WCDMA RAN
2 Overview
Overview
CE resources are a type of NodeB hard resource. The number of CEs supported by a NodeB
indicates the channel demodulation capabilities of the NodeB. The more CEs a NodeB supports,
the more powerful the channel demodulation and service processing capabilities.
Services at different rates require different numbers of CEs to ensure proper channel
demodulation.
In a RAN, CE resources are managed by both the RNC and NodeB, as shown in Figure 2-1.
The NodeB reports its CE capacity to the RNC. The RNC determines whether to admit a new
service based on the number of CEs that need to be consumed and controls CE resources during
CE congestion. This ensures the proper use of CE resources. The NodeB dynamically manages
CE resources and rapidly adjusts the number of CEs that can be consumed based on the actual
service rate. This increases CE resource usage.
In RAN14.0, CE overbooking is introduced. When NodeB credit resources are insufficient
during UE access and the uplink HSUPA throughput is low, this feature can improve the
admission capability of RNC credit resources and therefore allow more UEs to be admitted to
a NodeB. It also can enable more UEs to use the 2 ms transmission time interval (TTI), increasing
the UE throughput.

A proper use of CE resources increases the number of UEs that can be admitted and improves
the service quality of the admitted UEs.

3 Technical Description
Technical Description
3.1 Basic Concepts

3.1.1 CE
CE is a basic unit that measures the channel demodulation capabilities of a NodeB. CEs are
classified into uplink (UL) CEs and downlink (DL) CEs.
l
One UL CE needs to be consumed by a UL 12.2 kbit/s voice service (SF = 64) plus 3.4
kbit/s signaling.
One DL CE needs to be consumed by a DL 12.2 kbit/s voice service (SF = 128) plus 3.4
kbit/s signaling.
If only 3.4 kbit/s signaling traffic is carried on a DCH or HSPA channel, one CE still needs to
be consumed. The number of CEs that need to be consumed by services of other types can be
calculated by analogy.
The number of UL and DL CEs supported by a NodeB is determined by the NodeB hardware
capabilities and the licensed CE capacity. The number of UL and DL CEs supported by the
NodeB hardware is called the physical CE capacity. The licensed CE capacity may differ from
the physical CE capacity. The smaller determines the number of CEs that can be used by an
operator.
CE is a concept of the NodeB side. On the RNC side, it is called NodeB credit. The RNC performs
admission and congestion control based on the NodeB credit. In the UL, the number of NodeB
credit resources is twice that of CEs. In the DL, the number of NodeB credit resources equals
that of CEs.
3.1.2 CE Sharing in a Resource Group

To facilitate baseband resource management, NodeB baseband resources fall into UL and DL
resource groups. The UL and DL resource groups are independent with each other. Figure
3-1 describes the UL and DL resource groups.

WCDMA RAN
Figure 3-1 UL and DL resource groups
NOTE
The BTS3803E/BTS3902E is an integrated small-cell base station in which the uplink resources and
downlink resources form respective resource groups by default without manual configuration.
UL Resource Group
As shown in Figure 3-1:
l
Multiple baseband boards can be added to one uplink resource group.

A WBBPf4 board can be added to two uplink resource groups. A baseband board of other
type can only be added to one uplink resource group.
A baseband board in the BTS3812AE, BTS3812E, or DBS3800 can be added to an
uplink resource group by running the ADD ULGROUP command.
A baseband board in the 3900 series base station, BTS3902E, or BTS3803E can be
added to an uplink resource group by running the ADD BASEBANDEQM command.
Multiple cells can use the uplink CE resources in one uplink resource group.
The ULGROUPNO parameter specifies the uplink resource group whose uplink CE
resources can be used by a cell under the BTS3812AE, BTS3812E, or DBS3800. The
ULBASEBANDEQMID parameter specifies the uplink resource group whose uplink CE
resources can be used by a cell under the 3900 series base station, BTS3902E, or BTS3803E.
One cell can use the uplink CE resources in only one uplink resource group.
NOTE
Add intra-frequency cells to the same uplink resource group to make softer handovers feasible.
UEs under a cell served by an uplink resource group can occupy the resources of any baseband
board in the group. That is, UEs under a cell served by an uplink resource group share the CE
resources of all baseband boards in the group.

