Carrier Aggregation Feature Parameter Description 2 Overview
2 Overview
2.1 Introduction
3GPP requires that LTE-Advanced networks provide a downlink peak data rate of 1 Gbit/s.
However, radio spectrum resources are so scarce that in most cases operators own only non-
adjacent portions of the spectrum. Due to the limited bandwidth of a single portion of the
spectrum, the 1 Gbit/s data rate requirement is hard to meet.
To deal with this situation, 3GPP Release 10 introduced carrier aggregation (CA) for LTE-
Advanced networks. CA allows aggregation of contiguous or non-contiguous component
carriers (CCs) to expand bandwidth to up to 100 MHz, as shown in Figure 2-1.
Figure 2-1 CA for UEs
Huawei eNodeBs support two configuration modes: CA-group-based and adaptive CA.
Unless otherwise stated, the descriptions in this document apply to both modes. For details
about the configuration modes, see 3.2.1 Overview.
2.2 Benefits
CA achieves wider bandwidths and allows a CA-capable UE (referred to as a CA UE in this
document) to use idle resource blocks (RBs) on a non-contiguous spectrum. With CA
enabled, a single UE can reach higher uplink and downlink peak data rates.
Table 2-1 and Table 2-2 list the theoretical peak data rates that downlink and uplink CA can
reach. These values are based on the assumption that the TBS suitable for the 20 MHz cell
bandwidth (equivalent to 100 RBs in the frequency domain) is used.

values.
2.3 Architecture
Functional Architecture
The functional architecture for CA includes primary component carrier (PCC) anchoring,
SCell configuration, and transitions between SCell states. For details, see 3.2 Carrier
Management. This architecture also includes special implementation of other features under
CA, as described in 3.3 Other Key Techniques Under CA.
Huawei CA operates in accordance with the following constraints, which are stipulated in
3GPP TS 36.300 of Release 10:
l In the uplink or downlink, a CA UE can have up to five CCs aggregated, with each CC
having a maximum bandwidth of 20 MHz.
l CA UEs support asymmetric CA. A UE may use different numbers of CCs in the uplink
and downlink. However, the number of CCs in the downlink must always be greater than
or equal to the number of CCs in the uplink. In addition, the uplink CCs must be
included in the set of downlink CCs.
l Each CC uses the same frame structure as 3GPP Release 8 carriers, ensuring backward
compatibility.
l 3GPP Release 8 or 9 UEs are allowed to transmit and receive data on Release 10 CCs.

eRAN
Protocol Stack Architecture

The uplink and downlink air-interface protocol stack with CA enabled has the following
characteristics:
l Each radio bearer has only one Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) entity and
one Radio Link Control (RLC) entity. In addition, the number of CCs at the physical
layer is invisible from the RLC layer.
l User-plane data scheduling at the Media Access Control (MAC) layer is performed
separately for individual CCs.
l Each CC has an independent set of Uu interface transport channels, as well as separate
hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) entities and retransmission processes.
Figure 2-2 shows the protocol stack.

Carrier Aggregation Feature Parameter Description 3 Technical Description
3 Technical Description
3.1 Function Overview
3.1.1 Related Concepts
PCell
A primary serving cell (PCell) is a cell on which a CA UE camps. In the PCell, the CA UE
works in the same way as it does in a 3GPP Release 8 or Release 9 cell. The physical uplink
control channel (PUCCH) of the UE exists only in the PCell.
For more details, see 3.3.1 Connection Management Under CA.
SCell
A secondary serving cell (SCell) is a cell that an eNodeB configures for a CA UE through an
RRC Connection Reconfiguration message. This cell works at a different frequency than the
PCell and provides the CA UE with more radio resources. In an SCell, there can be only
downlink transmission or both downlink and uplink transmission.
CC
Component carriers (CCs) are the carriers that are aggregated for a CA UE.
PCC
The primary component carrier (PCC) is the carrier of the PCell.
SCC
A secondary component carrier (SCC) is the carrier of an SCell.
PCC Anchoring
During PCC anchoring, the eNodeB selects a high-priority cell as the PCell for the UE.

eRAN
Related Events
l Event A1
The signal quality of the serving cell exceeds a specific threshold.
l Event A2
The signal quality of the serving cell drops below a specific threshold.
l Event A3
The signal quality of the PCell's neighboring cell exceeds that of the PCell.
l Event A4
The signal quality of a neighboring cell exceeds a specific threshold.
l Event A5
The signal quality of the PCell drops below threshold 1 and the signal quality of a
neighboring cell exceeds threshold 2.
When CA is enabled, the CaA5HoEventSwitch option of the
ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter affects measurement configuration. This
option specifies whether to change event A4 to event A5 in the handover-related inter-
frequency measurement configurations delivered to CA UEs.
If this option is selected, the eNodeB changes event A4 to event A5 when both the
network and the UE support CA. Threshold 1 for event A5 always takes the value of –
43 dBm.
NOTE
When the EutranInterNFreq.InterFreqHoEventType parameter is set to EventA5, threshold 1

for event A5 that triggers coverage-based inter-frequency handovers also takes a fixed value of –
43 dBm.
If this option is deselected:
– The eNodeB changes event A4 to event A5 for the following inter-frequency
handover types if SCells have been configured for the CA UEs: coverage-based
handover, uplink-quality-based handover, distance-based handover, handover for
UE transfer in the event of carrier disabling, handover for unlimited-service (US)
UE assurance, outgoing handover of non-US UEs, and load-based handover.
– The eNodeB delivers measurement configurations related to the handover event
determined by relevant algorithms, without changing event A4 to event A5, for the
following handover types: frequency-priority-based handover, service-based
handover, SPID-based handover back to the HPLMN, eMBMS-interest-based
handover, and speed-based handover.
l Event A6
The signal quality of an SCell's intra-frequency neighboring cell exceeds that of the
SCell. After receiving an event A6 report, the eNodeB changes the SCell to a new one
while keeping the PCell unchanged.
The entering condition for event A6 is: Mn + Ocn – Hys > Ms + Ocs + Off, where:
– Mn is the reference signal received power (RSRP) measurement result of a
neighboring cell.
– Ocn is the cell-specific offset for the neighboring cell. The offset is specified by the
EutranInterFreqNCell.CellIndividualOffset parameter.
– Hys is the hysteresis for event A6. The value of this variable is always 1 dB.
– Ms is the RSRP measurement result of the serving cell.

eRAN
– Ocs is the cell-specific offset for the serving cell. The offset is specified by the
Cell.CellSpecificOffset parameter.
– Off is the offset for event A6. The offset is specified by the
CaMgtCfg.CarrAggrA6Offset parameter.
For details about events A1 to A5, see Intra-RAT Mobility Management in Connected Mode
Feature Parameter Description. For details about event A6, see section 5.5.4.6a "Event A6
(Neighbour becomes offset better than SCell)" in 3GPP TS 36.331 V10.12.0.
NOTE
If the time-to-trigger (specified by the CellMcPara.TimetoTrigger parameter) for any of the preceding
events is set to a value greater than the timer value (3s) for gap-assisted measurements, measurement
results cannot be reported.
Typically, measurement gap configurations are delivered by eNodeBs to UEs. An exception is that if
AutoGapSwitch under the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.HoModeSwitch parameter is on for an eNodeB, the
eNodeB identifies UEs that support autonomous gaps and no longer delivers measurement gap
configurations to these UEs.
3.1.2 Usage Scenarios
3.1.2.1 Intra-eNodeB CA Scenarios

Annex J in 3GPP TS 36.300 of Release 10 defines five intra-eNodeB CA scenarios, which
use two CCs as an example. Table 3-1 lists the five scenarios and describes when Huawei
eNodeBs support the scenarios.

3.1.2.2 Inter-eNodeB CA Scenarios

In addition to protocol-defined intra-eNodeB CA scenarios, Huawei CA works in the
following inter-eNodeB scenarios:
l eNodeB coordination
The CA feature involved is LAOFD-070202 Inter-eNodeB CA based on Coordinated
eNodeB. This feature implements CA between cells served by different eNodeBs that are
coordinated and collaborate with each other. For details, see 3.1.3.4 LAOFD-070202
Inter-eNodeB CA based on Coordinated eNodeB.
l Relaxed backhaul
The CA feature involved is LAOFD-080201 Inter-eNodeB CA based on Relaxed
backhaul. This feature implements CA between inter-eNodeB cells in scenarios with
relaxed backhaul requirements for delay (referred to as relaxed backhaul scenarios in this
document). For details, see 3.1.3.5 LAOFD-080201 Inter-eNodeB CA based on
Relaxed backhaul.
3.1.3 CA Features
CA enables a UE to simultaneously access more than one carrier and transmit uplink (UL)
data and receive downlink (DL) data over all carriers, greatly increasing the data rate of the
UE.

3.1.3.1 LAOFD-001001 LTE-A Introduction

This feature includes the following sub-features:
l LAOFD-00100101 Intra-Band Carrier Aggregation for Downlink 2CC in 20MHz

Intra-band CA aggregates two carriers in a single frequency band for downlink data
transmission to a single CA UE. Intra-band CA is further classified into contiguous CA
and non-contiguous CA, as shown in Figure 3-6.
Figure 3-6 Intra-band downlink 2CC aggregation to 20 MHz

eRAN
The time alignment error between two intra-band contiguous or non-contiguous CCs
must be less than 130 ns and 260 ns, respectively. If this requirement cannot be fulfilled,
there may be a small gap to the optimal feature performance.
This sub-feature allows aggregation of carriers to a maximum of 20 MHz for a CA UE.
For the supported band combinations, see 3.1.4 Band Combinations.
l LAOFD-00100102 Inter-Band Carrier Aggregation for Downlink 2CC in 20MHz
Inter-band CA aggregates two carriers from different frequency bands for downlink data
transmission to a single CA UE, as shown in Figure 3-7.
Figure 3-7 Inter-band downlink 2CC aggregation to 20 MHz
The time alignment error between two inter-band CCs must be less than 260 ns.
This sub-feature allows aggregation of carriers to a maximum of 20 MHz for a CA UE.
For the supported band combinations, see 3.1.4 Band Combinations.
This feature works between intra-eNodeB cells, between inter-eNodeB cells in eNodeB
coordination scenarios, and between inter-eNodeB cells in relaxed backhaul scenarios. For
details about these scenarios, see 3.1.2 Usage Scenarios.
3.1.3.2 LAOFD-001002 Carrier Aggregation for Downlink 2CC in 40MHz

This feature allows a maximum of 40 MHz downlink bandwidth for a CA UE. By aggregating
two contiguous or non-contiguous carriers, as shown in Figure 3-8, operators can provide
higher bandwidths and improve service experience for CA UEs.
Figure 3-8 Downlink 2CC aggregation
In CA-group-based configuration mode, this feature is not under switch control.

eRAN
In adaptive configuration mode, this feature is controlled by the CaDl2CCExtSwitch option

of the CAMGTCFG.CellCaAlgoSwitch parameter.
This feature allows aggregation of carriers to a maximum of 40 MHz for a CA UE. For the
supported band combinations, see 3.1.4 Band Combinations.
3.1.3.3 LAOFD-070201 Flexible CA from Multiple Carriers

This feature allows an eNodeB to select the most suitable carriers for downlink CA from a
larger number of candidate carriers, as shown in Figure 3-9. The selections are based on the
CA capability reported by the CA UE and on carrier management principles.
Figure 3-9 Flexible CA
During initial access, an incoming handover, or an RRC connection reestablishment, the CA

