Wcdma Congestion Analysis Abstract › Technology: WCDMA › Service Function: Optimization › Standard Process: Congestion Analysis (CE, DL Power, Code, Iub) › Congestion Types  Channel Element(CE) Congestion(DL/UL)  DL Power Congestion  Code Congestion  Iub Congestion 2 (46) 2010-03-05 Overview  In UMTS the radio resource management functions are jointly handled in two different protocol layers, the Radio Resource Control (RRC) and the Medium Access Control (MAC). Congestion control functions are performed in the RRC layer. Therefore congestion control requires strong interactions between the radio interface protocol layers, including measurement reports which are transmitted, as well as reconfiguration procedures. In a simulation environment different radio resource reconfiguration procedures are evaluated for congestion control.  Congestion control is to ensure network stability and achieve a reasonably fair distribution of the network resources amongst the users. The main objective of this audit is to identify the cells contributing towards congestion and may in turn impact the Accessibility KPIs. Congestion Check is performed at cluster level on weekly basis. 3 (46) 2010-03-05 Methodology › For Congestion Check below is the standard flow for various resources utilized in the system: › › Extract pmdata for the specific counters related to the various radio resources in use in the system. Counters for each resource are specified in the sections to follow. › Identify the cells where resource shortage is seen based on the daily trend of the relevant counters. Ideally 15 days trend to be considered. › Extract XML dump for RNC from OSS Common Explorer Utility. › Parse XML dump using NEPA & export the MO class containing the relevant parameter/network configuration to be optimized for improved resource utilization in Excel format. › Provide parameter modification for relevant parameters in line with customer (Orange France) guidelines. 4 (46) 2010-03-05 Main Affected Accessibility KPI’s due to Congestion: 5 (46) 2010-03-05 Types of Resource Congestions Checked: DL Transmitted Carrier Power DL Channelization Code UL / DL HW (CE) FAILURE AFTER ADM Iub 6 (46) 2010-03-05 Main Counters for the Congestion Analysis per resource required: 7 (46) 2010-03-05 1. DL Power Congestion › WCDMA Networks TCP (Tx Carrier Power) is always an important resource. Available RBS Downlink TCP is limited by MCPA capability (20W, 30W & 40 W) › › FAILURE Counters: – RRC : pmNoRrcReqDeniedAdmDlPwr – RAB : pmNoFailedRabEstAttemptLackDlPwr › › CRITERIA: – ADMISSION REJECTION : Power > pwradm – CONGESTION REJECTION : Power > pwradm+pwroffset › › Action: – Check and align the Power parameters & DL attenuation parameters. – Increase the value for pwrAdm+ pwrOffset and could be less than 95% – Optimize the parametrs minPwrRl, minPwrMax, interPwrMax, maxPwrMax, maximumTransmissionPower. – If other carrier cell is not congested then share traffic by Qoffset (Idle mode). – If other carrier is congestion also, then check neighbor cells and try to off load traffic by reducing Qoffset values. – Do physical optimization incase of overshooting 8 (46) 2010-03-05 2. DL Code Congestion › WCDMA Code tree is considered as one of the important Resource. › Sample Code Tree Usage FAILURE Counters: RRC : pmNoRrcReqDeniedAdmDlChnlCode RAB : pmNoFailedRabEstAttemptLackDlChnlCode CRITERIA: ADMISSION REJECTION : code > dlcodeadm Action: Increase dlCodeAdm. Reduce the SRB Value from 13.6 to 3.4 [Parameter – standaloneSRBselector] Reduce the values for sf4Adm, sf8Adm, sf16Adm to free codes for other users. 9 (46) 2010-03-05 3. Channel Element (CE) Congestion(UL/DL): › CE is short for Channel Element and is a measure of board capacity and radio bearer (RB) capacity cost. › Uplink CE is offered by RAXB and downlink CE is offered by TXB. › CE is also controlled by LICENSE. › Both EUL and R99 are consumed CE resource. The table in the right shows the CE consumption of services. When the consumption reaches the Max, the CE congestion is triggered. › To expand the CE recourse, we can get more license permission. If limited usage either, more hardware is required. 10 (46) 2010-03-05 a. UL CE Congestion › FAILURE Counters: – RRC : pmNoFailedRabEstAttemptLackUlHwBest – RAB : pmNoFailedRabEstAttemptLackUlHW › CRITERIA: – ADMISSION REJECTION : CE Usage > Available CEs in DUW › Action: – Check availableRbsChannelElementsUplink & licenseCapacityRbsChannelElementsUplink to align with customer specified license capacity. – Rejection in only one DUW (out of available two DUWs) - Tune the ulLicFractBbPool2 based on the CE Utilization – Recommend for CE addtion. – Reduce the values for sf4AdmUl, sf8AdmUl, sf16AdmUl. – Switch off the 2ms TTI for EUL eulServingCellUsersAdmTti2. – Increase UlHwAdm. 11 (46) 2010-03-05 b.
