Power Control

CDMA is not a new technology Power control is a key technology of CDMA

system Power control is the key path for launching the

large scale CDMA commercial network

CDMA is a typical self-interference system, thus the chief CDMA is a typical self-interference system, thus the chief

principle is that any potential surplus transmitted power for principle is that any potential surplus transmitted power for

service must be controlled.service must be controlled.

Why Power Control?

All CDMA users occupy the same frequency spectrum at the same time! Frequency and time are not used as discriminators.

CDMA operates by using codes to discriminate between users.

CDMA interference comes mainly from nearby users

Each user is a small voice in a roaring crowd -- but with a uniquely recoverable code.

To achieve acceptable service quality, the transmit power of all users must be

tightly controlled so that their signals reach the base station with the same

signal strength and the absolute minimum power level demanded to avoid

the Near-Far Effect.

Open Loop Power Control

General principals of open loop power control Open loop power control is applied to estimate the initial

transmitted power for a new radio link. P-CPICH signal is used in Downlink Open Loop Power

Control, which is measured by UE to estimate the initial transmitted power.

The following factors will also be considered, such as service QoS and data rate, Eb/No requirements of establishing service, current downlink total Transmitted Power and interference from neighbor cell etc.

Close Loop – Inner Loop Power Control

General principals of inner loop power control The receiver compares the SIR value of received signal with target SIR,

and then sends back TPC instruction. According to the instruction, the sender will decide to increase/decrease the transmitted power.

Inner loop power control is required for the following channels: DPCH, PDSCH, PCPCH

Inner loop power control is not required for the following channels : P-CPICH(S-CPICH), P-CCPCH(S-CCPCH), PRACH etc.

Outer Loop Power Control algorithm Employ the inner loop power control to keep SIR close to target

SIR. Measure the quality of service, including target BLER, CRC

indicator and SIR Error, then set the value of SIR_Target. Tune the target SIR with pre-defined step as the adjustment

parameter for inner loop power control to keep the service in good quality in time-varying wireless propagation environment.

The uplink open loop power control algorithm is executed in the RNC while the downlink one is executed in UE.

The Effect of Power Control

The purpose of DL power control: Saving power resource of NodeB. Reducing interference to other NodeB.

What’s ? When UE is moving from the coverage area of one site to another,

or the quality of service is declined by external interference during a service, the service must be handed over to an idle channel for sustaining the service.

Handover is used to guarantee the continuity of service

Hard Handover

During the hard handover procedure, all the old radio links with the UE are abandoned before new ones are established, so there must be service interruption during the HHO.

Hard handover may occur in the following main cases

When the UE is handed over to another UTRAN carrier, or another technology mode.

WCDMA General Handover Procedures---- “Handover Trilogy” Measurement Control

UTRAN demands the UE to start measurement through issuing a measurement control message.

Handover decision UTRAN makes the decision based on the measurement

reports from UE. The implementation of handover decision is various for different vendors. It impacts on the system performance critically.

Handover execution UTRAN and UE execute different handover procedure

according to the handover command .

Page 25: 03 wr bt1004 e01_1 wcdma key technology-80

General Procedure of Handover Control (I)

Measuring

The measurement objects are decided by RNC. Usually, either Ec/N0 or

RSCP (Received Signal Code Power) of P-CPICH channel is used for

handover decision.

ZTE RNC adopts Ec/N0 measurement, because Ec/N0 embodies both

the received signal strength and the interference. The relation of Ec/N0

and RSCP is shown as follows:

Ec/N0 = RSCP/RSSI

In the above equation , RSSI ( Received Signal Strength Indicator ) is

measured within the bandwidth of associated channels

General Procedure of Handover Control (III)

Handover algorithm All the handover algorithms including soft handover,

hard handover and so on are implemented on the event decision made according to the measurement reports.

Events defined in 3GPP specifications Intra-frequency events : 1A~1F Inter-frequency events : 2A~2F Inter-RAT events : 3A~3D

Note: RAT is short for “Radio Access Technology”, e.g. WCDMA&GSM

Page 28: 03 wr bt1004 e01_1 wcdma key technology-80

Concepts Related to Handover

Active Set: A set of cells that have established radio links with a

certain mobile station. User information is sent from all these cells.

Monitored Set: A set of cells that are not in the active set but are

monitored according to the list of adjacent cells assigned by the UTRAN.

Detected Set: A set of cells that are neither in the active set nor in the

monitor set.

Page 29: 03 wr bt1004 e01_1 wcdma key technology-80

Soft handover process

Measurement RNC sends a measurement control message to UE. UE should perform measurement as required and report the measurement

result. Generally, the measured parameter is the common pilot’s Ec/No.

Decision RNC stores data of different cells according to the measurement results. RNC makes preliminary decision according to the event decision method. e.g.

When the event is reported and the target cell is acceptable, send an active set update command to add/delete the cell into/from the active set.

Execution The RNC sends an active set update command to UE and UE starts

handover.

