Note:
 Maybe some tradeoff considerations need to be considered to assure
 the maximal improvement in the whole view such as “coverage and
 capacity”,“ fast and stable”, “improvement and risk”, “cost (or efforts)
 and gain”.

Mobile Management Parameter Optimization


   Cell Selection & Reselection
The changing of cell on which UE camped in idle mode or in Cell FACH, Cell
    PCH, URA PCH states. That assures UE camping the most suitable cell,
    receiving system information and establishing an RRC connection on a best
    serving cell.
   Handover
The changing of cells with which UE connected in DCH mode.
That assures seamless coverage and load balancing.

Cell Selection Criteria (S Criteria)


The cell selection criterion S is fulfilled when:

  for FDD cells:             Srxlev > 0 AND Squal > 0

  for TDD cells:             Srxlev > 0


  Where:


  Squal = Qqualmeas – Qqualmin

  Srxlev = Qrxlevmeas - Qrxlevmin - Pcompensation


 When a UE wants to select a UMTS cell, the cell must satisfy S criterion.
Cell Selection Parameters
Cell Re-selection Measure Condition

   Use Squal for FDD cells and Srxlev for TDD for Sx

   1. If Sx > Sintrasearch, UE need not perform intra-frequency measurements.

    If Sx <= Sintrasearch, perform intra-frequency measurements.

    If Sintrasearch, is not sent for serving cell, perform intra-frequency measurements.

   2. If Sx > Sintersearch, UE need not perform inter-frequency measurements.

    If Sx <= Sintersearch, perform inter-frequency measurements.

    If Sintersearch, is not sent for serving cell, perform inter-frequency measurements.

   3. If Sx > SsearchRAT m, UE need not perform measurements on cells of RAT“

    m".

    If Sx <= SsearchRAT m, perform measurements on cells of RAT "m".

    If SsearchRAT m, is not sent for serving cell, perform measurements on cells of

    RAT "m".
Cell Reselection Criteria (R Criteria)


   All cells should satisfy S Criteria.
   Select the Cell with the highest R value using the following method to compute.



                   Rs = Q meas ,s + Qhysts

                   Rn = Q meas ,n - Qoffsets,n


     The cells shall be ranked according to the R criteria specified above, deriving Qmeas,n and
      Qmeas,s and calculating the R values using CPICH RSCP, P-CCPCH RSCP and the averaged received
     signal level for FDD, TDD and GSM cells, respectively.
     The offset Qoffset1s,n is used for Qoffsets,n to calculate Rn, the hysteresis Qhyst1s is used
     for Qhysts to calculate Rs.
     If an FDD cell is ranked as the best cell and the quality measure for cell selection and re-selection is set to
     CPICH Ec/No, the UE shall perform a second ranking of the FDD cells according to the R criteria specified
     above, but using the measurement quantity CPICH Ec/No for deriving the Qmeas,n and Qmeas,s and
     calculating the R values of the FDD cells. The offset Qoffset2s,n is used for Qoffsets,n to calculate Rn, the
     hysteresis Qhyst2s is used for Qhysts to calculate Rs. Following this second ranking, the UE shall perform cell
     re-selection to the best ranked FDD cell.
             In all cases, the UE shall reselect the new cell, only if the following conditions are met:
             -       the new cell is better ranked than the serving cell during a time interval Treselection.
             -       more than 1 second has elapsed since the UE camped on the current serving cell.
Cell Reselection Parameters
Cell Reselection Parameters
Cell Reselection from GSM to UMTS

