For CN originated paging:

In order to request UTRAN connect to UE, CN initiates the paging procedure,


transmits paging message to the UTRAN through Iu interface, and UTRAN
transmits the paging message from CN to UE through the paging procedure on
Uu interface, which will make the UE initiate a signaling connection setup
process with the CN.
For UTRAN originated paging:

UE state transition: In order to trigger UE in the CELL_PCH or URA_PCH state to


carry out state transition (for example, transition to the CELL_FACH state), the
UTRAN will perform a paging process. Meanwhile, the UE will initiate a cell
update or URA update process, as a reply to the paging.

When the cell system message is updated: When system messages change, the
UTRAN will trigger paging process in order to inform UE in the idle, CELL_PCH
or URA_PCH state to carry out the system message update, so that the UE can
read the updated system message.

Paging type 1:

The message is transmitted in one LA or RA according to LAI or RAI.

After calculating the paging time, the paging message will be transmitted at that
time

If UE is in CELL_PCH or URA_PCH state, the UTRAN transmits the paging


information in PAGING TYPE 1 message to UE. After received paging message,
UE performs a cell update procedure to transit state to CELL_FACH.
As shown in the above figure, the CN initiates paging in a location area (LA), which is
covered by two RNCs. After receiving a paging message, the RNC searches all the cells
corresponding to the LAI, and then calculates the paging time, at which it will send the
PAGING TYPE 1 message to these cells through the PCCH.
Paging type 1 is applicable for both CN initiated paging and UTRAN initiated paging.

Paging type 2:

If UE is in CELL_DCH or CELL_FACH statethe paging message will be


transmitted on DCCH with paging type 2

The message will be only transmitted in a cell


As shown in the above figure, if the UE is in the CELL_DCH or CELL_FACH state, the
UTRAN will immediately transmit PAGING TYPE 2 message to the paged UE on DCCH
channel.
Paging type 2 is only applied for CN initiated paging.

When the CPU occupation or the message packet occupation of a board sub-system
exceeds the threshold, the system will be switched into the flow control state, and the
flow control alarm will occur. When the system returns to normal operation state from the
flow control state, the flow control recovery alarm will occur. However, it is not absolute
that paging will be lost when flow control alarm occurs, because RNC owns different
flow control thresholds for different flow control objects (paging, serial port printing and
message tracing), as long as there is flow control, alarm will occur; but paging loss will
occur only when paging loss occurs.

In idle mode, the UE can monitor the paging in two modes: one is to decode SCCPCH
directly every 10ms, the other is to decode the PICH periodically. The second one is the
DRX, which is Discontinuous Reception Mechanism.
The paging period formula:

DRX Cycle Length MAX(2k, PBP) frames

K is the CN domain specific DRX cycle length coefficient, which is broadcasted


in SIB1. The typical value is 6.

PBP is Paging Block Periodicity , which is 1 for FDD mode

The paging period should be 640ms if K is 6

WCDMA Air Interface Physical Layer

The Page Indicator Channel (PICH) is a fixed rate (30kbps, SF=256) physical channel
used by the NodeB to inform a UE (or a group of UEs) that a paging information will
soon be transmitted on the PCH. Thus, the mobile only decodes the S-CCPCH when it
is informed to do so by the PICH. This enables to do other processing and to save the
mobiles battery.

The PICH carries Paging Indicators (PI), which are user specific and calculated by
higher layers. It is always associated with the S-CCPCH to which the PCH is mapped.

The frame structure of the PICH is illustrated above. It is 10 ms long, and always
contains 300 bits (SF=256). 288 of these bits are used to carry paging indicators, while
the remaining 12 are not formally part of the PICH and shall not be transmitted. That
part of the frame (last 12 bits) is reserved for possible future use.

In order not to waste radio resources, several PIs are multiplexed in time on the PICH.
Depending on the configuration of the cell, 18, 36, 72 or 144 paging indicators can be
multiplexed on one PICH radio frame. Thus, the number of bits reserved for each PI
depends of the number of PIs per radio frame. For example, if there is 72 PIs in one
radio frame, there will be 4 (288/72) consecutive bits for each PI. These bits are all
identical. If the PI in a certain frame is 1, it is an indication that the UE associated with
that PI should read the corresponding frame of the S-CCPCH.

The Secondary Common Control Physical Channel (S-CCPCH) is used to carry the
FACH and PCH transport channels. Unlike the P-CCPCH, it is not broadcasted
continuously. It is only transmitted when there is a PCH or FACH information to transmit.
At the mobile side, the mobile only decodes the S-CCPCH when it expects a useful
message on the PCH or FACH.

A UE will expect a message on the PCH after indication from the PICH (page indicator
channel), and it will expect a message on the FACH after it has transmitted something
on the RACH.

