 Feature Activation and License Item Descriptions.

Context
In a multiband network, the cells that work in different frequency bands have different coverage
areas. In this case, blind handovers may lead to call drops. When this feature is enabled, handover
decisions are made based on inter-frequency measurement results. This increases the handover
success rate.

In inter-frequency traffic steering, each cell is configured with the priority for carrying a type
of service (R99 RT, R99 NRT, HSPA, and others). After the RAB is set up, inter-band
measurement is performed to ensure that a UE accesses the cell with the highest priority.

RAN14.0
Feature Activation Guide 249 Configuring Enhanced Multiband Management

In inter-band load sharing, load reshuffling (LDR) may trigger a load-based inter-frequency
handover after RAB setup. A target cell is selected based on the quality measurement of cells.
Only the cell that meets the quality requirement is selected. Before RAN14.0, measurement-
based inter-band handovers for inter-band load balancing are triggered only by basic congestion
of power resources. In RAN14.0, inter-band handovers can also be triggered by basic congestion
of uplink credit resources. This balances uplink credit resources between cell groups or NodeBs
and increases uplink credit resource utilization.

turn on InterFreqRedirSwitch, set RedirBandInd based on the network plan, and
set other parameters according to the prepared data.
If RedirBandInd is set to DependOnNCell, you do not need to set
ReDirUARFCNUplinkInd, ReDirUARFCNDownlink, and
ReDirUARFCNUplink.
If RedirBandInd is set to other values, set ReDirUARFCNUplinkInd,
ReDirUARFCNDownlink, and ReDirUARFCNUplink based on the network

NOTE

Inter-frequency redirection based on distance does not select the inter-frequency neighboring
cell under the DRNC as the target cell. DRD and redirection at RRC connection setup do not
select the inter-frequency neighboring cell that uses a different frequency band from the cell
where the RRC connection is to access.

l Verifying Inter-frequency Redirection Based on Distance


1. Start Uu Interface Trace on the BSC6900 LMT. Under Uu Message Type, select
RRC_RRC_CONN_REJ.
2. Move a UE to a position where it has a distance from the NodeB but can still detect
pilot signals. Initiate a service using the UE, such as cs service.
NOTE

The distance between the UE and the NodeB must be larger than InterFreqRedirDelayThd
x 78.125 m/chip x 3 chips.
3. View the Uu interface tracing data.
If the RRC CONNECTION REJECT message includes the redirectionInfo IE
and this IE contains frequencyInfo (information about the cell), as shown in
Figure 250-1, the RNC has redirected the UE to an inter-frequency neighboring
cell and this feature has been activated.
If the RRC CONNECTION REJECT message does not include the
redirectionInfo IE, this feature has not been activated.

CAUTION
l If a cell is configured with both the RNC-level and cell-level parameters, the cell-
level parameter settings take effect. Therefore, do not modify the parameters to
default values when you are configuring the cell-level parameters.
l Intra system direct retry does not select the inter-frequency neighboring cell under
the DRNC as the target cell. DRD and redirection at RRC connection setup do not
select the inter-frequency neighboring cell that uses a different frequency band
from the cell where the RRC connection is to access.

l Verification Procedure
1. Method 1: Verifying this feature during RRC connection setup
a. Start Uu interface tracing on the BSC6900 LMT. Use a UE to initiate a PS
interactive service.
b. The UE sends an RRC_RRC_CONNECT_REQ message from cell 1 to the
BSC6900. The BSC6900 sends the UE an RRC_RRC_CONN_SETUP
message containing the scrambling code of cell 2.
c. The UE sends an RRC_RRC_CONNECT_SETUP_CMP message from cell
2 to the BSC6900. This indicates that this feature has been activated.
2. Method 2: Verifying this feature during radio bearer (RB) setup
a. Start Uu interface tracing on the BSC6900 LMT. Use a UE to initiate a PS
interactive service.
b. The BSC6900 sends an RRC_RB_SETUP message from cell 1 to the UE. The
UE sends an RRC_RB_SETUP_CMP message from cell 2 to the BSC6900. If
the service is set up successfully in cell 2 and the data transmission is normal,
this feature has been activated.
l Deactivation Procedure

255 Configuring Measurement Based


Direct Retry

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the optional feature WRFD-020402
Measurement Based Direct Retry.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
None
l Dependencies on Other Features
The feature WRFD-020400 DRD Introduction Package has been configured before this
feature is activated.
l License
The license controlling this feature has been activated. For details on how to activate
the license, see 4 Activating the UMTS License. For details about license items, see

Context
After a UE has successfully set up the RRC connection, the RNC instructs the UE to initiate
inter-frequency or inter-system measurements. Upon receipt of a radio access bearer (RAB)
assignment request from the CN, the RNC performs Directed Retry Decision (DRD) based on
the measurement results.

