WCDMA HSUPA RAN12 Principle Confidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading Without Permission P-1This introduces an important feature of 3GPP R6, High Speed Uplink Packet Access (HSUPA). As an uplink (UL) high speed data transmission solution, HSUPA provides a theoretical maximum UL rate of 5.76 Mbps on the Uu interface. It improves user experience with significantly higher data rate, lower delay, and faster connection setup, which allows operators to offer new services and attract new users.

WCDMA HSUPA RAN12 Principle Confidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading Without Permission P-4Data Services are expected to grow significantly within the next few years. Current 2.5G and 3G operators are already reporting that a significant proportion of usage is now devoted to data, implying an increasing demand for high-data-rate, content-rich multimedia services. Although current Release 99 WCDMA systems offer a maximum practical data rate in Uplink of 384 kbps, the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) has included in Release 6 of the specifications a new high-speed, low-delay feature called High Speed Uplink Packet Access (HSUPA).HSUPA provides significant enhancements to the Uplink compared to WCDMA Release 99 in terms of peak data rate, cell throughput, and latency. This is achieved through the implementation of a fast resource control and allocation mechanism that employs such features as Adaptive Coding, fast Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) and Shorter Physical Layer frames. With the addition of HSUPA, a better balance between Downlink HSDPA and Uplink traffic performance is also achieved.The High Speed Uplink Packet Access (HSUPA) is a 3GPP Release 6 feature, also called Enhanced Uplink (EUL) or Enhanced DCH (E-DCH).Page5UMTS Data Rate Evolution GSMGPRSEDGEWCDMA R99HSDPA R5HSUPA R6Mobile Network Uplink Peak Data RateDownlink Peak Data RateGSM9.6Kbps9.6KbpsGPRS20Kbps40KbpsEDGE60Kbps120KbpsWCDMA Release 99384Kbps384KbpsHSDPA Release 5384Kbps10MbpsHSUPA Release 61.4Mbps/5.76Mbps10MbpsCopyright 2010 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.

WCDMA HSUPA RAN12 Principle Confidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading Without Permission P-5Mobile network data rate evolutionWCDMA data transmission evolved from GSM/GPRS, inheriting much of the upper layer functionality directly from those systems. The first commercial deployments of WCDMA are based on a version of the standards called Release 99, with HSDPA introduced in Release 5 to offer higher speed Downlink data services.Enhanced Data rates for GSM Evolution (EDGE) is another system in the GSM/GPRS family that some operators have deployed as an intermediate step before deploying WCDMA.Release 6 introduces the High Speed Uplink Packet Access (HSUPA) to provide faster data services for the Uplink.For HSUPA (Uplink) the theoretical maximum achievable peak data rate is 5.76 Mbps, while for HSDPA (Downlink) it is 14.4 Mbps.Page6Release 99 Uplink Packet DataDCH (Dedicated Channel)Variable spreading factorClosed loop power controlMacro diversity (soft handover)RACHCommon spreading codeFixed spreading factorNo closed loop power controlNo soft handoverCopyright 2010 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.

WCDMA HSUPA RAN12 Principle Confidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading Without Permission P-6Release 99 Uplink Packet DataThere are two different techniques defined in the Release 99 specification to enable Uplink packet data. Most commonly, data transmission is supported using either the Dedicated Channel (DCH) or the Random Access Channel (RACH). The DCH is the primary means of supporting packet data services. Each UE uses an Orthogonal Variable Spreading Factor (OVSF) code, dependent on the required data rate. Fast closed loop Power Control is employed to ensure that a target Signal-to-Interference Ratio (SIR) is maintained in order to control the block error rate (BLER). Macro Diversity is supported using soft handover.Data transfer can also be supported on the RACH. This common channel employs an OVSF code, with a spreading factor between 32 and 256, as negotiated with UTRAN during the Access procedure. Because it needs to be shared among all UEs, higher data rates are generally not supported. Macro Diversity is also not supported and the channel operates with a fixed (or slow changing) power allocation

