Load Control 2 Overview
Draft A (2013-01-30) Huawei Proprietary and Confidential

2 Overview
The WCDMA system is a self-interfering system. As the load of the system increases, the interference rises. A relatively high interference can affect the coverage of cells and QoS of established services. Therefore, the capacity, coverage, and QoS of the WCDMA system are mutually affected. To solve these problems, the load control function is introduced to control the load in a cell.
Load control aims to maximize the system capacity while ensuring coverage and QoS by controlling the key resources, such as power, downlink channelization codes, channel elements (CEs), and Iub transmission resources, which directly affect user experience.
Each cell has its own set of load control functions that are responsible for monitoring and controlling the resources of the cell. The load control functions monitor the load condition of the cell through load measurement, make the admission decision for services through intelligent access control and call admission control, and relieve congestion in a cell.
2.1 Load Control in Different Scenarios
Depending on the different phases of UE access, different load control functions are used, as shown in the following figure.
Figure 2-1 Load control functions in different UE access phases
The load control functions are applied to different UE access phases as follows:
Before UE access: Potential User Control (PUC)
During UE access: Intelligent Access Control (IAC) and Call Admission Control (CAC)
After UE access: Inter-Frequency Load Balancing Based on Configurable Load Threshold(CLB), intra-frequency Load Balancing (LDB), Load Reshuffling (LDR), and Overload Control (OLC)
The following sections provide detailed information about the load control functions performed in the different UE access phases.
2.2 Functions of Load Control
Load control is implemented on the RNC after obtaining measurement reports from the NodeBs.

Figure 2-2 Load control function in the WCDMA system
The load control functions are described as follows:
PUC
The function of PUC is to balance traffic load among cells on different frequencies. The RNC uses PUC to modify cell selection and reselection parameters, and broadcasts them through system information. In this way, UEs are directed to the lightly loaded cells. The UEs can be in idle mode, CELL_FACH state, CELL_PCH state, or URA_PCH state.
IAC
The function of IAC is to increase the access success rate with the current QoS guaranteed through rate negotiation, queuing, preemption, and directed retry decision (DRD). For details about DRD, see Directed Retry Decision Feature Parameter Description.
CAC
The function of CAC is to decide whether to accept resource requests from UEs, such as access, reconfiguration, and handover requests, depending on the resource status of the cell.
For details about CAC, see Call Admission Control Feature Parameter Description.
CLB
The function of CLB is to initiate the procedure of inter-frequency load balancing when a cell is not congested, ensuring load balancing among cells. This function supports intra- and inter-RNC load balancing. CLB may occur before LDR. That is, the RNC can perform inter-frequency load balancing before a cell is congested.
LDB
The function of intra-frequency LDB is to balance the cell load between intra-frequency neighboring cells to provide better resource usage. When the load of a cell increases, the cell reduces its coverage to lighten its load. When the load of a cell decreases, the cell extends its coverage so that some traffic is sent from its neighboring cells to it.
LDR
The function of LDR is to reduce the cell load when the cell enters the basic congestion state. The purpose of LDR is to increase the access success rate by taking the following actions:
− Load-based inter-frequency handover
− BE service rate reduction
− QoS renegotiation for uncontrollable real-time services
− Load-based CS inter-RAT handover
− Load-based PS inter-RAT handover
− AMR voice service rate reduction
− Code reshuffling

− MBMS power reduction
− PS inter-RAT handover from UMTS to LTE
OLC
The function of OLC is to reduce the cell load rapidly when the cell is overloaded. The purpose of OLC is to ensure the system stability and the QoS of most UEs in the following ways:
− Restricting the Transport Format (TF) of the BE service
− Switching BE services to common channels
− Adjusting the maximum transmit power of FACHs
− Releasing some RABs

2.3 Priorities Involved in Load Control
Different types of priorities are used in load control to preferentially ensure the QoS of the services or users with high priorities.
The priorities involved in load control are user priority, integrated radio access bearer (RAB) priority, and integrated user priority.
2.3.1 User Priority
User priorities are adopted to provide differentiated services for users. For ease of application, the RNC maps the 15 levels of Allocation/Retention Priority (ARP) that is carried in the RAB ASSIGNMENT REQUEST message from the core network (CN) onto three user priorities, that is, gold (high priority), silver (medium priority), and bronze (low priority). The relationship between user priority and ARP can be set by running the SET UUSERPRIORITY command; the typical relationship is provided in Table 2-2.

If ARP is not received in messages from the Iu interface, the user priority is regarded as copper.
2.3.2 Integrated RAB Priority
The priority of an RAB is determined by its traffic class, ARP, and carrier type. Such a priority is called integrated RAB priority. When resources are insufficient, services with the highest integrated priority are preferentially processed.
The values of integrated RAB priority are set according to the integrated priority configuration reference parameter (PriorityReference):
If PriorityReference is set to Traffic Class, the integrated priority abides by the following rules:
− Traffic classes: conversational > streaming > interactive > background
− Services of the same traffic class: priority based on ARP, that is, ARP1 > ARP2 > ARP3 > ... > ARP14 > ARP15
− Service of the same traffic class and ARP (only for interactive services): priority based on Traffic Handling Priority (THP) that is carried in the RAB ASSIGNMENT REQUEST message, that is, THP1 > THP2 > THP3 > ... > THP14 > THP15
− Services of the same traffic class, ARP and THP (only for interactive services): High Speed Packet Access (HSPA) or Dedicated Channel (DCH) service preferred depending on CarrierTypePriorInd.
If PriorityReference is set to ARP, the integrated priority abides by the following rules:
− ARP: ARP1 > ARP2 > ARP3 > ... > ARP14 > ARP15
− Services of the same ARP: priority based on traffic classes, that is, conversational > streaming > interactive > background
− Only for the interactive service of the same ARP value: priority based on Traffic Handling Priority (THP), that is, THP1 > THP2 > THP3 > ... > THP14 > THP15
− Services of the same ARP, traffic class and THP (only for interactive services): HSPA or DCH service preferred depending on CarrierTypePriorInd.
2.3.3 Integrated User Priority
A user may have multiple RABs, and the RABs may have different priorities. In this case, the highest priority is considered as the priority of this user. Such a priority is called integrated user priority. Integrated user priority is used in user-specific load control. For example, the selection of R99 users during preemption, the selection of users during load-based inter-frequency handover for LDR, and the selection of users during switching of BE services to common channels are performed according to the integrated user priority.

3 Load Measurement
This chapter describes the WRFD-020102 Load Measurement feature.
The load control functions, such as OLC and CAC, use load measurement values in the uplink and the downlink. A common Load Measurement (LDM) function is used to control load measurement in the uplink and the downlink separately.
Load measurement is implemented by the NodeB. The filtering of measurement quantities is implemented by the NodeB and the RNC.
3.1 Load-related Measurement Quantities
The major load-related measurement quantities are as follows:
Uplink Received Total Wideband Power (RTWP)
− When the feature WRFD-020137 Dual-Threshold Scheduling with HSUPA Interference Cancellation is not enabled, the RNC uses the measured RTWP value.
− When the feature WRFD-020137 Dual-Threshold Scheduling with HSUPA Interference Cancellation is enabled, the RNC uses the RTWP value after interference cancellation if UlIcLdcOptSwitch is set to OFF; the RNC uses the larger one between the following if UlIcLdcOptSwitch is set to ON:
a. Measured RTWP value – MaxDeltaOfTargetRoT
b. RTWP value after interference cancellation
For details about the feature WRFD-020137 Dual-Threshold Scheduling with HSUPA Interference Cancellation, see HSUPA Feature Parameter Description.
OLC always uses the measured RTWP value no matter whether the RNC uses the measured RTWP value. For details about OLC, see chapter 9 "Overload Control".
Downlink Transmitted Carrier Power (TCP)
Non-HSPA power: TCP excluding the power used for transmission on HSPA channels. For the detailed information about HSPA channels, see HSDPA Feature Parameter Description and HSUPA Feature Parameter Description.
The downlink power load state is as follows:
Light State (The downlink power load falls into the range of 0% to 30%)
Normal State (The downlink power load falls into the range of 30% to 50%)
Loaded State (The downlink power load falls into the range of 50% to 70%)
Heavy State (The downlink power load falls into the range of 70% to 95%)
Overload State (The downlink power load falls into the range of 95% to 100%)
These power load states are used to determine downlink cell load. Downlink load in an HSDPA cell is the proportion of non-HSPA power consumption to the maximum transmit power of this cell (MaxTxPower). Downlink load in an R99 cell is the proportion of TCP to the maximum transmit power of this cell.
Provided Bit Rate (PBR) on HS-DSCH. For details about PBR, see 3GPP 25.321.
Power Requirement for GBR (GBP) on HS-DSCH: minimum power required to ensure the GBR on HS-DSCH
PBR on E-DCH Light State, Normal State, Loaded State, Heavy State, Overload State
Received Scheduled E-DCH Power Share (RSEPS): power of the E-DCH scheduling service in the serving cell
Uplink total load: sum of R99 service load, HSUPA service load, and control channel load. Measuring the uplink total load depends on the NodeB hardware.

Uplink minimum guaranteed load: sum of R99 service load, HSUPA service load required by the HSUPA GBR, and control channel load. Measuring the uplink minimum guaranteed load depends on the NodeB hardware.
The HSUPA GBR is calculated as follows:
− If the function uplink enhanced L2 is disabled, GBR = max (bit rate of one RLC PDU, GBR).
− If the function uplink enhanced L2 is enabled, GBR = max (bit rate of the smallest RLC PDU, GBR).
The NodeB measures the major quantities related to load control. After layer 1 and layer 3 filtering, the measurement values are reported to the RNC through the COMMON MEASUREMENT REPORT message.
The RNC performs smooth filtering of the measurement values reported from the NodeB and then obtains the measurement values, which further serve as data input for the load control algorithms.
The RNC calculates the actual uplink load based on the filtered RTWP, uplink total load, and uplink minimum guaranteed load. The actual uplink load is one of the factors for the uplink load-related algorithms.
When one base station uses multiple antennas, these antennas may cause interference to each other. If antenna interference is imbalanced or if some antennas become invalid, the measured RTWP and uplink load may be inaccurate. In this situation, the anti-imbalance of the different antenna algorithm can be used to correct the inaccurate measurement results and reflect the actual cell load. In this way, system capacity and network coverage can be better balanced. This algorithm helps address shrinking uplink coverage and reduced system capacity in multi-antenna scenarios.
Uplink load measurement involves the measurement of RSEPS, uplink total load, and uplink minimum guaranteed load. The anti-imbalance of the different antenna algorithm is controlled by the ANTIANTENNAIMBALANCESW parameter on the NodeB side.
Figure 3-1 shows the LDM procedure.

3.2 Reporting Period
The NodeB periodically reports each measurement quantity to the RNC. The following table lists the reporting period parameters for setting different measurement quantities.

D is the reported measurement value.
Layer 1 filtering is not standardized by protocols and it depends on vendor equipment. Layer 3 filtering is standardized. The filtering effect is controlled by a higher layer. The alpha filtering that applies to layer 3 filtering is calculated according to the following formula:
where
Fn is the new post-filtering measurement value.
Fn-1 is the last post-filtering measurement value.
Mn is the new measurement value from the physical layer.
α = (1/2)k/2
, k is the measure filter coefficient which is specified by the following parameters.
− For load control algorithms (excluding OLC), k is specified by the UlBasicCommMeasFilterCoeff or DlBasicCommMeasFilterCoeff parameter.
− For OLC algorithm, k is specified by the UlOlcMeasFilterCoeff or DlOlcMeasFilterCoeff parameter.
3.3.2 Smooth Filtering on the RNC Side
After the RNC receives the measurement report, it filters the measurement value using the smooth window method.
Assuming that the reported measurement value is Qn and that the length of the smooth window is N, the filtered measurement value is
LDM must apply different smooth window length and measurement periods to PUC, CAC, LDR, and OLC to obtain appropriate filtered values.
The following table lists the smooth window length parameters for setting different functions.

GBP measurements have the same smooth window length in all related functions. The filter length for GBP measurement is specified by the HsdpaNeedPwrFilterLen parameter.
The length of the PBR smooth filter window is specified by the HsdpaPrvidBitRateFilterLen / HsupaPrvidBitRateFilterLen parameter.
CLB measurements have the same smooth window length with LDR.
3.4 Auto-Adaptive Background Noise Update Algorithm
Uplink (UL) background noises are sensitive to environmental conditions, and the fluctuation of the background noises has a negative impact on the RTWP measurement value. Therefore, the LDM function includes an auto-adaptive update algorithm to restrict the background noise within a specified range, as described here:
If the temperature in the equipment room is constant, the background noise changes slightly. In this case, the background noise requires no adjustment after initial correction.
If the temperature in the equipment room varies with the ambient temperature, the background noise changes greatly. In this case, the background noise requires auto-adaptive upgrade.
The following figure shows the flow chart of auto-adaptive background noise update, which is enabled by the BGNSwitch parameter.
BGNSwitch is set to ON by default.

The Alpha filter formula is: Fn = (1 - α) x Fn-1 + α x Mn (n≥1). For details about this formula, see section 3.3.1 "Layer 3
Filtering on the NodeB Side."
Counting threshold = (Duration of background noise)/(RTWP reporting period). The duration of background noise is used in auto-adaptive upgrade decision and is set by the BGNAdjustTimeLen parameter. For the setting of RTWP
reporting period, see section 3.2 "Reporting Period."
The procedure for auto-adaptive background noise update is as follows:
1. The RNC initializes the counter and filter that are used for auto-adaptive upgrade and sets the initial value (F0) of the filter to BackgroundNoise.
2. The RNC receives the latest RTWP measurement value and uplink total load measurement value from the physical layer.
3. The RNC checks whether the current time is within the effective period of the algorithm, that is, whether the current time is later than BgnStartTime and earlier than BgnEndTime.
If the current time is within the effective period, then:
− If BGNOptSwitch is set to OFF, Mn = the latest RTWP measurement value. The procedure goes to 4 (a).
− If BGNOptSwitch is set to ON, Mn = the latest RTWP measurement value - uplink total load measurement value. The procedure goes to 4 (b).
If the current time is not within the effective period, the RNC waits for the next RTWP measurement value and uplink total load measurement value.
The uplink total load measurement depends on the NodeB hardware. For details, see section 3.1 "Load-related Measurement Quantities" When the uplink total load measurement is invalid, background noise update is not performed. The initial value of the filter is set to the current background noise.
4. The RNC do the following:
(a). The RNC determines whether the current Equivalent Number of Users (ENU) in the cell is greater than the value of BGNEqUserNumThd:
− If the current ENU is greater than the value of BGNEqUserNumThd, the RNC infers that Mn includes other noises in addition to the background noise, and therefore it does not feed Mn to the filter. In addition, the RNC sets the counter to zero, retains the current background noise, and sets the initial value of the filter to the current background noise. The background noise update procedure ends. The RNC waits for the next RTWP measurement value and uplink total load measurement value.
− If the current ENU in the cell is smaller than or equal to the value of BGNEqUserNumThd, the RNC feeds Mn to the filter and performs the next step.
(b). The RNC determines whether the uplink total load measurement value is greater than the value of BGNULLoadThd:
− If the latest uplink total load measurement value is greater than the value of BGNULLoadThd, the RNC sets the counter to zero, retains the current background noise, and sets the initial value of the filter to the current background noise. The background noise update procedure ends. The RNC waits for the next RTWP measurement value and uplink total load measurement value.
− If the latest uplink total load measurement value is smaller than or equal to the value of BGNULLoadThd, the RNC feeds Mn to the filter and performs the next step.
5. The RNC checks whether |Mn - Fn-1| is smaller than the value of BgnAbnormalThd. If it is smaller than this threshold value, the RNC increments the counter by one, calculates Fn according to the Alpha filter formula, and performs the next step. Otherwise, the RNC waits for the next RTWP measurement value.
6. The RNC checks whether the counter reaches the counting threshold. If it reaches the counting threshold, the RNC performs the next step. Otherwise, the RNC waits for the next RTWP measurement value.

7. The RNC checks whether |Fn - BackgroundNoise| is smaller than the value of BgnAbnormalThd. The purpose is to prevent burst interference and RTWP spike. If it is smaller than the value of BgnAbnormalThd, the RNC performs the next step. Otherwise, the RNC sets the counter to zero and waits for the next RTWP measurement value.
8. The RNC checks whether |Fn - current background noise| is greater than the value of BgnUpdateThd. The purpose is to prevent frequent background noise upgrades on the Iub interface. If it is greater than the value of BgnUpdateThd, the RNC sets the current background noise to Fn, sets the counter to zero, and waits for the next RTWP measurement value. Otherwise, the RNC sets the counter to zero and waits for the next RTWP measurement value.

4 Potential User Control
This chapter describes the WRFD-020105 Potential User Control feature.
The PUC function controls the cell selection and cell reselection of a UE that is in idle mode, in the CELL_FACH state, CELL_PCH state, or URA_PCH state and prevents the UE from camping on a heavily loaded cell.
The PUC is valid only for inter-frequency cells, and it takes effect only in the downlink.
Figure 4-1 shows the PUC procedure.
Figure 4-1 PUC procedure
The PUC function is enabled only when the PUC sub-parameter of the NBMLdcAlgoSwitch parameter is set to 1.
For a cell not supporting DC-HSDPA, the RNC periodically monitors the downlink load of the cell.
If the cell load is higher than the upper threshold (SpucHeavy) plus the load level division hysteresis (SpucHyst), the cell load is considered heavy.
If the cell load is lower than the lower threshold (SpucLight) minus SpucHyst, the cell load is considered light.
For a cell supporting DC-HSDPA, the RNC concurrently monitors the load state of each single cell and load state of the cell group.
The checking of load state of a single cell is the same as that of a cell not supporting DC-HSDPA.
The checking of load state of the cell group is as follows:
− If the load of the two cells is higher than their upper thresholds (SpucHeavy) plus their load level division hysteresis (SpucHyst), the load of the cell group is considered heavy.
− If the load of the two cells is lower than their lower thresholds (SpucLight) minus their load level division hysteresis (SpucHyst), the load of the cell group is considered light.
The load state of a cell supporting DC-HSDPA is determined based on the following table.

The states of a cell load are heavy, normal, and light, as shown in Table 4-1.
Table 4-1 Cell load states
Based on the cell load, the PUC works as follows:
If the cell load becomes heavy, the PUC modifies cell selection and reselection parameters and broadcasts them through system information. In this way, the PUC leads UEs to the lightly loaded neighboring cells.
If the cell load becomes normal, the PUC uses the cell selection and reselection parameters configured on the RNC LMT.
If the cell load becomes light, the PUC modifies cell selection and reselection parameters and broadcasts them through system information. In this way, the PUC leads UEs to this cell.
The variables related to cell selection and reselection are Qoffset1(s,n) (load level offset), Qoffset2(s,n) (load level offset), and Sintersearch (start threshold for inter-frequency cell reselection). The following table describes PUC-related variables and their impacts on UEs.

Item Description
Implementation The NodeB periodically reports the transmit power of the cell, and the PUC periodically triggers the following activities:
Assessing the cell load level based on the non-HSPA power and HS-DSCH GBP
Setting Sintersearch, Qoffset1(s,n), and Qoffset2(s,n) based on the cell load level
Updating the parameters in system information SIB3 and SIB11
Adjustment Based on the characteristics of inter-frequency cell selection and reselection, the UE makes the corresponding adjustments:
Sintersearch
− When this value is increased by the serving cell, the UE starts inter-frequency cell reselection ahead of schedule.
− When this value is decreased by the serving cell, the UE delays inter-frequency cell reselection.
Qoffset1(s,n): applies to R (reselection) rule with CPICH RSCP
− When this value is increased by the serving cell, the UE has a lower probability of selecting a neighboring cell.
− When this value is decreased by the serving cell, the UE has a higher probability of selecting a neighboring cell.
Qoffset2(s,n): applies to R (reselection) rule with CPICH Ec/Io
− When this value is increased by the serving cell, the UE has a lower probability of selecting a neighboring cell.
− When this value is decreased by the serving cell, the UE has a higher probability of selecting a neighboring cell.
Depending on the load status of the serving cell, the cell reselection variable Sintersearch is adjusted up or down or kept unchanged. Changes to the variable Sintersearch are made as shown in Table 4-3.

5 Intelligent Access Control
5.1 Overview of Intelligent Access Control
IAC is used to increase the access success rate, that is, RRC connection success rate and RAB setup success rate.
There are two types of IAC, namely, IAC for RRC connection processing and IAC for RAB connection processing.
IAC for RRC connection processing is used to select a suitable cell for a UE to access through redirection and RRC DRD. It also implements load balancing and service steering.
IAC for RAB connection processing is used to select a suitable cell for a UE to access through DRD and CAC. It also implements load balancing and service steering. Features such as preemption, queuing, and low-rate access are used to further improve the RAB setup success rate.
In addition, IAC provides differentiated services for users with different priorities. For example, when the system resources are insufficient, procedures such as direct admission, preemption, and redirection can be performed to ensure the successful access of emergency calls to the network.
Figure 5-1 shows a typical procedure for service access control.

