Performances and capacity

111581 - Dual Carrier : extension to 2 frequency bands

Dual Band-Dual Carrier HSDPA feature is the 3GPP release 9 extension of SB

DC-HSDPA feature to two frequency bands: it aggregates two downlink carriers from two

different frequency bands

This feature has the following impact:

• Configuration Management

This feature introduces following new BTS parameters:

– DualBandActivation (HsdpaConf object)

This parameter enables / disables activation of Dual Band HSDPA for the cell.

When this parameter is set to TRUE and threeCellActivation as FALSE , the Dual

Band Dual Cell HSDPA is Activated. When this parameter is set to TRUE with

threeCellActivation as TRUE means, Dual Band three Cell HSDPA is Activated.

– secServHsdschCellActDeactCheckInterval (Class 3-A2, HsdpaConf object) - This

defines the time interval, in seconds, for the scheduler at serving HS-DSCH cell to

check whether the conditions to (de)activate a secondary serving HSDSCH cell

for a 3C/DC/DB-DC HSDPA call are met.

– secServHsdschCellDeactLoadThreshold (Class 3-A2, HsdpaConf object) - This

parameter defines the threshold used by the scheduler at the serving HSDSCH cell

to decide whether a secondary serving HS-DSCH cell for a 3C/DC/DBDC call

shall be deactivated.

– secServHsdschCellActLoadThreshold (Class 3-A2, HsdpaConf object) - This

parameter defines the threshold used by the scheduler at the serving HSDSCH cell

to decide whether a secondary serving HS-DSCH cell for a 3C/DC/DBDC call

shall be activated.

– secServHsdschCellDeactSPIThreshold (Class 3-A2, HsdpaConf object) - This

parameter defines the Scheduling Priority Indicator (SPI) threshold to check

whether a user can be considered for deactivation of secondary serving HS-DSCH

cell for a 3C/DC/DB-DC HSDPA call (without MIMO).

– hsscchOrderRepeatInterval (Class 3-A2, HsdpaConf object) - This defines the

time interval, expressed in number of TTIs, for a repeat transmission of a

HS-SCCH order if no acknowledgement is received by the scheduler at the

serving HS-DSCH cell to (de)activate a secondary serving HSDSCH cell for a

3C/DC/DB-DC HSDPA call.

– hsscchOrderMaxTx (Class 3-A2, HsdpaConf object) - This defines the maximum

number of transmissions allowed for a HS-SCCH Type1 order in the

‘retransmission FIFO’ queue used by the scheduler at the serving HSDSCH cell to

activate / deactivate a secondary serving HS-DSCH cell for a 3C/DC/DB-DC

HSDPA call without MIMO.

– secServHsdschCellDeactBOThreshold (Class 3-A2, HsdpaConf object) - This

parameter defines the Buffer Occupancy threshold used by the scheduler at the

serving HS-DSCH cell to decide whether a secondary serving HS-DSCH cell for a

3C/DC/DB-DC call shall be deactivated.

– secServHsdschCellActBOThreshold (Class 3-A2, HsdpaConf object) - This

parameter defines the Buffer Occupancy threshold used by the scheduler at the

serving HS-DSCH cell to decide whether a secondary serving HS-DSCH cell for a

3C/DC/DB-DC call shall be activated.

– dualAndThreeCellHsdpaMimoMaxNumberUserEcem (Class 3-A2, BTSEquipment

object) - The aim of this parameter is to allow the operator to limit the maximum

number of DC-HSDPA or MIMO users allowed per eCEM board to a lower value

than an internal hard coded limitation parameter named internalMaxMIMODual-

CellHsdpaUsersAllowed. This internal parameter is related to the eCEM board.

– dbMultiCarrierAntennaAccessPair (AntennaAccess object) - This parameter is

used to identify two AntennaAccess (logical sectors) that would form one physical

sector. This parameter is needed for DB-DC & DB-3C configurations and this

parameter should point to another AntennaAccess instance.

This feature introduces following new RNC parameters:

– eMBRThreshold2cHsdpa (Class 3-A2, hsdpaRncConf object) - This parameter

defines an admission criterion for DC-HSDPA or DB-DC-HSDPA considering

RANAP extended-MBR or supported-MBR.

– isHsdpaDualBandActivated (Class 3-B, FddCell - This parameter activates /

deactivates the support of DB-HSDPA operation at cell level. When this parameter

is set to TRUE with isHsdpaThreeCellActivated as false means, Dual Band Dual

Cell HSDPA isactivatedd for the cell. When this parameter is set to TRUE with

isHsdpaThreeCellAllowed as TRUE means, Dual Band three Cell HSDPA is

activated for the cell.

Performance Management

The following new counters are added:

– VS. SbDcDbDcHsdpaMobilitySuccess (counter family HSDPA / EDCH Cell ) -

Number of successful SB-DC<->DB-DC HSDPA mobility: 1. Successful

SB-DC->DB-DC mobility (Intra Freq) 2. Successful DB-DC->SB-DC mobility

(Intra Freq) 3. Successful SBDC->DB-DC mobility (Inter Freq) 4. Successful

DB-DC->SB-DC mobility (Inter Freq).