This feature increases the success rate of DRD and reduces the call drop rate caused by DRD
with blind handovers.

uplink bearer services, for example, HSUPA TTI 2 ms service,s HSUPA TTI 10 ms services,
and R99 services. When multiple users access the network,
l If this function is disabled, the system attempts to admit all new users using the highest

Intelligent Access Class Control.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
This feature does not depend on Hardware.
l Dependencies on other Features
This feature does not depend on other features.
l License
The license controlling this feature has been activated. For details on how to activate
the license, see 4 Activating the UMTS License. For details about license items, see
2 Feature Activation and License Item Descriptions.
l Others
UEs must support access class control delivered in system information.
For UEs complying with 3GPP Release 5 and earlier releases, access class control
cannot be performed on CS and PS services separately. If the access class of such a UE
is barred, the UE can process neither CS nor PS services.
For UEs complying with 3GPP Release 6 and later releases, access class control can be
performed on CS and PS services separately. Therefore, such a UE can process CS
services while being barred from processing PS services.

Context
This feature prevents a large number of UEs from sending RRC connection setup requests
simultaneously. When the RNC determines that a cell is congested, the RNC restricts the access
of UEs of more access classes. When the RNC determines that congestion is relieved in the cell,
the RNC reduces the number of access classes on which access control is performed. This
prevents excessive RRC connection setup requests from wasting Uu interface resources and
RNC processing resources, relieves network congestion, and improves system stability.

262 Configuring Dynamic Configuration


of HSDPA CQI Feedback Period

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the optional feature WRFD-140215
Dynamic Configuration of HSDPA CQI Feedback Period.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
To implement dynamic configuration of CQI feedback period based on the uplink load,
the NodeB needs to reports actual service load. The reported value has the following
requirements for the NodeB configuration:
The BTS3812E, BTS3812A and BTS3812AE do not support this feature.
The DBS3800 does not support this feature.
If the 3900 series base station is configured with the WBBPa board or the RRU3801C
20 W, this feature is not supported. In other configurations, this feature is supported.
To implement dynamic configuration of CQI feedback period based on CS+PS services
or based on limited coverage, the NodeB does not require any dependency.
l Dependencies on Other Features
Configurations of other features on which this feature depends are complete. This
feature depends on feature WRFD-010610 HSDPA Introduction Package.
This feature is not supported when WRFD-021350 Independent Demodulation of
Signals from Multiple RRUs in One Cell is enabled.
l License
The license controlling this feature has been activated. For details on how to activate
the license, see 4 Activating the UMTS License. For details about license items, see
2 Feature Activation and License Item Descriptions.
l Dependencies on Others
This feature needs UE to suport HSDPA.

Context
This feature considers the uplink load as the criterion for dynamically adjusting the channel
quality indicator (CQI) feedback period for HSDPA UEs. The goal is to ensure high downlink
rates when only a small number of HSDPA UEs are online and to increase the uplink capacity

