2 Overview

E2e Flow Control protects network elements (NEs) in a radio access network (RAN) from being overloaded. The NEs that participate in flow control are the RNC and NodeB.

Before E2E Flow Control is introduced, the RNC is unaware of whether the NodeB CPU, including the CPU of the baseband and WMPT, is congested or overloaded. Therefore, the RNC continues to admit a large number of RRC CONNECTION REQUEST messages and send RADIO LINK SETUP REQUEST messages to the NodeB over the Iub interface even when the NodeB is congested or overloaded. In this case, the NodeB should reject or discard these RADIO LINK SETUP REQUEST messages, which lower the cell resource utilization. In addition, the access of high-priority services cannot be guaranteed because the NodeB is unaware of the service priority of each message. To address these issues, Huawei has introduced E2E Flow Control Phase 1 and E2E Flow Control Phase 2. E2e Flow Control limits the traffic flow that enters NEs and therefore ensures the stable operation of NEs when these NEs are overloaded. For details about other flow control measures, such as flow control for overloaded RNC units, see the Flow Control Feature Parameter Description. Compared with flow control performed on a single NE, E2E Flow Control has the following benefits:

More reference information is provided for flow control because of cooperation between NEs. For example, if the RNC provides service priority information for the NodeB, the NodeB can implement differentiated flow control based on service priorities to preferentially ensure the access of high-priority services.

Better flow control effects can be achieved because of cooperation between NEs. In E2E Flow Control Phase 2, the RNC performs flow control on RRC CONNECTION REQUEST messages, and the NodeB performs flow control on RADIO LINK SETUP REQUEST messages. Consequently, if the NodeB is overloaded, the RNC reduces the number of unnecessary RRC CONNECTION REQUEST messages to be processed. This action reduces the NodeB Application Part (NBAP) signaling traffic on the Iub interface, increasing resources available to admitted UEs and RAN resource utilization.

3 E2E Flow Control

3.1 E2E Flow Control Phase 1

In E2E Flow Control Phase 1, RADIO LINK SETUP REQUEST messages sent by the RNC to the NodeB are categorized by service priority. The NodeB performs flow control based on service priorities to reduce the NodeB CPU load and ensures preferential access of high-priority services.

E2E Flow Control Phase 1 is based on service priorities. It enables a consistent flow control policy between the NodeB and RNC, achieving E2E Flow Control. Figure 3-1 shows E2E Flow Control Phase 1 used in the RRC connection setup procedure.

Figure 3-1 E2E Flow Control Phase 1 used in the RRC connection setup procedure

The procedure for E2E Flow Control Phase 1 is as follows:

1. The UE sends an RRC CONNECTION REQUEST message to the RNC. This message contains information identifying the service initiating the RRC connection request.

2. The RNC sends a RADIO LINK SETUP REQUEST message to the NodeB. This message contains the service priority.

3. Upon receiving the RADIO LINK SETUP REQUEST message, the NodeB checks the CPU load. If the NodeB is overloaded, it rejects or discards the RADIO LINK SETUP REQUEST message based on the service priority instead of blindly discarding this request.

The NodeB makes flow control decisions on RADIO LINK SETUP REQUEST messages from different services based on three thresholds: allowed flow control threshold, preferential flow control threshold, and absolute guaranteed threshold.

Allowed flow control threshold: threshold for starting flow control on real-time services (conversational and streaming services)

3-2

Preferential flow control threshold: threshold for starting flow control on low-priority non-real-time services (background and interactive services)

Absolute guaranteed threshold: threshold for starting flow control on emergency calls

Table 3-1 describes the flow control policies of different services.

Table 3-1 Flow control policies for different services

If... Then...

Allowed flow control threshold > CPU load ≥ Preferential flow control threshold

The NodeB rejects the RADIO LINK SETUP REQUEST messages of BE services (background and interactive services). Then, the procedure continues on to 4.

Absolute guaranteed threshold > CPU load ≥ Allowed flow control threshold

The NodeB rejects the RADIO LINK SETUP REQUEST messages of all services (BE, conversational, and streaming services) except those of emergency calls. Then, the procedure continues on to 4.