WCDMA RAN
The physical CE capacity of an uplink resource group is the sum of physical CE capacities of
all baseband boards in the group.
DL Resource Group
From RAN14.0 onwards, 3900 series base stations (excluding the BTS3902E) support CE
resource sharing among the baseband boards in a downlink resource group. The DBS3800,
BTS3812AE, and BTS3812E support CE resource sharing within a baseband board.
As shown in Figure 3-1:
l
Multiple baseband boards can be added to one downlink resource group.

One baseband board can only be added to one downlink resource group. A baseband
board in the BTS3812AE, BTS3812E, or DBS3800 can be added to a downlink resource
group by running the ADD DLGROUP command.
A baseband board in the 3900 series base station, BTS3902E, or BTS3803E can be
added to a downlink resource group by running the ADD BASEBANDEQM command.
Multiple cells can be configured for one downlink resource group.

The DLGROUPNO parameter specifies the downlink resource group whose downlink CE
resources can be used by a cell under the BTS3812AE, BTS3812E, or DBS3800. The
DLBASEBANDEQMID parameter specifies the downlink resource group whose
downlink CE resources can be used by a cell under the 3900 series base station, BTS3902E,
or BTS3803E. One cell can use the downlink CE resources in only one downlink resource
group.
NOTE
You are advised to add all baseband boards to the same downlink resource group.
UEs under a cell served by a downlink resource group can occupy the resources of any baseband
board in the group. That is, UEs under a cell served by a downlink resource group share the CE
resources of all baseband boards in the group. The amount of CE resources of a downlink
resource group that can be used for a cell are limited by the hardware capability of the baseband
board where the cell is set up. The details are as follows:

The example is as follows:

A WBBPb3 board and a WBBPb4 board are configured for one downlink resource group, among
which the cell (named cell1) served by F1 in the downlink resource group is configured on the
WBBPb3 board, and the cell (named cell2) served by F2 in the downlink resource group is
configured on the WBBPb4 board, as shown in Figure 3-2.
l
Cell1 can use 384 CE resources of the downlink resource group at most.
Cell2 can use 384 CE resources of the downlink resource group at most.
Cell1 and cell2 can simultaneously use 640 CE resources of the downlink resource group
at most, which are equal to or smaller than the total number of the CE resources on the
WBBPb3 board and WBBPb4 board.
Figure 3-2 Downlink resource group
NOTE
The WBBPa board cannot share CE resources with other types of baseband boards.
If a baseband board in a downlink resource group becomes unavailable (such as board failure), the UEs
served by cells set up on the baseband board and the UEs occupying the CE resources of the baseband
board will experience call drops.
You are advised to run the SET NODEBRESALLOCRULE command with the SW parameter
set to ON to enable the automatic cell rehoming function. With this function, the NodeB
automatically implements cell rehoming among the baseband boards during off-peak hours if
the following conditions are met:
l
The NodeB detects that the CE resources of a baseband board are insufficient for CE
sharing.
In the downlink resource group, the number of online CS users is less than or equal to
CSUSERNUM and the number of online PS users is less than or equal to
PSUSERNUM.
This function enables the UEs to be evenly distributed among the baseband boards in a downlink
resource group.

WCDMA RAN
The RNC reports EVT-28202 Local Cell Rebuild once automatic cell rehoming is implemented.
Setting both CSUSERNUM and PSUSERNUM to 0 prevents call drops caused by automatic
cell rehoming.
3.1.3 NodeB CE Capacity Specifications

Different baseband boards of a NodeB have their own CE capacity specifications. For detailed
CE capacity specifications supported by each type of baseband board, see the BBU3900
Hardware Description in the WCDMA NodeB Product Documentation.
CE capacity here refers to the number of CEs that can be consumed by UL and DL R99 services
and HSUPA services. It does not include CE resources reserved by the NodeB for common and
HSDPA channels.
3.2 Rules for Calculating CE Consumption

Introduction
The RNC determines the number of CEs required for a service based on the SF that matches the
service rate.
When an RAB connection is set up or released for a service, CE resources must be allocated or
taken back and the number of CEs must be deducted or added accordingly. Different rules for
calculating CE resource consumption apply to channels or services of different types, as shown
in Figure 3-3.
Figure 3-3 Rules for calculating CE resource consumption
CE resources reserved by the NodeB for common and HSDPA channels are shown in gray. CE
resources that need to be consumed by R99 and HSUPA services are shown in orange.
CE Consumption of Common Channels

The NodeB reserves some CE resources for the uplink and downlink common channel. If the
usage of CE resources for the common channel does not exceed the reserved CE resources,
licensed CE resources are not required. If the usage exceeds the reserved CE resources, some
licensed CE resources are consumed for the excess part.

