Purpose of Power Control
Compensate path loss , including shadow fading and multiple

path fading
Reduce interference on the edge cell

Page6
Power Control Features in eNodeB
Downlink power control:
There is no uplink power control command, so DL power cont

rol is more like dynamic power allocation
Uplink power control
Including open loop, closed loop and inner loop power contro
l. 1 bit or 2 bits power control command is defined for closed
loop and inner loop power control

adjustment
Disabled
PHICH carry HARQ feedback which

requires high accuracy, and default
power could guarantee it. And it is not
necessary to reduce PHICH power
because it occupies very less resource.
PDCCH dynamic Enabled

To reduce the service drop rate and

increase the throughput for
CEUs.

Turning on this switch may waste RB

resources in multi-UE scenarios. This
will bring negative gains to cell
throughput and increase overall
interference on the entire network.

Dynamic Power Allocation - PHICH

CQI Report
Estimate SINR_RS
Compare it with target SINR_RS
Adjust PHICH power

The PHICH occupies very few resources, which means decreasing its tr
ansmit power cannot significantly reduce power consumption. In addit

ion, the PHICH carries the ACK/NACK messages for the uplink data, whi
ch requires high accuracy. Decreasing the transmit power of the PHICH
may reduce accuracy and uplink data rate. Therefore, the dynamic pow
er allocation is not recommended in commercial network.

Page23
PRACH Power Control
The purpose of power control for the PRACH is to ensure the

random access success rate while minimizing transmit power
The PRACH power is calculated using the following formula:
PPRACH min{ PCMAX , Po _ pre PL preamble ( N pre 1) step }

PUSCH Power Control Overview
The purposes of power control for the PUSCH are as follow

s:
Lower interference to neighboring cells and increasing cell thr

oughput
Ensure services rates for users on cell edges
the transmit power for the PUSCH is calculated using the f

ollowing formula:
PPUSCH (i ) min{ PCMAX ,10 log( M PUSCH (i )) Po _ PUSCH PL TF (i ) f (i )}

Msg3 Power Control
When the PUSCH carries Msg3, the transmit power of each

UE's PUSCH is calculated using the following formula:
PPUSCH (i ) min{ PCMAX ,10 log( M PUSCH (i )) PO_pre PREAMBLE _ Msg3 PL TF (i ) f (i )}

Page33
PUCCH Power Control
The PUCCH carries the ACK/NACK information, CQIs, and sc

hedule request (SR) information related to downlink data.
When the probability of incorrect demodulation on the PUC
CH is high, user throughput is severely affected.
The purposes of power control for the PUCCH are to ensur
e the PUCCH performance and reduce the interference to n
eighboring cells.
The transmit power for the PUCCH is calculated using the f
ollowing formula:
PPUCCH (i) min{ PCMAX , P0 _ PUCCH PL h n CQI , nHARQ F _ PUCCH ( F ) g (i)}

Sounding RS Power Control
The SRS is used for uplink channel estimation and uplink ti

ming. Power control for the SRS improves the precision in
uplink channel estimation and uplink timing.
The SRS power is calculated using the following formula:
PSRS (i) min{ PCMAX , 10 log( M SRS ) PSRS _ OFFSET P0 _ PUSCH PL f (i )}
The same as PUSCH Power Control

If dynamic power allocation is enable, during the movement
of UE, you will see the variable values of power offset

Step 2: Start uplink traffic for test UE
Step 3: Monitoring DCI statistic from M2000, if you can find the result
for DCI0, DCI3 or DCI3A, that means PUSCH power control works

Page52
PUCCH Power Control Verification
As all DCI could be used for PUCCH power control, so it is difficult to veri
fy the PUCCH power control from DCI statistic
We can monitor PUCCH SINR to verify PUCCH power control. When UE

moves, if SINR is convergence with target value (16dB), it indicate PUCC
H power control works.
