As the UMTS networks are rolled out, the demand for high
bandwidth services is expected to grow rapidly.
By 2010, 66% of the revenues will come from data services
(source: UMTS forum).
Release 99/4 systems alone will not be capable to meet these
demands. (Realistic outdoor data rates will be limited to
384kbps).
A more spectral efficient way of using DL resources is required.

HS-DSCH for a given UE belongs to only one of the radio links assigned to
the UE (serving HS-DSCH cell)
The UE uses soft handover for the uplink, the downlink DCCH and any
simultaneous CS voice or data
Using existing triggers and procedures for the active set update
(events 1A, 1B, 1C)
Hard handover for the HS-DSCH, i.e.
Change of Serving HS-DSCH Cell within active set