a. The verification procedure consists of the RRC setup phase and the RAB
connection phase. The verification in the latter phase involves CS speech services
and PS data services.
a. Verifying that CS speech services in UMTS cell1 are handed over to GSM
cell2 at the RRC setup phase
1) Use the dual-mode MS to call a fixed telephone in cell1. The call is
successfully established. Initiate Uu-interface signaling tracing on the
LMT. The RRC_RRC_CONNECT_REQ and
RRC_RRC_CONN_REJECT messages are reported, and the
RRC_RRC_CONN_REJECT message contains GSM-
TargetCellInfo. That is, information about cell2 is contained,
indicating that the MS accesses cell2.
b. Verifying that PS data services in UMTS cell1 are handed over to GPRS
cell3 at the RAB connection phase
1) Use the MS to browse the Internet.
2) Initiate Uu-interface message tracing on the LMT. You can find that
the messages RRC_RB_SETUP, RRC_RB_SETUP_CMP,
RRC_MEAS_CTRL, and
RRC_CELL_CHANGE_ORDER_FROM_UTRAN are reported, and
that the value of InterRATEvent in the RRC_MEAS_CTRL message
is event3c.
3) Initiate Iu-interface signaling tracing on the LMT. You can find that
the RANAP_SRNS_CONTEXT_REQ message is sent from the CN
to the RNC and then the RANAP_SRNS_CONTEXT_RESP message
is sent from the RNC to the CN.
4) Initiate Iu-interface signaling tracing on the LMT. You can find that
the RANAP_SRNS_DATA_FORWARD_COMMAND and
RANAP_IU_RELEASE_COMMAND messages are sent from the
CN to the RNC and then the RANAP_IU_RELEASE_COMPLETE
message is sent from the RNC to the CN.
5) When the MS attempts to reselect cell3, Internet browsing is slightly
affected. After the MS reselects cell3, Internet browsing returns to
normal.
c. Verifying that CS speech services in UMTS cell1 are handed over to GSM
cell2 at the RAB connection phase
1) Use the dual-mode MS to call a fixed telephone in cell1. The call is
successfully established.
2) Initiate Uu-interface tracing on the LMT. You can find that the
messages RRC_RB_SETUP, RRC_RB_SETUP_CMP,
RRC_MEAS_CTRL, and RRC_HO_FROM_UTRAN_CMD_GSM
are reported, and that the value of InterRATEvent in the
RRC_MEAS_CTRL message is event3c.
3) Initiate Iu-interface signaling tracing on the LMT. You can find that
the RANAP_RELOCATION_REQUIRED message is sent from the
RNC to the CN and then the RANAP_RELOCATION_COMMAND
and RANAP_IU_RELEASE_COMMAND messages are sent from
the CN to the RNC.

4) Initiate Iu-interface signaling tracing on the LMT. You can find that
the RANAP_IU_RELEASE_COMPLETE message is sent from the
RNC to the CN.
2. 2G-to-3G Load Balancing

CAUTION
The verification can be done when only the GSM cell is in the basic congestion state.

a. Use the MS to initiate a call in the GSM cell. The directed retry procedure is
triggered so that the MS accesses the neighboring UMTS cell. The call is
successfully established. Initiate A-interface signaling tracing on the LMT. You
can find that the Assignment Request, Handover Required, and Handover
Command messages are reported and that the value of cause in the Handover
Required message is directed-retry(13).
l Deactivation Procedure
1. Configuration on the RNC side
a. Run the BSC6900 MML command SET UMBSCCRRM (CME single
configuration: UMTS Radio Global Configuration Express > MBMS
Configuration > MBSC Comm-RRM Algorithm Parameters; CME batch

274 Configuring PS Handover between


UMTS and GPRS

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the optional feature
WRFD-02030802 PS Handover between UMTS and GPRS.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
This feature does not have any special requirements for hardware.
l Dependencies on Other Features
The configurations of the features on which this feature depends are complete. This
feature depends on the feature WRFD-020308 PS Inter-RAT Handover Phase 2.
l License
The license controlling this feature has been activated. For details on how to activate
the license, see 4 Activating the UMTS License. For details about license items, see
2 Feature Activation and License Item Descriptions.
l Others
UE should support PS handover procedure.
GSM BSC should support PS handover procedure.
SGSN should support PS handover procedure.

Context
This feature enables the relocation of PS services (including non-real-time PS services and real-
time PS services) between systems. In inter-system handover scenarios, this feature can greatly
improve user perception, especially for real-time PS services.
The PS handover is different from NACC or normal cell change function, with which the
relocation procedure between 3G and 2G is applied, just like the CS inter-system handover. With
this feature, the service interruption for PS service inter-system handover is reduced by a great
extent.
In this feature, both the handover from UTRAN to GERAN and the handover from GERAN to
UTRAN are supplied. If both the UE and the network support PS handover, handover between
UTRAN and GERAN would be performed. Otherwise, either NACC or normal cell change order
would be selected.

l Others
None.