   If the 3G Cell Reselection list includes UTRAN frequencies, the MS shall, at least every 5 s
    update the value RLA_C for the serving cell and each of the at least 6 strongest non-serving
    GSM cells.
   The MS shall then reselect a suitable (see TS 25.304) UTRAN cell if its measured RSCP value
    exceeds the value of RLA_C for the serving cell and all of the suitable (see 3GPP TS 03.22) non-
    serving GSM cells by the value XXX_Qoffset for a period of 5 seconds and, for FDD, the UTRAN
    cells measured Ec/No value is equal or greater than the value FDD_Qmin. In case of a cell
    reselection occurring within the previous 15 seconds, XXX_Qoffset is increased by 5 dB.
       where Ec/No and RSCP are the measured quantities.
         FDD_Qmin and XXX_Qoffset are broadcast on BCCH of the serving cell. XXX indicates
          other radio access technology/mode.
          Note:The parameters required to determine if the UTRAN cell is suitable are broadcast on
           BCCH of the UTRAN cell. An MS may start reselection towards the UTRAN cell before
           decoding the BCCH of the UTRAN cell, leading to a short interruption of service if the
           UTRAN cell is not suitable.
         Cell reselection to UTRAN shall not occur within 5 seconds after the MS has reselected a
          GSM cell from an UTRAN cell if a suitable GSM cell can be found.
         If more than one UTRAN cell fulfils the above criteria, the MS shall select the cell with the
          greatest RSCP value.

Inter-system Handover Measure


1) Use Inter-frequency measurement reporting Event 2d, 2f
 to reflect the currently used frequency quality.

Event 2d: The estimated quality of the currently used frequency is below a certain threshold.

        QUsed ≤TUsed 2 d − H 2 d / 2

   The variables in the formula are defined as follows:
          QUsed is the quality estimate of the used frequency.
          TUsed 2d is the absolute threshold that applies for the used frequency and event 2d.
          H2d is the hysteresis parameter for the event 2d.

    Event 2f: The estimated quality of the currently used frequency is above a certain threshold.

      QUsed ≥TUsed             2f   +H 2 f / 2
     The variables in the formula are defined as follows:
          QUsed is the quality estimate of the used frequency.
          TUsed 2f is the absolute threshold that applies for the used frequency and event 2f.
          H2f is the hysteresis parameter for the event 2f.
Inter-system Handover Measure

2 ) When Received 2D reports ( that means the currently used frequency signal is poor ), RNC
   sends Measurement Control (ID3) to let UE begin to measure other system signal . UE will
   send measurement result reports periodically . When Received 2F reports (that means the
   currently used frequency signal is not poor), RNC sends Measurement Control (ID3,but
   different contents) to let UE stop measuring other system signal .


3) When received the periodical reports, RNC use the following formula to judge whether should
    handover UE to another system .


   Mother_RAT + CIO > Tother_RAT + H/2


   Tother_RAT : the inter-system handover decision threshold;
   Mother_RAT : the inter-system (GSM RSSI) measurement result received by RNC;
   CIO: Cell Individual Offset, which is the inter-system cell setting offset;
   H : refers to hysteresis,


     If the formula is met, a trigger-timer called TimeToTrigForSysHo will be started, and a handover decision will be
       made when the timer times out;


Note: if the inter-system quality satisfies the following condition before the timer times out:
   Mother_RAT + CIO < Tother_RAT - H/2
   The timer will be stopped, and RNC will go on waiting to receive the next inter-system measurement report.
   The length of the trigger-timer is called time-to-trigger.

Outer loop control is used to setting SirTarget (Signal to Interference Ratio Target) for inner loop power control. It
is divided into uplink outer loop power control and downlink outer loop power control.

The uplink outer loop power control is controlled by SRNC (serving RNC) for setting a target SIR for each UE. This
target SIR is updated according to the estimated uplink quality (Block Error Ratio/ Bit Error Ratio).
If UE is not in DTX (Discontinuous Transmission)status (that means RNC can receive uplink traffic data),
RNC will use Bler (Block Error Ratio) to compute SirTarget . Otherwise, RNC will use Ber (Bit Error Ratio) to
compute SirTarget.

The downlink outer loop power control is controlled by the UE receiver to converge to required link quality (BLER)
set by the network (RNC) in downlink.
Outer Loop Power Control Parameters
Inner Loop Power Control


The inner loop power control adjusts the UE or NodeB transmit
power in order to keep the received signal-to-interference ratio
(SIR) at a given SIR target, SIRtarget.