UE reports its CA capability to the eNodeB after setting up an RRC connection with the
PCell. The eNodeB selects a suitable carrier as an SCC for the CA UE based on the carrier
deployment and the carrier management principles described in 3.2 Carrier Management.
In CA-group-based configuration mode, this feature is not under switch control.
In adaptive configuration mode, this feature is controlled by the MultiCarrierFlexCaSwitch

option of the CAMGTCFG.CellCaAlgoSwitch parameter.
l If this option is selected, the eNodeB can currently select one, two, three, or four SCCs
from a larger number of candidate carriers. It can select four SCCs from a maximum of
eight inter-frequency carriers.
l If this option is deselected, the eNodeB does not select SCCs from a larger number of
candidate carriers. Instead, it includes a limited number of frequencies, based on the SCC
priorities specified by the SccFreqCfg.SccPriority parameter, in the A4 measurement
configuration delivered to the UE. This number is the same as the number of SCCs
supported by the UE.
This feature allows for intelligent selection of serving cell (PCell and SCell) combinations
when adaptive configuration is used. The eNodeB selects the most suitable serving cell
combination for a UE based on the CA capability reported by the UE and based on factors
such as the coverage overlap between cells, cell load status, bandwidths, and spectral
efficiency. The eNodeB then informs the UE of the combination. From the combination, the
eNodeB will select a cell as the PCell for the UE, as described in 3.2.2.2 Adaptive PCC
Anchoring. This intelligent selection function is controlled by the CaSmartSelectionSwitch
option of the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter. It is triggered in the following
scenarios:

eRAN
l The eNodeB has received the capability of a UE that newly accesses a cell served by the
eNodeB.
l An E-RAB, with a QCI for which the SMART_CA_ALLOWED option of the
CellQciPara.QciAlgoSwitch parameter is selected, has been set up. In this situation, the
eNodeB selects the most suitable serving cell combination for the UE again.
When selecting a serving cell combination, the eNodeB adheres to the following rules:
l It selects inter-frequency neighboring cells that overlap the current serving cell.
For example, the eNodeB selects an inter-frequency neighboring cell that meets one of
the following conditions:
– The EutranInterFreqNCell.OverlapInd parameter is set to YES.
– The CaGroupSCellCfg.SCellBlindCfgFlag parameter is set to TRUE. In this case,
this neighboring cell is a blind-configurable candidate SCell for the serving cell.
If no inter-frequency neighboring cells meet these conditions, the intelligent selection
function does not take effect.
NOTE
l When CaSmartSelectionSwitch under the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter is

changed from off to on, it takes 3 minutes for the intelligent selection function to take effect.
l If the setting of EutranInterFreqNCell.OverlapInd, the setting of
CaGroupSCellCfg.SCellBlindCfgFlag, or the inter-frequency neighbor relationship is
updated, it takes 3 minutes for the update to be recognized.
l It avoids selecting inter-frequency neighboring cells in a high-load state.
The eNodeB considers such a cell to be in a high-load state if the number of UL-
synchronized UEs in the cell is greater than or equal to the sum of
CellMLB.InterFreqMlbUeNumThd and CellMLB.InterFrqUeNumOffloadOffset that
are specified for the current serving cell.
l It selects the serving cell combination that has the highest total air-interface servicing
capability.
For details about how to calculate the air-interface servicing capability of cells, see Intra-
RAT Mobility Load Balancing Feature Parameter Description. Note that this intelligent
selection function does not require the SpectralEffBasedLoadEvalSw option of the
CellAlgoSwitch.EnhancedMlbAlgoSwitch parameter to be selected for the calculation.
If two combinations have the same total air-interface servicing capability, the eNodeB
considers PCC or SCC priorities for the selection.
If CA has been deployed with PCC anchoring enabled before this intelligent selection
function is activated, the serving cell combinations selected after the function activation might
be different from those selected before the activation. As a result, the CA UE distribution may
change.
NOTE
l If a noticeable imbalance occurs between carriers, it is recommended that intra-RAT MLB be

enabled to decrease the imbalance before CA. If MLB is not enabled, a serving cell combination
with a high air-interface servicing capability may have attracted a large number of UEs, thereby
affecting CA UEs' experience.
l When the intelligent selection function and duplex-mode-priority-based PCC anchoring are enabled,
the eNodeB selects PCells for CA UEs preferentially from the candidates of the high-priority duplex
mode. For details about this PCC anchoring function, see 3.2.4 Duplex-Mode-Priority-based PCC
Anchoring.

eRAN
3.1.3.4 LAOFD-070202 Inter-eNodeB CA based on Coordinated eNodeB

This feature allows downlink 2CC to 5CC aggregation and uplink 2CC aggregation between
cells served by coordinated eNodeBs.
There are two types of eNodeB coordination scenarios: centralized and distributed.
l In centralized scenarios, the eNodeBs exchange signaling messages and transmit service
data through one or two levels of universal switching units (USUs).
l In distributed scenarios, a Universal inter-Connection Combo Unit (UCCU) board is
installed in the BBU of each eNodeB and connected to a USU through an optical cable
for signaling exchange and data transmission between the eNodeBs. CA in these
scenarios requires an inter-eNodeB round trip time (RTT) of less than 260 μs.
Figure 3-10 shows an example of the centralized and distributed scenarios.
For details about centralized eNodeB coordination, see USU3900-based Multi-BBU

Interconnection Feature Parameter Description or USU3910-based Multi-BBU
Interconnection Feature Parameter Description.
For details about distributed eNodeB coordination, see USU3910-based Multi-BBU

Interconnection Feature Parameter Description.
Figure 3-10 Inter-eNodeB CA based on Coordinated eNodeB
This inter-eNodeB CA feature employs the same procedures as intra-eNodeB CA for PCC
anchoring, SCell configuration, SCell change, SCell activation, SCell deactivation, and SCell
removal. For details about these procedures, see 3.2 Carrier Management.
3.1.3.5 LAOFD-080201 Inter-eNodeB CA based on Relaxed backhaul

This feature allows downlink 2CC to 5CC aggregation and uplink 2CC aggregation between
cells served by a combination of eNodeBs in relaxed backhaul scenarios.
The eNodeB combination can be one of the following:
l Macro+macro
l Macro+LampSite
l LampSite+LampSite
l Macro+micro
l LampSite+micro
Among cells served by these micro eNodeBs:

eRAN
l Only those served by BTS3911Es and BTS3912Es can act as PCells for this feature and
support downlink 3CC to 5CC aggregation and uplink 2CC aggregation.
When a cell served by a BTS3911E or BTS3912E acts as the PCell for a CA UE, the
following constraints apply due to a total eNodeB transmission capability of 600 Mbit/s:
– If the data rate of transmission from the EPC to the eNodeB exceeds the total
eNodeB transmission capability, the PCell cannot transfer data to SCells. As a
result, the SCells may be activated but their scheduling is suspended.
– If the data rate of transmission from the EPC to the eNodeB does not exceed the
total eNodeB transmission capability, the difference between the two values
determines the rate of data transfer from the PCell to SCells. The amount of data
transferred to the SCells may be insufficient, so that the peak data rate of the UE
does not reach its theoretical value.
l Those served by BTS3202Es and BTS3203Es cannot act as PCells for this feature. They
support downlink 2CC aggregation only.
These scenarios are classified into two types depending on the one-way delay and RTT:
l Delay ≤ 4 ms and RTT ≤ 8 ms
l 4 ms < delay ≤ 8 ms and 8 ms < RTT ≤ 16 ms (Uplink CA does not work in this
scenario.)
CA works in this scenario only if the RelaxedBHCaEnhanceSwitch option of the
ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter is selected for the serving eNodeB of the
PCell.
During CA between cells served by macro+macro, macro+LampSite, or LampSite+LampSite
eNodeBs, the cells exchange signaling messages and data through eX2 interfaces between the
main control boards (LMPT or UMPT) of the eNodeBs.
During CA between cells served by macro+micro or LampSite+micro eNodeBs, the cells
exchange signaling messages and data through eX2 interfaces between the main control board
(LMPT or UMPT) of the macro or LampSite eNodeB and the transport module of the micro
eNodeB.
For details about eX2 interfaces between eNodeBs, see eX2 Self-Management Feature
Parameter Description.
Figure 3-11 shows an example of the network with this CA feature enabled.
Figure 3-11 Inter-eNodeB CA in relaxed backhaul scenarios
The CA procedure is as follows:

1. During initial access, an incoming handover, or an RRC connection reestablishment, the
CA UE reports its CA capability to the eNodeB after setting up an RRC connection with
the PCell.

eRAN
2. The eNodeB checks the related switch settings, the status of the eX2 interface to a peer
eNodeB, and inter-eNodeB transmission delay. If all the conditions meet their respective
requirements, the local eNodeB selects carriers of the peer eNodeBs as SCCs for the CA
UE.
The following are switch setting requirements:
– If the eNodeBs are macro+macro, macro+LampSite, or LampSite+LampSite
eNodeBs, RelaxedBackhaulCaSwitch under the
ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter must be on for all the eNodeBs.
– If the eNodeBs are macro+micro or LampSite+micro eNodeBs,
RelaxedBackhaulCaSwitch under the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch
parameter must be on for all the eNodeBs, and HetNetCaSwitch under this
parameter must also be on for the micro eNodeBs (except BTS3911Es and
BTS3912Es).
In addition to the basic switch setting requirements, the following parameter settings are
required for the eNodeB serving the PCell:
– Downlink 2CC aggregation requires that the
CaMgtCfg.RelaxedBackhaulCaMaxCcNum parameter be set to 2CC.
– Downlink 3CC, 4CC, or 5CC aggregation requires that CaDl3CCSwitch,
CaDl4CCSwitch, or CaDl5CCSwitch be on under the
CaMgtCfg.CellCaAlgoSwitch parameter and the
CaMgtCfg.RelaxedBackhaulCaMaxCcNum parameter be set to 3CC, 4CC, or
5CC.
– Uplink CA requires that CaUl2CCSwitch be on under the
CaMgtCfg.CellCaAlgoSwitch parameter and the
CaMgtCfg.RelaxedBHCaUlMaxCCNum parameter be set to 2CC.
3. After activating the SCells, the eNodeB serving the PCell will divert downlink traffic of
the CA UE from the PCell to the SCells and converge the uplink traffic from the SCells
with the uplink traffic in the PCell. When inter-eNodeB transmission quality deteriorates
(for example, the transmission delay does not meet requirements or transmission is
interrupted), the eNodeB removes the SCells to exit inter-eNodeB CA. The eNodeB may
configure SCells again at UE access, an incoming handover, or an RRC connection
reestablishment after transmission quality recovers.
3GPP Release 10 specifications stipulate that downlink-data demodulation results (ACK or
NACK) must be reported over the PCC of each CA UE. In a relaxed backhaul scenario, the
eNodeB that provides an SCC for a CA UE estimates the CQI, NACK, and scheduling
priority to determine the scheduling occasion and resources for the UE in advance without
affecting the scheduling priority policy and fairness among UEs. This prevents inter-eNodeB
CA failures caused by transmission delay.
This feature requires time synchronization between eNodeBs and the synchronization
accuracy must be within 3 μs. It also requires that the jitter and packet loss rate meet the
requirements described in S1 and X2 Self-Management Feature Parameter Description.
With this feature, the PCell supports LBFD-060103 Enhanced DL Frequency Selective
Scheduling but SCells do not.
This inter-eNodeB CA feature employs the same procedures as intra-eNodeB CA for PCC
anchoring, SCell activation, SCell change, and SCell deactivation, as described in 3.2 Carrier
Management. This type of inter-eNodeB CA implements SCell configuration and SCell
removal as described in both the current section (with inter-eNodeB transmission quality
requirements taken into consideration) and 3.2 Carrier Management.

eRAN
3.1.3.6 LAOFD-080202 Carrier Aggregation for Uplink 2CC

This feature allows a maximum of 40 MHz uplink bandwidth for a CA UE. By aggregating
two intra- or inter-band carriers, as shown in Figure 3-12, operators can provide higher
bandwidths and improve service quality for UEs.
Figure 3-12 Uplink 2CC aggregation
This feature allows aggregation of carriers to a maximum of 40 MHz for a CA UE in the

uplink. For the supported band combinations, see 3.1.4 Band Combinations.
This feature is dependent on the uplink CA capabilities of UEs and the setting of
CaUl2CCSwitch under the CaMgtCfg.CellCaAlgoSwitch parameter. It requires
LAOFD-001001 LTE-A Introduction to be activated. Therefore, after LAOFD-080202 is
enabled, two carriers can be aggregated for both uplink and downlink transmission.
3.1.3.7 LAOFD-080207 Carrier Aggregation for Downlink 3CC in 40MHz and

LAOFD-080208 Carrier Aggregation for Downlink 3CC in 60MHz
These features allow a maximum of 40 MHz or 60 MHz downlink bandwidth for a CA UE.
By aggregating three intra- or inter-band carriers, as shown in Figure 3-13, operators can
provide higher bandwidths and improve service quality for UEs.

eRAN
If the aggregated bandwidth of three CCs does not exceed 40 MHz, downlink 3CC
aggregation is subject to the downlink CA capabilities of UEs and the setting of
CaDl3CCSwitch under the CaMgtCfg.CellCaAlgoSwitch parameter, regardless of whether
CA-group-based or adaptive configuration is used.
If the aggregated bandwidth of three CCs is between 40 MHz and 60 MHz (inclusive) and
adaptive configuration is used, downlink 3CC aggregation is subject to the downlink CA
capabilities of UEs and the settings of CaDl3CCSwitch and CaDl3CCExtSwitch under the
CaMgtCfg.CellCaAlgoSwitch parameter.
When three downlink CCs are aggregated for a CA UE, periodic channel state information
(CSI) reports can be transmitted together with ACK/NACK for the three CCs if the
CqiAdaptiveCfg.SimulAckNackAndCqiFmt3Sw parameter is set to ON. If this parameter is
set to OFF, the simultaneous transmission is not allowed for three CCs.
These features work between intra-eNodeB cells, between inter-eNodeB cells in eNodeB
3.1.3.8 LEOFD-110303 Carrier Aggregation for Downlink 4CC and 5CC

