LTE Flexible Bandwidth Feature Parameter Description 2 Overview
2 Overview
2.1 Background
In GL refarming scenarios, some, or even all, of the GSM spectrum resources are reallocated
to LTE networks. During the refarming, the GSM networks release spectrum resources in
units of 200 kHz (equal to one GSM carrier). As a result, the released resources may not be
equal to standard LTE bandwidths (1.4 MHz, 3 MHz, 5 MHz, 10 MHz, 15 MHz, or 20 MHz).
The LTE Flexible Bandwidth feature allows operators to deploy LTE networks with Huawei
eNodeBs using non-standard bandwidths.
2.2 Introduction
This feature punctures available RBs in LTE cells using the standard bandwidth, enabling the
cells to work properly on non-standard bandwidths.
This feature enables 10 MHz, 15 MHz, and 20 MHz standard bandwidths to be compressed to
75% of their original sizes. However, it is recommended that the bandwidth compression ratio
be set to 80%. That is, the LTE flexible bandwidths supported by eNodeBs are 8 MHz to 9.9
MHz, 12 MHz to 14.9 MHz, and 16 MHz to 19.9 MHz. If a ratio of lower than 80% is
required, contact Huawei engineers.
2.3 Benefits
The LTE Flexible Bandwidth feature increases spectral efficiency, raises peak rate of users,
and improves user experience.
For the peak rate in scenarios where the bandwidth is compressed from 10 MHz to 8 MHz:
Uplink: 50% gain compared to 5 MHz and 25% loss compared to 10 MHz
Downlink: 50% gain compared to 5 MHz and 25% loss compared to 10 MHz

eRAN
LTE Flexible Bandwidth Feature Parameter Description 3 Technical Description
3 Technical Description
3.1 Introduction
The LTE Flexible Bandwidth feature compresses bandwidth by reducing effective bandwidth
and limits performance loss caused by RB puncturing through effective management of
physical channel resources. Uplink anti-interference technologies are used to decrease the
uplink interference from GSM frequencies. For details, see Figure 3-5.
3.1.1 Principles
The LTE_FB_CFG_SWITCH option of the CellLteFlexBw.LteFlexBwSwitch parameter is
used to activate or deactivate the LTE Flexible Bandwidth feature for an eNodeB.
The ranges of available uplink and downlink RBs are specified by the following four
parameters:
l CellLteFlexBw.DlCustStartPrbIndex
l CellLteFlexBw.DlCustEndPrbIndex
l CellLteFlexBw.UlCustStartPrbIndex
l CellLteFlexBw.UlCustEndPrbIndex.
For example, in an uplink scenario where GSM interfering frequencies are at the edges of an
LTE standard bandwidth and there are two RBs between the LTE spectrum and the nearest
GSM frequencies, if the value of the CellLteFlexBw.UlCustStartPrbIndex parameter is
smaller than that of the CellLteFlexBw.UlCustEndPrbIndex parameter, the actual bandwidth
of the cell equals (CellLteFlexBw.UlCustEndPrbIndex -
CellLteFlexBw.UlCustStartPrbIndex + 5) x 0.18 MHz. For details, see Figure 3-1.

eRAN

3.1.2 Usage Scenarios

The LTE Flexible Bandwidth feature can be used in two scenarios, depending on the
configuration. The channel distribution before the adjustment is shown in Figure 3-2.
Figure 3-2 Channel distribution before the adjustment
Scenario 1
The GSM frequencies are distributed at the edges of the LTE flexible bandwidth. The channel
distribution after the adjustment is shown in Figure 3-3.
Figure 3-3 Channel distribution after the adjustment

eRAN
Scenario 2
The GSM frequencies are distributed within the LTE flexible bandwidth. The channel
distribution after the adjustment is shown in Figure 3-4.
Figure 3-4 Channel distribution after the adjustment
Scenario 1 is the recommended configuration for improved performance in LTE cells.
Adjustment Method
Figure 3-5 shows the adjustment method of LTE Flexible Bandwidth by taking scenario 1 as
an example.

