• a cell-ranking criterion R was specified:
•Rs = Qmeas,s + Qhysts (for the serving cell)
•Rn = Qmeas,n - Qoffsets,n (for candidate neighbouring cells for cell reselection)
• The serving cell and the remaining candidate cells are ranked according to criterion R.
• The cell ranked with the highest value R is the best cell for the UE to camp on.
• Qhysts gives a hysteresis value to make the serving cell more attractive and thus delay the cell re-
selection.
• The value Qoffset is an offset given for each individual neighbouring cell, which ranges between –50
and 50 dB, with default set to 0.• Qoffset2/ Qhyst2s when Ec/No is used
• Qoffset1 Qhyst1s when RSCP is use
• Is the cell re-selection initiated immediately after the UE ranks a neighbouring cell to be the best?
•If so, we could face a ping-pong effect – a UE often performing cell reselection between two
neighbouring cells.
•To avoid this, the operator uses the time interval value Treselection, whose value ranges
between 0 and 31 seconds.•Only when a cell was ranked Treselection seconds better then the serving cell, a cell reselection
to this cell takes place.
•In addition to this, a UE must camp at least 1 second on a serving cell, before the next cell re-
selection may take place.

CPICH Setting
• DL Common control channels must be heard over the whole cell, thus their power setting is designed
for “cell edge”.
• Most of Common Channels do not have a power control.
• The power of the common physical channels are set relative to the CPICH
• Setting the DL Common Control Channel Power is a trade off between:
• cell coverage: all the channels must be decoded at the cell edge
• cell capacity: the common channel power consume resources from the traffic channels
Pilot coverage
P-CCPCHcoverage In this example the mobile "sees"
the cell but cannot access it as itcannot decode the BCH

CPICH Setting
• By default the CPICH consumes 2 W of the Node B power for 20 W PA or 4 W for 40 W
PA around 10% of PA
• For optimization purposes, CPICH setting must consider the balance path loss and trade
off between overage and capacity

UL Admission ControlParameters
• When the non-controllable part of the cell load exceeds the target limit, AC will reject
those RAB establishment requests that would mean immediate UL load increase (i.e. RT
services) (not true for WPS call)
• The packet scheduler is responsible on handling the NRT bearer
• When load is too high bit rates are decreased etc.
• When the PrxTarget level hasbeen exceeded
• it is possible for the AC/PS to
admit NRT services (AC)• it is possible to schedule(allocate) bitrate for NRTservices
• bitrate (load) increase for NRTis not possible

DL Admission ControlDL Cell Load Admission Criteria Thresholds
• For the RB to be established (non streaming service requests) the increase of the non-
controllable load Ptx_nc is estimated on the basis of the measured
• Then the estimated non-controllable DL power is compared against the threshold
• If the equation is NOT satisfied then the RAB can NOT be admitted!

Admission Control in Case of Congestion
• Congestion can happen in UTRAN logical and physical resources
• Radio resources (uplink interference, DL power)
• Spreading code
• BTS hardware
• Iub, Iur transmission resources
• RNC HW capacity
• In the first four cases, forced data rate downgrades or releases can be applied to arrange capacity for
an arriving resource request, the available features are
• RT over NRT feature
• RT RAB pre-emption
RT NRT

RT over NRT
• Establishment of a conversational or streaming (RT) RAB requires that resources from the NRT are
removed
• Triggered by
• Resource request for an RT RAB
• Resource request for an RRC connection setup to establish RT RAB or signalling
• IE establishment cause of the RRC Connection Request message is "Registration",
"Detach", "Originating High Priority Signaling", "Terminating High Priority Signalling", "Inter-
RAT cell re-selection", "Inter-RAT cell change order", "Originating Conversational Call",
"Terminating Conversational Call", "Originating Streaming Call", "Terminating StreamingCall" or "Terminating - cause unknown"
• Actions
• Downgrade NRT RAB/DCH resources
• Target RAB
• RAB with highest maximum bit rate