It is also divided into uplink inner loop power control and
downlink inner loop power control.
Uplink Inner Loop Power Control

   UTRAN behaviour
    The serving cells (cells in the active set) should estimate signal-to-interference ratio
    SIRest of the received uplink DPCH. The serving cells should then generate TPC
    commands and transmit the commands once per slot according to the following rule: if
    SIRest > SIRtarget then the TPC command to transmit is "0", while if SIRest < SIRtarget
    then the TPC command to transmit is "1".
   UE behaviour
Upon reception of one or more TPC commands in a slot, the UE shall derive a single TPC
    command, TPC_cmd, for each slot, combining multiple TPC commands if more than one
    is received in a slot. This is also valid when SSDT transmission is used in the downlink.
    Two algorithms shall be supported by the UE for deriving a TPC_cmd. Which of these
    two algorithms is used is determined by a UE-specific higher-layer parameter,
    "PowerControlAlgorithm",    and    is   under   the    control   of   the   UTRAN.     If
    "PowerControlAlgorithm" indicates "algorithm1", then the layer 1 parameter PCA shall
    take the value 1 and if "PowerControlAlgorithm" indicates "algorithm2" then PCA shall
    take the value 2.
Uplink Inner Loop Power Control



   The step size DTPC is a layer 1 parameter which is derived from the UE-specific higher-
    layer parameter "TPC-StepSize" which is under the control of the UTRAN. If "TPC-
    StepSize" has the value "dB1", then the layer 1 parameter DTPC shall take the value
    1 dB and if "TPC-StepSize" has the value "dB2", then DTPC shall take the value 2 dB.
    The parameter "TPC-StepSize" only applies to Algorithm 1 . For Algorithm 2 DTPC shall
    always take the value 1 dB.


   After deriving of the combined TPC command TPC_cmd using one of the two supported
    algorithms, the UE shall adjust the transmit power of the uplink DPCCH with a step of
    DDPCCH (in dB) which is given by:

DDPCCH = DTPC × TPC_cmd.
Uplink Inner Loop Power Control

   Algorithm 1 for processing TPC commands
       When a UE is not in soft handover, only one TPC command will be received in each
           slot. In this case, the value of TPC_cmd shall be derived as follows:
       - If the received TPC command is equal to 0 then TPC_cmd for that slot is –1.
       - If the received TPC command is equal to 1, then TPC_cmd for that slot is
   Algorithm 2 for processing TPC commands
       When a UE is not in soft handover, only one TPC command will be received in each
           slot. In this case, the UE shall process received TPC commands on a 5-slot cycle,
           where the sets of 5 slots shall be aligned to the frame boundaries and there shall
           be no overlap between each set of 5 slots.
       The value of TPC_cmd shall be derived as follows:
       - For the first 4 slots of a set, TPC_cmd = 0.
       -      For the fifth slot of a set, the UE uses hard decisions on each of the 5
                   received TPC commands as follows:
              If all 5 hard decisions within a set are 1 then TPC_cmd = 1 in the 5th slot.
              If all 5 hard decisions within a set are 0 then TPC_cmd = -1 in the 5th slot.
              Otherwise, TPC_cmd = 0 in the 5th slot.
Downlink Inner Loop Power Control


 UE   behaviour
 The UE shall generate TPC commands to control the network transmit power
 and send them in the TPC field of the uplink DPCCH. The UE shall check
 the downlink power control mode (DPC_MODE) before generating
 the TPC command:
      If DPC_MODE = 0 : the UE sends a unique TPC command in each slot and the
       TPC command generated is transmitted in the first available TPC field in the uplink
       DPCCH;
      If DPC_MODE = 1 : the UE repeats the same TPC command over 3 slots and the
       new TPC command is transmitted such that there is a new command at the
       beginning of the frame.