WCDMA HSUPA RAN12 Principle Confidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading Without Permission P-7Release 99 Uplink Limitations Among the available options for Uplink data transmissions in Release 99, the Common Channel (RACH) only allows for a small amount of data and a limited duration of the transmission. Thus, from a practical point of view, the Dedicated Channel (DCH) is the way to accommodate packet services in a Release 99 network. However, significant limitations must also be faced when using the Uplink DCH:Large Scheduling Delay: In Release 99, the scheduling of resources is done in the serving RNC and involves Layer 3 signaling messages to and from the UE, which causes the mechanism to be relatively slow in assigning or reconfiguring the resources assigned to a particular UE. Large Latency: The transmission time interval can vary from 80 ms down to 10 ms as best case, posing an intrinsic boundary to the latency values. In addition to that, the only available mechanism for retransmissions of erroneous packets is located in RNC, thus significantly contributing to the latency figures Limited Uplink Data Rate: Though the standard allows for high data rate on the Release 99 Uplink, typical values of maximum data rate observed in deployed networks range from 64 kbps up to 384 kbps, while using a spreading factor of 4. In order to achieve higher peak data rates, lower coding rates and multi-code transmission shaould be used, but these are not available in R99 systems.Page8High Speed Uplink Packet AccessE-DCH channel has been introducedInterference is shared by multiple users NodeB controls all UEs data rate with fast scheduling E-DCHE-DCHE-DCHE-DCHCopyright 2010 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.

WCDMA HSUPA RAN12 Principle Confidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading Without Permission P-8HSUPA is realized by introducing the Enhanced Dedicated Channel (E-DCH)In HSUPA, the Node B allows several UEs to transmit at a certain power level at the same time. These grants are assigned to users by using a fast scheduling algorithm that allocates the resources on a short-term basis (every 10ms or 2ms).The rapid scheduling of HSUPA is well suited to the burst feature of packet service. During periods of high activity, a given user may get a larger percentage of the available resources, while getting little or no bandwidth during periods of low activity.Page9Improved Characters by HSUPAHigher peak data rate in uplinkReduced latencyFaster retransmission to improve throughputFast schedulingOptimize the resource allocation to maximize the total throughputQuality of Service supportImprove QoS control and resource utilizationCopyright 2010 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.

WCDMA HSUPA RAN12 Principle Confidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading Without Permission P-13This slide lists some important aspects for comparing HSDPA and HSUPA to help understand HSUPA principles and operation.The HSDPA concept is based on high speed shared channels with fast L1 HARQ retransmission and rate and modulation adaptation to adjust to channel conditions. The fast scheduler is located in the Node B and assigns the available resources (power and codes) to several users. This enables cell power to be directed to a single user (or to a small group of users) for a short period of time, during which other users do not get any data. In this way, one Node B transmitter can be shared among many UE receivers.For HSUPA, the channel remains a dedicated channel, but with enhanced capabilities such as fast scheduling and L1 HARQ retransmissions. Power control and soft handover are still used to adapt to radio channel conditions. Because each UE has an independent transmitter with its own power and code availability, the HSUPA scheduler can accommodate many users to be received by the same Node B, where the Rise-over-Thermal Noise level indicates the uplink loading of the system.Page14Rise-over-Thermal NoiseIn order to decode received data correctly, the uplink interference shall be controlled.Rise-over-Thermal is a measure of the uplink load.NodeB monitors uplink interference and tells UE how much power can be used to transmit uplink data.Copyright 2010 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.

WCDMA HSUPA RAN12 Principle Confidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading Without Permission P-14The Rise-over-Thermal noise level is a measure of the uplink load at the NodeB receiver.By increasing the number of UEs transmitting on the uplink and their transmit power, the overall level of interference in the uplink band also increases.The NodeB receiver perceives this level as noise, and it directly affects the decoding performance of uplink data transmissions.The NodeB controls the interference level by adjusting the UE grant assignments according to the current interference level.When the UE receives a new grant, it uses it in combination with available UE transmit power and amount of data in the buffer to determine the data rate and the corresponding transmit power.

WCDMA HSUPA RAN12 Principle Confidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading Without Permission P-15Similar to HSDPA, HSUPA implements fast resource allocation and control with a scheduler in the NodeB. While the HSDPA scheduler accommodates a common resource to several users, the HSUPA scheduler has a different task: it coordinates the reception of data transmitted from several UEs to a single NodeB. This can be regarded as a very fast resource allocation of a dedicated channel (E-DCH), rather than a sharing of a common channel (HS-DSCH).On one side, each UE will tend to transmit as much as possible based on channel conditions, the amount of data in the buffer, and the power available. On the other side, the scheduler will try to satisfy each connected UE while preventing overloading and maximizing resource utilization and cell throughput.

WCDMA HSUPA RAN12 Principle Confidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading Without Permission P-17The following assumptions are needed to achieve the theoretical maximum data rate of 5.76 Mbps:Lower channel coding gain Using an effective code rate of 1 increases the data rate, but the channel conditions must be very good for the NodeB to correctly decode every data block on the first transmission.Lower spreading factor UE must use SF 2.Multi-code transmission Four codes (2 codes with SF2 and 2 codes with SF4) are used by E-DPDCH.Shorter TTI 2ms TTI is needed. Because the maximum transport block size is 20000 bits with 10ms TTI, the maximum data rate for 10ms TTI is 2Mbps.In a practical scenario, the practical maximum data rate will be less than 5.76 Mbps, due to less than ideal channel conditions, the need for retransmission, and the need to share the UE power with other channels.

