2 Overview of DRX and Signaling Control


With the ever increasing diversity of LTE applications, terminal standby time has become a
major concern for end users. To reduce the power consumption of the user equipment (UE),
3GPP has introduced discontinuous reception (DRX) for LTE and Huawei eNodeBs provide
the LBFD-002017 DRX feature accordingly.

Moreover, many intelligent-terminal applications use small, sparse packets or heartbeat


packets. These applications cause networks to frequently release and reestablish radio
resource control (RRC) connections, increasing signaling. Staying in connected mode for an
extended period consumes UE power. The Huawei feature LOFD-00110501 Dynamic DRX
allows UEs to enter power saving or reduced signaling mode based on UE power
consumption and network load.

When UEs in connected mode are moving at high speeds, frequent handovers occur. When
there are a large number of such UEs, excessive signaling strains the network. To reduce the
signaling, Huawei eNodeBs use the LOFD-00110502 High-Mobility-Triggered Idle Mode
feature.

Table 2-1 describes the application scenarios and benefits of DRX and signaling control
features.

3 DRX
This chapter describes the principles of LBFD-002017 DRX. For engineering guidelines, see
8 Engineering Guidelines for LBFD-002017 DRX.

3.1 Introduction
3.1.1 Definition and Application Scenarios

Definition
DRX is a technology in which a UE can switch between active and sleep states. When the UE
needs to receive downlink (DL) data or signaling, the UE turns on its receiver and enters the
active state. In other situations, the UE turns off its receiver and enters the sleep state to
reduce power consumption.

DRX for UEs in connected mode is provided by LBFD-002017 DRX. DRX for UEs in idle
mode, as described in Idle Mode Management Feature Parameter Description, is different.
Unless otherwise stated, "DRX" in this document refers to DRX for UEs in connected mode.

In DRX mode, a DRX cycle consists of active time and sleep time, which correspond
respectively to the active state and sleep state. In non-DRX mode, the UE keeps its receiver
on and stays in the active state. For explanations of the DRX cycle, active time, and sleep
time, see 3.4.1 Related Concepts.

Application Scenarios

DRX can be used with all mobile terminals. It is suitable for the following types of services:

 Data services insensitive to delay


 Services that generate small, sparse packets
 Services with periodic transmission of continuous small packets
 ANR measurement

3.1.2 Benefits

DRX provides the following advantages over continuous reception:

 Reduces power consumption and prolongs the standby time of the UE. The UE does
not need to constantly monitor the physical downlink control channel (PDCCH). The
UE can turn off its radio frequency (RF) receiver and other communication modules.
 Allows the UE to perform ANR measurement during the sleep time in DRX.

NOTE:

 When a UE is in DRX mode, the standby time depends on the UE model, traffic
model, and DRX parameter settings. UEs from certain vendors do not need to
constantly monitor the PDCCH, however, they cannot turn off their RF modules and
the power saving effect is limited.
 Performance preference or power saving preference can be configured by DRX
parameters. For details, see 8.4.5.4 Using MML Commands.

3.1.3 Process

Figure 3-1 shows the DRX process.


Figure 3-1 DRX process

1. DRX entry phase

After the UE accesses the network, the eNodeB checks whether the UE meets the
conditions for entering DRX mode. When the conditions are met, the eNodeB sends
the UE an RRC Connection Reconfiguration message with the DRX-Configuration
information element (IE) set to setup. The UE then enters DRX mode based on other
parameters in this IE. For the conditions for entering DRX mode, see 3.3.1 Entry
Conditions.

2. DRX execution phase

After the UE enters DRX mode, the eNodeB instructs the UE to switch between
active and sleep states as well as between long and short DRX cycles based on
network conditions and parameter settings. For details, see 3.4.3.2 Switching Between
Active Time and Sleep Time and 3.4.4 Switching Between Long and Short DRX
Cycles.

3. DRX exit phase


The eNodeB checks whether the UE meets the conditions for exiting DRX mode.
When the conditions are met, the eNodeB sends the UE an RRC Connection
Reconfiguration message with the DRX-Configuration IE set to release. After the UE
receives the message, it immediately clears all the DRX parameters stored locally and
exits DRX mode. For the conditions for exiting DRX mode, see 3.3.2 Exit
Conditions.

3.2 Relationship with QCI


Services with different QoS class identifiers (QCIs) have different characteristics. Users can
set DRX policies on a per QCI basis. The following QCI-specific parameters are
configurable:

 DRX switch: DrxParaGroup.EnterDrxSwitch

For the function and usage of this switch, see 3.3 Entry and Exit Conditions.

 DRX timer parameters:


o DrxParaGroup.OnDurationTimer
o DrxParaGroup.DRXInactivityTimer
o DrxParaGroup.DRXReTxTimer
o DrxParaGroup.LongDrxCycle
o DrxParaGroup.ShortDrxCycle
o DrxParaGroup.DrxShortCycleTimer
o DrxParaGroup.SupportShortDrx

For the functions and usages of these timers, see 3.4 Working Mechanism.

Table 3-1 lists the QCIs and corresponding service types.

NOTE:

 PDB: packet delay budget


 PELR: packet error loss rate
 GBR: guaranteed bit rate
 IMS: IP multimedia subsystem
 TCP: Transmission Control Protocol
 P2P: point-to-point

For example, as VoIP services have a QCI of 1, the DRX parameters for QCI 1 can be used
for VoIP services. For details about DRX principles for VoIP services, see 3.5.1 DRX
Parameters for VoIP.

If services with different QCIs are running on the UE, the following DRX parameter
selection rules are recommended:

 If any QCI is not configured with a DRX parameter group, the eNodeB will not
configure DRX parameters for this UE.
 If each QCI is configured with a DRX parameter group, then:
o If each DRX parameter group has a different DrxParaGroup.LongDrxCycle
parameter value, the eNodeB will select the DRX parameter group with the
smallest DrxParaGroup.LongDrxCycle parameter value for this UE.
o If multiple DRX parameter groups have the smallest
DrxParaGroup.LongDrxCycle parameter value, the eNodeB will select the
DRX parameter group for the QCI with the highest priority defined by 3GPP.

When the UE simultaneously has bearers of QCI 1 and QCI 5 as well as a default bearer (for
example, of QCI 6, 7, 8, or 9), the eNodeB complies with the following configuration rules:

 If the default bearer and QCI 1 bearer have the same


DrxParaGroup.LongDrxCycle value (for example, 40 ms) or the default bearer has
a smaller value than the QCI 1 bearer, the QCI 5 bearer must have a larger value (for
example, 80 ms) than the default bearer and QCI 1 bearer.
 If the default bearer has a larger DrxParaGroup.LongDrxCycle value than the QCI
1 bearer, the default bearer and QCI 5 bearer must use the same DRX parameter
group, which is defined in the DrxParaGroup MO.
3.3 Entry and Exit Conditions
The UE enters or exits DRX mode only after receiving an instruction from the eNodeB. This
section describes the conditions for entering and exiting DRX mode.

3.3.1 Entry Conditions

The DRX functionality is jointly controlled by the general DRX switch Drx.DrxAlgSwitch
and the QCI-specific DRX switch DrxParaGroup.EnterDrxSwitch.

After the UE receives an RRC Connection Reconfiguration message with the DRX-
Configuration IE set to setup, it enters DRX mode. The eNodeB instructs the UE to enter
DRX mode if all the following conditions are met:

 The Drx.DrxAlgSwitch parameter is set to ON(On).


 All the established bearers for the UE support DRX. That is, the
DrxParaGroup.EnterDRXSwitch parameter of each bearer is set to ON(On).

 One of the following conditions related to the CellDrxPara.FddEnterDrxThd


parameter is met:
o The CellDrxPara.FddEnterDrxThd parameter is set to a value ranging from
0 to 999, and the measured traffic volume is less than or equal to the value of
the CellDrxPara.FddEnterDrxThd parameter in the period specified by the
CellDrxPara.DataAmountStatTimer parameter.
o The CellDrxPara.FddEnterDrxThd parameter is set to 1000. Under this
setting, the eNodeB does not evaluate DRX entry based on the measured
traffic volume; instead, the eNodeB directly instructs the UE to enter DRX
mode.

There are exceptions. When one of the following conditions is met, the eNodeB no longer
instructs the UE to enter DRX mode:

 The UE constantly performs gap-assisted measurement.


 The UE is in the transmission time interval (TTI) bundling state.

3.3.2 Exit Conditions

The UE exits DRX mode in any of the following situations:

 The UE receives an RRC Connection Reconfiguration message with the DRX-


Configuration IE set to release and clears all the stored DRX parameters. The
eNodeB sends this message if any of the following conditions is met:
o The QCI of a new service does not allow the UE to enter DRX mode.

The DrxParaGroup.EnterDRXSwitch parameter is set to OFF(Off).

o The traffic volume of the UE is high.


The measured traffic volume is higher than the threshold specified by the
CellDrxPara.FddExitDrxThd parameter in the period specified by
theCellDrxPara.DataAmountStatTimer parameter.

However, if the CellDrxPara.FddExitDrxThd parameter is set to 1000, the


UE does not exit DRX mode.

 The Drx.DrxAlgSwitch parameter is set to OFF(Off), and the eNodeB instructs the
UE to exit DRX mode in the RRC connection reconfiguration procedure.
 The UE in connected mode experiences a radio link failure (RLF) when radio
conditions deteriorate.
 During a handover, the eNodeB instructs the UE to exit DRX mode.
 The UE enters the TTI bundling state.

3.4 Working Mechanism


In DRX mode, the UE no longer constantly monitors the PDCCH. When the UE is in the
active state in DRX mode, its receiver is turned on to monitor the PDCCH. When the UE is in
the sleep state, it no longer monitors the PDCCH and its receiver can be turned off to reduce
power consumption.

3.4.1 Related Concepts

On Duration

When the UE is in DRX mode, it cannot keep its receiver off all the time. It must periodically
turn on its receiver and monitor the PDCCH for incoming signaling for a consecutive period.
This consecutive period is called On Duration, and the related timer is named On Duration
Timer. The DrxParaGroup.OnDurationTimer parameter specifies the On Duration.

DRX Cycle

A DRX cycle is the interval between two occurrences of On Duration. A DRX cycle includes
an On Duration and a possible period of sleep time, as shown in Figure 3-2.

Figure 3-2 DRX cycle

NOTE:

The period following an On Duration may be active or sleep time. For details, see 3.4.3.1
Operation in Active Time.

A DRX cycle consists of active time and sleep time. It may be a long or short cycle.
Active Time

In active time, the UE turns on its receiver and monitors the PDCCH. Active time is equal to
an On Duration plus other possible periods during which the UE needs to turn on its receiver,
for example, a period during which a DRX timer is working or a high-priority service is
being processed. DRX timers include the DRX Inactivity Timer, Contention Resolution
Timer, and DRX Retransmission Timer. For details, see 3.4.3.1 Operation in Active Time.

For a given DRX cycle:

 A longer active time results in a shorter service delay but increased UE power
consumption.
 A shorter active time results in reduced UE power consumption but a longer service
delay.

Sleep Time

During a DRX cycle, the UE is not active during sleep time. During sleep time, the UE turns
off its receiver.

Long DRX Cycle

Using a long DRX cycle can save more power. The long cycle is specified by the mandatory
parameter DrxParaGroup.LongDrxCycle.