eRAN
Figure 3-5 Adjustment method of LTE Flexible Bandwidth
3.2 Physical Channel Resource Management

With LTE flexible bandwidth, eNodeBs adjust related resource management algorithms for
physical channels to reduce performance loss caused by RB puncturing. This adjustment
prevents the resources from being allocated to punctured RBs.
3.2.1 PCFICH and PHICH Resource Allocation

The positions of resource elements (REs) occupied by a PCFICH depend on the physical cell
identifier (PCI), which is specified by the Cell.PhyCellId parameter. The LTE Flexible
Bandwidth feature imposes certain constraints on PCI assignment to ensure that a PCFICH
occupies the REs that are not located in punctured RBs. If the PCI set is too small, assign a
resource element group (REG) from the PCFICH to the punctured RBs to increase the
transmit power and ensure that UEs can parse the PCFICH correctly.
The arrangement of the REs on the PHICH depends on the PCI and the Ng parameter. The
LTE Flexible Bandwidth feature imposes constraints on PCI assignment and the Ng parameter
value to ensure that a PHICH uses REs that are not located in punctured RBs, and that UEs
can parse the PHICH correctly.
The selected PCI must meet certain constraints related to the PCFICH and the PHICH.
For details about the constraint relationship between the PCI and the PCFICH, see section
6.7.4 "Mapping to resource elements" in 3GPP TS 36.211 V9.1.0.

eRAN
For details about the constraint relationship between the PCI and the PHICH, see section 6.9.3
"Mapping to resource elements" in 3GPP TS 36.211 V9.1.0.
For details about the Ng parameter, see section 6.9 "Physical hybrid ARQ indicator channel"
in 3GPP TS 36.211 V9.1.0.
NOTE
A proper PCI helps reduce the impacts of GSM interference on the PCFICH or the PHICH. PCI
planning of GSM frequencies on the U-Net can be used to select the PCI.
3.2.2 PDCCH Resource Allocation and Power Control

With LTE flexible bandwidth, the PDCCHs used by some UEs may be mapped to punctured
RBs, resulting in a deterioration of PDCCH demodulation performance. The following
methods are available to improve performance:
l Raise the aggregation level for the PDCCHs.
l Increase the transmit power of the PDCCHs based on the number of lost REGs.
l Transmit the PDCCHs over the full bandwidth. However, this function is not
recommended because it may cause interference to the neighboring RATs. The function
is controlled by the PDCCH_CAPACITY_OPT_SWITCH option of the
CellLteFlexBw.LteFlexBwSwitch parameter. For details, see 6.6 Parameter
Optimization.
3.2.3 PDSCH Resource Allocation

With LTE flexible bandwidth, PDSCH resource allocation operates in the same way as on
standard bandwidths, although the number of RBs available for each PDSCH decreases as the
total number of available RBs decreases.
To improve the peak rates of UEs at the cell center, LTE Flexible Bandwidth provides the
PDSCH optimization function. This function is controlled by the
CellDlschAlgo.RBDamageNearPointIblerTh parameter. For details, see 6.6 Parameter
Optimization. This function may cause interference to the neighboring RATs.
3.2.4 PUCCH Resource Allocation

PUCCHs normally use RBs at two edges of the frequency bands. With LTE flexible
bandwidth, the PUCCH is moved inwards, between the GSM carrier and the LTE central
frequency. For details about the channel distribution before and after the adjustment, see 3.1.2
Usage Scenarios.
3.2.5 PUSCH Resource Allocation

With LTE flexible bandwidth, PUSCH resource allocation is the same as that for standard
bandwidths, although the number of RBs available for each PUSCH decreases because the
eNodeB punctures the RBs, but the total number of RBs available for the PUCCHs and
PRACHs remains unchanged.
3.2.6 SRS and PRACH Resource Allocation

