HSUPA coverage requirements: throughput at the cell edge
Purpose of HSUPA link budget: to calculate the coverage rate at the
cell edge or the available coverage radius of HSUPA under a certain
bearing rate.
HSUPA link budget is based on the emulation results: The
emulation results indicate the relationship between HSUPA Ec/No and
throughput.

The requirements on different continuous coverage services differ in
different scenarios.
Calculate the cell radius according to such requirements as
coverage services and quality target.
The calculation focuses on uplink coverage.

Power rollback is not considered for R99 UEs.
Transmitting power rollback of HSUPA UE is relatively significant.
After HSUPA is introduced, there are more uplink channels: DPCCH, DPDCH,
E-DPDCH, E-DPCCH and HS-DPCCH. The Peak-to-Average Ratio (PAR)
rises to cause UE transmit power to back off.
When the HSUPA rate is low and DPCCH, DPDCH, E-DPDCH, HS-DPCCH
and E-DPDCH all exist, the PAR is rather high and the power rollback is
significant.
When the HSUPA rate is high, HSUPA adopts the physical channel codes
among {2SF4, 2SF2, 2SF2+2SF4}, and DPCCH, DPDCH, E-DPDCH, HS-
DPCCH and E-DPDCH all exist, the PAR is low and the power rollback is
insignificant.

Between HSUPA and R99 (2/5)
Even higher uplink load in HSUPA
Fast Node B scheduling can effectively
suppress the rise of uplink interference, that is, it
can more precisely control uplink interference.
Thus, HSUPA uplink can operate under a higher
load.
The simulation results of N company show that
the average uplink ROT supported by the
HSUPA system is 1 dB higher than the original
R99 (4 dB) under the same overload condition
(ROT > 6 dB). Therefore, HSUPA can operate
under a higher target load.

Difference in Link Budget
Between HSUPA and R99 (3/5)
There is a high soft handover gain in R99.
HSUPA adopts HARQ, which brings time diversity gain. Thus,
the gain produced in soft handover is relatively low in HSUPA.
Difference in Link Budget
Between HSUPA and R99 (4/5)
R99 requires a big fast fading margin
Fast power control is used mainly to compensate fast fading.
HSUPA requires a small fast fading margin.
E-DPDCH adopts the HARQ mechanism, which brings time
diversity gain.
Power control is used to adjust the rate instead of compensating
fast fading.
Example: For channel PA3, the rate of PS services is 64 kbit/s. The fast fading
margin is 2.1 dB in R99 while that is 1.2 dB in HSUPA.

R99 capacity dimensioning uses KR+BE algorithms.
HSUPA capacity dimensioning algorithm is similar to that of
HSDPA and uses integral calculation.
Uplink target load setting
When the original R99 network has good coverage: The total uplink
load may be appropriately increased.
When the original R99 network has poor coverage: The total uplink load
shall keep unchanged.

Factors Influencing the HSUPA
Uplink CE Number
The number of CEs occupied in the HSUPA uplink may be affected by
the following factors:
HARQ: It employs fast retransmission in the physical layer. The more the
retransmission times, the more the occupied CEs. The improvement of demodulation
performance enables the cell capacity to be enlarged and enables the system to
support more HSUPA users. The more the users, the more the occupied CEs.
Coding efficiency: For the lower coding efficiency, the higher physical channel
codes are needed to send a transport block of the same size and the more CEs are
occupied.
Soft handover: In the soft handover area, the UE has established links with multiple
cells and occupies several times CE resources.
DCH associated channel (uplink/downlink): HSUPA needs associated DCHs.
One associated DCH occupies one CE.
Number of concurrent HSUPA users: The more HSUPA users are simultaneously
connected, the more CE resources are occupied.
HSUPA mean throughput: After HSUPA is introduced, the mean throughput is
enlarged and so more CEs are occupied.
HSUPA CE Dimensioning Uplink (1/3)
CEs occupied by DCH associated channels:
Every associated channel occupies one CE.
The method of estimating the CEs occupied by associated channels is similar to
that of HSDPA.
HSUPA can share CE resources with R99.
DCH associated channels, the new E-DPCCH and E-DPDCH
introduced into HSUPA all occupy CEs.
E-DPCCH bears the demodulation associated signaling.
E-DPDCH bears uplink service data.
DCH transports control information.