The FACH and the PCH can be mapped on the same or on separate S-CCPCHs. If they
are mapped on the same S-CCPCH, TFCI bits have to be sent to support multiple
transport formats

The figure above shows the frame structure of the S-CCPCH. There are 18 different slot
formats determining the exact number of data, pilot and TFCI bits. The data bits
correspond to the PCH and/or FACH bits coming from the transport sub-layer. Pilot bit
are typically used when beamforming techniques are used.

The SF ranges from 4 to 256. The channelization code is assigned by the RRC layer as
is the scrambling code, and they are fixed during the communication. They are sent on
the BCCH so that every UE can decode the channel.

As said before, FACH can be used to carry user data. The difference with the dedicated
channel is that it cannot use fast power control, nor soft handover. The advantage is that
it is a fast access channel.

Paging SFN formula:

Paging Occasion (CELL SFN) = {(IMSI mod K) mod (DRX cycle length div PBP)}
*PBP + n *DRX cycle length + Frame Offset

n =0, 1, 2and the requirement is the calculated CELL SFN must be below its
maximum value 4096

Frame Offset is 0 for FDD mode

K is the number of SCCPCH which carries PCH, and the typical value is 1

The formula cloud be simplified as: SFN = IMSI mod (2^K) + n * (2^K)

If paging message is not delivered at the air interface at all, it is most likely that paging is
lost. Paging loss is a frequently-seen problem during paging process and it is the
emphasis of analysis in this document. Well detail the solution in the following pages.
The reason why paging has not been sent out is probably the transmission faults of IUB
interface or faults of other equipments, which can be seen through viewing the alarm
information.
Paging message has been delivered, but UE does not receive the message or receives
the wrong message. According to the specific subscriber complaints, if problems exist on
called UE only (prompt tone the subscriber you dialed is out of service), because the
reason is probably that the power allocation of PICH and PCH is too low or there are
problems with UE performance; if problems exist in calling and called UE, the reason is
probably that signal coverage dead zones exist in the area.
UE fails in responding after receiving paging messages. The problem is related to
access failure, for solutions, please refer to access problem optimization.

In general, CN pages target UE in one paging area (location area or RA), which is
called intra-office paging. For CS domain service, CN identifies and pages UE with
location area. In protocols, location area is defined as the area where mobile terminals
can move freely without updating VLR. A location area may contain one or more cells.
For PS domain service, CN identifies and pages UE with routing area. RA is defined as
the area where mobile terminals can move freely without updating SGSN in a specified
operation mode. A RA may contain one or more cells. The relationship between location
area and RA is specified in GSM, namely, RA can be equal to location area in size, or
only the subset of a certain location area.

n is the proportion of location area size to RA size, LA=nRA;


Mmix is the UEs paged quantity by each TTI of PCH;
*H is traffic supported by a specified paging module in a DRX cycle length period;
ErlangperDRXCycleLengthInNRA is the identification of the Erlang supported by a specified
paging module in an RA during a DRX cycle length period.
For instance, n=2, LA=190 means 190 cells in a location area. If the actual location area
of network is larger than 190, it is necessary to divide the location area.
It is recommended by GSM network optimization experiences that the location area
capacity of each local network is larger than 300 carrier frequencies and the location
area with paging traffic exceeding 50,000 in busy hour is divided.

CN paging retransmission is the retransmission paging in case that UE has not


responded at the first time, which can increase paging success rate and connection rate.
But from data in GSM network, paging retransmission success rate is low, especially at
the second time or even more, which contributes a little to paging success rate and
connection rate. Experience data indicates that: Generally, the success rate of the first
paging is approaching to 86%, and the retransmission paging rate is 1.8%. Herein,
retransmission paging success is mainly the second paging success, while success rate
of the third paging is estimated less than 0.2% calculated by the decreasing pattern, and
the third paging (the second repeat) has little influence on paging success rate. The
paging mode of WCDMA is similar with that of GSM, from online statistics, frequent CN
paging contributes little to the paging success rate; contrarily, it increases the system
load.

In order to guarantee the paging success rate, CN will retransmission paging message
at the IU interface. CN paging retransmission times and interval can be configured.
Because paging is initiated specific to location area, paging retransmission will increase
paging traffic. Especially in case of public downlink channel congestion at the air
interface, paging traffic will double due to paging repeat, which will waste downlink
channel resources seriously. CN paging retransmission configuration should be in
accordance with UTRAN.

It is no good for CN paging interval to be too short.