With LTE flexible bandwidth, SRS and PRACH resource allocation is the same as that for
standard bandwidths. Resources for SRSs and PRACHs are allocated on available RBs.
Because RBs are punctured, SRSs and PRACHs may use the same RBs.

eRAN
3.2.7 CQI Adjustment

The channel quality indicator (CQI) adjustment algorithm applies to both standard and
flexible LTE bandwidths. This algorithm corrects measurement errors caused by LTE flexible
bandwidths and increases the spectral efficiency of LTE flexible bandwidth.
With LTE flexible bandwidth, UEs do not know what portion of the RBs is punctured and
therefore measure full-band pilot strengths over the entire standard bandwidth. eNodeBs do
not transmit reference signals (RSs) on punctured RBs. Therefore, the measurement results
are incorrect. The full-band signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) measured by UEs is
lower than the actual SINR, especially close to the cell center.
If an eNodeB performs scheduling other than frequency selective scheduling based on
wideband CQIs from a UE, the CQI adjustment algorithm can offset the measurement
deviations to improve the spectral efficiency of LTE flexible bandwidths. If an eNodeB
performs frequency selective scheduling based on subband CQIs with reporting mode 2-x
from a UE, the eNodeB uses wideband CQIs for subbands where no subband CQIs are
available. In this situation, the eNodeB derives a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) based
on the combined wideband and subband CQIs and delivers the MCS to the UE. As a result,
the CQI adjustment algorithm provides lower accuracy, which has little impact on
performance and overall resource allocation fairness in frequency selective scheduling mode.
For details about the CQI adjustment algorithm, see Scheduling Feature Parameter
Description.

LTE Flexible Bandwidth Feature Parameter Description 5 Network Impact
5 Network Impact
System Capacity
The LTE Flexible Bandwidth feature increases the spectral efficiency and system capacity for
any given amount of available bandwidth.
Network Performance
l The LTE Flexible Bandwidth increases the number of available RBs and improves
average UE throughput and cell throughput. However, UEs in a cell where LTE flexible
bandwidth has been deployed experience greater inter-RAT interference (caused by GSM
networks in GL refarming scenarios) than those in a cell with the standard bandwidth.
This interference reduces the access success rate, handover success rate, and service drop
rate. In addition, the block error rate (BLER) on the LTE network increases because
spectrum resources are shared by GSM and LTE networks.
l The LTE Flexible Bandwidth feature increases discontinuous transmissions. In coverage-
restricted scenarios, the number of RRC connection reestablishments increases and the
reestablishment success rate deteriorates.
l Some UEs perform channel estimation based on the signal to interference plus noise
ratio (SINR) measured over the full bandwidth. This increases the RRC connection
reestablishments of a few cell edge UEs due to poor demodulation performance.
l The GSM networks are interfered by LTE networks because spectrum resources are
shared by GSM and LTE networks.

6 Engineering Guidelines
6.1 When to Use

LTE Flexible Bandwidth is recommended when spectrum resources acquired by an operator
meet the conditions in Table 6-1.
Table 6-1 Recommended scenarios for using LTE Flexible Bandwidth
Scenario Total Bandwidth (MHz) LTE Available

Bandwidth (MHz)
1 10 8
2 15 12
3 20 16
l In GL refarming scenarios, spectrum resources for GSM are decreased while those for
LTE are increased. Before enabling LTE Flexible Bandwidth, check whether the
following conditions are met:
The RRU power accommodates the requirements on the total power after LTE
spectrum resource adjustment.
The CPRI and eX2 transmission bandwidths meet the requirements on the
bandwidth after LTE spectrum resource adjustment.
When GSM and LTE share an RRU, refarm GSM frequencies after LTE Flexible
Bandwidth is enabled. Otherwise, the refarming fails because GSM and LTE frequency
overlapping is prohibited by the system verification.
l After LTE Flexible Bandwidth is enabled, LTE central frequencies and PCIs will change.
Update the following configurations for other cells: external cells, neighboring cells, and
inter-frequency and inter-RAT frequencies.
l When LTE Flexible Bandwidth is enabled, BTSBBMODE.BBMODE of the
neighboring GSM cell cannot be set to BBEXT(Whole Baseband Extension).

