The main interest is on the monitoring of available DL power for HSDPA and also how much of
this power is actually used. The available power can be measured based on the
M1000C138_AVG_NON_HSDPA_PWR counter or Average DL Load RNC_102b KPI. The
HSDPA power utilisation can be measured as ratio of average HSDPA power
AVE_HSPA_DL_POWER and average available HSDPA power.

Low level of available HSDPA power will have an effect on the peak data rates in the cell.
HSDPA cell throughput limitation can be detected when the power utilisation increases.

Figure 96. DL power sharing analysis.

HSDPA power counters show average or maximum during measurement period. Increase R99
traffic decrease the HSDPA power as they share the same resource. However, average HSDPA
power can low due the low utilisation (low HSDPA activity) as can be seen in Figure 97 below. It
is feasible to monitor cells with high HSDPA activity (50-60%) but low HSDPA power.

Figure 97. Average HSDPA power vs. HSDPA Utilisation

Below is one example of HSDPA power compared to Average DL/UL load. With Dynamic power
allocation / resource allocation it is possible to use all left over power for HSDPA. HSDPA power