   The DPC_MODE parameter is a UE specific parameter controlled by the
       UTRAN.
Downlink Inner Loop Power Control


 UTRAN      behaviour
 Upon receiving the TPC commands UTRAN shall adjust its downlink DPCCH/DPDCH
 power accordingly. For DPC_MODE = 0, UTRAN shall estimate the transmitted TPC
 command TPCest to be 0 or 1, and shall update the power every slot. If DPC_MODE =
 1, UTRAN shall estimate the transmitted TPC command TPCest over three slots to be 0
 or 1, and shall update the power every three slots.

  • 15. Mobile Management Parameter Optimization  Cell Selection & Reselection The changing of cell on which UE camped in idle mode or in Cell FACH, Cell PCH, URA PCH states. That assures UE camping the most suitable cell, receiving system information and establishing an RRC connection on a best serving cell.  Handover The changing of cells with which UE connected in DCH mode. That assures seamless coverage and load balancing.
  • 16. Cell Selection & Reselection Procedure go here whenever a new PLMN is selected cell information no cell information stored for the PLMN 1 stored for the PLMN Stored Initial information no suitable cell found Cell Selection Cell Selection no suitable cell found suitable cell found 2 suitable cell found no suitable cell found Cell Selection NAS indicates that when leaving suitable Camped registration on selected connected cell found normally PLMN is rejected mode (except with cause #14 or #15 [5][16]) return to leave trigger idle mode idle mode suitable cell found Connected Cell mode Reselection no suitable Evaluation cell found Process go here when no USIM in the UE Any Cell no acceptable cell found Selection USIM inserted acceptable cell found 1 Cell Selection acceptable when leaving Camped on suitable cell found connected any cell cell found 2 mode return to leave trigger idle mode idle mode acceptable cell found Connected mode Cell (Emergency Reselection no acceptable calls only) Evaluation cell found Process
  • 17. Cell Selection Criteria (S Criteria) The cell selection criterion S is fulfilled when: for FDD cells: Srxlev > 0 AND Squal > 0 for TDD cells: Srxlev > 0 Where: Squal = Qqualmeas – Qqualmin Srxlev = Qrxlevmeas - Qrxlevmin - Pcompensation When a UE wants to select a UMTS cell, the cell must satisfy S criterion.
  • 19. Cell Re-selection Measure Condition  Use Squal for FDD cells and Srxlev for TDD for Sx  1. If Sx > Sintrasearch, UE need not perform intra-frequency measurements. If Sx <= Sintrasearch, perform intra-frequency measurements. If Sintrasearch, is not sent for serving cell, perform intra-frequency measurements.  2. If Sx > Sintersearch, UE need not perform inter-frequency measurements. If Sx <= Sintersearch, perform inter-frequency measurements. If Sintersearch, is not sent for serving cell, perform inter-frequency measurements.  3. If Sx > SsearchRAT m, UE need not perform measurements on cells of RAT“ m". If Sx <= SsearchRAT m, perform measurements on cells of RAT "m". If SsearchRAT m, is not sent for serving cell, perform measurements on cells of RAT "m".
  • 20. Cell Reselection Criteria (R Criteria)  All cells should satisfy S Criteria.  Select the Cell with the highest R value using the following method to compute. Rs = Q meas ,s + Qhysts Rn = Q meas ,n - Qoffsets,n The cells shall be ranked according to the R criteria specified above, deriving Qmeas,n and Qmeas,s and calculating the R values using CPICH RSCP, P-CCPCH RSCP and the averaged received signal level for FDD, TDD and GSM cells, respectively. The offset Qoffset1s,n is used for Qoffsets,n to calculate Rn, the hysteresis Qhyst1s is used for Qhysts to calculate Rs. If an FDD cell is ranked as the best cell and the quality measure for cell selection and re-selection is set to CPICH Ec/No, the UE shall perform a second ranking of the FDD cells according to the R criteria specified above, but using the measurement quantity CPICH Ec/No for deriving the Qmeas,n and Qmeas,s and calculating the R values of the FDD cells. The offset Qoffset2s,n is used for Qoffsets,n to calculate Rn, the hysteresis Qhyst2s is used for Qhysts to calculate Rs. Following this second ranking, the UE shall perform cell re-selection to the best ranked FDD cell. In all cases, the UE shall reselect the new cell, only if the following conditions are met: - the new cell is better ranked than the serving cell during a time interval Treselection. - more than 1 second has elapsed since the UE camped on the current serving cell.
  • 23. Cell Reselection from GSM to UMTS  If the 3G Cell Reselection list includes UTRAN frequencies, the MS shall, at least every 5 s update the value RLA_C for the serving cell and each of the at least 6 strongest non-serving GSM cells.  The MS shall then reselect a suitable (see TS 25.304) UTRAN cell if its measured RSCP value exceeds the value of RLA_C for the serving cell and all of the suitable (see 3GPP TS 03.22) non- serving GSM cells by the value XXX_Qoffset for a period of 5 seconds and, for FDD, the UTRAN cells measured Ec/No value is equal or greater than the value FDD_Qmin. In case of a cell reselection occurring within the previous 15 seconds, XXX_Qoffset is increased by 5 dB. where Ec/No and RSCP are the measured quantities.  FDD_Qmin and XXX_Qoffset are broadcast on BCCH of the serving cell. XXX indicates other radio access technology/mode. Note:The parameters required to determine if the UTRAN cell is suitable are broadcast on BCCH of the UTRAN cell. An MS may start reselection towards the UTRAN cell before decoding the BCCH of the UTRAN cell, leading to a short interruption of service if the UTRAN cell is not suitable.  Cell reselection to UTRAN shall not occur within 5 seconds after the MS has reselected a GSM cell from an UTRAN cell if a suitable GSM cell can be found.  If more than one UTRAN cell fulfils the above criteria, the MS shall select the cell with the greatest RSCP value.

