Overview

Introduction During admission control, an eNodeB decides whether to accept a guaranteed bit rate (GBR) service request (either new service or handover) based on the physical resource block (PRB) usage and the quality of service (QoS) satisfaction rate of GBR services. During congestion control, the eNodeB controls system load to ensure a high overall QoS satisfaction rate and stable system operation.

Benefits Load control maintains system stability by rejecting certain admission requests or releasing some admitted services, while maximizing resource usage. Load control ensures the quality of admitted services by controlling the cell load. It also provides the required QoS for individual radio bearers and maximizes cell capacity.

Admission Control

This chapter describes the basic feature LBFD-002023 Admission Control. Admission control is categorized into radio-resource-based admission control and transportresource-based admission control. This document describes radio-resource-based admission control. For details about transport-resource-based admission control, see Transport Resource Management Feature Parameter Description. For details about how to configure this feature, see 7 Engineering Guidelines. Radio-resource-based admission control is categorized into user admission and service admission. l

When a piece of user equipment (UE) requests access to a network, that is, when a UE requests setup of a radio resource control (RRC) connection or requests an incoming handover, the E-UTRAN NodeB (eNodeB) performs the user admission procedure.

l

When a UE that has accessed a cell requests a new service, that is, when a UE requests establishment of an E-UTRAN radio access bearer (E-RAB) or requests an incoming handover, the eNodeB performs the service admission procedure.

eRAN Admission and Congestion Control Feature Parameter Description

3 Admission Control

The user admission procedure is as follows: 1.

The eNodeB checks whether the CPU resource is limited. If the CPU resource is limited, the eNodeB rejects the access request. For details about how the eNodeB checks whether the CPU resource is limited, see Flow Control Feature Parameter Description.

2.

The eNodeB checks whether the sounding reference signal (SRS) resource is successfully allocated. For details about the SRS resource allocation principle, see Physical Channel Resource Management Feature Parameter Description. The eNodeB performs this step differently based on whether LBBPc or BBP of another type is configured.

l

If the LBBPc is configured, the eNodeB performs this step as follows:

l

–

If the SRS resource is configured for the cell, the cell supports uplink timing measurement using only the SRS. Therefore, if the SRS resource allocation fails, the uplink timing of the UE may not be accurate and the eNodeB rejects the access request.

–

If the SRS resource is not configured for the cell, the cell supports uplink timing measurement using the demodulation reference signal (DMRS). Even if the SRS resource is not allocated, the eNodeB accepts the access request.

Other types of BBPs support uplink timing measurement using the DMRS. Even if the SRS resource allocation fails, the uplink timing of the UE is accurate and the eNodeB does not reject the access request. NOTE

LampSite eNodeBs do not support the LBBPc.

3.

The eNodeB checks whether the PUCCH resource is successfully allocated. If the PUCCH resource allocation fails, the eNodeB rejects the access request. For details about the PUCCH resource allocation principle, see Physical Channel Resource Management Feature Parameter Description.

4.

The eNodeB checks whether the number of users is limited. If the number of admitted users has reached the maximum or the licensed user number, the eNodeB determines that the number of users is limited and the admission fails.

5.

For the user that is admitted by the eNodeB, if the UE requests a service (that is, to establish an E-RAB), the eNodeB performs the service admission procedure. For details, see 3.2 Service Admission.

6.

If the UE's access request is rejected by the eNodeB, the UE can initiate a user preemption procedure. For details, see 3.3.1 User Preemption. NOTE

The number of emergency UEs that can be admitted is restricted only by the maximum number of UEs supported by the cell rather than by the licensed number of UEs so that emergency UEs can preferentially be admitted. In the RAN sharing scenario, the licensed user number varies depending on operators. Therefore, the eNodeB temporarily allows the access to obtain the PLMN ID to determine whether the licensed user number is limited. If the licensed user number is limited and the preemption based on user number fails, the eNodeB rejects the initial context setup request of the temporarily accessed user and releases the user.

In user admission, UE numbers are reserved for privileged UEs to increase their admission success rates. Privileged UEs include emergency UEs and high-priority UEs with a "highPriorityAccess" cause value in an RRC connection establishment request. Other UEs are common UEs. Issue 03 (2015-11-03)

eRAN Admission and Congestion Control Feature Parameter Description

3 Admission Control

Privileged UEs are defined because resource preemption is not allowed for operators in some countries and areas by local regulations but high-priority UEs of these operators need to be preferentially admitted. The eNodeB determines whether to admit privileged UEs based only on the maximum number of UEs that can be supported by the cell instead of the licensed user number. Therefore, user-number-reservation-based admission control can be enabled to reserve resources for privileged UEs to ensure the preferential admission of privileged UEs. The UE numbers reserved for privileged UEs are controlled by the CellRacThd.AcReservedUserNumber parameter. l

If the CellRacThd.AcReservedUserNumber parameter is set to 0, user-numberreservation-based admission control is disabled. In this case, the eNodeB rejects the access requests of high-priority UEs and common UEs when the number of admitted users has reached the licensed user number. The eNodeB rejects the access requests of both privileged UEs and common UEs when the number of admitted users has reached the maximum number.

l

If the CellRacThd.AcReservedUserNumber parameter is set to a non-zero value, UE numbers are reserved for privileged UEs. In this case, the eNodeB accepts the access requests of high-priority UEs but rejects the access requests of common UEs when the number of admitted users has reached the licensed user number. The eNodeB admits privileged UEs and common UEs based on different UE number requirements. –

The number of privileged UEs that can be admitted is based on the maximum number of UEs supported by the cell.

