Uplink power control
What's behind?
Power control
sufficient Ebit/N0 to
achieve required QoS
uplink interference,
maximize battery life
l Characteristic of radio channel with multipath propagation (path loss,

shadowing, fast fading) as well as the interference “provided” through other
users – both within the same cell and from neighboring cells – needs to be
considered to find the balance

Some comments on UL power control in LTE
…or in other words what is different to 3G (UTRA FDD = WCDMA)?
l SC-FDMA is the UL transmission scheme, so transmission of
different UE’s in the same radio cell is (almost) orthogonal by
nature, means intra-cell interference is less critical than in WCDMA,
– IIn WCDMA d data rate iis iincreased

– In LTE data rate is increased by varying the allocated bandwidth and the
Modulation Coding Scheme (MCS), where the power can remain typically the same
for a given MCS,

l WCDMA uses periodic power control (0.667ms) normally with a

step size of ±1 dB (“fast power control”), where LTE allows larger
power steps,

– LTE uses a combination of open-loop and close-loop for UL power control, as this
is more affordable and requires less feedback (signaling overhead) than WCDMA,

l PCMAX=min{PEMAX; PUMAX}
l PEMAX is the maximum allowed
power for this particular radio cell

l PUMAX is the maximum UE power, defined as +23 dBm ± 2dB corresponding

to power class 3bis in WCDMA
WCDMA,
– Based on higher order modulation schemes and used transmission bandwidth a
Maximum Power Reduction (MPR) is applied and the UE maximum transmission
power is further reduced (see TS 36.101, table 6.2.3-1),
– Network signaling (NS_0x)
(NS 0x) might be used in a cell to further reduce maximum UE
transmission power (= Additional MPR (A-MPR); see TS 36.101, Table 6.2.4-1)

l RadioResourceConfigCommon IE is part of System Information Block Type 2

(SIB Type 2),
– System information (SI) in LTE are organized in System Information Blocks and are
grouped in SI Messages when they do have same periodicity,
– In contrast to WCDMA SI are not signaled on a dedicated channel, instead the
shared channel transmission principle is used and they are transmitted on PDSCH,
– SIB Type contains at all information about shared and common channels and is
therefore part of each SI message and listed as first entry

rate,
– Full path-loss compensation maximizes fairness for cell-edge UE’s,
– Partial path-loss compensation may increase total system capacity, as less
resources are spent ensuring the success of transmissions from cell-edge UEs and
less inter-cell interference is caused to neighboring cells
cells,
– For α(j=0, 1) can be 0, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9 and 1.0, where 0.7 or 0.8 give a close-to-

Transmit output power (Æ PUMAX)
l Influences directly inter-cell interference, magnitude of unwanted
emissions Ù spectral efficiency,
l Maximum power is defined for power class 3 with 23 dBm ± 2dB,
l However the flexibility of the LTE air interface in terms of bandwidth and
modulation requires Maximum Power Reduction (MPR) with using higher
order modulation schemes (higher signal peaks) and increasing transmission
bandwidth,
