1 Description of Change

1.1 Description of Sites

The target sites of activating feature WRFD-010652 SRB over HSDPA are HSDPA

enabled site.

The current SRB is setup on DCH while HSDPA service is setup, the transmit power

control (TPC) command is transmitted to the UE on an A-DPCH. After feature

WRFD-010652 SRB over HSDPA is activated, downlink SRB of a support UE are

carried on HSDPA, and the A-DPCH is replaced with the F-DPCH.

1.2 Purpose and Requirements

F-DPCH binding with SRB over HSDPA can make full use of the downlink codes

and power due to replacing many DPCHs. As a result, it make more codes and

power available for HSDPA to improve the downlink capacity. (eg., if A-DPCH using

code SF=256, F-DPCH can be shared by 10 UEs, which means max 9 SF=256

codes and power resource can be saved). Moreover, the SRB over HSDPA is

prerequisite of another feature WRFD-010686 CPC-DTX/DRX which is planned to

be introduced to production network.

This feature requires both network and handsets to support.

1.3 Description of Change and Change Influence

To enable this feature, the network performance optimization parameters and

function switches are going to be tuned to ensure the user experiences.

1.3.1 Software Version

The WRFD-010652 SRB over HSDPA feature will be enabled on SRAN9.0

software RNC and NodeBs

1.3.2 Monitoring and Maintenance Switches

After WRFD-010652 SRB over HSDPA being enabled on production network,

there are risks that PS call drop rate will increase. The following switches will be set

to recommended value to facilitate the investigation and troubleshooting process.