NOTE:

If a short DRX cycle is not configured before DRX is enabled, the UE will use the long cycle
after entering DRX mode. If a short cycle has been configured before DRX is enabled, the
UE will preferentially use the short cycle and switches to the long cycle after the timer
defined by DrxParaGroup.DrxShortCycleTimer expires.

Short DRX Cycle

The application of a short DRX cycle is jointly controlled by Drx.ShortDrxSwitch and the
QCI-level DRX switch DrxParaGroup.SupportShortDrx.

A short cycle results in better service experience than a long cycle but saves less power. You
can use the following parameters for configuring a short cycle:

 Drx.ShortDrxSwitch: specifies whether to use short DRX cycles.


 DrxParaGroup.SupportShortDrx: specifies whether services of a specific QCI
support short DRX cycles.
 DrxParaGroup.ShortDRXCycle: specifies the length of a short DRX cycle.

These parameters are optional parameters.

If a short DRX cycle is configured for the UE, the UE will determine when to use the long or
short cycle as described in 3.4.4 Switching Between Long and Short DRX Cycles.
3.4.2 Startup of a DRX Cycle

After the UE enters DRX mode, the On Duration Timer may not start immediately. The timer
starts up and the UE starts a long or short DRX cycle only when the following conditions are
met:

 For a long DRX cycle:

[(SFN x 10) + SSFN] modulo DrxParaGroup.LongDRXCycle = DRX start offset

The long DRX cycle starts at the time specified by the system frame number (SFN) or
system subframe number (SSFN).

 For a short DRX cycle:

[(SFN x 10) + SSFN] modulo DrxParaGroup.ShortDRXCycle = (DRX start offset)


modulo DrxParaGroup.ShortDRXCycle

The short DRX cycle starts at the time specified by the SFN or SSFN.

NOTE:

These formulas are defined in section 5.7 "Discontinuous Reception (DRX)" of 3GPP TS
36.321 V10.5.0.

In these formulas, DRX start offset is the start offset of the long DRX cycle, and (DRX start
offset) modulo DrxParaGroup.ShortDRXCycle is the start offset of the short DRX cycle.
The eNodeB notifies the UE of the long DRX cycle, short DRX cycle, and DRX start offset
in the RRC Connection Reconfiguration message.

If the DrxParaGroup.ShortDRXCycle parameter is set, the value of the LongDrxCycle


parameter must be an integer multiple of the value of the DrxParaGroup.ShortDRXCycle
parameter.

Figure 3-3 shows how the UE enters DRX mode. The eNodeB assigns the same long DRX
cycle of 10 transmission time intervals (TTIs) to both UE 1 and UE 2 in radio frame 0 (whose
SFN is 0) in a cell and instructs them to enter DRX mode respectively at TTI 1 and TTI 0.
UE 1 and UE 2 enter the DRX cycle respectively at TTI 3 and TTI 4, based on the configured
DRX start offset. Therefore, for UE 1, (SFN, SSFN) = (0, 3); for UE 2, (SFN, SSFN) = (0, 4).
Figure 3-3 Entering DRX mode and starting the DRX cycle

3.4.3 Operation in a DRX Cycle

A DRX cycle consists of active time and sleep time. This section describes the operation in
active time and the switching between active time and sleep time.

3.4.3.1 Operation in Active Time

The UE turns on its receiver in active time. According to section 5.7 in 3GPP TS 36.321
V10.5.0, the UE is in active time if any of the following conditions is met:

 The On Duration Timer, DRX Inactivity Timer, DRX Retransmission Timer, or


Contention Resolution Timer is running. For details about the timers, see Table 3-2.
 A scheduling request (SR) sent by the UE on the physical uplink control channel
(PUCCH) is pending.
 An uplink (UL) grant for a pending hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ)
retransmission occurs.
 The UE has not received a PDCCH indicating an initial data transmission after
successfully receiving a Random Access Response in a non-contention-based random
access procedure.

The starting of a timer triggers the starting of active time. Table 3-2 describes DRX timers.

In the On Duration, the DRX Inactivity Timer starts when the UE decodes a PDCCH and
detects that an initial data transmission is about to start. The UE continues to monitor the
PDCCH for new transmissions until the DRX Inactivity Time expires. The timer restarts if a
new transmission occurs. The DRX Inactivity Timer repeatedly restarts because of
continuous data transmission to prolong the active time.

When the DRX Inactivity Timer expires and a short DRX cycle has been configured, the UE
enters a short DRX cycle. For details, see Switching from a Long DRX Cycle to a Short DRX
Cycle.

3.4.3.2 Switching Between Active Time and Sleep Time

Switching between active time and sleep time depends on DRX timers and service processes.

Figure 3-4 illustrates the switching between active time and sleep time in various frequency
division duplex (FDD) mode scenarios.
Figure 3-4 Switching between active time and sleep time

Table 3-3 describes the conditions for starting active time. For example, OD is the condition
for starting the On Duration Timer.

Table 3-3 Conditions for starting active time


Condition Meaning
OD A DRX cycle starts.
IA A PDCCH message indicating an initial DL data transmission is
received.
R The HARQ RTT Timer expires.
SR A UL scheduling request is sent.
UR A UL negative acknowledgment (NACK) is received, and retransmission
is required.
RAR A non-contention-based random access response is received.
Condition Meaning
CR Msg3 is sent in a random access procedure.

The active time shown in the UE DRX status plot in Figure 3-4 combines the active time
described in each of the other plots excluding the plot of HARQ RTT Timer.

In the plot of HARQ RTT Timer, "DL HARQ raises" refers to one of the two DL HARQ
transmission scenarios:

 A semi-persistent DL data transmission is scheduled to start at the subframe.


 A DL data transmission is scheduled to start at the subframe, which the UE learns by
monitoring the PDCCH.

3.4.4 Switching Between Long and Short DRX Cycles

Although the eNodeB assigns both long and short DRX cycles to the UE, the UE uses a long
or short DRX cycle at a time. The UE can switch between long and short DRX cycles
according to certain rules.

Switching from a Long DRX Cycle to a Short DRX Cycle

If the eNodeB delivers short DRX cycle parameters to the UE, the UE will exit the long DRX
cycle and enter a short DRX cycle if either of the following occurs:

 The DRX Inactivity Timer expires.

If there is data to transmit, the eNodeB starts the DRX Inactivity Timer. When the
DRX Inactivity Timer expires, the short DRX cycle starts.

 The UE receives the DRX command MCE.

After the UE receives the DRX command MCE, the UE enters a short DRX cycle.
Otherwise, the UE still uses the long DRX cycle.

Switching from a Short DRX Cycle to a Long DRX Cycle

If the UE does not receive new data during a specified period after entering a short DRX
cycle, it will switch to a long DRX cycle to save power.

The period before the UE switches to a long DRX cycle is called the lifetime of the short
DRX cycle. The lifetime is measured by the number of times the short DRX cycle repeats.
The DRX Short Cycle Timer determines how long the short DRX cycle runs. The
DrxParaGroup.DrxShortCycleTimer parameter sets the time for the DRX Short Cycle
Timer. After the DRX Short Cycle Timer expires, the UE uses the long DRX cycle.

3.5 DRX Parameters for Various Scenarios


UEs enter the active state and sleep state based on DRX configurations, as described in the
previous chapters.

For common services on common UEs, users can configure one set of DRX parameters. For
details, see 3.5.1 DRX Parameters for VoIP.

For special UEs or ANR measurements, users can configure special DRX parameters. For
details, see 3.5.2 DRX Parameters for Special UEs and 3.5.3 DRX Parameters for ANR
Measurements.

Table 3-4 lists the parameters for each scenario.

3.5.1 DRX Parameters for VoIP

For VoIP, a set of special DRX parameter settings is available to reduce UE power
consumption while maintaining VoIP capacity.

As VoIP services have a QCI of 1, the DRX parameters for QCI 1 can be used for VoIP
services. As bearers with QCI 5 are set up for IMS signaling transmission during VoIP
services, the DRX parameters for QCI 5 also need to be set.

When semi-persistent scheduling is enabled, configuring short DRX cycles for VoIP is not
recommended. When the UE has multiple bearers with different QCIs (for example, QCI 1,
QCI 5, and QCI 9), the DrxParaGroup.LongDrxCycle parameter for QCI 1 must be set to
the minimum value so that the eNodeB selects the DRX parameters for QCI 1 as the DRX
parameters for this UE.

Long DRX Cycle for VoIP

A long DRX cycle is specified by the DrxParaGroup.LongDrxCycle parameter.

The VoIP scheduling period is 20 ms. When semi-persistent scheduling is disabled, it is


recommended that the DrxParaGroup.LongDrxCycle parameter for QCI 1 be set to
SF40(40 subframes). When semi-persistent scheduling is enabled, it is recommended that
the DrxParaGroup.LongDrxCycle parameter for QCI 1 be set to SF20(20 subframes).

 If the parameter value is too small, the UE will probably stay in the active state and
consume more power.
 If the parameter value is too large, the VoIP scheduling may be performed during
sleep time. This delays packet transmission and affects user experience.

Short DRX Cycle for VoIP

If the long DRX cycle configured for VoIP is shorter than or equal to 20 ms, configuring a
short DRX cycle is not recommended. If a short DRX cycle is configured, less power will be
saved and no obvious decrease will be seen in service delay.

On Duration Timer for VoIP

Based on the number of UEs with VoIP services, set an appropriate value for the On Duration
Timer, which is specified by the DrxParaGroup.OnDurationTimer parameter. If there are
a large number of UEs with VoIP services, set a large value for this parameter to ensure the
scheduling of VoIP services.
It is recommended that the DrxParaGroup.OnDurationTimer parameter for QCI 1 be set
to PSF10(10 PDCCH subframes).

DRX Inactivity Timer for VoIP

It is recommended that the DrxParaGroup.DrxInactivityTimer parameter for QCI 1 be set


to PSF80(80 PDCCH subframes).

DRX Retransmission Timer for VoIP

It is recommended that the DrxParaGroup.DrxReTxTimer parameter for QCI 1 be set to


SF8(8 subframes).

Recommended DRX Parameter Settings for VoIP

Table 3-5 lists the recommended DRX parameter settings for VoIP when semi-persistent
scheduling is enabled.

3.5.2 DRX Parameters for Special UEs

Not all UEs are sensitive to power consumption. For example, data cards or UEs with a
sufficient power supply focus on service delay rather than power consumption. These UEs
are called special UEs. The subscriber profile ID for RAT/frequency priority (RFSP) function
allows operators to designate a UE as a special UE and use special DRX parameters for this
UE to improve service performance and increase energy efficiency.

On the Evolved Packet Core (EPC) side, the UE RFSP is an integer ranging from 1 to 256.
Operators can define the RFSP and bind it to the mobile station international ISDN number
(MSISDN) of the UE. When the UE accesses the EPC, the RFSP of the UE is included in the
INITIAL CONTEXT SETUP REQUEST message and sent to the eNodeB over the S1
interface.

On the eNodeB side, operators can set the SpidCfg.Spid parameter to an integer ranging
from 1 to 256 on the U2000 or Web LMT. When the RFSP value of the UE is the same as the
SpidCfg.Spid parameter value and the SpidCfg.DrxStatus parameter is set to FALSE, the
eNodeB considers the UE to be a special UE. Otherwise, the eNodeB considers the UE to be
a common UE.