This feature allows a maximum of 100 MHz downlink bandwidth for a CA UE. By
aggregating four or five intra- or inter-band carriers, operators can provide higher bandwidths
and improve service quality for UEs. Figure 3-14 illustrates downlink 4CC aggregation.

eRAN
This feature allows aggregation of carriers to a maximum of 100 MHz for a CA UE in the
downlink. For the supported band combinations, see 3.1.4 Band Combinations.
This feature is dependent on the downlink CA capabilities of UEs and the settings of
CaDl4CCSwitch and CaDl5CCSwitch under the CaMgtCfg.CellCaAlgoSwitch parameter.
To use downlink 5CC aggregation, CaDl4CCSwitch and CaDl5CCSwitch must be both on.
When this feature is enabled, periodic CSI reports can be transmitted together with ACK/
NACK for four or five CCs at a time if the CqiAdaptiveCfg.SimulAckNackAndCqiFmt3Sw
parameter is set to ON(On). If this parameter is set to OFF(Off), the simultaneous
transmission is not allowed for four or five CCs.
3.1.3.9 MRFD-101222 FDD+TDD Downlink Carrier Aggregation(LTE FDD)

This feature allows aggregation of two, three, four, or five downlink FDD and TDD CCs. It
deals with spectrum shortages by utilizing both FDD and TDD spectrum resources, addresses
mobile broadband service competitions, and improves service quality. Figure 3-15 illustrates
this feature with five downlink CCs being aggregated to the maximum bandwidth supported:
100 MHz.

eRAN
Figure 3-15 Downlink FDD+TDD CA
The theoretical peak downlink data rate varies depending on the number of FDD and TDD
CCs in the downlink, as described in Table 3-3.

carrier
5 Total peak data rate on four FDD carriers + peak data rate of a single TDD
carrier
In this feature, either FDD or TDD carriers can be PCCs of CA UEs. TDD cells for CA must
use uplink-downlink configuration 1 or 2 and one of special subframe configurations 4, 5, 6,
7, and 9. A TDD cell using special subframe configuration 4 does not work with another TDD
cell using special subframe configuration 5, 6, 7, or 9 for CA. No subframe configuration
requirements are imposed on FDD cells. If a frame offset is configured for a TDD cell, the
same frame offset must be specified for the FDD cells involved in CA.
NOTE
TDD cells served by LampSite eNodeBs can only use special subframe configurations 6 and 7. For
subframe configuration principles and engineering guidelines, see Subframe Configuration Feature
Parameter Description in the LTE TDD feature documentation.
The CC combinations for downlink FDD+TDD 5CC aggregation vary according to the
duplex mode of the PCell and the uplink-downlink configuration of TDD cells, as described
in Table 3-4.

This feature is dependent on the downlink CA capabilities of the UEs involved, the setting of
InterFddTddCaSwitch under the CaMgtCfg.CellCaAlgoSwitch parameter, and the setting
of the CaMgtCfg.FddTddCaDlMaxCcNum parameter.
The scenarios where this feature works vary depending on the eNodeB type:
l For macro eNodeBs, this feature works in the following scenarios:
– Intra-eNodeB scenarios
– Centralized eNodeB coordination
– Relaxed backhaul (up to downlink 5CC aggregation between cells served by macro
+macro eNodeBs or by macro+micro eNodeBs. Among micro cells, only those
served by BTS3911Es and BTS3912Es can act as PCells. Those served by
BTS3202Es or BTS3203Es can act only as SCells.)
l For LampSite eNodeBs, this feature works in the following scenarios:
– Relaxed backhaul (up to downlink 5CC aggregation between cells served by
LampSite+LampSite eNodeBs or by LampSite+micro eNodeBs. Among micro
cells, only those served by BTS3911Es and BTS3912Es can act as PCells. Those
served by BTS3202Es or BTS3203Es can act only as SCells.)
For these scenarios:
l Intra-eNodeB scenarios include those described in 3.1.2.1 Intra-eNodeB CA Scenarios
and, for macro eNodeBs, also include FDD+TDD separate-BBU separate-MPT
scenarios.
In FDD+TDD separate-BBU separate-MPT scenarios, FDD and TDD cells are deployed
on separate BBUs, which are interconnected through eX2 interfaces. eX2 interfaces are
divided into the control plane (eX2-C) and user plane (eX2-U).
– As shown in Figure 3-16, eX2-C is carried by the electrical or optical cable
between the UMPT in one eNodeB and the UMPTb or UCIU in the other eNodeB.

eRAN

3.1.3.10 MRFD-111222 FDD+TDD Uplink Carrier Aggregation (LTE FDD)

This feature allows aggregation of uplink FDD and TDD CCs. With this feature, uplink CCs
can be aggregated to a maximum bandwidth of 40 MHz for a CA UE, as shown in Figure
3-18. This feature deals with spectrum shortages by utilizing both FDD and TDD spectrum
resources, addresses mobile broadband service competitions, and improves uplink service
quality.

eRAN
Figure 3-18 Uplink FDD+TDD CA
The TDD cells involved in this feature must use uplink-downlink configuration 2. That is, the
Cell.SubframeAssignment parameter must be set to SA2 for the TDD cells.
This feature is dependent on the uplink CA capabilities of the UEs involved, the setting of
InterFddTddCaSwitch under the CaMgtCfg.CellCaAlgoSwitch parameter, and the setting
of the CaMgtCfg.FddTddCaUlMaxCcNum parameter. For this feature to take effect, set
InterFddTddCaSwitch on and set CaMgtCfg.FddTddCaUlMaxCcNum to 2CC.
The scenarios where this feature works vary depending on the eNodeB type:
l For macro eNodeBs, this feature works in the following scenarios:
– Centralized eNodeB coordination
– Relaxed backhaul (only when one-way delay ≤ 4 ms and RTT ≤ 8 ms)
l For LampSite eNodeBs, this feature works in the following scenarios:
– Relaxed backhaul (only when one-way delay ≤ 4ms and RTT ≤ 8ms)
l For micro eNodeBs, this feature works only in relaxed backhaul scenarios where the
one-way delay is 4 ms or less and RTT does not exceed 8 ms. The micro eNodeBs must
be BTS3911Es or BTS3912Es. Micro cells served by BTS3911Es and BTS3912Es can
act as PCells.
For these scenarios:
l Intra-eNodeB scenarios include those described in 3.1.2.1 Intra-eNodeB CA Scenarios
and, for macro eNodeBs, also include FDD+TDD separate-BBU separate-MPT
scenarios, which are described in 3.1.3.9 MRFD-101222 FDD+TDD Downlink Carrier

3.1.4 Band Combinations

3GPP-defined Band Combinations
eNodeBs of the current version support CA in the band combinations defined in section 5.6A.
1 "Channel bandwidths per operating band for CA" of 3GPP TS 36.101 V13.6.1.
Operator-defined Band Combinations

Operators may own frequency band combinations that have not been defined by 3GPP
specifications. Huawei eRAN8.1 and later support operator-defined band combinations to
meet operator requirements for band combination customization.
The PrivateCaBandComb MO is used to define band combinations for 2CC, 3CC, 4CC, or
5CC aggregation. This MO contains the parameters listed in Table 3-5.

eRAN
Table 3-5 Parameters in the PrivateCaBandComb MO

Parameter ID Parameter Description
PrivateCaBandComb.PrivateCaCombId Identifies an operator-defined CA band

combination. This ID is unique within an
eNodeB.
PrivateCaBandComb.MaxAggregatedBw Specifies the maximum aggregated

bandwidth that the band combination
supports.
PrivateCaBandComb.BwCombSetId Identifies a bandwidth combination set for

the band combination. A band combination
may support multiple bandwidth
combination sets.
PrivateCaBandComb.CombBand1Id Identify the bands in the band combination.

The parameter settings must meet the
PrivateCaBandComb.CombBand2Id following requirement:
PrivateCaBandComb.CombBand3Id PrivateCaBandComb.CombBand1Id ≤
PrivateCaBandComb.CombBand2Id ≤
PrivateCaBandComb.CombBand4Id PrivateCaBandComb.CombBand3Id ≤
PrivateCaBandComb.CombBand4Id ≤
PrivateCaBandComb.CombBand5Id
PrivateCaBandComb.CombBand5Id
PrivateCaBandComb.CombBand1Bw Specify the bandwidth allowed in each

band.

The following are examples of the parameter settings:

l Example 1
ADD PRIVATECABANDCOMB: PrivateCaCombId=5, MaxAggregatedBw=60, BwCombSetId=0,
CombBand1Id=1,
CombBand1Bw=Bandwidth_1_4M-1&Bandwidth_3M-1&Bandwidth_5M-1&Bandwidth_10M-1&Ban
dwidth_15M-1&Bandwidth_20M-1, CombBand2Id=3,
dwidth_15M-1&Bandwidth_20M-1;
l Example 2
ADD PRIVATECABANDCOMB: PrivateCaCombId=1, MaxAggregatedBw=20, BwCombSetId=1,
CombBand1Id=2, CombBand2Id=4, CombBand1Bw= Bandwidth_10M-1, CombBand2Bw=
Bandwidth_10M-1;

eRAN
Whitelist Control over Operator-defined Band Combinations

This whitelist control function is based on terminal differentiation, which identifies UEs that
support band combinations not defined in 3GPP specifications. With these UEs whitelisted,
operator-defined band combinations take effect for CA only at these UEs.
For this function to take effect, operators must run man-machine language (MML) commands
to configure the UE-supported band combinations on eNodeBs.
The operators then must set the UeCompat.WhiteLstCaCombSwitch parameter to the IDs of
the band combinations. For example, if band combinations with
PrivateCaBandComb.PrivateCaCombId of 2 and 3 are defined, the
UeCompat.WhiteLstCaCombSwitch parameter must be set to
PRIVATECACOMBID_2(Private CA Band Combination ID 2) and
PRIVATECACOMBID_3(Private CA Band Combination ID 3) so that the two band
combinations take effect only for whitelisted UEs.
NOTE
l If a 3GPP-defined band combination supported by eNodeBs conflicts with an operator-defined band

combination, the operator-defined one takes precedence. To avoid UE faults caused by conflicts
between 3GPP-defined and operator-defined bandwidth combination sets, operators are advised to
set PrivateCaBandComb.BwCombSetId to be different from any 3GPP-defined set ID.
l If a subset of an operator-defined band combination is not defined in 3GPP specifications or if the
operator has special requirements for band combinations, data reconfiguration will be required.
l Since eRAN8.1, CA has been possible for carriers with the 1.4 MHz or 3 MHz channel bandwidth.
In 1.4 MHz cells, only six RBs are available for the PUCCH. Due to the significant increase in the
PUCCH load of PCells for CA UEs, 1.4 MHz cells cannot act as PCells. FDD+TDD CA cannot be
used in FDD carriers with the 1.4 MHz or 3 MHz channel bandwidth or TDD carriers with the 1.4
MHz, 3 MHz, or 5 MHz channel bandwidth.
l Ensure that no interference exists between the operator-defined bands for FDD+TDD CA. For
details about how to meet the requirement, contact Huawei engineers.
l Band combinations are not direction-specific. Both uplink and downlink CA work with the band
combinations.
3.2 Carrier Management
3.2.1 Overview
Features Involved
Carrier management principles apply to all CA features.
Procedures Involved
Carrier management involves the following procedures for CA UEs:
l PCC anchoring
During PCC anchoring, an eNodeB selects a PCell for a CA UE based on PCell or PCC
priorities. There are two types of PCC anchoring:
– PCC anchoring for connected-mode UEs: occurs when CA UEs access networks at
initial access, incoming handovers, or RRC connection reestablishments. For
details, see 3.2.2 PCC Anchoring for RRC_CONNECTED UEs.

eRAN
– PCC anchoring for idle-mode UEs: occurs when the RRC connections of CA UEs
are released. For details, see 3.2.3 PCC Anchoring for RRC_IDLE UEs.
PCC anchoring can be based on the priorities of duplex modes (as described in 3.2.4
Duplex-Mode-Priority-based PCC Anchoring), based on load (as described in 3.2.6.1
Load-based PCC Anchoring), or based on neither of them.
NOTE
The PCell of a CA UE cannot be deactivated or removed. It changes only during handovers.