WCDMA RAN
CE Consumption of HSDPA Channels

Similarly, the NodeB reserves CE resources for the high-speed downlink shared channel (HSDSCH) and the related control channels if HSDPA is used. These CEs also do not need to be
considered in the calculation of CE consumption.
Note that the signaling of an HSDPA UE that is not performing an R99 service occupies one
DCH and needs to consume one DL CE. If the SRB over HSDPA function is enabled, the
signaling of an HSDPA service does not consume additional CE resources. For an HSDPA UE
that is performing an R99 service, its signaling and the R99 service occupy the same DCH.
Therefore, only the CEs consumed on R99 traffic channels need to be calculated.
CE Consumption of an R99 Service

For an R99 service, the RNC determines the number of CEs and NodeB credit resources that
need to be consumed based on the SF that matches the maximum bit rate (MBR) of the service.

NOTE
As listed in Table 3-1, the CE consumption at the rate of 3.4 kbit/s or 13.6kbit/s corresponds to the situation
in which only SRBs (without TRBs) are carried during an RRC connection. In other cases, if TRBs are
also carried, CEs consumed are also used for the SRBs that are transmitted at 3.4 kbit/s only.
A UBBPd board in a 4RX scenario uses the same CE consumption rules as a UBBPd board in a 2RX
scenario. The CE consumption rules in 4RX scenarios described in Table 3-1 apply only to the WBBPb,
WBBPd, and WBBPf boards.

NOTE

CE Consumption of an HSUPA Service

For an HSUPA service, the RNC determines the number of CEs and NodeB credit resources
that need to be consumed based on the SF that matches the service rate. The RNC determines
the SF based on a certain rate in the following ways:
l
If the UL enhanced L2 function is disabled and the NodeB indicates in a private information
element (IE) that dynamic CE resource management has been enabled in the cell, the RNC
calculates the SF based on the larger of the bit rate of one RLC PDU and the guaranteed
bit rate (GBR).
NOTE
If the UL enhanced L2 function is disabled, the RLC PDU size is fixed. The bit rate of one RLC PDU is
determined by the RLC PDU size and transmission time interval (TTI).
If the UL enhanced L2 function is enabled and the NodeB indicates in a private IE that
dynamic CE resource management has been enabled in the cell, the RNC calculates the SF
based on the larger of the bit rate of the smallest RLC PDU and the GBR.
NOTE
If the UL enhanced L2 function is enabled, the RLC PDU size is flexible. The bit rate of the smallest RLC
PDU is determined by the minimum RLC PDU size and the TTI. The minimum RLC PDU size can be
specified by the RlcPduMinSizeForUlL2Enhance parameter.
If the NodeB reports that dynamic CE resource management has been disabled, the RNC
calculates the SF based on the MBR.

11
WCDMA RAN
If the NodeB does not report whether dynamic CE resource management has been enabled,
the RNC calculates the SF based on the value of the HsupaCeConsumeSelection parameter
and whether the UL enhanced L2 function is enabled.
If HsupaCeConsumeSelection is set to MBR, the RNC calculates the SF based on the
MBR.
If HsupaCeConsumeSelection is set to GBR:
a. If the UL enhanced L2 function is disabled, the RNC calculates the SF based on the
larger of the bit rate of one RLC PDU and the GBR.
b. If the UL enhanced L2 function is enabled, the RNC calculates the SF based on the
larger of the bit rate of the smallest RLC PDU and the GBR.
After determining the SF, the RNC searches the CE consumption mapping listed in the following
tables for the number of CEs that need to be consumed. Table 3-3, Table 3-4, Table 3-5, and
Table 3-6 describe the uplink CE consumption rules for services carried on the WBBPb,
WBBPd, and WBBPf boards in the 3900 and 3910 series base stations, BTS3902E, and
BTS3803E. Table 3-7, Table 3-8, Table 3-9, and Table 3-10 describe the uplink CE
consumption rules for the BTSS3812AE, BTS3812E, and DBS3800. The 3900 series base
station, BTS3902E, and BTS3803E support WRFD-010212 Improved CE Mapping for E-DCH
and therefore have a higher CE consumption efficiency than the BTS3812AE, BTS3812E, and
DBS3800, which helps maximize operators' investment.