On the UE side, the UE reports its type to the eNodeB using the UE-EUTRA-Capability IE in
a UECapabilityInformation message. If the UE-EUTRA-Capability IE contains
noBenFromBatConsumpOpt, the UE is a special UE. Otherwise, the UE is a common UE.

The UE type (common or special) is reported on both the eNodeB and UE sides. The eNodeB
compares the results reported on the two sides. When the results are inconsistent, the eNodeB
considers the UE to be a special UE. When the results are consistent, the eNodeB identifies
the UE type based on the results and uses the appropriate DRX feature.

The working mode of special UEs is the same as that of common UEs except that DRX
parameters configured for special UEs are different from those configured for common UEs.

3.5.3 DRX Parameters for ANR Measurements

ANR measurements require a relatively long sleep time. If the


DrxParaGroup.LongDrxCycle parameter value is too small, ANR measurements cannot
be completed during this period. If the value is too large, the scheduling delay will be so long
that it fails to meet quality of service (QoS) requirements. When an eNodeB receives a
special-DRX start indication during ANR measurement, the eNodeB configures or
reconfigures a relatively large value for the long DRX cycle, during which UEs perform
ANR measurements in sleep time.

The eNodeB configures the long DRX cycle and the UE performs ANR measurements in
sleep time regardless of whether the general DRX switch Drx.DrxAlgSwitch is set to ON
or OFF.

 If the cells to be measured are E-UTRAN cells, the eNodeB will use the value of the
Drx.LongDrxCycleForAnr parameter as the long DRX cycle.
 If the cells to be measured are GERAN or UTRAN cells, the eNodeB will use the
value of the Drx.LongDRXCycleforIRatAnr parameter as the long DRX cycle.

4 Dynamic DRX
This chapter describes the implementation principles of dynamic DRX. For engineering
guidelines, see 9 Engineering Guidelines for LOFD-00110501 Dynamic DRX.

4.1 Introduction
4.1.1 Definition and Application Scenarios

Definition

Dynamic DRX allows eNodeBs to determine whether to reduce UE power consumption or


signaling overhead based on manual configurations when the amount of UE power
consumption increases rapidly or signaling overhead is high because of UE access to the
network.

Application Scenarios

Dynamic DRX can be used in the following scenarios:

 Networks where smart terminals are mainstream


 Services that use small, sparse packets
 Services that use heartbeat packets

4.1.2 Benefits

Dynamic DRX provides the following benefits but cannot provide all these benefits
simultaneously:

 Reduces UE power consumption. When UE power consumption is high, the eNodeB


sends different DRX parameters to UEs in the synchronization state and UEs in the
out-of-synchronization states, instructing them to dynamically switch between two
sets of DRX parameters.
 Reduces signaling overhead by reducing the amount of RRC connection
establishment and release signaling for services that use small, sparse packets or
heartbeat packets.

The UE inactivity timer is increased to allow UEs to stay in connected mode longer in
the case of high signaling overhead caused by UEs' access to the network.

4.1.3 Process

Figure 4-1 shows the dynamic DRX process.


Figure 4-1 Dynamic DRX process

The dynamic DRX process is described as follows:

1. Dynamic DRX entry phase

After the UE accesses the network, the eNodeB determines whether the UE meets the
conditions for entering dynamic DRX mode. When the conditions are met, the
eNodeB sends the UE an RRC Connection Reconfiguration message with the DRX-
Configuration IE set to setup. The UE then enters dynamic DRX mode based on other
parameters in this IE. For details, see 4.2.1 Entry Conditions.

2. Dynamic DRX execution phase

After the UE enters dynamic DRX mode, the eNodeB determines whether the UE
enters power saving or reduced signaling mode based on the
RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx parameter value. For details, see 4.3
Principles.

3. Dynamic DRX exit phase

The eNodeB determines whether the UE meets the conditions for exiting dynamic
DRX mode. When the conditions are met, the eNodeB sends the UE an RRC
Connection Reconfiguration message with the DRX-Configuration IE set to release.
When the UE receives the message, it immediately clears all the DRX parameters
stored locally and exits dynamic DRX mode. For details, see 4.2.2 Exit Conditions.

4.2 Entry and Exit Conditions


When certain network and UE conditions are met, the eNodeB instructs UEs to enter or exit
dynamic DRX mode. This section describes the entry and exit conditions.

4.2.1 Entry Conditions

Dynamic DRX is controlled by the DynDrxSwitch(DynDrxSwitch) option of the


CellAlgoSwitch.DynDrxSwitch parameter.

When the DynDrxSwitch(DynDrxSwitch) option of the CellAlgoSwitch.DynDrxSwitch


parameter is selected, dynamic DRX is enabled and the eNodeB delivers the RRC
Connection Reconfiguration message with the DRX-Configuration IE set to setup. The UE
then enters dynamic DRX mode based on other parameters in this IE.

Before dynamic DRX is enabled, the following DRX parameters must be configured:

 Parameters for the synchronization state, including DrxParaGroup.LongDrxCycle,


DrxParaGroup.OnDurationTimer, and DrxParaGroup.DrxInactivityTimer
 Parameters for the out-of-synchronization state, including
CellDrxPara.LongDrxCycleUnsync, CellDrxPara.OndurationTimerUnsync,
and CellDrxPara.DrxInactivityTimerUnsync

The value of the RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx parameter determines


whether to reduce UE power consumption or network signaling overhead.

4.2.2 Exit Conditions

The UE exits dynamic DRX mode in any of the following situations:

 The UE exits dynamic DRX mode after it receives an RRC Connection


Reconfiguration message with the DRX-Configuration IE set to release and clears all
the saved DRX parameters. The eNodeB sends this message if any of the following
conditions is met:
o The QCI of a new service does not allow UEs to enter dynamic DRX mode.

The DrxParaGroup.EnterDrxSwitch parameter is set to OFF(Off) for the


corresponding QCI.
o The traffic volume of the UE is heavy.

The measured traffic volume is greater than the


CellDrxPara.FddExitDrxThd parameter value during the period specified
by the CellDrxPara.DataAmountStatTimer parameter.

NOTE:

If the CellDrxPara.FddExitDrxThd parameter is set to 1000, the UE will


not exit dynamic DRX mode.

 The DynDrxSwitch(DynDrxSwitch) option of the CellAlgoSwitch.DynDrxSwitch


parameter is deselected, and the eNodeB instructs the UE to exit dynamic DRX mode
during RRC connection reconfiguration.
 The UE in connected mode experiences an RLF when radio conditions deteriorate.
 During a handover, the eNodeB instructs the UE to exit DRX mode. After the
handover, the UE determines whether to reenter dynamic DRX mode according to the
entering conditions.
 The UE is in the TTI bundling state.

4.3 Principles
To allow smart terminals to stay in sleep state longer and consume less power, the eNodeB
selects different DRX parameters for UEs in synchronization and out-of-synchronization
states based on the RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx and
RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimerDynDrx parameter settings. Figure 4-2 shows how a UE
switches between different states.
Figure 4-2 UE state switching

The eNodeB delivers dynamic DRX parameters based on UE status:

 When the UE is in the synchronization state, the eNodeB sends DRX parameters for
the synchronization state to the UE. If the UE does not receive or transmit data during
the period specified by the RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimerDynDrx parameter,
the UE will enter the out-of-synchronization state.

After the timer specified by the RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimerDynDrx


parameter expires, the eNodeB continues to maintain synchronization for the UE for a
protection period of at least 2s to ensure that the DRX parameters for the out-of
synchronization state can be correctly sent to the UE.

When the timer specified by the TimeAlignmentTimer.TimeAlignmentTimer


parameter is about to expire during this protection period, the eNodeB continues to
maintain synchronization for the UE by sending the timing advance (TA) command to
the UE. The purpose is also to ensure that the DRX parameters for the out-of
synchronization state can be correctly sent to the UE.

After the protection period elapses, the eNodeB no longer maintains synchronization
for the UE, that is, the eNodeB no longer sends the TA command to the UE. The UE
enters the out-of-synchronization state only after the timer specified by the
TimeAlignmentTimer.TimeAlignmentTimer parameter expires, as shown in
Figure 4-3.
 When the UE is in the out-of-synchronization state, the eNodeB sends DRX
parameters for the out-of-synchronization state to the UE.
o If the UE does not receive or transmit data during the period specified by the
RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx parameter, the UE will
enter idle mode.
o If a new service arrives within the period specified by the
RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx parameter, the UE will
enter the synchronization state and the eNodeB sends DRX parameters for the
synchronization state to the UE again.
 When the UE is in idle mode and it has new data to receive or transmit, the UE enters
the synchronization state and the eNodeB sends DRX parameters for the
synchronization state to the UE again.

Figure 4-3 Protection mechanism

Dynamic DRX is controlled by the CellAlgoSwitch.DynDrxSwitch parameter. The


principles of dynamic DRX are as follows:

1. If the value of RrcConnStateTime r.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx is greater than the


value of RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimerDynDrx, the eNodeB may not maintain
the synchronization state for the UE and may configure DRX parameters for the out-
of-synchronization state.
o Setting the RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx parameter to a
larger value increases the time the UE is in connected mode, reduces the
number of transitions between connected and idle modes, reduces the
signaling overhead in frequent connection establishments and releases for
small, sparse packets or heartbeat packets, but saves less UE power.
o Setting the RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimerDynDrx parameter to a
smaller value decreases the time the eNodeB synchronizes with the UE and
saves more UE power.

NOTE:

If the CellAlgoSwitch.DynDrxSwitch parameter is on, the settings of the


RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactiveTimer and
RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimer parameters take effect only for UEs not
supporting DRX.

2. When the UE is in the synchronization state, the eNodeB assigns the UE the DRX
parameters for the synchronization state. When the timer defined by the
RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimerDynDrx parameter expires, the eNodeB assigns
the UE the DRX parameters for the out-of-synchronization state.

The eNodeB dynamically switches between the two types of DRX parameters based on UE
status.

5 High-Mobility-Triggered Idle Mode


This chapter describes the implementation principles of the high-mobility-triggered idle mode
feature. For engineering guidelines, see 10 Engineering Guidelines for LOFD-00110502
High-Mobility-Triggered Idle Mode.

5.1 Introduction
5.1.1 Definition and Application Scenarios

If UEs frequently move between cells while staying in connected mode for a long period of
time, a large number of handovers will be triggered, causing excessive handover signaling.

Especially after dynamic DRX is enabled, UEs stay in connected mode for a prolonged
period of time. In this scenario, if UEs move fast, instead of cell reselections, more handovers
are triggered. To prevent handover signaling from affecting eNodeB performance, the
eNodeB uses the high-mobility-triggered idle mode feature.

Definition

High-mobility-triggered idle mode is a state in which the number of handovers and the
amount of related signaling decrease after UEs enter idle mode based on their movement
speeds and the packet sending state.

Application Scenarios
The high-mobility-triggered idle mode feature is mainly used on mobile networks where most
UEs are smart terminals. This feature is suitable for UEs that stay in connected mode and
move frequently, especially for UEs in dynamic DRX mode.

5.1.2 Benefits

The high-mobility-triggered idle mode feature reduces the number of handovers and the
amount of signaling on the entire network, minimizing the impact of handover signaling on
network stability while maintaining user experience.

5.2 Principles
In high- mobility-triggered idle mode, eNodeBs determine whether to release UEs based on
their movement speeds, packet sending states, and camping times. For triggering conditions,
see Working Mechanism.

