eICIC
The Evolutive-Inter-Cell
Interference Coordination
(eICIC) feature is used to
coordinate the interference
between macro sites with
extensive coverage and micro
sites that are used to expand the
network coverage. This feature
helps decrease the interference
macro sites place on micro sites.
When the Hertnet networking
method is used, the enhanced
ICIC feature divides downlink
subframes into ABS and nonABS subframes. Macro sites do
not process ABS subframes.
This way, the interference on
micro sites in terms of ABS
subframes is reduced and the
coverage of micro sites is
expanded.

If no USIM is available, use a soft USIM. For details, see section 9.16 "UE Initial Configuration for Soft
USIM."
A USIM does not support hot swapping. Restart the UE after a USIM is inserted or removed.
3. Turn the switch on the back panel of the UE to ON. For details, see section 5.4 "Switching on
the UE."
4. Set the network adapter of the PC to obtain an IP address automatically. For details, see
section 5.5 "Setting the Network Adapter of the PC to Obtain an IP Address Automatically."
5. Install the OMT. For details, see section 5.6 "Installing the OMT."
6. Configure UE authentication information.
If RADIUS authentication is not enabled for the EPC, this step is optional. If RADIUS
authentication is enabled for the EPC, this step is mandatory. For details, see section 9.18
"Configuring UE Authentication Information."
7. Power on the UE for network access. For details, see section 5.7 "Powering on the UE for
Network Access."

9.6 Multitasking
9.6.1 Overview
Multitasking indicates that the UE performs multiple services at the same time, including the
Ping service, UDP service, VoIP service, FTP service, and VOD service.
The demonstration of Multitasking requires the following software: Ser-U (installed on the
FTP server for FTP service demonstration), WS_FTP (for FTP service demonstration), Helix
media server (installed on the VOD server for VOD service demonstration), Microsoft
Portrait (for VoIP service demonstration), Windows Media Player, and NetMeter (for
throughput observation).
When the services performed by the UE require a special transfer service, you can set up a
dedicated bearer to guarantee the service quality. Setup of a dedicated bearer can be initiated
by the network only, but the UE can trigger the network to set up a dedicated bearer.
After receiving the uplink data, the UE needs to select a suitable bearer for transfer of data
services to guarantee the transfer quality. In the Prerequisites that a dedicated bearer is set up,
the UE matches the dedicated bearer according to data services (that is, TFT match). The TFT
Draft A(2013-10-28)
89
LTE UE
User Guide
match items include the IP address, port number, and protocol number. When multiple
dedicated bearers can all be matched successfully, the UE selects the bearer that has the
highest priority to transfer data. If no dedicated bearer meets the data transfer requirement,
you can only select the default bearer for data transfer.

QCI is one of the most important QoS parameters for the EPS bearer. It is a quantity class, indicating the
QoS features that the EPS must provide for the SDF. Each SDF is associated with only one QCI. If
multiple SDFs corresponding to the same IP-CAN session have the same QCI and ARP, they can be
handled as an independent service set, which is called SDF set. Table 7-6 lists the standard QCI
attributes defined by the EPS system. All the QCI attributes can be preset by the carrier on the eNodeB
as required. These parameters determine the allocation of bearer resources.

9.7 PWS
9.7.1 Overview
The PWS(Public Warning System) provides alarms for natural disasters or human error
accidents that may cause loss of lives or properties. PWS messages can be in instant display
or interactive display mode. The display mode is specified in the PWS message. If PWS
messages are in instant display mode, the UE displays the messages in a popup window. If
PWS messages are in interactive display mode, the UE saves the messages in the inbox folder.
The user can manually check messages in the inbox. PWS messages are transmitted using
special coding schemes. The UE supports UCS-2 and GSM 7-bit.
The UE support two warning systems, the ETWS and CMAS.
9.7.2 ETWS
The ETWS(Earthquake and Tsunami Warning System) is a special PWS that provides
alerts for natural disasters, such as earthquakes and tsunamis, and post-disaster relief and
reconstruction. It is an emergency communication system.
Draft A(2013-10-28)
105
LTE UE
User Guide
The ETWS has two basic requirements, delay and security. The propagation velocity of
the earthquake or tsunami is very high, and the warning message must be sent to users at the
first time. Therefore, the delay is highly required. Such a message may cause a large-scale
panic. Therefore, the security is also highly required. The message source is generally
controlled by the government.
The ETWS is proposed by a Japanese telecom operator NTT DOCOMO at a meeting of
the Security Association. In addition, network support for the ETWS is written in Japanese
law and serves as a requirement for admission to the Japanese market. The ETWS is
implemented in 3GPP Rel8, and carries ETWS messages through SIB 10 and SIB 11 of
system information. The ETWS network architecture is shown in Figure 7-84.
Figure a.1 ETWS network architecture
ETWS messages are sent to UEs through SIB 10 and SIB 11. Different from common
system information, ETWS messages fall into Primary Notification (PN) and Secondary
Notification (SN). The PN carries the most important and urgent information and must be sent
to users at the first time, for example, warning message on an earthquake or a tsunami sent
through SIB 10. The SN carries the secondary urgent information, for example, help
information and map sent through SIB 11.
When a natural disaster takes place, the ETWS warning provider sends alerts to the
network. The network then broadcasts ETWS messages to UEs.
9.7.3 CMAS
The CMAS is another special PWS that can simultaneously broadcast multiple alerts.
It enables users of all communication technologies to timely and accurately receive alerts
upon disasters or other emergencies so that they can protect themselves from injuries and
property loss.
Draft A(2013-10-28)
106