As shown in Figure 5-1, the procedure for service access includes the procedures for RRC connection setup and RAB setup. The successful setup of the RRC connection is one of the prerequisites for the RAB setup.
During the RRC connection processing, the RNC performs the following steps.
1. RRC redirection based on distance (only for UE-originating AMR services). For details, see section 5.2.3 "Inter-RAT RRC Redirection Based on Distance". If the RNC decides to obtain UE access from another cell, it sends an RRC connection reject message to the UE; otherwise, the RNC performs the next step.
2. RRC redirection for service steering. For details, see section 5.2.4 "RRC Redirection for Service Steering."
− If the RNC decides to obtain UE access from the current cell, it then makes a resource-based admission decision. If the resource-based admission fails, the RNC performs DRD and redirection.
− If the RNC decides to obtain UE access from another cell, it then sends an RRC connection reject message to the UE. The message carries the information about the cell and instructs the UE to set up an RRC connection to the cell.
For details, see section 5.2 "IAC During RRC Connection Setup."
During the RAB connection processing, the RNC performs the following steps:
3. Performs inter-frequency DRD to select a suitable cell for service steering or load balancing. For details about DRD, see Directed Retry Decision Feature Parameter Description.
4. Performs rate negotiation according to the service requested by the UE. For details, see section 5.4 "Rate Negotiation at Admission Control."
5. Makes cell resource-based admission decision. If the admission is successful, UE access is granted. Otherwise, the RNC performs the next step. For details about admission decision, see Call Admission Control Feature Parameter Description.
6. Selects a suitable cell, according to the inter-frequency DRD, from the cells where no admission attempt has been made, and then performs step 7. If all the attempts fail, the RNC performs the next step.
7. Selects a suitable cell according to the inter-RAT DRD. If the inter-RAT admission is successful, UE access is granted in the inter-RAT cell. If the inter-RAT DRD fails or is not supported, the RNC performs the next step.
8. Makes a preemption attempt. For details about preemption, see section 5.6 "Preemption." If the preemption is successful, UE access is granted. If the preemption fails or is not supported, the RNC performs the next step.
9. Makes a queuing attempt. For details about queuing, see section 5.7 "Queuing."
10. ." If the queuing is successful, UE access is granted. If the queuing fails or is not supported, the RNC performs the next step.
11. Performs low-rate access. For details about low-rate access, see section 5.8 "Low-Rate Access of the PS BE Service." If the low-rate access is admitted, UE access is granted. If the low-rate access is unsuccessful, the RNC performs the next step.
12. Rejects UE access.
After the admission attempts of an HSPA service request fail in all candidate cells, the service falls back to the DCH. Then, the service reattempts to access the network.

5.2 IAC During RRC Connection Setup
5.2.1 Procedure of IAC During RRC Connection Setup
Before a new service is admitted to the network, an RRC connection must be set up.
As shown in Figure 5-2, when the switch DrSwitch: DR_RRC_DRD_SWITCH is set to ON, the RRC connection setup procedure is performed as follows:
Inter-RAT RRC redirection based on weak coverage is controlled by the switch PerfEnhanceSwitch: PERFENH_RRC_WEAK_REDIR_SWITCH, not by the switch DrSwitch: DR_RRC_DRD_SWITCH.

After receiving an RRC CONNECTION REQUEST message from the UE, the RNC performs inter-RAT RRC redirection based on weak coverage when PERFENH_RRC_WEAK_REDIR_SWITCH under the PerfEnhanceSwitch parameter is selected. If this check box is not selected, the RNC performs the RRC redirection based on distance (only for UE-originating AMR services). For details, see section 5.2.3 "RRC Redirection based on Distance". If the RNC decides to obtain UE access from another cell, it sends an RRC connection reject message to the UE; otherwise, the RNC performs the next step.
Then, the RNC uses the RRC redirection algorithm for service steering and Macro & Micro Joint Inter-Frequency Redirection to decide whether the UE can access the network from the current cell:
If the UE can access the network from the current cell according to the decision result, the RNC uses the CAC algorithm to decide whether an RRC connection can be set up between the UE and the current cell.
− If the RRC connection can be set up between the UE and the current cell, the RNC sends an RRC CONNECTION SETUP message to the UE.
− If the RRC connection cannot be set up between the UE and the current cell, the RNC attempts to select a cell for RRC connection setup through RRC DRD. If the RRC DRD fails, RRC redirection will be performed.
If the UE needs to access the network from another cell according to the decision result, the RNC sends an RRC CONNECTION REJECT message to the UE. The message carries the information about this cell.
DrSwitch: DR_RRC_DRD_SWITCH is the general switch of the following six algorithms:
Inter-RAT RRC Redirection Based on Distance
Inter-Frequency RRC Redirection Based on Distance
RRC Redirection for Service Steering
Macro & Micro Joint Inter-frequency Redirection
RRC DRD
RRC Redirection After DRD Failure
Before enabling the six algorithms, turn on the DrSwitch: DR_RRC_DRD_SWITCH.

5.2.2 Inter-RAT RRC Redirection Based on Weak Coverage
In weak-coverage areas, the UE access success rate is low and the call drop possibility is high. In areas where the GSM coverage is better than the UMTS coverage, using inter-RAT RRC redirection based on weak coverage can redirect UEs from the UMTS to the GSM network to improve the UE access success rate and reduce the call drop rate.
Inter-RAT RRC redirection based on weak coverage is recommended when there is only a small proportion of UEs that do not support inter-RAT redirections. The parameter PerfEnhanceSwitch: PERFENH_RRC_WEAK_REDIR_SWITCH specifies whether to enable inter-RAT RRC redirection based on weak coverage.
The procedure for inter-RAT RRC redirection based on weak coverage is as follows:
1. Upon receiving an RRC CONNECTION REQUEST message from the UE, the RNC checks the setting of PerfEnhanceSwitch: PERFENH_RRC_WEAK_REDIR_SWITCH.

− If PERFENH_RRC_WEAK_REDIR_SWITCH under the PerfEnhanceSwitch parameter is not selected, the RNC does not perform inter-RAT RRC redirection based on weak coverage. The RRC connection setup request is then processed in the current cell.
− If PERFENH_RRC_WEAK_REDIR_SWITCH under the PerfEnhanceSwitch parameter is selected, the procedure goes to the next step.
2. The RNC obtains the Ec/N0 value of the current cell from the RACH Measurement Report IE in the RRC CONNECTION REQUEST message.
− If the Ec/N0 value is greater than or equal to the value of WeakCovRrcRedirEcNoThs, the RNC does not perform inter-RAT RRC redirection based on weak coverage. The RRC connection setup request is then processed in the current cell.
− If the Ec/N0 value is smaller than the value of WeakCovRrcRedirEcNoThs, the procedure goes to the next step.
3. The RNC sends the UE an RRC CONNECTION REJECT message containing information on the neighboring GSM cells of the current cell.
If the current cell does not have any neighboring GSM cell or the IE "RACH Measurement Report" does not contain the Ec/N0 value, inter-RAT RRC redirection based on weak coverage is not performed.
5.2.3 RRC Redirection based on Distance
Inter-RAT RRC Redirection Based on Distance
This section describes the WRFD-020401 Inter-RAT Redirection Based on Distance feature.
In actual situations, a UE may receive signals from a distant cell and subsequently access the cell. However, the cells that are adjacent to this cell are not configured as its neighboring cells. If the UE moves out of this cell, call drops may occur. To solve this problem, RRC Inter-RAT redirection based on distance is introduced.
The RRC Inter-RAT redirection based on distance technique estimates the distance between the UE and the cell center by considering the propagation delay. Based on the estimation result, the RNC checks whether to perform RRC Inter-RAT redirection. The propagation delay is the one-way propagation delay of the radio signal from the UE to the NodeB. The NodeB measures the propagation delay and then reports it to the RNC. The propagation delay is directly proportional to the distance between the UE and the NodeB.
The switch of RRC Inter-RAT redirection based on distance can be set through the RedirSwitch parameter. RRC Inter-RAT redirection based on distance is applicable only to the UE-originating AMR services.
The procedure for RRC Inter-RAT redirection based on distance is as follows:
1. Upon receiving an RRC CONNECTION REQUEST message from the UE, the RNC checks whether the requested service is the UE-originating AMR service. If yes, the RNC performs the next step. Otherwise, the RNC does not perform RRC Inter-RAT redirection based on distance, and handles the RRC connection setup request of the UE in the current cell.
2. The RNC obtains the propagation delay from the NodeB and compares it with DelayThs.
− If the propagation delay is greater than DelayThs, the RNC performs the next step.
− If the propagation delay is equal to or less than DelayThs, the RNC does not perform RRC Inter-RAT redirection based on distance, and handles the RRC connection setup request of the UE in the current cell.
3. The RNC checks the load status of the current cell and checks whether to perform RRC Inter-RAT redirection based on distance by considering the load status.

− If the cell is in the normal state, the RNC generates a random value ranging from 0 to 1 and compares the value with the RedirFactorOfNorm parameter. If the random value is equal to or smaller than the parameter, the RNC performs the next step. Otherwise, the RNC does not perform RRC Inter-RAT redirection based on distance, and handles the RRC connection setup request of the UE in the current cell.
− If the cell is in the basic congestion state or is overloaded, the RNC generates a random value ranging from 0 to 1 and compares the value with the RedirFactorOfLDR parameter. If the random value is equal to or smaller than the parameter, the RNC performs the next step. Otherwise, the RNC does not perform RRC Inter-RAT redirection based on distance, and handles the RRC connection setup request of the UE in the current cell.
4. The RNC sends the UE an RRC CONNECTION REJECT message containing information on the neighboring GSM cells of the current cell.
If the current cell does not have any neighboring GSM cell, the UE spontaneously selects a proper cell to access.
Inter-Frequency RRC Redirection Based on Distance
This section describes the WRFD-02040005 Inter-Frequency Redirection Based on Distance feature.
Excessive cell coverage may occur in UMTS networks. This is especially the case in cells operating in UMTS 900 MHz, because such cells have strong coverage abilities. If a UE moves out of a UMTS cell with excessive coverage during cell access and no neighboring GSM cells are configured for this cell, the RRC setup for the UE fails. Inter-frequency RRC redirection based on distance, which is designed to address excessive coverage issues, can solve this problem. Inter-frequency RRC redirection based on distance applies only to UE-originating services.
Upon receiving an RRC CONNECTION REQUEST message from the UE, the RNC obtains the propagation delay of the UE and compares it with the propagation delay threshold for inter-frequency RRC redirections. When inter-frequency RRC redirection based on distance is enabled and the propagation delay of the UE is greater than the threshold, the RNC considers that the UE is in a cell with excessive coverage, and it triggers inter-frequency RRC redirection based on distance. The InterFreqRedirSwitch parameter specifies whether inter-frequency RRC redirection based on distance is enabled.
Figure 5-3 shows the procedure for inter-frequency RRC redirection based on distance.

Figure 5-3 Procedure for inter-frequency RRC redirection based on distance
The procedure for inter-frequency RRC redirection based on distance is as follows:
1. Upon receiving an RRC CONNECTION REQUEST message from the UE, the RNC checks whether InterFreqRedirSwitch is set to ON.
If InterFreqRedirSwitch is set to OFF, the RNC does not perform inter-frequency RRC redirection based on distance. The RRC connection setup request is then processed in the current cell.

If InterFreqRedirSwitch is set to ON, the procedure goes to the next step.
2. The RNC obtains the propagation delay of the UE from the RRC CONNECTION REQUEST message and compares it with the propagation delay limit for inter-frequency RRC redirections. The propagation delay threshold is specified by the InterFreqRedirDelayThd parameter.
If the propagation delay of the UE is smaller than or equal to InterFreqRedirDelayThd, the RNC does not perform inter-frequency RRC redirection based on distance. The RRC connection setup request is then processed in the current cell.
If the propagation delay of the UE is greater than InterFreqRedirDelayThd, the procedure goes to the next step.
3. The RNC checks the load status of the current cell.
If the current cell is experiencing LDR (that is, the cell is in the basic congestion state in the uplink or downlink), the RNC generates a random number between 0 and 1 and compares it with the inter-frequency redirection factor for LDR (specified by InterFreqRedirFactorOfLDR).
− If the random number is smaller than or equal to InterFreqRedirFactorOfLDR, the procedure goes to the next step.
− If the random number is greater than InterFreqRedirFactorOfLDR, the RNC does not perform inter-frequency RRC redirection based on distance. The RRC connection setup request is then processed in the current cell.
If the current cell is not experiencing LDR, the RNC generates a random number between 0 and 1 and compares it with the inter-frequency redirection factor for the normal state (specified by InterFreqRedirFactorOfNorm).
− If the random number is smaller than or equal to InterFreqRedirFactorOfNorm, the procedure goes to the next step.
− If the random number is greater than InterFreqRedirFactorOfNorm, the RNC does not perform inter-frequency RRC redirection based on distance. The RRC connection setup request is then processed in the current cell.
4. The RNC sends the UE an RRC CONNECTION REJECT message that contains the target frequency number for redirection.
The RedirUARFCNUplinkInd parameter specifies whether to manually configure the uplink target frequency number for redirection.
− If RedirUARFCNUplinkInd is set to TRUE, the uplink target frequency number is set by the RedirUARFCNUplink parameter.
− If RedirUARFCNUplinkInd is set to FALSE, the uplink target frequency number is automatically configured according to the binding relationship between uplink and downlink frequency numbers.
The downlink target frequency number is specified by the RedirUARFCNDownlink parameter.
The RedirBandInd parameter determines the validity of the uplink and downlink target frequency numbers. If the target frequency numbers are out of the range of the bands specified by RedirBandInd, a prompt displays to inform users. If RedirBandInd is set to DependOnNCell, the target cell must be under the same RNC as the current cell and these two cells must be on the same band.
5. After inter-frequency RRC redirection based on distance is complete, the RNC prevents ping-pong redirections regardless of whether the redirection is successful.
If PERFENH_RRC_REDIR_PROTECT_SWITCH under the PerfEnhanceSwitch parameter in the SET UCORRMPARA command is selected, the RNC prevents ping-pong redirections based on service, Iur-g load, and distance. If a UE that has been redirected to another cell attempts to access the original cell, it is directly admitted.
If PERFENH_RRC_REDIR_PROTECT_SWITCH under the PerfEnhanceSwitch parameter in the SET UCORRMPARA command is not selected, the RNC does not prevent ping-pong redirections.

5.2.4 RRC Redirection for Service Steering
Overview
This section describes the WRFD-020120 Service Steering and Load Sharing in RRC Connection Setup feature.
The RRC redirection for service steering is used to enable the successful RRC connection setup by selecting an appropriate cell for the UE based on the requested service. This algorithm is not applicable to combined services.
During the RRC connection setup, the RNC implements service steering between inter-frequency or inter-RAT cells according to the service type requested by the UE. In addition, the RNC considers the load of the cell for access and the redirection factors to control the degree of load sharing. Therefore, this function is also called service steering and load sharing in RRC connection setup.
Procedure of RRC Redirection for Service Steering
The procedure for RRC redirection for service steering is as follows:
1. The RNC obtains the information about the service requested by the UE and the capability of the UE.
− If the DR_RRC_DRD_SWITCH of the parameter DrSwitch is set to 1, the RNC determines the service type requested by the UE. If the RNC succeeds in determining the service type requested by the UE and the switch of RRC direction for service steering (RedirSwitch) is set to ONLY_TO_INTER_FREQUENCY or ONLY_TO_INTER_RAT, the RNC performs the next step. Otherwise, the RNC handles the RRC connection setup request of the UE in the current cell.
− If the DR_ RRC_DRD_SWITCH of the parameter DrSwitch is set to 0, the RNC handles the RRC connection setup request of the UE in the current cell.
2. Based on the setting of RedirSwitch and SCellLoadBsdRedirSwitch, the RNC takes the corresponding actions:
− If RedirSwitch is set to ONLY_TO_INTER_FREQUENCY and SCellLoadBsdRedirSwitch is set to ON,
a. If the uplink power load of the cell is lower than the value of UlLdrTrigThd multiplied by OffloadRelativeThd and the downlink power load is lower than the value of DlLdrTrigThd multiplied by OffloadRelativeThd, the RNC handles the RRC connection setup request of the UE in the current cell.
b. If the preceding conditions are not met, the RNC performs the next step.
− If RedirSwitch is set to ONLY_TO_INTER_FREQUENCY and SCellLoadBsdRedirSwitch is set to OFF, the RNC performs the next step.
The frequency information carried in the message can be set by running the SET UREDIRECTION command.
SCellLoadBsdRedirSwitch is effective when RedirSwitch is set to ONLY_TO_INTER_FREQUENCY.
The calculation method for the uplink/downlink power load of a cell is the same as that for the power load in the load reshuffling algorithm.
− If RedirSwitch is set to ONLY_TO_INTER_RAT, the RNC performs the next step.
3. Based on the cell load and the redirection factors, the RNC decides whether to perform RRC redirection for service steering.
− If the cell is in the normal state, the RNC generates a random number between 0 and 1 and compares it with the corresponding unconditional redirection factor (RedirFactorOfNorm). If the random number is smaller than this factor, the RNC performs the next step. Otherwise, the RNC handles the RRC connection setup request of the UE in the current cell.

5-11
− If the cell is in the basic congestion or overload state, the RNC generates a random number between 0 and 1 and compares it with the value of RedirFactorOfLDR. If the random number is smaller than this factor, the RNC performs the next step. Otherwise, the RNC handles the RRC connection setup request of the UE in the current cell.
4. When RedirBandInd is set to a value ranging from Band1 to Band9, the RNC takes the following actions:
− If the measured CPICH Ec/N0 is contained in the RRC CONNECTION REQUEST message and the value of CPICH Ec/N0 is larger than or equal to the value for RedirEcN0Thd, the RNC proceeds with the next step. If the value of CPICH Ec/N0 is smaller than the value for RedirEcN0Thd, the RNC processes the RRC CONNECTION REQUEST message in the current cell.
− If the measured CPICH Ec/N0 is not contained in the RRC CONNECTION REQUEST message, the RNC proceeds with the next step.
When RedirSwitch is set to ONLY_TO_INTER_FREQUENCY and RedirBandInd is set to DependOnNCell, the target cell must be an intra-band inter-frequency cell under the same RNC with the current cell and BlindHoFlag for the target cell is set to TRUE.
− If a cell in the inter-frequency neighboring cell list meets the preceding requirements, the RNC determines whether this neighboring cell is in the OLC state.
a. If this neighboring cell is in the OLC state, it cannot be the target cell of the UE. If all the neighboring cells are in the OLC state, the RNC processes the RRC CONNECTION REQUEST message in the current cell.
b. If this neighboring cell is not in the OLC state, the RNC proceeds with the next step.
− If all the cells in the inter-frequency neighboring cell list do not meet the preceding requirements, the RNC processes the RRC CONNECTION REQUEST message in the current cell.
If parameter settings do not meet the requirements in this step, the RNC skips this step and proceeds with the next step.
5. The RNC performs RRC redirection.
− If RedirSwitch is set to ONLY_TO_INTER_FREQUENCY, the RNC sends an RRC CONNECTION REJECT message to the UE, redirecting the UE to the target frequency carried in the message.
− If RedirSwitch is set to ONLY_TO_INTER_RAT, the RNC sends an RRC CONNECTION REJECT message to the UE, redirecting the UE to inter-RAT neighboring cells carried in the message.
Service Identification Rule
The RNC identifies requested services according to the relevant information elements (IEs) in the RRC Connection Request message received from the UE. The identification is successful only when all the conditions described in Table 5-2 are met. Otherwise, the identification fails.
TerminTrfcBsdRedirSwitch specifies whether to identify terminated services.
If TerminTrfcBsdRedirSwitch is set to ON, the RNC identifies both originated services and terminated services.
If TerminTrfcBsdRedirSwitch is set to OFF, the RNC identifies only originated services.

