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.
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
 Types
 Convolutional Coding (1/2, 1/3)

WCDMA Interleaving
 Effect
 Interleaving is used to reduce the probability of consecutive bits error
 Longer interleaving periods have better data protection with more delay

bit rate
 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.
Spreading Technology
 Spreading consists of 2 steps:
 Channelization operation, which transforms data symbols into chips
 Scrambling operation is applied to the spreading signal
Data Chips after

symbol spreading
channelization scrambling
WCDMA Channelization Code
 OVSF Code (Orthogonal Variable Spreading Factor) is used as
channelization code
Cch,8,0 = (1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1)
Cch,4,0 = (1,1,1,1)
Cch,8,1 = (1,1,1,1,-1,-1,-1,-1)
Cch,2,0 = (1,1)
Cch,8,2 = (1,1,-1,-1,1,1,-1,-1)

WCDMA Channelization Code

 High data rates → low SF code
 Low data rates → high SF code
Radio bearer SF Radio bearer SF

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
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.
Purpose of Scrambling Code
 Scrambling code is used to distinguish different transmitters
