Short TTI (FDD) Feature Parameter Description 3 Overview
3 Overview
LTE networks have evolved, and millisecond-level end-to-end (E2E) service latency is now
possible. New services, such as Ultra-Reliable and Low-Latency Communication (URLLC)
services, require a lower latency. To meet the latency requirements of these services, short
transmission time interval (TTI) has been introduced as a key technology to guarantee a low
latency on LTE networks.

eRAN
Short TTI (FDD) Feature Parameter Description 4 Short TTI
4 Short TTI
4.1 Principles
In a conventional LTE system, 1 ms subframes are transmitted over the air interface. When
normal cyclic prefixes (CPs) are used, each subframe contains 14 orthogonal frequency
division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols. With short TTI, a 1-ms subframe can be subdivided
into shorter TTI lengths. It can be shortened to just two or three symbols. This decreases the
latency over the air interface and the total E2E latency. There are two structures (as shown in
Figure 4-1 and Figure 4-2) for downlink short TTI subframes and one structure (as shown in
Figure 4-3) for uplink short TTI subframes.
Figure 4-1 Downlink short TTI subframe structure 1
Figure 4-2 Downlink short TTI subframe structure 2
Figure 4-3 Uplink short TTI subframe structure
In the preceding structures, os stands for an OFDM symbol, and sTTI stands for a subslot
TTI. A normal 1-ms TTI is also called an nTTI.

eRAN
Which downlink subframe structure is used depends on the index of the start symbol of the
first Subslot PDSCH (sPDSCH). Table 4-1 lists which structure is used for each index.

subframe structure

Workflow of short TTI

Short TTI enables OFDM-symbol-level data transmission. New physical channels are
introduced, including Short PDCCH (sPDCCH), Short PUCCH (sPUCCH), sPDSCH, and
Subslot PUSCH (sPUSCH). The eNodeB supports mixed scheduling of short TTI and normal
TTI UEs. The scheduled UEs can also dynamically switch between short TTI and normal TTI
modes. Figure 4-4 shows the procedure for short TTI scheduling.
Figure 4-4 Procedure for short TTI scheduling

eRAN
1. The eNodeB checks whether the short TTI switch (controlled by the SHORT_TTI_SW
option of the CellShortTtiAlgo.SttiAlgoSwitch parameter) is turned on.
a. If it is turned on, the eNodeB proceeds with 2.
b. If it is not turned on, the eNodeB schedules the UE in normal TTI mode.
2. The eNodeB determines whether the UE to be scheduled supports short TTI.
a. If it supports short TTI, the eNodeB proceeds with 3. For details about the
requirements for UE capabilities, see 4.3.4 Others.
b. If it does not support short TTI, the eNodeB schedules the UE in normal TTI mode.
3. The eNodeB checks whether the UE meets the conditions for entering the short TTI
scheduling.
a. If all of the following conditions are met, the eNodeB proceeds with 4:
n The uplink signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) of the UE is higher
than the value of the CellShortTtiAlgo.SttiEntryUlSinrThld parameter.
n A bearer with a QCI whose CellQciPara.LowLatencyFlag parameter is
TRUE has been set up for the UE.
n The uplink resource block (RB) usage of the cell that serves the UE does not
exceed the value of the CellShortTtiAlgo.SttiEntryUlRbUsageThld
parameter.
n The downlink RB usage of the cell that serves the UE does not exceed the
value of the CellShortTtiAlgo.SttiEntryDlRbUsageThld parameter.
b. If any of the preceding conditions is not met, the eNodeB schedules the UE in
normal TTI mode.
4. The eNodeB schedules the UE in short TTI mode.
RBs Available for Short TTI

The number of RBs available for short TTI can be dynamically adjusted or statically
configured, depending on the setting of the CellShortTtiAlgo.NttiSttiRbAdjStrategy
parameter.
l If this parameter is set to DYNAMIC, the maximum number of RBs available for short
TTI is dynamically adjusted by the eNodeB.
l If this parameter is set to STATIC:
– For uplink scheduling, the number of uplink short resource block groups (sRBGs)
reserved for UEs scheduled in short TTI mode is specified by the
CellShortTtiAlgo.UlSrbgCntReservedForStti parameter. These reserved resources
cannot be used for uplink scheduling for UEs in normal TTI mode. No additional
resources can be used for uplink scheduling for UEs in short TTI mode.
– For downlink scheduling, the number of downlink sRBGs reserved for UEs
scheduled in short TTI mode is specified by the
CellShortTtiAlgo.DlSrbgCntReservedForStti parameter. These reserved resources
cannot be used for downlink scheduling for UEs in normal TTI mode. No additional
resources can be used for downlink scheduling for UEs in short TTI mode.
Preallocation in Short TTI Mode

Preallocation can be performed for UEs scheduled in short TTI mode. Uplink preallocation
for UEs scheduled in short TTI mode is enabled when the

eRAN
SHORT_TTI_PREALLOCATION_SW option of the CellShortTtiAlgo.SttiAlgoSwitch

parameter is selected and the CellShortTtiAlgo.SttiPreallocationDuration parameter is set to
a value greater than 0. In this case:
l The preallocation interval is specified by the
CellShortTtiAlgo.SttiPreallocationMinPeriod parameter.
l The duration of each preallocation is specified by the
CellShortTtiAlgo.SttiPreallocationDuration parameter.
l The size of data in each preallocation is specified by the
CellShortTtiAlgo.SttiPreallocationSize parameter.
sPDCCH Resource Configuration

The resources occupied by the sPDCCH depend on the value of the
CellShortTtiAlgo.SpdcchRbCnt parameter. A larger parameter value indicates more
resources and a larger maximum aggregation level available to the sPDCCH and a larger
coverage of the sPDCCH. No sPDCCH resources are available for subframe 0 in short TTI
mode. In subframe 0, control channel elements (CCEs) must be reserved for the PDCCH. The
upper limit of the reserved CCEs is specified by the
CellShortTtiAlgo.PdcchCceCntReservedForStti parameter.
sPDCCH Boundary Power Control

An sPDCCH boundary power control function can be enabled to ensure the coverage of the
sPDCCH. This function is controlled by the SPDCCH_BOUNDARY_POWER_CTRL_SW
option of the CellShortTtiAlgo.SttiAlgoSwitch parameter. If this option is selected, power
can be increased (assuming there is sufficient power available) to hold the sPDCCH bit error
rate under control when the maximum aggregation level is in use.
4.2 Network Analysis
4.2.1 Benefits
UEs performing small-packet services (such as online gaming or web browsing) enjoy a lower
air interface latency and accordingly a lower E2E latency in short TTI mode than in normal
TTI mode.
4.2.2 Impacts
Network Impacts
Short TTI has the following impacts on the network:
l The Cell Uplink Average Throughput may decrease slightly. This is because short TTI
increases the header overhead of transport blocks, uplink demodulation reference signal
(DMRS) overhead, and symbol-level interference to neighboring cells.
l The Cell Downlink Average Throughput may decrease slightly. This is because short
TTI increases the header overhead of transport blocks, and the sPDCCH occupies a large
number of downlink resources.

eRAN
l The downlink peak throughput of the short TTI UEs decreases. This is because the
eNodeB selects a low code rate during transport block size (TBS) index selection in short
TTI mode.