WCDMA HSUPA RAN12 Principle Confidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading Without Permission P-18Hybrid ARQ The hybrid ARQ for HSUPA consists of an N-Channels stop-and-wait protocol. The number of HARQ processes is 4 for a 10 ms TTI and 8 for a 2 ms TTI configuration. The retransmission is synchronous, with separate feedback provided for each radio link. After requesting and receiving a grant for data transmissions:The UE transmits the data of the corresponding HARQ process to all NodeBs for which a radio link exists.Each Node B connected to the UE sends ACK/NAK back to the UE.The transmission is successfully completed if an acknowledge (ACK) is received.

WCDMA HSUPA RAN12 Principle Confidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading Without Permission P-19E-DCH (Enhanced Uplink Dedicated Channel) An uplink transport channel. The E-DCH operates on a 2 or 10 ms Transmission Time Interval (TTI) and carries a single transport block per TTI. The channels is mapped on one or more (up to 4) E-DCH Dedicated Physical Data Channels (E-DPDCHs) and has an associated E-DCH Dedicated Physical Control Channel (E-DPCCH).E-DPDCH (E-DCH Dedicated Physical Data Channel) An uplink physical channel used to carry uplink data for the E-DCH transport channel. It supports BPSK modulation with I and Q branches and it is allocated every TTI. Up to 4 channels can be used to carry the E-DCH transport channel in a multi-code transmission scheme.E-DPCCH (E-DCH Dedicated Physical Control Channel) An uplink physical channel for control information associated with E-DPDCH. It carries information about the transport format used on E-DCH and the HARQ retransmission sequence number; it includes one bit to support scheduling decisions at the NodeB.E-HICH (E-DCH Hybrid ARQ Indicator Channel) A downlink physical channel that carries feedback (ACK/NAK) from the Node B on the previous data transmission, to support HARQ retransmission. Since soft handover is supported for HSUPA, each cell belonging to the E-DCH Active Set transmits the E-HICH.E-AGCH (E-DCH Absolute Grant Channel) A downlink physical channel that carries scheduler grant information from the E-DCH serving cell. The absolute grant indicates directly to the UE the Traffic-to-Pilot ratio that shall be used for scheduled transmissions.E-RGCH (E-DCH Relative Grant Channel) A downlink physical channel that carries scheduler grant information from cells belonging to the serving NodeB as well as to non-serving cells in the E-DCH active set. The relative grant tells the UE to increase, decrease, or maintain the current Traffic-to-Pilot ratio.

WCDMA HSUPA RAN12 Principle Confidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading Without Permission P-20DCCH and DTCH can be mapped to E-DCH. A UE using HSUPA can also have additional Release 99 DCH and/or HSDPA channels, although the standard specifies restrictions for the possible combinations. Because power control and soft handover are supported for E-DCH, the channel can be seen as an extension of the Release 99 DCH.The E-DPCCH, E-HICH, E-AGCH, and E-RGCH are physical layer (control) channels. They carry no upper layer information, and therefore have no logical or transport channel mapping.Page21HSUPA Channel OperationThe UE sends a transmission request to the NodeB for getting resources.The NodeB responds to the UE with a grant assignment, allocating uplink band to the UE.The UE uses the grant to select the appropriate transport format for the Data transmission to the NodeB.The NodeB attempts to decode the received data and send ACK/NACK to the UE. In case of NACK, data may be retransmitted.

WCDMA HSUPA RAN12 Principle Confidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading Without Permission P-21This slide illustrates HSUPA operation :1. The UE asks the NodeB for a grant to transmit data on uplink.2. If the Node B allows the UE to send data, it indicates the grant in terms of Traffic-to-Pilot (T/P) ratio. The grant is valid until a new grant is provided.3. After receiving the grant, the UE can transmit data starting at any TTI and may include further requests. Data are transmitted according to the selected transport format, which is also signaled to the NodeB.4. After the Node B decodes the data, it sends an ACK or NAK back to the UE. If the NodeB sends a NAK, the UE may send the data again with a retransmission.

No Spreading Without Permission P-24This slide illustrates an HSUPA Data Transmission for scheduled grants.After receiving the grant, the UE can transmit data starting at any TTI and may include additional scheduling information. The transport format is first selected based on the received grant, on the available power and on the data in the buffer.Data are transmitted on a set of E-DPDCH channels, and transport format Information is signaled to the Node B on the corresponding E-DPCCH. The Happy Bit (Happy Bit indicates the UEs level of satisfaction. ) is also included.