l SCell configuration, change, activation, deactivation, and removal
SCell configuration is triggered when a CA UE initiates RRC connection setup in any of
the following scenarios: initial access (when PCC anchoring has finished), an RRC
connection reestablishment, and an incoming handover. For SCell configuration
procedures, see 3.2.5 SCell Configuration. (SCell configuration can be either based on
load, as described in 3.2.6.2 Load-based SCell Configuration, or not.) After an SCell is
configured, it may be changed, activated, deactivated, or removed. For details about
these procedures, see 3.2.7 SCell Change, 3.2.9 SCell Activation, 3.2.10 SCell
Deactivation, and 3.2.11 SCell Removal. CA works only when an SCell is configured
and activated for a CA UE.
Figure 3-19 shows the transitions between the SCell states.
Figure 3-19 SCell state transitions
NOTE
A gap-assisted measurement timer is used in PCC anchoring and SCell configuration for carrier
management. The timer has a fixed length of 3s.
Configuration Mode
CA features work in two configuration modes:
l CA-group-based configuration
To enable this mode, deselect the FreqCfgSwitch option of the
ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter. This mode requires that cells be

eRAN
configured into a CA group, as shown in Figure 3-20, and there be blind-configurable

candidate SCells. Only the cells in the group can be aggregated.
Figure 3-20 CA-group-based configuration
l Adaptive configuration (recommended)

To enable this mode, select both the FreqCfgSwitch and AdpCaSwitch options of the
ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter. This mode is based on frequency
configurations and supports blind SCell configuration, as shown in Figure 3-21.
Therefore, the adaptive mode requires that CaGroupSCellCfg.SCellBlindCfgFlag be
set to TRUE(TRUE) for candidate SCells.
Figure 3-21 Adaptive configuration
NOTE
Adaptive configuration is an enhancement (support for blind SCell configuration) to frequency-

based configuration, which is used in versions earlier than eRAN11.1. If the frequency-based
mode was used on a network with a version earlier than eRAN11.1 and has not been changed to
the adaptive mode after a version upgrade, the frequency-based mode still takes effect, with no
impact on feature principles or engineering.
3.2.2 PCC Anchoring for RRC_CONNECTED UEs

This section describes only the PCC anchoring function controlled by the
EnhancedPccAnchorSwitch option of the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter.
To prioritize certain frequencies as PCCs, an operator can turn on the switch that controls
PCC anchoring for RRC_CONNECTED UEs and set high PCell or PCC priorities so that the
eNodeB will select the highest-priority cell as the PCell for a CA UE. (For details about how
to set the switch and priorities, see the corresponding engineering guidelines.)
NOTE
In FDD+TDD CA, either an FDD or a TDD carrier can serve as the PCC for a CA UE. To prioritize
certain FDD or TDD frequencies as PCCs, set high PCell or PCC priorities for cells on the frequencies
or for the frequencies, respectively.
An eNodeB supports PCC anchoring for RRC_CONNECTED UEs if

EnhancedPccAnchorSwitch under the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter is on

eRAN
and the CaGroupCell.PreferredPCellPriority or PccFreqCfg.PreferredPccPriority

parameter has been set. The two parameters specify the PCell priority used in CA-group-
based configuration mode and the PCC priority used in adaptive configuration mode,
respectively.
If the target cell for initial access, an RRC connection reestablishment, or an incoming
handover does not have the highest PCell priority or the carrier of the cell does not have the
highest PCC priority, the eNodeB delivers the A1 measurement configuration to the CA UE.
The RSRP threshold for event A1 is specified by the
CaMgtCfg.EnhancedPccAnchorA1ThdRsrp parameter. (SCell configuration may occur
before the UE reports event A1.)
After receiving an A1 measurement report from the UE, the eNodeB checks the QoS class
identifiers (QCIs) of bearers and the evolved multimedia broadcast/multicast service
(eMBMS) status for the UE. The eNodeB starts the PCC anchoring procedure if no bearer for
an eMBMS service has been established for the UE and either of the following conditions has
been fulfilled:
l No bearer with a QCI of 1 has been established for the UE. QCI 1 indicates a voice over
LTE (VoLTE) service or an emergency call.
l A bearer with a QCI of 1 has been established for the UE, and the
VolteSupportCaInterFreqMeasSw option of the CaMgtCfg.CellCaAlgoSwitch
parameter has been selected.
NOTE
The eNodeB directly delivers the inter-frequency measurement configuration for PCC anchoring to the
CA UE without performing SCell configuration or instructing the UE to perform A1 measurements
when the following conditions are true:
l ENodeBAlgoSwitch.FastEnhancePccAnchorSwitch is set to ON.
l A PCell candidate is also a blind-configurable SCell candidate or all PCell candidates work on lower
frequencies than the current serving cell.
That is because, in this situation, there is a high probability of successful inter-frequency measurements
for PCC anchoring.
In the current serving cell of a CA UE, PCC anchoring is triggered by event A1 and event A1
is reported only once. For the definition of event A1, see 3.1.1 Related Concepts.
NOTE
l Frequencies in band 29 work only for the downlink and therefore cannot work as PCCs.
l PCC anchoring is not initiated for high-mobility UEs.
l It is recommended that PCC anchoring for RRC_CONNECTED UEs not be enabled for cells whose
Cell.HighSpeedFlag is set to HIGH_SPEED(High speed cell flag),
ULTRA_HIGH_SPEED(Ultra high speed cell flag), or EXTRA_HIGH_SPEED(Extra high
speed cell flag).
3.2.2.1 CA-Group-based PCC Anchoring

Figure 3-22 shows the CA-group-based PCC anchoring procedure.

eRAN
Figure 3-22 CA-group-based PCC anchoring
1. The eNodeB checks whether the current serving cell (for example, cell 1) has the highest
PCell priority (specified by the CaGroupCell.PreferredPCellPriority parameter) among
the cells in the CA group.
– If cell 1 has the highest PCell priority, the eNodeB retains cell 1 as the PCell for the
UE and does not perform further PCC anchoring.
– If cell 1 does not have the highest PCell priority, the eNodeB treats the cells that
have higher PCell priorities than cell 1 in the CA group as candidate PCells. The
eNodeB then arranges the candidates in descending order of PCell priority and goes
to the next step.
2. If the UE capability allows the carrier frequency of the top-priority candidate PCell (for
example, cell 2) to act as the PCC, the eNodeB delivers the A5 measurement

eRAN
configuration, instructing the UE to measure cell 2. The A5 measurement configuration

varies depending on the IntraRatHoComm.InterFreqHoA4TrigQuan parameter
setting. If multiple candidate PCells have the same PCell priority, the eNodeB instructs
the UE to measure all the carrier frequencies of these cells. The eNodeB then processes
only the first A5 measurement report from the UE and ignores subsequent reports. The
IntraRatHoComm.InterFreqHoA4TrigQuan parameter has the following values:
– RSRP: The A5 measurement configuration includes only an RSRP configuration.
The RSRP threshold for CA is specified by the CaGroupCell.PCellA4RsrpThd
parameter.
– RSRQ: The A5 measurement configuration includes only a reference signal
received quality (RSRQ) configuration. The RSRQ threshold for CA is specified by
the CaGroupCell.PCellA4RsrqThd parameter.
– BOTH: The A5 measurement configuration includes both RSRP and RSRQ
configurations. The UE sends an A5 measurement report to the eNodeB when either
the measured RSRP or RSRQ exceeds the specified threshold for CA.
If the UE is incapable of working at the carrier frequency of cell 2, the eNodeB skips to
the next-priority candidate PCell.
3. After receiving an A5 measurement report containing cell 2, the eNodeB hands the UE
over to cell 2.
If the eNodeB does not receive such a report or if the handover to cell 2 fails, the eNodeB
deletes the A5 measurement configuration and evaluates the next-priority candidate PCell in
the same way. If no candidate PCell can be selected as the PCell, the eNodeB terminates the
PCC anchoring procedure and cell 1 eventually serves the UE as its PCell.
NOTE
After the CA UE is handed over to a new PCell, CA does not work if CA configurations are absent or
incorrect in the target eNodeB or if a data link fails to be set up between the new PCell and SCells.
3.2.2.2 Adaptive PCC Anchoring

Unlike CA-group-based PCC anchoring, adaptive PCC anchoring involves candidate PCCs
for which only frequency-level information is configured. Therefore, the eNodeB can
determine the PCell only after receiving A5 measurement reports from the CA UE.
Figure 3-23 shows the adaptive PCC anchoring procedure.

eRAN
Figure 3-23 Adaptive PCC anchoring
1. The eNodeB checks whether the current serving carrier (for example, carrier 1) has the
highest PCC priority (specified by the PccFreqCfg.PreferredPccPriority parameter)
among the carriers identified by PccDlEarfcn in PccFreqCfg managed objects (MOs).
– If carrier 1 has the highest PCC priority, the eNodeB retains the cell on carrier 1 as
the PCell for the UE and does not perform further PCC anchoring.
– If carrier 1 does not have the highest PCC priority, the eNodeB treats higher-priority
carriers as candidate PCCs for the UE, arranges them in descending order of PCC
priority, and goes to the next step.
2. If the UE is capable of working at the top-priority candidate PCC (for example, carrier
2), the eNodeB delivers the A5 measurement configuration, instructing the UE to
measure carrier 2. The A5 measurement configuration varies depending on the

eRAN
IntraRatHoComm.InterFreqHoA4TrigQuan parameter setting. This parameter has the

following values:
– RSRP
The A5 measurement configuration includes only an RSRP configuration. The
RSRP threshold for CA is specified by the PccFreqCfg.PccA4RsrpThd parameter.
– RSRQ
The A5 measurement configuration includes only an RSRQ configuration. The
RSRQ threshold for CA is specified by the PccFreqCfg.PccA4RsrqThd parameter.
– BOTH
The A5 measurement configuration includes both RSRP and RSRQ configurations.
The UE sends an A5 measurement report to the eNodeB when either the measured
RSRP or RSRQ exceeds the specified threshold for CA.
If the UE is incapable of working at carrier 2, the eNodeB skips to the next-priority
candidate PCC.
3. After the eNodeB receives an A5 measurement report containing a cell on carrier 2, the
eNodeB hands the UE over to the cell.
If the eNodeB does not receive such a report or if the handover to the cell fails, the eNodeB
deletes the A5 measurement configuration and evaluates the next-priority candidate PCC in
the same way. If no cells on the candidate PCCs meet the conditions for triggering event A5
or no inter-frequency handover is successful, the eNodeB terminates the PCC anchoring
procedure and the cell on carrier 1 eventually serves the UE as its PCell.
NOTE
l If a candidate PCC is not accompanied by candidate SCCs, the eNodeB does not deliver A5
measurement configurations related to this candidate PCC.
l In an inter-eNodeB case, configuration checks on neighboring eNodeBs are not applicable. After the
CA UE is handed over to a new PCell, CA does not work if CA configurations are absent or
incorrect in the target eNodeB or if a data link fails to be set up between the new PCell and SCells.
3.2.3 PCC Anchoring for RRC_IDLE UEs

When IdleModePccAnchorSwitch under the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter
is on:
l If cell-reselection priorities specific to subscriber profile IDs (SPIDs) or operators are

configured on the eNodeB, the eNodeB includes the configured priorities in the
information element (IE) idleModeMobilityControlInfo of an RRC Connection Release
message.
l If SPID- or operator-specific cell-reselection priorities are not configured on the
eNodeB:
– If both PCell/PCC priorities and common cell-reselection priorities are specified,
the eNodeB performs PCC anchoring when the RRC connections of CA UEs are
normally released. This does not occur at abnormal RRC connection releases, for
example, due to S1 faults, an eNodeB overload, or an MME overload. During PCC
anchoring:
i. The eNodeB generates a PCC anchor frequency list for an RRC connection
release, based on the band combinations supported by the CA UE and
PCell/PCC priorities. In the list, the frequencies that can be aggregated are
arranged in descending order of PCell/PCC priority.

eRAN
ii. The eNodeB includes the list in the IE idleModeMobilityControlInfo of an

RRC Connection Release message and, in that message, sets the length of
timer T320 to a fixed value of 180 minutes.
iii. The eNodeB sends the message to the CA UE, instructing the UE to camp in
the specified frequency band.
In case certain frequencies with common cell-reselection priorities are not assigned
PCell/PCC priorities by operators, these frequencies are appended to those with
PCell/PCC priorities and arranged in descending order of common cell-reselection
priority.
– If only PCell/PCC priorities or common cell-reselection priorities are specified, the
eNodeB performs the preceding PCC anchoring procedure with the PCC anchor
frequency list including only the candidate frequencies assigned the priorities and
supported by the UE.
– If neither PCell/PCC priorities nor common cell-reselection priorities are specified,
or if the UE does not support any candidate frequencies, the eNodeB does not
perform the preceding PCC anchoring procedure.
3.2.4 Duplex-Mode-Priority-based PCC Anchoring

