• DL: separates physical channels of different users and common channels, defines
physical channel bit rate
• UL: separates physical channels of one user, defines physical channel bit rate
• Scrambling code
• DL: separates cells in same carrier frequency
• UL: separates users

Physical Layer Bit Rates (DL) - HSDPA
• 3GPP Release 5 standards introduced enhanced DL bit rates with High Speed
Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) technology
• Shared high bit rate channel between users – High peak bit rates
• Simultaneous usage of up to 15 DL channelisation codes (In HSDPA SF=16)
• Higher order modulation scheme (16-QAM) Higher bit rate in same band
• 16-QAM provides 4 bits per symbol 960 kbit/s / code physical channel peak rate

Coding rate Coding rate 5 codes 10 codes 15 codes
• 3GPP Release 6 standards introduced enhanced UL bit rates with High Speed
Downlink Packet Access (HSUPA) technology
• Fast allocation of available UL capacity for users – High peak bit rates
• Simultaneous usage of up to 2+2 UL channelisation codes (In HSUPA SF=2 – 4)
• Initial expected capability 1.46 Mbps

DL Scrambling Codes
• Pseudo noise codes used for cell separation
• 512 Primary Scrambling Codes
UL Scrambling Codes
• Two different types of UL scrambling codes are generated
• Long scrambling codes of length of 38 400 chips = 10 ms radio frame
• Short scrambling codes of length of 256 chips are periodically repeated to get the
scrambling code of the frame length
• Short codes enable advanced receiver structures in future

BLER target
• In HSDPA (DL) the transmit power from base station is kept constant and the
signal modulation and coding is adapted according to the channel conditions
• 2 ms interval 500 Hz
• In HSUPA (UL)
• The power control of HSUPA channels in UL utilise both
• Fast closed loop power control
• Outer loop power control
• Both work according to similar principles as the dedicated channel power control
• HC is responsible for:
• Managing the mobility aspects of an RRC connection as UE moves around the
network coverage area
• Maintaining high capacity by ensuring UE is always served by strongest cell
• Soft handover
• MS handover between different base stations
• Softer handover
• MS handover within one base station but between different sectors
• Hard handover
• MS handover between different frequencies or between WCDMA and GSM

• HSDPA
• Soft handover on associated DCH channels (signalling, UL data)
• Serving cell change for HSDPA data channel
• Connected only to one cell at a time
• HSUPA
• Soft handover utilised for uplink channels as required due to near-far problem
• Only Serving Cell can allocate more UL capacity/power