CN sends paging messages to RNC through the IU interface, and RNC calculates the
paging time according to IMSI attached by the paging message and arranges a delivery
at the corresponding paging time of the nearest paging cycle. Currently, RNC of our
company also adopts the paging retransmission mode, the default is repeating once and
the retransmission interval is a paging cycle.
From analysis above, the maximum interval between the time that RNC receives CN
paging and the time that message is delivered to the air interface is a paging cycle. If
RNC retransmits once, CN paging interval should be longer than two paging cycles. (So
that RNC already complete two times of transmission before the CN retransmitted
paging reaches)
The paging cycle realized by our company is 2.56s. If CN paging interval is bigger than
2.56s and less than 5.12, when CN retransmitted paging reaches, and RNC has not
finished repeat paging, RNC will arrange paging in the following paging cycle, Thus only
three paging messages are sent in fact, not four as expected (2 repeated transmission of
2 paging from CN), which causes paging message loss

In order to reduce paging message flow at the Iu interface and increase the probability
that UE receives paging message, UTRAN can retransmit paging messages. UTRAN
paging retransmission configuration should be in accordance with CN paging
retransmission.
Paging is delivered at the fixed time (a paging cycle), and UTRAN paging interval is the
integer multiple of a paging cycle, one paging cycle in general. Therefore, we can adjust
the UTRAN paging repeat interval by adjusting DRC paging cycle coefficient k (means
adjust the paging cycle time, which hence affect the UTRAN paging repeat interval)
UTRAN paging repeat times should not set to too many; otherwise, by adding paging
repeats at Iu interface, the paging channel load at UU interface will increase rapidly. In
addition, UTRAN is realized on MACC layer, and MACC does not identify the specific
PRC message, MACC will go on repeating paging even if UE replies paging response
message. Too many UTRAN paging repeat times will cause the unnecessary system
overhead and message flow at UU interface.
It is reasonable for paging retransmission times to keep the current default configuration.
It is also reasonable to adjust paging retransmission times on RNC maintenance
console using MML command SET UDPUCFGDATA.

Global paging should be avoided in CN. From experiences on GSM network, the wholenetwork paging of CN is the important cause of overload of location area with smaller
capacity; meanwhile, CN global paging contributes little to the improvement of
connection rate of long-distance incoming call.
CN global paging is useful only when UE location area is recorded as failure by NLR,
which hardly occurs, however, once it occurs, it means serious fault occurs; even more
CN global paging does not work.

When UE is in IDLE and PCH state, UE will utilize the discontinuous reception
technology Discontinuous Reception (DRX) to reduce power overhead. According to
Protocol TS25.304, paging cycle length (DRX cycle length) = MAX (2KPBP). where, K
refers to DRX cycle length coefficient, PBP refers to Paging Block Periodicity which is
applied only in TDD mode, for FDD, PBP=1, so, DRX cycle length = 2K.
By default setting of Huawei, K is 6 in both CN-specific DRX cycle length coefficient and
UTRAN-specific DRX cycle length coefficient.

Confidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading Without Permission

Course Name

P-62

Settings of DRX paging cycle coefficient K should be considered with the following
factors:

DRX paging cycle coefficient K determines the DRX cycle length, the larger the
value of K is, the longer the DRX cycle is. Meanwhile, UE power consumption will
be lower, however, the value of K makes UE paging cycle longer. Namely, UE
paging response time becomes longer. If K is set too small, paging cycle will
become smaller, and UE processing paging overhead and power consumption
will increase. In the protocol, the value is within the range of 2 ~12, the current
value of our company is 8, and the paging cycle is 2.56 seconds.

According to the current coding mode of PCH, a TTI can transmit only 240 bits, if
IMSI paging is utilized, only 3 UEs can be paged at the same paging moment; if
TMSI paging is utilized, only 5 can be paged at the same paging moment. And if
the number of UE paging at the same paging moment exceeds the processing
capacity of system, it will cause paging loss and call loss. If K is set too small, the
paging cycle will become shorter, the probability of the same calculated UE
paging moment will increase, consequently, the probability of paging loss will
increase.

Since UTRAN paging retransmission interval is a paging cycle, when setting


DRX paging cycle coefficient K, we should consider the retransmission interval of
UTRAN paging, and the K value should be set in coordination with CN paging
retransmission.

Generally, the following rules should be followed:

If the UTRAN retransmission time is 0 (no retransmission of UTRAN), the DRX


cycle of UTRAN shall be smaller than CN retransmission interval (2s), namely,
the value K at this time should be set to 7 or 8 (1.28s,2.56s), the setting to be 8 is
considered with the paging loss during lu/luB paging flow control;

If the UTRAN retransmission time is 1, the DRX cycle of UTRAN shall be smaller
than half of the CN retransmission interval (1s) , namely, the value K at this time
should be set to 6 or 7 (0.64,1.28s), the setting to be 7 is considered with the
paging loss during lu/luB paging flow control; (Configuration recommended)