–

The number of common UEs that can be admitted is the difference between the maximum number of UEs supported by the cell and the CellRacThd.AcReservedUserNumber parameter value. The CellRacThd.AcReservedUserNumber parameter specifies the UE numbers reserved for privileged UEs.

If the CellRacThd.AcReservedUserNumber parameter is set to a non-zero value, it is recommended that SRS resources and PUCCH resources be set to default values. In this case, neither SRS resources nor PUCCH resources will directly cause user admission failures. It is recommended that the ARP values of the bearers for UEs whose cause value for an RRC connection establishment request is "highPriorityAccess" and that for emergency UEs be set to the same. This ensures the GBR services of these high-priority UEs are directly admitted successfully.

3.2 Service Admission When a UE that has accessed a cell requests setup of a new service, (that is, when a UE requests to establish an E-RAB or requests a handover to the cell,) the eNodeB performs the service admission procedure. Figure 3-2 shows the service admission procedure.

3.2.1 Non-GBR Service Admission For a non-GBR service, the admission procedure is as follows: l

If the SRS or PUCCH resource allocation fails, the eNodeB rejects the access request.

l

If both the SRS resource allocation and the PUCCH resource allocation are successful, the eNodeB accepts the request. In the admission procedure, the eNodeB does not check the UE capabilities or whether the cell is congested, or make the admission decision based on the QoS satisfaction rates. NOTE

SRS resource allocation is required only if the SRS resource is configured for the LBBPc.

3.2.2 GBR Service Admission For a GBR service, its QoS has to be guaranteed. The admission procedure is as follows: l

If the SRS or PUCCH resource allocation fails, the eNodeB rejects the access request.

l

If both the SRS resource allocation and the PUCCH resource allocation are successful, the eNodeB makes the admission decision as follows: –

For an emergency call, the eNodeB accepts the request.

–

For a non-emergency call, the eNodeB checks the UE capabilities and whether the cell is congested, and then makes the decision based on the QoS satisfaction rates.

NOTE

SRS resource allocation is required only if the SRS resource is configured for the LBBPc.

3.2.2.1 UE Capability Evaluation The UE reports its capabilities to the evolved packet core (EPC) each time the UE attaches to the network. When the UE needs to update its capabilities, it performs detach and then attach procedures to report the new capabilities to the EPC. If the eNodeB does not know the UE capabilities, it initiates a UE capability transfer procedure to request the UE to report its capabilities to the eNodeB and the EPC. For details, see section 5.6.3 in 3GPP TS 36.331 V10.6.0 (2012-06). When the UE initiates a new service request, the Mobility Management Entity (MME) sends an INITIAL CONTEXT SETUP REQUEST message to the eNodeB over the S1 interface, indicating the UE capabilities and bearer parameters. For details about UE capabilities, see section 4.1 in 3GPP TS 36.306 V10.6.0 (2012-06). The eNodeB stores the information and checks whether the UE supports the specified bearer. If the UE does not support the bearer parameters, the eNodeB rejects the access request. The major concern about the UE capabilities is whether the total rate of various services exceeds the maximum UE capability, indicated by the maximum transport block size for the UE. For details, see section 8.3.1 in 3GPP TS 36.413 V10.6.0 (2012-06).

3.2.2.2 Cell Congestion Indication Cell congestion indications are provided by congestion control to indicate that the Uu interface resources are insufficient. There are four types of indications: l Issue 03 (2015-11-03)

If a GBR service access request arrives, the eNodeB rejects the access request (either new services or handovers) regardless of whether congestion occurs in the downlink or uplink.

3.2.2.3 Admission Based on QoS Satisfaction Rates The QoS satisfaction rate of GBR services in a cell reflects the QoS conditions of admitted GBR services in the cell. It is used for evaluating cell load and making admission decisions. In the downlink, radio resources such as physical resource blocks (PRBs) and power are shared by all UEs in a cell. Decreases in the downlink QoS satisfaction rates indicate limited radio resources. The eNodeB performs downlink admission control based only on QoS satisfaction rates. In the uplink, radio resources may not be fully used because of a limitation on uplink power. The eNodeB performs uplink admission control based on the PRB usage, wait time for uplink scheduling of voice over IP (VoIP) services, and QoS satisfaction rates. Figure 3-3 and Figure 3-4 show the downlink and uplink admission procedures for GBR services based on QoS satisfaction rates, respectively. Figure 3-3 Downlink admission procedure for GBR services

PRB Usage Monitoring By monitoring the PRB usage of services with high scheduling priorities in the uplink, the eNodeB learns about the usage of uplink time-frequency resources in the cell and preliminarily evaluates the cell load. In the uplink, services with high scheduling priorities Issue 03 (2015-11-03)

eRAN Admission and Congestion Control Feature Parameter Description

3 Admission Control

include GBR services and the signaling and services whose scheduling priorities are higher than GBR services, such as retransmissions, signaling radio bearers (SRBs), and scheduling requests (SRs). The Media Access Control (MAC) layer calculates the PRB usage using the following formula:

After filtering, the eNodeB compares the calculated PRB usage with the uplink PRB usage thresholds CellRacThd.UlRbHighThd and CellRacThd.UlRbLowThd and then determines the PRB usage status. Using both the upper and lower thresholds prevents a possible ping-pong effect.

