›
A resource_ID (TXM) on a DUW can be used for the
following purposes
–
Up to 6 cell carriers HSDPA with a maximum of 30 HS codes and up to
128 users (max 96 users per cell)
–
R99 DCH with a capacity of 128CE
–
6 cell carriers EUL with up to 96 users (max 48 users per cell carrier)

›
We can treat one TXM on a DUW as HSPDA processing
resource.
Resources per duw
DUW 10 01 = Low capacity = 128CE = 1 RXM + 3 TXM (at most 1 for DCH)

DUW 20 01 = Medium capacity = 384CE = 3 RXM + 5 TXM (3)

DUW 30 01 = High capacity = 768CE = 4 RXM + 8 TXM (6)

A-dch ce reservation
• A-DCH are dedicated channels, used for UL/DL signaling (SRB) when using HSDPA service.

• A-DCH channels consume CEs both for UL/DL, but in DL these CEs are reserved from the
DL R99 CE pool.

• It is important to calculate the amount of R99 CE as this A-DCH reservation effectively

reduces the CE capacity for R99.

A-DCHs for UL&DL

With W11B feature “SRB on

HSDPA”, no A-DCH CEs
reservation is necessary!!
A-dch ce reservation
• The cost for 1 A-DCH in RBS6000 is 0.5CE.

• The amount of A-DCH resources is reserved by default in a Baseband pool the minimum of Criteria
1 and Criteria 2 below:

• Criteria 1

A-DCH CE reserved = 1.3 * sum of the lowest of the values of either the RBS License Key
“Number of HSDPA users per Cell” or RbsLocalCell::maxNumHsdpaUsers, determined cell-by-cell * 0.5

For eg,
1st cell: RBS License Key “Number of HSDPA users per Cell” = 64 and MO
parameter RBSLocalCell:: maxNumHsdpaUsers = 32

2nd cell: RBS License Key “Number of HSDPA users per Cell” = 64 and MO
parameter RBSLocalCell:: maxNumHsdpaUsers = 64

Therefore, A-DCH CE reserved = (32 + 64) x 1.3 x 0.5 = 63 CE

• Criteria 2

A-DCH CE reserved = 1.3 * number of HS Resource_ID * 128 * 0.5

Therefore, A-DCH CE reserved = (32 + 64) x 1.3 x 0.5 = 63 CE

For Dual Carrier:
The two cells involved in the MC connection must be
configured in the same HSDPA resource_ID. For a 3

Final comments
• In order to make a proper DUW dimensioning, it has to be taken into
account:

• Number of HS Users per cell

• Number of HSDPA Resources

• Number of EUL Resources

• Number of Carriers per sector

• Number of sectors

• Number of necessary UL&DL CEs

appendix I power parameters

• maxDlPowerCapability: The maximum downlink power capability for

the cell. The attribute is calculated by the RBS and reported to the
RNC.
(maxDlPowerCapability = Nominal power (carrier) - ∑ dlattenuation )
• maximumtransmissionpower: This parameter allows the operator to
limit the maximum used power in the cell. In normal cases this is not
necessary.
