Introduction to RRM
RRM: Radio Resource Management RRM is responsible for supplying optimum coverage, offering
the maximum planned capacity, guaranteeing the required quality of service (QoS) and ensuring efficient use of physical and transport resources.
Power is the ultimate radio resource. The best way to utilize
the radio resource is to control the power consumption strictly. Increasing the transmission power of a certain user can improve his QoS. However, due to the self-interference, the increasing would result in more interference on other users and consequently reduce the receiving QoS.

Classification of RRM
Based on the different objects, RRM is classified as:
Connection oriented RRM, which guarantees QoS of connection
and minimizes the radio resource allocated for the connection. Channel configuration, power control, handover
A dedicated entity is created to manage the resource configuration for each connection.
Cell oriented RRM, which maximizes users in cells and thus

Decision of DCCC
Measurement report on traffic volume of RLC Buffer Decide whether to change the bandwidth used by UE dynamically based on the measurement result. Consider whether there is limitation on air interface during the decision of reconfiguration. This is done by measuring the transmitting power of UE in both downlink and uplink.
The uplink & downlink DCCC decisions are the same, but are executed respectively.

time
To enable a sufficient reception level for maintaining communications by combining the received signal at symbol level from multiple cells in case the UE moves to the cell boundary areas.
The macro diversity gain achieved by combining the received signal in the NODEB (softer handover) or in the RNC (SHO) improves the uplink signal quality and thus decrease the required transmission power of the UE.

maximum ratio combination (RAKE combination) in downlink and selection combination in uplink.
When the two cells in soft handover belong to the same NodeB,
maximum ratio combination could be used in uplink. In this case the handover is softer handover.
Softer handover has higher priority in handover schemes
because maximum ratio combination has larger gain than selection combination.

Features of hard handover:
time
HHO causes a temporary disconnection for RT radio access bearer and is lossless for NRT bearers. The UE must either be equipped with a second receiver or support compressed mode to execute inter-system/intersystem measurement.

Needed in certain areas due to network planning Load balance between frequencies
Inter-system handover
Page 46
Compressed Mode
Intra-frequency neighbors can be measured simultaneously with normal transmission by UE using a RAKE receiver. Inter-frequency or inter-system neighbors measurements require the UE measuring on a different frequency, this has either to be done with multiple receivers in the UE or in the compressed mode. CM is to stop the normal transmission and reception for a certain period of time, enable the UE to measure on the other frequency.
Page 47
Compressed Mode
Objective of compressed mode: for UE to realize measurement and synchronization to target cell when inter-frequency handover and inter-system handover is required.
Page 48
To create time for UEs measurement and synchronization. 3 optional schemes -- SF/2, rate matching/puncturing, higher layer scheduling
Uplink compressed mode
To avoid the interference on its own downlink measurement and synchronization when UE is measuring certain target cells. Whether compressed mode is needed is determined by UEs capacity. 2 optional schemes -- SF/2, higher layer scheduling.

The strategy is that a new bearer is admitted only if
the total load after admittance stays below the threshold defined by RNP.

The objective of load banlance is to share the load of some "hot" cells in surrounding cells with low load, thus to increase the usage of system capacity.

To avoid the load imbalance effectively when UE enters DCH state by making UE in idle mode or non-DCH connected mode camp in cells with low load in advance To achieve the objective by changing the cell selection and re-selection parameters dynamically Potential user control is done by using system message

Congestion Control
The measures to make full use of system resource admission
control, load balance between cells, packet scheduling are not enough to guarantee the absolute stabilization, hence congestion control technology must be introduced.
Objective of congestion control
Temporarily reducing the QoS of traffic with low priority Temporarily reducing the QoS of CS traffic in some extreme conditions

AMR Speech
Features of AMR speech:
At a certain load level (which corresponds with SIR of UE), the Mean Opinion Score (MOS) the users experience does not increase linearly with the speech rate which UE uses. That is, at a certain load level, the most appropriate AMR speech rate used to acquire the highest MOS does not refer to the highest rate, but an appropriate middle rate. The limitation of UEs maximum transmitting power restricts the coverage of uplink AMR speech. To increase the uplink coverage of AMR speech, uplink rate should be reduced without worsening the UEs speech quality.
Page 62
Reduce AMR speech rate on heavy load condition, thus reduce the system load and improve speech quality relatively. Increase AMR speech rate on light load condition, thus improve QoS.
The AMR speech mode control can be done every 20ms! Reducing of AMR speech rate can widen the uplink
coverage effectively.
