Allocation of F-DPCH Slot Format 1/2

3GPP Release 7 allows the F-DPCH slot format to be different for each radio link within the active set

Different slot formats change response time to TPC commands:

Slot formats 0 and 9 are prioritized because they reduce the TPC command response time

TPC response time increased by 1 time slot when using slot formats 1 to 8

Feature Description
RAN1644 - CPC

CPC is optional feature for 3GPP Rel7 UEs and CPC capability is signaled by the UE to RNC in RRC
connection setup
CPC can be configured for all existing services mapped to HSDPA and HSUPA, whenever no DCH is
configured
CPC makes Cell_DCH state more affordable from radio interface capacity point of view for low activity and
non-continuous transmission.
Better user experience can be offered to CPC capable UEs by keeping them longer in cell_DCH state In case
of interactive and background traffic.
Rel-6 UEs in Cell_DCH state maintain continuous transmission of uplink dedicated control channel (DPCCH)
even when no actual uplink data is transmitted.
Rel-7 UL DTX allows UE to turn off transmitter if there is no uplink HSUPA data and no uplink control data for
HSDPA