NOTE
l For an HSUPA service, if the SRB over DCH function is enabled, the signaling of the HSUPA service
consumes an additional CE.
l As listed in Table 3-3, the rate in the SF = minSF column indicates the maximum typical rate supported
by the corresponding SF when an HSUPA service is admitted at the MBR, and the rate in the SF >
minSF column indicates the maximum typical rate supported by the corresponding SF when the
HSUPA service is admitted at the max(one RLC PDU bit rate, GBR). For example, if an HSUPA
service is admitted at the MBR, the maximum typical rate supported by SF4 is 608 kbit/s.
l If a rate is not listed in the preceding table, the number of CEs consumed corresponds to the larger rate
specified in the table. For example, in 2RX scenarios, if an HSUPA service is admitted at the MBR of
384 kbit/s, the HSUPA service matches SF4 and consumes 8 CEs and 16 credit resources, which
corresponds to the MBR of 608 kbit/s.
l A UBBPd board in a 4RX scenario uses the same CE consumption rule as a UBBPd board in a 2RX
scenario. The CE consumption rules in 4RX scenarios described in Table 3-3 to Table 3-6 apply only
to the WBBPb, WBBPd, and WBBPf boards.

Examples of CE Consumption
UE A, which performs a UL 64 kbit/s and DL 384 kbit/s service on the DCH, consumes three
UL CEs and eight DL CEs.
UE B, which performs a UL 64 kbit/s and DL 1024 kbit/s service on the DCH and HS-DSCH
respectively, consumes three UL CEs and one DL CE if the DL signaling radio bearer (SRB) is
carried on the DCH.
UE C, which performs a UL 608 kbit/s and DL 1024 kbit/s service on the E-DCH and HS-DSCH
respectively and at the same time performs an AMR speech service, consumes nine UL CEs and
one DL CE.
UE D, which performs a UL 64 kbit/s and DL 1024 kbit/s service on the HS-DCH and HS-DSCH
respectively, consumes four UL CEs and one DL CE if the UL SRB is carried on the E-DCH
and DL SRB is carried on the DCH.
3.3 Admission and Congestion Control Based on CE

Resources
Because CE resources are limited, the RNC needs to perform admission and congestion control
based on CE resources. UL and DL CE resources undergo separate admission and congestion
control.
3.3.1 Admission Control

The RNC admits a service based on NodeB credit resources (called CE resources on the NodeB
side). If the admission fails, preemption and queuing will be triggered.

16
WCDMA RAN
Call Admission
CE resources to be consumed by common channels and HSDPA services are reserved in advance.
Therefore, UEs requesting common or HSDPA channels do not need to be admitted based on
CE resources.
Admission control based on NodeB credit is performed on the RNC side. It mainly applies to
RRC connection requests, handover requests and non-HSDPA services.
Admission based on NodeB credit is optional in resource admission control. This function is
controlled by the switch parameters CacSwitch:NODEB_CREDIT_CAC_SWITCH and
NBMCacAlgoSwitch:CRD_ADCTRL. It is recommended that these two switch parameters
are turned on. If these two switch parameters are turned off, the correctness of the channel
demodulation may not be guaranteed because of excessive user admission.
For the detailed description of admission control based on NodeB credit, see the Call Admission
Control Feature Parameter Description.
Preemption and Queuing Following a Failed Admission

If an admission based on NodeB credit resources fails, preemption and queuing based on NodeB
credit resources will be triggered.
Preemption based on NodeB credit resources is similar to preemption based on other resources.
The RNC releases the NodeB credit resources occupied by one or more low-priority UEs until
the total released NodeB credit resources meet the requirement for the new UE.
If the preemption fails, queuing is implemented to increase the access success rate of the new
UE.
For the detailed description of preemption and queuing, see the Load Control Feature Parameter
Description.
3.3.2 Basic Congestion Control