This counter contains the following screenings:

- Screening 0 : SB-DC HSDPA Cell to DB-DC HSDPA Cell , IntraFreqSbDcHsd-

paToDbDcHsdpa

177049 - Soft Congestion Extension



The following new RNC parameters are added:

– isNodebCacAtRncAllowed (Class 3-A1 , RadioAccessService object) - Global

activation flag for running Node B Cac at RNC. If set to true, this implies that the

Node B CAC algorithm at RNC is applicable

– isSoftCongestionForMcAllowed (Class 3-A1 , RadioAccessService object) - This

parameter extends the Soft Congestion algorithm for multi carrier configurations

in UL and DL. If set to true this implies that any CAC failure for multi-carrier call

admission will be a trigger for Soft Congestion.

– isSystematicCsOverPsPreemptionAllowed (Class 3-A1 , RadioAccessService

object) - This parameter downgrades or pre-empts any PS calls for CS call

regardless of OLS priority of the PS call. If set to true, this implies that an

incoming CS call is able to preempt any active PS call independent of Preemption

feature activation.

– useMcAccessRestrictionForHsdpaCallAdmission (Class 3-A2 ,

RadioAccessService object) - This parameter enables/disables application of

multi-carrier access threshold for HSDPA call admission. If set to true, this

implies that access restriction is applied for HSDPA call admission

– softCongestionCapabilityForRabReconfiguration (Class 3-A2 , SoftCongestion

object) - This parameter indicates if CAC failure during RAB reconfiguration may

trigger soft congestion procedure.

– softCongestionQueuingReallocationPriority (Class 3-A2 , SoftCongestionHs-

paService object) - This parameter indicates which of the SoftCongestionQueu-

ingInfo to be applied for each service/OLS.

– reallocationRetryMaxNumberForAoUpsize (Class 3-A2 , SoftCongestionQueuing-

Info object) - Number of times RNC retries to deallocate resources for AO Upsize

trigger from same UE.

– dcHsdpaAccessRestricted (Class 3-A2 , McAccessRestrictionPerCellColour

object) - This parameter indicates whether the corresponding OLS/Radio Load

combination is restricted from accessing 3C-HSDPA resources. If set to true, this

implies that the corresponding OLS/radio load combination is restricted from

accessing DC-HSDPA cell resources.

– dcHsdpaAccessThresholdEventId (Class 3-A2 , FDDCell object) - Reference to

instance of McAccessRestriction to retrieve accessibility criteria for DC-HSDPA

configuration.

– isNodebCacAtRncActivated (Class 3-A1 , BTSCell object) - This parameter

enables/disables at BTSCell level the support of running Node B CAC at RNC. If

set to true, this implies that Node B is reporting the Node B CAC to RNC

– isPreemptionDownsizeToPchAllowed (Class 3-A2 , PreemptionAllowedInfo

object) - This parameters facilitates AO downsize to xxx_PCH state for any call

that is eligible to be released due to preemption processing.

– preemptionCapabilityBasedOnEstCauseForRrcCnxReq (Class 3-A2 ,

PreemptionAllowedInfo object) - This parameter if set uses Establishment cause in

the RRC Connection Request to do the P-service mapping of the Service Type

thus Preemption algorithm can differentiate service requests at the time of RRC

establishment for finding an appropriate target .

The following parameters have been modified:

– fallbackPolicyUponCacFailure (Class 3-A2 , FDDCell object) - This parameter

specifies the fallback policy in case of CAC failure upon RAB modification.The

basic fallback option is first fallback to DCH, then iMCTA in case of failure of

previous step, pre-emption in case of failure of previous step.

– highUplinkTrafficThresholdForEdchClassic (Class 3-A2 , EdchTrafficActivityS-

martphone object) - If uplink traffic is above this threshold per ols for a

pre-configured time, then a TTI reconfiguration to E-DCH classic TTI (2ms or

10ms) will be considered if E-DCH400 is used. It is only applicable only if

uplinkTrafficVolumeDetectionForE-DCH400 is set to True.

– lowUplinkTrafficThresholdForEdch400kbs (Class 3-A2 , EdchTrafficActivityS-

martphone object) - If uplink traffic is below this threshold per ols for a

pre-configured time, then a reconfiguration to E-DCH400 will be considered if

currently E-DCH classic TTI (2ms or 10ms) is used. It is only applicable only if

uplinkTrafficVolumeDetectionForE-DCH400 is set to True.

118254 - Automatic Carrier Switch-off Evolution

This feature is an evolution of the Automatic Carrier Switch-off (ACS) feature. In

addition to allow operators to automatically shut down a carrier at an STSR X+Y Node B

site, with this feature it will be possible to use shutdown carriers even for STSRX (X >=

2) Node B sites.



This feature introduces following new parameters:

– totalCellsLoadThresholdForSwitchOnOverlay (Class 3-a2 , AutoSwitchOffCon-

fExtension object)

This parameter applies in case of Automatic Carrier Switch-off (ACS) involving

three or more cells (one base and two overlay cells).This parameter is used when

the ACS formulas (including simulated mode) are based on ‘RL load’ or ‘RL load

and Power load’.