Evaluation of the Wait Time for Uplink Scheduling of VoIP Services The wait time starts when a VoIP service requests uplink resources and stops when the VoIP service is allocated uplink resources. eNodeBs regard wait time longer than 100 ms to be too long.

Evaluation of QoS Satisfaction Rates The QoS class identifier (QCI) of a service reflects the QoS requirements of that service, and each QCI corresponds to a unique set of QoS parameters. For details, see section 6.1.7 in 3GPP TS 23.203 V10.7.0 (2012-06). This protocol describes the characteristics of different services and the standards for evaluating their QoS satisfaction rates in the LTE QoS mechanism. In the downlink, QoS satisfaction rates are evaluated based on the logical channels corresponding to the QCIs. In the uplink, however, QoS satisfaction rates are evaluated based on logical channel groups. A logical channel group is defined as a group of radio bearers with similar QoS requirements. For details about logical channel groups, see section 5.4.5 in 3GPP TS 36.321 V10.5.0 (2012-03). The reason for the difference between the uplink and the downlink is that the eNodeB cannot estimate the amount of buffered data to be transmitted through each logical channel on the UE side. The evaluation method for the uplink helps reduce signaling load and the number of Buffer Status Reports (BSRs). The uplink and downlink QoS satisfaction rates of GBR services are calculated per QCI, and admission thresholds are also set per QCI to achieve admission differentiation between QCIs.

Evaluation of Downlink QoS Satisfaction Rates Services with QCI 1 are VoIP services. Their downlink QoS satisfaction rate is represented by the average downlink satisfaction rate of VoIP services in a cell, that is, the ratio of the sum of the downlink satisfaction rates of all VoIP services in a cell to the total number of VoIP services in a cell. The downlink QoS satisfaction rate of a single VoIP service is calculated by using the following formula:

Issue 03 (2015-11-03)

14

eRAN Admission and Congestion Control Feature Parameter Description

3 Admission Control

A voice packet is satisfactory if it is buffered for a time less than 50 ms. Services with QCIs 2 to 4 are GBR services. The downlink QoS satisfaction rate of GBR services with QCI 2, 3, or 4 is calculated by using the following formula:

where i = 2, 3, or 4 NOTE

Section 6.1.7 in 3GPP TS 23.203 V11.6.0 (2012-06) provides an example mapping between QCIs and service types but does not provide definitions of the mapping. Huawei implements the mapping according to the examples, where QCI 1 represents VoIP services.

Evaluation of Uplink QoS Satisfaction Rates Services with QCI 1 are VoIP services. Their uplink QoS satisfaction rate is represented by the average uplink satisfaction rate of VoIP services in a cell, that is, the ratio of the sum of the uplink satisfaction rates of all VoIP services in a cell to the total number of VoIP services in a cell. The uplink QoS satisfaction rate of a single VoIP service is calculated by using the following formula:

NOTE

The uplink QoS satisfaction rate of a VoIP service is calculated differently from the downlink QoS satisfaction rate of a VoIP service. In the uplink, the eNodeB cannot obtain the time for which voice packets are buffered on the UE. However, if an uplink voice packet is buffered on the UE for a time longer than the length of the timer for discarding Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) PDUs, the voice packet is discarded. Therefore, the percentage of PDCP PDUs successfully received by the eNodeB is used to determine whether there are timeout voice packets. For details, see section 5.4 "PDCP discard" in 3GPP 36.323 V8.6.0.

Services with QCIs 2 to 4 are GBR services. Their uplink QoS satisfaction rate is evaluated for each logical channel group. The QoS satisfaction rate is represented by the ratio of the transmitted data to the total amount of data to be transmitted. A higher ratio indicates a higher QoS satisfaction rate. The uplink QoS satisfaction rate of GBR services with QCIs 2 to 4 is calculated by using the following formula:

QCIs 1 to 4 can be mapped to logical channel groups. For details about the mapping, see Scheduling Feature Parameter Description. If QCIs 2 to 4 are mapped to logical channel Issue 03 (2015-11-03)

group 2, the uplink QoS satisfaction rates for services with QCIs 2 to 4 are represented by the satisfaction rate for logical channel group 2.

Admission Decision Based on QoS Satisfaction Rates The admission threshold for handovers is lower than that for new services. The eNodeB defines four handover thresholds QcixHoThd (x = 1–4) for the QCIs. Based on the handover thresholds, service differentiation can be achieved by setting admission offsets for new gold-, silver-, and bronze-level services, based on the mapping between ARP values and service priorities. The admission offsets are CellRacThd.NewGoldServiceOffset, CellRacThd.NewSilverServiceOffset, and CellRacThd.NewCopperServiceOffset. These offset values apply to both the uplink and downlink. The eNodeB categorizes services based on their ARP values. The ARP values are mapped to three service priorities: gold, silver, and bronze. The mapping can be adjusted by setting CellRacThd.GoldServiceArpThd (the ARP threshold for gold-level services) or CellRacThd.SilverServiceArpThd (the ARP threshold for silver-level services). The ARP values beyond the ranges defined by these two parameters correspond to bronze-level services. A small ARP value indicates a high priority level. Table 3-1 shows a typical mapping between the ARP values and the service priorities. Table 3-1 Typical mapping between the ARP values and the service priorities ARP Value