Characteristics of Fast-Moving UEs

LTE networks are often deployed in hot spots that have the following characteristics:

 Densely populated areas where people are often on the move


 Small spacing between eNodeBs

In these hot spots, handovers are easily triggered for fast-moving UEs.

Figure 5-1 shows that a UE moves between cells in a hot spot.

Figure 5-1 UE movement

Table 5-1 and Table 5-2 list the movement speeds and camping times for a UE passing
through the center coverage areas of cells with radii of 300 m and 500 m.

Table 5-1 Movement speed and camping time of a UE in a cell with a radius of 300 m
Movement Speed (km/h) Camping Time (Seconds)
[30-60] [18-36]
[60-120] [18-9]
> 120 <9
Table 5-2 Movement speed and camping time of a UE in a cell with a radius of 500 m
Movement Speed (km/h) Camping Time (Seconds)
[30-60] [30-60]
[60-120] [15-30]
> 120 < 15

In reality, most UEs do not pass through the cell center and the camping time of these UEs is
even shorter.

Figure 5-2 shows the numbers of service requests triggered by heartbeats.

Figure 5-2 Numbers of service requests triggered by heartbeats

In Figure 5-2, the x-axis specifies the service types and the y-axis specifies the number of
network access requests triggered by heartbeats within an hour. The heartbeat period is equal
to 3600 divided by the number of service requests.

You can extrapolate the following from the data shown in Figure 5-2:

 The heartbeat periods for most services are 180s or longer.


 In each heartbeat period, the UE stays in connected mode for a long time.

During a heartbeat period, if the UE is moving fast, it may pass through several cells
and be handed over many times. For example, during a heartbeat period of 180s, a UE
moving at 30 km/h may pass through five 300 m radius cells. If the UE stays in
connected mode in this period, multiple handovers will be performed. During this
process, no service data is transmitted.
 Most UEs have only heartbeat packets to transmit and receive for an extended period,
a period even longer than the time the UEs take to process other services.

Working Mechanism

The high-mobility-triggered idle mode feature is enabled if the


CellAlgoSwitch.HighMobiTrigIdleModeSwitch parameter is set to ENABLE(Enable).

To avoid a handover, the eNodeB triggers the S1 release procedure after receiving the
measurement report from a UE and instructs the UE to enter idle mode when all of the
following conditions are met:

 The movement speed of the UE is greater than or equal to 30 km/h during the
camping.
 The UE does not transmit data when it is camping on a cell.
 The camping time is greater than or equal to 10s.

As the UE has data to transmit only when a heartbeat period begins, instructing the UE to
enter idle mode has no impact on the UE's services.

Figure 5-3 shows the working mechanism of the high-mobility-triggered idle mode feature.

Mutually Exclusive Features

LOFD-001008 Ultra High Speed Mobility

When DRX is enabled in ultra high speed mobility scenarios, the handover success rate
decreases, the service drop rate increases, and other performance indicators may also
deteriorate.

Impacted Features

Scheduling

DRX has the following impact on scheduling:

 When no system information is being delivered and no paging is performed, the


eNodeB enables resource scheduling for the UE only during active time.
 In DRX mode, the UE sends an SR when there is data in the UE buffer, regardless of
whether the UE is in the active state. Even if the UE is in the sleep state, it
immediately switches to the active state and begins to monitor the PDCCH. When the
UE receives the data initially sent on the PDCCH, the eNodeB starts the DRX
Inactivity Timer to increase the active time until the UE obtains resources.
 For downlink scheduling (provided in LBFD-002025 Basic Scheduling and LBFD-
002005 DL Asynchronous HARQ), HARQ feedback takes priority over DRX. That
is, UEs can provide HARQ feedback regardless of whether they are in active time.
 For uplink scheduling (provided in LBFD-002025 Basic Scheduling and LBFD -
002006 UL Synchronous HARQ), the eNodeB allows the TTI during which the
uplink retransmitted data in the pending state to be assigned uplink scheduling grant
during active time. This facilitates ACK/NACK feedback or retransmission
scheduling. During the TTI, UEs need to receive HARQ feedback.
 There is a small chance that false detection of SRs may result in inconsistent DRX
status information between the eNodeB and the UE. When DRX is enabled, uplink
and downlink BLERs may increase. To reduce false SR detection, you are advised to
take one or more of the following actions:
o Set the CellUlschAlgo.SriFalseDetThdSwitch parameter to ON(ON) when
there are no VoIP services.
o Set the CellAlgoSwitch.UlSchSwitch parameter to PuschDtxSwitch-1. This
setting may lead to an increase in the service drop rate in weak coverage or
strong interference scenarios.
o Set the CellAlgoSwitch.UlSchSwitch parameter to
UlEnhancedSrSchSwitch-1.

For details, see Scheduling Feature Parameter Description.

 When the UE is in the uplink pre-scheduling state, the eNodeB instructs the UE to
exit the uplink pre-scheduling state after the UE enters DRX mode. Upon exiting
DRX mode, the UE enters the pre-scheduling state.
 When the UE is in the TTI bundling state (function provided in LOFD-001048 TTI
Bundling), the eNodeB does not instruct the UE to enter DRX mode unless required
during ANR measurement. When the UE is in DRX mode, the eNodeB instructs the
UE to exit DRX mode after TTI bundling is initiated. When the UE is performing
ANR measurements in DRX mode, the eNodeB does not instruct the UE to exit DRX
mode.

Connection Management

The UE immediately responds to random access requests, regardless of whether it is in the


active state.

Mobility Management in Connected Mode

During different stages of a handover, DRX functions in different ways:

 When the handover process starts:

After receiving a handover decision indicating that the handover request has been
accepted, the source eNodeB sends an RRC Connection Reconfigura tion message to
instruct the UE to exit DRX mode. If this happens during sleep time, the UE will not
receive the message until after the next active time arrives.

 When the handover succeeds:

The eNodeB determines whether to apply DRX to the UE based on whether DRX is
enabled.

 When the handover fails:

The UE remains in the current cell, and the source eNodeB checks whether the UE
can enter DRX mode.

NOTE:

For details about the handover process in DRX mode, see Intra-RAT Mobility
Management in Connected Mode Feature Parameter Description

Measurement

When measurement configurations conflict with DRX configurations, measurement takes


priority.

NOTE:

For details about the handover process in DRX mode, see Intra-RAT Mobility Management in
Connected Mode Feature Parameter Description

UE measurement in the LTE system is classified into common measurement and gap-assisted
measurement. UE measurement in the LTE system is classified into common measurement
and gap-assisted measurement. Common measurement is used for intra-frequency
measurement, and gap-assisted measurement is used for inter-frequency measurement and
inter-radio access technology (RAT) measurement.

 Common measurement

For random access, the UE enters the active state if it is in sleep time and then uses
the first available random access channel (RACH) to send UL measurement reports.

In other scenarios, the UE sends measurement reports only in active time. If the UE is
in the sleep state, it will send measurement reports in active time in the next DRX
cycle.

 Gap-assisted measurement

In gap-assisted measurement, gaps with 6 ms each are generated every 40 ms or 80


ms. To reduce the impact on data transmission, the eNodeB needs to generate gaps in
sleep time. If gaps have been configured for the UE, the UE cannot enter DRX mode.

The UE cannot enter DRX mode in either of the following situations:

o Periodic measurement reporting based on the gap-assisted measurement has


been enabled for the modules that have subscribed to it. Such a module may
be the FARS cell tracing module or the Nastar module.
o Some operations are performed by mistake, which can be checked by querying
the operation logs on the U2000.

As shown in Figure 6-1, gaps are generated every 40 ms, six TTIs earlier than the
DRX cycle.

Figure 6-1 DRX cycles and gap-assisted measurements

CQI

In DRX mode, the UE turns off its receiver intermittently. When the UE is in the sleep state,
the eNodeB does not deliver channel quality indicator (CQI) or sounding reference signal
(SRS) measurement configurations and the UE reports the measurements in compliance with
the following protocol requirements:

 For UEs complying with 3GPP Release 8, CQIs, precoding matrix indicators (PMIs),
and rank indicators (RIs) can be reported over the PUCCH only in active time.
 For UEs complying with 3GPP Release 9, CQIs, PMIs, and RIs can be reported over
the PUCCH only in the On Duration.

The CellDrxPara.CqiMask parameter controls when CQIs, PMIs, and RIs can be reported
in the On Duration:

 If this parameter is set to ON, CQIs, PMIs, and RIs can be reported only in the On
Duration.
 If this parameter is set to OFF, CQIs, PMIs, and RIs can be reported in active time.
 SRSs can be sent only in active time.

CQI configurations affect the settings of DRX parameters controlled by the eNodeB. The
eNodeB can automatically adjust the value of the operator-defined
DrxParaGroup.OnDurationTimer parameter so that the number of CQIs reported by the UE
during a period meets the requirements for downlink scheduling performance.

NOTE:

Currently, most UEs that comply with 3GPP Release 9 do not support CQI mask. Retain the
default value OFF of the CellDrxPara.CqiMask parameter for these UEs.

Timing Control

When SRSs are used for timing control, the TA measurement precision for uplink
synchronization depends on the number of times the UE reports SRSs. To acquire sufficient
SRSs, the eNodeB adaptively adjusts the value of the DrxParaGroup.LongDrxCycle
parameter based on the SRS configurations of the UE and the period set for delivery of TA
measurements to the UE. Therefore, the value delivered to the UE may differ from that set by
MML commands. The value must be a multiple of 10 ms because the SRS reporting period is
a multiple of 10 ms and the CQI reporting period is a multiple of 5 ms for Huawei eNodeBs.
The specific value depends on other parameters:

 When TimeAlignmentTimer.TimingAdvCmdOptSwitch is set to ON, the


eNodeB does not restrict the setting of DrxParaGroup.LongDrxCycle to ensure
timing performance. However, it is recommended that the cycle not exceed 320 ms.
Settings greater than 320 ms may affect uplink timing performance.
 When TimeAlignmentTimer.TimingMeasMode is set to ALLMEASMODE, the
eNodeB does not impose restrictions on DRX parameter settings.

When demodulation reference signals (DMRSs) are used for timing control and DRX is
enabled, at least one active time must exist during the period set for delivery of TA
measurements so that the eNodeB can deliver scheduling information to trigger the delivery.

NOTICE:
The eNodeB configures DRX parameters for UEs based on parameter validity, protocol
compatibility, and chip compatibility. For example, UEs with Qualcomm chips consider the
settings of certain DRX parameters invalid and the RRC connection needs to be
reestablished. These DRX parameters may be adjusted after the validity check. Validity
check is performed to see whether:

 The long DRX cycle should be an integer multiple of the short DRX cycle. Otherwise,
the short DRX cycle is automatically adjusted to an appropriate value.
 The long DRX cycle should be an integer multiple of 10. Otherwise, it is
automatically adjusted to an appropriate value.
 The OnDurationTimer value should be less than the short DRX cycle. Otherwise, the
short cycle is not configured.
 The OnDurationTimer value should be less than the long DRX cycle. Otherwise, the
DRX parameters are not configured.