To prioritize FDD or TDD frequencies as PCCs for FDD+TDD CA, an operator can set high
priorities for FDD or TDD so that the eNodeB will select cells in the high-priority duplex
mode as PCells for CA UEs. The overall procedure for duplex-mode-priority-based PCC
anchoring is as follows:
1. The eNodeB learns the UE capability.
– If the UE capability allows aggregation of three or more FDD and TDD CCs, the
eNodeB preferentially evaluates cells or carriers in the duplex mode (FDD or TDD)
specified by the CaMgtCfg.FTCAMultiCCAnchorPolicy parameter.
– If the UE capability allows aggregation of only two FDD and TDD CCs, the
eNodeB preferentially evaluates cells or carriers in the duplex mode specified by
the CaMgtCfg.FTCA2CCAnchorPolicy parameter.
2. If no cell in high-priority duplex mode is selected as the PCell, the eNodeB continues to
evaluate cells in the other duplex mode. That is, if no FDD cell is selected as the PCell,
the eNodeB continues to evaluate TDD cells. If no TDD cell is selected as the PCell, the
eNodeB continues to evaluate FDD cells. For the detailed PCC anchoring procedures,
see 3.2.2 PCC Anchoring for RRC_CONNECTED UEs and 3.2.3 PCC Anchoring
for RRC_IDLE UEs.
3.2.5 SCell Configuration

To prioritize certain frequencies as SCCs, an operator can set high SCell or SCC priorities so
that the eNodeB will select the highest-priority cell as an SCell for a CA UE. (For details
about how to set the priorities, see the corresponding engineering guidelines.)
NOTE
If FDD+TDD CA is enabled, the eNodeB may select a TDD cell as an SCell for a CA UE that is served
by an FDD PCell. During the selection, the eNodeB considers TDD cells with uplink-downlink
configuration 1 or 2 and special subframe configuration 4, 5, 6, 7, or 9 as candidates. From the
candidates, the eNodeB selects an SCell based on carrier management principles. Regardless of whether
an FDD or TDD SCell is to be added to accompany the FDD PCell, the eNodeB follows the SCell
configuration procedures described in this document.
An eNodeB starts SCell configuration for a CA UE if all the following conditions are met:

eRAN
l The RRC connection of the UE has been set up in any of the following scenarios:
– Initial access (when PCC anchoring has finished)
– RRC connection reestablishment
– Incoming handover
l Signaling radio bearer 2 (SRB2) and the default data radio bearer (DRB) have been set
up.
l The number of SCells for the UE has not reached the maximum allowed value.
l The UE is not running an emergency call.
The triggering of the SCell configuration procedure is also dependent on AMBR-based
control over the number of UEs configured with SCells. (AMBR is short for downlink
aggregate maximum bit rate.) Figure 3-24 shows the AMBR-based control procedure.
After a UE accesses a cell (at initial access, a handover, or an RRC connection
reestablishment) and reports its CA capability to the eNodeB, the eNodeB checks whether the
number of UEs that treat the cell as their PCell has reached the value of
CaMgtCfg.CellMaxPccNumber. If the number has reached the parameter value, the eNodeB
prohibits SCell configuration for this UE. If the number has not reached the parameter value,
the eNodeB then checks whether the AMBR of the UE has exceeded the threshold specified
by CaMgtCfg.CaAmbrThd. The eNodeB allows SCell configuration for this UE only if the
AMBR exceeds the threshold.
In particular, if a CA UE reverts to the single carrier state after the number of UEs that treat
the cell as their PCell reaches the configured value, the eNodeB does not immediately allow
SCell configuration for other UEs. The eNodeB allows SCell configuration for other UEs
only when the number of UEs that treat the cell as their PCell falls below 90% of the
configured value.

eRAN
Figure 3-24 Procedure for AMBR-based control over the number of UEs configured with
SCells
NOTE
l When comparing the number of UEs with the value of CaMgtCfg.CellMaxPccNumber, the
eNodeB does not consider the number of UEs that treat the cell as their SCell.
l If the AMBR of a UE configured with an SCell is decreased to less than the previous AMBR
threshold, the eNodeB does not remove the SCell unless the conditions described in 3.2.11 SCell
Removal are met.
l When the value of CaMgtCfg.CellMaxPccNumber is decreased to less than the number of UEs that
are configured with SCells and treat the cell as their PCell, the eNodeB does not remove the SCells
for the UEs.
l For a UE that supports FDD+TDD CA and is currently served by a cell in a duplex mode, cells in
the other duplex mode can be configured as SCells if the UE allows the current serving cell to act as
the PCell, as indicated by tdd-FDD-CA-PCellDuplex-r12 in the PhyLayerParameters-v12xy IE in
the UE capability message. If the UE does not allow the current serving cell to act as the PCell,
operators can enable cells in the other duplex mode to act as SCells by setting a specific protocol
compatibility switch. For details about the switch, see 13.4.2 Precautions.
l When the PCells of two CA UEs work on the same frequency and with the same SCell, a cell radio
network temporary identifier (C-RNTI) collision may occur. To prevent abnormal CA services, the
eNodeB automatically changes the C-RNTI for one of the UEs.

eRAN
3.2.5.1 CA-Group-based SCell Configuration

CA-group-based SCell configuration can be used for uplink 2CC aggregation and downlink
2CC, 3CC, 4CC, and 5CC aggregation.
Uplink 2CC aggregation and downlink 2CC aggregation use the same SCell configuration
procedure. With both uplink and downlink 2CC aggregation enabled, in a single procedure, an
eNodeB configures an SCell for a CA UE for both uplink and downlink transmission. This
SCell is the first configured one among SCells in case the number of CCs in the downlink is
greater than that in the uplink.
Figure 3-25 uses uplink/downlink 2CC aggregation as an example to describe an SCell
configuration procedure. For downlink nCC (n = 3, 4, or 5) aggregation, there are (n–1)
candidate SCells in a selection.
For aggregation of any number of CCs, if the number of successfully configured SCells is less
than the required number after all candidates have been tried, the SCell configuration
procedure ends. After that, the eNodeB periodically evaluates whether the downlink or uplink
traffic volume of the UE meets the SCell activation conditions, which are described in 3.2.9
SCell Activation. If the SCell activation conditions are met, the eNodeB performs an SCell
configuration procedure again, attempting to configure SCells. This periodic configuration
process continues until the number of successfully configured SCells reaches the required
number. The period is specified by the CaMgtCfg.SccCfgInterval parameter.
NOTE
If the CaGroupScellCfg.SpidGrpId parameter is set to a value other than 65535 for a candidate SCell,
this cell cannot be configured as an SCell for UEs in this subscriber profile ID (SPID) group.

eRAN
Figure 3-25 CA-group-based SCell configuration for uplink/downlink 2CC aggregation

eRAN
The eNodeB treats any cell that meets all the following conditions as a candidate SCell for a
CA UE:
l The cell is in the same CA group as the PCell of the UE.

l The cell has not been configured as an SCell for the UE.
l The cell belongs to the public land mobile network (PLMN) serving the UE, or it
belongs to an equivalent PLMN.
The eNodeB arranges all candidate SCells in descending order of SCell priority (specified by
the CaGroupSCellCfg.SCellPriority parameter) and attempts to select a candidate SCell as
an SCell for the UE. Cells with the priority value of 0 cannot be configured as SCells.
The SCell configuration procedure varies depending on the parameter settings related to blind
SCell configuration.
l If SccBlindCfgSwitch under the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter is on

and the CaGroupSCellCfg.SCellBlindCfgFlag parameter is set to TRUE for a top-
priority candidate SCell, the eNodeB does not send the A4 measurement configuration
among which the threshold for event A4 is the sum of CaMgtCfg.CarrAggrA4ThdRsrp
and CaGroupSCellCfg.SCellA4Offset configured on the PCell side. Instead, the
eNodeB directly delivers an RRC Connection Reconfiguration message to configure this
candidate cell as an SCell for the UE.
If multiple candidate SCells have the same top SCell priority and have their
CaGroupSCellCfg.SCellBlindCfgFlag set to TRUE, the eNodeB randomly selects one
cell from these candidate SCells and attempts to configure this cell as an SCell for the
UE in a blind manner (that is, without measurements).
If the SCell is configured successfully, the procedure ends. If the SCell fails to be
configured, the eNodeB evaluates next-priority candidate SCells in the same way.
It is recommended that blind SCell configuration be enabled to have SCells quickly
configured.
l If SccBlindCfgSwitch under the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter is off or
if SccBlindCfgSwitch is on but the CaGroupSCellCfg.SCellBlindCfgFlag parameter is
set to FALSE for a top-priority candidate SCell, the eNodeB does not support blind
SCell configuration. In this situation, the eNodeB delivers the A4 measurement
configuration related to the candidate SCell. After receiving an A4 measurement report
from the UE, the eNodeB determines whether to configure the candidate cell as an SCell
for the UE. The configuration procedure is as follows:
The eNodeB delivers the A4 measurement configuration, instructing the UE to measure
all top-priority candidate SCells. In the measurement configuration, the eNodeB may set
up measurement gaps for the UE, depending on the inter-frequency measurement
capabilities reported by the UE.
– If the UE requires measurement gaps, the eNodeB considers the bearers of the UE.
n The SCell configuration procedure ends if a bearer with QCI 1 has been
established for the UE and VolteSupportCaInterFreqMeasSw under the
CaMgtCfg.CellCaAlgoSwitch parameter is off, or if a bearer with QCI 65, 66,
or an enhanced extended QCI has been established for the UE.
n The eNodeB sets up measurement gaps in the measurement configuration if no
bearer with QCI 1, 65, 66, or an enhanced extended QCI has been established
for the UE, or if a bearer with QCI 1 has been established for the UE and
VolteSupportCaInterFreqMeasSw under the CaMgtCfg.CellCaAlgoSwitch
parameter is on.

eRAN
NOTE
The measurement configuration includes the E-UTRA absolute radio frequency

channel number (EARFCN), frequency-specific offset, measurement bandwidth, and
other measurement-related parameters. For details about these parameters, see the
descriptions of inter-frequency measurements in Intra-RAT Mobility Management in
Connected Mode Feature Parameter Description.
– If the UE does not require measurement gaps, the eNodeB does not set up
measurement gaps in the measurement configuration.
AutoGapSwitch under the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.HoModeSwitch parameter affects the
decision process of the inter-frequency measurement gap setup. If this switch is on, the
eNodeB determines whether to set up the gaps based on the reported UE capabilities. If
this switch is off, the eNodeB sets up the gaps, without considering UE capabilities. It is
recommended that this switch be off to ensure that only cells with satisfactory signal
quality can be configured as SCells.
After receiving an A4 measurement report from the UE, the eNodeB checks the cells
contained in the report. If the report contains a candidate SCell, the eNodeB sends an
RRC Connection Reconfiguration message to configure the cell as an SCell for the UE.
If the SCell is configured successfully, the procedure ends. If the eNodeB does not
receive a report that contains a candidate SCell or the SCell fails to be configured, the
eNodeB continues to evaluate next-priority candidate SCells.
NOTE
After delivering the A4 measurement configuration related to a candidate SCell to the UE, the
eNodeB may receive an A2 measurement report, indicating unsatisfactory signal quality of the
PCell, for an inter-frequency or inter-RAT handover. In such a case, the eNodeB will not configure
the candidate cell as an SCell for the UE, even if the eNodeB later receives an A4 measurement
report that contains the candidate cell.
3.2.5.2 Adaptive SCell Configuration