For details about ARPs, see section 4.7.3 in 3GPP TS 23.401 V10.8.0 (2012-06). For GBR services whose QCIs range from 1 to 4, the admission thresholds for handovers and new services corresponding to a QCI are as follows: l

The admission threshold for handovers is QcixHoThd.

l

The admission threshold for new gold-level services is QcixHoThd plus CellRacThd.NewGoldServiceOffset.

l

The admission threshold for new silver-level services is QcixHoThd plus CellRacThd.NewSilverServiceOffset.

l

The admission threshold for new bronze-level services is QcixHoThd plus CellRacThd.NewCopperServiceOffset.

The relationship between these thresholds is as follows: QcixHoThd ≤ QcixHoThd + CellRacThd.NewGoldServiceOffset ≤ QcixHoThd + CellRacThd.NewSilverServiceOffset ≤ QcixHoThd + CellRacThd.NewCopperServiceOffset ≤ 100% Assume that SQCI = x (x = 1–4) represents the QoS satisfaction rate for QCI x.

For SQCI = x ≥ QcixHoThd + CellRacThd.NewCopperServiceOffset If the QoS satisfaction rates of all QCIs except QCI x are higher than the corresponding handover admission thresholds, then the eNodeB accepts requests for new gold-, silver-, and bronze-level services and handovers with QCI x.

The rules for uplink admission evaluation are similar to the rules for downlink admission evaluation. The difference is that the eNodeB evaluates the QoS satisfaction rates of logical channel groups when admitting GBR services in the uplink. For details, see Evaluation of Uplink QoS Satisfaction Rates.

with the lowest ARP in the same cell. If the common UE has multiple services with different ARPs, the highest ARP is considered as the ARP of the UE. When a UE with a high ARP or an emergency UE attempts to access to the network and the eNodeB rejects the access attempt due to the limited number of UEs: l

If the IntraOpUeNumPreemptSwitch(IntraOpUeNumPreemptSwitch) option of the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.UeNumPreemptSwitch parameter is selected, this UE preempts the resources of common UEs with low ARPs served by the same operator. The preemption is not allowed if this option is deselected.

l

If the InterOpUeNumPreemptSwitch(InterOpUeNumPreemptSwitch) option of the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.UeNumPreemptSwitch parameter is selected, this UE preempts the resources of common UEs with low ARPs served by different operators. The preemption is not allowed if this option is deselected. NOTE

In the user-number-based preemption, the eNodeB establishes a temporary RRC connection for any UE requesting access to the eNodeB in order to obtain the UE's ARP attributes.

In the user-number-based preemption, the resources for the following types of low-ARP UEs are preempted in descending order of priority: l

Low-ARP UEs in the out-of-synchronization state performing non-GBR services

l

Low-ARP UEs in the out-of-synchronization state performing GBR services

l

Low-ARP UEs in the synchronized state performing non-GBR services

l

Low-ARP UEs in the synchronized state performing GBR services

If the preemption succeeds and redirection is enabled, the eNodeB performs a redirection for the UE whose resource is preempted. If the preemption request is rejected and redirection is enabled, the eNodeB performs a redirection for the UE that requests preemption. For details about redirection procedure, see 3.4 Redirection. The ARP value of a bearer of a UE is generally allocated by the EPC. The EPC allocates a low ARP value for the bearer of a CSFB UE. When the licensed number of UEs is limited, such a UE fails to preempt resources and then experiences an admission failure. CSFB UEs can be classified as emergency CSFB UEs and common CSFB UEs. If the value of the IE CS Fallback Indicator in the INITIAL CONTEXT SETUP REQUEST message sent from the EPC to the eNodeB is CS Fallback High Priority, the UE is an emergency CSFB UE; otherwise, the UE is a common CSFB UE. You can set the CsFallbackPolicyCfg.CsfbUserArpCfgSwitch parameter to increase the ARP values of bearers for CSFB UEs. The IEs contained in the ARP values of default bearers for CSFB UEs are configured as follows: l

Pre-emption Capability –

3 Admission Control

The ARP IE priority level for common CSFB UEs can be specified by the CsFallbackPolicyCfg.NormalCsfbUserArp parameter.

To ensure that common CSFB UEs are capable of preempting users when the number of UEs allowed to be admitted is limited, it is recommended that the bearers of common CSFB UEs be configured with high ARP priorities.