Carrier Aggregation

When carrier aggregation (CA) is enabled, the DRX mechanism works as follows:

 If DRX is enabled in both the primary serving cell (PCell) and the secondary serving
cell (SCell) for a CA UE, when the serving eNodeB of the PCell sends an MCE
command to activate the SCell, the eNodeB will handle the UE states in the cells as
follows:
o If the UE has entered DRX mode in the PCell, the eNodeB will instruct the
UE to enter DRX mode in the SCell, with the DRX parameters for the PCell
applied to the SCell.
o If the UE has not entered DRX mode in the PCell, the eNodeB will determine
whether the UE should enter DRX mode in both the PCell and SCell based on
the traffic volume of the UE.
 If DRX is enabled in the PCell but disabled in the SCell, the UE will exit DRX mode
(if it has entered this mode) after the SCell is configured for the UE.
 If DRX is disabled in the PCell, the UE will not enter DRX mode in either the PCell
or the SCell, regardless of whether DRX is enabled in the SCell.

For details about CA features, see Carrier Aggregation Feature Parameter Description.

LOFD-001007 High Speed Mobility

In high speed mobility scenarios, if the long DRX cycle is 40 ms or shorter, no obvious effect
will be seen in UE power saving; if the long DRX cycle is longer than 40 ms, SRS-based
timing and reference signal received power (RSRP) measurement will be affected. Both
configurations may result in a low handover success rate, a high service drop rate, a large
number of RRC connection reestablishments, and a low reestablishment success rate.
Therefore, DRX is not recommended for high speed mobility scenarios.

7 Network Impact
7.1 LBFD-002017 DRX
System Capacity
None

Network Performance

The sleep time in DRX helps reduce UE power consumption but may increase delay for
ongoing services, resulting in decreased traffic volume or throughput.

DRX has the following impacts on network performance:

 If the value of the DrxParaGroup.OnDurationTimer parameter is too small, the


VoIP capacity will decrease, or the uplink and downlink packet loss rates for voice
services in heavy-load scenarios will increase. A large value for this parameter results
in reduced UE power saving.
 If the value of the DrxParaGroup.LongDrxCycle parameter is too large, the CQI
reporting period will increase, and the traffic volume or throughput under functions
such as scheduling and multiple-input- multiple-output (MIMO) will decrease. In
addition, the handover success rate decreases, and the service drop rate increases.
These impacts are more obvious in high-speed mobility or weak-coverage scenarios.
If the value of the DrxParaGroup.LongDrxCycle parameter is too small, the UE
power saving effect will deteriorate.
 If the value of the DrxParaGroup.DRXInactivityTimer parameter is too small, the
uplink and downlink cell throughput as well as user-perceived uplink and downlink
throughput may decrease, or the uplink and downlink packet loss rates will increase
for voice services when there are a large number of UEs in connected mode (for
example, when the average number of UEs in connected mode exceeds 100). When
there are no VoIP services, you are advised to set the
DrxParaGroup.DRXInactivityTimer parameter to be greater than or equal to 80
ms.
 If the sleep time is too short, ANR measurements will fail.
 UEs cannot be scheduled in sleep time. In this situation, the resource allocation for
TA measurements is affected. Consequently, the L.RRC.StateTrans.Syn2Unsyn
counter value and the number of RRC connection reestablishments are affected. As a
result, the random access success rate is affected.

 After DRX is enabled, UEs can report CQIs only during active time. If the channel
quality of cell edge users (CEUs) fluctuates significantly during sleep time, the UEs
cannot report CQIs for modulation and coding scheme (MCS) adjustment in a timely
manner. As a result, the bit error rate (BER) for CEUs may increase, and the downlink
packet loss rate for voice services or data services may rise.
 When the UE initiates CSFB during a handover, the eNodeB preferentially processes
the handover but fails to process the CSFB. After the handover, the mobility
management entity (MME) initiates the CSFB again. When DRX is enabled, the
presence of the sleep time increases the probability of CSFB during handovers. In this
case, the number of CSFB-triggered handover failures and the number of CSFB-
triggered handover attempts may increase, while the number of successful CSFB
executions remains unchanged. As a result, the CSFB-triggered handover success rate
may decrease, but this has a very little impact on user experience.

 After DRX is enabled, multiple small packets accumulated during sleep time can be
scheduled all at once. The control channel element (CCE) usage and equivalent CCE
usage may decrease. However, the uplink/downlink cell throughput or user-perceived
uplink/downlink throughput may increase.

If there is severe uplink/downlink interference, cell edge users are less likely to be
scheduled and cell center users are more likely to be scheduled. If the PRB usage
remains at the highest level, DRX may increase the average CQI, uplink/downlink
cell throughput, or user-perceivable uplink/downlink throughput.

 After DRX is enabled, the long DRX cycle specified by the


DrxParaGroup.LongDrxCycle parameter must be shorter than the timer length
specified by the RlcPdcpParaGroup.DiscardTimer parameter. Otherwise, packet
loss may occur for ping services, small packet services, or VoIP services, especially
for services of QCIs 1 and 5.
 To reduce the CPU usage, it is recommended that:
o DRX be disabled for heavy traffic scenarios. Otherwise, multiple timers need
to be maintained for each UE. The CPU consumption of the baseband
processing board increases with the increasing number of UEs.
o The CellDrxPara.FddEnterDrxThd and CellDrxPara.FddExitDrxThd
parameters be set to 1000. Otherwise, a large amount of RRC connection
reconfiguration signaling is generated and the CPU usage of the main control
board or BBP is high.
 DRX takes effect once the E-UTRAN radio access bearer (E-RAB) is set up, leading
to failures in UE pre-scheduling. At the same time, some UEs may fail to send SRs
due to compatibility issues. This leads to fluctuations in the E-RAB setup success
rate. It is recommended that the smart preallocation function be enabled to avoid these
issues.
 When DRX is enabled and the sleep time specified by the
DrxParaGroup.LongDrxCycle, DrxParaGroup.OnDurationTimer, or
DrxParaGroup.DRXInactivityTimer parameter is lengthened, the probability of
fault detection of SRs in sleep time increases. False detection of SRs causes the
eNodeB to periodically detect CQIs when UEs have not reported any. As a result, the
eNodeB detects a large number of random CQI values ranging from 0 to 15. This
leads to fluctuations in both the CQI distribution and the average CQI. For example,
when most UEs are close to the eNodeB and the proportion of high-order CQIs (for
example, CQIs 11 to 15) is very high, the average CQI may decrease. As these
random values are detected in sleep time (when the UEs have no data to transmit),
these random values have no impact on scheduling.

The impact on key performance indicators (KPIs) is dependent on the specific service type,
application scenario, and parameter configuration. Specific KPIs are not listed in this section.

NOTE:

When DRX is enabled, the eNodeB instructs the UE to exit the preallocation state. The
performance of TCP services with ping delay and a small size deteriorates, the uplink
throughput increases, and the number of RBs for uplink frequency-selective scheduling and
that for UL Comp decreases. For details, see Scheduling Feature Parameter Description.
In DRX mode, you can enable smart preallocation to reduce the impact of UE exiting the
preallocation state. However, the power saving effect will deteriorate as the smart
preallocation duration increases.

7.2 LOFD-00110501 Dynamic DRX


System Capacity

None

Network Performance

LOFD-00110501 Dynamic DRX has the same impact as LBFD-002017 DRX on network
performance. For details, see 7.1 LBFD-002017 DRX.

According to section 8.1.2.2 "E-UTRAN intra frequency measurements" in 3GPP TS 36.133


V10.0.0, the reference signal received power (RSRP) measurement period is an integer
multiple of the long DRX cycle. After DRX parameters for out-of-synchronization UEs are
set, the RSRP measurement period increases. As a result, the number of delayed handovers,
service drops, or RRC connection reestablishments increases.

When the RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx parameter is set to a large


value according to operations in 9.2 Required Information, the large value has the following
impacts:

 The total number of E-RAB releases decreases, while the number of abnormal E-RAB
releases slightly changes. The decreased number of E-RAB releases is equal to the
number of E-RABs in UE contexts when the UEs switch from the uplink
synchronization state to the uplink out-of-synchronization state.

To ensure the accuracy of the calculated service drop rate, add the value of the L.E-
RAB.Num.Syn2Unsyn counter to the denominator and subtract the value of the L.E-
RAB.Release.Unsyn counter from the denominator. The formula is as follows:

Service drop rate (%) = L.E-RAB.AbnormRel/(L.E-RAB.AbnormRel + L.E-


RAB.NormRel + L.E-RAB.Num.Syn2Unsyn - L.E-RAB.Release.Unsyn)

 The number of RRC connection establishments decreases significantly. In some


scenarios (for example, weak coverage scenarios), the number of failed RRC
connection setups does not decrease proportionally. The number of decreased RRC
connection setups converts into the number of times UEs switch from the out-of-
synchronization state to the synchronization state.

To ensure the accuracy of the calculated service RRC connection setup success rate,
add the value of the L.RRC.StateTrans.Unsyn2Syn.Succ counter to the numerator
and add the value of the L.RRC.StateTrans.Unsyn2Syn counter to the denominator.
The formula is as follows:
Service RRC connection setup success rate (%) = (L.RRC.ConnReq.Succ.Mt +
L.RRC.ConnReq.Succ.MoData + L.RRC.ConnReq.Succ.EMC +
L.RRC.ConnReq.Succ.HighPri + L.RRC.ConnReq.Succ.DelayTol +
L.RRC.StateTrans.Unsyn2Syn.Succ)/(L.RRC.ConnReq.Att.Mt +
L.RRC.ConnReq.Att.MoData + L.RRC.ConnReq.Att.EMC +
L.RRC.ConnReq.Att.HighPri + L.RRC.ConnReq.Att.DelayTol +
L.RRC.StateTrans.Unsyn2Syn)

 The number of E-RAB setups decreases significantly. In some scenarios (for example,
weak coverage scenarios), the number of failed E-RAB setups does not decrease
proportionately. The number of decreased E-RAB setups converts into the number of
times UEs switch from the out-of-synchronization state to the synchronization state.

To ensure the accuracy of the calculated E-RAB setup success rate, add the value of
the L.E-RAB.StateTrans.Unsyn2Syn.Succ counter to the numerator and add the
value of the L.E-RAB.StateTrans.Unsyn2Syn.Att counter to the denominator. The
formula is as follows:

E-RAB setup success rate (%) = (L.E-RAB.SuccEst + L.E-


RAB.StateTrans.Unsyn2Syn.Succ)/(L.E-RAB.AttEst + L.E-
RAB.StateTrans.Unsyn2Syn.Att)

 The number of UEs in connected mode increases.


 The number of handovers increases in networks with high UE mobility.

When dynamic DRX is enabled, dedicated preambles are used in the switching from the out-
of-synchronization state to the synchronization state caused by downlink data transmission
and the number of contention-based random access attempts decreases. If the number of
contention-based random access failures remains unchanged, the contention-based random
access success rate will decrease.

When dynamic DRX is enabled and the timer specified by the


RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimerDynDrx parameter expires, the eNodeB increases the
DrxParaGroup.LongDrxCycle parameter value (for example, 1280 ms). This long cycle
increases the probability of fault detection of SRs in sleep time. False detection of SRs causes
the eNodeB to periodically detect CQIs when UEs have not reported any. As a result, the
eNodeB detects a large number of random CQI values ranging from 0 to 15. This leads to
fluctuations in both the CQI distribution and the average CQI. For example, when most UEs
are close to the eNodeB and the proportion of high-order CQIs (for example, CQIs 11 to 15)
is very high, the average CQI may decrease. As these random values are detected in sleep
time (when the UEs have no data to transmit), these random values have no impact on
scheduling.

