Description 2 Overview
2 Overview
The Dynamic Power Sharing feature maximizes cell coverage to meet the different power
requirements of users distributed in different areas of a cell.
NOTE
Read the Channel Management Feature Parameter Description, Handover Feature Parameter
Description, and Power Control Feature Parameter Description before reading this document.
Due to power control, users distributed in different areas of a cell require different transmit power
to access the radio network. Generally, users near the BTS require low transmit power, and users
far from the BTS require high transmit power.
This feature allocates calls requiring different power to appropriate timeslots based on certain
rules. The power of each timeslot is shared by multiple carriers. This ensures that the maximum
output power of certain channels is greater than the average available power of carriers, meeting
the power requirements of users far from the BTS. Figure 2-1 shows the power sharing principle.
Figure 2-1 Power sharing principle
When the user distribution in a cell changes dynamically, the dynamic transmit power of carriers
enabled with this feature can be greater than the average available power of carriers. This
increases the cell coverage without changing the power of the power amplifier (PA).
This feature includes the following functions:
l Single-PA power sharing: Multiple carriers on a TRX share their powers, such as power
sharing of carriers on an MRFU, or power sharing of carriers on a channel of an MRRU.
l Dual-PA power sharing: Two PAs or two channels form a power resource pool for power
sharing.

GSM BSS
Description 2 Overview
– For a dual-transmitter module, such as an MRRU, two PAs in a module can share their
powers.
– For a single-transmitter module, such as an MRFU, two MRFUs are required to
implement dual-PA power sharing. This is also known as inter-module power sharing.
The algorithms for these functions are the same.

3.1 Process of Dynamic Power Sharing

The Dynamic Power Sharing feature is activated when QTRUPWRSHARE is set to DYNAMIC
(Dynamic power sharing).
Figure 3-1 shows the process of Dynamic Power Sharing.
Figure 3-1 Process of Dynamic Power Sharing

GSM BSS
Call Access Phase

The BSC allocates an initial channel to a call according to the power required by the call and
the remaining power on a timeslot occupied by an idle channel.
Call Stable Phase

When a call enters the stable phase, the BSC monitors timeslot power every 0.5 second. Based
on the monitoring results, the BSC determines whether to perform:
l Handover due to downlink power insufficiency

When the current total power of a timeslot exceeds the maximum allowed transmit power
of the timeslot, a call is handed over to another timeslot to avoid damage to PAs.
l Handover preventing a high-level uplink signal from overwhelming a low-level uplink
signal
When a timeslot is allocated to two calls that have a large difference in uplink signal
strength, the call with a higher-level uplink signal is handed over to another timeslot to
prevent affecting the call with a lower-level uplink signal.
l Peak clipping on activated channels
The total transmit power required by all calls in a timeslot may exceed the maximum power
supported by the PA. When this occurs, peak clipping is performed on activated channels
to avoid damage to radio frequency (RF) devices.
3.2 Initial Channel Allocation

During a call setup, the BSC allocates a proper channel according to the power required by the
call.
1. Based on the value of CHPWRINSUFFALLOWED, the BSC determines whether to

allocate an idle channel in a timeslot with insufficient remaining power to a newly initiated
call.
l When CHPWRINSUFFALLOWED is set to NO(No), the BSC will not allocate an
idle channel in a timeslot with insufficient remaining power to a newly initiated call.
A timeslot is considered to have insufficient remaining power for a newly initiated call
when the timeslot meets the following condition:
(Power required by the newly initiated call + Power required by all set up calls in the
timeslot) > (Maximum output power of the PA + TSPWRRESERVE)
l When CHPWRINSUFFALLOWED is set to YES(Yes), an idle channel in a timeslot
with insufficient remaining power is allocated to a newly initiated call.
2. The BSC determines the priorities of idle channels based on the power required by the call
and the remaining power on the timeslots occupied by the idle channels. Then, it allocates
an idle channel with the highest priority to a newly initiated call.
l When MCPAOPTALG is set to OFF(Off), the BSC determines the priorities of idle
channels based on the remaining power of its timeslot.
l When MCPAOPTALG is set to ON(on), the BSC determines the priorities of idle channels
based on the number of idle channels in the timeslot and the remaining power of the timeslot.