3.3.2 Service Preemption When a new emergency service requests preemption and fails to be allocated SRS or PUCCH resources, the service preempts the resources of the common UE in the synchronization state and with the lowest ARP in the same cell. If the common UE has multiple services with different ARPs, the highest ARP is considered as the ARP of the UE. When a GBR service with a high ARP requests service preemption, it preempts GBR services with low ARPs if the request is rejected because the cell is congested or the admission based on the QoS satisfaction rates fails. Service preemption is triggered if one of the conditions shown in Figure 3-3 or Figure 3-4 is met. Service preemption is enabled by selecting the PreemptionSwitch(PreemptionSwitch) option of the CellAlgoSwitch.RacAlgoSwitch parameter. Note that SRBs, IP multimedia subsystem (IMS) signaling, and emergency calls cannot be preempted. A service can preempt other services only if its ARP information element (IE) "pre-emption capability" is "may trigger pre-emption". If a service is not capable of preemption, it cannot be admitted. If service A is capable of preemption, it can preempt a service B that meets all of the following conditions: l

Only non-emergency GBR services can be preempted.

l

The value of the ARP IE "pre-emption vulnerability" of service B is "pre-emptable".

l

The value of the ARP IE "priority level" of service B is greater than that of service A.

l

If service B is a GBR service, the resources allocated to it are greater than or equal to the resources required by GBR service A.

Preemption fails if any one of the preceding conditions is not met. If none of the GBR services of a UE is admitted or preemption for all GBR services of a UE fails, the UE is redirected if redirection is enabled. For details about operations related to redirection, see 3.4 Redirection. NOTE

A service whose ARP value is 15 can neither preempt other services nor be preempted by other services. For details, see section 9.2.1.60 in 3GPP TS 36.413 V10.6.0 (2012-06).

During the preemption procedure, the eNodeB first groups GBR services with low priorities and then selects services that can be preempted from this group. The procedure is as follows: 1.

The eNodeB groups the GBR services with low priorities. The eNodeB first selects releasable GBR services and then groups the services with the lowest priorities among them. A releasable GBR service must meet the following conditions:

eRAN Admission and Congestion Control Feature Parameter Description

3 Admission Control

The eNodeB sorts these GBR services based on the following rule: The service with the largest value of the ARP IE "priority level" has the lowest priority and ranks first. If two services have the same "priority level" value, the service that occupies more PRBs ranks ahead of the other. 2.

The eNodeB selects services to be preempted. The eNodeB estimates the number of PRBs required by a preempting service based on the average spectral efficiency of the cell. The eNodeB calculates the number of PRBs released from the group of GBR services with low priorities. The calculation stops after the number of released PRBs meets the requirements of the preempting service. The preemption fails if no service can be preempted or the number of PRBs released from ten preempted services does not meet the requirements of the preempting service. If the GBR service to be preempted is the only GBR service on a UE, the UE can be redirected when redirection is enabled. For details about redirection, see 3.4 Redirection.

3.4 Redirection During a redirection, the eNodeB sends the UE an RRCConnectionRelease message that includes the target frequency information for the redirection. Redirection is enabled if LoadBasedSwitch under the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.RedirectSwitch parameter is on. The eNodeB selects the target frequency as follows: l

If a subscriber profile ID (SPID) has been specified for the UE, the eNodeB determines the UE-supported RATs and frequency bands and checks for the mapping between frequencies and priorities in the associated SPID configuration. The eNodeB then selects the highest-priority frequency except the serving frequency as the target frequency. For details about SPIDs, see Flexible User Steering Feature Parameter Description.

l

If an SPID is not specified for the UE or frequency priorities are not set in the SPID configuration for the UE, the eNodeB considers the operator-specific dedicated cellreselection priorities for frequencies. Among the UE-supported frequency bands, the eNodeB selects the highest-priority frequency except the serving frequency as the target frequency. The priorities are specified in the EutranNFreqRanShare, UtranRanShare, and GeranRanShare MOs or in the EutranNFreqSCellOp, UtranNFreqSCellOp, GeranNFGroupSCellOp, and Cdma2000BcSCellOp MOs.

l

If an SPID is not specified for the UE or frequency priorities are not set in the SPID configuration for the UE, and if operator-specific dedicated cell-reselection priorities are not specified, the eNodeB considers common cell-reselection priorities. Among the UEsupported frequency bands, the eNodeB selects the highest-priority frequency except the serving frequency as the target frequency. The priorities are specified in the EutranInterNFreq, UtranNFreq, and GeranNfreqGroup MOs. NOTE

If the admission fails for a UE requesting a handover, the UE cannot be redirected to another cell.

Congestion Control

This chapter describes the basic feature LBFD-002024 Congestion Control. Congestion control reduces congestion caused by an insufficiency of radio resources or transport resources. This document describes only the former. For details about the latter, see Transport Resource Management Feature Parameter Description. Congestion can be prevented in most cases if admission control is performed. However, congestion may occur in the following cases: l

The services are diverse and the data rates of certain services vary significantly. Variations in the data volume inevitably affect the cell load.

l

The radio conditions vary because of user mobility. The same service at the same data rate may require different radio resources on different occasions.

In these two cases, the cell load varies and the quality of admitted services gets affected, even if the number of users in the cell does not change. The congestion control algorithm is required to handle possible congestion. Figure 4-1 shows the congestion control process. Congestion control is enabled if the DlLdcSwitch(dlLdcSwitch) or UlLdcSwitch(ulLdcSwitch) check box under the CellAlgoSwitch.RacAlgoSwitch parameter is selected.