6.4.5 Activation Observation

The following procedure uses activation observation for the LTE flexible bandwidth 10 MHz
(without NB-IoT) as an example:
After this feature is activated in a cell, check whether the value of L.ChMeas.PRB.UL.Avail
is 42 and the value of L.ChMeas.PRB.DL.Avail is 42. If they are, this feature has been
activated.

6.5 Performance Monitoring

In LTE networks where operators' bandwidths are less than the standard bandwidths of 10
MHz, 15 MHz, or 20 MHz, the LTE Flexible Bandwidth feature increases spectral efficiency
and cell throughput. Operators can monitor the cell throughput to evaluate the gains brought
by this feature.
If an LTE flexible bandwidth produces significantly higher throughput than the corresponding
standard bandwidth, the performance of the LTE Flexible Bandwidth feature is good. If the
LTE flexible bandwidth produces lower throughput, this feature has not taken effect. For
example, an operator allocated an 8 MHz bandwidth can use only a 5 MHz bandwidth before
the operator activates the LTE Flexible Bandwidth feature. In contrast, the operator can use an
8 MHz bandwidth after activating the feature. The benefits of the LTE Flexible Bandwidth
feature can be evaluated by comparing the throughput of the 5 MHz bandwidth and the 8
MHz bandwidth.
6.6 Parameter Optimization

Configure GSM strong interfering frequencies.

eRAN
GSM Carrier Frequency CellLteFlexBwItfCfg.Gsm Set this parameter based on

CarrierFreq the spectrum planning of co-
sited GSM.
High Interference GSM CellLteFlexBwItfCfg.High Based on the frequency

ARFCN ItfGsmArfcn planning of co-sited GSM,
the position of available
RBs for LTE (specified by
the
CellLteFlexBw.UlCustStar
tPrbIndex and
CellLteFlexBw.UlCustEnd
PrbIndex parameters) must
be far away from the GSM
frequencies with an interval
of over 270 kHz.
When the GSM strong interfering frequency is set, configure the following parameters to
improve network performance:
Flexible Bandwidth CellLteFlexBw.Lte Selecting the

Optimization Switch FlexBwSwitch PDCCH_CAPACITY_OPT_SWITC
H option reduces the interference
brought by LTE CRSs and PDCCHs
on neighboring RATs, but deteriorates
LTE performance.
Deselecting the
PDCCH_CAPACITY_OPT_SWITC
H option transmits CRSs and PDCCHs
over the full bandwidth and causes the
interference to neighboring RATs.
Flexible Bandwidth CellLteFlexBw.Lte Selecting the

Optimization Switch FlexBwSwitch UL_STRONG_GSM_ITF_PROCES
S_SW option reduces the interference
on neighboring GSM frequencies.
RB Damage Cell Near CellDlSchAlgo.RB This parameter controls the range of

Point User IBLER Thd DamageNearPointI- UEs using the PDSCH optimization
blerTh function. A larger value of this
parameter results in a wider user range.
It is recommended that setting this
parameter to 40 to improve the
downlink peak throughput of UEs at
the cell center. However, it may cause
the interference to neighboring RATs.

