Preface: Why the Handover is Required? l A major characteristic in the mobile communications:

Mobility of the UE

l As a key component of the mobile communication

system, the cell has a limited coverage area.

l The primary function of the handover is to provide the

continuous service for the moving UEs in the coverage of the network.

l Differences between the soft handover and the softer handover: [ In the softer handover, the maximum ratio combination is performed on the uplink signals at the NodeB. In the soft handover, the selection combination is performed on the uplink signals at the RNC. As the gain of maximum ratio combination is larger than the gain of selection combination, the softer handover is better than the soft handover. [ Because the combination of the softer handover is performed at the NodeB, the transmission resources on the Iub interface are saved. HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD.

Intra-Frequency Measurement Events l

The intra-frequency measurement event is identified by 1X where X is A, B, C…. − Event 1A: Relative threshold addition event. A primary CPICH enters the reporting range (FDD only), indicating that the quality of a cell reaches the quality of the best cell or active set quality. When the active set of the UE is full, the event 1A reporting stops. − Event 1B: Relative threshold deletion event. A primary CPICH leaves the reporting range (FDD only), indicating that the quality of a cell is far lower than the quality of the best cell or active set quality. − Event 1C: Replacement event. A non-active primary CPICH becomes better than an active primary CPICH (FDD only). − Event 1D: Change of the best cell (FDD only). − Event 1F: A primary CPICH becomes worse than an absolute threshold (FDD only).

Overview l

l

Characteristics [ RLs between the UE and multiple cells in the UTRAN after the handover—Active set [ Softer handover can be implemented between multiple cells in a RLS. − Soft handover. Selection combination on the uplink and maximum ratio combination on the downlink. − Softer handover. Maximum ratio combination on the uplink and downlink. Advantages [ Soft handover gain, which involves − Multi-cell gain: Multiple unrelated branches in the soft handover reduce the requirements on shadow fading margin. − Macro diversity combining gain: The improvement on the link demodulation performance brings the power gain against the fast fading. [

l

Load sharing: On the uplink, multiple cells receive the UE signals, which reduces the transmit power of the UE. On the downlink, multiple cells transmit the RF signals, which reduces the transmit power of each cell. [ Number of call drops due to ping-pong handovers is reduced. Disadvantages [ [ [

The downlink resource consumption is large, especially the code resources consumed by the high-speed BE services. The downlink power gain is usually negative. In case of power imbalance, side effect occurs.

Speed Estimation Algorithm for Hierarchical Cells (Not Considered Currently) l

When the UE is in coverage of the hierarchical cells, the speed estimation algorithm is enabled. [ According to the measurement events in a period, determine whether the UE speed meets the requirements of the current layer. − If the estimation result is medium speed, maintain the UE in the current layer. − If the estimation result is high speed, hand over the UE to higher layers. If the estimation result is low speed, hand over the UE to lower layers. [ According to the estimation result, initiate the inter-frequency blind handover or inter-frequency measurement handover procedure if the inter-frequency hierarchical structure is used, and initiate the intra-frequency hard handover if the intra-frequency hierarchical structure is used.

l

For the serving cell of which the HS-PDSCH is changed in hard handover [ The HSDPA channel is established in the target cell while the hard handover is performed. [ If the target cell does not support the HSDPA, the DCH is established.

l

For the serving cell of which the HS-PDSCH is changed in soft handover [ If the best cell does not support the HSDPA, and the currently serving HSDPA cell is deleted, the data services are preferred to be established on the HSDPA channel.

HSDPA Directed Retry Algorithm l

For newly-established services [ When the UE establishing only signaling connection initially establishes the PS services, the conditions for mapping to the HSDPA are met according to the mapping principle of the channel type. The current cell, however, does not support the HSDPA or supports the HSDPA but has insufficient resources. In this case, the directed retry to the non-emergency blind handover cell which supports the HSDPA and has available resources is triggered.

l

For traffic volume [ When the UE starts the handover from common channel to dedicated channel in CELL-FACH state due to the traffic volume, the conditions for mapping to the HSDPA are met. The current cell, however, does not support the HSDPA or supports the HSDPA but has insufficient resources. In this case, the directed retry to the non-emergency blind handover cell which supports the HSDPA and has available resources is triggered.

