35、5.991 version 5.1 .O Release 5 7 ETSI TR 125 991 V5.1.0 (2002-12) Rx Signal 4 + RAKE Receiver Background and Introduction The present document provides the results of the 3GPP Study Item on Mitigating the Effect of CPICH (Common Pilot Channel) Interference at the UE. The objective of the study, and

36、thus, of the present document, is to assess the potential benefits of this UE capability and to evaluate its implementation complexity. Additional information on this topic can be found in a number of prior 3GPP contributions i to SI. The idea behind CPICH interference mitigation is to eliminate, or

37、 at least reduce, the effect of the multiple access interference (MAI) associated with the Common Pilot Channels (CPICHs) of the same-cell and other-cell Node Bs. Since each UE utilizing this ability sees less effective interference, it will require less transmitted power from the Node- B to obtain

38、its desired block error rate. This transmit power savings can be used to support additional cell capacity. The CPICH channel takes up a significant portion of the total Node-B transmit power, and thus, mitigating its interference effect is particularly advantageous. For example, a Primary CPICH (P-C

39、PICH) power allocation value of 10% (i.e., P-CPICH-Ec/Ior = -10 dB) is suggested in 9, which translates approximately to at least a 10% loss in capacity from pilot interference. In addition, since all of the surrounding Node-Bs are unlikely to be transmitting at full power (peak load) at the same ti

40、me, the percentage of interference attributable to the pilot channels may be larger, (since the CPICHEc/Ior is fixed and referenced to maximum available transmit power). If in addition to the P-CPICH channel there is a Secondary CPICH (S-CPICH) channel enabled, the total relative pilot power increas

41、es, e.g., to 20% as 9, annex C.3.21. In this case, mitigating the effects of both the P-CPICH and S-CPICH channels would provide approximately double the capacity gains. CPICH interference mitigation is particularly attractive because of its potentially low implementation complexity. The information

42、 content and structure of the pilot channels are known a priori at the UE, which can be exploited to simplisl the mitigation procedure. Thus, the more costly approaches needed for data channel interference mitigation, are not needed for pilot interference mitigation. There can be a number of ways to

43、 mitigate the effect of CPICH interference. One example approach to CPICH interference mitigation, (based on a form of interference cancellation), is shown in Figure 1 that illustrates the concept 3. Here, pilot crosscorrelation terms (i.e., interference terms) are computed and subtracted at the out

44、put of the RAKE receiver, reducing the interference level seen by the subsequent decoding stage of the detector. The link level simulation results presented here are based on this approach.

46、ation by means of radio network level simulations. A number of companies have submitted simulation results, which are detailed below. 5.1.1 Intel Simulation Results The radio network simulations presented here were originally reported in 121 to assess capacity gains available through CPICH interfere

47、nce mitigation. The proposed methodology for the simulations are very similar to the methodology defiied in document TR 25.942 lo for FDD to FDD coexistence studies. For each snapshot of the Monte Carlo simulation, users are randomly placed across the cells, and power control and handover are modele

48、d as described in TR 25.942. System capacity is defined as the number of users supported when the network is loaded to the point where 95% of the users are satisfied. The simulations will focus on a single operator, macro-cell environment and will compare system capacity for systems with and without

49、 pilot interference mitigation enabled. The assumptions for the radio network simulations that were used to generate the results reported in the next clause are shown in annex A, which mostly follow those first presented in 7, (and which are mostly identical to those found in lo). Two difference are that the maximum number of users in the Active Set was increased to 3, and 3 sector cells where used instead of omni-directional cells, (as requested by Work Group 4 delegates over the email reflector). In addition the 144 kbps service was added for simulation,