GSM BSS
– When there is only one idle channel in a timeslot, the priority of the idle channel is
negatively related to the absolute value of the difference between the remaining power
of the timeslot and the power required by the newly initiated call.
– When there is more than one idle channel in a timeslot, the priorities of the idle channels
are positively related to the remaining power of the timeslot.
3.3 Handover Triggered by Insufficient Downlink Power

The BSC measures the total power of each timeslot every 0.5 second. If a timeslot has total
power insufficiency for longer than a duration specified by QTRUDNPWRLASTTIME in the
time specified by QTRUDNPWRSTATTIME, higher-power calls are handed over to another
timeslot. The intra-cell handover is preferentially performed. If no timeslot in the cell meets the
handover conditions, an inter-cell handover is performed.
Handover Triggering Conditions

A handover is performed when the following conditions are met:
l The total power of the timeslot is insufficient. That is, Total power of the timeslot >
Maximum output power of the PA + OUTHOPWROVERLOADTHRESHOLD
l The P/N criterion is met. That is, the total power insufficiency of the timeslot lasts for a
duration specified by QTRUDNPWRLASTTIMEin the time specified by
QTRUDNPWRSTATTIME.
Call-Specific Conditions for a Handover

l The channel originally allocated to the call is not on a broadcast control channel (BCCH)
carrier.
l A full-rate call is preferentially handed over.
l A handover is preferentially performed for the call with the highest downlink power
requirement among all calls allocated non-BCCH-carrier channels.
Target Cell Selection

l The target channel of an intra-cell handover must meet the following requirement:
Power required by all activated channels in the same timeslot of the target channel + Power
required by the call to be handed over ≤ Maximum output power of the PA +
INHOPWROVERLOADTHRESHOLD
l The target cell of an inter-cell handover must meet the following requirement:
Signal strength of the target cell – Signal strength of the serving cell
>INTERCELLHYST - BQMARGIN
3.4 Handover Preventing a High-Level Uplink Signal from

Overwhelming a Low-Level Uplink Signal
If the uplink signal level difference between two calls exceeds 90 dB and the two calls occupy
two channels in the same timeslot, the lower-level uplink signal will be overwhelmed by the
higher-level signal. When this occurs, the quality of the call with the lower-level uplink signal
will deteriorate and a call drop may occur. Therefore, calls with greatly different uplink signal
levels must not be allocated to the same timeslot.

GSM BSS
When QTRUCHANMANGSWITCH is set to YES(Yes), the BSC measures the difference

between uplink signal levels every 0.5 second. If the highest uplink signal level of a timeslot is
90 dB higher than the uplink signal level reported by the current channel, the situation is recorded.
If this situation lasts for a duration specified by UPRXLEVLASTTIME in the time specified by
UPRXLEVSTATICTIME, higher-level calls are handed over to another timeslot.
3.5 Peak Clipping on Activated Channels

To ensure that a PA functions properly, the BTS performs peak clipping to reduce the transmit
power of all calls on a timeslot when the total power of all calls on this timeslot exceeds the
maximum output power of the PA.
Dynamic Power Sharing reduces the impact of peak clipping on call quality by properly
allocating channels.
When the total downlink power required by all activated channels in a timeslot exceeds the total
power of a PA, peak clipping is required for activated channels to avoid damage to RF devices.
With peak clipping, some power of the activated channels is allocated to new calls. This ensures
successful access of new calls and prevents overload of a timeslot (or instantaneous overload is
allowed) while limiting the decrease in network quality.

5 Impact on the Network
5.1 Impact on System Capacity

The Dynamic Power Sharing feature improves network coverage and network capacity.
5.2 Impact on Network Performance

If the power of a timeslot is insufficient after this feature is enabled, the BSC hands over calls
on this timeslot to other timeslots. This increases the number of handovers in a cell.
When the power required by a call on the timeslot exceeds the maximum transmit power of a
transceiver (TRX) module, the TRX module performs peak clipping. This may decrease the PS
throughput, increase the call drop rate, and reduce the mean opinion score (MOS).

Description 6 Engineering Guidelines
6 Engineering Guidelines
6.1 When to Use Dynamic Power Sharing

l When the sites or cells involved in network swap do not meet the requirements in Table
6-1 use static power because the Dynamic Power Sharing feature will negatively affect the
key performance indicators (KPIs) of the network.
l When the sites or cells involved in network swap meet the requirements in Table 6-1 and
static power cannot meet the power requirement of the original network, enable this feature.
l If the cell cabinet-top power is lower than the static power before network swap, do not
enable this feature after network swap. Instead, adjust the power configuration based on
the static power. This is to ensure that the power before the network swap matches that
after the network swap and to ensure that the network quality does not decline after the
network swap.