An eNodeB can configure an SCell in adaptive mode when both FreqCfgSwitch and
AdpCaSwitch under the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter are on, candidate
PCells and their candidate SCells are configured, and the
CaGroupSCellCfg.SCellBlindCfgFlag parameter is set to TRUE.
In adaptive mode, the eNodeB attempts to configure SCells in a blind manner for a UE only
when the UE accesses a cell at initial access, a handover, or an RRC connection
reestablishment.
Adaptive SCell configuration can be used for uplink 2CC aggregation and downlink 2CC,
3CC, 4CC, and 5CC aggregation.
Uplink 2CC aggregation and downlink 2CC aggregation use the same SCell configuration
procedure. With both uplink and downlink 2CC aggregation enabled, in a single procedure, an
eNodeB configures an SCell for a CA UE for both uplink and downlink transmission. This
SCell is the first configured one among SCells in case the number of CCs in the downlink is
greater than that in the uplink.
Figure 3-26 uses uplink/downlink 2CC aggregation as an example to describe an SCell
configuration procedure. For downlink nCC (n = 3, 4, or 5) aggregation, there are (n–1)
candidate SCells in a selection.
For aggregation of any number of CCs, if the number of successfully configured SCells is less
than the required number after all candidates have been tried, the SCell configuration
procedure ends. After that, the eNodeB periodically evaluates whether the downlink or uplink

eRAN
traffic volume of the UE meets the SCell activation conditions, which are described in 3.2.9
SCell Activation. If the SCell activation conditions are met, the eNodeB performs an SCell
configuration procedure again, attempting to configure SCells. This periodic configuration
process continues until the number of successfully configured SCells reaches the required
number. The period is specified by the CaMgtCfg.SccCfgInterval parameter.
NOTE
l A maximum of 576 CaGroupSCellCfg MOs can be configured for a single eNodeB.

l Routes can be set up between a cell and a maximum of 24 or 8 other cells (configured in
CaGroupSCellCfg MOs) for CA, depending on the setting of the Dl2CCAckResShareSw option
of the CellAlgoSwitch.PucchAlgoSwitch parameter. The number is 24 when this option is selected,
and is 8 when this option is deselected. Any more CaGroupSCellCfg MOs will not take effect. No
new routes will be set up after A4 or A6 measurements. Therefore, no more SCells can be
configured or changed to accompany a PCell. The 24 or 8 cells are not necessarily active SCells.
They may be SCells configured but not activated, cells to which routes are not set up, or invalid
cells.
l If the SccFreqCfg.SpidGrpId parameter is set to a value other than 65535 for a candidate SCC, this
carrier cannot be configured as an SCC for UEs in this SPID group.

eRAN
Figure 3-26 Adaptive SCell configuration for uplink/downlink 2CC aggregation
Among the carriers defined in SccFreqCfg MOs, the eNodeB treats those that have not been
configured as SCCs for the CA UE as candidate SCCs. The eNodeB then arranges all
candidate SCCs in descending order of SCC priority (specified by the
SccFreqCfg.SccPriority parameter) and attempts to select a cell on a candidate SCC as an
SCell for the UE. The configuration procedure is as follows:

eRAN
1. The eNodeB checks whether a blind-configurable candidate cell (with

CaGroupSCellCfg.SCellBlindCfgFlag set to TRUE) on the top-priority candidate SCC
has been specified for the PCell of the UE.
– If such a cell has been specified, the eNodeB delivers an RRC Connection
Reconfiguration message to configure this cell as an SCell for the UE, without
delivering measurement configurations.
NOTE
l On each candidate SCC, only one cell can be configured as a blind-configurable

candidate SCell. If there are multiple blind-configurable candidate SCells on a candidate
SCC, only one of them takes effect. It is uncertain which one will take effect. This shift
will affect the CA UE distribution after eNodeB restart or cell deactivation.
l If there are multiple blind-configurable candidate SCells on different candidate SCCs,
the eNodeB randomly selects one to configure as an SCell.
– If no such cell has been specified or the blind configuration fails, the eNodeB
delivers the A4 measurement configuration, as described in the next step. Among
the measurement configuration, the threshold for event A4 is equal to
CaMgtCfg.CarrAggrA4ThdRsrp plus SccFreqCfg.SccA4Offset configured on the
PCC side. If multiple candidate SCCs have the same priority, the eNodeB will
perform the subsequent steps on all candidates.
2. The eNodeB delivers the A4 measurement configuration, instructing the UE to measure
the candidate SCC. In addition, the eNodeB may set up measurement gaps for the UE,
depending on the inter-frequency measurement capabilities reported by the UE.
– If the UE requires measurement gaps, the eNodeB considers the bearers of the UE.
n The SCell configuration procedure ends if a bearer with QCI 1 has been
established for the UE and VolteSupportCaInterFreqMeasSw under the
CaMgtCfg.CellCaAlgoSwitch parameter is off, or if a bearer with QCI 65, 66,
or an enhanced extended QCI has been established for the UE.
n The eNodeB sets up measurement gaps in the measurement configuration if no
bearer with QCI 1, 65, 66, or an enhanced extended QCI has been established
for the UE, or if a bearer with QCI 1 has been established for the UE and
VolteSupportCaInterFreqMeasSw under the CaMgtCfg.CellCaAlgoSwitch
parameter is on.
NOTE
l The measurement configuration includes the EARFCN, frequency-specific offset,

measurement bandwidth, and other measurement-related parameters. For details
about these parameters, see the descriptions of inter-frequency measurements in
Intra-RAT Mobility Management in Connected Mode Feature Parameter
Description.
l When no neighboring cell has been configured on the candidate SCC, the eNodeB
sets up measurement gaps in the measurement configuration only if
CaBasedEventAnrSwitch under the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.AnrSwitch parameter
is on.

eRAN
NOTE
During initial adaptive configuration of an inter-eNodeB SCell at an eNodeB in a relaxed

backhaul scenario, the control-plane link and user-plane path are set up and checked for the
eX2 interface between the eNodeBs and information is exchanged between the PCell and the
candidate SCell. This takes a longer time than intra-eNodeB CA. In addition, the SCell
cannot be configured within a single round of gap-assisted measurements.
Therefore, the eNodeB instructs this UE to perform two rounds of gap-assisted
measurements: one for eX2 setup and check as well as information exchange and the other
for SCell configuration. The interval between the two rounds is determined by the
CaMgtCfg.SccCfgInterval parameter. After the eX2 interface is set up, the eNodeB sets a
default delay, which is less than 4 ms. It takes 8s to finish the measurement of the actual
delay. If the actual delay is longer than the default delay, there is no traffic of the UE in the
SCell during delay measurement. The SCell traffic of the UE will become normal after the
delay measurement.
After the eX2 interface is set up, the eNodeB instructs subsequent CA UEs to perform only
one round of gap-assisted measurements.
– If the UE does not require measurement gaps, the eNodeB does not set up
measurement gaps in the measurement configuration.
AutoGapSwitch under the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.HoModeSwitch parameter affects the
decision process of the inter-frequency measurement gap setup. If this switch is on, the
eNodeB determines whether to set up the gaps based on the reported UE capabilities. If
this switch is off, the eNodeB sets up the gaps, without considering UE capabilities. It is
recommended that this switch be off to ensure that only cells with satisfactory signal
quality can be configured as SCells.
3. After receiving an A4 measurement report that contains cells on the candidate SCC, the
eNodeB selects the reported cells that belong to the serving PLMN of the UE or an
equivalent PLMN as candidate SCells. The eNodeB then arranges the candidate SCells
in descending order of RSRP and proceeds as follows:
– If the PCell can set up a data link to the top-priority candidate SCell, the eNodeB
sends an RRC Connection Reconfiguration message to configure the candidate cell
as an SCell for the UE. If the SCell is configured successfully, the procedure ends.
If the SCell fails to be configured, the eNodeB tries the next-priority candidate
SCell.
– If the PCell cannot set up a data link to the top-priority candidate SCell, the eNodeB
tries the next-priority candidate SCell.
– If none of the candidate SCells can be configured as an SCell for the UE, the
eNodeB evaluates the next-priority candidate SCC.
NOTE
After delivering the A4 measurement configuration related to a candidate SCC to the UE, the
eNodeB may receive an A2 measurement report, indicating unsatisfactory signal quality of the
PCell, for an inter-frequency or inter-RAT handover. In such a case, the eNodeB will not configure
a candidate cell as an SCell for the UE, even if the eNodeB later receives an A4 measurement
report that contains the candidate cell.
If the UE reports event A2 during PCC anchoring, the PCC anchoring procedure will also be
stopped.
3.2.6 Load-based PCC Anchoring and SCell Configuration

NOTE
This function results in prolonged time of inter-frequency measurements during PCell and SCell
selection. Therefore, performance statistics indicate a decrease in the number of UEs that are using CA.

eRAN
3.2.6.1 Load-based PCC Anchoring

Load-based PCC anchoring is an enhancement to PCC anchoring for RRC_CONNECTED
UEs. It requires PCC anchoring for RRC_CONNECTED UEs to be activated (as currently
recommended, by selecting the EnhancedPccAnchorSwitch option of the
ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter.) Load-based PCC anchoring is activated if the
PccSmartCfgSwitch option of the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter is selected.
In inter-eNodeB CA cases, the PccSmartCfgSwitch option must be selected for all eNodeBs
involved. After this function is enabled, inter- or intra-eNodeB cells with routes set up
between them exchange their load status. If no route is set up, the eNodeB considers the
candidate cells to be in the high load state.
CA UEs in a cell contribute most to the load of the uplink and downlink traffic channels and
control channels in the cell. If the number of CA UEs that have accessed a cell as their PCell
is greater than the maximum allowed number (specified by CaMgtCfg.CellMaxPccNumber)
multiplied by CaMgtCfg.PccUserNumberOffloadThd, the PCell is in the high load state.
NOTE
When the CPU usage of a BBP reaches the threshold for flow control, the eNodeB performs flow
control, the first step of which is to prohibit new CA UEs from accessing cells on the BBP as their
PCells.
Load-based PCC anchoring works in the following scenarios:

l A candidate PCC has a higher PCC priority than the carrier that the CA UE is camping
on, or multiple candidate PCCs have an identical PCC priority that is higher than the
priority of the current serving carrier. In this scenario, the eNodeB delivers the A5
measurement configuration to the UE, instructing the UE to measure the top-priority
candidate PCCs (at most three candidates in a single configuration). After receiving a
measurement report from the UE, the eNodeB checks whether there are low-load cells on
the candidate PCCs. A cell not in the high load state is considered to be in the low load
state.
– If there is a low-load cell among cells on the candidate PCCs, the eNodeB hands
over the UE to this inter-frequency cell. If there are multiple low-load cells, the
eNodeB randomly selects one and hands over the UE to it.
– If there is no low-load cell on the top-priority candidate PCCs, the eNodeB delivers
another A5 measurement configuration to the UE, instructing the UE to measure the
next-priority candidate PCCs. The eNodeB repeats the preceding actions until it has
tried all candidate PCCs with higher priorities than or the same priority as the
current serving carrier.
l The carrier that the CA UE is camping on has the highest PCC priority, and the current
serving cell of the UE is in the high load state. In this scenario, the eNodeB checks
whether there are candidate PCCs that have the same PCC priority as the current carrier.
– If there are such candidate PCCs, the eNodeB delivers the A5 measurement
configuration, instructing the UE to measure them (at most three candidates in a
single configuration). After receiving a measurement report from the UE, the
eNodeB checks whether there are low-load cells on the candidate PCCs. If there is a
low-load cell, the eNodeB hands over the UE to this inter-frequency cell.
– If there are no such candidate PCCs, the PCC anchoring procedure ends.

eRAN
NOTE
l During CA-group-based PCC anchoring, the eNodeB can acquire the load status of candidate PCells
in advance and therefore instructs the UE to measure only the low-load candidate PCells. If all
candidate PCells are in the high load state, the eNodeB does not perform load-based PCC anchoring
for the UE. During adaptive PCC anchoring, the eNodeB cannot acquire the load status of candidate
PCells in advance.
l When the load status of a candidate PCell changes, it takes several seconds for the new load status to
be exchanged between BBPs or eNodeBs in the case of inter-BBP or inter-eNodeB CA. If multiple
UEs access the candidate PCell within a short time, the eNodeB may make an incorrect decision on
the load status before the status exchange is complete.
3.2.6.2 Load-based SCell Configuration