Purpose l

Purpose [ Inter-frequency or inter-RAT measurement can be performed in FDD.

l

Causes [ Downlink compression: one transceiver can work with only one TRX frequency. If the transceiver needs to measure the signals of other frequencies, the transceiver must stop working and switch the working frequency over to the target frequency for measurement. To ensure that the downlink signals can be properly transmitted, the transceiver must transmit the original signals in the remaining transmitting duration. [ Uplink compression: When the measurement frequency is close to the uplink transmit frequency, that is, the operating frequencies of GSM 1800 or GSM 1900 is close to the uplink working frequencies in FDD, the transceiver must stop transmitting the uplink signals to guarantee the quality of the measurement.

Implementation l

Implementation [ Halving the spreading factor − The spreading factor of the compressed frame is used as a half and is replaced by the scrambling code if necessary. − Advantage: The processing of the RNC is simple, and relatively greater TGL can be provided. − Disadvantage: The NodeB processing capability is occupied, and the code resource usage is decreased. It cannot be used in the case of SF = 4. In addition, it has a significant impact on the coverage, and the replacement of the scrambling code brings about relatively greater interference. [ Hole-drilling mode (protocol cancellation) − The encoding redundancy can be decreased. − Advantage: The higher layer is simple. In addition, it can be used in the case of SF = 4, and the code resource usage is not affected. − Disadvantage: It is restricted by the channel encoding feature. The encoding gains are reduced. [ Higher layer scheduling − By restricting the TFCS, the Mac layer changes the data transmission rate. − Advantage: The introduced interference is relatively low. − Disadvantage: The processing of the higher layer (layer 2) is complicated and can be used only in non-real-time data services.

Compressed Mode [ Power control performance − Power TX after the timeslot is compressed: possibly in line with the radio channel − Recovery period power control process: speeding the power control process towards target − ITP: Initial Transmit Power (the uplink power control method to be used to compute the initial transmit power after the compressed mode gap) − Recovery period power control: RPP − Power control compensation: DeltaSIR and DeltaSIRAfter [ Tracing performance − There exists clock drift. Therefore, the TGPL cannot be large to reduce the cell synchronization loss during the frequency handover. (Duration of step loss is around 300 ms.) [ Interference control − Compressed mode method selection [ Synchronization of compressed mode − Activation synchronization ▪ CFN takes 256 chips as the cycling period. ▪ The UE and NodeB have different delays for receiving signaling. ▪ The start time of the UE and NodeB is not more than 256 chips. − Soft handover synchronization ▪ After the compressed mode is started, the handover is still preferably soft handover. ▪ Soft handover can possibly occur in different NodeBs. ▪ The synchronization of the newly-added compressed frame in radio link and original link must be guaranteed.

Limitations of the Compressed Mode Pattern Sequences l

Limitations [ Overlap of gap pattern sequences cannot be created, that is, two or more gap pattern sequences cannot be created in the same frame. [ Only seven timeslots can be compressed in each frame. [ Three consecutive compressed frames cannot co-exist. [ When multiple compressed modes run simultaneously, the above conditions must be met. [ TGPL1 must equal TGPL2. [ Each compressed mode pattern sequence is used for only one kind of measurement. [ The uplink and downlink compressed mode pattern sequence parameters cannot be separately set.

More Information About the RRC Directed Retry and Redirection l

The triggering condition is that the signaling access grant fails. [ If no access grant is performed (directly accepted) for the signaling, the algorithm fails. The algorithm is effective during congestion. [ If access grant is performed for the signaling, the possibility for triggering the RRC directed retry and redirection is low. Only when cell congestion occurs, the possibility is high.

l

Comparison of advantages and disadvantages [ For the RRC directed retry, subscribes feel shorter delay. [ RRC redirection is more flexible and can be used to reselected to the GSM cell. Subscribers, however, feel longer delay.