Figure 4-1 Congestion control process

When the cell is congested, congestion control releases the GBR services with low priorities first to make some resources available. The release reduces system load and helps ensure the quality of other admitted services. To ensure continuity and stability of emergency calls, the eNodeB does not release emergency calls. For details about how to configure this feature, see 7 Engineering Guidelines.

eRAN Admission and Congestion Control Feature Parameter Description

4 Congestion Control

4.1 Load Status Evaluation The eNodeB checks the load status by monitoring the PRB usage and QoS satisfaction rate. The cell status can be either of the following: l

Congested state A cell is regarded as congested in the downlink if the downlink QoS satisfaction rate of one or more QCIs is lower than the relevant congestion threshold. A cell is regarded as congested in the uplink if the uplink QoS satisfaction rate of one or more QCIs is lower than the relevant congestion threshold and the uplink PRB usage is high, or if the uplink QoS satisfaction rate of one or more QCIs is lower than the relevant congestion threshold and the wait time for uplink scheduling of VoIP services is too long. When the cell is congested, the congestion control algorithm instructs the admission control algorithm to reject all access requests and, in addition, takes actions to reduce cell load. When the QoS satisfaction rates of QCIs 1, 2, 3, and 4 all become higher than the sum of the related congestion threshold and CellRacThd.CongRelOffset, the cell returns to the normal state. The congestion thresholds are specified by QcixCongThd (x = 1–4), that is, by the CellRacThd.Qci1CongThd, CellRacThd.Qci2CongThd, CellRacThd.Qci3CongThd, and CellRacThd.Qci4CongThd parameters. For each QCI, the sum of QcixCongThd (x = 1–4) and CellRacThd.CongRelOffset must be lower than the corresponding QcixHoThd (x = 1–4).

l

Normal state The cell is regarded as normal if the QoS satisfaction rates of QCIs 1, 2, 3, and 4 are all higher than the corresponding QcixCongThd (x = 1–4).

4.2 Release of Low-Priority GBR Services f a cell is congested, congestion control selects a service that ranks the first in the group of admitted low-priority GBR services and releases the selected service. If the only GBR service on the selected UE is released and redirection is enabled, the eNodeB redirects the UE to another frequency or RAT, increasing the access success rate of the UE. For details about redirection, see 3.4 Redirection. After the GBR service is released, the eNodeB checks whether the QoS satisfaction rates of GBR services are restored. If the QoS satisfaction rates of GBR services are not restored, the eNodeB performs the GBR service release procedure again until the congestion is relieved.

Network Impact

6.1 LBFD-002023 Admission Control System Capacity The admission control algorithm maximizes system capacity while satisfying the QoS requirements of admitted services. For example, if the QoS satisfaction rate of GBR services is low, new services cannot be admitted and preemption will be triggered. System capacity can be maximized on condition that the QoS requirements are satisfied.

Network Performance If network congestion results in limited system capacity, the implementation of admission control algorithm decreases the access success rate and handover success rate. For admission control based on QoS satisfaction rates, if the admission threshold is set to a smaller value, GBR services are easier to be admitted and the admission success rate of GBR services increases. However, the service quality of admitted GBR services becomes poorer.

6.2 LOFD-00102901 Radio/transport resource pre-emption System Capacity No impact.

Network Performance Preemption increases the access success rate for users with high ARPs. However, users with low ARPs are forcibly released and their service drop rate increases. The way the eNodeB performs user-number-based preemption will increase the amount of radio signaling because of the following three actions: l

l

The eNodeB releases temporary RRC connections for those UEs that eventually encounter preemption failures.

l

The eNodeB releases RRC connections for preempted UEs.

6.3 LBFD-002024 Congestion Control System Capacity The congestion control algorithm maximizes system capacity while preferentially satisfying the QoS requirements of users with high ARPs. When congestion occurs, the congestion control algorithm informs the admission control algorithm. Then, the admission control algorithm starts to reject access requests.

Network Performance The congestion control algorithm increases the service drop rate because the congestioncontrol-triggered releases of users are regarded as service drops. Counters are provided to indicate congestion-triggered service drops. For details about the counters, see 9 Counters.

Engineering Guidelines

7.1 When to Use Admission and Congestion Control When a network becomes congested with an increasing number of users and higher QoS requirements, eNodeBs need to perform radio resource management so that QoS requirements of ongoing services can be fulfilled and differentiated services can be provided. When radio resource congestion occurs (for example, QoS requirements cannot be fulfilled or radio bearers cannot be set up), activate admission control to relieve congestion and provide service-priority-based access services. When congestion increases so that QoS requirements still cannot be fulfilled, activate congestion control to enable low-priority service release.

7.2 Required Information For both admission control and congestion control, collect the QoS satisfaction rates and uplink PRB usage of cells.

7.3 Planning 7.3.1 RF Planning N/A

7.3.2 Network Planning Network planning is required for redirection. Redirection can transfer loads to inter-frequency or inter-RAT cells if admission fails or a low-priority service needs to be released. During network planning, operators can coordinate resources of the GERAN, UTRAN, and EUTRAN in a hierarchical structure to increase return on investment, better utilize existing resources, and achieve service steering.

7.4.4 Activation Observation Scenario 1: Admission Based on QoS Satisfaction Rates Step 1 On the U2000 client, start S1 interface tracing and start monitoring on the following items: QoS satisfaction rate, RB usage, and the number of services. 1.

Choose Monitor > Signaling Trace > Signaling Trace Management.

2.

In the navigation tree on the left of the Signaling Trace Management window: –

Choose LTE > Application Layer > S1 Interface Trace to create an S1 interface tracing task.