  • 35. Inter-system Handover Measure 2 ) When Received 2D reports ( that means the currently used frequency signal is poor ), RNC sends Measurement Control (ID3) to let UE begin to measure other system signal . UE will send measurement result reports periodically . When Received 2F reports (that means the currently used frequency signal is not poor), RNC sends Measurement Control (ID3,but different contents) to let UE stop measuring other system signal . 3) When received the periodical reports, RNC use the following formula to judge whether should handover UE to another system . Mother_RAT + CIO > Tother_RAT + H/2 Tother_RAT : the inter-system handover decision threshold; Mother_RAT : the inter-system (GSM RSSI) measurement result received by RNC; CIO: Cell Individual Offset, which is the inter-system cell setting offset; H : refers to hysteresis, If the formula is met, a trigger-timer called TimeToTrigForSysHo will be started, and a handover decision will be made when the timer times out; Note: if the inter-system quality satisfies the following condition before the timer times out: Mother_RAT + CIO < Tother_RAT - H/2 The timer will be stopped, and RNC will go on waiting to receive the next inter-system measurement report. The length of the trigger-timer is called time-to-trigger.

It is divided into uplink outer loop power control and downlink outer loop power control. The uplink outer loop power control is controlled by SRNC (serving RNC) for setting a target SIR for each UE. This target SIR is updated according to the estimated uplink quality (Block Error Ratio/ Bit Error Ratio). If UE is not in DTX (Discontinuous Transmission)status (that means RNC can receive uplink traffic data), RNC will use Bler (Block Error Ratio) to compute SirTarget . Otherwise, RNC will use Ber (Bit Error Ratio) to compute SirTarget. The downlink outer loop power control is controlled by the UE receiver to converge to required link quality (BLER) set by the network (RNC) in downlink.
  • 44. Outer Loop Power Control Parameters
  • 45. Inner Loop Power Control The inner loop power control adjusts the UE or NodeB transmit power in order to keep the received signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) at a given SIR target, SIRtarget. It is also divided into uplink inner loop power control and downlink inner loop power control.
  • 46. Uplink Inner Loop Power Control  UTRAN behaviour The serving cells (cells in the active set) should estimate signal-to-interference ratio SIRest of the received uplink DPCH. The serving cells should then generate TPC commands and transmit the commands once per slot according to the following rule: if SIRest > SIRtarget then the TPC command to transmit is "0", while if SIRest < SIRtarget then the TPC command to transmit is "1".  UE behaviour Upon reception of one or more TPC commands in a slot, the UE shall derive a single TPC command, TPC_cmd, for each slot, combining multiple TPC commands if more than one is received in a slot. This is also valid when SSDT transmission is used in the downlink. Two algorithms shall be supported by the UE for deriving a TPC_cmd. Which of these two algorithms is used is determined by a UE-specific higher-layer parameter, "PowerControlAlgorithm", and is under the control of the UTRAN. If "PowerControlAlgorithm" indicates "algorithm1", then the layer 1 parameter PCA shall take the value 1 and if "PowerControlAlgorithm" indicates "algorithm2" then PCA shall take the value 2.
