Abstract:
This technical paper aims to give the readers meaning of power margin and the
optimization of power margin.
Cell throughput can be improved through power margin based on writers experience,
and no deterioration of call drop rate was observed after optimization in E operators
UMTS network.
1 Background
1.1
According to RNC performance, the highest of maximum power utility (@Busy Hour) is only
96%, far below 100%. Why doesnt maximum power utility reach 100%?

2 Analysis
2.1
There is a parameter named Power Margin in NodeB configuration file. The meaning
of power margin is reserved power for R99 power control within next 2ms when HSDPA
scheduling.
Available HSDPA Power = 1- Power Margin - Non HSDPA Power
The default setting of power margin is 5% of the total power.
2.2
If power margin is 0, cell power utility reaches 100% (30%+70%) when HSDPA scheduling in slot1

2.4
Impact of Suggestion
Value:
The power margin decreases, so the HSDPA available power will increase, so the
Risk:
Call Drop rate of R99 service may be affected because there is no enough power