CPU load > Absolute guaranteed threshold

The NodeB discards the RADIO LINK SETUP REQUEST messages of all services.

If the CPU load is normal, the NodeB proceeds with the normal radio link setup procedure.

4. If the RADIO LINK SETUP REQUEST message is rejected or discarded due to flow control, the NodeB sends the RNC a RADIO LINK SETUP FAILURE message with the cause value of Control processing overload.

5. The RNC sends the UE an RRC CONNECTION REJECT message, which contains the information element (IE) wait time.

Upon receipt of this message, the UE waits for the period of time specified by the IE wait time and retransmits the RRC CONNECTION REQUEST message. This prevents frequent RRC connection setup attempts and reduces the network load. E2E Flow Control requires the UE to support the processing associated with the IE wait time. For details about the wait time, see the Flow Control Feature Parameter Description.

In other procedures, for example, in a CELL_FACH-to-CELL_DCH state transition procedure, the RNC also sends the NodeB a RADIO LINK SETUP REQUEST message, which carries the service priority. If the NodeB CPU is overloaded in such a procedure, the NodeB performs flow control on the RADIO LINK SETUP FAILURE message by using the policies described in Table 3-1.

The preferential flow control threshold is specified by the FRTRJT parameter on the NodeB side. The absolute guaranteed threshold and allowed flow control threshold cannot be configured by operators. Their default values are 95% and 93%, respectively.

By default, E2E Flow Control Phase 1 is disabled. To enable it, run the SET URRCTRLSWITCH command with the RsvdPara1 parameter set to RSVDBIT1_BIT5-1&RSVDBIT1_BIT31-0 on the RNC side.

3.2 E2E Flow Control Phase 2

In E2E Flow Control Phase 2, the RNC performs flow control on RRC CONNECTION REQUEST messages of new services (excluding emergency calls) based on the CPU congestion level reported by the NodeB and service priorities. The RRC CONNECTION REQUEST messages of low-priority services are preferentially rejected. E2E Flow Control Phase 2 serves as a supplement to E2E Flow Control Phase 1. The former reduces the NBAP signaling traffic on the Iub interface and saves RAN resources.

Huawei recommends using E2E Flow Control Phase 2 in conjunction with E2E Flow Control Phase 1, which is shown in Figure 3-2.

Figure 3-2 E2E Flow Control Phase 2 used in conjunction with E2E Flow Control Phase 1

The procedure for E2E Flow Control Phase 2 used in conjunction with E2E Flow Control Phase 1 is as follows:

1. The NodeB monitors the CPU load in real time and specifies the congestion level in the measurement report of the Received Total Wideband Power (RTWP).

2. The NodeB periodically reports the RTWP to the RNC.

3. The UE sends an RRC CONNECTION REQUEST message to the RNC. The message contains information about the service initiating the RRC connection request.

4. The RNC limits the number of RRC CONNECTION REQUEST messages admitted at the current second based on the congestion level reported by the NodeB.

The RNC does not perform flow control on RRC CONNECTION REQUEST messages of emergency calls or conversational services. According to the cause of the service establishment, the RNC performs flow control on RRC CONNECTION REQUEST messages of other services based on their service priorities. The following service priorities are in descending order: streaming services > BE services and high-priority signaling > low-priority signaling.

If the number of RRC CONNECTION REQUEST messages admitted is greater than the preset threshold at the current second, the RNC rejects all subsequent RRC CONNECTION REQUEST messages and responds with RRC CONNECTION REJECT messages. If the number of rejected RRC CONNECTION REQUEST messages is greater than the value of the SysRrcRejNum parameter (set by running the SET UCALLSHOCKCTRL command), the RNC discards all received RRC CONNECTION REQUEST messages and does not respond to UEs with RRC CONNECTION REJECT messages. The number of RRC CONNECTION REQUEST messages that can be admitted at the current second on the RNC can be adjusted by running the SET UCTRLPLNFCPARA command. The default value is recommended. Note that adjusting this parameter directly affects flow control. Consult Huawei technical support before modifying the parameter settings.

