• HSDPA is enabled with HSDPAenable parameter (Requires object locking)
• MAC-hs entity is created.
• HSDPAenabled• Parameter enables / disables the use of HSDPA in the cell.• When the value of the parameter is set to 1 (HSDPA functionality is enabled for the
cell) the system checks that maximum amount of HSDPA capable BTSs and cells is not exceeded.
• If it is not possible to activate HSDPA for new BTS or cell then activation does not succeed and error is printed out.
• When HSDPA is enabled following BTS resources are allocated:• WSPC capacity for HSDPA• 5 HS-PDSCH codes (SF16)• 1 HS-SCCH code (SF128)
HSDPA Activation

Directed RRC Connection Setup for HSDPA (1/2)• DirectedRRCEnabledThe parameter enables/disables the use of directed RRC connection setup or
directed RRC connection setup for HSDPA layer in the cell.0: Directed RRC connection setup is not enabled in the cell1: Directed RRC connection setup is enabled in the cell2: Directed RRC connection setup for HSDPA layer is enabled in the cell

Directed RRC Connection Setup for HSDPA (2/2)• Directed RRC connection setup for HSDPA layer cannot be used
simultaneously in the cell with Directed RRC connection setup feature (load based).
• (Load based) Directed RRC connection setup would move also potential HSDPA users away from HSDPA supporting cell.
• When Directed RRC connection setup for HSDPA layer is used, the maximum number of cells (layers) in one sector of the base station that can be configured is two.
• If three-layer network is used one of the DCH layers (not supporting HSDPA) has to have different Sector Identifier in base station than in layers (DCH layer and HSDPA layer) where the Directed RRC connection setup for HSDPA layer is supported.

Planning parameters in RAN05 for Power allocation
• HSDPA power is defined by the PtxMaxHSDPA parameter. The value of the parameter is signaled to the BTS with codes.
• The signaling takes place in a physical shared channel reconfiguration procedure after cell setup in cells that support HSDPA and have HSDPA enabled (parameter HSDPAenabled).
• Note that the HSDPA power can be used for Rel-99 channels when there are no MAC-d flows in the cell.
• Related Parameters• PtxMaxHSDPA• HSDPAPriority• PtxTargetHSDPA• PtxOffsetHSDPA• WinLCHSDPA

Power Allocation
PtxMaxHSDPAThe parameter defines the maximum allowed HSDPA transmission power.
Range and step 0...50 dBm, step 0.1 dBmDefault value 37.8 dBm (6W)Modification Requires object locking
7 © NOKIA HSDPA_Parameters_v1_cv.ppt / 2006 Sept / MHL Company Confidential
Power AllocationPtxTargetHSDPADepending on the setting of the parameter HSDPAPriority, either the total transmitted carrier power or the
total non-controllable transmitted power has to be below or equal to PtxTargetHSDPA before the first MAC-d flow can be allocated in the cell.
If at least one MAC-d flow is allocated in the cell, PtxTargetHSDPA is used instead of PtxTarget as a target of PtxnonHSDPA in NRT DCH scheduling.
Range and step -10...50 dBm, step 0.1 dBmDefault value 38.5 dBm
PtxOffsetHSDPAThe target value of the transmitted non-HSDPA power (PtxTargetHSDPA) can be exceeded by the value of this
parameter before the cell is considered to be overloaded in the downlink.If the averaged PtxnonHSDPA exceeds or equals PtxTargetHSDPA+ PtxOffsetHSDPA, depending on the setting
of the parameter HSDPAPriority, overload control actions targeted either to MAC-d flows or NRT DCHs are started.
Range and step 0...6 dB, step 0.1 dBDefault value 0.8 dB

HSDPA PriorityThe parameter defines the relative priority between NRT DCHs and MAC-d flows.HSDPAPriority=1When the first MAC-d flow in the cell is allocated, the total non-controllable
transmitted power has to be below or equal to PtxTargetHSDPA, before the HS-DSCH can be selected.
If the averaged PtxnonHSDPA exceeds or equals PtxTargetHSDPA+ PtxOffsetHSDPA, the overload control actions are targeted primarily to NRT DCH(s). Only if there are no more NRT DCH(s) in the cell, all MAC-d flows in the cell are released.
HSDPAPriority=2When the first MAC-d flow in the cell is allocated, the total transmitted carrier power
has to be below or equal to PtxTargetHSDPA, before the HS-DSCH can be selected.If the averaged PtxnonHSDPA exceeds or equalsPtxTargetHSDPA+ PtxOffsetHSDPA,
the overload control actions are targeted to MAC-d flows and all MAC-d flows in the cell are released.