During CA-group-based or adaptive SCell configuration, eNodeBs may consider the load
status of cells when evaluating candidates. Load-based SCell configuration takes effect when
SccSmartCfgSwitch under the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter is on. After
this function is enabled, inter- or intra-eNodeB cells with routes set up between them
exchange their load status. If no route is set up, the eNodeB considers the candidate cells to be
in the high load state.
When the number of operating frequencies on a network is greater than the number of
frequencies to be aggregated and at least two of those frequencies have the same SCC priority,
the eNodeB checks the load status of candidate cells and selects low-load cells as SCells. If all
candidate cells have the same load status (either low or high), the eNodeB selects cells with
high RSRP as SCells.
The definitions of cell load status vary depending on the setting of
CellMLB.MlbTriggerMode.
l When this parameter is set to PRB_ONLY:
– A cell enters the high load state if it meets the following condition continuously for
5s: PRB usage ≥ CellMLB.InterFreqMLBThd +
CellMLB.InterFreqOffloadOffset.
– The cell exits the high load state if it meets the following condition continuously for
5s: PRB usage < CellMLB.InterFreqMLBThd +
CellMLB.InterFreqOffloadOffset – CellMLB.LoadOffset.
The cell is in the low load state before it enters the high load state or after it exits the
high load state.
l When this parameter is set to UE_NUMBER_ONLY:
– A cell enters the high load state if it meets the following condition continuously for
5s: Number of uplink-synchronized UEs in the cell ≥
CellMLB.InterFreqMlbUeNumThd + CellMLB.InterFrqUeNumOffloadOffset.
– The cell exits the high load state if it meets the following condition continuously for
5s: Number of uplink-synchronized UEs in the cell <
CellMLB.InterFreqMlbUeNumThd + CellMLB.InterFrqUeNumOffloadOffset
– CellMLB.MlbUeNumOffset.
The cell is in the low load state before it enters the high load state or after it exits the
high load state.
l When this parameter is set to PRB_OR_UE_NUMBER:
A cell enters the high load state if it meets either of the preceding conditions for entering
the high load state. The cell is in the low load state if it is considered to be in the low
load state based on both the PRB usage and the number of uplink-synchronized UEs.

eRAN
If blind-configurable candidate SCells have been set for the PCell of a CA UE, the eNodeB
preferentially configures SCells in a blind manner. During blind SCell configuration, if the
number of such candidates is greater than the number (for example, n) of SCells to be
configured, the eNodeB checks the load of each candidate and delivers an RRC Connection
Reconfiguration message to the n cells with the lightest load.
If blind-configurable candidate SCells have not been set for the PCell of the CA UE, the
eNodeB checks the load of each candidate SCell after collecting the measurement reports
about all candidates. (If the eNodeB does not receive measurement reports about any cell on a
frequency within 3s, it considers that the UE is not in the coverage area of the frequency and
instructs the UE to stop the measurements.) Based on the load status, the eNodeB delivers an
RRC Connection Reconfiguration message to configure SCells for the UE. This
measurement-based SCell configuration procedure has a longer delay than the blind SCell
configuration procedure. To shorten the delay, it is recommended that candidate SCells be
blind-configurable.
NOTE
eNodeBs do not consider the load status of cells during A6-based SCell changes.
3.2.7 SCell Change

In adaptive configuration mode, if a CA UE whose SCell has been configured receives better
quality signals from an intra-frequency neighboring cell of the SCell than from the SCell, the
serving eNodeB of the PCell can change the SCell while keeping the PCell unchanged, as
shown in Figure 3-27. It is recommended that the SCell change function be always activated.
SCell changes do not occur in CA-group-based configuration mode.
Figure 3-27 SCell change
If SccModA6Switch under the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter is on, the

eNodeB sends an RRC Connection Reconfiguration message to a CA UE after configuring
SCells for the UE. The message contains the A6 measurement configuration for each SCC of
the UE. The offset for event A6 is equal to the CaMgtCfg.CarrAggrA6Offset parameter
value specified for the PCell.
After receiving an A6 measurement report related to an SCell (for example, cell 1) from the
UE, the eNodeB arranges the reported candidate SCells in descending order of RSRP and
proceeds as follows:
l If the PCell can set up a data link to the top-priority candidate SCell (for example, cell
2), the eNodeB sends an RRC Connection Reconfiguration message to change the SCell
from cell 1 to cell 2 for the UE.

eRAN
l If the PCell cannot set up a data link to cell 2, the eNodeB tries the next-priority
candidate SCell.
If the PCell cannot set up a data link to any candidate SCell, the eNodeB does not change the
SCell for the UE.
3.2.8 Enhanced SCell Selection

At initial access, an incoming handover, or RRC connection reestablishment of a CA UE, the
target eNodeB checks whether the current serving cell combination is the most appropriate for
the UE. If it is not, the eNodeB sends the A1 measurement configuration related to the PCell
to the UE. After receiving an A1 measurement report from the UE, the eNodeB initiates a CA
procedure, selecting a better serving cell combination for the UE.
This function aims to select a better SCell for a CA UE that is moving from the cell edge
towards the cell center in multi-band same-coverage scenarios. A handover may also occur in
order to change the PCell if a better serving cell combination is available.
Enhanced SCell selection is enabled when both of the following conditions are met:
l The CaSmartSelectionSwitch option of the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch
parameter and the MultiCarrierFlexCaSwitch option of the
CaMgtCfg.CellCaAlgoSwitch parameter are selected.
l The CaMgtCfg.EnhancedSccSelA1ThldRsrp parameter, which specifies the threshold
for event A1, is set to a value other than –40 dBm.
The enhanced SCell selection procedure is triggered by event A1 only once for a CA UE in its
PCell. The UE sends only one report of this event to the eNodeB.

eRAN
Figure 3-28 Enhanced SCell selection

eRAN
1. After receiving the A1 report from the UE, the eNodeB searches for serving cell
combinations that are better than the current combination. The eNodeB then sends the
UE the measurement configurations that include the operating frequencies of the better
combinations. The method of finding better combinations is the same as intelligent
selection of serving cell combinations described in 3.1.3.3 LAOFD-070201 Flexible CA
from Multiple Carriers.
2. The eNodeB starts a 3-second timer. If the UE sends an A4 report before the timer
expires and the report contains all the cells in the optimal combination, the eNodeB stops
the timer and inter-frequency measurements. If the eNodeB has not received such a
report when the timer expires, it stops the inter-frequency measurements.
3. The eNodeB selects the PCell and SCells in the best combination among the reported
ones as target PCell and SCells. If the target PCell is different from the current PCell, the
eNodeB performs a handover to change the PCell. If the target PCell is the same as the
current PCell but a target SCell is different from the current SCells, the eNodeB changes
the SCell. If the target PCell and SCells are the same as the current ones, the eNodeB
retains them.
NOTE
If PCC anchoring for RRC_CONNECTED UEs (controlled by the EnhancedPccAnchorSwitch option

of the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter) and enhanced SCell selection are both enabled,
the eNodeB sends the UE the A1 measurement configurations related to enhanced SCell selection first.
The eNodeB delivers the A1 measurement configurations related to the PCC anchoring function only
after enhanced SCell selection is finished. It is recommended that, when both functions are enabled, the
A1 threshold for enhanced SCell selection be lower than the A1 threshold for the PCC anchoring
function.
3.2.9 SCell Activation

When the traffic volume of a CA UE meets certain conditions, the eNodeB activates the
configured SCells for the UE, as shown in Figure 3-29.
Figure 3-29 SCell activation
When the downlink traffic volume meets both of the following conditions, the eNodeB sends
a MAC control element (CE) to activate all the configured SCells:
l Data volume buffered at the RLC layer > max (Uu data rate at the RLC layer x
CaMgtCfg.ActiveBufferDelayThd, CaMgtCfg.ActiveBufferLenThd)
l Delay of the first RLC protocol data unit (PDU) > CaMgtCfg.ActiveBufferDelayThd
When a CA UE is configured with two uplink CCs, the eNodeB evaluates uplink traffic
volume as follows, in addition to downlink traffic volume:

eRAN
If TTI bundling does not take effect on the CA UE and the reported uplink buffer status is
greater than the CaMgtCfg.ActiveBufferLenThd parameter value throughout the period
specified by CaMgtCfg.UlCaActiveTimeToTrigger, the uplink SCell can be activated.
Section 6.1.3.8 "Activation/Deactivation MAC Control Element" in 3GPP TS 36.321 V11.1.0
provides details about the MAC CE. An eNodeB activates an SCell as long as either uplink or
downlink traffic volume meets the activation conditions. If uplink (instead of downlink)
traffic volume meets the activation conditions, the eNodeB activates only the SCell that has
been configured for the uplink. SCells configured only for the downlink will not be activated
in this situation.
NOTE
If CaInstantlyJudgeSwitch under the CaMgtCfg.CellCaAlgoSwitch parameter is on, the eNodeB uses

instantaneous millisecond-level values to evaluate traffic volume conditions for SCell activation. If this
switch is off, the eNodeB uses filtered second-level values to evaluate the traffic volume conditions for
SCell activation.
To ensure synchronization between the UE and the eNodeB, SCells are activated on the UE
and eNodeB simultaneously in the x-th subframe after the eNodeB sends a MAC CE for SCell
activation to the UE. The value of x is stipulated in physical layer protocols. For FDD
eNodeBs, the value is 8, as shown in Figure 3-30. The eNodeB sends a MAC CE in subframe
n, and the SCell is activated on the UE and eNodeB in subframe (n+x).
Figure 3-30 Subframe relationship for traffic volume–triggered SCell activation
3.2.10 SCell Deactivation

SCell deactivation, illustrated in Figure 3-31, can be based on traffic volume, channel quality,
or residual block errors. SCell deactivation based on residual block errors takes effect without
switch control. The other two types take effect when the CaMgtCfg.CarrierMgtSwitch
parameter is set to ON for the eNodeB that serves the PCell of the CA UE.
It is the serving eNodeB of the PCell that deactivates SCells. The
CaMgtCfg.CarrierMgtSwitch parameter needs to be set only for this eNodeB.

eRAN
Figure 3-31 SCell deactivation
Traffic Volume–triggered SCell Deactivation

If the CaMgtCfg.CarrierMgtSwitch parameter is set to ON(On) for the PCell of a CA UE
and:
l If the UE is working with SCells activated in the downlink,

The eNodeB delivers a MAC CE to deactivate all these SCells when each E-UTRAN
radio access bearer (E-RAB) of the UE meets both of the following downlink traffic
volume conditions:
– Uu data rate at the RLC layer ≤ CaMgtCfg.DeactiveThroughputThd
– Data volume buffered at the RLC layer ≤ CaMgtCfg.DeactiveBufferLenThd
l If the UE is working with an SCell activated in the uplink,
The eNodeB delivers a MAC CE to deactivate the SCell only when both the uplink and
downlink traffic volumes meet their respective conditions.
The following are the uplink traffic volume conditions, which must be both fulfilled:
– Data size indicated in the buffer status report (BSR) submitted by the CA UE ≤
CaMgtCfg.DeactiveBufferLenThd
– Uplink RLC rate of the UE ≤ CaMgtCfg.DeactiveThroughputThd
When only the downlink traffic volume meets the deactivation conditions, the eNodeB
sends a MAC CE to deactivate all downlink-only SCells for the UE.
Channel Quality–triggered SCell Deactivation

If CaMgtCfg.CarrierMgtSwitch is set to ON(On) for the PCell:
l In non-relaxed backhaul scenarios, the eNodeB sends a MAC CE to deactivate an SCell

for a CA UE when the spectral efficiency corresponding to the SCell's channel quality
indicator (CQI) reported by the UE falls below the spectral efficiency corresponding to
the CaMgtCfg.SccDeactCqiThd parameter value specified for the SCell in single-
codeword transmission. If CaMgtCfg.SccDeactCqiThd is set to 0 for the SCell, the
eNodeB that serves the PCell does not deactivate the SCell based on channel quality.
l In relaxed backhaul scenarios, the eNodeB sends a MAC CE to deactivate an SCell for a
CA UE when the spectral efficiency corresponding to the SCell's CQI reported by the
UE falls below the spectral efficiency corresponding to the
CaMgtCfg.RelaxedBHSccDeactCqiThd parameter value specified for the SCell in
single-codeword transmission. If CaMgtCfg.RelaxedBHSccDeactCqiThd is set to 0 for
the SCell, the eNodeB that serves the PCell does not deactivate the SCell based on
channel quality.

eRAN
It is recommended that the channel quality-triggered SCell deactivation function be activated

especially when blind SCell configuration is enabled or when A2 measurements are disabled.
This prevents scheduling on SCells where channel quality is low.
NOTE
After an SCell is deactivated based on channel quality, the CA UE no longer reports the SCell's CQI to
the eNodeB. The eNodeB may subsequently activate the SCell based on traffic volume. To prevent
frequent SCell activation and deactivation, set CaMgtCfg.SccReActivationTime, which specifies the
minimum interval between SCell deactivation and traffic-volume-based reactivation. This parameter is
PCell-specific. It takes effect in the PCell, which makes activation decisions.
Residual Block Error–triggered SCell Deactivation