When dynamic DRX is enabled and the timer specified by the


RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimerDynDrx parameter expires, the eNodeB uses a
protection mechanism to ensure that the DRX parameters for the out-of-synchronization state
can be sent to the UE. During the protection period, if the UE has uplink or downlink data to
transmit or the eNodeB delivers a TA command to the UE, the values of the following
counters may fluctuate, as shown in Figure 7-1:
 L.RRC.StateTrans.Unsyn2Syn
 L.RRC.StateTrans.Syn2Unsyn
 L.RRC.StateTrans.Unsyn2Syn.Succ
 L.E-RAB.Num.Syn2Unsyn
 L.E-RAB.StateTrans.Unsyn2Syn.Succ
 L.E-RAB.StateTrans.Unsyn2Syn.Att
 L.E-RAB.Release.Unsyn

8.4.2 Data Preparation

This section describes the data that you need to collect for setting parameters. Required data
is data that you must collect for all scenarios. Collect scenario-specific data when necessary
for a specific feature deployment scenario.

There are three types of data sources:

 Network plan (negotiation not required): parameter values planned and set by the
operator
 Network plan (negotiation required): parameter values planned by the operator and
negotiated with the evolved packet core (EPC) or peer transmission equipment
 User-defined: parameter values set by users

When the cell serves a large
number of UEs, the probability
that UEs are scheduled
centrally decreases, and the
downlink scheduling delay for
UEs decreases, and UE
downlink throughput increases.

It is recommended that this


switch be turned on when SRS
resources are not allocated for
UEs or there is a large number
of UEs in the cell.

NOTICE:

Theoretically, a long DRX cycle of 320


ms prolongs the interval at which the
measured RSRP is reported. This may
reduce the handover success rate,
which is closely related to UE mobility
and weak-coverage networking. Lab
tests need to be conducted for specific
scenarios. If the test results match
customer expectation, a long DRX
cycle of 320 ms can be used. In cells
where UEs move at high speeds, use
the default long DRX cycle of 40 ms.

8.4.6 Activation Observation

Scenario 1: Setting DRX Parameters for Common UEs

The activation observation procedure is as follows:

1. Run the MOD DRX command to turn on the DRX switch.


2. Run the LST CELLSTANDARDQCI command with the Cell.LocalCellId and
StandardQci.Qci parameters specified to query the DRX parameter group ID.
3. Run the LST DRXPARAGROUP command to query the settings of the DRX
parameter group.

If the value of DrxParaGroup.EnterDrxSwitch is ON(On), DRX has been


activated for bearers with the specified QCI.

4. Enable a UE to access the network and maintain low traffic in the uplink and
downlink on the UE. Then, check the RRC Connection Reconfiguration message
(displayed as RRC_CONN_RECFG on the tracing client) on the Uu interface.

If the message contains DRX parameters as shown in Figure 8-2, the eNodeB has
instructed the UE to enter DRX mode.

Figure 8-2 RRC Connection Reconfiguration message (1)

NOTE:
Due to the limitation of the CQI and SRS, the configured values for the
DrxParaGroup.OnDurationTimer and DrxParaGroup.LongDrxCycle
parameters are inconsistent with the values delivered by the eNodeB.

Scenario 2: Setting DRX Parameters for Special UEs

The prerequisite for this scenario is that an SPID has been set on the EPC for the international
mobile subscriber identity (IMSI) of a UE.

The activation observation procedure is as follows:

1. Run the ADD SPIDCFG command to add the SPID configuration for the eNodeB.
2. Run the MOD DRX command to turn on the DRX switch.
3. Enable a UE to access the network and maintain low traffic in the uplink and
downlink on the UE. Then, check the RRC Connection Reconfiguration message
(displayed as RRC_CONN_RECFG on the tracing client) on the Uu interface.

If the message contains RFSP-specific DRX parameters as shown in Figure 8-3, the
eNodeB has instructed the UE to enter DRX mode.

Figure 8-3 RRC Connection Reconfiguration message (2)

Scenario 3: Setting DRX Parameters for ANR Measurements

The eNodeB configures or reconfigures DRX parameters for UEs during ANR measurement
regardless of whether the Drx.DrxAlgSwitch parameter is set to ON or OFF.

The activation observation procedure is as follows:

1. Run the MOD DRX command to turn on the DRX switch and set the
Drx.LongDrxCycleForAnr and Drx.LongDRXCycleforIRatAnr parameters.
o The value of the Drx.LongDrxCycleForAnr parameter is used as the long
DRX cycle if the ANR measurements are performed on E-UTRAN cells.
o The value of the Drx.LongDRXCycleforIRatAnr parameter is used as the
long DRX cycle if the ANR measurements are performed on GERAN or
UTRAN cells.
2. Check the RRC Connection Reconfiguration message on the Uu interface. (The RRC
Connection Reconfiguration message is delivered when ANR measurement is
required.)

If the message contains DRX parameters as shown in Figure 8-4, the eNodeB has
configured DRX parameters for the UE during ANR measurement.

Figure 8-4 RRC Connection Reconfiguration message (3)

3. Run the MOD DRX command to turn off the DRX switch.
4. Check the RRC Connection Reconfiguration message on the Uu interface when the
UE is successfully handed over to a new cell.

If the message contains DRX parameters, the eNodeB has configured DRX
parameters for the UE during ANR measurement.

8.4.7 Reconfiguration

eNodeBs are reconfigured for DRX in batches. For details, see the introduction to batch
reconfiguration operations in eNodeB Reconfiguration Guide.

8.4.8 Deactivation

8.4.8.1 Using the CME to Perform Batch Configuration

Batch reconfiguration using the CME is the recommended method to deactivate a feature on
eNodeBs. This method reconfigures all data, except neighbor relationships, for multiple
eNodeBs in a single procedure. The procedure for feature deactivation is similar to that for
feature activation described in 8.4.5.2 Using the CME to Perform Batch Configuration for
Existing eNodeBs. In the procedure, modify parameters according to Table 8-1.

8.4.8.2 Using the CME to Perform Single Configuration

On the CME, set parameters according to Table 8-1. For detailed instructions, see 8.4.5.3
Using the CME to Perform Single Configuration described for feature activation.

8.4.8.3 Using MML Commands

1. Run the MOD DRX command to turn off the DRX switch.

MOD DRX: DrxAlgSwitch=OFF;

2. Run the MOD TATIMER command to restore the setting of the


TimeAlignmentTimer.TimeAlignmentTimer parameter.

MOD TATIMER: LocalCellId=0, TimeAlignmentTimer=SF1920;

8.5 Maintenance
8.5.1 Performance Monitoring

After activating this feature, use the following counters for monitoring:

 L.Cdrx.Enter.Num and L.Cdrx.Exit.Num: used to monitor how often a UE enters


and exits DRX mode.
 L.Traffic.User.Cdrx.Avg: used to monitor the average number of UEs that enter
DRX mode on the network.
 L.Cdrx.Active.TtiNum and L.Cdrx.Sleep.TtiNum: used to indirectly monitor the
power saving effect of UEs in the network.
 L.Voip.Cdrx.Active.TtiNum and L.Voip.Cdrx.Sleep.TtiNum: used to monitor the
power saving effect of UEs performing VoIP services.
 Handover-related counters: used to monitor the handover performance of UEs in
DRX mode and the proportion of UEs in the DRX state during handovers.

8.5.2 Parameter Optimization

After DRX is enabled, the following parameters may need to be modified:

Parameter Name Parameter ID Setting Notes


FDDEnterDrxThresh CellDrxPara.FddEnterDrxThd This parameter specifies the
old threshold for UEs to enter
DRX mode in an FDD cell.
This threshold is used in the
Parameter Name Parameter ID Setting Notes
DRX algorithm.

It is expressed as the
proportion of the number of
TTIs with data transmission to
the total number of TTIs. If
the traffic volume at a UE is
equal to or below this
threshold, the eNodeB
instructs the UE to stay in or
enter DRX mode. The value of
the
CellDrxPara.FddEnterDrxT
hd parameter must be less
than that of the
CellDrxPara.FddExitDrxTh
d parameter under the same
Cell MO.

The value 300 is


recommended.

To prevent UEs from


frequently entering and exiting
DRX mode for traffic volume
reasons, it is recommended
that the
CellDrxPara.FddEnterDrxT
hd parameter be set to 1000.
With this setting, the eNodeB
does not determine whether
UEs need to enter or exit DRX
mode based on traffic volume;
instead, the eNodeB instructs
UEs to directly enter DRX
mode during the initial access.
For this purpose, the eNodeB
sends DRX parameters to UEs
during the initial access
without additional RRC
connection reconfiguration
signaling.
FDDExitDrxThreshol CellDrxPara.FddExitDrxThd This parameter specifies the
d threshold for UEs to exit DRX
mode in an FDD cell. This
threshold is used in the DRX
Parameter Name Parameter ID Setting Notes
algorithm.

It is expressed as the
proportion of the number of
TTIs with data transmission to
the total number of TTIs. If
the traffic volume at a UE is
equal to or higher than this
threshold, the eNodeB
instructs the UE to stay in non-
DRX mode or exit DRX
mode. The value of the
CellDrxPara.FddEnterDrxT
hd parameter must be less
than that of the
CellDrxPara.FddExitDrxTh
d parameter under the same
Cell MO.

The value 800 is


recommended.
DataAmoutStateTime CellDrxPara.DataAmountStatTi This parameter specifies the
r mer UE traffic measurement
period. The traffic volume of a
UE is measured during this
period. The DRX algorithm
determines whether the UE
should enter or exit DRX
mode based on this
measurement.

The value 30 is recommended.


Long DRX Cycle for Drx.LongDrxCycleForAnr This parameter specifies the
ANR long DRX cycle for intra-RAT
ANR measurement. It is
recommended that this
parameter be set to a value
greater than 256 ms to
increase the measurement
success rate.

8.5.3 Troubleshooting

Fault Description

After accessing the network, the UE cannot enter DRX mode.


Fault Handling

1. Run the LST DRX command to check the DRX switch setting.
o If the DRX switch setting is Off, run the MOD DRX command to turn on the
DRX switch.
o If the DRX switch setting is On, go to 2.
2. Run the LST CELLDRXPARA command to check the FDD enter DRX
threshold(per mill) parameter value.
o If the value is inappropriate, change the value by referring to 8.4.2 Data
Preparation.
o If the value is appropriate, go to 3.
3. Check whether the UE is performing a service with a large traffic volume.
o If the UE is performing a service with a large traffic volume, it does not enter
DRX mode.
o If the UE is performing a service with a very small traffic volume (for
example, ping or VoIP), repeat 2 and then go to 4.
4. Run the LST CELLSTANDARDQCI command to query the DRX parameter group
IDs corresponding to the QCIs used by the UE.
5. Run the LST DRXPARAGROUP command to check the Enter DRX Switch
settings for the DRX parameter group IDs.
o If any Enter DRX Switch setting is Off, run the MOD DRXPARAGROUP
command to turn on the corresponding DRX switch or stop the ongoing
service on the corresponding bearer.
o If all the Enter DRX Switch settings are On, contact Huawei technical
support.

9 Engineering Guidelines for LOFD-


00110501 Dynamic DRX
This chapter provides guidelines for configuring LOFD-00110501 Dynamic DRX.

9.1 When to Use Dynamic DRX


Dynamic DRX is recommended in the following situations:

 Operators attach great importance to UE power saving.