RT RAB Pre-emption
• RT RAB pre-emption is triggered when it is not possible to establish a prioritised RAB without
releasing lower priority real time (RT) bearers
• Triggered by
• Prioritised RAB
• Allocation/Retention Priority: “may trigger pre-emption”
• By default in Nokia CN only emergency calls
• Resource request for an RRC connection setup to establish emergency call
• IE establishment cause of the RRC Connection Request message is “Emergency call”
• Actions
• Release the DCH allocation of the target RAB
• Target
• Pre-emption vulnerability indicator of the RAB attribute Allocation/Retention priority is set to "pre-
emptable“ Default all calls but not emergency calls
• RABs with lower Allocation/Retention priority level

Soft Handover
• SHO UE connect to more than one cells (active set)
• Supported Event in SHO : Event 1a (Addition). Event 1b (Deletion), Event 1C (Replacement)\
• 1A and 1B reporting range is defined by strongest active set cell
• 1C reporting range is defined by weakest active set cell
• Handover decision performed by RNC based on measurements and available resources
• Admission Control can reject the branch addition in case the maximum load is achieved in DL(threshold + offset), valid both for RT and NRT bitrates.
• Hard blocking may prevent branch addition
• The Handover measurement is based on CPICH Ec/Io

• RNC starts IF/IS measurement when event 1F occurs for all cells in the active set: A
Primary CPICH becomes less than an absolute threshold
• RNC stops IF/IS measurement when event 1E occurs for at least one cell of the active set: A Primary CPICH becomes better than an absolute threshold
• Note: Without ISHO Cancellation Feature, IF/IS measurements can be stopped if
event 1Fs are cancelled by events 1E only when IFHO/ISHO was not successful and
only inside the time for CM measurements, specified by the
parameters FMCI:InterFreqMinMeasInterval,FMCG:GsmMinMeasInterval default 2s.
• With the feature, ISHO cancellation is still possible after target cell selection
• Filtering applied before event evaluation in the UE:
• FMCS: EcNoFil terCoeff icient/ HHoRscpFil terCoeff icient = 200ms filtering period

• After HO triggering message is sent to RNC, a RRC message ”Measurement Control” is
sent to UE containing details of the measurement that the UE must execute. Measurement
reporting is periodical. Max 6 IF/GSM cells could be measured by UE and reported toRNC. No filtering in measurements by UE
• Upon reception of the measurements reported by the UE, RNC applies a sliding averaging
window to the RXLEV measurements. The averaged levels are used as input to the IS-HO
decision algorithm.

1. Quality Criterion in case trigger was DL DPCH Power or CPICH Ec/No:• Signal level from new cell > required Signal level in new cell + adjustment due to allowed power
AVE_RSCP_NCELL (n) > Ad jiMinRSCP(n) + max(0, Ad jiTxPw rDPCH(n) - P_MAX)
• EcNo on new cell better than EcNo in old cell + margin
AVE_EcNo_NCELL (n) > AVE_CPICH_EcNo + Ad jiEcNoMargin(n)
2. Pathloss Criterion in case trigger was UE Tx Power, CPICH RSCP or UL DPCH
Quality: • EcNo on new cell better than required EcNo in new cell (default –14 dB)
AVE_EcNo_NCELL (n) > AdjiMinEcNo(n)
• PathLoss in old cell > PathLoss in new cell + Margin (default 2 dB)

The following conditions have to be satisfied, before an inter-system Handover can be conducted. The
best neighboring cell must fulfil following criterion („best“ according to Ec/No):
AVE_RXLEV_NCell(n)
> AdjgRxLevMinHO(n) + max(0, AdjgTxPwrMaxTCH(n) - P_max) where
AVE_RXLEV _Ncell(n) is the averaged GSM carrier RSSI value of the GSM neighbor
cell(n), averaging done directly from dBm values (no linear averaging); FMCG:
GSMMeasAveWindow / 6, 1…32 meas report.
AdjgRxLevMinHO(n) determines the minimum Required RSSI (dBm) level of the neighbor
cell(n).
AdjgTxPwrMaxTCH(n) indicated the maximum Tx power level (dBm) an UE may use in
GSM neighbor cell(n).
P_MAX is the maximum UE power capability.
• If several GSM cells fulfil the equation above, cells are ranked based on HOPG:AdjgPrior i tyCoverage/0 , range 0…7
• A cell is ranked higher than another cell if it has a higher priority level even though its signal
strength condition was worse
