4G TRIAL: STRATEGY – PUCCH OUTERLOOP POWER CONTROL

Fact Finding Result :

PUCCH Inner Loop Power Control in eRAN 8.0 is only based on the SINR&RSRP of Format - asd
1a/1b (i.e., ACK channel) but the interference of Format 2/2a/2b (i.e., CQI/PMI/RI channel) is
higher than Format 1a/1b

Background
Improve demodulation performance  Downlink throughput increase

Analysis
The decrease of the SINR of Format 2/2a/2b and impairs the performance of Format
2/2a/2b as result, CQI-feedback performance and downlink throughput may
degrades. UE-B without downlink data , constantly
Interferes on PUCCH Fmt2x of UE-A

Inner Loop : TPC will increase or decrease based on SINRtarget+SINRoffset

Outer Loop : TPC will increase or decrease based on SINRtarget+SINRoffset BUT
SINRtarget can dynamic based on BER