In this scenario, you are advised to set a large difference between the value of the
RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx parameter and that of the
RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimerDynDrx parameter. This enables UEs to be in the
out-of-synchronization state for a longer time, thereby improving the power saving
performance. In addition, it is recommended that both the
CellDrxPara.FddEnterDrxThd and CellDrxPara.FddExitDrxThd parameters be
set to 1000 and the CellDrxPara.DrxInactivityTimerUnsync parameter be set to
200 ms so that UEs can save more power.

 Operators attach great importance to signaling reduction.


In this scenario, compare the total number of handovers in the network with the
number of E-RAB setups. Dynamic DRX is not recommended if the proportion of the
number of handovers in the network to the number of E-RAB setups is greater than
50%. If it is, the signaling storm is caused by handover-related signaling. If the ratio is
less than 50% and the number of E-RAB setups for a single user in peak hours is
greater than 200, dynamic DRX is recommended to reduce signaling overhead.

NOTE:

The value of RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx parameter may have UE


compatibility issues. In such a case, you are advised to contact Huawei technical support in
advance.

If the RrcConnStateTime r.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx parameter is set to a large value


(for example, 200s) on the eNodeB side, some UEs will be released and enter the idle mode
before the inactivity timer expires, which leads to service drops. To prevent such
incompatible UEs from affecting network performance, you can enable the LBFD-081103
Terminal Awareness Differentiation feature and add these UEs to a dynamic DRX blacklist.
For details about the operation, see Terminal Awareness Differentiation Feature Parameter
Description.

9.2 Required Information


The RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx parameter specifies the length of the
inactivity timer for UEs that support DRX, and the RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactiveTimer
parameter specifies the length of the inactivity timer for UEs that do not support DRX.

Before deploying dynamic DRX, collect information about the


RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactiveTimer and RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimer parameter
values. Assume that the values of the RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactiveTimer and
RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimer parameters are a and b, respectively.

Perform either of the following operations to ensure accurate KPIs:

 If operators do not use dynamic DRX to reduce signaling, perform the following
operations to avoid KPI fluctuations:
o Set the RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx parameter to the
value a.
o Set the RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimerDynDrx parameter to the value b.

If power saving is required, set the RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimerDynDrx


parameter to a value less than the value of the
RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx parameter. This configuration
does not increase the number of UEs in connected mode.

 If operators use dynamic DRX to reduce signaling, perform the following operations
to ensure KPI accuracy:
1. Set the RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimerDynDrx and
RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimer parameters to the value a.
2. Set the RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx and
RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactiveTimer parameters to a value greater than
the value a. Set the RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx and
RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactiveTimer parameters to the same value.

After these operations are complete, the values of


RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx and
RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactiveTimer are greater than the value a and the number
of UEs in connected mode increases.

Assume that the value of RrcConnStateTime r.UeInactiveTimer is 20s. Then, set


the RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx and
RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactiveTimer parameters to 200s; set the
RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimerDynDrx and
RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimer parameters to 20s. After the setting, the value of
RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx is greater than the value of
RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimerDynDrx.

To evaluate the impact of an adjustment to the RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactiveTimer or


RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx parameter,

Set the RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactiveTimer parameter to a large value V (for example,


200s) and collect the values of the following performance counters:

 L.Traffic.PktInterval.Num.Index0
 L.Traffic.PktInterval.Num.Index1
 L.Traffic.PktInterval.Num.Index2
 L.Traffic.PktInterval.Num.Index3
 L.Traffic.PktInterval.Num.Index4
 L.Traffic.PktInterval.Num.Index5
 L.Traffic.PktInterval.Num.Index6
 L.Traffic.PktInterval.Num.Index7
 L.Traffic.PktInterval.Num.Index8

Then, adjust the RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactiveTimer or


RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx parameter value ranging from 0 to V,
and observe the changes in signaling.

To evaluate the impact of an adjustment to the RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimer or


RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimerDynDrx parameter, collect the statistics on out-of-
synchronization durations. Longer durations indicate more effective adjustments and will
save more power after dynamic DRX is enabled. To collect the statistics, monitor the
following performance counters:

 L.User.UL.Unsync.Dur.Index0
 L.User.UL.Unsync.Dur.Index1
 L.User.UL.Unsync.Dur.Index2
 L.User.UL.Unsync.Dur.Index3
 L.User.UL.Unsync.Dur.Index4
 L.User.UL.Unsync.Dur.Index5
 L.User.UL.Unsync.Dur.Index6
 L.User.UL.Unsync.Dur.Index7
 L.User.UL.Unsync.Dur.Index8

9.3 Planning
RF Planning

To reduce signaling bursts caused by frequent access and release on live networks without
coverage problems (for example, without ping-pong handovers), dynamic DRX prolongs the
time UEs stay in connected mode. The networks must meet the following coverage
requirements:

 No coverage holes.
 No overshoot coverage.
 No pilot pollution.
 No path loss imbalance between uplink and downlink.

9.4.2 Data Preparation

This section describes the data that you need to collect for setting parameters. Required data
is data that you must collect for all scenarios. Collect scenario-specific data when necessary
for a specific feature deployment scenario.

There are three types of data sources:

 Network plan (negotiation not required): parameter values planned and set by the
operator
 Network plan (negotiation required): parameter values planned by the operator and
negotiated with the EPC or peer transmission equipment
 User-defined: parameter values set by users

Required Data

N/A

Scenario-specific Data

NOTE:

Before deploying dynamic DRX, collect the values of the


RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactiveTimer and RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimer
parameters. Assume that the values of the RrcConnStateTime r.UeInactiveTimer and
RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimer parameters are a and b, respectively.

Perform either of the following operations to ensure KPI accuracy:

 If operators do not use dynamic DRX to reduce signaling, perform the following
operations to avoid KPI fluctuations:

Set the RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx parameter to a.

Set the RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimerDynDrx parameter to b.

If power saving is required, set the RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimerDynDrx


parameter to a value less than the value of the
RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx parameter. This configuration
does not increase the number of UEs in connected mode.

 If operators use dynamic DRX to reduce signaling, perform the following operations
to ensure KPI accuracy:
Set the RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimerDynDrx and
RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimer parameters to the value a.

Set the RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx and


RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactiveTimer parameters to a value greater than a, and
ensure that the values of the two parameters are the same.

After these operations are complete, the values of the


RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx and
RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactiveTimer parameters are greater than a and the
number of UEs in connected mode increases.

After the RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx parameter is set to a larger


value, you are advised to use new methods to ensure KPI accuracy and collect information
about KPI changes before deploying dynamic DRX. Setting
RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx to a larger value has the following
impact:

 The total number of E-RAB releases decreases, while the number of abnormal E-RAB
releases changes slightly. The number of decreased E-RAB releases converts into the
number of E-RABs in UE contexts when the UEs switch from the uplink
synchronization state to the uplink out-of-synchronization state. In this situation, use
the following new method to calculate the service drop rate:

Add the value of the L.E-RAB.Num.Syn2Unsyn counter to the denominator and


subtract the value of the L.E-RAB.Release.Unsyn counter from the denominator. The
formula is as follows:

Service drop rate (%) = L.E-RAB.AbnormRel/(L.E-RAB.AbnormRel + L.E-


RAB.NormRel + L.E-RAB.Num.Syn2Unsyn - L.E-RAB.Release.Unsyn)

 The number of RRC connection setups decreases significantly. In some scenarios (for
example, weak coverage scenarios), the number of failed RRC connection setups does
not decrease proportionally. The number of decreased RRC connection setups
converts into the number of times UEs switch from the out-of-synchronization state to
the synchronization state. In this situation, use the following new method to calculate
the success rate of RRC connection setups for services:

Add the value of the L.RRC.StateTrans.Unsyn2Syn.Succ counter to the numerator,


and add the value of the L.RRC.StateTrans.Unsyn2Syn counter to the denominator.
The formula is as follows:

Service RRC connection setup success rate (%) = (L.RRC.ConnReq.Succ.Mt +


L.RRC.ConnReq. Succ.MoData + L.RRC.ConnReq.Succ.EMC +
L.RRC.ConnReq.Succ.HighPri + L.RRC.ConnReq.Succ.DelayTol +
L.RRC.StateTrans.Unsyn2Syn.Succ)/(L.RRC.ConnReq.Att.Mt +
L.RRC.ConnReq.Att.MoData + L.RRC.ConnReq.Att.EMC +
L.RRC.ConnReq.Att.HighPri + L.RRC.ConnReq.Att.DelayTol +
L.RRC.StateTrans.Unsyn2Syn)
 The number of E-RAB setups decreases significantly. In some scenarios (for example,
weak coverage scenarios), the number of failed E-RAB setups does not decrease
proportionately. The number of decreased E-RAB setups converts into the number of
times UEs switch from the out-of-synchronization state to the synchronization state.
In this situation, use the following new method to calculate the E-RAB setup success
rate:

Add the value of the L.E-RAB.StateTrans.Unsyn2Syn.Succ counter to the


numerator, and add the value of the L.E-RAB.StateTrans.Unsyn2Syn.Att counter to
the denominator. The formula is as follows:

E-RAB setup success rate (%) = (L.E-RAB.SuccEst + L.E-


RAB.StateTrans.Unsyn2Syn.Succ)/(L.E-RAB.AttEst + L.E-
RAB.StateTrans.Unsyn2Syn.Att)

The following table describes the parameter that must be set in the CellAlgoSwitch MO to

the RRC connection for this UE. If
this parameter is set to a large
value, the amount of signaling is
reduced but UE power
consumption increases.

 When UE power saving is


required, use the default
value for this parameter.
 You are advised to
increase the value of this
parameter if signaling

RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivi
tyTimerDynDrx parameter. In
power saving mode, the difference
between the values of this
parameter and the

should be large, for example 10s,
to avoid power consumption
increasing due to the increase in

NOTE:

For more information regarding UE compatibility issues, see 9.5.1 Performance Monitoring.

9.4.3 Precautions

When dynamic DRX is enabled, DRX for the synchronization state takes effect. The
CellDrxPara.FddEnterDrxThd and CellDrxPara.FddExitDrxThd parameters should be
set to 1000 to reduce signaling exchange over the air interface. When these parameters are set
to 1000, the eNodeB directly instructs the UE to enter or exit DRX mode, without
considering the measured traffic volume.

To prevent UE compatibility issues, when dynamic DRX is enabled, you are advised to set
DRX parameters for all bearers on the live network, including bearers with QCIs 2, 3, and 7.

 If bearers with QCI 2 or 3 exist on the live network without setting the DRX
parameters, you can run the following command to set the DRX parameters for QCI 2
or 3:

DrxParaGroup.LongDrxCycle=sf10,DrxParaGroup.OnDurationTimer=psf8,
DrxParaGroup.DrxInactivityTimer=psf10

 If bearers with QCI 7 exist on the live network, different DRX parameter groups can
be used for the bearers based on the QCI definitions of operators when dynamic DRX
is enabled. For example, bind QCI 7 to DRX parameter group 2 or 3 by running the
MOD CELLSTANDARDQCI command.

MO are displayed in area 4.
5. Set the parameters in area 4 or 5.
6. Choose CME > Planned Area > Export Incremental Scripts (U2000 client mode),
or choose Area Management > Planned Area > Export Incremental Scripts (CME
client mode), to export and activate the incremental scripts.

