Summary
This feature dynamically adjusts the target number of retransmissions based on the uplink
throughput of UEs and the uplink load on the serving cell. The purpose is to improve the
uplink throughput of the serving cell.
Benefits
This feature improves the system capacity in cases where multiple HSUPA UEs with a 10 ms
transmission time interval (TTI) are uploading data in a cell with a limited uplink load.
Description
When the uplink load is limited, a small target number of retransmissions will impose high
requirements on the signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) on the Dedicated Physical Control
Channel (DPCCH), and the DPCCH must use higher power. This leads to a decrease in the
power of available data channels, a lower UE throughput, and a lower HSUPA cell
throughput. The adaptive adjustment of HSUPA small target retransmissions feature has
been introduced to address these problems. This feature supports an alternative small
target number of retransmissions for each typical type of service. The actual target number
of retransmissions can dynamically shift between the original fixed number and the
alternative number depending on the throughput of UEs and the uplink load on the cell.
This improves the system capacity when the uplink load is limited.
A cell can be simutaneouslly configured with the feature Adptive Adjustment of HSUPA
Samll Target Retransmissions and the feature DC-HSUPA. However, if DC-HSUPA is
enable for a UE, Adaptive Adjustment of HSUPA Small Target Retransmissions will not
work for this UE.
