� qQualmin: sent in the broadcast information and indicates the

minimum required quality value. The UE measures the received

quality, “Qqualmeas”; on the CPICH (CPICH Ec/N0) and

calculates Squal.

minimum required signal strength. The UE measures the received

signal Code Power (CPICH RSCP) and obtains Srxlev

� maxTxPowerful: the maximum transmission power during

random access on the RACH. Value sent in the system

In order to always camp on the best cell the UE performs the cell

reselection procedure in the following cases:

� When the cell on which it is camping is no longer suitable.

� When the UE, in “camped normally” state, has found a better

Cell reselection process

S q u a l > 0 (o n ly W C D M A ce lls )

S rx le v > 0

� When the UE, in “camped normally” state, has found a better

neighboring cell than the cell on which it is camping.

� When the UE is in limited service state on an acceptable cell.

When the UE triggers a cell reselection evaluation process, it

performs ranking of cells that fulfill the following criteria:

Cells are ranked according to the R criteria:

R(serving) =Qmeas(s) + qHyst(s)

R(neighbor) = Qmeas(n) - qoffset(s,n)

�Qmeas is the quality value of the received signal.

�Qmeas may be derived from the averaged CPICH Ec/No or

CPICH RSCP for WCDMA cells.

�Qmeas uses the averaged received signal level for GSM cells.

CPICH RSCP is always used as a measurement quantity when

WCDMA cells are compared with GSM cells. 16

Idle mode behavior: Cell reselection procedure

� Cell reselection criteria are used for intra-frequency, inter-frequency

and inter-RAT cells.

� Decision on when measurements on intra-frequencies should be

performed is made using the parameter sIntraSearch in relation to

Squal.

If Squal > sIntraSearch the UE does not need to perform

intrafrequency measurements.

If Squal ≤ sIntraSearch the UE performs intrafrequencymeasurements.

If the sIntraSearch is not sent to the serving cell, the UE

performs intrafrequency measurements.

From the UE point of view, the WCDMA cells are divided into Active,

Monitored, and Detected Sets.

i. The Active Set: The radio links involved in the handover

ii. The Monitored Set: The neighbors of the Active Set cells, are

Softer Handover process

explicitly measured for handover (can contain both intra-frequency

and GSM neighboring cells).

iii. The Detected Set: The UE is also required to detect intra-frequency

cells that are not in the Active or Monitored Sets

� The active set size is configured by operator using

“maxActiveSet” parameter (from 2 � 4 cells) 20

Parameters and constraintsParameters and constraints

• Parameters:

– CDMA technology with new engineering

rules,

– Deployment strategy with existing 2G and

2,5 G networks.

• Radio constraints:

– Services segmentation and related QoS,

– Coverage/services tradeoff.

CDMA planning principlesCDMA planning principles• Issues:

- Band shared among all active connections � Separation

between Radio planning – Dimensioning not possible,

- Coverage and capacity are linked together,

- The capacity depends on the traffic distribution and the

base stations location.

CDMA advantages:

- no a-priori limitation of the capacity as in TDMA �

Soft capacity,

- capacity allocation done according to C/I (bandwidth

allocation if SIRmin ≤ SIR).

WCDMA systems specificities (1)WCDMA systems specificities (1)• Main features and constraints:

− Node B power: shared among the N connected mobiles,

− Noise maximum power: 10 dB,

− Transmission power: between 6 and 10 dB,

− Transmission power on each level: depends on propagationconditions and activated service,

− Mobiles distribution in the cell: if the mobiles are close to the

− Mobiles distribution in the cell: if the mobiles are close to theNode B, capacity can be up to 10 times that of when the mobileare far from the Node B,

− Cell breathing: access management achieved by call admissioncontrol based on the noise rise and load control,

− Power control is fundamental for the UL: outer loop to adjust the target power according to the BER estimation and fast power control against fast fading. Fast power control � continuoustransmission on the radio interface, packet transmission at layer 2.

• Simulation

– Unlike GSM network, in CDMA coverage and capacity are too inter-

related to be predicted accurately. Monte Carlo simulation is used to

evaluate the performance of a radio network.

WCDMA simulationWCDMA simulation

– Monte Carlo is a static simulation

During Monte Carlo simulation, the performance of the network is analyzed over

various instances in time (snapshot), where UEs are in statistically determined

places with the given traffic model. The ability of each terminal to make its

connection to the network is calculated through an iterative process.

Load factor and noise rise

• Noise rise level of noise increase due to the increase

of the load in the cell.

Noise rise is related to the load factor which measures

the load of each link (uplink or downlink).

� Noise rise is important if the capacity and this the load

authorized in the cell is important (then reduced cell

size).

�Urban areas: large noise rise,

� Rural areas: reduced noise rise.

The more the noise rise, the smaller the cell radius but the higher the potential traffic carried in the cell.

� Noise Rise = Traffic Margin.
