PUC Realization
PUC can modify inter-frequency cell reselection parameters to control the user distribution between cells.
Sintersearch: when the load of a cell is Heavy, PUC will increase this parameter; when the load of a cell is Light, PUC will decrease this parameter. QOffset1sn and QOffset2sn: when the load of a cell is Heavy, PUC will decrease these parameters; when the load of a cell is Light, PUC will increase these parameters.

Why we need CAC?

WCDMA is an interference limited system, after a new call is admitted, the system load will be increased If a cell is high loaded, a new call will cause ongoing user dropped We must keep the coverage planed by the Radio Network Planning
Flow chart of CAC
CAC Code Resource Admission

For handover services

The algorithm is easy to implement, but it is affected by the result of RTWP and TCP measurement

Why we need IAC?

The disadvantage of CAC:
For PS NRT (Non-Real Time) services, CAC is not flexible No consideration about the priority of different users No consideration about Directed Retry after CAC rejection
Intelligent means the algorithm can increase admission successful rate
Flow chart of IAC
IAC Rate negotiation

Iu QoS Negotiation: based on
Maximum allowed bit rate 384kbps 256kbps 128kbps Initial / Target data rate 64kbps 32kbps
the UE capability
Physical layer capability Transport channel capability RLC capability
RAB Downsizing: based on system load

Channelization codes Iub transmission resources Radio resources
Scenarios: RAB setupRAB modify, SRNSR request, reconfiguration

IAC Direct Retry based on service

Data service can be retry to HSDPA cells for better QoS
Data service Frequency A CELL2 R99 CELL 1 R99
Frequency B CELL A HSDPA
IAC Preemption
The user with high priority can preempt the resource of users with low priority Triggering resource for Preemption
Power (or ENU), SF (spreading factor), Iub transmission resource, NodeB CE
High priority Preempting resource Low priority
IAC Queuing
After CAC rejection, UE can wait a moment and queue, then try to admit again Queuing priority: Pqueue = Tmax Telapsed
Tmax is the maximum time in the queue, default value is 5s Telapsed is the time has queued
IAC Directed Retry based on Load Balance

Service will be set up to the cell with lightest load The advantages
Keeping the load of the network balanced Supporting higher data rate for the user