PS R99 and PS HSPA services for UEs of the REL-5 version cannot be identified by the RNC because these UEs do not carry the Domain indicator, Call type, or UE capability indication IEs in the RRC CONNECTION REQUEST message.
UEs of REL-5 and earlier versions do not carry the Domain indicator, Call type, or UE capability indication IEs. Therefore, the RNC cannot differentiate between AMR services and VP services. The RNC implements VP service redirection the same way it implements AMR service redirection.
5.2.5 RRC DRD
If the UE fails to access the current cell, the RNC performs RRC DRD. The purpose is to instruct the UE to set up an RRC connection in an inter-frequency neighboring cell with better signal quality.
For details about RRC DRD, see Directed Retry Decision Feature Parameter Description.
5.2.6 RRC Redirection After DRD Failure
This section describes the WRFD-02040003 Inter System Redirect feature.
The purpose of RRC redirection after DRD failure is to instruct the UE to set up RRC connection in an inter-frequency or an inter-RAT cell.
WCDMA RAN
Load Control 5 Intelligent Access Control

5-13
When the RRC DRD fails, the RNC performs RRC redirection as follows:
The RNC selects another frequency for redirection based on the setting of the ReDirBandInd parameter. If the ReDirBandInd parameter is set to a specific band, the RNC selects the configured target frequency number and redirects the UE. The target frequency number is configured by the following parameters: ReDirUARFCNUplinkInd, ReDirUARFCNUplink, ReDirUARFCNDownlink.
If the ReDirBandInd parameter is set to DependOnNCell, the RNC selects the target frequency number from the target frequency numbers corresponding to the intra-band inter-frequency neighboring cells of the current cell. In addition, the RNC excludes the target frequency numbers corresponding to the cells that have carried out inter-frequency RRC DRD attempts.
If more than one target frequency number is available, the RNC selects a target frequency number randomly. Then, the RNC sends an RRC CONNECTION REJECT message to the UE, redirecting the UE to the selected target frequency carried in the message.
If no target frequency number is available, the RNC continues to perform RRC redirection according to the setting of the ConnectFailRrcRedirSwitch parameter.
− If ConnectFailRrcRedirSwitch is set to Only_To_Inter_Frequency, the RRC connection setup fails.
− If ConnectFailRrcRedirSwitch is set to Allowed_To_Inter_RAT and there is a neighboring GSM cell, the RNC sends the information about the neighboring GSM cell to the UE and redirects the UE to GSM system. If ConnectFailRrcRedirSwitch is set to Allowed_To_Inter_RAT but there is no neighboring GSM cell, the UE automatically searches for GSM cells and then selects one of them for RRC connection setup attempts.
5.2.7 FACH Power Control of RRC phase
During the RRC connection setup procedure, coverage in the live network may be imbalanced and UEs in weak coverage areas cannot correctly parse messages from the network. This leads to RRC connection setup failures. To address this problem, the FACH power control of RRC phase function is introduced to increase the downlink transmit power of the FACH so that UEs can parse messages more accurately.
When a UE attempts to access a cell, the RNC checks the cause value and the Ec/N0 value contained in the RRC CONNETCTION REQUEST message. The RRC connection setup cause is specified by the RrcCause parameter. The RNC then compares the Ec/N0 value with the value for FACHPower4RRCRepEcNoThd corresponding to the RrcCause parameter.
If the value of Ec/N0 is smaller than the value for FACHPower4RRCRepEcNoThd, the FACH power control of RRC phase function is triggered. This function increases the FACH transmit power as follows:
If the T381 timer expires, the RNC increases the downlink transmit power of the FACH when resending the RRC CONNECTION SETUP message to the UE. The times for resending this message are determined by the N381 timer.
If the T300 timer expires, after the UE resends an RRC CONNETCTION REQUEST message, the RNC increases the downlink transmit power of the FACH when sending the RRC CONNECTION SETUP message. The times for resending this message are determined by the N300 timer.
The FACH downlink transmit power is specified by the MaxFachPower parameter. If the FACH downlink transmit power exceeds the OLC threshold (DlOlcTrigThd), the RNC will not adjust the FACH downlink transmit power.
The FACH is a common channel. When the FACH power control of RRC phase function is enabled, the FACH downlink transmit power for UEs with no power increase requirements is the difference between the MaxFachPower and OffsetFACHPower parameters.

5.3 Directed Retry Decision
Traffic steering and load sharing during RAB setup will be performed through DRD.
During the RAB connection processing, non-periodic DRD is used to select a suitable cell for a UE to access according to the HSPA+ technological satisfaction, service priority, and cell load. Non-periodic DRD is performed during RAB setup, RAB modification, or DCCC channel reconfiguration.
Non-periodic DRD involves inter-frequency DRD and inter-RAT DRD.
By using inter-frequency DRD, the RNC selects the qualified candidate cells by considering HSPA+ technological satisfaction, cell service priority, and cell load. Then, the RNC sequences the candidate cells according to the priority. The UE tries accessing the cells in order of priority from higher to lower, until it is admitted or it fails to access any cell.
If the UE fails to access any cell in the case of inter-frequency DRD, inter-RAT DRD will be triggered.
For details about non-periodic DRD, see Directed Retry Decision Feature Parameter Description.
5.4 Rate Negotiation at Admission Control
Rate negotiation at admission control (WRFD-010507 Rate Negotiation at Admission Control) includes MBR negotiation, GBR negotiation, initial rate negotiation, and target rate negotiation.
For a streaming service, the RNC performs resource admission based on the negotiated MBR.
For a new PS BE service, the RNC performs resource admission based on the negotiated initial rate.
For AMR and AMR-WB speech services in the CS domain, see AMR Feature Parameter Description.
5.4.1 PS MBR Negotiation
If the IE "Alternative RAB Parameter Values" is present in the RANAP RAB ASSIGNMENT REQUEST or the RELOCATION REQUEST message when a PS service is set up, reconfigured, or handed over, then the RNC and the CN negotiate the rate according to the UE capability to obtain the MBR while ensuring a proper QoS.
For the PS streaming service, when the PS_STREAM_IU_QOS_NEG_SWITCH sub-parameter of the PsSwitch parameter is set to 1, the Iu QoS negotiation function is enabled for MBR negotiation.
For the PS BE service:
− When both the PS_BE_IU_QOS_NEG_SWITCH and PS_BE_STRICT_IU_QOS_NEG_SWITCH sub-parameters of the PsSwitch parameter are set to 1, the Iu QoS negotiation function is enabled, and the RNC determines the MBR of Iu QoS negotiation based on the information about UE capability, cell capability and rate requested by the CN.
− When PS_BE_IU_QOS_NEG_SWITCH is set to 1 and PS_BE_STRICT_IU_QOS_NEG_SWITCH is set to 0, the Iu QoS negotiation function is enabled, and the RNC determines the MBR of Iu QoS negotiation based on the maximum rate supported by the UE rather than the cell capability and other settings.
5.4.2 PS GBR Negotiation
During the setup, reconfiguration, or handover of a PS real-time service, if the PS_STREAM_IU_QOS_NEG_SWITCH sub-parameter of the PsSwitch parameter is set to 1, the RNC will negotiate with the CN about the GBR as follows:
If the IE "Type of Alternative Guaranteed Bit Rate Information" in the RAB ASSIGNMENT REQUEST message is set to "unspecified", the GBR negotiation will not be performed. In such a case, the GBR

contained in the IE "RAB Parameters" of the RAB ASSIGNMENT REQUEST message is used. In addition, the subsequent RAB ASSIGNMENT RESPONSE message does not contain the GBR.
If the IE "Type of Alternative Guaranteed Bit Rate Information" in the RAB ASSIGNMENT REQUEST message is set to "value range", the sole GBR contained in the IE "Alternative Guaranteed Bit Rates" is used. In addition, the subsequent RAB ASSIGNMENT RESPONSE message contains the GBR.
If the IE "Type of Alternative Guaranteed Bit Rate Information" in the RAB ASSIGNMENT REQUEST message is set to "Discrete values", the largest GBR contained in the IE "Alternative Guaranteed Bit Rates" is used. In addition, the subsequent RAB ASSIGNMENT RESPONSE message contains the GBR.
If the PS_STREAM_IU_QOS_NEG_SWITCH sub-parameter of the PsSwitch parameter is set to 0, the GBR negotiation will be not performed. In such a case, the GBR contained in the IE "RAB Parameters" of the RAB ASSIGNMENT REQUEST message is used.
For details about GBR negotiation, see 3GPP 25.413.
5.4.3 Initial Rate Negotiation
Overview
Initial rate is classified into initial admission rate and initial access rate.
Initial admission rate: The RNC allocates bandwidths based on the initial admission rate and then performs cell-resource-based admission based on the allocated bandwidths.
Initial access rate: Initial configured rate after service admission is successful, which means the current maximum data transmission rate before any other reconfiguration.
For PS BE services, the RNC performs initial rate negotiation when a new service is being set up or the UE is changing from the CELL_FACH state to the CELL_DCH state. The initial rate negotiation policy varies, depending on the services carried on different channels.
Initial Rate Definition for DCH Services
For DCH services, the initial admission rate and the initial access rate are the same.
Initial rate is negotiated according to Table 5-3.
Table 5-3 Initial rate negotiation
DCCC Switch (DCCC_SWITCH)
PS BE Initial Rate Dynamic Configuration Switch (PS_BE_INIT_RATE_DYNAMIC_CFG_SWITCH)
Actual Initial Rate
ON ON In the uplink, the initial rate is the smaller one of the MBR and 384 kbit/s.
In the downlink, the initial rate is dynamically set on the basis of Ec/N0. The specific method is as follows:
When the RNC receives an RRC connection setup request, it starts the timer EcN0EffectTime.
Before the timer expires, the RNC dynamically sets the initial rate based on the Ec/N0. The value of Ec/N0 comes from the latest RACH measurement report or latest intra-frequency measurement report.
If the cell Ec/N0 reported from the UE is above the

Ec/N0 threshold (EcN0Ths), the RNC sets the actual initial rate to the smaller one of the MBR and 384 kbit/s.
Note that if the UE is in the soft handover state, the RNC sets the actual initial rate to the smaller one of the MBR and 384 kbit/s when any of the cells in the active set meets the threshold.
If the cell Ec/N0 is below or equal to the Ec/N0 threshold (EcN0Ths) or the RRC CONNECTION REQUEST message does not carry the information about Ec/N0, the RNC sets the actual initial rate to the smaller one of the MBR and the initial rate of the downlink BE service (DlBeTraffInitBitrate).
ON OFF In the uplink, the initial rate is the smaller one of the MBR and the initial rate of the uplink BE service (UlBeTraffInitBitrate).
In the downlink, the initial rate is the smaller one of the MBR and the initial rate of the downlink BE service (DlBeTraffInitBitrate).
OFF - MBR
If the DCCC function is enabled and the PS_RAB_Downsizing_Switch sub-parameter of the PsSwitch parameter is set to 1, the RNC can decrease the rate through the RAB rate decrease function when the admission based on the initial rate
fails.
The PS BE service mentioned in this section can be the single PS BE service or the PS BE service in combined services.
Initial Rate Definition for HSPA Services
For the HSUPA service,
The initial admission rate is GBR.
The initial access rate is defined as follows:
− If the DRA_HSUPA_DCCC_SWITCH sub-parameter of the DraSwitch parameter is set to 1, the initial access rate is the initial rate of the HSUPA BE service (HsupaInitialRate).
− If the DRA_HSUPA_DCCC_SWITCH sub-parameter of the DraSwitch parameter is set to 0, the initial access rate is the MBR for there will not be any rate upsizing reconfiguration when the DRA_HSUPA_DCCC_SWITCH sub-parameter of the DraSwitch parameter is set to 0.
For the HSDPA service, the initial admission rate and the initial access are both GBR.
Initial Rate Negotiation for the PS BE Service in CS+PS Combined Services
The PS BE service in CS+PS combined services has low data transmission requirements. In most cases, the PS BE service does not need to transmit data when the UE is performing CS services. If the PS BE service in CS+PS combined services has high data transmission requirements, the transmission rate of the PS BE service increases or the PS BE service is switched to an HSDPA channel. As a result, the

signaling load increases, and the CS call drop rate may also increase. The initial rate negotiation function is recommended when most PS BE services in CS+PS combined services have low data transmission requirements.
The BeInitBitrateTypeforCsPs parameter specifies the bearing policy for the PS BE service and the initial rate for the PS BE service when the UE is in the CELL_DCH state or transitions to this state. BeInitBitrateTypeforCsPs applies only to the PS BE service in CS+PS combined services in the following scenarios:
Scenario 1: The UE is in the CELL_DCH state and is processing CS services or CS+PS combined services (any PS service). Then, the UE initiates PS BE services.
Scenario 2: The UE is in the CELL_DCH state and is processing PS BE services. Then, the UE initiates CS services.
Scenario 3: The UE is in the CELL_FACH state and is processing PS BE services. Then, the UE initiates CS services. (The UE must transition to the CELL_DCH state before establishing CS services.)
Scenario 4: The UE is in the CELL_PCH state and is processing PS BE services. Then, the UE initiates CS services. (The UE must transition to the CELL_FACH or CELL_DCH state before establishing CS services.)
This section describes the initial rate negotiation function only for the PS BE service in CS+PS combined services in the preceding scenarios. For details about the initial rate negotiation function for the PS BE service in other scenarios, see "Initial Rate Definition for DCH Services" and "Initial Rate Definition for HSPA Services".
The BeInitBitrateTypeforCsPs parameter can be set to OFF, DCH 0k, DCH 8k, or DCH 8k/HSDPA.
OFF: indicates that the initial rate negotiation function is disabled for the PS BE service in CS+PS combined services in the preceding scenarios.
DCH 0k: indicates that both the initial uplink and downlink rates for the DCH are 0 kbit/s.
DCH 8k: indicates that both the initial uplink and downlink rates for the DCH are 8 kbit/s.
DCH 8k/HSDPA: indicates that the initial uplink rate for the DCH is 8 kbit/s and that downlink services are carried on HSDPA channels.
The implementation of the initial rate negotiation function for the PS BE service in CS+PS combined services varies depending on the protocol version that the UE complies with.

5.4.4 Target Rate Negotiation
For a BE service in the PS domain, if the cell resource-based admission at the initial rate fails, the RNC selects a target rate to allocate bandwidth for the service based on cell resources in following cases:
Service setup
Soft handover
DCCC rate upsizing
If the cell has sufficient code and CE resource, the RNC sets the candidate target rate to the one that matches the cell resource surplus. Then, the RNC sets the target rate to the greater one of the candidate target rate and the GBR.
In the case of DCCC rate upsizing, if the rate upsizing fails, the target rate is the greater one of the candidate target rate and the pre-upsizing DCCC rate.
5.5 Admission Decision
A radio link sends a resource request to the CAC functional module when additional resources are required. On receipt of the resource request, the CAC functional module determines whether the request can be accepted by measuring the cell load and the requested resource.
WCDMA RAN
Load Control 5 Intelligent Access Control
Draft A (2013-01-30) Huawei Proprietary and Confidential
Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.
5-21
The CAC performs the admission decision based on resources such as code resource, power resource, NodeB credit, and Iub resource. In the case of HSPA resource request, the admission decision is also based on the number of HSPA users. The admission succeeds only when the resource on which CAC is based is available.
For details about CAC, see Call Admission Control Feature Parameter Description.
5.6 Preemption
Common Preemption
This section describes the preemption algorithm in the WRFD-010505 Queuing and Pre-Emption feature.
By forcibly releasing the resources of lower-priority users, the preemption (pre-emption) function increases the access success rate of higher-priority users.
After cell/cell group resource-based admission fails, the RNC performs preemption if the following conditions are met:
The RNC receives an RAB ASSIGNMENT REQUEST message indicating that preemption is supported.
In the RAB ASSIGNMENT REQUEST message sent by the CN, the Pre-emption Capability IE specifies whether a service can trigger preemption and the Pre-emption Vulnerability IE specifies whether a service can be preempted. That is, Service priorities and the Pre-emption Capability and Pre-emption Vulnerability IEs determine whether to perform preemption.
The preemption algorithm switch (PreemptAlgoSwitch) is set to ON.
Preemption is applicable to the following scenarios:
Setup or modification of a service
Hard handover or SRNS relocation
UE state transition from CELL_FACH to CELL_DCH
The preemption procedure is as follows:
1. The RNC selects the target cell for preemption.
− For multi-carrier services (such as DC-HSDPA, DB-HSDPA, 4C-HSDPA, or DC-HSUPA services), the RNC selects the primary cell in the DC-HSDPA, DB-HSDPA, 4C-HSDPA, or DC-HSUPA cell group as the target cell.
− For non-multi-carrier services, the RNC selects the cell with the highest service priority or lightest load as the target cell.
2. The preemption algorithm determines the radio link sets to be preempted.
a. Selects SRNC UEs first. If no UEs under the SRNC are available, the algorithm selects UEs under the DRNC.
b. Sorts the preemptable UEs by integrated user priority, or sorts the preemptable RABs by integrated RAB priority.
c. Determines candidate UEs or RABs.
For RABs of streaming or BE services, if PriorityReference is set to Traffic Class and PreemptRefArpSwitch is set to ON, only the ones with lower ARP priority than the RAB to be established are selected.
For multi-carrier services, only the resource of UEs that use the target cell as the primary cell is preemptable.
WCDMA RAN
Load Control 5 Intelligent Access Control
Draft A (2013-01-30) Huawei Proprietary and Confidential
Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.
5-22
Select as many users or RABs as necessary in order to match the resources needed by the RAB to be established. When the priorities of two users or RABs are the same, the algorithm selects the user or RAB that can release the most resources.
Preemptable users or RABs must have lower priorities than RABs to be established. The type of preemptable user or RAB varies, depending on the type of resources that triggers the preemption.
The preemption algorithm checks whether the resources released by preempted UEs or RABs are sufficient for setting
up new RABs. It does not consider the remaining resources in the cell, because they may be used by other UEs during the preemption.
For the preemption triggered for power, the preempted objects can be R99 users, R99 + HSPA combined users, or HSPA RABs.
For the preemption triggered for the Iub bandwidth, the preempted objects can only be RABs.
For the preemption triggered for the credit resource, more than one user or RAB can be preempted.
For the preemption triggered for the code, only one user can be preempted.
For CS RABs with the preemption capability, the PsBERrcPreemptVulnerable parameter specifies whether RRCs can be preempted when there are no RABs to be preempted.
− If PsBERrcPreemptVulnerable is set to ON, the RRCs whose service request type is the PS BE service and RABs have not been set up can be preempted by CS RABs.
− If PsBERrcPreemptVulnerable is set to OFF, RRCs cannot be preempted.
RRCs do not have preemption attributes or priorities. Therefore, preemption attributes and priorities are not considered during the preemption.
3. The RNC releases the resources occupied by the candidate users, RABs, or RRCs.
4. The requested service directly uses the released resources to access the network without an admission decision.
For details about preemption of MBMS services, see MBMS Feature Parameter Description.
Emergency calls take priority over other common users and therefore can preempt all non-emergency services. The common preemption procedure can be performed regardless of the setting for PreemptAlgoSwitch.
When NbmWpsAlgorithmSwitch is set to ON, the wireless priority service (WPS) function is enabled. In such a case, the WPS users can trigger common preemption regardless of the setting for PreemptAlgoSwitch. WPS users take priority over emergency call users.
WPS is a National Security/Emergency Preparedness (NS/EP) voice service managed by the USA government. The
National Communications System (NCS) is authorized to manage the execution of the WPS project. The NbmWpsAlgorithmPriority parameter specifies the WPS user priority.
When enabling the common preemption function, the CE resource preemption enhancement function must also be enabled (controlled by PREEMPT_ENH_NODEB_PREEMPT_CE_SWITCH under the PreemptEnhSwitch parameter).
When CE resource admission fails due to insufficient CE resources, the CE resource preemption enhancement function can be triggered on the NodeB side to ensure the CE resource preemption success rate. However, this function may occupy CE resources reserved for RRC connection setups and handovers, reducing the handover success rate and RRC connection setup success rate. This function does not affect the handover success rate and access success rate of the preempting UEs. The probability of the handover success rate and access success rate being reduced is low. Therefore, this function does not affect the performance of the live network.
Forced Preemption
Common preemption requires that RABs have been set up or are being set up for preempting users and that preempting users have higher priorities than preemptable users. Therefore, CS services cannot trigger preemption in the RRC connection setup phase. Even in the RAB-related phases, CS services
WCDMA RAN
Load Control 5 Intelligent Access Control

may fail to preempt PS services because of insufficient priorities. When PS traffic volume is high and radio resources are insufficient, the success rate for CS service setup may decrease. To solve this problem, forced preemption is introduced. This function ensures preferred access of AMR services and a high success rate for AMR service setup.
After forced preemption is enabled, only CS conversational services can trigger preemption and only PS BE service resources can be preempted.
The forced preemption function is controlled by the following switches under the PreemptEnhSwitch parameter:
PREEMPT_ENH_CSRRC_PREEMPT_PS_SWITCH: indicates whether CS services can preempt PS service resources during the CS RRC connection setup procedure.
PREEMPT_ENH_CSRAB_PREEMPT_PS_SWITCH: indicates whether CS services can preempt PS BE service resources during the CS RAB-related procedures.
The following table describes how these two switches determine preemption.
Table 5-11 How these two switches determine preemption
PREEMPT_ENH_CSRAB_PREEMPT_PS_SWITCH
PREEMPT_ENH_CSRRC_PREEMPT_PS_SWITCH
RRC Connection Setup Phase
RAB-Related Phases
On Off CS conversational services cannot preempt PS BE service resources.
If RAB admission for CS conversational services fails, PS BE service resources can be preempted unconditionally.
On On If RRC admission for CS conversational services fails, PS BE service resources can be preempted unconditionally.
If RAB admission for CS conversational services fails, PS BE service resources can be preempted unconditionally.
Off On If RRC admission for CS conversational services fails, resources of PS BE services whose Pre-emption Vulnerability IE is set to "pre-emptable" can be preempted.
Common preemption is performed. That is, Service Priorities and the Pre-emption Capability and Pre-emption Vulnerability IEs determine whether to perform preemption.
Off Off CS conversational services cannot preempt PS BE service resources.
Common preemption is performed. That is, Service Priorities and the Pre-Emption Capability and Pre-emption Vulnerability IEs determine whether to perform preemption.