WCDMA HSUPA RAN12 Principle Confidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading Without Permission P-26In a Release 99 PS network, the NAS layer protocols terminate at the SGSN. The RRC, RLC, and MAC protocols terminate at the RNC. The Physical Layer protocol terminates at the NodeB.The Release 5 specifications define a new sub-layer of MAC for the downlink called MAC-hs, which implements the MAC protocols and procedures for HSDPA. This sub-layer operates at the NodeB and the UE. The location of MAC-hs in the Node B has an important implication for HSDPA operation.Similarly, the Release 6 specifications define a new sub-layer of MAC for the uplink called MAC-e/es, which implements the MAC protocols and procedures for HSUPA. This sub-layer operates at the NodeB (MAC-e), at the RNC (MAC-es), and the UE (MAC-e/es).The location of MAC-e in the NodeB has an important implication for HSUPA operation, allowing for fast retransmissions at the physical Layer. The MAC-es, which is responsible for reordering of the data packets, is located in the RNC for HSUPA because a UE may be in soft handover with multiple Node Bs. Transport channel frames are constructed by the MAC sublayer in the UE and sent over the air interface to each NodeB with which the UE is in soft handover. The RNC receives identical transport channel frames from each NodeB over the Iub interfaces and performs reordering.

WCDMA HSUPA RAN12 Principle Confidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading Without Permission P-28What determines the maximum data rate supported by different categories of UE? It is a combination of the maximum number of E-DPDCH channels, the spreading factor, and maximum bits in one TTI.For 10 ms TTI, a maximum of 2 Mbps peak data rate can be achieved, corresponding to a maximum transport block size of 20000 bits. To achieve higher rates, a TTI of 2 ms shall be used.With a single E-DPDCH channel, a spreading factor from 256 to 4 is allowed. For multi-code transmissions, only SF4 and SF2 are allowed, in the following combinations: (2 x SF4) or (2 x SF2) or (2 x SF4 + 2 x SF2). Note that SF=2 is not permitted on a single code transmission. Page29ContentsIntroduction of HSUPAHSUPA ConceptsPhysical Layer Channels and Processing

WCDMA HSUPA RAN12 Principle Confidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading Without Permission P-30The main introduction in Release 6 is the new data channel, Enhanced Dedicated Channel or E-DCH, which carries the uplink high speed data. New physical channels are introduced to support E-DCH.On the uplink, two new physical channels are introduced: E-DPDCH (Dedicated Physical Data Channel for E-DCH) and E-DPCCH (Dedicated Physical Control Channel for E-DCH). The E-DCH can be mapped to one to four uplink E-DPDCHs (Dedicated Physical Data Channels for E-DCH), with improved coding and modulation design. The physical layer control information, E-TFCI etc., is carried on one E-DPCCH (Dedicated Physical Control Channel for E-DCH).On the Downlink, three new physical channels are introduced to support E-DCH. The downlink physical channels E-HICH (HARQ Indicator Channel for E-DCH) and E-RGCH (Relative Grant Channel for E-DCH) are dedicated channels and they share a single channelization code assigned by the higher layer to the UE. The UE increases or decreases its E-DCH data rate based on the relative grant indicator on E-RGCH. The downlink channel E-AGCH (Absolute Grant Channel for E-DCH) is a common channel shared by all the users in the cell. The addressing on E-AGCH is realized by masking CRC bits with E-RNTI (RNTI for E-DCH).

Page31New Channels in HSUPA Operation1. The UE sends a request for resources. The request includes status of its data buffers and is sent on E-DPDCH.2. Based on the request from the UE, the Node B allocates a resource grant to the UE. The grant is sent on the E-AGCH channel.3. This grant can be modified by the Node B every TTI using the E-RGCH channel.4. The UE transmits data on E-DPDCH. Control information needed to decode the data is sent on E-DPCCH.5. The Node B decodes the received packet and informs the UE whether it could decode the data successfully or not on the E-HICH channel.E-DPDCHE-DPCCHE-AGCHE-RGCHE-HICH1435214Copyright 2010 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.

WCDMA HSUPA RAN12 Principle Confidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading Without Permission P-32The standard allows up to four E-DPDCH channels to be configured for a single E-DCH. However, the actual maximum number of E-DPDCH channels to be used in a connection depends on the UE capability as well as the UTRAN configuration.For E-DPCCH, only one E-DPCCH can be configured per UE.For HSUPA operation, the Node B negotiates the transmission time interval (TTI) on E-DCH for each UE. The decision could be based on the UE capability as well as on the negotiated peak data rate.
