Channel Concept

WCDMA is separted on 3 main channel: Logical, Transport and

Physical Channel
FACH Channel and Paging channel which located on Transport channel
is multiplexed together on the same Physical Channel. This channel is
called Secondary Common Control Physical Channel(S-CCPCH)

FACH Congestion

RAB AbnormalRelPS. RF.UuNo Reply increased

when Data Fach Congestion is increased.
From the performance, we can conclude the
FACH channel is not congested. But the FACH
data are not scheduled successfully
So we need instigated more, why FACH
congestion is occurred, otherwise FACH Band
with usagerate is too low

FACH Congestion
FACH Channel data schedule
The FACH channel data schedule
On the downlink, the MAC will schedule the
Sccpch data as follow:
Firstly, the PCH data will be scheduled
on the highest PRI;
Secondly, the FACH channel which is
used to transfer the signaling will be
scheduled;
and last, the FACH channel which is
used to transfer the data will be
scheduled.
So, if the FACH data are cant be
scheduled, the reason may be:
there are so many FACH data so that
the FACH channel is congesting;
There are so many FACH signaling and
PCH data so that the FACH data cant
be scheduled timely.
Because of FACH and PCH is multiplexed
together on SCCPCH, so we need to add
SCCPCH on Physical Channel to separed
FACH data and FACH Signaling +PCH.

Problem: The main problem is FACH congestion which casue high PS drops, so the target is release
FACH congestion aiming to improve Ps drops by adding 2nd S-CCPCH
S-CCPCH: Carry FACH & PCH

Cause analysis: A cell is configured with one S-CCPCH by default.

The S-CCPCH carries one PCH, one FACH #0 that carries signaling, and one FACH #1 that carries
service data.
If two SCCPCHs are used, the first SCCPCH always carries only PCH, and the second SCCPCH
always carries FACH#0 and FACH#1, so we doubled the FACH BW

Action: Add Second SCCPCH

Parameter

. Based on the product

specifications, it is
recommended that the CCPCHs
in a cell be identified as follows:
1)The ID of the PSCH is 0.
2)The ID of the SSCH is 1.
3)The ID of the PCPICH is 2.
4)The ID of the PCCPCH is 3.
5)The ID of the PRACH #1 is 4.
The ID of the corresponding
AICH is 6.
6)The ID of the SCCPCH #1 is 8.
The ID of the corresponding
PICH is 10.
7)The ID of the SCCPCH #2 is 9.