When the usage of NodeB credit resources in a cell exceeds the threshold for triggering basic
congestion, the cell enters the basic congestion state. In this case, load reshuffling (LDR) is
required to reduce the cell load and increase the access success rate. And the following LDR
actions are likely to be taken:
l
Load-based Inter-Frequency Handover
BE rate reduction
QoS renegotiation for uncontrollable real-time services
Inter-RAT handover in the CS domain
Inter-RAT handover in the PS domain
The sequence of these LDR actions can be set by running the ADD UCELLLDR / ADD
UNODEBLDR command.
For detailed information about LDR triggered by NodeB credit, see the Load Control Feature
Parameter Description.

17
WCDMA RAN
3.4 CE Overbooking
Generally, the RNC reserves a certain amount of credit resources for each admitted UE. To
ensure HSUPA user satisfaction, the RNC reserves more credit resources for HSUPA UEs with
a 2 ms TTI. When the total amount of reserved credit resources exceeds a specified threshold,
the RNC rejects new UE access attempts. However, the actual CE usage of the NodeB is low.
This is because uplink throughput is low in most cases due to the high penetration rate of smart
phones.
To increase the CE usage on the NodeB side and enhance the RNC's capability to perform
admission control based on credit resource usage, you can use the CE Overbooking feature. With
this feature, the NodeB calculates the actual credit resource usage of admitted UEs based on
traffic volume and reports the actual credit resource usage to the RNC through a private interface.
The RNC then performs admission control on new UEs based on the reported credit resource
usage.
For the detailed description of CE overbooking, see the CE Overbooking Feature Parameter
Description.
3.5 Admission-CE-based Dynamic TTI Adjustment

As defined in 3GPP specifications, the minimum SF corresponding to an HSUPA UE with 2 ms
TTI is SF4. One HSUPA UE with 2 ms TTI therefore consumes a minimum of eight UL CEs.
Because HSUPA UEs with 2 ms TTI outperform HSUPA UEs with 10 ms TTI, they need to
consume more CEs than the HSUPA UEs with 10 ms TTI. If HSUPA UEs with 2 ms TTI
dominate a cell, fewer UEs can be admitted to the cell.
To prevent this problem, Huawei introduced Admission-CE-based dynamic TTI adjustment.
With this function, when the NodeB credit resources are insufficient, the 2 ms TTI is switched
to the 10 ms TTI to allow more UEs to access the network. When the throughput of the 10 ms
TTI HSUPA UE reaches a certain threshold, the 10 ms TTI needs to be switched to 2 ms TTI
to achieve higher peak rates.
For the detailed description of this function, see the HSUPA TTI Selection Feature Parameter
Description.
3.6 Dynamic CE Resource Management for HSUPA

Although HSUPA improves user experience and increases UL throughput, it greatly increases
the consumption of CE resources due to the use of hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) and
support for soft handovers. If CE resources are allocated fixedly based on the MBR when radio
links are being set up, CE resources will not be taken back even if the actual service rate is much
lower than the MBR. Fixed allocation of CE resources wastes CEs and easily causes a bottleneck
in HSUPA performance. A more energy-saving and efficient allocation method is required.
Dynamic CE resource management for HSUPA services was therefore introduced. With the
dynamic allocation, the NodeB performs initial CE allocation based on the GBR of a UE. Then
the NodeB periodically adjusts CE resources allocated to UEs based on information such as the
user priority and actual rate.

18
WCDMA RAN
For the detailed description of dynamic CE resource management, see the HSUPA Feature
Parameter Description.
3.7 License CE Capacity Alarm

When NodeB CE consumption exceeds a specified threshold of the license CE capacity for a
specified period, the NodeB reports the alarm ALM-26812 System Dynamic Traffic Exceeding
Licensed Limit).
This alarm is cleared when NodeB CE consumption stays below a specified threshold of the
license CE capacity, for example, 90% for a specified period. To configure the CE consumption
thresholds and the duration, run the NodeB command SET NODEBLICENSEALMTHD.