Context
This feature enables BSC6900 to adjust the user scheduling priority by identifying the
characteristics of IP data streams and modifying the initial Scheduling Priority Indicator (SPI)
Weight of downlink services.
The feature grants high scheduling priorities to specific services on which telecom operators
focus, such as services from specific servers or http services. By doing this, the bandwidth
required for processing the services is guaranteed.
In addition, the feature lowers the scheduling weight of some non-paying services that consume
a large amount of bandwidth. By doing this, sufficient bandwidth is available for services with
high scheduling priorities.

294 Configuring Micro NodeB Self-


Planning

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the optional feature WRFD-140219
Micro NodeB Self-Planning.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
Only the BTS3902E supports this feature.
The BTS3902E has been configured with the SON receiver (default configuration) and
antenna.
If the BTS3902E uses an integrated antenna, the integrated antenna incorporates the
function of the SON receiver antenna and therefore a SON receiver antenna does
not need to be configured.
If the BTS3902E uses an external antenna, a SON receiver antenna needs to be
configured.
The RNC version must be RAN13.0 or later, and the RNC data can be configured and
modified on the M2000.
l Dependencies on Other Features
The feature WRFD-031101 NodeB Self-discovery Based on IP Mode and
WRFD-031102 NodeB Remote Self-configuration must be configured before this
feature is activated.
l License
The license controlling this feature has been activated. For details on how to activate
the license, see 4 Activating the UMTS License. For details about license items, see
2 Feature Activation and License Item Descriptions.
l Others
Data has been configured for micro NodeBs on the RNC side. The UARFCN,
scrambling code, LAC, RAC, and SAC do not need to be planned, but they must have
initial values in the data configuration file. The initial SAC value is configured in the
core network.

Feature Activation Guide 294 Configuring Micro NodeB Self-Planning

OM channels have been established for micro NodeBs, and micro NodeBs have
obtained their configuration files from the M2000. The UARFCN does not need to be
planned, but it must have an initial value in the data configuration file.
Necessary information has been obtained for SON receiver parameter settings.
The NodeB auto deployment function is enabled on the M2000 side.
The M2000 must support BTS3902E WCDMA self-planning.
The RNC version must be RAN13.0 or later, and the RNC data can be configured and
modified on the M2000.
The GBSC version must be GBSS 14.0 or later to support remote configuration by the
M2000.

Context
l This feature automatically plans the following information for micro NodeBs:
Available UTRA Absolute Radio Frequency Channel Numbers (UARFCNs)
Scrambling codes
Intra-frequency neighboring cells
Inter-frequency neighboring cells
Inter-RAT neighboring cells between UMTS and GSM
LAC/SAC/RAC parameters, in which SAC self-planning results is cell ID.
l Precautions
This feature interrupts micro NodeB services.
In micro NodeB self-planning, ensure that the logical cell on the RNC has been
deactivated when preparing the RNC-side micro NodeB configuration file. The
UARFCN, scrambling code, intra-frequency neighboring cell, inter-frequency
neighboring cell, and neighboring GSM cell, LAC, RAC, and SAC in the logical micro
NodeB configuration file on the RNC are initial values, not optimal values. They may
cause interference to neighboring cells.
l Data Preparation
Preparing Data for SON Receivers
Before enabling this feature, SON receiver parameters must be preconfigured.

Preparing Configuration Files


During initial deployment, data configuration files need to be prepared on both the RNC
and micro NodeBs. The usual method is to prepare configuration files based on the
network plan. Since micro NodeB self-planning generates the settings of parameters
such as the UARFCN, scrambling code, intra-frequency neighboring cell, inter-
frequency neighboring cell, and neighboring GSM cell, and LAC/RAC/SAC, these
parameters do not need to be included in the network plan. However, these parameters
are mandatory in configuration files. The following table describes how to configure
them in default settings. For the other parameters such as transmission parameters,
configure them using the usual method.

295 Configuring NodeB Integrated IPSec

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the optional feature WRFD-140209
NodeB Integrated IPSec.

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
Only the 3900 series base stations equipped with the UMPT board support this feature
on Ethernet ports.
l Dependencies on Other Features
This feature depends on the feature WRFD-050402 IP Transmission Introduction on
Iub Interface.
When a digital certificate is used for authentication, this feature depends on the feature
WRFD-140210 NodeB PKI Support.
This feature cannot be used with the Automatic Address Configuration Protocol
(AACP) function in the feature WRFD-031101 NodeB Self-Discovery Based on IP
Route.
l License
The license controlling this feature has been activated. For details on how to activate
the license, see 4 Activating the UMTS License. For details about license items, see
2 Feature Activation and License Item Descriptions.
l Other Prerequisites
On a UMTS network, an SeGW must be deployed on the RNC side to support IP
Security (IPSec).

