Multi-carrier Strategy

1 Overview
Chapter 2 provides ZTE multi-carrier strategy, which is used during swap.

Chapter 3 provides multi-carrier strategy of current network, which is implemented by ZTE configuration.

Chapter 4 presents the IOT strategy between ZTE RNC and other vendors without Iur.

In the appendix, the multi-carrier strategy after swap is proposed in section 5.1. The IOT strategy between ZTE RNC and other vendors with Iur is put in section 5.2. During swap, two multi-carrier strategies are provided in chapter 2 and chapter 3, ZTE proposes to use ZTE strategy in chapter 2. Which strategy, in chapter 4 or in chapter 5.2, will be chosen is depended on the test result.

Multi-carrier Strategy

F1, F2 and F3 are all access layer. UE can camp on any of them according to cells signal quality.

2) Load sharing and traffic distribution Since three carriers can support R99+HSPA, the load balance is implemented by inter-frequency cell reselection in idle mode, and there is no service balance.

3) Handover (a) UE can play intra-frequency handover on each layer F1/F2/F3. (b) At the boundary of F2/F3, UE hands over to F1.

4) Iur strategy between ZTE SRNC and ZTE DRNC The intra-frequency and inter-frequency handover strategies via Iur for all kinds of services are shown below.

Figure 3

Multi-carrier operation between 3G and 2G

1) Operation between ZTE F1 and GSM (a) In IDLE mode, when F1 coverage is bad, UE reselects to GSM. When F1 coverage becomes good, UE reselects back to F1. (b) For voice call, when F1 coverage is bad, UE can handover to GSM. When UE finishes its voice call in GSM, it reselects back to ZTE F1 (c) For video call, if both RNC and CN allow video call fallback to CS 12.2k, and UE has this function too, video call can fall back to CS and then hand over to GSM. Otherwise, video call will drop and cannot hand over to GSM. By default, ZTE RNC allow video call fall back to CS. (d) For R99 PS, UE can handover to GSM. R99 PS services can reselect back to F1 when the coverage of F1 is good (e) For HSPA, by ZTE default, HSDPA compressed mode is activated and can go to GSM directly; While HSUPA falls back to DCH, and compressed mode is activated and then goes to GSM. There are two parameters to control that.

Multi-carrier Strategy

The neighboring relations between F1 and GSM, Both GSM900 and GSM1800 exist, F1 configures GSM900 and GSM1800. GSM900 only exist, F1 configures GSM900. GSM1800 only exist, F1 configures GSM1800

2) Operation from ZTE F2/F3 to GSM In some cases, F1 does not have good coverage, so UE need reselect or hand over to GSM.

3.2 Strategy
3.2.1 Operation Intra 3G
1) Camping in idle mode F1 is the access layer. UE can camp on F1 only. F2 and F3 are barred. No UE can access to them. In this case, only F1 works in idle mode.

2) Load sharing and traffic distribution


ZTE Confidential Proprietary 2012 ZTE Corporation. All rights reserved. 14

Multi-carrier Strategy

F1 supports R99+HSPA and it is set as R99 preferred. F2 and F3 support R99+HSPA and they are set as HS preferred.

Since all three carriers support R99+HSPA and F1 is access layer, load balance feature needs to be activated. Due to traffic of R99 and HS are distributed to different carriers, service balance also needs to be used.

In current network, HS redirection happens during RAB assignment. Therefore, during 1st RAB assignment, the behavior of each category of UE on F1 are listed below, When R99 UE initiates voice call or R99 PS, it stays on F1. When R5/R6+ UE initiate CS only, it will be kept on F1. When R5/R6+ UE initiate HS only, it might be moved from F1 to F2/F3 depending on the load of F1/F2/F3. If R5/R6+ UE with HS on F2/F3 initials another CS RAB, the UE with multi-RAB will be kept on F2/F3 and does not handover to F1. If UE releases HS first, then UE with CS only will not be moved to F1 by ZTE default.

This chapter presents the pros and cons of ZTE strategy in chapter 2 and current network strategy in chapter 3.

strategy users, especially, at the airport or co sector F2 and F3 are required to have

redirection (Load/service balance), no impact on user successful access rate and no blind handover call drop 3. Result: number of users on each carrier is almost same. The load is almost balanced on each carrier. 4. This network structure is not

influenced by traffic and UE type changes and can be used in many different situations. For example,

currently, voice is more and PS is less; but in future, voice decreases and PS increases. 5. Use case: several commercial

networks choose it, for example, in Current network Europe and HK. Load can be balanced from F1 to F2 and F3. 1. Idle mode: Since F2 and F3 are barred, only F1 can be used to absorb users. 2. Since F2 and F3 are barred, UE will periodically try to camp on F2/F3 and read F2/F3

Barred. 3. CELL_DCH: During RAB assignment, there is service redirection which is blind handover and will impact inter-frequency call drop rate. 4. If voice is more than PS in current network, F1 might be easy to be

congested and more voice need to be redirected to F2/F3 which increase call drop rate. Moreover, when Voice

redirection occurs and if UEA1 encryption is enabled, water sound occurs.

4.2 Strategy
The strategy between ZTE and Ericsson/HW will use operation without Iur, that is to say, Iur interface is deactivated between ZTE RNC and Ericsson/HW RNC. It should be pointed that strategies below depend on test results. Some in tables might be modified according to test results because it also depends on the software version of other vendors.

Multi-carrier Strategy

F1, F2 and F3 are all access layer. UE can camp on any of them according to cells signal quality.

2) Load sharing and traffic distribution Since three carriers can support R99+HSPA, the load balance is implemented by inter-frequency cell reselection in idle mode, and there is no service balance.

3) Handover (a) UE can play intra-frequency handover on each layer F1/F2/F3. (b) At the boundary of F3, UE hands over to F1, which is as same as that during swap in section 2.2.1.In this way, there is no need to modify inter-frequency neighboring relations. B. Between 3G and 2G Refer to section 2.2.2.