5-24
In the RRC connection setup phase, if an RRC setup request is from the CS domain and the cause of RRC setup is Originating Conversational Call or Terminating Conversational Call, the RNC regards the corresponding service as CS conversational service.
In the case of unconditional preemption, the RNC does not compare the priority of CS conversational services with that of PS BE services. In addition, it does not consider the Pre-emption Capability or Pre-emption Vulnerability IE delivered by the CN. In this case, PS BE services can be preempted by any CS conversational services and only PS BE services can be preempted. Preempted PS BE services are ranked by priority and PS BE services with the lowest priority are preempted.
When a UE transits to the CELL_DCH state from the URA_PCH or CELL_PCH state due to a CS service request, the RNC implements the policy of forced preemption based on the setting of CsP2DPreemptSwitch.
If CsP2DPreemptSwitch is set to OFF, the CS service request does not support preemption during a transition from the URA_PCH or CELL_PCH state to the CELL_DCH state.
If CsP2DPreemptSwitch is set to ON, the CS service can preempt only PS BE services during a transition from the URA_PCH or CELL_PCH state to the CELL_DCH state, regardless of the preemption attributes and priorities of the CS and PS BE services.
If there is no PS BE services to preempt, forced preemption is implemented and the RRCs for PS BE services are preempted when PsBERrcPreemptVulnerable is set to ON. Otherwise, preemption fails. For details about preemption of RRCs for PS BE services, see "Common Preemption" in section 5.6 "Preemption."
When enabling the forced preemption function, the CE resource preemption enhancement function must also be enabled (controlled by PREEMPT_ENH_NODEB_PREEMPT_CE_SWITCH under the PreemptEnhSwitch parameter). When CE
resource admission fails due to insufficient CE resources, the CE resource preemption enhancement function can be triggered on the NodeB side to ensure the CE resource preemption success rate. However, this function may occupy CE resources reserved for RRC connection setups and handovers, reducing the handover success rate and RRC connection setup success rate. This function does not affect the handover success rate and access success rate of the preempting UEs. The probability of the handover success rate and access success rate being reduced is low. Therefore, this function does not affect the performance of the live network.
5.7 Queuing
This section describes the queuing algorithm in the WRFD-010505 Queuing and Pre-Emption feature.
For PS services, after preemption fails, the RNC performs queuing if the following conditions are met:
The RNC receives an RAB ASSIGNMENT REQUEST message indicating that queuing is supported.
The queuing algorithm switch (QueueAlgoSwitch) is set to ON.
The queuing function is triggered by the heartbeat timer that is set by the PollTimerLen parameter. Each time the timer expires, the RNC selects the service that meets the requirement to make an admission attempt.
Multi-carrier services (such as DC-HSDPA, DB-HSDPA, 4C-HSDPA, or DC-HSUPA services) requested by the UE are waiting to be processed in the primary cell.
The queuing function performs the following functions:
The queuing algorithm checks whether the queue is full, that is, whether the number of service requests in the queue exceeds QueueLen.
The queuing algorithm decides whether to put the request into the queue, as described in the following table.
WCDMA RAN
Load Control 5 Intelligent Access Control

5-25
Table 5-12 Putting the new request into the queue
If the queue is... Then the queuing algorithm...
Not full Stamps this request with the request time (T_request)
Puts this request into the queue
Starts the heartbeat timer if it is not started
Full Checks whether the integrated priority of any existing request is lower than that of the new request
If yes, then the queuing algorithm:
− Checks the queuing time of each request. The algorithm removes the request with the longest queuing time from the queue
− Stamps the new request with the request time (T_request) and then puts it into the queue
− Starts the heartbeat timer if it is not started
If no, then the queuing algorithm rejects the new request directly
After the heartbeat timer expires, the queuing algorithm performs resource-based admission attempts as follows:
Rejects the request if the queuing time of the request (Telapsed) is longer than the maximum queuing time (MaxQueueTimeLen). Here, Telapsed is equal to the current time minus the request time (T_request).
Selects the request with the highest integrated priority for a resource-based admission attempt.
If more than one service has the highest integrated priority, the RNC selects the request with the longest queuing time.
If the attempt is successful, the heartbeat timer is restarted for the next processing.
If the attempt fails, the queuing algorithm proceeds as follows:
− Puts the service request back into the queue with the request time (T_request) unchanged for the next attempt.
− Selects the request with the longest queuing time from the rest and makes another attempt until a request is accepted or all requests are rejected.
5.8 Low-Rate Access of the PS BE Service
If the low-rate access of the PS BE service function is enabled, the PS BE service can access the target cell at a low rate in the case of a preemption or queuing failure, to increases the access success rate. Low-rate access means access from the DCH at 0 kbit/s, FACH, or enhanced FACH (E-FACH).
The low-rate access of the PS BE service function is enabled when the following conditions are met:
The PS_BE_EXTRA_LOW_RATE_ACCESS_SWITCH under the PsSwitch parameter is set to 1.
The PERFENH_SMALL_RATE_PS_FORCE_ADM_SWITCH under the PerfEnhanceSwitch parameter is set to 0.
The DRA_DCCC_SWITCH under the DraSwitch parameter is set to 1.
The PS_RAB_DOWNSIZING_SWITCH under the PsSwitch parameter is set to 1.
Low-rate access is used in the following scenarios:

Hard handover or SRNS relocation
After a service request is rejected, the low-rate access actions in different scenarios are as follows:
Scenario Scenario Description FACH/E_FACH DCH at 0 kbit/s

x √ (only the PS service can be admitted at 0 kbit/s)
Hard handover or relocation is performed for the PS+PS combined services.
x √
After an appropriate access action is determined, the service attempts to access the network.
If the action of access from the DCH at 0 kbit/s is determined, the service attempts to access the network at 0 kbit/s for traffic and at the normal rate for signaling. For details about the methods of resource-based admission decision, see Call Admission Control Feature Parameter Description.
If the action of access from the FACH/E-FACH is determined, the service attempts to access the network from the FACH/E-FACH.
If the attempt fails, this service is rejected.
For the service that accesses the network at 0 kbit/s, the ZeroRateUpFailToRelTimerLen timer is started after the service rate fails to increase for the first time. If the rate fails to increase even after the timer expires, the service is released, and the connection is also released for a single service.
If no data is transmitted for some time after the access, the UE state changes to another state. For details about state transition, see State Transition Feature Parameter Description.
5.9 IAC for Emergency Calls

WCDMA RAN

To guarantee successful access of emergency calls, the RNC takes special measures for emergency calls.
5.9.1 RRC connection setup procedure of Emergency Calls
Compared with the RRC connection setup procedure of common services, the RRC connection setup procedure of emergency calls includes the preemption due to hard resource-based admission failure. Hard resources include code, Iub, and CE resource. The following figure shows the RRC connection setup procedure of an emergency call.
Figure 5-4 RRC connection setup procedure of an emergency call
The RNC does not perform RRC redirection for service steering.
In the case of power-based admission, the emergency call is admitted regardless of whether the CAC function is enabled or not.
In the case of hard resource-based admission, the emergency call is admitted if the current remaining resources are sufficient for RRC connection setup. If the admission fails, preemption is performed regardless of whether the preemption is enabled or not. The emergency call that triggers preemption has the highest priority. The range of users who can be preempted is specified by the EmcPreeRefVulnSwitch parameter.
If EmcPreeRefVulnSwitch is set to ON, all non-emergency users who have accessed the network can be preempted, regardless of the preemption-prohibited attribute of the users.
If EmcPreeRefVulnSwitch is set to OFF, only the non-emergency users with preemption-allowed attribute can be preempted.
The principles for selection of specific users to be preempted are the same as those for common services. For details, see section 5.6 "Preemption."
5.9.2 RAB Process of Emergency Calls
Compared with the RAB process of common services, the RAB process of emergency calls includes special processing of resource-based admission and preemption.
RAB Admission of Emergency Calls
In case of power resource:
If the CAC function is enabled, regardless of which algorithm is selected, the admission decision is made as follows:
− When the EMC_UU_ADCTRL sub-parameter of the NBMCacAlgoSwitch parameter is set to 1, power-based admission fails if the system is in the overload congestion state. Otherwise, the admission succeeds.
− When this sub-parameter is set to 0, the emergency calls are directly admitted.
WCDMA RAN
Load Control 5 Intelligent Access Control

5-28
If the CAC function switch is off, the emergency calls are directly admitted.
For hard resources (that is, code, Iub, and CE), the resource-based admission is successful if the current remaining resources are sufficient for the request.
Preemption of Emergency Calls
If cell resource-based admission fails, preemption is performed regardless of whether the preempt function is enabled or not. The emergency calls that trigger preemption have the highest priority. The range of users who can be preempted is specified by the EmcPreeRefVulnSwitch parameter.
If EmcPreeRefVulnSwitch is set to ON, all non-emergency users who have accessed the network can be preempted, regardless of the preemption-prohibited attribute of the users.
If EmcPreeRefVulnSwitch is set to OFF, only the non-emergency users with preemption-allowed attribute can be preempted.
The principles for selection of specific users to be preempted are the same as those for common services. For details, see section 5.6 "Preemption."

6 Inter-Frequency Load Balancing Based on Configurable Load Threshold
6.1 Overview
This chapter describes the WRFD-140217 Inter-Frequency Load Balancing Based on Configurable Load Threshold feature.
This feature balances the load among inter-frequency cells in inter-frequency networking scenarios. CLB is short for the feature name. Based on the load thresholds set for the power resource, code resource, and CE resource, the RNC with CLB enabled can determine whether and when to trigger inter-frequency load balancing in different scenarios.
CLB is used in the following scenarios:
Overlay network: The cells in a sector use equipment provided by different vendors, and these cells may be managed by different RNCs. In this scenario, LDR cannot be used for load balancing among cells under different RNCs.
Macro and micro combined network: Macro and micro cells are networked using different frequencies. In this scenario, micro cells are required to absorb traffic volume preferentially, which means that load balancing needs to be performed before a cell is overloaded. The existing LDR threshold cannot be randomly changed. CLB can absorb traffic before load balancing is performed.
When the usage of cell resource exceeds the threshold for triggering the CLB state, the cell enters the CLB state. In this case, CLB inter-frequency handovers are required to reduce the cell load and increase the access success rate.
Figure 6-1 shows the CLB procedure.

The CLB procedure is as follows:
1. A user selects the INTER_FREQ_LOAD_BALANCE_BASEON_CFG_THD field under the FuncSwitch1 parameter to enable CLB.
2. The RNC determines whether a cell is in the CLB state based on the power resource, code resource, or CE resource. For details, see section 6.2 "Decision to Trigger or Release the CLB State." If the cell is in the CLB state, the procedure proceeds to the next step.

3. The RNC selects a user with the lowest priority for the CLB inter-frequency handover and checks the number of selected users.
− If the number of selected users is lower than or equal to the value of the MaxUserNumforCLBIFHO parameter, the procedure proceeds to the next step.
− If the number of selected users is larger than the value of the MaxUserNumforCLBIFHO parameter, the RNC waits for the next CLB period specified by the ClbPeriodTimerLen parameter and then returns to step 2.
For details about user selection for a CLB inter-frequency handover, see section 6.3 "User Selection for a CLB Inter-Frequency Handover."
4. The RNC selects the target cell or cells of a CLB inter-frequency handover for the selected users. For details, see section 6.4 "Target Cell Selection for a CLB Inter-Frequency Handover."
5. When the NCovCMUserNumCtrlSwitch parameter is set to ON, the RNC checks the number of users in compressed mode with spreading factor (SF)/2 reduction.
− If the number of users in compressed mode with SF/2 reduction in the cell is lower than CellSFCMUserNumThd, the procedure proceeds to the next step.
− If the number of users in compressed mode with SF/2 reduction in the cell is larger than or equal to CellSFCMUserNumThd, the RNC waits for a CLB period specified by the ClbPeriodTimerLen parameter and then returns to step 2.
The first CLB period starts when a cell enters the CLB state.
6. The RNC performs inter-frequency measurements and handovers. For details, see section 6.5 "Inter-Frequency Measurements and Handovers." After the handovers are complete, the procedure proceeds to 4.
6.2 Decision to Trigger or Release the CLB State
The CLB state of a cell is triggered by insufficient power resource, code resource, or CE resource.
The CLB switches for power resource, code resource, and CE resource are listed in Table 6-1. Turn on associated CLB switches to enable CLB for power resource, code resource, or CE resource.

If the uplink or downlink load on the power resource, code resource, or CE resource is higher than the corresponding CLB triggering threshold listed in Table 6-2 for a period specified by the UlLdTrnsHysTime or DlLdTrnsHysTime parameter, the cell enters the CLB state and the RNC performs inter-frequency measurements and handovers towards the target cell. If the uplink or downlink load on the power resource, code resource, or CE resource is lower than the corresponding CLB

Set the CLB releasing threshold to a value smaller than the CLB triggering threshold. It is recommended that the difference value (in unit of %) be greater than or equal to 10.
The CLB state triggered by a CS service or the CS and PS combined services is referred to as the CS CLB state, and the CLB state triggered by a PS service is referred to as the PS CLB state. Details are as follows:
If the cell is in the CS CLB state, which means that the uplink or downlink cell load on the power resource, code resource, or CE resource is higher than the CS CLB triggering threshold for a period specified by the UlLdTrnsHysTime or DlLdTrnsHysTime parameter, the RNC selects the users performing CS services.
For CS and PS combined services, the RNC determines their CS CLB state the same way it does with CS services.
If the cell is in the PS CLB state, which means that the uplink or downlink cell load on the power resource, code resource, or CE resource is higher than the PS CLB triggering threshold for a period specified by the UlLdTrnsHysTime or DlLdTrnsHysTime parameter, the RNC selects the users performing PS services.
If the cell is in the CS and PS CLB states simultaneously, the RNC selects both the users performing CS services and the users performing PS services.
Figure 6-2 shows the process for triggering and releasing the CLB state.

Figure 6-2 Triggering and releasing the CLB state
The RNC performs periodic CLB checks, checking whether the cells are in the CLB state. The period of a CLB check is specified by the ClbPeriodTimerLen parameter.
If the current UL/DL load is higher than or equal to the UL/DL CLB triggering threshold for a hysteresis time (UlLdTrnsHysTime/DlLdTrnsHysTime), the cell is in the CLB congestion state and the related CLB actions are triggered.
If the current UL/DL load is lower than the UL/DL LDR releasing threshold for a hysteresis time (UlLdTrnsHysTime / DlLdTrnsHysTime), the cell enters the normal state.
6.3 User Selection for a CLB Inter-Frequency Handover
For different resources, user selection for a CLB inter-frequency handover depends on the services carried on the uplink and downlink, as shown in Table 6-3.

When a cell enters the CLB state, the RNC selects users for inter-frequency measurements based on the following conditions:
The RNC selects users that support one of the frequencies used by the inter-frequency neighboring cells whose CLBFlag is TRUE.
The RNC selects users based on the CLB state of a cell.
− If the cell is in the CS CLB state, the RNC selects the users performing CS services.
− If the cell is in the PS CLB state, the RNC selects the users performing PS services.
− If the cell is in the CS and PS CLB states simultaneously, the RNC selects both the users performing CS services and the users performing PS services.
The RNC selects users with a bandwidth smaller than or equal to the bandwidth upper limit.
The bandwidth of UEs processing non-HSPA services and HSPA CS AMR services is their current rate, and the bandwidth of UEs processing HSPA PS BE services and streaming services is the GBR. The parameters related to the bandwidth limit are UlInterFreqHoBWThd and DlInterFreqHoBWThd.
The RNC does not select DC-HSDPA users.
The RNC can select DC-HSUPA users whose primary cell is in the CLB state.
The RNC selects gold users only when the GoldUserLoadControlSwitch parameter is set to ON.
Then, the RNC sorts the selected users by integrated user priority in ascending order. The RNC selects users with lower priorities first and then users with higher priorities. For users having the same integrated priority, a user is randomly selected. The maximum number of selected users is specified by the MaxUserNumforCLBIFHO parameter. For details about the integrated user priority, see section 2.3.3 "Integrated User Priority."
6.4 Target Cell Selection for a CLB Inter-Frequency Handover
The RNC selects a target cell of a CLB inter-frequency handover for each selected user. Based on the value of the CellLoadBalanceRange parameter, the RNC decides whether to select the inter-frequency neighboring cells whose CLBFlag is TRUE under the neighboring RNC (CLB-capable neighboring cell for short). The CellLoadBalanceRange parameter values are as follows:
ONLY_TO_INTRA_RNC: Only intra-RNC inter-frequency load balancing is allowed. Only a CLB-capable neighboring cell under the same RNC can be selected as the target cell.
WCDMA RAN

6-7
ONLY_TO_INTER_RNC: Only inter-RNC inter-frequency load balancing is allowed. Only a CLB-capable neighboring cell under the neighboring RNC can be selected as the target cell.
BOTH_TO_INTRA_RNC_AND_INTER_RNC: Intra- and inter-RNC inter-frequency load balancing are both allowed. A CLB-capable neighboring cell under the same RNC or the neighboring RNC can be selected as the target cell.
The process for selecting a target cell of an inter-frequency handover varies according to the following conditions:
The CellLoadBalanceRange parameter is set to ONLY_TO_INTRA_RNC.
− The RNC selects the inter-frequency neighboring cells whose CLBFlag is TRUE. These cells must be under the same RNC as the source cell in the CLB state.
− From the previously selected cells, the RNC excludes the inter-frequency neighboring cells working on the frequencies that are not supported by UEs to be handed over, the inter-frequency neighboring cells in the CLB state, and the inter-frequency neighboring cells in the LDR state.
− From the previously selected cells, the RNC excludes the cells whose cell load is larger than the CLB triggering threshold minus the CLB difference threshold, ensuring that the selected cells have sufficient resources. The selected cells are combined as candidate cells. The CLB triggering threshold and difference threshold are set based on the air interface load, CE resource, and code resource. The CLB difference threshold is used to set the resource space threshold for CLB inter-frequency handovers. The related parameters are described as follows:
Resource Type Uplink Downlink
Power resource UlPwrLoadSpaceThd DlPwrLoadSpaceThd
Code resource None ClbCodeUsedSpaceThd
CE resource UlClbCreditSfSpaceThd DlClbCreditSfSpaceThd
− From the candidate cells, the RNC selects a cell or cells with the highest priority as the target cell or cells based on the CLB-capable neighboring cell priority (CLBPrio).
− When the reference user speed optimization switch (UESpdOptSwitch) is set to ON, high-speed users cannot be handed over to a micro cell. For details on how to identify high-speed users, see Handover Feature Parameter Description.
The CellLoadBalanceRange parameter is set to ONLY_TO_INTER_RNC, and SepRNCNCellLoadEstSwitch is set to ON.
The RNC can identify the CLB state of the inter-RNC neighboring cell only by the "high load cell" mark. If the SepRNCNCellLoadEstSwitch parameter is set to OFF, the RNC does not identify the CLB state by the "high load cell" mark.
− The RNC selects the inter-frequency neighboring cells whose CLBFlag is TRUE. The selected cells must NOT be under the same RNC as the source cell in the CLB state.
− From the previously selected cells, the RNC excludes the inter-frequency neighboring cells working on the frequencies that are not supported by UEs to be handed over and the inter-frequency neighboring cells in the CLB state and the 3G cells marked "high load cell" as candidate cells. The details about the 3G cells marked "high load cell" are as follows:
a During the time window defined by UmtsCellLoadEstSlidWindow, if the number of inter-RNC handover failures due to neighboring cell congestion or high load reaches the value of the UmtsCellIFHOFailNum parameter, the 3G cell is marked "high load cell". Inter-frequency measurements on and handovers towards the 3G cell are forbidden. The handover failure causes include Relocation Preparation Failure and Radio Link Setup Failure.

b When a 3G cell under a neighboring RNC is marked "high load cell", a penalty timer (PenaltyTimeforHLoad3GCell) starts. The 3G cell cannot be selected as the target cell of a CLB inter-frequency handover until the timer expires. When it expires, the "high load cell" mark is removed from the 3G cell.
− From the candidate cells, the RNC selects a cell or cells with the highest priority as the target cell or cells based on the CLB-capable neighboring cell priority (CLBPrio).
− When the reference user speed optimization switch (UESpdOptSwitch) is set to ON, high-speed users cannot be handed over to a micro cell. For details on how to identify high-speed users, see Handover Feature Parameter Description.
The CellLoadBalanceRange parameter is set to BOTH_TO_INTRA_RNC_AND_INTER_RNC.
− The RNC selects the combination of target cells that are selected when this parameter is set to ONLY_TO_INTRA_RNC and ONLY_TO_INTER_RNC as candidate cells.
− From the candidate cells, the RNC selects a cell or cells with the highest priority as the target cell or cells based on the CLB-capable neighboring cell priority (CLBPrio).
In the preceding three scenarios, if the RNC selects a DC-HSUPA user, the target cell must not be an inter-frequency neighboring cell from the same carrier group.
6.5 Inter-Frequency Measurements and Handovers
The RNC sends the inter-frequency measurement control message to the UEs selected for CLB inter-frequency handovers, instructing the UEs to perform inter-frequency measurements for CLB inter-frequency handovers. This message contains information about one or more target cells. If the compressed mode is required for inter-frequency measurements, the RNC starts the compressed mode first. For details about how target cells are selected, see section 6.4 "Target Cell Selection for a CLB Inter-Frequency Handover." For details about how UEs are selected for CLB inter-frequency handovers, see section 6.3 "User Selection for a CLB Inter-Frequency Handover."
The UEs selected for CLB inter-frequency handovers send the RNC measurement reports, containing the cell quality information about one or more target cells. Upon receiving such a measurement report, the RNC performs the following:
The RNC initiates an inter-frequency hard handover if the received measurement report includes a cell that meets all of the following criteria:
− The cell quality meets the RSCP-based and Ec/Io-based inter-frequency handover thresholds.
− The cell is not in the CLB state.
− The cell load is less than or equal to the CLB triggering threshold minus the CLB difference threshold.
If the inter-frequency hard handover succeeds, the RNC processes the next UE. If the handover fails, the RNC waits for the next measurement report. If the UE cannot be handed over to any of the candidate cells, the RNC decides that the UE cannot be handed over and processes the next one.
If the received measurement report includes more than one cell, the RNC selects a target cell based on the following rules and initiates an inter-frequency hard handover.
− The RNC selects cells whose cell load meets the RSCP-based and Ec/Io-based inter-frequency handover thresholds.
− The RNC excludes cells in the CLB state and cells whose cell load exceeds the CLB triggering threshold minus the CLB difference threshold.
− The RNC selects a cell with the highest integrated priority as the target cell. If more than one cell has the highest integrated priority, the RNC selects any of them as the target cell.
If the inter-frequency hard handover succeeds, the RNC processes the next UE. If the handover fails, the RNC selects the target cell with the second-highest integrated priority. If the handover still fails, the

RNC waits for the next measurement report. If the UE cannot be handed over to any of the candidate cells, the RNC decides that the UE cannot be handed over and processes the next one.
6.6 Related Features
The features that CLB depends on vary in different scenarios:
In the intra-band inter-frequency networking scenario, CLB does not depend on any features.
In the inter-band inter-frequency networking scenario, CLB depends on the WRFD-020110 Multi Frequency Band Networking Management feature.
The difference between CLB and LDR lies in timing for algorithm triggering. LDR is used in the basic congestion scenario. CLB is used for load balancing when:
The cell has not been congested.
The cell has been congested but LDR cannot be used for load balancing, such as load balancing among cells under different RNCs.
CLB is independent from LDR.