–

Choose LTE > Cell Performance Monitoring > Satisfaction of Service Monitoring to create a task for monitoring QoS satisfaction rates.

Step 2 Use UEs to access a cell, and perform GBR services with a QCI in the range of 2 to 4 on the UEs. Move some UEs towards the cell center and increase the traffic volume of GBR services on these UEs. Move some UEs towards the cell edge until the cell is congested, which can be monitored based on Congestion State in the monitoring results. Issue 03 (2015-11-03)

Step 3 Initiate new GBR services with a QCI in the range of 2 to 4. These new GBR service requests are rejected in admission based on QoS satisfaction rates. Step 4 Check the S1AP_ERAB_SETUP_REQ and S1AP_ERAB_SETUP_RSP messages in the S1 interface tracing result. If the cause value for E-RAB setup failures is "radioNetwork: radioresources-not-available" in the S1AP_ERAB_SETUP_RSP messages, as shown in Figure 7-2, or if the number of services does not increase with the S1AP_ERAB_SETUP_REQ messages, the new GBR service requests have been rejected. Figure 7-2 S1AP_ERAB_SETUP_RSP message that indicates failed admission based on satisfaction rates

----End

Scenario 2: Service Preemption In this scenario, two GBR services (A and B) are involved. GBR service A has a QCI of 3 and an ARP value of 7, and GBR service B has a QCI of 4 and an ARP value greater than 7. The GBR service with a larger ARP value has a lower priority. Both GBR services can preempt other services and can be preempted. To check whether a service can preempt other services or can be preempted, observe the S1AP_ERAB_SETUP_REQ message in the S1 interface tracing result. In this message for GBR service A, as shown in Figure 7-3, the value 1 (may-trigger-pre-emption) of the IE pre-emptionCapability indicates that the service can preempt other services and the value 1 (pre-emptable) of the IE pre-emptionVulnerability indicates that the service can be preempted. The value 0 indicates the opposite. Figure 7-3 S1AP_ERAB_SETUP_REQ message that includes the ARP value and the preemption attributes

Step 1 On the U2000 client, start S1 interface tracing and start monitoring on the following items: QoS satisfaction rate, RB usage, and the number of services. 1.

Choose Monitor > Signaling Trace > Signaling Trace Management.

Step 2 Use UEs to access a cell, and perform GBR service B (with a QCI of 4) on some UEs. Step 3 Perform GBR service A (with a QCI of 3) on some other UEs. Follow operations in Step 2 for scenario 1 in this section so that requests for GBR service A are first rejected due to admission based on QoS satisfaction rates. Initiate new GBR service A. Preemption principles specify that high-priority services can be admitted based on the preemption of low-priority services, so that GBR service A can preempt GBR service B. Step 4 Monitor S1 signaling to verify that GBR service A preempts GBR service B. GBR service B is released, as shown in Figure 7-4. GBR service A is successfully set up.

----End

Scenario 3: Intra-Operator User-Number-based Preemption If user-number-based preemption is enabled and all users can both be preempted and preempt other users, users with high ARPs can preempt users with low ARPs to access the cell when the number of users has reached the licensed value. The verification procedure is as follows: Step 1 On the U2000 client, choose Monitor > Signaling Trace > Signaling Trace Management. Step 2 In the navigation tree on the left of the Signaling Trace Management window, choose LTE > Application Layer > S1 Interface Trace to create an S1 interface tracing task. Step 3 Apply for a license in which the number of RRC_CONNECTED users is 6, and select the IntraOpUeNumPreemptSwitch(IntraOpUeNumPreemptSwitch) option. Step 4 Use a UE that meets the following requirements to access the network: l

The ARP value for the default bearer is 7.

l

The ARP IE "pre-emption vulnerability" is set to pre-emptable for the default bearer.

Step 5 Use another five UEs that meet the following requirements to access the network: l

The UEs and the previous UE are served by the same operator.

l

The ARP value for the default bearer is 6.

l

The ARP IE "pre-emption vulnerability" is set to pre-emptable for the default bearer.

Step 6 Enable another UE that meets the following requirements to access the network: l

The UE and the previous UEs are served by the same operator.

l

The ARP value for the default bearer is 1.

l

The ARP IE "pre-emption capability" is set to may trigger pre-emption for the default bearer.

7.5.4 Activation Observation Step 1 On the U2000 client, start S1 interface tracing and start monitoring on the following items: QoS satisfaction rate, RB usage, and the number of services. 1.

Choose Monitor > Signaling Trace > Signaling Trace Management.

2.

In the navigation tree on the left of the Signaling Trace Management window: –

Choose LTE > Application Layer > S1 Interface Trace to create an S1 interface tracing task.

–

Choose LTE > Cell Performance Monitoring > Satisfaction of Service Monitoring to create a task for monitoring QoS satisfaction rates.

