Draft A (2013-01-30)
Compared with Issue 01 (2012-11-30) for RAN14.0, Draft A (2013-01-30) of RAN15.0 includes
the following changes.
2 Overview
2.1 Background
Along with the wide use of the WCDMA system, more and more hot areas use multi-carrier
power amplifiers. When traffic cannot be evenly distributed to different carriers, the requests
for downlink power resources are unbalanced. In this case, dynamic power sharing among
carriers can be used to balance the requests between the carriers and increase the throughput.
2.2 Introduction
In dynamic power sharing among carriers, a carrier that carries the HSPA service can
dynamically use the idle power resource of another carrier that only carries the R99 service, thus
improving the power usage and the HSPA service rate.For asymmetrical power configuration,
the carrier with higher emitting power cannot share the unused power resource of the carrier
with lower emitting power.
The current version only supports power sharing between an R99 carrier and an HSDPA carrier.
Therefore, the following description takes an R99 cell and an HSDPA cell as an example. In
this case, the HSDPA cell can determine the available power according to the power usage of
the R99 cell, as shown in Figure 2-1.
Figure 2-1 Dynamic power sharing between an R99 cell and an HSDPA cell
3 Technical Description
Assume that the NodeB is configured with a power sharing group by running the ADD
NODEBPAGRP command. In addition, assume that the source cell is an R99 cell, which is
specified by the SLOCELL parameter; the target cell is an HSDPA cell, which is specified by
the DLOCELL parameter. In such a case, the algorithm periodically calculates the maximum
power of the source cell that can be shared by the target cell according to the following formula:
l Psource-share denotes the maximum power of the source cell that can be shared by the target
cell.
l Pmax denotes the maximum power configured for the source cell. It is specified by the
MaxTxPower parameter.
l Pcurrent denotes the power currently used by the source cell.
l Rmax-share denotes the maximum ratio of the idle power that can be shared to the maximum
power configured for the source cell. It is specified by the MAXSHRTO parameter.
l Rshare-margin denotes the ratio of the idle power reserved for the source cell to the maximum
power configured for the source cell. It is specified by the SHMGN parameter.
The target cell assigns power to its HSDPA users based on the sum of the maximum power
configured for the target cell and the maximum power of the source cell that can be shared by
the target cell.
Figure 3-1 shows the power of the source cell that can be shared by the target cell.

5 Network Impact
The analysis of network impactis based on this scenario: One power is configured with mutiple
frequencies. F1 is configured with R99 only. F2 is configured with R99 and HSDPA.
System Capacity
After deploying this feature, the capacity of F2 in the busy hours increases by 5% to 6%. In the
idle hours, this feature significantly increases the HSDPA user throughput of F2. The increased
percentage depends on the parameter configuration.
Network Performance
After deploying this feature, the available HSDPA power of F2 increases and the HSDPA
coverage of F2 is improved. But the Ec/N0 of P-CPICH deteriorates which affected the coverage
of F2 and the intra-frequency cells of F2. The deteriorated coverage causes the cell edge users
to hand over to Inter-frequency cells or 2G cells and increases the call drop ratio.
The parameter configuration needs to avoid the impact on user experience of F1 and F2 and cell
coverage of F2.
6 Engineering Guidelines
This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the optional feature WRFD-020116
Dynamic Power Sharing of Multi-Carriers.
6.1 Requirements
l Dependencies on Hardware
This feature does not depend on the hardware.
l Dependencies on Other Features
This feature does not depend on other features.
l License
The license for Dynamic Power Sharing of Multi-Carriers has been activated on the NodeB
side. For details about how to activate the license, see License Management Feature
Parameter Description.
Table 6-1 lists the license information for Dynamic Power Sharing of Multi-Carriers.
l Other Prerequisites
The NodeB software version should be no earlier than RAN11.0.
6.2 Activation
Activation Using MML Command
Run the NodeB MML command ADD NODEBPAGRP to add a power sharing group and set
the related parameters Destination Local Cell ID, Max Sharing Power Ratio, Sharing Power
Margin, Source Local Cell ID.
NOTE
When configuring the 4C-HSDPA feature on the CME, perform a single configuration first, and then
perform a batch modification if required.
Configure the parameters of a single object before a batch modification. Perform a batch modification
before logging out of the parameter setting interface.
Set the parameters described in Table 6-2 on the CME. For instructions on how to perform the
CME single configuration, see CME Single Configuration Operation Guide.
Step 2 (Optional) Modify objects in batches on the CME. (CME batch modification center)
----End
To modify objects in batches, click on the CME to start the batch modification wizard. For
instructions on how to perform a batch modification through the CME batch modification center,
press F1 on the wizard interface to obtain online help.

Margin
Step 1 Deactivate HSDPA for the destination local cell and then configure the power sharing group.
Step 2 Run the NodeB MML command STR DLSIM to increase the load on the destination local cell
to 90% by means of load simulation.
Step 4 Use two HSDPA-capable UEs of CAT 10 or 14 to download data at a high rate in the destination
local cell. Check the HSDPA throughput of the destination local cell, which is indicated by the
VS.DataOutput.UserData counter.
Step 6 Check the HSDPA throughput of the destination local cell. If the HSDPA throughput increases,
the feature has taken effect.
----End
For details about how to activate or deactivate HSDPA, see HSDPA Feature Parameter
Description.
6.4 Deactivation
Deactivation Using MML
Run the NodeB MML command RMV NODEBPAGRP. In this step, set the Destination Local
Cell ID to remove the cell from the power sharing group.
When configuring the 4C-HSDPA feature on the CME, perform a single configuration first, and then
perform a batch modification if required.
Configure the parameters of a single object before a batch modification. Perform a batch modification
before logging out of the parameter setting interface.
Set the parameters described in Table 6-3 on the CME. For instructions on how to perform the
CME single configuration, see CME Single Configuration Operation Guide.
Step 2 (Optional) Modify objects in batches on the CME. (CME batch modification center)
----End
To modify objects in batches, click on the CME to start the batch modification wizard. For