6.7 Possible Issues

Fault Description 1
After the LTE Flexible Bandwidth feature is configured on a cell, the cell cannot be activated.
Fault Handling 1
Step 1 Run the DSP LICENSE command to check whether the license for LTE Flexible Bandwidth
has taken effect. If it has not taken effect, activate the license. If it has taken effect, go to Step
2.
Step 2 Check the number of inward-moving PUCCHs, and determine whether the reserved RBs for
the PRACHs and SRSs meet the requirements.
Step 3 If NB-IoT is configured, adjust uplink RB positions to be close to the edge RBs in cells with
the LTE Flexible Bandwidth feature enabled.
Step 4 If the fault persists, contact Huawei engineers.
----End
Fault Description 2
Cell Addition or Modification Failure
Fault Handling 2
Step 1 Run the ADD CELL or MOD CELL command to check whether the setting of the
Cell.PhyCellId parameter complies with the requirements specified in 3.2.1 PCFICH and
PHICH Resource Allocation. Inappropriate PCI settings cause failures in adding or
modifying cells.
Step 2 If the Cell.PhyCellId parameter setting does not comply with the requirements, change the
setting.
----End
Fault Description 3
The cell activation and BBI configuration fail.
Fault Handling 3
Step 1 Run the LST CELL command to check whether the CPRI Compression parameter is set to
NO_COMPRESSION(No Compression).
Step 2 If the parameter is set to another value, set it to NO_COMPRESSION(No Compression).

ACK to Msg4 HARQ retransmission is received or
when Msg5 is received. If this option is deselected,
the reported CQI immediately takes effect. This option
CqiFastCompstSwitch: Indicates whether the eNodeB
performs fast CQI compensation for the following
UEs: UEs handed over to cells whose values of PCI
modulo 3 conflict with source cells' values of PCI
modulo 3, beamforming UEs in 8T8R cells, and UEs
aperiodically reporting CQIs during network access
under a high CAPS condition. If this option is
selected, the eNodeB identifies these UEs and quickly
compensates for the CQIs of these UEs. If this option
is deselected, the eNodeB does not identify these UEs
for CQI compensation. This option applies only to
LTE TDD.
CfiConvertWiDrsSwitch: Indicates whether to
consider the DRS overhead when converting the
control format indicator (CFI) for beamforming UEs.
If this option is selected, the eNodeB considers the
number of REs consumed by the UE-specific
reference signal when converting the CFI of
beamforming UEs. If this option is deselected, the
eNodeB does not consider the number of REs
consumed by the UE-specific reference signal when
converting the CFI of beamforming UEs in open-loop
TM7, TM8, or TM9 mode. This option applies only to
LTE FDD and LTE TDD.
IblerCqiOffsetSwitch: Indicates whether to perform
CQI compensation based on the target IBLER. The
eNodeB performs CQI compensation based on the
target IBLER only if this option is selected. This
option applies only to LTE TDD.

eRAN

nd
CqiFltOptSwitch: Indicates whether to optimize CQI

filtering. If this option is selected, the eNodeB
determines whether to discard a UE-reported CQI
based on this reported CQI and the previous HARQ
retransmission IBLER, does not filter CQIs again in
case of TM change, and triggers both large step
increase and large step decrease during step
adaptation. If this option is deselected, the eNodeB
directly uses UE-reported CQIs, filters CQIs again in
case of TM change, and triggers only large step
increase during step adaptation. This option applies
only to LTE FDD and LTE TDD.
PreciseMcsAdaptSwitch: Indicates whether to enable
precise MCS adaptation. If this option is selected, the
eNodeB selects the TBS with a higher index for the
first downlink HARQ retransmission. In addition,
when the initial CQI adjustment amount is relatively
conservative, the eNodeB increases and compensates
for the CQI adjustment amount. If this option is
deselected, the eNodeB does not perform the
preceding operations. This option applies only to LTE
FDD.
PilotOffCqiAdjOptSwitch: Indicates CQI adaptation
optimization for CRS transmission disabling. If this
option is selected, for UEs regarded as large-packet
UEs when the BreathingPilotSwitch or
EmimoCpsSwitch option is selected, the CQI
adjustment is performed at a large step in case of
significant signal quality changes. If this option is
deselected, the CQI adjustment is performed at a fixed
step for the preceding UEs. This option applies only to
LTE FDD.
