Rise-over-Thermal Noise
In order to decode received data correctly, the uplink
interference shall be controlled.

Rise-over-Thermal is a measure of the uplink load.

NodeB monitors uplink interference and tells UE


how much power can be used to transmit uplink data.

HSUPA Key Technologies


NodebB Scheduling
During HSUPA operation NodeB scheduler considers the
trade-off between the following two points:
Several users those want to transmit at high data rate all
the time

Satisfying all requested grants while preventing overloading


and maximizing resource utilization

HSUPA Key Technologies 2ms TTI


Shorter TTI of 2ms
In HSUPA both 10ms TTI and 2ms TTI are supported.

A shorter TTI allows reduction of the latency and increasing


the average and peak cell throughput.

HSUPA Key Technologies Higher


Data Rate
For a 10ms TTI UE, peak data rate is limited to 2 Mbps.
For a 2ms TTI UE, the theoretical maximum data rate is
5.76Mbps.
The conditions to get 5.76 Mbps
Lower channel coding gain
Effective code rate = 1
Requires very good channel conditions to decode
Lower spreading factor
UE uses SF 2
Multi-code transmission
UE uses 4 codes, 2 with SF2 and 2 with SF4

Calculation of 5.76 Mbps:

New Channels in HSUPA Operation


1. The UE sends a request for resources.
The request includes status of its data
buffers and is sent on E-DPDCH.
2. Based on the request from the UE, the
Node B allocates a resource grant to the UE.
The grant is sent on the E-AGCH channel. 1 1 2 3 5
3. This grant can be modified by the Node B
every TTI using the E-RGCH channel. E-DPDCH E-AGCH E-HICH

the data successfully or not on the E-HICH
channel.

RSN bits in E-DPCCH are used to indicate the type of
redundancy version (RV) of each HARQ transmission and to aid
in soft buffer management at the NodeB.
RSN = 0: First transmission
RSN = 1: Second transmission
RSN = 2: Third transmission
RSN = 3: Additional transmission
RV selection rules:
UTRAN can configure the UE to use RV = 0 for all transmissions.
Or UTRAN can configure the UE to use RSN to change RV.

HARQ Operation and RSN


HARQ feedback is transmitted on E-HICH.
E-DPCCH transmits 2-bit retransmission sequence number
(RSN).
RSN identifies HARQ transmission sequence number.
Incremented at every retransmission and stop at 3.
RSN of 0 indicates a new transmission.

HARQ Operation and RSN


(continued)
Maximum number of retransmission allowed by HARQ process is
configured by RRC.
If number of retransmission exceeds 4, RSN of 3 is used for further
retransmission.
Connection Frame Number (CFN) is used to distinguish between these
retransmission.
For 2ms TTI, subframe number is used, in addition to CFN.

How is Scheduling Performed?


The UE should send a resource request.
The UE reports scheduling information.
The UE sends Happy Bit on E-DPCCH.
UE transmit power should be controlled.
The NodeB signals granted traffic-to-pilot ratio to the UE, which
determines the data rate at which UE can transmit. Through these
grants NodeB can control uplink interference.
For delay-sensitive application over HSUPA, non-scheduled
transmission is used.
Non-scheduled transmissions are sent autonomously and do not
need a grant from the NodeB.

Uplink Scheduling Information


There are two mechanism for UE to tell the NodeB
about the amount of resources needed.
Scheduling Information (SI)
SI can be transmitted with traffic data or alone on the E-
DPDCH.

Happy Bit
Happy Bit is transmitted on the E-DPCCH for every E-
DCH transmission

Triggering of Scheduling
Information
If serving grant for E-DCH is non-zero:
SI is triggered, if serving E-DCH cell has changed and it was
not part of previous serving E-DCH RLS.

Serving grant becomes zero while there is data in buffer.

SI can also be triggered periodically.

If there is not grant available for E-DCH transmission:


SI is trigger if data arrives in empty buffer.

SI can also be trigger periodically in this scenario.

Reliability Schemes for Scheduling


Information
If scheduling information (SI) is transmitted without data:
ACK from non-serving NodeB is ignored.

If scheduling information (SI) is transmitted with data:


Scheduling information is retransmitted with next data
packet until ACK is received from serving NodeB or until the
number of retransmission is reached.
If only non-serving RL send ACK, SI is sent again with new data
packet.

Scheduled Transmission
In the downlink, the NodeB allocates scheduling grants to UE to
tell UE the maximum amount of uplink resource it can use.
Scheduling grants indicates the maximum allowed E-DPDCH/DPCCH
power ratio (T/P ratio).
Scheduling grants are used by the UE to compute largest permitted
transport block (E-TFC selection).
There are two types of scheduling grants:
The absolute grants provide an absolute limitation of the maximum amount
of UL resources the UE may use.
The relative grants increase or decrease the resource limitation compared to
the previously used value;

Absolute Grant
Absolute grants are carried by the E-AGCH channel of the
serving E-DCH cell.
The following information is carried by E-AGCH
UE ID: E-RNTI specific CRC for addressing
Grant: An index to one of 31 value for traffic-to-pilot ratio.
HARQ process control: Deactivate/Active HARQ process
Absolute grant with value 0 is used to deactivate HARQ process

Scope: Indicates the grant affects one or all HARQ processes


For 10ms E-DCH TTI, the scope is always set to all processes.

Relative Grant
A relative grant can be either of the following:
Serving relative grant
Non-serving relative grant
The serving relative grant is transmitted on E-RGCH from all cells
in the serving E-DCH RLS.
It can be UP, HOLD or DOWN.
HOLD indicates that there is no new command.
Each E-RGCH command is associated with a specific HARQ
process.
The amount by which traffic-to-pilot ratio is increased or
decreased is controlled by RRC layer.

Rules for Updating Serving Grant


Serving E-RGCH commands
are ignored for one HARQ
RTT if E-AGCH is received.

If a DOWN command is
received from the non-
serving cell, the UE ensures
for one HARQ RTT that
serving grant is not higher
than the grant considered
after reception of the non-
serving E-RGCH.