5. If an RRC CONNECTION REQUEST message can be admitted, the RNC sends a RADIO LINK SETUP REQUEST message to the NodeB. This message contains the service priority. Then, the NodeB performs E2E Flow Control Phase 1 based on its CPU load. For details, see section 3.1 "E2E Flow Control Phase 1."

By default, E2E Flow Control Phase 2 is disabled. To enable it, run the SET UCTRLPLNFCPARA command with the RanCtrlFcSwitch parameter set to RAN_CTRLPLN_FC-1.

E2E Flow Control Phase 2 automatically stops if the RNC does not receive any RTWP measurement reports for more than 1 minute. When the RNC receives another RTWP measurement report, it starts E2E Flow Control Phase 2.

3.3 Overload Indication

The following counters indicate the number of RRC CONNECTION REQUEST messages discarded when E2E Flow Control Phase 2 is enabled:

VS.LowPriRRC.RanFC.Disc.Num

VS.NormPriRRC.RanFC.Disc.Num

VS.HighPriRRC.RanFC.Disc.Num

The counter VS.NodeB.CPU.Cong.Dur indicates the E2E Flow Control Phase 2 usage duration.

E2E Flow Control 4 Engineering Guidelines

Issue 02 (2012-05-30) Huawei Proprietary and Confidential

Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd

4-1

4 Engineering Guidelines

4.1 E2E Flow Control Phase 1

4.1.1 Configuration Suggestions for E2E Flow Control Phase 1

When the NodeB is overloaded, E2E Flow Control Phase 1 reduces the NodeB load, helping to ensure access of high-priority services, such as emergency calls and CS services. It is recommended that E2E Flow Control Phase 1 be enabled.

4.1.2 Recommended Parameter Settings

The following key parameters are related to E2E Flow Control:

FRTRJT

The FRTRJT parameter specifies the flow control threshold for low-priority non-real-time services. The default value of this parameter is 90%, which ensures a smooth network upgrade.

RrcConnRejWaitTmr

After E2E Flow Control is enabled, set the IE wait time in the RRC CONNECTION REJECT message to 15 seconds.

4.1.3 Key Parameter Settings

Setting FRTRJT to a smaller value increases network reliability and the access of CS services and emergency calls is guaranteed when traffic burst occurs. In addition, the NodeB is less likely to break down, which occurs when the NodeB CPU load exceeds the absolute guaranteed threshold.

Setting FRTRJT to a smaller value, however, reduces the radio link setup success rate of the NodeB.

Setting FRTRJT to a larger value increases the number of service setups. For example, if the parameter value is changed from 80% to 90%, 10% more CPU capacity is used for service access. Flow control, however, can be triggered only when the CPU load reaches 90%, which reduces network reliability.

4.2 E2E Flow Control Phase 2

4.2.1 Configuration Suggestions for E2E Flow Control Phase 2

The RNC starts E2E Flow Control Phase 2 before the NodeB CPU is overloaded. Therefore, the RRC setup success rate of PS services may decrease after E2E Flow Control Phase 2 is enabled. E2E Flow Control Phase 2 reduces the signaling traffic over the Iub interface to avoid NodeB overload. Huawei recommends that E2E Flow Control Phase 2 be enabled to increase NodeB reliability.

4.2.2 Recommended Parameter Settings

After E2E Flow Control Phase 2 is enabled, set the reporting period of RTWP to 1 second or less by running the SET ULDM command and modifying the TenMsecForUlBasicMeas parameter. If the reporting period of RTWP is longer than 1 second, the effect of flow control may deteriorate because the feedback of the NodeB CPU usage may be delayed. For example, if the reporting period of RTWP is set to 2 seconds, then in the first second, the RNC can limit the number of RRC CONNECTION REQUEST messages that can be admitted based on the congestion level reported by the NodeB. In the next second, the RNC has to limit those requests assuming that the congestion level remains unchanged.
