Configuring HSUPA UL Interference Cancellation

This section describes how to activate, verify, and deactivate the optional feature WRFD-010691 HSUPA UL
Interference Cancellation.

Prerequisites
Dependencies on Hardware
Dependencies on BSC6900 Hardware
This feature does not have any special requirements for hardware.
Dependencies on NodeB Hardware
The BTS3812E or BTS3812AE must be configured with the EULPd board,
the downlink service cannot be estabilished on HBBI/HDLP/NDLP, and the
IC effect cannot be shared between BB boards.
The DBS3800 must be configured with the EBBCd board and the IC effect
can be shared between the BB boards.
The 3900 series base stations must be configured with the WBBPd or
WBBPf board, and only if slot 2 or 3 is configured with at least one WBBPd
or WBBPf board, IC effect can be shared between the WBBPd or WBBPf
boards.
WBBPd/WBBPf is needed for 3900 series NodeB to support HSUPA UL
Interference Cancellation. If the inter-board sharing IC need to be supported,
the WBBPd/WBBPf should be configured in the UL resource pool which
used for inter-board sharing IC, and at least 1 WBBPd/WBBPf should be
configured in slot 2 or 3.

License
The license controlling this feature has been activated. For details on how to activate the
license, see Activating the UMTS License. For details about license items, see Feature
Activation and License Item Descriptions.

Context

CAUTION:
Activate this feature when the traffic volume in a cell is low. The reason is that the cell must be deactivated
before this feature is activated; after the cell is deactivated, the services in this cell are disrupted.
Interference Cancellation (IC) is performed to cancel the interference caused by the uplink high rate E-DPDCH
data of other users, improving the demodulation signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and increasing the uplink capacity
of the UMTS network.
NOTE:
For 3900 series base stations, the WBBPd/WBBPf must be configured on slot 2 or slot 3 on the
BBU3900 to support the uplink data IC integrated interference cancellation function. The uplink
resource group must contain the WBBPd/WBBPf. Therefore, cell of the group can support the IC
feature. For details, see Adding a Baseband Board to a 3900 Series Base Station.
If the DBS3800 is configured with two EBBCd boards, it is recommended that two uplink resource

groups be allocated to the two boards separately. In this way, both the boards support HSUPA
uplink interference cancellation. For details about how to configure the active and standby BTSs,
see Adding an EBBC or EBBCd.
If the BTS3812E or BTS3812AE is configured with two EULPd boards, it is recommended that two
uplink resource groups be allocated to the two boards separately. In this way, both the boards
support HSUPA uplink interference cancellation. For details about how to configure the active and
standby BTSs, see Adding a Baseband Board to the BTS3812E or BTS3812AE.

Procedure
Activation Procedure
1. If the UMTS cell has been activated, run the BSC6900 MML command DEA UCELL
(CME single configuration: UMTS Cell Configuration Express > Cell Basic
Information > Cell Basic Information. Set Validation indication to Deactivated;
CME batch modification center: Modifying UMTS Cell Parameters in Batches) to
deactivate the cell.
2. Run the NodeB MML command MOD LOCELL (CME single configuration: NodeB
Configuration Express > IUB_NodeB > Radio Layer > xx Sector > Locell; CME
batch modification center: Modifying Physical NodeB Parameters in Batches) to modify
the local cell. In this step, set IC to TRUE.
3. Run the BSC6900 MML command ACT UCELL (CME single configuration: UMTS Cell
Configuration Express > Cell Basic Information > Cell Basic Information. Set
Validation indication to Activated; CME batch modification center: Modifying UMTS
Cell Parameters in Batches) to activate the cell.
4. Run the NodeB MML command SET RESALLOCRULE (CME single configuration:
NodeB Configuration Express > IUB_NodeB > Basic Information > Radio
Management > RESALLOCRULE; CME batch modification center: not supported). In
this step, set Auto Rebuild Cell Switch to ON(ON) and set Cs User Number
Threshold and Ps User Number Threshold. If the number of CS users or the number
of PS CELL_DCH users in the downlink resource group is equal or smaller than the
corresponding threshold, the local cells are reestablished automatically.
Verification Procedure
1. Run the NodeB MML command DSP LOCELL to query the status of a specified local
cell.
Expected result: The value of IC MODE is ENABLED.
2. Run the NodeB MML command LST RESALLOCRULE.
Expected result: The value of Auto Rebuild Cell Switch is ON.
3. Select Service > Realtime Specific Monitoring > Cell RTWP from the navigation tree
in Maintenance tab on NodeB LMT, as shown in Figure 1. The column 1-3 indicates
the state of this feature disabled, the column 1-4 indicates the state of this feature
enabled. If the value of column 1-4 is less than the value of column 1-3, it indicates the
feature has been enabled.

Deactivation Procedure
1. Run the NodeB MML command MOD LOCELL (CME single configuration: NodeB
Configuration Express > IUB_NodeB > Radio Layer > xx Sector > Locell; CME
batch modification center: Modifying Physical NodeB Parameters in Batches) to modify
the local cell. In this step, set IC to FALSE.

Example
//Activation procedure
DEA UCELL: CellId=1;
MOD LOCELL: LOCELL=1, SECT=LOCAL_SECTOR, IC_MODE=TRUE;
ACT UCELL: CellId=1;
SET RESALLOCRULE: SW=ON, CSUSERNUM=0, PSUSERNUM=0;
//Verification procedure
DSP LOCELL: LOCELL=1;
LST RESALLOCRULE:;
//Deactivation procedure
MOD LOCELL: LOCELL=1, SECT=LOCAL_SECTOR, IC_MODE=FALSE;