HS-DSCH & MAC-d release• HS-DSCH (HSDPA Transport Channel) is released when either UTILIZATION
or THROUGHPUT indicates inefficient use of resources.• Low Utilisation indication is send when
• MAC-d flow throughput is below MACdflowutilRelThr• And there is no more data in the BTS buffer (normal release).
• Low Throughput indication is send when• MAC-d flow throughput is below MACdflowthroughputRelThr• Even when there is still data in the BTS RLC buffer but it cannot be sent
(abnormal release).• If the release of the MAC-d flow is caused by low throughput, the UE is not
allowed to use HS-DSCH until the HS-DSCH guard timer has expired due to low throughput (RNP parameter HsdschGuardTimerLowThroughput, def. 30s)
• Associated UL DCH needs to released also (InactivityTimer), when HS-DSCH is released

• If the MACdflowutitTimetoTrigger expires, the number of RLC PDUs in the transmission windows is checked:
• If the sum of the RLC PDUs in the transmission windows of the NRT RBsmapped to the MAC-d flow equals zero, L2 sends a low utilisationindication to L3 and resets the MACdflowutilTimetoTrigger.
• If there are any RLC PDUs in the transmission windows, L2 keeps checking the transmission windows until they are empty or the downlink throughput goes above MACdflowutilRelThr.
• Range and step 0...300 s, step 0.2 s• Default value 0 s

Associated UL Channel Bit Rate- General
• In order to use HS-DSCH as a downlink transport channel, an HSDP Aassociateduplink DCH return channel is needed.
• Supported data rates for a return channel are 64, 128 and 384 kbit/s.
• The RNC determines the initial bit rate to be used in the uplink return channel from the measured traffic volume and the configured initial bit rate.
• If the traffic volume measurement indicates High traffic volume(TrafVolThresholdULHigh), the RNC attempts to allocate a return channel with the highest possible bit rate.
• If the traffic volume measurement indicates Low traffic volume(TrafVolThresholdULLow), the RNC attempts to allocate a return channel with configured initial bit rate(HSDPAinitialBitrateUL).
• If the HS-DSCH allocation is triggered by downlink, the RNC attempts to allocate the uplink with HSDPAinitialBitrateUL.
• If the channel allocation fails due to congestion, the HS-DSCH allocation is not possible and the RNC schedules a DCH to the UE.

Details on Cell Change via cell-FACH• HSDPA Serving Cell Change via Cell-FACH feature is used only in intra
frequency handover cases, in case of IFHO or ISHO the original DCH switching procedures are used
• If the user was moved to Cell-FACH because of intra frequency handover no HSDPA user penalty timers are used on Cell-FACH, the user will be immediately switched to a new HSDPA connection when there is a data volume request either from the UE or RNC
• If the user was moved to Cell-FACH because of low throughput then the HSDPA user penalty timers are used on Cell-FACH
• If the HSDPA user moves to non-HSDPA cell, the user in HO area will be moved to Cell-FACH. The user will be immediately switched to the DCH of the requested bit rate when there is a data volume request either from the UE or RNC (no need for first DCH0/0 DCH Initial bit rate DCH Final bit rate)

