A Practical Guide
Introduction
This presentation is not a technical document, but
more of a practical guide of how deal with 3G/LTE
Capacity and Congestion. Including
Types of Congestion
How to Monitor Capacity Resources
Basic Capacity Features (CAC, LDR etc)
Monitoring and Identifying Capacity Issues
Current Techniques Used to Optimize Capacity
Suggestions for Future Trials and Network
Strategy
Capacity Resources
There are 4 Separate Capacity
Resources to monitor in UMTS
Power
Code
Baseband Resources (CE)
Iub Resources
DL Power
Most Cells are set with a MaxTxPower of
43dBm/20W
After Pilot (typically 10%) and common
channels, the rest of available power is
used to carry traffic
As Traffic increases, so does the power
requirement
When available power runs out, there is a
risk of call drop as power is not available
to maintain Ec/No
UL Power
UL Power in normal circumstances is a
measure of the RTWP being received
We use a Equivalent User Number as
the algorithm for measuring UL Load
Currently MaxULUserNumber is set to
160
DL Codes
Channelisation Codes are a Cell level
resource and are Allocated to users
from the Code Tree depending on
Service
HSDPA can use up to 15 Codes should
they not be currently used by R99
Services
Iub Resource
Iub resource is the number of installed
E1s or the size of the configured IP

Total Power
MaxTxPower
Default = 43 dBm according to license
By the way, CPICH power + common channel will consume around 10%
of total cell power.

Load Re-Shuffling
LDR Actions
In LDR State, the cell will take the following Actions on its
traffic in attempt to reduce load.
It will perform the first action on defined number of RABs
and re-assess. If cell is still in LDR state, it will repeat the
first action until it fails, before moving to the second action