CMAS is released in 3GPP Relay 9. CMAS messages are sent using the system

12.1 MIMO
Introduction
The Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) is a technology to receive or send signals at the
receiving or transmitting terminal by using multiple antennas. By using the array gain,
diversity gain, spatial multiplexing gain, and interference suppression gain, the MIMO
improves system coverage and quality, and increases the peak rate. Multiple antennas enable
you to obtain the array gain by changing the direction of antennas. The advantages are as
follows:
The eNodeBs with the application of the MIMO technology have a wider coverage.
When the channel is in poor conditions, the diversity gain provides data backup by using
different antennas to send the same information, so that the data has stronger interference
resistance capability.
When the channel is in good conditions, the spatial multiplexing gain multiplies the data
transmission rate by using different antennas to send different types of data, so that the
peak rate of the system is greatly improved.
Antennas of the UE are located on two panels, namely, front panel and back panel. The front
panel contains two RRU0 ports: a transmit/receive port (RXA1/TX) and a receive port
(RXB1). The back panel contains two RRU1 ports: a transmit/receive port (RXA2/TX) and a
receive port (RXB2). In the MIMO scenario, select a proper antenna configuration for the UE
based on network topology. Take the 2 x 2MIMO networks for example. If the UE antenna
connects to the RXA1/TX and RXB1, select the RRU0 for the 1T2R mode. If the UE antenna
connects to the RXA2/TX and RXB2, select the RRU1 for the 1T2R mode.

12.5 AC Barring
Introduction
The objective of AC Barring is to relieve the impact of eNodeB overload caused by a large
number of UEs' simultaneous access to the network. When an eNodeB is overloaded, the
eNodeB includes information related to AC Barring, such as access probability factor and
access barring duration in system information block 2 (SIB2) based on the access cause (such
as MO Signaling, MO Data, and Emergency) or service type (SSAC_MMTEL_Video,
SSAC_MMTEL_Voice, or CSFB). This ensures that a configurable number of UEs can
smoothly access the network. After a UE receives the access probability factor and access
barring duration, the UE compares the access probability factor with the random number

access probability factor, the UE can access the network. If the RAND is greater than or equal

User Guide
to the access probability factor, the UE cannot access the network for the access barring
duration.
The UE can only distinguish data from signaling but cannot identify the specific service type.
To implement AC Barring in compliance with 3GPP Release 9 and 10 Specifications,
configure the RRC connection setup cause (MO-Data, Voice, Video, or CSFB) for a UE. The
default RRC connection setup cause "MO-Data" applies if the cause is not specified for a UE.
The RRC connection setup cause determines the access control parameter group (acBarringForMO-Data, ssac-BarringForMMTEL-Voice-r9, ssac-BarringForMMTEL-Video-r9,
or ac-BarringForCSFB-r10), and the UE access priority determines whether a UE can access a
cell.
The RAND generated by a UE is uncontrollable. Therefore, a switch for configuring the
RAND is added and the RAND can be configured as required to facilitate testing AC barring
effect.
Prerequisites
The E-UTRAN supports delivering access control parameters in compliance with 3GPP
Release 8, 9 and 10 Specifications.
Procedure
The following describes how to enable access control for voice services.
1. Click the Debug tab on the left pane of the main interface of the OMT.
2. Configure parameters related to AC Barring for a UE as follows: Choose Debug Command >
Access > CFG AC BARRING PARA and double-click. Set RrcConnectReason to Voice
and RandomNumSwitch to OFF.
If RandomNumSwitch is set to OFF, the RAND generated by the UE is used for comparison
with the access probability factor sent by the eNodeB. If RandomNumSwitch is set to ON,
the configured value of RandomNumber is used for comparison with the access probability
factor sent by the eNodeB.

3. Power on the UE. Check that the UE successfully accesses the network and then enters the
idle state.
4. Enable the UE to perform uplink services.

2. The Baseband Capture Data dialog box is displayed. Select a stop condition from the Stop
Condition drop-down list box. For certain stop conditions, you can also set the filtering
condition. When the UE is working in eICIC mode, you can set the aggregation of subframes
for four exception capture items, err CRS RANK1 SINR-CRS AVG SINR, err CRS RANK1
SINR, err CRS RANK2 CW1 SINR, and err CRS RANK2 CW2 SINR. Only the test results
of the specified subframe aggregation are used for abnormality determination.
3. Click Start. The data collection starts.
4. If the stop condition is met, the current frame number and subframe number are displayed in
the sampling information. There are two ways to export data, to export the sampling data with
a specified frame number or to export subframe number, and to export the sampling data of
one frame, as shown in Figure 11-61.