DescriptionEvent
• A UE with a HS-DSCH transport channel allocated can have only one cell in the active set at a time, that is, the size of active set limited to one.
• Because of this, the RNC does not ad cells to the active set based on reporting event1A when a HS-DSCH transport channel is allocated to the UE, but utilizes the event 1A as a trigger for a HS-DSCH MAC-d flow release and transition to the Cell_FACH state.
36 © NOKIA HSDPA_Parameters_v1_cv.ppt / 2006 Sept / MHL Company Confidential
HSDPARRCdiversity (1/4)- Diversity handover of stand-alone signalling link
•If the active set size is greater than one, allocation of a HS-DSCH transport channel to the UE is prohibited.
•The operator can disable diversity handover of the RRC connection (stand-alone signalling link) of a HSDPA-capable UE with the HSDPARRCdiversity parameter to maximise the use of the HS-DSCH.
•The value of the parameter HSDPARRCdiversity shall be checked immediately after a successful RRC connection setup procedure.
•If SHO of the RRC connection (stand-alone signalling link) of the HSDPA-capable UE is not allowed, the active set size is limited to one for the RRC connection.
•Restriction is effective after RRC-connection establishment when SRB only or SRB and DCH 0/0 is/are allocated.
37 © NOKIA HSDPA_Parameters_v1_cv.ppt / 2006 Sept / MHL Company Confidential
• The RNC ignores the parameter value (and allows diversity handover of standalone signalling link) if measurement event 1A is received and the reported CPICH Ec/No of the entering cell meets the following conditions (that is, the threshold to perform HS-DSCH to Cell_FACH transition is exceeded):
(1) EcNoDownlink + ReleaseMarginPeakEcNo(n) < EcNoNcell(n)
(2) AveEcNoDownlink + ReleaseMarginAverageEcNo(n) < AveEcNoNcell(n)
EcNoDownlink :CPICH Ec/No of the serving cellEcNoNcell(n) : CPICH Ec/No of the entering cell AveEcNoDownlink : averaged CPICH Ec/No of the serving cellAveEcNoNcell(n) : averaged CPICH Ec/No of the entering cell
• The comparison is applied when a cell has entered the reporting range, and triggered event 1A, and RNC has not added the cell into the active set.
• In this case, the UE reverts to periodical reporting and continues reporting after the initial report by switching to the periodical measurement reporting mode.
• ReleaseMarginPeakEcNo(n) determines the maximum allowed difference between the CPICH Ec/No of the entering cell (n) and the CPICH Ec/No of the serving cell so that active set update is not executed.
• ReleaseMarginAverageEcNo(n) determines the maximum allowed difference between the averaged CPICH Ec/No of the entering cell(n) and the averaged CPICH Ec/No of the serving cell correspondingly.
• The HSDPA-specific HOPS parameters are used in the equation.

Measurement event 1A triggered HS-DSCH MAC-d flow release and parameter EnableRRCrelease is enabled:
For users other than HS-DSCH allocated, EnableRRCRelease indicates whether the RRC connection release (excluding emergency calls) is allowed due to non-optimum fast closed loop power control.
For users with a HS-DSCH, If the RNC receives measurement event 1A and the EnableRRCRelease parameter is enabled, HS-DSCH MAC-d flow release is not allowed to be triggered directly.
When a cell has entered the reporting range and triggered event 1A and the RNC has not added the cell into the active set, the UE reverts to periodical reporting. This means that the UE continues reporting after the initial report by switching to periodical measurement reporting mode.
As the EnableRRCRelease parameter is enabled, the RNC’s decision on HSDSCH MAC-d flow release is based on CPICH Ec/No of the serving cell (EcNoDownlink), CPICH Ec/No of the neighbouringcell (EcNoNcell) and the ReleaseMarginAverageEcNo and ReleaseMarginPeakEcNo control parameters.
Based on the periodic measurement reporting mode and the control parameters, the UE is transferred to the CELL_FACH state and the radio bearer is mapped to the FACH with the RRC: Radio bearer reconfiguration procedure if the following conditions are effective:
(1) EcNoDownlink + ReleaseMarginPeakEcNo(n) < EcNoNcell(n)(2) AveEcNoDownlink + ReleaseMarginAverageEcNo(n) < AveEcNoNcell(n)

HsdschGuardTimerHOHS-DSCH guard time after switching to DCH due to HOThe parameter determines a period of time during which the HS-DSCH
allocation is denied after successful channel type switching from HS-DSCH to DCH 0/0 kbps due to handover reasons(e1F, e6A).
Timer is not applied if UE is transferred directly to the CELL_FACH state due to reporting event 1A.

Resumption timer• RNP parameter in RNC.• Timer started when HSDPA
capable UE having DCH NRT enters into HSDPA capable cell and Active set size=1.
• Switching to HS-DSCH is tried after the timer expires, if the Active set size is still 1.
• Switching happens via DCH0/0.
• Normal HSDPA selection procedure is applied after a capacity request, when DCH0/0 is allocated.

Improved HS-DSCH to cell_FACH switching (RAS05+CD1)
• Target cell (cell with best CPICH Ec/No in the measurement set) informed in the RB reconfiguration message, when UE is commanded to cell_FACH
• There is no need for cell reselection in cell_FACH, as the UE goes directly to strongest cell in cell_FACH.
Scrambling code of the strongest cell in the measured set informed to UE.