Method of Calculating FR Load

In 1x3 frequency reuse mode, the frequency resource load (FR load) of the network is the ratio
of the number of TRXs to the number of frequencies available for frequency hopping. In other
frequency reuse modes, the FR load is calculated as an equivalent of the FR load in 1x3 frequency
reuse mode. The method of calculating the FR load is as follows:
1. Obtain the frequency planning principle and calculate the total number of available
frequencies.
Generally, BCCHs adopt loose frequency reuse and TCHs adopt tight frequency reuse.
Therefore, the FR load only needs to be calculated TCHs, which means that the number of
BCCH frequencies needs to be subtracted from the total number of available frequencies.
2. Calculate the number of TRXs in each cell based on network engineering parameters, and
obtain the number of BCCH frequencies that needs to be subtracted from the total number
of available frequencies.
The following formula is used to calculate the FR load for a cell: FR load = (Number of
TRXs -1)/(Number of available TCH frequencies/3)
For example:
In a network that uses baseband frequency hopping and 94 frequencies of P-GSM 19 MHz, the
BCCH adopts the 6x3 frequency reuse mode with two protective frequencies. No frequency is
reserved for indoor coverage.
If there are seven TRXs in a cell, the FR Load of the cell is calculated as follows:
FR load = (7 – 1)/{[94 – (6 x 3 + 2)/3]} = 24.3%
Method of Calculating the Distance Between Sites

Calculate the distance between a site and its nearest neighboring site based on their longitudes
and latitudes.
The detailed calculation method is as follows (when the following conditions are met):
The longitudes and latitudes of the two sites are (Lon1, Lat1) and (Lon2, Lat2).
l x = (Lon2 - Lon1) x Π x R x Cos{[(Lat1 + Lat2) / 2] x Π/ 180} / 180
l y = (Lat2 - Lat1) x Π x R / 180
Then, the distance between the sites is:

Where, R (radius of the Earth) = 6.371229 x 1000000 and Π = 3.14159265.
Method of Calculating the Traffic Volume on Each Channel of a Cell

Traffic volume on each channel of a cell = Traffic Volume on TCH/Available TCHs

GSM BSS
l This formula is used to calculate the traffic volume on each channel of a Huawei GSM cell.
The counters Traffic Volume on TCH and Available TCHs in the formula can be extracted
from BSC traffic statistics. If you want to calculate the traffic volume on each channel of
a cell from other vendors, obtain the appropriate formulas.
6.2 Information to Be Collected

Obtain the maximum output power of TRX modules in a cell, the number of carriers configured
on each TRX module, and the power of each carrier to determine whether to enable this feature.
If the total power of all carriers configured on a TRX module exceeds the maximum output
power of the TRX module, enable this feature. Otherwise, do not enable this feature.

After this feature is enabled, pay attention to KPIs such as call drop rates, handover success
rates, assignment success rates, and congestion rates.

GSM BSS
l Assignment and access

If the congestion rate increases after this feature is enabled, check whether the increase is
caused by an increase in the proportions of the counters Number of Times Power OverLoad
and Number of TCH Allocation Failures (Power Deficit). If so, set
CHPWRINSUFFALLOWED to YES(Yes).
l Peak clipping
If Number of MRs on Downlink TCH (Mean Receive Quality Rank 6) and Number of MRs
on Downlink TCH (Mean Receive Quality Rank 7) increase notably after this feature is
enabled, observe the following counters:
– Number of Timeslots with Power Decreased by 0.5 dB
– Number of Timeslots with Power Decreased by 3.0 dB or Higher
The number of peak clipping times is an indication of the power sharing effect. If the
number of peak clipping times increases, check whether channel configuration and
power control parameters have been adjusted, and continue to observe handover
counters related to power insufficiency.
l Handovers due to power insufficiency
Counters of this type indicate the number of handovers due to power insufficiency and the
success rate of such handovers.
– If excess handovers are performed due to power insufficiency and the handover success
rate is low, the overall handover success rate may decrease. In this case, decrease the
value for OUTHOPWROVERLOADTHRESHOLD and increase the value for
INHOPWROVERLOADTHRESHOLD.
– If only a few handovers are performed due to power insufficiency, peak clipping may
be triggered too many times. In this case, increase the value for
OUTHOPWROVERLOADTHRESHOLD and decrease the value for
INHOPWROVERLOADTHRESHOLD.