HSUPA CE Dimensioning Uplink (2/3)
For non-scheduling grant services
The transmission rate is usually constant and so is the number of occupied CEs. The
dimensioning method of R99 may be used to make the calculation.
For HSUPA scheduling grant services
The transmission rate is variable and the number of occupied CEs also keeps changing. The
following formula may be used for the calculation:
m
BLER - 1

b) (1 SHO%) (1 N Nce

+ +
+
+ + =

N
Nce: Total CEs occupied in the HSUPA uplink
N: Number of concurrent HSUPA users
SHO%: Soft handover proportion
b: Burst margin
BLER: RLC layer block error rate, corresponding to
the service layer QoS index
M: CEs occupied by physical channel codes (or
code combinations), as shown in the table
on next page.
The number of users of HSUPA associated channels shall satisfy 1 <= N <= 20.
For a system configured with both HSUPA and HSDPA, the number of CEs occupied by
DCH associated channels shall be the greater of the number of CEs occupied by
HSDPA associated channels and that occupied by HSUPA associated channels.
HSUPA CE Dimensioning Uplink (3/3)
The requested bearing rate can be calculated according to the requested
mean rate (R) and the total number of retransmissions (determined by
SBLER), and is then mapped to m as shown in the following table:
HSUPA CE Dimensioning Downlink
AGCH, RGCH and HICH are added in the HSUPA downlink:
Channel Type Occupy CE Description

Downlink common
channel AGCH
No
At present, the three channels are separately
processed and so they do not occupy the CE
resources of R99 services.
Downlink dedicated
channel RGCH
No
Downlink dedicated
channel HICH
No
HSUPA downlink
associated channel
Yes
Considering that usually HSDPA is adopted in the
downlink when the UE adopts HSUPA in the uplink,
the number of CEs occupied by DCH associated
channels shall be the greater of the number of CEs
occupied by HSDPA associated channels and that
occupied by HSUPA associated channels.
Difference in CE Dimensioning Between
HSUPA and R99
Dimensioning method
R99: The uplink CE dimensioning method is the same as that of the downlink.
HSUPA: The uplink CE dimensioning method is different from that of the
downlink.
Data and signaling
The data transmitted on R99 DCH contain signaling and so it is unnecessary to
separately calculate the occupied CE resources.
In HSUPA, it is necessary to separately calculate the occupied CE resources.
The DCH bears signaling. The E-DPDCH bears uplink service data and is
equivalent to the HS-PDSCH in HSDPA, and the E-DPCCH bears demodulation
associated signaling and is equivalent to the HS-SCCH in HSDPA.
CEs occupied by the corresponding transmission rate
R99 adopts the equivalent CE number. Different bearing rates correspond to
different numbers of occupied CEs.
The HSUPA transmission rate is variable and so is the coding efficiency. Different
physical channel coding schemes occupy different average numbers of CEs.

Factors Affecting HSUPA Uplink
Lub Dimensioning
Compared with R99/HSDPA, HSUPA Iub dimensioning shall consider
the following factors:
Compared with HSDPA, HSUPA shall consider soft handover overheads.
Compared with R99/HSDPA, HSUPA shall consider changes of the E-DCH
FP frame bearer.
HSUPA FP overheads

64 87%
128 91%
384 94%
480 94%
(1 + Data service burst margin)
(1 + Soft handover overheads)
HSUPA Lub Dimensioning Uplink
The Iub bandwidth of HSUPA should
consider the service data on HSUPA
channels and the signaling on
associated channels, as shown by
the calculation formula on the right.
After HSUPA is introduced, no new
control frame is added and the old
calculation method is still used. It is
necessary to consider the number of
HSUPA associated channels.
Similar to HSDPA, HSUPA common
measurement information will be
added after HSUPA is introduced.
The NCP traffic needs to further
increase and possibly the NCP
bandwidth needs to be increased,
which shall depend on the specific
product implementation.
After HSUPA is introduced, the uplink
Iub bandwidth
= ( Number of cell HSUPA users
HSUPA busy-hour throughput per
user
/ 3600
/ FP data frame utilization of HSUPA
/ Data packet AAL2 utilization
/ ATM utilization
/ E1 utilization
+ 3.4 kbps
Number of concurrent HSUPA users
3.4k associated signaling activation
ratio
/ FP data frame utilization of 3.4k
associated signaling
/ Signaling packet AAL2 utilization
/ ATM utilization
/ E1 utilization)



HSUPA Lub Dimensioning Downlink
After HSUPA is introduced, the increased downlink Iub bandwidth =
Number of cell HSUPA users x Busy-hour HSUPA throughput per
user 2.5% / 3600 / FP data frame utilization of HSDPA / Data packet
AAL2 utilization / ATM utilization / E1 utilization (1 + Data service
burst margin) (1 + Soft handover overheads)
After HSUPA is introduced, AGCH, RGCH and HICH are added in the
downlink. They are physical channels and do not occupy Iub bandwidth.
Because it is necessary to feedback the TCP acknowledgement packet and
RLC layer state packet in the downlink during uplink data transmission, we
should consider the traffic of the two when the traffic of HSUPA is huge.
The traffic of TCP acknowledgement packets and RLC layer state packets
is about 2% to 3% of HSUPA traffic. We may estimate it by 2.5%.

channel traffic dimensioning
and common channel traffic

The traffic channel traffic
dimensioning method is similar
to the capacity dimensioning
method, that is, it uses KR+BE.

the original R99 algorithms.
