LTE User UL Throughput Enhancement in Nokia system

By -

Issue :-  During day time intermittent data connection lost with poor data experience specially in Zoom Calls/MS Team / CISCO Webex 



Analysis :-


vCell KPI stats were satisfactory in BBH and 24 Hrs in DL
vWhen cell KPIs checked in 15min interval it was observed that at some instant high UL demand with UL PRB riches to  95% from 40%-50% with slight poor SINR and BLER

vAs UL demand and user were high as expected target for BLER were not meeting result more retransmission



Solution:-


vThere were defined fixed target UL BLER on cell level with initial MCS allocation from 4 onward
vWe decided to make UL target BLER dynamic as depend upon cell scenario with two step process

              Set1:- actUlDynamicTargetBler = True    Set2:- actUlDynamicTargetBler = True&& iniMCSUL=6



Result:-


vBoth Set has given good result dominated by Set2 for trails on 10 sites
vFinal trail done for 1180 FDD cells with many KPIs improvement, TDD inline
vVoice/Data traffic were intact in 12 days observation
vCells with UL TP<100Kbps reduced  by 39.25% where as Cells with UL TP<200Kbps reduced by 19.35%
vCCE Blocking reduced by 25.84% where as SPE increased by 1.7%
vCell with DL TP<1Mbps reduced by 11.49%

vComplain on same set of cells reduced by 13.33%

Pa Pb in LTE and its impact on User Throughput

Downlink signals are  made up of many different components. For example, Reference Signal, PDCCH, PDSCH etc. The RS power and the SCH powers are key RF optimization parameters that influences the cell coverage. It is set according to the cell size. The higher the setting, the larger the cell coverage  on the downlink, but leaves smaller power headroom available for other downlink signals  and channels. The relation between RS power and power on PDSCH symbols (includes type A and type B symbols), has to be defined and reported to the UE, in order for the UE to demodulate 16QAM and 64QAM.1 PDSCH type A symbols has only PDSCH RE’s, PDSCH type B symbols has mixed RS and PDSCH REs. Parameter PA sets the power of PDSCH type A RE relative to cell‐specific RS, PB sets the power relation between PDSCH type B RE, and PDSCH type A RE (ρB/ρA in 3GPP). The ratio of PDSCH EPRE to cell‐specific RS EPRE among PDSCH REs for each OFDM  symbol is denoted by either ρA or ρB according to the OFD

LTE Layer management Strategy and basic working [LMS] Unlock

LMS Insight Layer Management Parameter Optimization is important aspect & it is triggered when all possible optimization techniques for ensuring best experience to customers is exhausted in the current layer For Example in a typical 3 Layered cellular network, we have LTE layer (with a mix of TDD(2.5GHz) and FDD(1.8GHz)), followed by WDCMA Layer (WCDMA2100) & then the GSM layer (1800 MHz Before actually working on Layer Management Parameter Optimization, we need to ensure Traffic Balancing within the layers is proper & as per recommendations to give desired customer experience Pre-requisite Actions Ensure below checks before moving to optimize the Layer Management Thresholds for a cell. Traffic balancing within layers should be optimal -  if network has 2 layers of LTE i.e. both TDD-20 MHz & FDD-5 MHz, Traffic distribution for collocated cells with TDD/FDD should be 75:25 (TDD: FDD) or better. This is applicable to networks with 2 carriers of WCDMA as well where the tra