7 Intra-Frequency Load Balancing
7.1 Overview
The intra-frequency load balancing function automatically adjusts the P-CPICH transmit power based on cell load. In this way, load across intra-frequency neighboring cells can be balanced.
When the cell load increases, this function reduces the P-CPICH transmit power. As a result, cell coverage shrinks and UEs at the cell edge can be handed over to intra-frequency neighboring cells. This reduces the load in the current cell.
When cell load decreases, this function increases the P-CPICH transmit power. In this case, cell coverage is widened and UEs from other heavily loaded neighboring cells can be handed over to the current cell.
The intra-frequency load balancing function increases resource usage and system capacity by utilizing idle resources in neighboring cells.
Intra-frequency load balancing incorporates the downlink intra-frequency load balancing and uplink intra-frequency load balancing functions. The downlink intra-frequency load balancing and uplink intra-frequency load balancing functions cannot take effect simultaneously. If they are enabled at the same time, the downlink intra-frequency load balancing function takes precedence.
7.2 Downlink Intra-Frequency Load Balancing
The downlink intra-frequency load balancing function adjusts the P-CPICH transmit power based on the measured downlink cell load. The downlink intra-frequency load balancing function incorporates the TCP-based intra-frequency load balancing function and the Load Based Dynamic Adjustment of PCPICH feature. If they are enabled at the same time, the Load Based Dynamic Adjustment of PCPICH feature takes precedence.
7.2.1 TCP-based Intra-Frequency Load Balancing
This chapter describes the WRFD-020104 Intra-Frequency Load Balance feature.
Downlink intra-frequency load balancing is performed to adjust the coverage areas of cells according to the measured values of cell load. It is applicable only to the downlink.
Downlink intra-frequency load balancing between intra-frequency cells is performed by adjusting the transmit power of the Primary Common Pilot Channel (P-CPICH) according to the downlink load of the associated cells.
When this function is enabled, that is, when INTRA_FREQUENCY_LDB under the NBMLdcAlgoSwitch parameter is enabled, the RNC checks the load of cells periodically and adjusts the transmit power of the P-CPICH in the associated cells based on the cell load.
The following figure shows the procedure for downlink intra-frequency load balancing.

Figure 7-1 Procedure of downlink intra-frequency load balancing
The downlink intra-frequency load balancing is described as follows:
If the downlink load of a cell is higher than the cell overload threshold (CellOverrunThd), it is an indication that the cell is heavily overloaded. In this case, the transmit power of the P-CPICH needs to be reduced step by step. The step is specified by the PCPICHPowerPace parameter.
If the current transmit power is equal to the minimum transmit power of P-CPICH (MinPCPICHPower), the current transmit power is not adjusted.
Because of the reduction in the pilot power, the UEs at the edge of the cell can be handed over to neighboring cells, especially to those with a relatively light load and with relatively high pilot power. After that, the downlink load of the cell is lightened accordingly.
If the downlink load of a cell is lower than the cell underload threshold (CellUnderrunThd), it is an indication that the cell has sufficient remaining capacity for more load. In this case, the transmit power of the P-CPICH can be increased step by step to help lighten the load of neighboring cells. The step is specified by the PCPICHPowerPace parameter.
If the current transmit power is equal to the maximum transmit power of P-CPICH (MaxPCPICHPower), the current transmit power is not adjusted.

This feature dynamically adjusts the P-CPICH transmit power based on downlink non-HSPA load in a cell to reduce downlink non-HSPA load for this cell. After the power adjustment, the maximum and minimum transmit power of the DPCH carrying online UEs is also changed. To minimize the impact of power adjustment on online UEs, this feature compensates the maximum and minimum DPCH transmit power during the power adjustment procedure.
When DLLOAD_BASED_PCPICH_PWR_ADJ_SWITCH under the NBMLdcAlgoSwitch parameter is selected, the Load Based Dynamic Adjustment of PCPICH feature is activated and the TCP-based intra-frequency load balancing function becomes disabled. The RNC periodically checks the downlink non-HSPA power load in the current cell and adjusts the P-CPICH transmit power.
Figure 7-2 shows the flowchart of the Load Based Dynamic Adjustment of PCPICH algorithm.
Figure 7-2 Flowchart of the Load Based Dynamic Adjustment of PCPICH algorithm
The RNC checks the downlink non-HSPA load in the current cell at an interval specified by the IntraFreqLdbPeriodTimerLen parameter. Then the RNC adjusts the P-CPICH transmit power for this cell.
If downlink non-HSPA load in the current cell is equal to or larger than the value specified in the PcpichPwrDownDlLoadState parameter, this cell is heavily loaded. In this situation, the P-CPICH transmit power is reduced according to the value of the PCPICHPowerPace parameter so that cell-edge UEs can be handed over to neighboring cells with lighter load. This reduces downlink power load and increases downlink capacity of the current cell.

The minimum transmit power of the P-CPICH (MinPCPICHPower) is the lower limit for power adjustment. The P-CPICH transmit power will not be reduced if reaching this limit. The maximum power reduction is the difference between the PCPICHPower and MinPCPICHPower parameters. The PCPICHPower parameter specifies the P-CPICH transmit power.
If downlink non-HSPA load in the current cell is smaller than the value specified in the PcpichPwrUpDlLoadState parameter, this cell is lightly loaded. In this situation, more services can be processed in this cell and the P-CPICH transmit power can be increased according to the value of the PCPICHPowerPace parameter. This widens cell coverage and the widened coverage can accommodate cell-edge UEs from neighboring cells. This relieves load of the neighboring cells.
The maximum transmit power of the P-CPICH (MaxPCPICHPower) is the upper limit for power adjustment. P-CPICH transmit power will not be increased if reaching this limit. The maximum power increase is the difference between the MaxPCPICHPower and PCPICHPower parameters. The PCPICHPower parameter specifies the P-CPICH transmit power.
To minimize the impact of power adjustment on online UEs, this feature compensates the maximum and minimum DPCH transmit power during the power adjustment procedure.
If the adjusted P-CPICH transmit power is lower than the value of the PCPICHPower parameter, the maximum transmit power of the DPCH carrying online UEs remains the same as the power before the power adjustment to promote link stability for online UEs.
If the adjusted P-CPICH transmit power is higher than the value of the PCPICHPower parameter, the minimum transmit power of the DPCH carrying online UEs remains the same as the power before the power adjustment to reduce non-HSPA power consumption.
The maximum and minimum transmit power for online UEs before the power adjustment is the sum of the PCPICHPower and RlMinDlPwr parameters, and the sum of the PCPICHPower and RlMaxDlPwr parameters, respectively. For details about the RlMinDlPwr and RlMaxDlPwr parameters, see Power Control Feature Parameter Description.
7.3 Uplink Intra-Frequency Load Balancing
In scenarios where uplink interference is always strong, increased RTWP leads to limited uplink coverage, causing uplink and downlink coverage imbalance. To solve this problem, the RTWP-based uplink intra-frequency load balancing algorithm is introduced. If this algorithm finds that uplink coverage limitation is caused by RTWP, it automatically adjusts pilot power and decreases downlink coverage, thereby balancing uplink and downlink coverage. This algorithm reduces the call drop ratio of cell edge users caused by strong external interference. After the uplink RTWP becomes normal, this algorithm automatically adjusts the pilot power to normal.
The uplink intra-frequency load balancing algorithm is specified by the NBMLdcAlgoSwitch: UL_INTRA_FREQUENCY_ULB parameter. Figure 7-3 shows the process of the uplink intra-frequency load balancing algorithm.

Figure 7-3 Process of the uplink intra-frequency load balancing algorithm
As shown in Figure 7-3, the RNC performs the following actions in each ULB period (specified by the IntraFreqULBPeriodTimerLen parameter):
1. The RNC obtains RTWP from the NodeB and then performs smooth filtering on the RTWP value. The smooth filtering window is specified by the ULBAvgFilterLen parameter.
2. The RNC evaluates the uplink load of the current cell based on the filtered RTWP value.
− If the filtered RTWP value is between RTWPHeavyThd and RTWPLightThd, the RNC considers the load of the current cell to be normal. In this case, the RNC does not adjust the pilot power in this period.
− If the filtered RTWP value is more than or equal to RTWPHeavyThd, the RNC considers the load of the current cell to be heavy. In this case, the RNC performs step 3.
− If the filtered RTWP value is less than or equal to RTWPLightThd, the RNC considers the load of the current cell to be light. In this case, the RNC performs step 4.
3. The RNC compares the current pilot power and MinPCPICHPower. If the current pilot power is more than MinPCPICHPower, the RNC decreases the current pilot power by one step (specified by the PCPICHPowerPace parameter). Otherwise, the RNC does not adjust the pilot power in this period.
4. The RNC compares the current pilot power and MaxPCPICHPower. If the current pilot power is less than MaxPCPICHPower, the RNC increases the current pilot power by one step (specified by the PCPICHPowerPace parameter). Otherwise, the RNC does not adjust the pilot power in this period.

8 Load Reshuffling
This chapter describes the WRFD-020106 Load Reshuffling feature.
When the usage of cell resources exceeds the basic congestion trigger threshold, the cell enters the basic congestion state. In this case, LDR is required to reduce the cell load and increase the access success rate.
8.1 Basic Congestion Triggering
The basic congestion of a cell is caused by insufficient power resource, code resource, Iub resource, or NodeB credit resource. A cell where the basic congestion occurs is referred to as a cell in the LDR state.
For power resource, the RNC performs periodic measurement and checks whether the cells are congested. For code, Iub, and NodeB credit resources, the RNC checks whether the cells are congested when resource usage changes.
If the congestion of all resources is triggered in a cell, the basic congestion triggered by different resources will be relieved in order of resource priority for load reshuffling as configured by running the SET ULDCALGOPARA command.
8.1.1 Power Resource
The uplink load reshuffling algorithm selection depends on the following conditions:
If the parameter NBMUlCacAlgoSelSwitch is set to ALGORITHM_First, ALGORITHM_THIRD, or ALGORITHM_OFF, the uplink load reshuffling algorithm will trigger basic congestion based on power resource.
If the parameter NBMUlCacAlgoSelSwitch is set to ALGORITHM_FORTH, the uplink load reshuffling algorithm will trigger basic congestion based on the total uplink load corresponding to the actual uplink service load.
If the parameter NBMUlCacAlgoSelSwitch is set to ALGORITHM_SECOND, the uplink load reshuffling algorithm will trigger basic congestion based on ENU.
For an HSUPA cell, if HSUPA_EDCH_RSEPS_MEAS under the NBMCacAlgoSwitch parameter is not selected,
regardless of the value of the parameter NBMUlCacAlgoSelSwitch, the uplink load reshuffling algorithm will trigger basic congestion based on ENU.
If the measurement on the total uplink load corresponding to the actual uplink service load is unavailable, for example, when the relevant NodeB boards cannot report the measurement results, the uplink load reshuffling algorithm will trigger basic congestion based on ENU.
The downlink load reshuffling algorithm selection depends on the following conditions:
If the parameter NBMDlCacAlgoSelSwitch is set to ALGORITHM_OFF, ALGORITHM_First, or ALGORITHM_THIRD, the downlink load reshuffling algorithm will trigger basic congestion based on power resource.
If the parameter NBMDlCacAlgoSelSwitch is set to ALGORITHM_SECOND, the downlink load reshuffling algorithm will trigger basic congestion based on ENU.
If the load of a cell is calculated based on power resource, the uplink load of the cell is calculated based on the uncontrollable load in the HSUPA cell or total RTWP load in the R99 cell. And the downlink load of the cell is calculated based on the load of non-HSPA power and GBP in the HSDPA cell or total TCP load in the R99 cell. If the load of a cell is calculated based on ENU, the uplink load and the downlink load of the cell are calculated based on the total ENU load in the cell, respectively. For details about the load of a cell calculated based on power resource and based on ENU, see Call Admission Control Feature Parameter Description.

In a DC-HSDPA or DC-HSUPA cell, if the cell load is calculated based on the number of equivalent users, only the equivalent users on the primary carrier are counted in the DC-HSDPA or DC-HSUPA cell.
Congestion control based on power resource can be enabled through the DL_UU_LDR and UL_UU_LDR sub-parameters of the NBMLdcAlgoSwitch parameter.
The following figure shows the triggering and relieving of basic congestion.
Figure 8-1 Triggering and relieving of basic congestion
As shown in Figure 8-1, if the UL/DL load of the cell is higher than or equal to the UL/DL LDR trigger threshold (UlLdrTrigThd or DlLdrTrigThd) for a hysteresis time, the cell is in the basic congestion state, and the related load reshuffling actions, as listed in Table 8-2, are taken. If the current UL/DL load of the cell is lower than the UL/DL LDR relief threshold (UlLdrRelThd or DlLdrRelThd) for a hysteresis time, the cell changes to the normal state and the related load reshuffling actions are stopped.
For the downlink, the hysteresis time is specified by the DlLdTrnsHysTime parameter; for the uplink, the hysteresis time
is 600 ms.
The DL LDR trigger threshold of a DC-HSDPA cell group equals the sum of the DL LDR trigger thresholds of the two cells in this group. The DL LDR relief threshold of a DC-HSDPA cell group equals the sum of the DL LDR relief thresholds of the two cells in this group. If a DC-HSDPA cell group is in the basic congestion state, the related LDR actions are performed in each cell separately.
In a DC-HSUPA cell, LDR triggering and execution happen in the two cells respectively.
8.1.2 Code Resource
Congestion control based on code resource can be enabled through the CELL_CODE_LDR sub-parameter of the NBMLdcAlgoSwitch parameter.

If the SF corresponding to the current remaining code of the cell is larger than the value of CellLdrSfResThd, code congestion is triggered and the related load reshuffling actions, as listed in Table 8-2, are taken.
8.1.3 Iub Resource
Congestion control based on Iub resource can be enabled through the IUB_LDR sub-parameter of the NodeBLdcAlgoSwitch parameter.
Iub congestion control in both the uplink and downlink is NodeB-oriented. In the case of Iub congestion, LDR actions are applied to congestion resolution. Iub congestion is detected in a separate processing module. For details about the decision on Iub congestion detection, see Transmission Resource Management Feature Parameter Description.
For the basic congestion caused by Iub resource, all UEs under the NodeB are the objects of related LDR actions.
8.1.4 NodeB Credit Resource
The basic congestion caused by NodeB credit resource is of the following types:
Type A: Basic congestion at the local cell level
If the cell UL/DL current remaining credit resource is lower than the credit resource corresponding to the SF specified by UlLdrCreditSfResThd or DlLdrCreditSfResThd (set by running the ADD UCELLLDR command), credit congestion at the cell level is triggered and related load reshuffling actions will be taken in the current cell.
Type B: Basic congestion at the local cell group level (if any)
Type C: Basic congestion at the NodeB level
If the cell group or NodeB UL/DL current remaining credit resource is lower than the credit resource corresponding to the SF specified by UlLdrCreditSfResThd or DlLdrCreditSfResThd (set by running the ADD UNODEBLDR command), credit congestion at the cell group or NodeB level is triggered and related load reshuffling actions will be taken.
The basic congestion of type A will not trigger load-based inter-frequency handovers while the basic congestion of type B or C will trigger such actions.
The following table lists the LDR switches that need to be set to 1 for different algorithm types.

8.2 LDR Procedure
When the cell is in the basic congestion state, the RNC takes one of the following actions in each period (specified by the LdrPeriodTimerLen parameter by running the SET ULDCPERIOD command) until the congestion is relieved. These procedures apply to HSPA cells and R99 cells:
For R99 cells, only DCH UEs are selected by LDR actions.

Inter-RAT load-based handover in the CS domain, which involves the following actions:

The difference between the "Inter-RAT Should Be Load-based Handover In the CS/PS Domain" and "Inter-RAT Should Not Be Load-based Handover In the CS/PS Domain" actions lies in the selection of users. The former only involves CS/PS users with the "service handover" IE in RAB ASSIGNMENT REQUEST set to "handover to GSM should be performed", while the latter only involves CS/PS users with the "service handover" IE set to "handover to GSM should not be performed". For details about the "service handover" IE, see Handover Feature Parameter Description.

In this example, the sequence of LDR actions is fixed to load-based inter-frequency handover, code reshuffling, BE rate reduction, inter-RAT handover in CS domain, inter-RAT handover in PS domain, AMR rate reduction, QoS Renegotiation for Uncontrollable Real-Time Services, and MBMS power reduction.

Figure 8-2 LDR procedure
As shown in the preceding figure, when the system is congested, the load-based inter-frequency handover is initiated first.
If the handover succeeds, the algorithm continues to check whether the system is congested. If the system is still congested, the load-based inter-frequency handover is initiated again.
If the handover fails, code reshuffling is performed:
− If the code reshuffling succeeds, the algorithm continues to check whether the system is congested. If the system is still congested, the code reshuffling is initiated again.
− If the code reshuffling fails, the next action, BE rate reduction, is taken.
The remaining actions to be performed may be deduced by analogy. For details about LDR actions, see section 8.3 "LDR Actions."
The LDR actions that are triggered by basic congestion caused by different resources are different. Table 8-2 describes the LDR actions intended for different resources.

A few actions in Table 8-2 are described as follows:
The Inter-RAT Handover in CS Domain action can be performed for the HSDPA services only when the HsdpaCMPermissionInd parameter is set to TRUE.
If the uplink power-based admission uses the ENU algorithm, the load-based inter-frequency handover for HSUPA user can be performed.
If the uplink power-based admission uses the power resource algorithm, the load-based inter-frequency handover for HSUPA user cannot be performed, as indicated by the symbol "*" in the preceding table.
If the downlink power-based admission uses the ENU algorithm, the basic congestion can also be caused by the ENU. In this situation, LDR actions do not involve AMR rate reduction or MBMS power reduction, as indicated by the symbol "*" in the preceding table.
In the same environment, different rates have different downlink transmit powers. The higher the rate, the greater the downlink transmit power. Therefore, the load can be reduced by bandwidth reconfiguration.
If dynamic CE resource management is enabled, BE service rate downsizing of LDR actions that is triggered by insufficient NodeB credit resource is ineffective to HSUPA users.
For LDR triggered by Iub congestion, RNC selects UEs in the congested path or port.
Load-based inter-frequency handovers triggered by code resource congestion support blind handovers but do not support measurement-based handovers.
In an LDR-triggered DC-HSUPA cell, the RNC selects only the DC-HSUPA UEs whose current cell is the primary cell. If LDR is triggered because of insufficient uplink power or number of equivalent users, the RNC does not select the DC-HSUPA UEs whose secondary carrier cell is the target cell.
Parameters related to certain LDR actions are classified into cell-level and NodeB-level parameters. These parameters apply to different resources.
− NodeB-level parameters take effect when Iub resources, cell group credit resources, or NodeB credit resources are in basic congestion state.