Soft handover events

Event Description

1A Quality of target cell improves, entering a report range of relatively activating set quality

1B Quality of target cell decreases, depart from a report range of relatively activating set quality

1C The quality of a non-activated set cell is better than that of a certain activated set cell

1D Best cell generates change

1E Quality of target cell improves, better than an absolute threshold

1F Quality of target cell decreases, worse than an absolute threshold

Hard Handover

Hard handover measurement is much more complex for UE than soft handover measurement.

Inter-frequency hard handover requires UE to measure the signal of other frequencies.

WCDMA employs compressed mode technology to support inter-frequency measurement.

WCDMA Capacity Features

Page 36: 03 wr bt1004 e01_1 wcdma key technology-80

Admission Control

The admission control is employed to admit the access of incoming call. Its general principal is based on the availability and utilization of the system resources.

If the system has enough resources such as load margin, code, and channel element etc. the admission control will accept the call and allocate resources to it.

Page 37: 03 wr bt1004 e01_1 wcdma key technology-80

Purpose of Admission Control

When user initiates a call , the admission control should implement admission or rejection for this service according to the resource situation.

The admission control will sustain the system stability firstly and try the best to satisfy the new calling service’s QoS request, such as service rate, quality (SIR or BER), and delay etc. basing on the radio measurement.

Admission control is the only access entry for the incoming services, its strategy will directly effect the cell capacity and stability, e.g. call loss rate, call drop rate.

Load control

The purpose of load control is to keep the

system load under a pre-planned threshold

through several means of decreasing it, so as to

improve the system stability.

The speed and position

changing of UE may

environment.

power will increase the

system load.

Load Control in Uplink

Triggers RTWP (Received Total Wide-band Power) value from

measurement report exceeds the uplink overload threshold; Admission control is triggered when rejecting the access of

services with lower priority due to insufficient load capacity in uplink.

Methods for decreasing load Decrease the target Eb/No of service in uplink; Decrease the rate of none real time data service; Handover to GSM system; Decrease the rate of real time service, e.g. voice call; Release calls.

Methods for increasing load Increase the service rate.

Page 51: 03 wr bt1004 e01_1 wcdma key technology-80

Why Code Resource Planning?

The OVSF (Orthogonal Variable Spreading Factor) code tree is a scarce resource and only one code tree can be used in each cell. In order to make full use of the capacity, and support as many connections as possible, it is important to plan and control the usage of channel code resource.

Downlink PN code allocation should be planned to avoid the interference between neighboring cells.

The uplink PN codes are sufficient, but RNC should plan the codes to use for avoiding allocating same code to different users in inter-RNC handover scenario.

Page 52: 03 wr bt1004 e01_1 wcdma key technology-80

Code Resource Planning

The uplink and downlink scrambling code can be planned easily by computer.

The uplink channelized code does not need planning, for every UE can use the whole code tree alone.

Therefore, only the downlink channelized code is planned with certain algorithm in RNC.

Each cell has one primary scrambling code, which correlates with a channel code tree. All the users under this cell share this single code tree, so the OVSF code resource is very limited.

The downlink channelized code tree is a typical binary tree with each layer corresponds to a certain SF ranging from SF4 to SF512.

Channelized Code Characters

Code allocation restriction : The code to be allocated must fulfill the condition that its

ancestor nodes including from father node to root node and offspring nodes in the sub tree are not allocated;

Code allocation side effect: The allocated node will block its ancestor nodes and offspring

nodes, thus the blocked nodes will not be available for allocation until being unblocked .

Page 56: 03 wr bt1004 e01_1 wcdma key technology-80

Strategy of Channelized Code Allocation

Full utilization The fewer the blocked codes, the higher code tree utilization rate.

Low Complexity Short code first.

Allocate codes for common channels and physical shared channels prior to dedicated channels.

Guarantee the code allocation for common physical channels. Apply certain optimized strategy to allocate codes for downlink

dedicated physical channels.

RAKE Receiver

The multi-path signals contain some useful energy , therefore the CDMA receiver can combine these energy of multi-path signals to improve the received signal to noise ratio.

RAKE receiver adopts several correlation detectors to receive the multi-path signals, and then combines the received signal energy.

WCDMA Capacity Features

WCDMA capacity feature WCDMA capacity is Soft Capacity.

The Concept of Soft Capacity The system capacity and communication quality are

interconvertible. Different services have different capacity. Different proportion of services have different capacity

for mixed services. The capacity is also restricted to the allocation of code

resource.

Crucial Factors for WCDMA Network (CQC)

Page 75: 03 wr bt1004 e01_1 wcdma key technology-80

Coverage and Capacity

WCDMA performance is determined by such factors as: Number of users Transmission rate Moving speed Wireless environment

indoors Outdoors

The radius of cell depends on such factors as: Local radio conditions (local interference) Traffic in neighbouring cells (remote interference)

Cell Radius decrease according to the Increase of user number
