RAN1686: HSPA 72 Users per Cell

Activating HSPA 72 Users per Cell

Purpose
Follow the procedure below to activate the RAN1686: HSPA 72 Users per Cell feature. For more information on the feature, see the RAN1686: HSPA 72 Users per Cell feature description in WCDMA RAN, rel. RU20, feature descriptions.

Before you start

Restart of the RNC and the WBTS is not required after activation of this feature. This feature belongs to application software and is under license key management. Make sure you have a valid license (a file including the feature information) installed. To check if the RNC license is activated, use the W7I command. For more information on using the command, see W7 - Licence and Feature Handling. Before a licensed feature can be activated, the license must be transferred to and installed in the RNC. For information on transferring the license to the RNC, see License management operations in RNC in WCDMA RAN license management. You can install the license using NetAct or a local MML interface. If you install the license using NetAct, the feature covered by the license is automatically set to the ON state. For information on license management in NetAct, see Managing Licenses, License Manager Help, Licence Manager Technical Reference Guide, and Licence Manager problems inTroubleshooting System Management Problems in Nokia Siemens Networks NetAct documentation. If you use the MML interface, you must also set the feature state (ON/CONFIG/OFF). In new installations, the default state is OFF. For the specific instructions on the license installation in the RNC, see W7L INSTALL OR UPDATE LICENCE in W7 - Licence and Feature Handling. For more information on license management, see License management principles, and License management in WCDMA RAN. To set the feature state (ON/CONFIG/OFF), use the following command: W7M:FEA=<feature code>:<feature state>;

The feature code for this feature is 1478.

RAN1686: HSPA 72 Users per Cell feature needs the following features to be activated before it can be enabled: HSDPA HSUPA RAN312: HSDPA Dynamic Resource Allocation

The value of the MaxNumberEDCHLCG parameter depends on the BTS HW. The value of MaxNbrOfHSSCCHCodes can be 4 only when the flexi release2 HW/EUBB is used.
