WCDMA RAN
2 Overview
Overview
2.1 Introduction
When a large number of UEs simultaneously initiate a random access procedure in a cell, the
received total wideband power (RTWP) of this cell becomes extremely high. To reduce the
RTWP in this scenario, Huawei offers Adaptive RACH. Adaptive RACH enables the RNC to
dynamically adjust the settings of random access parameters for a cell based on the uplink power
load and number of acknowledged random accesses in a specified period of time. This feature
can reduce a cell's RTWP and increase its capacity.
2.2 Benefits
When the RTWP of a cell is high due to a large number of random accesses, Adaptive RACH
helps reduce the RTWP by 0.3 dB to 0.5 dB or improve the HSUPA throughput by about 5%.
Issue 01 (2014-04-30)

WCDMA RAN
3 Technical Description
Technical Description
enables the RNC to dynamically adjust the settings of random access parameters based on the
uplink power load and number of acknowledged random accesses. The RNC broadcasts the new
settings of random access parameters to UEs. The random access parameters include the constant
for calculating the initial transmit power, ramping step for random access preambles, and
maximum number of preamble retransmissions.
The RNC measures the number of acknowledged random accesses in a cell when the
ACK_PRACH_PREAM_MEAS check box under the NBMLdcAlgoSwitch
(BSC6900,BSC6910) parameter in the ADD UCELLALGOSWITCH command is selected.
Adaptive RACH is activated when the ADAPTIVE_RACH and
ACK_PRACH_PREAM_MEAS check boxes under the NBMLdcAlgoSwitch
(BSC6900,BSC6910) parameter in the ADD UCELLALGOSWITCH command are selected.
The RNC dynamically adjusts the settings of the random access parameters as follows:
l
When the cell uplink load is greater than or equal to the value of the OptiStartLoadState
parameter and the number of acknowledged random accesses in a cell is greater than or
equal to the value of the RandomAccessCongestThd(BSC6900,BSC6910) parameter, the
RNC broadcasts the optimized settings of random access parameters (OptiConstantvalue
(BSC6900,BSC6910), OptiPowerRampStep(BSC6900,BSC6910), and
OptiPreambleRetransMax(BSC6900,BSC6910)) to UEs.
When the number of acknowledged random accesses is less than or equal to the value of
the RandomAccessClearThd(BSC6900,BSC6910) parameter, the RNC broadcasts the
original settings of random access parameters (Constantvalue(BSC6900,BSC6910),
PowerRampStep(BSC6900,BSC6910), and PreambleRetransMax(BSC6900,BSC6910))
to UEs.
Compared with the original settings, the optimized settings reduce the value of the constant for
calculating the initial transmit power, lower the ramping step for random access preambles, and
increase the maximum number of preamble retransmissions. Therefore, using the optimized
settings reduces the interference to uplink channels and ultimately reduces the cell RTWP when
the cell uplink load is greater than the value of the OptiStartLoadState parameter and the number
of acknowledged random accesses is greater than the value of the RandomAccessCongestThd
(BSC6900,BSC6910) parameter. When the number of acknowledged random accesses is less
than or equal to the value of the RandomAccessClearThd(BSC6900,BSC6910) parameter, using
the optimized setting increases the delay during random access.

6 Engineering Guidelines
Engineering Guidelines
6.1 When to Use Adaptive RACH

This feature is recommended for a cell in which with high RTWP due to a large number of
random accesses cause high RTWP.
This feature takes effect after activation if the cell meets the following conditions:
l
The uplink power load is greater than the value of the OptiStartLoadState parameter. This
parameter is set to 50% by default.
The average number of acknowledged random accesses (indicated by the

VS.Random.Access.ACKNum.Mean counter) is greater than the value of the
RandomAccessCongestThd parameter. This parameter is set to 20 by default.
6.2 Required Information

The information to be collected for activation is as follows:
l
VS.MeanRTWP: average RTWP of a cell. This counter is used to calculate the uplink power
load of a cell.
The uplink power load of a cell can be calculated using the following formula: uplink power
load = 1 - (1/RoT). In this formula, the rise over thermal (RoT) equals to the difference
between the RTWP and the background noise. In addition, the RoT needs to be converted
into linear quantities.
VS.Random.Access.ACKNum.Mean: average number of acknowledged random accesses

in a cell.
The RNC measures the number of acknowledged random accesses in a cell when the
ACK_PRACH_PREAM_MEAS check box under the NBMLdcAlgoSwitch parameter
in the ADD UCELLALGOSWITCH command is selected.

6.4 Performance Monitoring

To evaluate the performance of this feature, check whether the RTWP of each cell decreases or
the HSUPA throughput of each cell increases after the feature is activated.
The RTWP and HSUPA throughput of a cell changes with the cell load. Therefore, the changes
in RTWP and HSUPA throughput in a short period of time after this feature is activated do not
reflect the performance of this feature. It is recommended that you check the RTWPs and HSUPA
throughput for 3 to 5 days before and after this feature is activated.
Issue 01 (2014-04-30)

20
WCDMA RAN
The RTWP of each cell can be checked in the following ways:

1. Counters VS.MaxRTWP and VS.MeanRTWP on the RNC side
2. Counters VS.HSUPA.LoadOutput.0 to VS.HSUPA.LoadOutput.25 on the NodeB side
The HSUPA throughput of each cell can be checked through the value of the RNC counter
VS.HSUPA.MeanChThroughput.TotalBytes.
6.5 Parameter Optimization

Setting the RandomAccessCongestThd(BSC6900,BSC6910) and OptiStartLoadState
(BSC6900,BSC6910) parameters to smaller values increases the probability that this feature
takes effect.
6.6 Troubleshooting
For 3900 series base stations configured with a WBBPa board, cells carried on this WBBPa
board do not support this feature. If such a cell is enabled with the Adaptive RACH feature, the
RNC will send an error message (NBAP_ERR_IND_COMM) to the NodeB. In this case, disable
this feature for this cell.

Meaning: Whether to enable the algorithms related to

cell load control. Selecting a switch enables the
corresponding algorithm and clearing a switch disables
the corresponding algorithm. 1.
INTRA_FREQUENCY_LDB: Whether to enable the
cell breathing algorithm. This algorithm adjusts PCPICH transmit power of a cell based on the downlink
TCP load to achieve load balancing between intrafrequency cells. This algorithm automatically becomes
invalid when the load-based dynamic P-CPICH
transmit power adjustment algorithm (controlled by the
DLLOAD_BASED_PCPICH_PWR_ADJ_SWITCH
switch) takes effect. 2. PUC: Whether to enable the
Potential User Control (PUC) algorithm. This algorithm
adjusts cell selection and reselection parameters based
on the cell load to enable UEs to reselect lightly loaded
cells. 3. UL_UU_OLC: Whether to enable the uplink
overload control (OLC) algorithm. When the uplink
power is overloaded in a cell, this algorithm alleviates
the uplink load by using quick transport format (TF)
restriction, distributing best effort (BE) service to
common channels, or releasing UEs. 4. DL_UU_OLC:
Whether to enable the downlink OLC algorithm. When
the downlink power is overloaded in a cell, this
algorithm alleviates the downlink load by using quick
TF restriction, distributing BE services to common
channels, releasing UEs, or reconfiguring the maximum

power load of a cell matches any of the following states:
light, normal, loaded, heavy, and overload. The light
state indicates that the uplink power load is in the range
between 0% and 30%. The normal state indicates that
the uplink power load is in the range between 30% and
