HSDPA :

Code Congetion :

1- WCEL Parameters

DPCHOverHSPDSCHThreshold (NRT DPCH over HS-PDSCH code offset)

from 5 to 0

This parameter defines the number of allocated HS-PDSCH codes that are not allowed to pre-empt by
NRT DPCH in the case NRT DPCH code congestion. The value of the parameter is an offset from the
maximum allowed number of HS-PDSCH codes.

2-

HSPDSCHMarginSF128 (HS-PDSCH code upgrade margin for SF128 codes)

from 0 to 1 or 8

The parameter defines the required number of free SF128 channelisation codes left for DPCHs. The
number of free DPCH codes after the HS-PDSCH code upgrade has to be equal or higher than the
parameter value, otherwise the HS-PDSCH code upgrade is not allowed. Also, if the number of free
DPCH codes is lower than the value of the parameter, periodical HS-PDSCH code downgrade can be
initiated.Dl Congestion :

Special Case : Very High UL Code congestion (HSDPA 3.2 Meg will utilize ~34% of code, 7.2 will
utilize ~68% of code ):

a- HSDPA16KBPSReturnChannel=enabled
b- Reduce SHO overhead
c- Give Sw and HW Restart of BTS in case there is bad CQI good one is 26 or 25
d- HSUPA turned off (In fact that turned on HSUPA use 60 UL CE permanent
e- Inactivity timer for downlink DCH to be tuned but will not effect because reserved IP in the core
f- UL SIR target with HS-DPCCH - DPDCH SF 32 to be tuned from 1 to -10 or UL SIR target with HS-
DPCCH - DPDCH SF 64 from 7,5 to `1
g- UL BE INITIAL BIT RATE from 64 to 32kbit/sec
1-PtxCellMax (Cell maximum transmission power) from 43 dbm to 46 dbm :
This parameter defines the maximum transmission power of the cell. The maximum transmission power
is the maximum value for the linear sum of the power of all downlink physical channels that is allowed
to be used in a cell.

The maximum transmission power of the cell is the minimum of the two parameters: PtxCellMax and
MaxDLPowerCapability (the maximum BTS power capability). The RNC signals the BTS the minimum
value as the maximum transmission power in Maximum Transmission Power IE (TS 25.433). The RNC
uses the minimum value as the maximum transmission power of the cell.

2-PtxTargetHSDPA (Target for transmitted non-HSDPA power) from 385 to 400

then 430 then 450:
Parameter defines the target scheduling threshold for HSDPA power allocation. It is applicable to the
HSDPA static resource allocation in RNC and ignored in the case of HSDPA dynamic resource allocation.

Depending 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 HS-DSCH MAC-d flow can be allocated in the cell. If at least one HS-DSCH MAC-d flow is allocated in
the cell, PtxTargetHSDPA is used instead of PtxTarget as a target of PtxnonHSDPA in NRT DCH scheduling

In DL Allocation :

PtxTargetPSAdjustPeriod (DCH PS target adjust period for dyn HSDPA pwr

alloc) from 5 to 10

This parameter defines the adjustment period - in terms of PtxTotal/PtxNonHSPA reporting

periods - of the target level for DCH packet scheduling (PtxTargetPS) when one or more MAC-d
flows is/are set up in the cell when HSDPA dynamic resource allocation is used in the cell.
Conditions to adjust PtxTargetPS are checked every nth received measurement report from the
BTS, where n is defined by this parameter.

I would like to share with you the most tuned parameters in PS of 3G in NSN :
Dl Power Congestion :

DeltaPrxMaxDown (Maximum uplink power decrease in packet scheduling)

from 6 dB to 8dB

Description

Defines the maximum received uplink power decrease in a cell, used when bit rates are
decreased by the packet scheduler, relative to PrxTot

MinAllowedBitRateDL (Minimum allowed bit rate in downlink) from 32 to 8 (or

64 rarely )

The parameter defines the minimum allowed bit rate in the downlink that PS can downgrade to
the NCR DCH bit rate in congestion situations. The allocated bit rate corresponds to the highest
bit rate in the TFS from which the TFCS is constructed.

Note: If the maximum bit rate of the RAB is below the value of the minimum allowed or initial
bit rate parameter, it is allowed to schedule a lower NRT DCH bit rate. The maximum bit rate of
the RAB is used as a new minimum or initial bit rate for the RRC connection in question

Up-Link Power Congestion :

DeltaPrxMaxDown (Maximum uplink power decrease in packet scheduling)

from 4dB to 15 dB

Defines the maximum received uplink power decrease in a cell, used when bit rates are
decreased by the packet scheduler, relative to PrxTotal.

MinAllowedBitRateUL (Minimum allowed bit rate in uplink) from 32 to 8

The parameter defines the minimum allowed bit rate in the uplink that PS can downgrade to
NRT DCH bit rate in congestion situations. The allocated bit rate corresponds to the highest bit
rate in the TFS from which the TFCS is constructed.

Note: If the maximum bit rate of the RAB is below the value of the minimum allowed bit rate or
initial bit rate (InitialBitRateUL), it is allowed to schedule a lower NRT DCH bit rate. The
maximum bit rate of the RAB is used as a new minimum allowed bit rate or initial bit rate for the
RRC connection in question.

The Admision Control parameters will be sent later