Context
l IPSec policies include access control list (ACL) rules, IPSec protocols, and Internet Key
Exchange (IKE).
An ACL consists of a series of ACL rules, which are used to specify the data streams
to be protected. Only data streams that comply with ACL rules can enter an IPSec tunnel.
An IPSec protocol defines how to protect data streams and includes the protocol type,
encapsulation mode, and encryption and verification algorithms.

Copyright Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.
RAN14.0
Feature Activation Guide 295 Configuring NodeB Integrated IPSec

IKE is used to authenticate IPSec peers, negotiate encryption algorithms, and generate
session keys before an IPSec SA is established. IKE supports two methods for
authenticating IPSec peers: pre-shared key (PSK) and digital certificate.
l During IPSec deployment, base station data can be encrypted in two modes: unified
encryption and separate encryption.
In unified encryption mode, O&M data streams are protected by IPSec. Secure Sockets
Layer (SSL) encryption can be implemented before IPSec encryption.
In separate encryption mode, O&M data streams are protected by SSL, not by IPSec.
l Accordingly, IPSec networking scenarios are classified into the following types:
PKI-based networking in unified encryption mode
PKI-based networking in separate encryption mode
PSK-based networking in unified encryption mode
PSK-based networking in separate encryption mode
l Precautions
IPSec ensures transmission security by encapsulating and encrypting IP packets. This
reduces the transmission efficiency of service packets on the bearer network.
l Data Preparation
Prepare the data required for the IKE proposal (the IKEPROPOSAL MO).

l Verification Procedure
1. Run the NodeB MML command DSP IKESA. Check whether IKE SA data is
displayed in the returned result. If IKE SA data is displayed, go to step 2. If IKE SA
data is not displayed, IPSec fails to be activated.
2. Run the NodeB MML command DSP IPSECSA. Check whether IPSec SA data is
displayed in the returned result. If IPSec SA data is displayed, this feature has been
activated.
3. Run the NodeB MML command LST ACLRULE to check the ACL rules and
determine whether service data is protected by IPSec tunnels. Check whether the
protected services are running normally. For example, if voice services are protected
by IPSec tunnels, place a call to check whether voice services are still running
normally; if management plane packets are protected by IPSec tunnels, check whether
the corresponding NodeB is still online on the topology view of the M2000.

298 Configuring Multi-mode Dynamic


Power Sharing (UMTS)

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the optional feature MRFD-221801
Multi-mode Dynamic Power Sharing (UMTS).

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
Only the MRFU and the MRRU supports GSM and UMTS Dynamic Power Sharing at
present.
l Dependencies on Other Features
This feature can't be activated with WRFD-010684 22 MIMO or WRFD-010693 DL
64QAM+MIMO simultaneously.
This feature has to be activated with MRFD-211801 Multi-mode Dynamic Power

the license, see 4 Activating the UMTS License. For details about license items, see
2 Feature Activation and License Item Descriptions.
l Other Prerequisites
The UMTS cell must exist HSDPA Carry.

Context
In the case of a 3900 series multi-mode base station, the GSM and UMTS TRXs can share one
power amplifier. When there is unbalanced traffic in the GSM and the UMTS, the power can be
used more efficiently in an effective way, namely, sharing the power amplifier. The overall
network quality of the GSM and the UMTS is therefore improved.

NOTE

l The feature may fail to recall the shared power in one second when the GSM services increase suddenly.
As a result, internal GSM peak clipping occurs, which affects service quality.
l Enabling the feature may cause the UMTS coverage to shrink and therefore increase the drop rate. The
problem can be addressed by handing over services in marginal coverage to a GSM/UMTS cell under
the same coverage as the original UMTS.