Step 2 Use UEs to access a cell, and perform GBR services with a QCI in the range of 2 to 4 on the UEs. Move some UEs towards the cell center and increase the traffic volume of GBR services on these UEs. Move some UEs towards the cell edge until the cell is congested, which can be monitored based on Congestion State in the monitoring results. Step 3 Check the S1 interface tracing result for the S1AP_ERAB_REL_IND message. If the release cause value is "radioNetwork: reduce-load-in-serving-cell" in the S1AP_ERAB_REL_IND message, as shown in Figure 7-7, the indicated low-priority service has been released as expected. Figure 7-7 S1AP_ERAB_REL_IND message that indicates the release of a low-priority service

7.5.5 Deactivation Using the CME to Perform Batch Configuration Batch reconfiguration using the CME is the recommended method to deactivate a feature on eNodeBs. This method reconfigures all data, except neighbor relationships, for multiple eNodeBs in a single procedure. The procedure for feature deactivation is similar to that for feature activation described in Using the CME to Perform Batch Configuration for Existing eNodeBs. In the procedure, modify parameters according to Table 7-12.

7.6 Performance Monitoring Admission and congestion control involves RRC connection management and bearer management.

Admission Control If the licensed UE numbers, UE number specifications, or PUCCH resources are limited, the eNodeB does not allow new UEs to access the cell or UEs to be handed over to the cell, and the RRC connections for these UEs fail to be established. The RRC connection congestion rate increases. If resources in the cell are insufficient, the eNodeB may reject the access requests of new bearers and incoming handover bearers, and E-RABs fail to be set up. The E-RAB congestion rate increases. The initial E-RAB congestion rate monitors new bearers that fail to be admitted. Table 7-13 lists the methods for calculating the three measurement indicators. Table 7-13 Congestion rate calculation

NOTE

Counters in RRC.SetupFail.Cell monitor reasons of RRC connection setup failures. Counters in E-RAB.EstFail.Cell monitor reasons of E-RAB setup failures. The L.Cell.UserLic.Limit.Num.PLMN counter monitors the number of times that the licensed number of UEs is limited for a specific operator.

Preemption After preemption is activated, UEs establish RRC connections first, and then trigger preemption. If a UE fails the preemption, the RRC connection for this UE is released. If the preemption is successful, the RRC connection for the UE whose resources are preempted is released. The L.Cell.UserSpec.PrepEmp.PrepAtt.Num counter measures the number of released RRC connections. The following counters measure the number of RRC connections of UEs that successfully preempt resources of other UEs: l

L.Cell.UserLimit.PreEmp.Num

l

L.Cell.UserLic.PrepEmp.Succ.Num

l

L.Cell.UserLic.PrepEmp.Succ.Num.PLMN

The L.E-RAB.AbnormRel.Cong counter measures the number of bearers abnormally released in the case of congestion, including bearers released due to preemption and bearers released due to congestion control.

Congestion Control During congestion control, the L.LC.ULCong.Dur.Cell and L.LC.DLCong.Dur.Cell counters measure the uplink congestion time and downlink congestion time, respectively. The L.LC.ULCong.Num.Cell and L.LC.DLCong.Num.Cell counters measure the number of times uplink congestion and downlink congestion occur in a cell, respectively. The L.LC.User.Rel counter measures the number of bearers released due to congestion control. If redirection is performed, the L.RRCRedirection.IntraLTE counter measures the number of redirections.

7.7 Parameter Optimization The L.Traffic.Privilege.User.max and L.Traffic.Privilege.User.avg counters measure the maximum number and the average number of privileged UEs in a cell, respectively. In scenarios where user-number-reservation-based admission control of privileged UEs is enabled, if the CellRacThd.AcReservedUserNumber parameter is set to an extremely large Issue 03 (2015-11-03)

value, the number of common UEs that can access the cell is small; if the CellRacThd.AcReservedUserNumber parameter value is set to an extremely small value, the user number resources reserved for privileged UEs may be insufficient. Therefore, the CellRacThd.AcReservedUserNumber parameter settings must be adjusted based on the values of the L.Traffic.Privilege.User.max and L.Traffic.Privilege.User.avg counters.

7.8 Troubleshooting 7.8.1 Admission Control Fault Description High-priority services fail to preempt low-priority services.

Fault Handling Step 1 Check whether the IE priorityLevel in the S1AP_ERAB_SETUP_REQ message, as shown in Figure 7-8, of the service to be preempted is greater than that of the preempting service. l

If yes, go to Step 2.

l

If no, change the values accordingly at the EPC. Figure 7-8 Checking the ARP value

Step 2 Check the same message to observe whether: (1) The value of the IE pre-emptionCapability is 1 for the preempting service; (2) The value of the IE pre-emptionVulnerability is 1 for the service to be preempted. l

If either of the two values is 0, change the service attributes accordingly at the EPC.

l

If both values are 1, contact Huawei technical support for further troubleshooting.

Indicates whether to enable the admission and load control algorithms. DlSwitch: Indicates whether to enable the algorithm of downlink admission control based on the satisfaction rate. If this switch is on, the algorithm is enabled. If this switch is off, the algorithm is disabled. During the calculation of the QoS satisfaction rate of services with different QCIs, the satisfaction estimation method used dedicatedly for VoIP services is implemented on services with the QCI of 1. If a service with the QCI of 1 is not a VoIP service, the satisfaction rate calculated using this method is lower than the actual value, which affects the admission of GBR services. Therefore, if not all the services with the QCI of 1 are VoIP services, it is recommended that this switch be off. UlSwitch: Indicates whether to enable the algorithm of uplink admission control based on the satisfaction rate. If this switch is on, the algorithm is enabled. If this switch is off, the algorithm is disabled.