  • 47. Uplink Inner Loop Power Control  The step size DTPC is a layer 1 parameter which is derived from the UE-specific higher- layer parameter "TPC-StepSize" which is under the control of the UTRAN. If "TPC- StepSize" has the value "dB1", then the layer 1 parameter DTPC shall take the value 1 dB and if "TPC-StepSize" has the value "dB2", then DTPC shall take the value 2 dB. The parameter "TPC-StepSize" only applies to Algorithm 1 . For Algorithm 2 DTPC shall always take the value 1 dB.  After deriving of the combined TPC command TPC_cmd using one of the two supported algorithms, the UE shall adjust the transmit power of the uplink DPCCH with a step of DDPCCH (in dB) which is given by: DDPCCH = DTPC × TPC_cmd.
  • 48. Uplink Inner Loop Power Control  Algorithm 1 for processing TPC commands When a UE is not in soft handover, only one TPC command will be received in each slot. In this case, the value of TPC_cmd shall be derived as follows: - If the received TPC command is equal to 0 then TPC_cmd for that slot is –1. - If the received TPC command is equal to 1, then TPC_cmd for that slot is  Algorithm 2 for processing TPC commands When a UE is not in soft handover, only one TPC command will be received in each slot. In this case, the UE shall process received TPC commands on a 5-slot cycle, where the sets of 5 slots shall be aligned to the frame boundaries and there shall be no overlap between each set of 5 slots. The value of TPC_cmd shall be derived as follows: - For the first 4 slots of a set, TPC_cmd = 0. - For the fifth slot of a set, the UE uses hard decisions on each of the 5 received TPC commands as follows:  If all 5 hard decisions within a set are 1 then TPC_cmd = 1 in the 5th slot.  If all 5 hard decisions within a set are 0 then TPC_cmd = -1 in the 5th slot.  Otherwise, TPC_cmd = 0 in the 5th slot.
  • 49. Downlink Inner Loop Power Control  UE behaviour The UE shall generate TPC commands to control the network transmit power and send them in the TPC field of the uplink DPCCH. The UE shall check the downlink power control mode (DPC_MODE) before generating the TPC command:  If DPC_MODE = 0 : the UE sends a unique TPC command in each slot and the TPC command generated is transmitted in the first available TPC field in the uplink DPCCH;  If DPC_MODE = 1 : the UE repeats the same TPC command over 3 slots and the new TPC command is transmitted such that there is a new command at the beginning of the frame. The DPC_MODE parameter is a UE specific parameter controlled by the UTRAN.
  • 50. Downlink Inner Loop Power Control  UTRAN behaviour Upon receiving the TPC commands UTRAN shall adjust its downlink DPCCH/DPDCH power accordingly. For DPC_MODE = 0, UTRAN shall estimate the transmitted TPC command TPCest to be 0 or 1, and shall update the power every slot. If DPC_MODE = 1, UTRAN shall estimate the transmitted TPC command TPCest over three slots to be 0 or 1, and shall update the power every three slots.
