HSPA & HSPA+ Janani P NexGtech Telecom
Requirements of HSPA •  Data Rate –  Demand for higher peak data rates •  Delay –  Lower latency •  Capacity –  Better capacity and throughput –  Better spectrum efficiency –  Finer resource granularity •  Coverage –  Better coverage for higher data rate.
Release 99 Down link Limitations •  Limited Peak Data Rate •  Capacity and Throughput •  Minimum TTI of 10 ms
Features of HSDPA •  Extension of DSCH •  Adaptive modulation and coding –  QPSK and 16-QAM –  Multi coding transmission –  Fast feedback of channel condition •  Improve transmission efficiency –  Fast retransmission and Physical Layer HARQ •  Fast resource management –  Node B scheduling •  Reduce transmission latency –  2 ms TTI
 
New HSDPA Channels Transport Channel •  High Speed Downlink Shared Channel (HS-DSCH) Physical Channels •  High Speed Shared Control Channel (HS-SCCH) •  High Speed Physical Downlink Shared Channel (HS-PDSCH) •  High Speed Dedicated Physical Control Channel (HS-DPCCH)
