WCDMA Block Coding - CRC

Block coding is used to detect if there are any uncorrected
errors left after error correction.

The cyclic redundancy check (CRC) is a common method of
block coding.
Adding the CRC bits is done before the channel encoding and
they are checked after the channel decoding.
All rights reserved
WCDMA Channel Coding

Effect
Enhance the correlation among symbols so as to recover the signal when

interference occurs
Provides better error correction at receiver, but brings increment of the delay

WCDMA Interleaving
Effect
Interleaving is used to reduce the probability of consecutive bits error

Longer interleaving periods have better data protection with more delay

Process gain differs for each service.
If the service bit rate is greater, the process gain is smaller,
UE needs more power for this service, then the coverage of
this service will be smaller, vice versa.

Purpose of Channelization Code

Channelization code is used to distinguish different physical
channels of one transmitter

For downlink, channelization code ( OVSF code ) is used to
separate different physical channels of one cell
For uplink, channelization code ( OVSF code ) is used to
separate different physical channels of one UE
All rights reserved
Purpose of Scrambling Code

Scrambling code is used to distinguish different transmitters
For downlink, scrambling code is used to separate different

cells in one carrier
For uplink, scrambling code is used to separate different
UEs in one carrier
All rights reserved
Scrambling Code
Scrambling code: GOLD sequence.
There are 224 long uplink scrambling codes which are used for
scrambling of the uplink signals. Uplink scrambling codes are assigned

by RNC.
For downlink, 512 primary scrambling codes are used.

Logical Channel = information container
Defined by <What type of information> is transferred

Transport Channel = characteristics of transmission
Described by <How> and with <What characteristics> data is

transmitted over the radio interface

Physical Channel
A physical channel is defined by a specific carrier frequency, code
(scrambling code, spreading code) and relative phase.

In UMTS system, the different code (scrambling code or spreading
code) can distinguish the channels.

Most channels consist of radio frames and time slots, and each radio
frame consists of 15 time slots.

UE uses PSC to acquire

slot synchronization to a
cell
UE uses SSC to find frame

synchronization and identify the
code group of the cell found in the
first step
UE determines the primary
scrambling code through correlation
over the PCPICH with all codes
within the identified group, and then
detects the P-CCPCH and reads BCH

Random Access Procedure
START
Choose a RACH sub channel from

available ones
Get available signatures
Set Preamble Retrans Max
Set Preamble_Initial_Power
No AI
Choose a access slot again
Choose a signature and
increase preamble transmit power
Send a preamble
Get negative AI
Check the corresponding AI

Get positive AI
Increase message part power by
p-m based on preamble power
The counter of preamble retransmit

Subtract 1, Commanded preamble power Send the corresponding message part
increased by Power Ramp Step