301 Configuring TDM-Based Multi-


mode Co-Transmission via Backplane on BS side
(NodeB)

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the optional feature MRFD-221504
TDM-Based Multi-mode Co-Transmission via Backplane on BS side (NodeB). (This feature
cannot be configured using the CME. )

Prerequisites
l Dependencies on Hardware
A GSM and UMTS dual-mode base station supports this feature.
When the TDM timeslot cross connection co-transmission feature is supported by a
GSM and UMTS dual-mode base station, a UTRP should be configured for the BTS.
The UTRP type must be UTRP3, UTRP4, or UTRPb4.
l Dependencies on Other Features
WRFD-050302 Fractional ATM Function on Iub Interface
WRFD-050411 Fractional IP Function on Iub Interface
l License
This feature is not under license control.

Context
This feature enables the BTS and NodeB to share E1/T1 transmission resources through a
backplane clock channel with the effective TDM timeslot cross connection function.

Backplane-based co-transmission is classified into the following scenarios:


l In the scenario of GTMU-based TDM timeslot cross connection co-transmission, E1/T1
timeslots on the UMTS side are transmitted to the GTMU through the backplane TOP
channel on the WMPT. E1/T1 ports on the GTMU are connected to the transmission
network. The TDM timeslot cross connection function enables GSM data and UMTS data
to be multiplexed on the transmission network. Therefore, E1/T1 transmission resources
are shared by the GSM and UMTS modes by timeslot, as shown in Figure 301-1.

Figure 301-1 GTMU-based TDM timeslot cross connection co-transmission

l In the scenario of GSM-UTRP-based TDM timeslot cross connection co-transmission, a


UTRP is configured on the GSM side. Therefore, extra E1/T1 resources can be shared by
the UMTS mode through the backplane TOP channel to extend E1/T1 transmission
resources for the UMTS mode, as shown in Figure 301-2.
NOTE

l The number of E1/T1 on the BTS backplane is within the range of 16 through 19. E1/T1 numbers 16 through
19 on the BTS backplane correspond to E1/T1 numbers 0 through 3 on the NodeB backplane. Cross
connection is not supported. For example, E1/T1 No. 16 on the BTS backplane only corresponds to E1/T1
No. 0 on the NodeB backplane.
l E1 timeslot numbers configured on the BTS side must be consistent with those configured on the NodeB
side.

Figure 301-2 GSM-UTRP-based TDM timeslot cross connection co-transmission

Procedure
l Activating the BTS data (GTMU-based)
1. Run the BSC6900 MML command ADD BTSCONNECT to add a connection
between a GTMU port and the NodeB. Set Dest Node Type (select Connect to
BSC on the CME) to OTHER.

BASE_BOARD.
4. Run the NodeB MML command ADD SAALLNK to add an SAAL link.
Set Subboard Type to BASE_BOARD.
Set Rate Unit to KBPS or CELL/S. Only one rate unit can be used. Therefore,
rate units in other configuration must be consistent.
5. Run the NodeB MML command ADD AAL2NODE to add an AAL2 node.
Set Node Type to LOCAL(LOCAL).
Set ATM Address to a valid ATM address. The recommended value is
H'3900000000000000000000000000000000000000.
6. Run the NodeB MML command ADD AAL2PATH to add an AAL2 path.
Set Node Type to LOCAL(End Node).
Set Subboard Type to BASE_BOARD.
Set Rate Unit to KBPS or CELL/S. Only one rate unit can be used. Therefore,
rate units in other configuration must be consistent.
7. Run the NodeB MML command ADD IUBCP to add an NCP link. In this step, set
NCP/CCP Port Type to NCP(NCP Port).
8. Run the NodeB MML command ADD IUBCP to add a CCP link. In this step, set
NCP/CCP Port Type to CCP(CCP Port).

l Verification Procedure
1. Run the NodeB MML command DSP IKESA. Check whether IKE SA data is
displayed in the returned result. If IKE SA data is displayed, go to step 2. If IKE SA
data is not displayed, IPSec fails to be activated.
2. Run the NodeB MML command DSP IPSECSA. Check whether IPSec SA data is
displayed in the returned result. If IPSec SA data is displayed, this feature has been
activated.
3. Run the NodeB MML command LST ACLRULE to check the ACL rules and
determine whether service data is protected by IPSec tunnels. Check whether the
protected services are running normally. For example, if voice services are protected
by IPSec tunnels, place a call to check whether voice services are still running
normally; if management plane packets are protected by IPSec tunnels, check whether
the corresponding NodeB is still online on the topology view of the M2000.