− Cell-level parameters take effect when power resources, code resources, or cell credit resources are in basic congestion state.
8.3 LDR Actions
8.3.1 Load-based Inter-Frequency Handover
Load-based inter-frequency handover is also called inter-frequency load balance (WRFD-020103 Inter-Frequency Load Balance).
If the UE is in the soft handover state, load-based inter-frequency handover can be performed only when HO_ALGO_LDR_ALLOW_SHO_SWITCH under the HoSwitch parameter is set to 1.
When HO_INTER_FREQ_HARD_HO_SWITCH under the HoSwitch parameter is set to ON, the RNC is allowed to initiate inter-frequency measure control or the load-based inter-frequency hard handover upon the handover decision on inter-frequency load.
The CodeCongSelInterFreqHoInd parameter can be set so that the inter-frequency handover can relieve the basic congestion caused by code resource.
The load-based inter-frequency handover can be performed based on blind handover or measurement, which can be decided by the InterFreqLDHOMethodSelection parameter.
Load-based Inter-Frequency Handover Based on Blind Handover
If the InterFreqLDHOMethodSelection parameter is set to BLINDHO, the load-based inter-frequency handover based on blind handover performs the following steps:
1. The algorithm checks whether cells for inter-frequency blind handover are available. If available, the algorithm goes to the next step. Otherwise, the action fails, and the algorithm takes the next action.
Whether the neighboring cells support blind handover is specified by the parameter BlindHoFlag.
2. The RNC selects the UEs that meet the following requirements. Then, RNC sorts the UEs by integrated user priority and selects the UE of the lowest integrated user priority to perform the next step. If there are no candidate users, the action fails, and the algorithm takes the next action.
− The service types of UEs are not restricted for LDR handover by parameter InterFreqLdHoForbidenTC.
− The user rate of UEs is smaller than or equal to the handover bandwidth threshold. The handover bandwidth thresholds of uplink and downlink are respectively specified by the UlInterFreqHoBWThd and DlInterFreqHoBWThd parameters.
− If the basic congestion is caused by the credit resource, only UEs processing PS services are selected as candidate UEs.
If multiple UEs have the same lowest integrated priority, the algorithm selects the one with the highest rate for
handover.
The user rates of UEs processing non-HSPA services and HSPA CS AMR services are their actual rates, and the user rates of UEs processing HSPA PS BE services and streaming services are their GBRs. The user rates must be less than UlInterFreqHoBWThd and DlInterFreqHoBWThd in the uplink and downlink.
If the basic congestion is caused by the credit resource, only UEs processing PS services are selected as candidate UEs. UEs processing CS services are not selected because they consume a small amount of credit resource and therefore handovers of them can do little to ease credit congestion. In addition, selecting UEs processing CS services as candidate UEs may increase the call drop rate of CS services.
3. The RNC selects the candidate cells that meet the following requirements:
− The cell is an inter-frequency neighboring cell of the current cell and is controlled by the same RNC.
− The frequency of the cell is within the band supported by the UE.

− CPICH RSCP of the current cell in the measurement report that is reported by UE is higher than or equal to BlindHOQualityCondition of the candidate cells.
− The algorithm selects the candidate cells to be handed over according to the setting of NbmLdcUeSelSwitch:
a. If NbmLdcUeSelSwitch is set to NBM_LDC_MATCH_UE_ONLY, the algorithm only selects the candidate cells from the cells supporting the UE service.
b. If NbmLdcUeSelSwitch is set to NBM_LDC_MATCH_UE_FIRST, the algorithm first selects the candidate cells from the cells supporting the UE service. If there are no such cells, the algorithm selects the candidate cells from the cells not supporting the UE service.
c. If NbmLdcUeSelSwitch is set to NBM_LDC_ALL_UE, the condition is invalid for the algorithm.
− The load state of candidate cell is normal.
− The candidate cell meets the following conditions on load margin:
a. If the basic congestion is caused by power resource:
If the cell does not support DC-HSDPA, the algorithm checks whether the UL/DL load margin of the cell is higher than UlInterFreqHoCellLoadSpaceThd/DlInterFreqHoCellLoadSpaceThd, whether the load of the cell is normal and whether the CPICH RSCP of the current cell in the measurement report is higher than or equal to BlindHOQualityCondition.
If a cell supports DC-HSDPA, the cell and its corresponding cell group must have sufficient load margin to qualify as the candidate cell. That is, the load margin of the cell group must be greater than twice the value for DlInterFreqHoCellLoadSpaceThd and the load margin of the cell must be greater than DlInterFreqHoCellLoadSpaceThd.
The load margin refers to the difference between the load of the candidate cell and the basic congestion trigger threshold of the candidate cell. If the load of a cell is calculated based on power resource, the uplink load of the cell is calculated based on the uncontrollable load of the cell and the downlink load of the cell is calculated based on the load of non-HSPA power and GBP in the cell. If the load of a cell is calculated based on ENU, the uplink load and the downlink load of the cell are calculated based on the total ENU load in the cell, respectively. For details about the load of a cell calculated based on power resource and based on ENU, see Call Admission Control Feature Parameter Description.
b. If the basic congestion is caused by code resource:
Whether there are blind handover candidate cells meeting the requirements is decided by the following conditions:
The minimum SF of the candidate cell is not greater than that of the current cell.
The difference of code usage between the current cell and the candidate cell is greater than LdrCodeUsedSpaceThd.
c. If the basic congestion is caused by the credit resource:
UL credit margin for LDR in the candidate cell > Credit resource corresponding to the SF specified by UlInterFreqHoCeLDRSpaceThd
The UL credit margin for LDR is calculated by subtracting the credit resource corresponding to the SF specified by UlLdrCreditSfResThd from the remaining credit resource in the cell group or under the NodeB. The UL credit margin for LDR equals the smaller one of the UL credit margin for LDR in the cell group and that under the NodeB.
4. The RNC selects the target cell from the candidate cells according to the following principles:
− If there are more than one candidate cells meeting the requirements, the first cell in the list of the neighbor cells is selected as the blind handover target cell.
− If there is no such cell, the RNC selects the candidate user of the second lowest integrated user priority to retry to select the target cell.
− If all the candidate users have been tried and the RNC does not select the target cell, the action fails and the algorithm takes the next action.

5. After selecting the target cell and the UE, the RNC makes blind handover decision. For details, see Handover Feature Parameter Description.
Load-based Inter-Frequency Handover Based on Measurement
The load-based inter-frequency handover based on measurement can be performed if the basic congestion is caused by power or credit resource.
Load-based inter-frequency handovers triggered by code resource congestion support blind handovers but do not support measurement-based handovers.
If the InterFreqLDHOMethodSelection parameter is set to MEASUREHO, the load-based inter-frequency handover is performed based on measurement. The LDR algorithm is implemented by performing the following steps:
1. The RNC selects the UE whose service types are not restricted for LDR handover by parameter InterFreqLdHoForbidenTC, and then sorts the selected UEs according to their integrated priority and performs load-based inter-frequency handover based on measurement on the UE with the lowest integrated priority.
If the basic congestion is caused by the credit resource, only UEs processing PS services are selected as candidate UEs. This is the same as in cases of blind handovers.
2. The RNC selects the candidate cells that meet the following conditions:
− The cell is an inter-frequency neighboring cell of the current cell and is controlled by the same RNC.
− The frequency of the cell is within the band supported by the UE.
− The cell meets the following conditions on load margin:
a. If the basic congestion is caused by power resource:
If the cell does not support DC-HSDPA, the algorithm checks whether the UL/DL load margin of the target cell is higher than UlInterFreqHoCellLoadSpaceThd / DlInterFreqHoCellLoadSpaceThd and whether the load of the target cell is normal.
If the cell supports DC-HSDPA, the cell and its corresponding cell group must have sufficient load margin. That is, the load margin of the cell group must be greater than twice the value for DlInterFreqHoCellLoadSpaceThd and the load margin of the cell must be greater than DlInterFreqHoCellLoadSpaceThd.
b. If the basic congestion is caused by the credit resource:
UL credit margin for LDR in the candidate cell > Credit resource corresponding to the SF specified by UlInterFreqHoCeLDRSpaceThd
The UL credit margin for LDR is calculated by subtracting the credit resource corresponding to the SF specified by UlLdrCreditSfResThd from the remaining credit resource in the cell group or under the NodeB. The UL credit margin for LDR equals the smaller one of the UL credit margin for LDR in the cell group and that under the NodeB.
And the load state of target cell is normal.
− The DrdOrLdrFlag parameter of the cell is set to True, indicating that the cell can be measured.
− If the NbmLdcUeSelSwitch parameter is set to NBM_LDC_MATCH_UE_ONLY, the cell must support the service requested by the UE.
− If the UESpdOptSwitch parameter is set to ON, the RNC identifies high-speed users. To high-speed users, the value of HCSPrio for candidate cells must be higher than that for the serving cell. For details on how to identify high-speed users, see Handover Feature Parameter Description.
If such candidate cells do not exist, the load-based inter-frequency handover action fails and the algorithm takes the next action.
If such candidate cells exist, the following step is performed.

1. The RNC issues a measurement control message to the UE, requesting the UE to measure the signal quality of all candidate cells.
2. The UE measures the RSCP and Ec/N0 of the candidate cells and periodically reports the measurement results to the RNC. The reporting period is specified by the PrdReportInterval parameter.
3. Based on the received measurement results, the RNC selects the candidate cells. The candidate cells must meet the following conditions:
− The cell is not in the basic congestion state.
− The measured RSCP is higher than the RSCP threshold that is specified by the TargetFreqThdRscp parameter.
− The measured Ec/N0 is higher than the Ec/N0 threshold that is specified by the TargetFreqThdEcN0 parameter.
If such candidate cells do not exist, the load-based inter-frequency handover action fails and the algorithm takes the next action.
If such candidate cells exist, the following step is performed.
4. The RNC selects the cell with the highest priority from the candidate cells to perform inter-frequency hard handover.
− If the handover succeeds, the LDR action is complete.
− If the handover fails, the RNC tries accessing the cell with the second highest priority to perform inter-frequency hard handover until the handover succeeds or it has attempted to access all the candidate cells.
If the compressed mode is required for the UE to perform inter-frequency measurement, the RNC starts the inter-frequency measurement timer (specified by the InterFreqMeasTime parameter) as soon as the measurement control message is issued. If inter-frequency handover remains unsuccessful until the timer expires, the RNC stops the inter-frequency measurement and cancels the compressed mode.
8.3.2 BE Rate Reduction
When admission control of Power/NodeB Credit is disabled, do not configure the BE Rate Reduction as an LDR action in order to avoid ping-pong effect.
BE rate reduction can only be performed when the DRA_DCCC_SWITCH sub-parameter of the DraSwitch parameter is set to 1.
The LDR algorithm operates as follows:
1. Based on the integrated priority, the algorithm sorts the BE RABs in descending order.
2. The algorithm selects the BE RABs that meet the following condition:
− The current rate of the BE RAB is higher than the GBR specified by running the SET UUSERGBR command.
− The BE RAB has the lower integrated priorities.
The number of selected RABs is specified by the UlLdrBERateReductionRabNum or DlLdrBERateReductionRabNum parameter.
If the integrated priorities of some RABs are identical, the RAB with the highest rate is selected.
3. If services can be selected, the action is successful. If services cannot be selected, the action fails. The algorithm takes the next action.
4. The bandwidth of the selected services is reduced to the specified rate. For details about the rate reduction procedure, see DCCC Feature Parameter Description.

5. The reconfiguration is complete as indicated by the RADIO BEARER RECONFIGURATION message on the Uu interface and through the synchronized radio link reconfiguration procedure on the Iub interface.
8.3.3 QoS Renegotiation for Uncontrollable Real-Time Services
This section describes the WRFD-010506 RAB Quality of Service Renegotiation over Iu Interface feature.
Uncontrollable real-time services refer to PS streaming services. The load can be reduced by adjusting the rates of real-time services through QoS renegotiation.
The uncontrollable real-time service cannot perform rate down automatically like BE service due to the QoS requirement. That is, GBR is specified in RAB assignment procedure and must be guaranteed. When the system needs to adjust service rate to relieve the system load, the RNC has to initiate a rate renegotiation over the Iu interface by requesting a new RAB parameters with a lower bit rate for real time service using RAB Modification procedure.
The RNC will request a new MBR and GBR that are the lowest ones among the alternative configurations in the RAB ASSIGNMENT message from the CN. However, the CN can decide how to react to the request upon reception of the RAB MODIFY REQUEST message.
The LDR algorithm operates as follows:
1. Based on the integrated priority, the algorithm sorts the RABs for real-time services in the PS domain in descending order.
2. The algorithm selects the RABs with the lowest integrated priorities for QoS renegotiation. The number of selected RABs is specified by the UlLdrPsRTQosRenegRabNum or DlLdrPsRTQosRenegRabNum parameter. If the RNC cannot find an appropriate service for the QoS renegotiation, the action fails. The algorithm takes the next action.
3. The algorithm performs QoS renegotiation for the selected services. The GBR during the service setup is the minimum rate of the service after the QoS renegotiation.
4. The RNC initiates the RAB MODIFY REQUEST message to the CN for the QoS renegotiation. Upon reception of the RAB MODIFY REQUEST message, the CN sends the RAB ASSIGNMENT REQUEST message to the RNC for RAB parameter reconfiguration.
8.3.4 Inter-RAT Handover in the CS Domain
This action can only be performed when the CS inter-RAT handover algorithm is enabled.
The size and coverage mode of a 2G cell are different from those of a 3G cell. Therefore, inter-RAT blind handover is not considered.
Inter-RAT handover in the CS domain involves the following actions.
Inter-RAT Should Be Load-based Handover in the CS Domain
The LDR algorithm operates as follows:
1. Based on the integrated priority, the algorithm sorts the UEs with the "service handover" IE set to "handover to GSM should be performed" in the CS domain in descending order.
2. The algorithm selects the UEs with the lowest integrated priorities. The number of selected UEs is specified by the UlCSInterRatShouldBeHOUeNum or DlCSInterRatShouldBeHOUeNum parameter.
3. For the selected UEs, the LDR module sends the load-based handover command to the inter-RAT handover module, requesting the inter-RAT handover module to hand over the UEs to the 2G system.

4. The handover module decides to trigger the inter-RAT handover, depending on the capability of the UE to support the compressed mode.
5. If a UE that meets the handover criteria is not found, the algorithm takes the next action.
Inter-RAT Should Not Be Load-based Handover in the CS Domain
The algorithm for this action is the same as that for the action "Inter-RAT Should Be Load-based Handover in the CS Domain". The difference is that this action involves only CS users with the "service handover" IE set to "handover to GSM should not be performed".
The number of selected UEs is specified by the UlCSInterRatShouldNotHOUeNum or DlCSInterRatShouldNotHOUeNum parameter.
8.3.5 Inter-RAT Handover in the PS Domain
This action can only be performed when the PS inter-RAT handover algorithm is enabled.
Inter-RAT handover in the PS domain involves the following actions.
Inter-RAT Should Be Load-based Handover in the PS Domain
The algorithm for this action is the same as that for the action "Inter-RAT Should Be Load-based Handover in the CS Domain". The difference is that this action involves only PS users with the "service handover" IE set to "handover to GSM should be performed".
The number of controlled UEs is determined by the UlPSInterRatShouldBeHOUeNum or DlPSInterRatShouldBeHOUeNum parameter.
Inter-RAT Should Not Be Load-based Handover in the PS Domain
The algorithm for this action is the same as that for the action "Inter-RAT Should Not Be Load-based Handover in the CS Domain". The difference is that this action involves only PS users with the "service handover" IE set to "handover to GSM should not be performed".
The number of controlled UEs is specified by the UlPSInterRatShouldNotHOUeNum or DlPSInterRatShouldNotHOUeNum parameter.
HSPA services can be selected only when HsdpaCMPermissionInd is set to TRUE and HsupaCMPermissionInd is not set to Limited.
For details about the two parameters, see Handover Feature Parameter Description.
8.3.6 AMR Rate Reduction
This action can only be performed when the sub-parameter CS_AMRC_SWITCH of the parameter CsSwitch is set to 1.
AMR Rate Reduction in the Downlink
In the downlink, the LDR algorithm operates as follows:
1. Based on the integrated priority, the algorithm sorts the AMR RABs in descending order.
2. The algorithm selects the RABs with the lowest integrated priorities and with the rates higher than the GBR for AMR services (conversational). The number of selected RABs is specified by the DlLdrAMRRateReductionRabNum parameter. If the RNC cannot find an appropriate RAB for the AMR rate reduction, the action fails. The algorithm takes the next action.
3. The RNC sends the rate control request message through the Iu interface to the CN to adjust the AMR rate to the GBR.

AMR Rate Reduction in the Uplink
In the uplink, the LDR algorithm operates as follows:

2. The algorithm selects the RABs with the lowest integrated priorities and with the rates higher than the GBR for AMR services (conversational). The number of selected RABs is determined by the UlLdrAMRRateReductionRabNum parameter. If the RNC cannot find an appropriate RAB for the AMR rate reduction, the action fails. The algorithm takes the next action.
3. The RNC sends the TFC CONTROL command to the UE to adjust the AMR rate to the GBR.
8.3.7 Code Reshuffling
This section describes the WRFD-020108 Code Resource Management feature.
To optimize the code usage efficiency, the "left most" principle is adopted in initial code allocation procedure, that is, the code with minimum SF is reserved to ensure that the codes are available for use continuously. However, the code tree may not obey the "left most" principle during actual use. Code reshuffling can be used to make the code tree obey "left most" principle.
When the cell is in the basic congestion state caused by code resource, code reshuffling can be performed to reserve sufficient code resource for subsequent services. Code sub-tree adjustment refers to the switching of users from one code sub-tree to another. It is used for decreasing the code fragments to release smaller codes first.
The algorithm operates as follows:
1. Initializes SF_Cur to CellLdrSfResThd.
2. Traverses all the sub-trees with this SF_Cur at the root node except the sub-trees occupied by common channels and HSDPA channels, and takes the sub-trees in which the number of users is not larger than the value of MaxUserNumCodeAdj as candidate sub-trees for code reshuffling.
− If such candidate sub-trees are available, the algorithm goes to step 3.
− If no such candidate sub-tree is available, sub-tree selection fails. This procedure ends.
3. Selects a sub-tree from the candidate sub-trees according to the setting of LdrCodePriUseInd.
− If this parameter is set to TRUE, the algorithm selects the sub-tree with the largest code number from the candidates.
− If this parameter is set to FALSE, the algorithm selects the sub-tree with the smallest number of users from the candidates. if multiple sub-trees have the same number of users, the algorithm selects the sub-tree with the largest code number.
4. Treats each user in the sub-tree as a new user and allocates code resource to each user.
5. Initiates the reconfiguration procedure for each user in the sub-tree and reconfigures the channelization codes of the users to the newly allocated code resource.
The reconfiguration procedure on the UU interface is initiated through the PHYSICAL CHANNEL RECONFIGURATION message and that on the Iub interface through the RL RECONFIGURATION message.
The following figure shows an example of code reshuffling. In this example, CellLdrSfResThd is set to SF8, and MaxUserNumCodeAdj is set to 1.

8.3.8 MBMS Power Reduction
Some MBMS-related algorithms do not take effect on the BSC6910 because the BSC6910 does not support MBMS-related features.
The downlink power load can be reduced by lowering the power on MBMS traffic channels.
The algorithm operates as follows:
1. Based on the integrated priority, the algorithm sorts the RABs in descending order.
2. The algorithm selects a RAB with the lowest integrated priority and with the current power higher than the minimum transmit power of the corresponding MTCH. That is, it selects an RAB whose ARP value is higher than MbmsDecPowerRabThd.
3. The algorithm triggers a reconfiguration procedure to set the power to the minimum transmit power of the FACH onto which the MTCH is mapped.
The reconfiguration procedure on the Iub interface is implemented through the COMMON TRANSPORT CHANNEL RECONFIGURATION REQUEST message.
8.3.9 PS Inter-RAT Handover from UMTS to LTE
This section describes the WRFD-150216 Load Based PS Redirection from UMTS to LTE feature and the WRFD-150217 Load Based PS Handover from UMTS to LTE feature.
If PS inter-RAT handover from UMTS to LTE is triggered when UMTS cells are in the basic congestion state, the RNC redirects or switches only the PS services of UL dual-mode or GUL triple-mode UEs to LTE cells. This helps balance inter-RAT load and improve user experience.
PS inter-RAT handover from UMTS to LTE is controlled by PSInterU2LLDHO under the DlLdrFirstAction parameter. This LDR action is implemented as follows:
1. After the PS inter-RAT handover from UMTS to LTE is triggered when UMTS cells are in the basic congestion state, the RNC determines whether to allow UMTS-to-LTE PS redirection or handovers.
2. The RNC allows UMTS-to-LTE PS redirection or handovers when all of the following conditions are met:
There are no CS RABs among the UE's RABs.
All RABs of the UE can be handed over or redirected to LTE cells.

