Introduction Packet-oriented features like HSDPA and E-DCH in WCDMA/UMTS systems will promote the subscribers desire for continuous

27、 connectivity, where the user stays connected over a long time span with only occasional active periods of data transmission, and avoiding frequent connection termination and re-establishment with its inherent overhead and delay. This is the perceived mode a subscriber is used to in fixed broadband

28、networks (e.g. DSL) and a precondition to attract users from fixed broadband networks. To support a high number of HSDPA users in the code limited downlink the feature F-DPCH was introduced in REL-6. In the uplink, the limiting factor for supporting a similarly high number of E-DCH users is the nois

29、e rise. For such a high number of users in the cell it can be assumed that many users are not transmitting any user data for some time (e.g. for reading during web browsing or in between packets for periodic packet transmission such as VoIP).The corresponding overhead in the noise rise caused by mai

30、ntained control channels will significantly limit the number of users that can be efficiently supported. As completely releasing dedicated channels during periods of traffic inactivity would cause considerable delays for reestablishing data transmission and a corresponding bad user perception, this

31、WI is intended to reduce the impact of control channels on uplink noise rise while maintaining the connections and allowing a much faster reactivation for temporarily inactive users.

This is intended to significantly increase the number of packet data users (i.e. HS-DSCH/E-DCH users without UL DPDCH) in

This sectio

40、n 4 includes feasible concepts to address the WI without claiming that the concepts are complete or restricting the addition of alternatives. The following common base for all concepts can be assumed: - Packet data users in CELL_DCH state using HSDPA and E-DCH as described in REL-6 are addressed. -

41、The UE is and will remain in the CELL_DCH RRC state whatever continuous connectivity concept will be applied. - The signalling radio bearers (SRBs) are assumed to be mapped on HS-DSCH in downlink (as is necessary for F-DPCH, anyway) and on E-DCH in uplink. - UL channels present in this case: UL DPCC

42、H, HS-DPCCH, E-DPCCH, E-DPDCH (E-DPCCH, E-DPDCH are DTXed when no data (or rate requests) needs to be transmitted on E-DPDCH). - DL channels present in this case: F-DPCH, HS-SCCH, HS-PDSCH, E-AGCH, E-RGCH, E-HICH. To avoid DL channelization code limitations F-DPCH instead of DL DPCCH is considered.

43、Different phases during the stay in the CELL_DCH state can be distinguished by the activity of the data channels: - Packet on HS-PDSCH is transmitted to the UE in the TTI. - inactive DL: No packet is transmitted on HS-PDSCH to the UE in the TTI. - Packet on E-DPDCH is transmitted to the Node B in th

44、e TTI. - inactive UL: No packet is transmitted on E-DPDCH to the Node B in the TTI. It is the aim that the application of a continuous connectivity concept will not affect the performance of a transmission in an active TTI. The description of the active and inactive phases does not preclude the way

45、and whether or not CELL_DCH substates should be introduced. The continuous connectivity concepts are addressing the control channels (i.e. one or more) during inactive phases in UL and/or DL. The triggers for initiating and terminating the use of a continuous connectivity concept relative to the sta

46、rt and end of active and inactive phases depend on the considered concept. For example: - whether the concept is triggered when there is inactivity in just one direction (i.e. only DL, only UL) or in both directions (UL ETSI ETSI TR 125 903 V15.0.0 (2018-07)103GPP TR 25.903 version 15.0.0 Release 15

47、- whether a transition from activity to inactivity will directly trigger the application of the concept or whether there is a short period of inactive phase without applying the concept (e.g. if a timer is used to trigger the concept); - whether very short periods of DL and/or UL inactivity (e.g. du

48、ring transmission of VoIP packets or where a UE is not scheduled but data is waiting in the scheduler queue) could also be addressed by a continuous connectivity concept. - whether during an inactive phase the concept is used during transmission of physical layer signalling (e.g. on HS-DPCCH or HS-S

49、CCH). The period during which a continuous connectivity concept is applied is called “Continuously Packet Connected mode“ or shorter “CPC mode“. Transitions between the different phases: The following transitions are called “ CPC initiation“: - active phase to CPC mode - inactive phase where REL-6 is applied as usual to CPC mode while the transition back is called “CPC termination“: - CPC mode to active phase. - CPC mode to inactive phase where REL-6 is applied as usual Triggers for the transitions and a description of the signalling (e.g. L1 or L2 signalling) or the
