Fixed line type of HSDPA users

•When the HSDPA service is provided as replacement for fixed line/DSL

service for Internet access, the user behavior is different compared to typicalmobile user.

 – Users stay long in HSDPA state with very low background traffic (like keep alivemessaging, VPN etc.) during the time between the actual traffic bursts withhigher peak rates

 – The average throughput per users is decreased and thus the number of usersin RNC level can be increased

• The operator should follow that the limits for the simultaneous HSPA users(in Cell_DCH) in RNC are not exceeded.

R99 UL bit rate allocations

•There is one common DL

resource reservation for allHSDPA users

• Additionally resources for the R99 UL traffic isdedicated for each user. Theamount of resourcesreserved depends on the bitrate.

UL bit rate affects on thenumber of HSDPA userssupported in DMPG

Optimized UL reservation

The load in DMCU from each HSDPA user depends on the

associated UL channel bit rate reservation. By optimising theUL channel reservation also the number of users can beoptimized.

The reservation for HSDPA associated UL DCH channel can be

optimized with the following RAS05.1 features: – RAN242: Flexible Upgrade of NRT DCH Data Rate

 – RAN409: Throughput Based Optimization of the Packet Scheduler  Algorithm

The reservation is done according to the actual throughput

need of the user. When the throughput decreases thereservation is also downgraded and thus more HSDPA userscan be supported.

New implementation in RAS05.1ED / RN2.2 CD02

•New HSDPA configuration alternative is supported (RAN1514).

This can be used for fixed line type of users with low averagethroughputs when there are less R99 NRT data users in thenetwork.

•Implementation of this is such that all DMPG units in RNC can

be used for HSDPA traffic processing. (so called “flat HSDPASW pool”) 

 – Max RNC data throughput or max AMR capacity do not change

 – NRT R99 data users are not prioritized anymore over HSDPA users

 –  Activity factor for the associated UL channels for HSDPA is assumed to

be 69 % which means that more users that have low averagethroughput can be supported.

• Originally supported HSDPA configuration is still supported aswell. HSPA SW pool type can be configured by operator.

RAS06/RN3.0 - number of HSPA users in RNC

•Due to the architectural optimizations in RAS06/RN3.0 the number of supportedHSPA users are increased.

•Due to the architectural changes the “flat HSDPA SW pool” configuration is notsupported anymore – only one option per configuration in the beginning

•16 kbit/s UL bit rate introduced supporting more users with low average throughput

•Full rate resource allocation is made for the first HSUPA users. Rest of the users willget half rate resource reservation.

HSPA users in traffic mix case

•The total number of HSDPA users with differentUL channels can be calculated with the following

formula:

•NRT R99 data users will have an effect on howmany HSPA users can be supported. There is nosimple rule to calculate this.

 – RAS06 will bring big improvement for traffic mixcases. NRT R99 data users have very minor effecton the number of HSPA users.

 – The example here is with RNC196/450configuration with example traffic mix where 50 %of the NRT R99 data users are with PS384 and

50 % with PS64 bit rates. The HSDPA users are50 % with PS384 UL and 50 % with PS64 UL.

•CDSP-DH is highly integrated solution with two powerful DSP processors per DMPG as thereare 8 DSPs per DMPG in CDSP-C

 – Otherwise the HW architecture is the same as in CDSP-C

• CDSP-DH is used in RNC2600 and in RNC196/RNC450 HSPA peak rate upgrades

• CDSP-DH replaces CDSP-C in all new deliveries and extensions since RU10 release

DMCU resource management in RAS06

•The DMCU resource management is based on soft pooling as in RN2.2.

•In RN3.0 DSPs are dedicated either for HSPA traffic or then for other traffic. – HSPA DMPGs include both HSPA and non-HSPA DSPs ( 6 HS-DSP and 2 DCH-DSP )

 – Non-HSPA (DCH-DMPGs include only non-HSPA DSPs

•HSPA (HSDPA and HSUPA) optimized DSP code is used in those DSPs that are allocated for HSPA usage. Only HSPA services can be allocated on those

• Additionally SW architecture change is made: RLC processing is moved from PQ2 to DSPs.

This allows more processing capacity per DMPG.