− A RAB can be handed over or redirected to LTE cells only when the IE "E-UTRAN Service Handover" in the RAB ASSIGNMENT REQUEST message is null and HO_TO_EUTRAN_SHOULD_BE_PERFORM under the EUTRANSHIND parameter in the ADD UTYPRABBASIC command is selected.
− If the value of the IE "E-UTRAN Service Handover" in the RAB ASSIGNMENT REQUEST message is "Handover to E-UTRAN shall not be performed", a RAB cannot be handed over or redirected to LTE cells.
The UEs are UL dual-mode UEs or GUL triple-mode UEs.
There is LTE coverage.
− If HO_U2L_REDIR_BASED_ABSOLUTE_FREQ_SWITCH under the HoSwitch1 parameter is cleared, the current UMTS cell must be configured with neighboring LTE cells.
− If HO_U2L_REDIR_BASED_ABSOLUTE_FREQ_SWITCH under the HoSwitch1 parameter is selected, the current UMTS cell must be configured with LTE frequencies. For details about how to configure LTE frequencies, see Interoperability Between UMTS and LTE Feature Parameter Description.
The UMTS to LTE redirection switch based on absolution frequency is controlled by HO_U2L_REDIR_BASED_ABSOLUTE_FREQ_SWITCH under the HoSwitch1 parameter.
The load-based PS redirection or handover from UMTS to LTE function is enabled.
− The general switch for UMTS-to-LTE PS interoperations is turned on, that is, HO_LTE_PS_OUT_SWITCH under the HoSwitch parameter is selected.
− To Load Based PS Redirection from UMTS to LTE feature, the PS inter-RAT handover from UMTS to LTE function must be enabled.
− To activate the Load Based PS Handover from UMTS to LTE feature, the PS handover from UMTS to LTE function must be enabled and HO_U2L_REDIR_BASED_ABSOLUTE_FREQ_SWITCH under the HoSwitch1 parameter must be cleared.
For details about redirection and handovers, see Interoperability Between UMTS and LTE Feature Parameter Description.
3. The RNC selects UEs to perform the PS inter-RAT handover from UMTS to LTE LDR action.
After allowing UMTS-to-LTE PS redirection for handovers, the RNC selects UEs to perform this LDR action.
a The RNC puts UL or GUL UEs that processes only PS services into a list.
b The RNC selects UEs that did not perform PS handovers from UMTS to LTE.
c The RNC arranges the selected UEs according to the user integrated priority. Then the RNC selects several UEs to perform this LDR action in ascending order of user integrated priority.
For uplink LDR actions, the number of UEs is specified by the UlPSU2LHOUeNum parameter. For downlink LDR actions, the number of UEs is specified by the DlPSU2LHOUeNum parameter.
If the UEs have the same user integrated priority, they will be selected randomly. Suppose there are five UEs (UE A, UE B, UE C, UE D, and UE E) and the user integrated priority is A < B = C = D < E. If three UEs are to be selected, the RNC preferentially selects UE A and then selects any two UEs among UEs B, C, and D.
8.3.10 LDR Actions of One UE in the Uplink and Downlink
In most cases, uplink and downlink LDR actions are independent of each other. Sometimes, these LDR actions may be performed by the same UE.
If the uplink and downlink are going to perform same LDR actions, these LDR actions can be performed simultaneously in the uplink and downlink of the same UE.

For example, BE service rate reduction must be performed simultaneously in the uplink and downlink of the same UE. In this situation, the RNC sends only one RADIO BEARER RECONFIGURATION message, indicating that BE service rate reduction is performed simultaneously in the uplink and downlink of this UE.
If the uplink and downlink are going to perform different LDR actions, these LDR actions can be performed as follows:
− If uplink LDR actions are inter-frequency or inter-RAT handovers, or PS inter-RAT handovers from UMTS to LTE, LDR actions can only be performed in the uplink.
− If downlink LDR actions are inter-frequency or inter-RAT handovers, or PS inter-RAT handover from UMTS to LTE, LDR actions can only be performed in the downlink.
LDR actions are performed in the direction with fewer UEs.

9 Overload Control
This chapter describes the WRFD-020107 Overload Control feature.
After the UE access is allowed, the power consumed by a single link is adjusted by the single link power control function. The power varies with factors such as the mobility of the UE and the changes in the environment. In some situations, the total power load of the cell can be higher than the target load. To ensure the system stability, OLC must be performed.
9.1 Overload Triggering
Only the power resource and Iub bandwidth may result in the overload congestion state. Hard resources such as the ENU and credit resource do not cause overload congestion.
For details about overload congestion caused by Iub bandwidth, see Transmission Resource Management Feature Parameter Description.
For the overload triggered by power resources, the downlink OLC algorithm will trigger overload based on total TCP load in the R99 cell or the load of non-HSPA power and HSDPA GBP in the HSDPA cell. The uplink OLC algorithm selection depends on the following conditions:
If the parameter NBMUlCacAlgoSelSwitch is set to ALGORITHM_First, ALGORITHM_THIRD, or ALGORITHM_OFF, the uplink OLC algorithm will trigger overload based on total RTWP load of the cell.
If the parameter NBMUlCacAlgoSelSwitch is set to ALGORITHM_FORTH, the uplink OLC algorithm will trigger overload based on the total uplink load corresponding to the actual uplink service load.
If the measurement on the total uplink load corresponding to the actual uplink service load is unavailable, for example, when the relevant NodeB boards cannot report the measurement results, the uplink OLC algorithm will trigger overload based on total RTWP load of the cell.
OLC can be enabled through the UL_UU_OLC and DL_UU_OLC sub-parameters of the NBMLdcAlgoSwitch parameter.
The following figure shows the triggering and release of cell power overload.

Figure 9-1 Triggering and release of cell power overload
As shown in Figure 9-1, if the UL/DL load of the cell is higher than or equal to the UlOlcTrigThd or DlOlcTrigThd for a hysteresis time, the cell is in the overload state, and the related overload handling action is taken. If the current UL/DL load of the cell is lower than the UlOlcRelThd or DlOlcRelThd for a hysteresis time, the overload state of the cell is released and the related overload handling is stopped.
For the downlink, the hysteresis time is specified by the parameter DlLdTrnsHysTime; for the uplink, the hysteresis time
is 600 ms.
The UL or DL OLC trigger threshold of a DC-HSDPA cell group equals the sum of the UL or DL OLC trigger thresholds of the two cells in this group. The UL or DL OLC relief threshold of a DC-HSDPA cell group equals the sum of the UL or DL OLC relief thresholds of the two cells in this group. If a DC-HSDPA cell group is overloaded, the related overload handling is performed in each cell separately.
In a DC-HSUPA cell, OLC triggering and execution happen in the two cells respectively.
In addition to periodic measurement, event-triggered measurement is applicable to OLC.
If the sub-parameter OLC_EVENTMEAS of the parameter NBMLdcAlgoSwitch is set to 1, the RNC sends the NodeB a request for event measurement based on power resource. In the associated request message, the reporting criterion is specified, including the hysteresis time, the related OLC thresholds. Then the NodeB checks the current power load in real time according to this criterion and reports the status to the RNC periodically if the conditions of reporting are met.
Limited by 3GPP, the NodeB cannot check the total load of the non-HSDPA power and the GBP. Therefore, the recommended setting of OLC_EVENTMEAS is 0 for HSDPA cells.
9.2 General OLC Procedure
When the cell is overloaded, the RNC takes one of the following actions in each period specified by the OlcPeriodTimerLen parameter until the congestion is relieved:

The following figure shows the OLC procedure.
Figure 9-2 OLC procedure
As shown in the preceding figure, the OLC procedure is as follows:
1. The OLC takes the first action to perform TF control.
− If the TF control succeeds, the OLC checks whether the system is overloaded. If yes, the OLC performs TF control again.
− If the TF control fails, go to step 2.
2. The OLC takes the second action to switch BE services to common channels.
− If the switching succeeds, the OLC checks whether the system is overloaded. If yes, the OLC switches BE services to common channels again.
− If the switching fails, go to step 3.
3. The OLC takes the third action to adjust the maximum FACH transmit power.
− If the adjustment succeeds, the OLC checks whether the system is overloaded. If yes, the OLC adjusts the power again.
− If the adjustment fails, the OLC takes the fourth action to release some RABs.
For details about OLC actions, see section 9.3 "OLC Actions."

Moreover, when the cell is in the overload congestion state:
The state transition from FACH to DCH is prohibited.
When the FACH_UU_ADCTRL sub-parameter of NBMCacAlgoSwitch parameter is set to ON, the admission for users over FACH or enhanced FACH channels (HS-DSCH) is prohibited.
When the FACH_UU_ADCTRL sub-parameter of NBMCacAlgoSwitch parameter is set to OFF, the admission decision for users over FACH or enhanced FACH channels(HS-DSCH) is allowed.
The admission for resource requests of RRC connection setup whose cause is emergency call, detach, or registration is always allowed. This is because the priority of such requests is high.
9.3 OLC Actions
9.3.1 Performing TF Control of BE Services
OLC Algorithm for TF Control in the Downlink
For the TF control in the downlink, the OLC algorithm operates as follows:
1. Based on the integrated priority, the algorithm sorts the RABs in descending order.
2. The algorithm selects the following RABs:
− DCH RABs with the rates higher than DlDcccRateThd. For details about the parameter, see DCCC Feature Parameter Description.
− RABs with the lowest integrated priorities.
The number of RABs selected is smaller than or equal to DlOlcFTFRstrctRabNum.
If the RNC cannot find an appropriate service for the TF control, the OLC takes the next action.
3. The RNC sends the TF control indication message to the MAC. Each MAC of the selected RABs will receive one TF control indication message and will restrict the transport format combination (TFC) selection of the BE services to reduce the data rate step by step.
The MAC restricts the TFC selection according to the following formula:
TFmax(N+1) = TFmax(N) x Ratelimitcoeff
where:
− TFmax(0) is the maximum TB number of the BE service before the service is selected for TF control.
− TFmax(N+1) is the maximum TB number during the period from (T0 + RateRstrctTimerLen x N) to (T0 + RateRstrctTimerLen x (N + 1)), where T0 is the time when the MAC receives the TF control indication message.
− Ratelimitcoeff is specified by the RateRstrctCoef parameter.
4. If the number of times that TF control is performed exceeds DlOlcFTFRstrctTimes, the action fails. The OLC takes the next action.
5. If the congestion is relieved, the RNC sends the congestion relief indication to the MAC. At the same time, the rate recovery timer (RateRecoverTimerLen) is started. When this timer expires, the MAC increases the data rate step by step.
MAC recovers the TFC selection by calculating the maximum TB number according to the following formula:
TFmax(N+1) = TFmax(N) x RateRecoverCoeff
Here:
− TFmax(0) is the maximum TB number of the BE service before congestion relief indication is received.

− TFmax(N+1) is the maximum TB number during the period from (T1 + RateRecoverTimerLen x N) to (T1 + (RateRecoverTimerLen x (N + 1)), where T1 is the time when the MAC receives the congestion relief indication message.
− RateRecoverCoeff is specified by the RecoverCoef parameter.
OLC Algorithm for TF Control in the Uplink
For a UE with the DCH service, the RNC sends a TRANSPORT FORMAT COMBINATION CONTROL message to the UE to restrict the TFC of the UE, according to the 3GPP TS25.331. The UE does not reply to the RNC before the procedure is performed successfully.
For the TF control in the uplink, the OLC algorithm operates as follows:
1. Based on the integrated priority, the algorithm sorts the DCH RABs in descending order.
2. The algorithm selects the following RABs:
− RABs with the rates higher than UlDcccRateThd. For details about the parameter, see DCCC Feature Parameter Description.
− RABs with the lowest integrated priorities.
The number of selected RABs is specified by the UlOlcFTFRstrctRabNum parameter.
If the RNC cannot find an appropriate service, the OLC performs the next action.
3. The RNC sends the TRANSPORT FORMAT COMBINATION CONTROL message to the UE that accesses the specified service. This message contains the following IEs:
− Transport Format Combination Set Identity: defines the available TFC that the UE can select, that is, the restricted TFC sub-set. It is always the two TFCs corresponding to the lowest data rate.
− TFC Control Duration: defines the period the restricted TFC sub-set is to be applied. It is set to a random value (integer multiples of 10 ms) from the range of 10 ms to 5120 ms to avoid data rate upsizing at the same time.
After the TFC control duration expires, the UE can apply for any TFC of TFCS before the TF control.
4. If the number of times that TF control is performed exceeds UlOlcFTFRstrctTimes, the action fails. The OLC takes the next action.
9.3.2 Switching BE Services to Common Channels
Whether the selected UEs can be switched to common channels depends on the setting of DRA_PS_BE_STATE_TRANS_SWITCH, DRA_HSDPA_STATE_TRANS_SWITCH, or DRA_HSUPA_STATE_TRANS_SWITCH in the parameter DraSwitch.
For the switching of uplink BE services to common channels, if the control RTWP anti-interference function switch (NBMCacAlgoSwitch: RTWP_RESIST_DISTURB) is turned on, the RNC checks whether the uplink equivalent user load proportion of the cell is lower than 40%. If it is lower than 40%, the RNC does not perform this operation.
For switching BE services to common channels, the OLC algorithm operates as follows:
1. Based on the integrated priority, the algorithm sorts all the UEs in the PS domain in descending order.
2. The algorithm selects the UEs with the lowest integrated priorities. The number of selected UEs is specified by TransCchUserNum. If the selection fails, the OLC takes the next action.
This function is disabled when the TransCchUserNum parameter is set to 0.
3. The OLC switches the selected UEs to common channels.

9-6
If both the selected UEs and the current cell support enhanced CELL_FACH, these UEs can be switched to the enhanced CELL_FACH state.
9.3.3 Adjusting the Maximum FACH TX Power
The procedure for adjusting the maximum FACH transmit power is as follows:
1. Set the maximum FACH transmit power to the target maximum transmit power. The target maximum transmit power is calculated according to the following formula:
Ptarget = Pmax - Delta
− Ptarget is the target maximum transmit power.
− Pmax is the maximum FACH transmit power (MaxFachPower).
− Delta is the FACH power reduction step (FACHPwrReduceValue).
2. If the congestion is relieved after the power adjustment, the system starts the FACH power recovery timer, which is set to 5s. When the timer expires, the maximum FACH transmit power is increased to the original maximum FACH transmit power if the system is always in the normal state before the timer expires.
The preceding power adjustment is applicable to only the FACH carrying common services rather than MBMS services.
9.3.4 Releasing Some RABs
OLC Algorithm for the Release of Some RABs in the Uplink
If the Control RTWP Anti-interference algorithm switch (NBMCacAlgoSwitch: RTWP_RESIST_DISTURB) is enabled, the RNC checks whether the uplink equivalent user load proportion of the cell is lower than 40% before performing this operation. If it is lower than 40%, the RNC does not perform this operation.
For the release of some RABs in the uplink, the OLC algorithm operates as follows:
1. Based on the integrated priority, the algorithm sorts all RABs including HSUPA and DCH services in descending order.
2. The algorithm selects the RABs with the lowest integrated priorities. If the integrated priorities of some RABs are identical, it selects the RAB with a higher rate (that is, the current rate for DCH RAB or the GBR for HSUPA RAB) in the uplink. The number of selected RABs is specified by UlOlcTraffRelRabNum.
3. The selected RABs are released directly.
OLC Algorithm for the Release of Some RABs in the Downlink
Some MBMS-related algorithms do not take effect on the BSC6910 because the BSC6910 does not support MBMS-related features.
For the release of some RABs in the downlink, the OLC algorithm operates as follows:
If the SeqOfUserRel parameter is set to USER_REL, then:
1. Based on the integrated priority, the algorithm sorts all non-MBMS RABs in descending order.
2. The algorithm selects the RABs with the lowest integrated priorities. If the integrated priorities of some RABs are identical, it selects the RAB with a higher rate (that is, the current rate for DCH RAB or the GBR for HSDPA RAB) in the downlink. The number of selected RABs is specified by DlOlcTraffRelRabNum.
3. The selected RABs are directly released.

4. If all non-MBMS RABs are released but congestion persists in the downlink, MBMS RABs are selected.
If the SeqOfUserRel parameter is set to MBMS_REL, then:
1. Based on the ARP, the algorithm sorts all MBMS RABs in descending order.
2. The algorithm selects the RABs with the lowest integrated priorities. The number of selected RABs is specified by MbmsOlcRelNum.
3. The selected RABs are directly released.
4. If all MBMS RABs are released but congestion persists in the downlink, non-MBMS RABs are selected.
This function is disabled when the UlOlcTraffRelRabNum, DlOlcTraffRelRabNum, and MbmsOlcRelNum parameters are set to 0.
The higher the value of UlOlcTraffRelRabNum or DlOlcTraffRelRabNum, the more the cell load decreases, which will
affect the users experience negatively.

10 Network Impact
10.1 Inter-Frequency Load Balancing
10.1.1 Network Performance
Inter-frequency load balancing based on uplink credit resource enables some UEs to be handed over to an inter-frequency neighboring cell when the current cell is in the basic congestion state. In this way, the admission failures due to CE resource congestion decrease.
In addition, this feature makes UEs processing PS services more likely to perform inter-frequency handovers. This may slightly increase the PS call drop rate.
10.2 Inter-Frequency Load Balancing Based on Configurable Load Threshold
10.2.1 System Capacity
With CLB, a heavily loaded cell can be relieved, and the resources of a lightly loaded cell can be fully utilized, increasing the whole system capacity.
10.2.2 Network Performance
CLB improves the coverage performance of a heavily loaded cell.
The impact of CLB on network performance in different scenarios is as follows:
Macro and micro combined network using different frequencies
CLB offloads HSPA services on the macro network to the micro network. Resources of the micro network deployed at hot spots are fully utilized and the quality of HSPA services after handovers is ensured. In addition, the quality of CS services on the macro network is improved after the network load decreases.
Overlay network
CLB supports inter-frequency load balancing for UEs in connected mode under different RNCs in an overlay network, enabling effective network resource utilization of different vendors. The sector capacity is expanded, and key performance indicators (KPIs) of heavily loaded cells are improved.
When CLB is implemented between different RNCs on the overlay network, ping-pong handovers may occur because an RNC cannot obtain the information about the load of inter-frequency neighboring cells under the neighboring RNC. Therefore, a load evaluation algorithm has been added to evaluate the load of inter-frequency neighboring cells. If the number of failed inter-frequency handovers during a certain period of time exceeds a preset threshold, a penalty timer is triggered and UEs cannot be handed over to the inter-frequency neighboring cell until the penalty timer expires. However, ping-pong handovers may still occur because this load evaluation algorithm makes a rough estimate of the load of inter-frequency neighboring cells.
Other scenarios
CLB is used in other scenarios the similar way the WRFD-020103 Inter-Frequency Load Balance feature is used. The difference is that CLB can implement load balancing before a cell enters the basic congestion state so that the traffic load can evenly be distributed among cells. CLB helps prevent a cell from being heavily loaded or having deteriorated KPIs.

− More inter-frequency handovers may reduce the success rate of inter-frequency handovers and increase the call drop rate.

KPI Type KPI Impact
Access RRC Setup Success Ratio
This feature redirects UEs at the cell edge or in cells with excessive coverage problems to inter-frequency neighboring cells, which increases the RRC setup success rate. The RRC CONNECTION REJECT messages from RRC redirections based on distance (including inter-RAT and inter-frequency redirections) are not considered as RRC connection setup failures. Therefore, such rejections do not affect the RRC setup success rate.
Maintainability Call Drop Ratio This feature redirects UEs at the cell edge or in cells with excessive coverage problems to inter-frequency neighboring cells, which reduces the call drop rate.
10.4 RRC Redirection for Service Steering
10.4.1 System Capacity
No impact.
10.4.2 Network Performance
During the RRC connection setup procedure, this feature performs inter-frequency or inter-RAT service steering and load sharing based on the RRC connection setup cause. This feature performs load sharing with the consideration of the signal quality, load, and the redirection percentage of the cell the UE accesses. This feature also affects the access delay of UEs that are to be redirected to inter-frequency or inter-RAT cells.
10.5 FACH Power Control of RRC phase
10.5.1 System Capacity
The FACH power control of RRC phase function increases the FACH transmit power. As a result, the amount of power available for dedicated channels decrease. This reduces downlink cell/UE throughput and the R99 UE admission rate.