– overlayCellPowerThresholdForSwitchOff (Class 3-a2, AutoSwitchOffConfExten-

sion object) - When base cell and two or more overlay cells are monitored, the

candidate overlay cell for switch-off shall have its Power load lower than this

threshold.This parameter is used when the ACS formulas (including simulated

mode) are based on ‘Power load’ or ‘RL load and Power load’.

– totalCellsPowerThresholdForSwitchOff (Class 3-a2, AutoSwitchOffConfExtension

object) - When base cell and two or more overlay cells are monitored, one overlay

cell can be switched-off only when the total Power load reported to the combined

base and other overlay cells max transmission power is lower than this threshold.

– totalCellsLoadThresholdForSwitchOnOverlay (Class 3-a2, AutoSwitchOffConfEx-

tension object) - When base cell and one or more overlay cell are monitored, the

already switched-off overlay cell can be switched-on only when the total Radio

Link load in the base cell and the monitored overlay cell is higher than this

threshold.

– overlayCellPowerThresholdForSwitchOff (Class 3-a2, AutoSwitchOffConfExten-

sion object) - When base cell and two or more overlay cells are monitored, the

candidate overlay cell for switch-off shall have its Power load lower than this

threshold.

– totalCellsPowerThresholdForSwitchOnOverlay (Class 3-a2, AutoSwitchOffCon-

fExtension object) - When base cell and one overlay cell are monitored, the

– overlayCellToBeSwitchedOffFirst (Class 3-a2, FDDCell object) - If this parameter

is set to TRUE, this cell should be switched-off by RNC before the other overlay

cell referencing the same base cell when low traffic conditions are met. When

switched-on, this cell will be setup after the other overlay cell.

– autoSwitchOffExemptionDayList (Class 3-a1, AutoSwitchOffExemptions object) -

List of up to 10 exemption days in which Automatic Carrier Switch-off shall be

disabled by RNC. Each element in the list will identify a day in DDMMYYYY

format.

object) - End day of exemption period during which Automatic Carrier Switch-off

shall be disabled by RNC. autoSwitchOffExemptionEndPeriod is in

DDMMYYYY format.

– isHSxPAToBeReconfigured (Class 3-a2, FDDCell object) - This parameter

indicates if the cell must be reconfigured with HSXPA in case of twin cell switch

off.

– criteriaForSwitchOn (Class 3-a2, AutoSwitchOffConfClass object) - This

parameter specifies when RNC triggers the switch-on of the already switched-off

cells. If set totrafficBased , switch-on of the cells would happen based on the

traffic. If set to timeBased, switch-on of the cells would happen at the time defined

by the parameter endTimeValiditySwitchOff. If set to trafficAndTimeBased,

switch-on of the cells would happen on whichever occurs earlier (time defined by

the parameter endTimeValiditySwitchOff or based on traffic.

173198 - Autonomous modem power down upon ACS

The aim of this feature is to autonomously shut down unused modems inside a Node B

upon shut down of one or several carriers. The target is to reduce Node B power

consumption in low-traffic periods at night time.



The following new parameter is added:

– A new activation flag autonomousModemSwitchOffActivated is introduced in this

feature.

autonomousModemSwitchOffActivated (Class 3-a1 , BtsEquipment object) - This

parameter is used to activate modem switch on/off depending on whether modem

is serving any cells. If set to true and when the last cell served by Modem is

deleted, Modem is switched OFF and when first cell is being setup, modem is

switched ON. If set to false, modem is not switched OFF at all and remains

always ON.

Note: This feature is only applicable for eCEM and xCEM boards.

RNC evolutions

174471 - 9771 WCE RNC Capacity Scaling

The geo-redundancy for the 9771 WCE RNC, brings disaster recovery mechanisms to the

RNC, enabling full service restoration in less than 2 minutes, when triggered.

Geo-redundancy utilizes the shadow mechanisms, extended to a second location to create

the geo-redundant reflection, a mirror image of the service providing 9771 WCE RNC.



The following new parameters are added:

– elementMode, elementStatus, elementActivity, activityProgress (

Element/userLabel object) - These are the new operational attributes introduced

by this feature.

– prepForReflection,startReflection, disconnect, connect, cancelActivity,

createTenantInstance, deleteTenantInstance (Element/userLabel object) - These

are the new action attributes introduced by this feature.

174544 - 9771 WCE RNC Capacity Scaling

This feature is WCE specific and contains a list of sub-feature activities that are aimed to

improve the capacity of the WCE RNC.

The sub-feature activities under the Capacity Scaling feature are:

• Scale the CNP nodes to maximum 254 UMU

• Callp Multicast Messaging Optimization

• SRNTI Evolution

• Call load balancing

• 1600 MTU



The following new parameters are added:

– mtu ( RoutingDomain object) - This attribute specifies the value of the Maximum

Transmission Unit (MTU) size for the traffic types supported by the

object RoutingDomain. The default size is 1500. Only uplaneIuPs may be

configured with the value 1600.