9.4.5.4 Using MML Commands

MML Command

1. Run the LST RRCCONNSTATETIMER command to query the


RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactiveTimer parameter value (denoted by a) and
RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimer parameter value (denoted by b) parameters.

LST RRCCONNSTATETIMER:;

2. If operators do not use dynamic DRX to reduce signaling, perform the following
operations to avoid KPI fluctuations:
o Set the RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx parameter to the
value a.
o Set the RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimerDynDrx parameter to the value b.
To save more power, ensure that the value of
RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimerDynDrx is less than the value of
RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx and the difference between the
two values is large enough. This configuration does not increase the number of UEs in
connected mode.

MOD RRCCONNSTATETIMER:UeInactivityTimerDynDrx= 35,UlSynTimerDynDrx


=10;

3. If operators use dynamic DRX to reduce signaling, perform the following operations
to ensure KPI accuracy:
a. Set the RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimerDynDrx and
RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimer parameters to the value a.
b. Set the RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx and
RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactiveTimer parameters to the same value that is
greater than the value a.

After these operations are complete, the values of


RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx and
RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactiveTimer are greater than the value a and the number
of UEs in connected mode increases.

MOD
RRCCONNSTATETIMER:UeInactivityTimerDynDrx=200,UeInactiveTimer=200,UlS
ynTimerDynDrx =20,UlSynTimer =20;

4. After 3 is performed, if the KPI deteriorates, use the new formula to calculate the
service drop rate, as described in 9.4.2 Data Preparation. If the KPI does not
deteriorate, proceed to the next step.
5. Run the MOD CELLDRXPARA command to configure DRX parameters in the out-
of-synchronization state. To save more power, it is recommended that the

set to 1000 and that the CellDrxPara.DrxInactivityTimerUnsync parameter be set
to 200 ms. That way UEs do not enter or exit DRX mode in the synchronization state
based on the traffic statistics. The DRX parameters for the synchronization state
remain the same as those configured before dynamic DRX is enabled.

9.4.8.1 Using the CME to Perform Batch Configuration

Batch reconfiguration using the CME is the recommended method to deactivate a feature on
eNodeBs. This method reconfigures all data, except neighbor relationships, for multiple
eNodeBs in a single procedure. The procedure for feature deactivation is simila r to that for
feature activation described in 9.4.5.2 Using the CME to Perform Batch Configuration for
Existing eNodeBs. In the procedure, modify parameters according to Table 9-3.

MOD CELLALGOSWITCH:LocalCellId=0,DynDrxSwitch=DynDrxSwitch-0;

9.5 Maintenance
9.5.1 Performance Monitoring

After dynamic DRX is enabled, monitor the power or signaling saving effect.

 Monitoring the power saving effect

You can monitor the power saving effect in either of the following ways:

o Use special tools to directly monitor the power saving effect.


o Use counters to indirectly monitor the power saving effect.

If the difference between the parameters


RrcConnStateTimer.UeInactivityTimerDynDrx and
RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimerDynDrx is large, use the counters
L.Cdrx.Active.TtiNum and L.Cdrx.Sleep.TtiNum and consider the power
saving performance to determine the power saving effect.

For example, when the DRX cycle is 40 ms, the UE does not turn off its
receiver; when the DRX cycle is 1280 ms, the UE turns off its receiver in
certain conditions. The L.Cdrx.Sleep.TtiNum counter indicates that less than
7% power is saved but actually more than 20% power is saved after the DRX
cycle increases from 40 ms to 1280 ms, provided that the traffic model
remains unchanged.

 Monitoring the signaling reduction effect

NOTE:
If the value of RrcConnStateTime r.UlSynTimerDynDrx after dynamic DRX is
enabled is less than the value of RrcConnStateTimer.UlSynTimer before dynamic
DRX is enabled, the signaling saving effect decreases.

o Use the following counters to monitor the number of RRC connection setup
attempts in different scenarios and the changes in signaling overhead:

L.RRC.ConnReq.Att

L.RRC.ConnReq.Att.Emc,

L.RRC.ConnReq.Att.HighPri

L.RRC.ConnReq.Att.Mt

L.RRC.ConnReq.Att.MoSig

L.RRC.ConnReq.Att.MoData,

L.RRC.ConnReq.Att.DelayTol.

o Use the L.Paging.UU.Att counter to monitor changes in the number of UEs


paged on the Uu interface so as to indirectly monitor changes in signaling
overhead.
o Use the L.Signal.Num.Uu counter to directly monitor changes in signaling
overhead on the Uu interface.
o Use the following formula to calculate the total change in signaling overhead
on the S1 and Uu interfaces:

L.E-RAB.AttEst + (L.Signal.Num.DRX.Reconfig +
L.RRC.StateTrans.Syn2Unsyn) / 10

NOTE:

Signaling overhead for 10 RRC connection reconfigurations is equivalent to


that for one E-RAB establishment.

In reduced signaling mode, some UEs are considered to have compatibility issues if one of
the following conditions is met:

 The L.Signal.Num.DRX.Reconfig counter value increases sharply.


 The Uu interface trace result shows that two or more consecutive RRC connection
reconfigurations are performed each time a UE switches from the out-of-
synchronization state to the synchronization state. Each RRC connection
reconfiguration involves RRC Connection Reconfiguration and RRC Connection
Reconfiguration Complete messages.

Under these conditions, multiple RRC connection reconfigurations are performed each time
the UE switches from the out-of-synchronization state to the synchronization state. To avoid
an increase in abnormal signaling overhead caused by such a UE, you are advised to perform
the following operations:

1. Set the CellAccess.ReptSyncAvoidInd parameter to CFG(Configure) to prohibit


multiple successful synchronization procedures repeatedly initiated by such a UE
from triggering multiple RRC connection reconfigurations.
2. Set the CellAccess.ReptSyncAvoidTime parameter to specify the period during
which multiple successful synchronization procedures repeatedly initiated by such a
UE trigger only one RRC connection reconfiguration.

9.5.2 Parameter Optimization

This section describes the parameters that can be modified to improve dynamic DRX
performance.

The following table describes the UE control timer parameters that can be modified in the
RrcConnStateTimer MO to adjust the balance between power saving and reduced signaling.

10 Engineering Guidelines for LOFD-


00110502 High-Mobility-Triggered Idle
Mode
This chapter provides guidelines for configuring LOFD-00110502 High-Mobility- Triggered
Idle Mode.

10.1 When to Use High-Mobility-Triggered Idle Mode


When dynamic DRX is enabled or the UE inactivity timer is set to a large value, the number
of handovers of UEs moving at high speeds increases significantly as does the amount of
signaling. In this situation, it is recommended that LOFD-00110502 High-Mobility-Triggered
Idle Mode be enabled to prevent signaling bursts caused by frequent handovers.

10.2 Required Information


You must obtain the following information:

 EARFCNs, coverage, and configurations of E-UTRAN cells


 eNodeB's capability to support LOFD-00110502 High-Mobility-Triggered Idle Mode
 Handover frequency and online duration of existing UEs, which help determine
whether this feature needs to be deployed

10.3 Planning
RF Planning

On live networks with no coverage problems, the high-mobility-triggered idle mode feature
prevents signaling bursts by reducing the handover frequency for high-mobility UEs.
Therefore, the networks must meet the following coverage requirements:

 No coverage holes.
 No overshoot coverage.
 No pilot pollution.
 No path loss imbalance between uplink and downlink.

Related Features

It is recommended that you enable LOFD-00110501 Dynamic DRX before enabling LOFD-
00110502 High-Mobility- Triggered Idle Mode.

10.4.2 Data Preparation

This section describes the data that you need to collect for setting parameters. Required data
is data that you must collect for all scenarios. Collect scenario-specific data when necessary
for a specific feature deployment scenario.

There are three types of data sources:

 Network plan (negotiation required): parameter values planned by the operator and
negotiated with the EPC or peer transmission equipment
 Network plan (negotiation not required): parameter values planned and set by the
operator
 User-defined: parameter values set by users

TDLBF (DRX) mode in a cell that
LST D- operates in FDD mode. This
CELLDRX 002017 threshold is used in the DRX
PARA algorithm. It is expressed as a
proportion of the transmission
time intervals (TTIs) with data
transmission to the total TTIs.
If the measurement result of
UE traffic is equal to or lower
than this threshold, the
eNodeB determines that the
UE should remain in DRX
mode or the UE should be
triggered to enter DRX mode.
If both the values of the
FddExitDrxThd and
FddEnterDrxThd parameters
are small and close to each
other, the UE frequently enters

When both the
FddEnterDrxThd parameter

directly determines that the UE
should enter or exit the DRX

If the measurement result of

configured value. In addition,
the configured value will be
rounded down to an integral
multiple of 10. Therefore, you
are advised to configure this
parameter to a value that is an
integral multiple of 10. If users
hope that the value actually
assigned to a UE is equal to or
greater than 80 ms, set the
TimeAlignmentTimer
parameter to a value equal to
or greater than 10240 ms. If
the TimingAdvCmdOptSwitch
parameter is set to ON, it is
recommended that the
LongDrxCycleSpecial
parameter be set to a value
smaller than or equal to 320
ms. Otherwise, the uplink time
alignment performance of UEs
is affected. If the
TimingAdvCmdOptSwitch
parameter is set to ON, it is
recommended that the
TimeAlignmentTimer
parameter be set to sf10240. A
smaller value of the
TimeAlignmentTimer
parameter, such as sf5120,
increases the probability that
UEs in DRX mode become
uplink asynchronized.

PUSCH DTX detection result,
the eNodeB determines
whether to perform adaptive
retransmission during UL
scheduling and also adjusts the
control channel element (CCE)
aggregation level of the
physical downlink control
channel (PDCCH) carrying
downlink control information
(DCI) format 0. If an FDD cell
MO Parameter MML Feature Feature Description

reaches the maximum value
but the scheduling still fails. If
this switch is on, uplink re-
scheduling is performed only
when the On Duration timer
for the DRX long cycle starts.
If this switch is off, uplink re-
scheduling is performed
immediately when the number
of HARQ retransmissions for
SR reaches the maximum
value but the scheduling still
fails. It is recommended that
the switch be turned on in live
networks.

SchedulerCtrlPowerSwitch:
Indicates whether the uplink
scheduler performs scheduling
without considering power
control restrictions. If this
switch is on, the uplink

low-mobility UE based on the
Doppler measurement in the
physical layer, and then
improves uplink frequency
selective scheduling
performance for low-mobility
UEs. If this switch is off,
enhanced uplink scheduling
based on mobility speed is
disabled. This switch takes
effect only when the
UlEnhancedDopplerSwitch
parameter is set to CLASS_1.
This switch does not take
effect on cells established on
an LBBPc.

scheduling priority of UEs
sending uplink access
signaling.

UlLast2RetransSchOptSwitch:
Indicates whether to enable
optimization on the scheduling
policy for the last two
retransmissions. If this switch
is on, optimization on the
scheduling policy for the last
two retransmissions is enabled.
If the UE transmit power is not
limited, adaptive
retransmission is used and the
number of RBs increases in
the last two retransmissions to
increase the receive success
rate of the last two
retransmissions and decrease
uplink RBLER. If this switch
is off, optimization on the
scheduling policy for the last
two retransmissions is
disabled. This switch does not
apply to LTE TDD cells.

neither. If this parameter is set
to OFF, then DrxStartOffset
takes the value of SrsOffset,
CqiOffset, or 0 when a UE is