Suppose that the cell transmit power is 20 W, the P-CPICH transmit power is 10% of the cell transmit power, and the FACH transmit power is 1 dB. If an additional 2 dB power is to be added, the amount of power available for the dedicated channel may be insufficient and five AMR UEs may not be admitted into this cell.
10.5.2 Network Performance
This function increases the downlink FACH power and therefore UEs can receive messages more accurately. When RRC connection setups fail due to Uu-interface synchronization timeout, this function increases the RRC connection setup success rate. How well the RRC connection setup success rate can be improved is determined by coverage and interference in the live network. If the contribution of weak coverage to RRC connection setup failures is small or if interference in the live network is strong, the improvement of the RRC connection setup success rate is not noticeable.
The smaller the increased FACH power MaxFachPower, the less noticeable the improvement of the RRC connection setup success rate.
The larger the increased FACH transmit power, the stronger the interference. In this situation, downlink coverage will deteriorate, which may increase the call drop rate.
10.6 Anti-Imbalance of the Different Antenna
10.6.1 System Capacity and Network Performance
This function has the following impacts on system capacity and network performance.
This function corrects the measured RTWP and uplink load in the following scenarios:
− Imbalanced interference
The corrected RTWP and uplink load is smaller than the original values.
a. When interference between antennas is imbalanced and the RTWP-based anti-interference function is disabled (RTWP_RESIST_DISTURB under the NBMCacAlgoSwitch parameter is cleared), this function increases the access success rate if an uplink power resource admission fails. Ultimately, this function increases the number of online UEs.
b. When interference between antennas is imbalanced and the RTWP-based anti-interference function is enabled (RTWP_RESIST_DISTURB under the NBMCacAlgoSwitch is selected), this function reduces the admission error rate. This reduces the number of online UEs and the call drop rate.
c. When services are being processed, this function improves HSUPA throughout if data source is sufficient. However, this increases the RTWP per antenna. As a result, uplink coverage shrinks and the call drop rate increases.
d. The decrease of the RTWP reduces RACH receive power. This improves uplink Uu-interface capacity and increases the access delay.
− Invalid antennas
a. When the RTWP-based anti-interference function is disabled (RTWP_RESIST_DISTURB under the NBMCacAlgoSwitch parameter is cleared), this function does not take effect.
b. When the RTWP-based anti-interference function is enabled (RTWP_RESIST_DISTURB under the NBMCacAlgoSwitch parameter is selected), the measured uplink load is corrected (the corrected value is larger than the original value). This reduces the admission error rate and improves uplink coverage. As a result, the call drop rate is reduced. In addition, the access success rate and the number of online UEs decrease.
c. When services are being processed, the measured uplink load is corrected (the corrected value is larger than the original value) if the WRFD-020136 Anti-Interference Scheduling for HSUPA

feature is activated. This feature improves uplink coverage and reduces the call drop rate. However, the HSUPA throughput is also reduced.
The RTWP-based anti-interference function takes effect only when ALGORITHM_FOURTH under the
NBMUlCacAlgoSelSwitch parameter is selected.
When several HSUPA UEs are going to transmit a large amount of data simultaneously, the rise over thermal (RoT) will become high due to HSUPA scheduling. In this case, the RTWPs of two antennas are almost the same and the gains provided by this function are not noticeable because the corrected RTWP is almost the same as the original RTWP.
Although this function increases the NodeB CPU usage, the increase is not noticeable because the load on a CPU with a 1 GHz main frequency is only 0.001%.

10.7 WRFD-150236 Load Based Dynamic Adjustment of PCPICH
10.7.1 System Capacity
This feature reduces the P-CPICH transmit power when downlink non-HSPA load in a cell is heavy. This reduces power consumption of common channels and cell coverage. In this situation, cell-edge UEs are handed over to neighboring cells, which reduces downlink non-HSPA load and increases downlink capacity of the current cell.
For example, the value for PCPICHPower is 10% of the value for MaxTxPower and the maximum P-CPICH power reduction is 3 dB. If downlink non-HSPA load in a cell is extremely high and the number of UEs in this cell is large, this feature saves 10% to 15% of downlink non-HSPA cell power. The saved power can admit 10% to 15% extra UEs or increase at least 5% of the average cell throughput.
The P-CPICH transmit power can be higher than the value for PCPICHPower. In this case, cell coverage will increase but the available HSDPA power will decrease. This reduces average HSDPA throughput if there are data transmission requirements.
10.7.2 Network Performance
This feature reduces the P-CPICH transmit power when downlink non-HSPA load in a cell is heavy. As result, downlink non-HSPA cell load is reduced. When downlink power resources are congested, this feature increases the access success rate during busy hours.
However, after the reduction of P-CPICH transmit power, cell coverage shrinks, leading to coverage holes. Coverage holes cause the access success rate and the call drop rate for cell-edge UEs to deteriorate. This increases the number of handovers. In multi-carrier scenarios, cells that have the same coverage now may have different coverage. This affects the camping policy and increases the blind-handover failure probability (Blind handovers here include blind-handover-based DRD and LDR inter-frequency handovers). Ultimately, the performance of service steering will be affected.
The impact on network performance is determined by the actual cell coverage and the distribution of cell-edge UEs.
If cell coverage is good and the number of cell-edge UEs is small, handovers and the call drop rate will decrease.
If cell coverage is bad and the number of cell-edge UEs is large, handovers and the call drop rate will increase.
After the power adjustment, if more cells that have the same coverage now have different coverage, the probability of blind-handover failures will increase.

11.9.3 Performance Monitoring
Check the values of the cell-level counters VS.MeanTCP and VS.MeanRTWP of two or more cells where load balancing has been implemented. If the counter values are close, load balancing is successful for these cells.
Check the cell-level KPI Inter-Frequency Hard Handover Success Ratio after CLB is activated. If the KPI does not decrease significantly, the inter-frequency handovers for load balancing are normal after CLB is used.
11.9.4 Parameter Optimization
The effect of CLB is affected by the threshold settings for different resources. After CLB is activated, regulate the following thresholds based on the operator's requirements and load balancing effect: UlPwrCSClbTrigThd, UlPwrPSClbTrigThd, DlPwrCSClbTrigThd, DlPwrPSClbTrigThd, CellSfCSClbTrigThd, CellSfPSClbTrigThd, UlCreditCSClbTrigThd, UlCreditPSClbTrigThd, DlCreditCSClbTrigThd, and DlCreditPSClbTrigThd. If the call drop rate significantly increases or the inter-frequency handover success rate decreases, raise the preceding thresholds or lower the MaxUserNumforCLBIFHO parameter value to reduce the number of inter-frequency handovers.

Inter-frequency redirection based on distance does not select the inter-frequency neighboring cell under the DRNC as the target cell. DRD and redirection at RRC connection setup do not select the inter-frequency neighboring cell that uses a different frequency band from the cell where the RRC connection is to access.
Activation Observation
1. Start Uu Interface Trace on the RNC LMT. Under Uu Message Type, select RRC_RRC_CONN_REJ.
2. Move a UE to a position where it has a distance from the NodeB but can still detect pilot signals. Initiate a service using the UE, such as cs service.
The distance between the UE and the NodeB must be larger than InterFreqRedirDelayThd x 78.125 m/chip x 3 chips.
3. View the Uu interface tracing data.
− If the RRC CONNECTION REJECT message includes the redirectionInfo IE and this IE contains frequencyInfo (information about the cell), as shown in Figure 11-1, the RNC has redirected the UE to an inter-frequency neighboring cell and this feature has been activated.
− If the RRC CONNECTION REJECT message does not include the redirectionInfo IE, this feature has not been activated.

11.10.4 Performance Monitoring
You can use the counter VS.RRC.Rej.Redir.Dist.IntraRat to monitor Inter-Frequency Redirection Based on Distance. If the value of this counter remains steady or keeps increasing, this feature is functioning properly.
11.10.5 Troubleshooting
You can check the propagation delay of the UEs in a cell to learn whether this feature is properly triggered. If the value of the counter VS.RRC.Rej.Redir.Dist.IntraRat is not in accordance with the propagation delay of the UEs in a cell, the feature is not functioning properly. For example, the counter VS.RRC.Rej.Redir.Dist.IntraRat has a large value but the propagation delay of the UEs in a cell indicates that this large number of redirections is not reasonable. If this happens, deactivate this feature.

− Analyze the VS.RRC.FailConnEstab.NoReply counter in the live network. The RRC connection setup cause that has the largest contribution to RRC connection setup failures is the RRC connection setup cause for enabling this function.
− Determine the RRC connection setup cause whose RRC connection setup success rate needs to be improved in the live network.
Determine target cells for enabling this function:
Step 1 Determine cells that require this feature when the following requirements are met:
Most RRC connection setup failures are caused by the reason of the VS.RRC.FailConnEstab.NoReply counter. That is, most RRC connection setup failures are caused by RRC connection setup timeout.
Step 2 Select cells where downlink weak coverage has large contribution to RRC connection setup failures. For example, the contribution is larger than 50%. Collect the RRC setup success rate corresponding to the RRC connection setup cause. Compare the effect of this feature on the RRC setup success rate.
Step 3 Select cells where RRC and RAB establishment failures are caused by downlink power resource congestion. Enable this function for these cells with caution. If the number of RRC and RAB establishment failures caused by downlink power resource congestion is large, you are not advised to enable this function.
You can monitor the following counters to determine the number of RRC connection setup and RAB setup failures caused by downlink power resource congestion:
VS.RRC.Rej.DLPower.Cong

Step 3 Query the RAB connection setup success rate.
If the RAB connection setup success rate corresponding to the RRC connection setup cause decreases, collect the Ec/N0 distribution of the RACH for services that experience RAB connection setup failures during the RRC connection setup procedure. Then compare the Ec/N0 distribution with the value of the FACHPower4RRCRepEcNoThd parameter. Calculate the times when the Ec/N0 of the RACH is smaller than the value of this parameter. Compare the calculated result with the increased successful RRC connection setups. If the two numbers are almost the same, the performance of this function is as expected. The reason for comparing the two numbers is that although RRC connection setups for UEs in weak coverage areas may succeed, RAB connection setups may fail.
Step 4 Query the call drop rate in the live network.
The call drop rate is calculated as follows:
CS service drop ratio (cell) =

11.15 Anti-Imbalance of the Different Antenna
11.15.1 When to Use Anti-Imbalance of the Different Antenna
Use the anti-imbalance of the different antenna function in multi-antenna scenarios to address shrinking uplink coverage and reduced uplink capacity caused by imbalanced antenna interference or invalid antennas.
Imbalanced antenna interference is caused by improper installation or aging antennas.
It is recommended that this function be enabled for multi-antenna scenarios with intermodulation interference and invalid antennas.
Do not enable this function for multi-RRU cells, including cells with the 0.5/0.5 configuration mode, the distributed sector configuration mode, or independent demodulation of signals from multiple RRUs in one cell. Multi-RRU cells are often used for highway and tunnel coverage.
11.15.2 Required Information
Perform the following steps to determine whether there is intermodulation interference or invalid antennas in a cell.
Step 1 Observe the values of the following counters:
WCDMA RAN
Load Control 11 Engineering Guidelines
Draft A (2013-01-30) Huawei Proprietary and Confidential
Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.
11-44
On the NodeB side:
− VS.MeanRTWP.Locell.SectorEqm.Ant0
− VS.MeanRTWP.Locell.SectorEqm.Ant1
− VS.MeanRTWP.Locell.SectorEqm.Ant2
− VS.MeanRTWP.Locell.SectorEqm.Ant3
NOTE
Each of the preceding counters indicates the mean RTWP of a specific antenna.
On the RNC side: VS.MeanRTWP
NOTE
The preceding counter indicates the mean RTWP of a cell.
Step 2 Determine whether there is intermodulation interference or invalid antennas.
Intermodulation interference
Intermodulation interference exists when the following conditions are true:
− The difference between the values of the preceding counters on the NodeB side is equal to or larger than 6 dB.
− The value of the preceding counter on the RNC side is extremely high.
In normal conditions, the RTWP is 6 dB higher than the background noise (–106 dBm). The background noise varies according to networks.
Invalid antennas
Some antennas may become invalid if the RTWPs of these antennas are equal or near to the background noise while the RTWPs of other antennas are larger than the background noise.
Step 3 If the difference between the values of the preceding counters on the NodeB side is equal to or larger than 6 dB, check the settings of radio frequency (RF) channel-related parameters (such as attenuation or RTWP initial rectification value) to ensure that the difference is not caused by improper parameter settings or faulty tower mounted amplifiers (TMAs). Then determine whether to enable the anti-imbalance of the different antenna function. Enable this function only when high RTWPs are caused by intermodulation interference.

VS.MeanRTWP Mean Power of Totally Received Bandwidth for Cell
Step 2 Monitor the performance of this function.
Query the value of the VS.HSUPA.MeanChThroughput counter during busy hours to determine whether the average HSUPA throughout in a cell increases.
− After this function is enabled, the average HSUPA throughput in a cell increases when antenna interference is imbalanced.
− After this function is enabled, the average HSUPA throughput in a cell decreases when some antennas become invalid and the WRFD-020136 Anti-Interference Scheduling for HSUPA feature is activated.
If the average HSUPA throughput does not increase when antenna interference is imbalanced, the live network may not meet the requirements in section 11.15.1 "When to Use Anti-Imbalance of the Different Antenna" or the traffic volume is too small so that the gains provided by this function are not noticeable.
Monitor the CS RAB Setup Success Ratio and PS RAB Setup Success Ratio KPIs during busy hours to determine whether the access success rate increases.
− After this function is enabled, the access success rate increases when antenna interference is imbalanced and the RTWP-based anti-interference function is disabled; the access success rate decreases when antenna interference is imbalanced and the RTWP-based anti-interference function is enabled.
− After this function is enabled, the access success rate decreases when some antennas become invalid and the RTWP-based anti-interference function is enabled.
Monitor the CS Service Drop Ratio and PS Call Drop Ratio KPIs to observe whether the call drop rate decreases.
− After this function is enabled, the call drop rate increases when antenna interference is imbalanced and the RTWP-based anti-interference function is disabled; the call drop rate decreases when antenna interference is imbalanced and the RTWP-based anti-interference function is enabled.
− After this function is enabled, the call drop rate decreases when some antennas become invalid and the WRFD-020136 Anti-Interference Scheduling for HSUPA feature is activated.
If throughput increases, coverage will shrink and the call drop rate will deteriorate. You are advised to disable this function if the call drop rate deteriorates seriously.

11.19 WRFD-150236 Load Based Dynamic Adjustment of PCPICH
11.19.1 When to Use Load Based Dynamic Adjustment of PCPICH
Use this feature in the following scenarios:
There are multiple carriers in urban areas.
There is a large number of UEs in a carrier and downlink non-HSPA power resources are more easily congested in this carrier.
You can activate this feature to reduce the call drop rate in multi-carrier scenarios where the current area is continuously covered by carriers of the GSM or UMTS network. If a carrier covers continuous areas, you are not advised to activate this feature because the activation of this feature reduces coverage. You can activate this feature for a carrier that carries services. It is recommended that carriers enabled with this feature be configured with the coverage-based handover function so that UEs can be handed over to carriers covering continuous areas.
You are not advised to activate this feature if the P-CPICH transmit power configured for a cell is low.
11.19.2 Required Information
Collect the following information before activating this feature:

11-60
Before activating this feature, ensure that the current area is continuously covered by a carrier or several carriers. If not, coverage holes will occur, causing the handover success rate and call drop rate to deteriorate.
Network coverage
Obtain the coverage of carriers that are to be activated with this feature. If cell coverage shrinks when the P-CPICH transmit power is within the adjustment scope, coverage holes will occur. In this situation, you must estimate the impact of coverage holes on network performance to determine whether to activate this feature. If the value of the KPI Soft Handover Overhead is high (higher than 30%), cell coverage is good.
P-CPICH power in a cell
Obtain the P-CPICH power configured for the current cell before activating this feature. If the configured P-CPICH power is low (For example, the proportion of PCPICHPower to MaxTxPower is lower than 5%), the gains provided by this feature are small but the negative impact of this feature is great. In this case, you are not advised to activate this feature.
Number of UEs in a cell
The gains provided by this feature are noticeable only when there is a large number of UEs in the cell. Obtain the number of UEs in this cell by querying the value of the VS.CellDCHUEs counter.
Non-HSPA power load in a cell
This feature reduces the P-CPICH transmit power only when the downlink non-HSPA power load in this cell is heavy. Before activating this feature, you are required to estimate the downlink non-HSPA power load based on the linear value of the difference between the VS.MeanTCP.NonHS counter and the MaxTxPower parameter. If the load is heavy, downlink non-HSPA power load in this cell is heavy.

11.19.6 Parameter Optimization
Take the following measures to optimize parameters for this feature:
If the value of the VS.CellBreath.CPICHMin.Time counter is large when the P-CPICH transmit power is set to the smallest value and counters such as the call drop rate does not deteriorate, you can reduce the value of the MinPCPICHPower parameter so that the P-CPICH transmit power can be further adjusted.
If the call drop rate deteriorates noticeably after feature activation, you can increase the value of the PcpichPwrUpDlLoadState or PcpichPwrDownDlLoadState parameter so that the P-CPICH transmit power can be more difficult to reduce. For example, you can change the value of the PcpichPwrDownDlLoadState parameter from DlLoadedState to DlHeavyState.
If the number of P-CPICH transmit power adjustments (indicated by the VS.CellBreath.CPICHUp or VS.CellBreath.CPICHDown counter) is large and the number of uplink and downlink adjustments is almost the same, downlink non-HSPA power load state changes frequently. In this situation, you can increase the value of the IntraFreqLdbPeriodTimerLen parameter or reduce the value of the PCPICHPowerPace parameter to reduce the number of P-CPICH transmit power adjustments.

CSINTERRATSHOULDNOTLDHO: The inter-RAT SHOULDNOTBE load handover of the CS domain is performed.
PSINTERRATSHOULDNOTLDHO: The inter-RAT SHOULDNOTBE load handover of the PS domain is performed.
The LDR takes the actions in the preset sequence and judges whether each action is successful. If an action is unsuccessful, the LDR turns to the next action. If an action is successful, a parameter is set to NOACT, or all the preceding actions are taken, the downlink LDR is finished, and the system waits for the next triggering of the LDR.
Because each action is performed by its algorithm module, the LDR algorithm only selects users and delivers control messages, the execution result of each action can be obtained after a delay, and the LDR algorithm cannot wait for a long time, so the LDR can only judge whether the actions succeed by whether candidate users are found.
The inter-frequency load handover has no impact on the QoS of users and can balance the cell load, so the inter-frequency load handover usually serves as the first action.
The BE service rate reduction is effective only when the DCCC algorithm is enabled.

The mechanism of the OLC is that an action is performed in each [OLC period] and a part of services are selected based on the action rules to perform this action. This parameter defines the maximum number of RABs selected in executing downlink OLC fast restriction.
Selection of RABs of the OLC is based on the service priorities and ARP values and bearing priority indication. The RAB of low priority is under control.

If the number of times overload and congestion occurs does not exceed this threshold value, the system reduces the BE service rate by lowering TF to mitigate overload. If the number of times overload and congestion occurs exceeds this threshold value, fast TF restriction has no obvious effect on mitigating overload. In this case, the system has to switch BE services to common channels or release users to solve the overload problem.

measurement-based inter-frequency handovers to balance load across inter-frequency cells.
13. CELL_CODE_CLB: Whether to activate the cell-code-resource-based CLB algorithm. With this algorithm, the RNC determines whether to enable a cell to enter the CLB state based on the code usage in the cell. Once the cell enters the CLB state, the RNC periodically initiates measurement-based inter-frequency handovers to balance load across inter-frequency cells.
14. CELL_CREDIT_CLB: Whether to activate the cell-credit-resource-based CLB algorithm. With this algorithm, the RNC determines whether to enable a cell to enter the CLB state based on the credit usage in the cell. Once the cell enters the CLB state, the RNC periodically initiates measurement-based inter-frequency handovers to balance load across inter-frequency cells.
15. DLLOAD_BASED_PCPICH_PWR_ADJ_SWITCH: Whether the algorithm for dynamically adjusting the pilot power based on the downlink load takes effect. When this parameter is set to ON and LOAD_BASED_PCPICH_PWR_ADJ of the "FuncSwitch2" parameter in the "ADD UCELLLICENSE" command is turned on, the algorithm for dynamically adjusting the pilot power based on the downlink load takes effect. In this case, other intra-frequency load balancing algorithms (for example, the TCP- and RTWP-based intra-frequency load balancing algorithms) that have been enabled in the cell automatically fail.

compressed mode when measurement-based inter-frequency handovers based on other factors than coverage are about to be performed. When this switch is turned on, the RNC checks whether the number of such UEs is less than the value of "CellSFCMUserNumThd" before sending such UEs an inter-frequency measurement control message. If so, the RNC continues with the current inter-frequency handover process. If no, the RNC terminates the process. When this switch is turned off, the RNC directly sends such UEs an inter-frequency measurement control message. Note that measurement-based inter-frequency handovers based on other factors than coverage can be triggered by MC DRD, MC LDR, inter-RAT LDR, CLB, and HCS.

Meaning:UL fast TF restriction refers to a situation where, when the cell is overloaded and congested, the uplink TF can be adjusted to restrict the number of blocks transported in each TTI at the MAC layer and the rate of user data, thus reducing the cell uplink load.
The mechanism of the OLC is that an action is performed in each [OLC period] and a part of services are selected based on the action rules to perform this action. This parameter defines the maximum number of RABs selected in executing uplink OLC fast restriction.
Selection of RABs of the OLC is based on the service priorities and ARP values and bearing priority indication. The RAB of low priority is under control.

The mechanism of the OLC is that an action is performed in each [OLC period] and a part of services are selected based on the action rules to perform this action. This parameter defines the maximum number of RABs released in executing uplink OLC service release.
For the users of a single service, the releasing of RABs means the complete releasing of the users. The releasing of RABs causes call drops, so UlOlcFTFRstrctTimes or DlOlcFTFRstrctTimes should be set to a low value. Higher values of the parameter get the cell load to decrease more obviously, but the QoS will be affected.