In the downlink, when an eNodeB detects that the residual block errors in an SCell for a CA
UE have reached a certain level, the eNodeB delivers a MAC CE to deactivate the SCell.
In the uplink:
l If the SccDeactByUlDtxSwitch option of the EnodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoExtSwitch
parameter is selected, the eNodeB delivers a MAC CE to deactivate an SCell for a CA
UE when the eNodeB detects that the eNodeB-maintained SCell activation status is
different from the actual status.
l If the SccDeactByUlDtxSwitch option of the EnodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoExtSwitch
parameter is deselected, the eNodeB delivers a MAC CE to deactivate an SCell for a CA
UE when the eNodeB detects that the residual block errors in the SCell have reached a
certain level.
NOTE
l To enable eNodeBs to detect the actual SCell activation status, operators must select the
SccDeactByUlDtxSwitch option for each eNodeB involved in CA. If operators select the option
only for the serving eNodeB of the PCell or an SCell, the probability of successfully detecting
activation status inconsistency decreases.
l Operators are advised to select the SccDeactByUlDtxSwitch option in scenarios other than high
uplink load. If this option is selected in high uplink load scenarios, the data rates in SCells will drop.
3.2.11 SCell Removal

To have SCells removed when their signal quality is poor, enable the SCell removal function.
When an SCell meets the triggering condition of event A2, the eNodeB that serves the PCell
of a CA UE removes the SCell. Figure 3-32 illustrates this function.

eRAN
Figure 3-32 SCell removal
If the eNodeB removes n SCells for a UE in the uplink or downlink mCC aggregation state,
the UE will be served by m–n carriers.
NOTE
When a bearer for an emergency call or with QCI 1, 65, 66, or an enhanced extended QCI is set up for a
CA UE whose SCells have been configured, the eNodeB does not remove the SCells.
CA-Group-based SCell Removal

When SccA2RmvSwitch under the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter is on, the
eNodeB may deliver A2 measurement configurations to CA UEs.
l If an SCell has been configured for a CA UE based on A4 measurements, the eNodeB
sends the A2 measurement configuration related to the SCell to the UE. The threshold
for event A2 is equal to CaMgtCfg.CarrAggrA2ThdRsrp configured for the PCell plus
CaGroupSCellCfg.SCellA2Offset. After receiving an A2 measurement report that
contains the SCell, the eNodeB sends an RRC Connection Reconfiguration message to
remove the SCell.
l If an SCell has been configured for a CA UE in a blind manner, the eNodeB checks the
setting of SCellBlindA2Switch under the GlobalProcSwitch.ProtocolCompatibilitySW
parameter before making a measurement configuration delivery decision. The eNodeB
sends the A2 measurement configuration to the UE only if SCellBlindA2Switch is on.
The threshold for event A2 takes the 3GPP-defined minimum value –140 dBm. After
receiving an A2 measurement report that contains the SCell, the eNodeB sends an RRC
Connection Reconfiguration message to remove the SCell.
When SccA2RmvSwitch under the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter is off, the
eNodeB does not deliver A2 measurement configurations to CA UEs.
NOTE
In CA-group-based configuration mode, the following setting constraint applies: The threshold for event
A4 must be higher than the threshold for event A2. In addition, only the values in the range of [-143,
-43] take effect for both thresholds.

eRAN
Adaptive SCell Removal

If SccA2RmvSwitch under the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter is on, the
eNodeB delivers the A2 measurement configuration to a CA UE after configuring an SCell
for the UE based on A4 measurements or in a blind manner. After receiving an A2
measurement report that contains the SCell, the eNodeB sends an RRC Connection
Reconfiguration message to remove the SCell.
When setting the parameters for these thresholds, ensure that the threshold for event A4 is
higher than the threshold for event A2. If the threshold for event A4 is not higher than the
threshold for event A2 and SccA2RmvSwitch under the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch
parameter is on, the eNodeB will remove an SCell based on event A2 immediately after
configuring the SCell. Then, if the traffic volume of the CA UE meets the SCell activation
conditions throughout a certain period of time, the eNodeB configures the SCell again. As a
result, the SCell is configured and removed repeatedly. The two thresholds are defined as
follows:
l Threshold for event A4 = CaMgtCfg.CarrAggrA4ThdRsrp + SccFreqCfg.SccA4Offset.

If the sum is greater than –43 dBm or less than –140 dBm, the threshold takes the
value –43 dBm or –140 dBm, respectively.
l Threshold for event A2 = CaMgtCfg.CarrAggrA2ThdRsrp + SccFreqCfg.SccA2Offset.
If the sum is greater than –43 dBm or less than –140 dBm, the threshold takes the
value –43 dBm or –140 dBm, respectively.
If SccA2RmvSwitch is off, the eNodeB does not deliver the A2 measurement configuration.
If the CaSmartSelectionSwitch option of the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter

is selected and the CaMgtCfg.FastScellSelAftScellRmvSw parameter is set to ON, the
eNodeB performs an SCell configuration procedure immediately after all SCells are removed
for a CA UE based on coverage conditions, increasing the CA UE throughput. This procedure
is the same as the adaptive SCell configuration procedure that occurs when the
CaSmartSelectionSwitch option of the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter is
selected.
3.3 Other Key Techniques Under CA

The key techniques described in this section work when any CA features are enabled.
3.3.1 Connection Management Under CA

When CA features are enabled, connection management has the following characteristics:
l After an RRC connection is set up between a CA UE and a cell, the cell acts as the PCell
of the UE. The PCell transmits non-access stratum (NAS) messages for the UE.
l An eNodeB configures SCells for a CA UE by sending messages over the RRC
connection. After the SCells are configured, the CA UE still has only one RRC
connection with the network and is allocated only one cell radio network temporary
identifier (C-RNTI).
l The PCell and SCells for a CA UE each have a complete set of channels with one
exception: physical uplink control channel (PUCCH). This channel carries layer 1 uplink
control information, such as acknowledgments (ACKs) or negative ACKs (NACKs) to
downlink data, scheduling requests, and periodic channel state information (CSI). The
PUCCH exists only in the PCell.

eRAN
l The PCell is selected for a CA UE during initial access or an RRC connection

reestablishment. A handover is required to change the PCell for the UE. If a radio link
failure (RLF) occurs in the PCell, an RRC connection reestablishment procedure is
triggered.
l SCells can be deactivated, but the PCell cannot. Only the eNodeB that serves the PCell
can deactivate and remove SCells.
For more details about connection management, see Connection Management.
3.3.2 Mobility Management Under CA

This section describes how mobility management works when CA features are enabled.
Handover Messages
The handover procedures for CA UEs have the following characteristics:
l The handover procedure for PCell changes is the same as a common handover
procedure, in which the eNodeB sends an RRC Connection Reconfiguration message
that contains the IE mobilityControlInfo to the UE.
l Unlike a common handover procedure, the handover procedure that involves SCell
configuration or removal has the following characteristics:
– If SCell configuration is required, the eNodeB sends an RRC Connection
Reconfiguration message that contains the IE sCellToAddModList to the UE.
– If SCell removal is required, the eNodeB sends an RRC Connection
Reconfiguration message that contains the IE sCellToReleaseList to the UE.
The number of CCs configured in source and target eNodeBs is not relevant to the handover
procedure. If the target eNodeB is configured with two, three, four, or five downlink CCs, the
SCell configuration procedure takes place for 2CC, 3CC, 4CC, or 5CC aggregation,
respectively.
The RRC Connection Reconfiguration and the preceding IEs can be traced as described in
6.4.5 Activation Observation.
Measurement Configuration
If an eNodeB performs CA for a CA UE whose signal quality is so poor that an inter-
frequency handover may occur, the spectral efficiency of the network decreases and the block
error rate (BLER) increases. To prevent this, set thresholds as described in Table 3-6.

eRAN
Table 3-6 Threshold setting rules

Threshold Parameter Setting Rules
Threshold for l In CA-group-based configuration This threshold must be greater

CA event A4 mode: A4 threshold = than or equal to the threshold

l In adaptive configuration mode: InterFreqHoGroup.InterFre
A2 threshold = qHoA2ThdRsrp parameter.
CaMgtCfg.CarrAggrA2ThdRsrp
+ SccFreqCfg.SccA2Offset
Blacklist Control over Autonomous Gap

Certain UEs with the autonomous gap function enabled will encounter measurement errors or
even service drops. These UEs can be blacklisted so that the autonomous gap function does
not take effect on them. For details about this function, see Terminal Awareness
Differentiation.
Handover Events
CA UEs report events for eNodeBs to evaluate the following handovers:
l Intra-frequency handover (Related parameters are configured in the IntraFreqHoGroup
MO.)
An eNodeB performs an intra-frequency handover for a CA UE when it receives an A3
measurement report from the UE in the PCell.
l Inter-frequency handover (Related parameters are configured in the InterFreqHoGroup
MO.)
After receiving an A2 measurement report from a CA UE in the PCell, the eNodeB
serving the PCell delivers the inter-frequency measurement configuration to the UE. The
measurement configuration varies depending on whether SCells have been configured:
– When SCells have been configured for the UE, the eNodeB delivers the A3
measurement configuration if EutranInterNFreq.InterFreqHoEventType is set to
EventA3. If this parameter is set to a value other than EventA3, the eNodeB
delivers the A5 measurement configuration.
– If no SCell has been configured for the UE, the eNodeB delivers the measurement
configuration related to the event specified by
EutranInterNFreq.InterFreqHoEventType.

eRAN
The eNodeB performs an inter-frequency handover for the UE when it receives a

measurement report of the specified event from the UE.
NOTE
l For the triggering conditions for the preceding events, see Intra-RAT Mobility Management in
Connected Mode. Event A5 is triggered if the signal quality in the PCell is lower than the
threshold for handover event A2 and the signal quality in at least one neighboring cell is
higher than the threshold for handover event A4.
l It is recommended that threshold 1 for event A5 be the same as the threshold for inter-
frequency handover event A2. If threshold 1 is lower than or equal to the threshold for blind
handover event A2, the eNodeB will not deliver A5 measurement configurations to the UEs.
Frequency-Priority-based Handover
If the operator-specified frequency with the highest priority for frequency-priority-based
handovers is different from the frequency with the highest priority for PCC anchoring, you are
advised to select the FreqPriBasedHoCaFiltSwitch option of the
ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter. In such a case, the eNodeB does not deliver
the measurement configuration related to frequency-priority-based handovers to CA UEs. If
you do not select this option, frequency-priority-based handovers may occur on CA UEs soon
after the UEs are handed over to a frequency with a high PCC anchoring priority.
If a frequency has both the highest priority for frequency-priority-based handovers and the
highest priority for PCC anchoring, you can deselect the FreqPriBasedHoCaFiltSwitch and
PccAnchorSwitch options of the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter. In such a
case, mobility of both CA UEs and non-CA UEs is subject to the frequency priorities defined
for frequency-priority-based handovers.
Load-based Handover
If a CA UE meets the triggering conditions for load balancing, the eNodeB performs a load-
based inter-frequency handover on the UE. For details about this type of handover, see Intra-
RAT Mobility Load Balancing.
SCell Configuration During Handovers

To reduce the SCell configuration delay, enable SCell configuration during handovers by
selecting the HoWithSccCfgSwitch option of the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch
parameter. The procedure for SCell configuration during handovers varies depending on the
setting of HoWithSccCfgSwitch.
l If HoWithSccCfgSwitch is on for both the source and target eNodeBs, this function is
enabled. The procedure is as follows:
a. The source eNodeB includes the IE reportAddNeighMeas in the handover-related
A3, A4, and A5 measurement configurations delivered to the CA UE.
b. The CA UE sends the source eNodeB the measurement reports that contain the
measurement result of the best cell on each serving frequency (in the IE
measResultBestNeighCell) and the PCell and SCell measurement results (in the IEs
measResultPCell and measResultSCell).
c. The source eNodeB includes the best cell information (and the blind-configurable
candidate SCells of the source cell, if
ENodeBAlgoSwitch.HoWithSccCfgAddBlindSwitch is set to ON) in the IE
CandidateCellInfoList of the handover request message and sends the message to
the target eNodeB.

eRAN
d. The target eNodeB acquires measurement results from the IE

CandidateCellInfoList, determines the new SCell to be configured to accompany
the target cell (acting as the PCell) of the handover, and updates the IE
sCellToAddModList with the new SCell information. The target eNodeB then sends
the updated information in the handover command to the source eNodeB.
The eNodeB preferentially selects blind-configurable candidate SCells as new
SCells. This takes effect in adaptive configuration mode only if
HoWithSccCfgBlindFirstSw under the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoExtSwitch
parameter is on, but it takes effect in CA-group-based configuration mode without
switch control.
e. The source eNodeB sends an RRC Connection Reconfiguration message containing
the IEs mobilityControlInfo, sCellToReleaseList, and sCellToAddModList to
remove the original SCells and configure the new SCells during the handover.
If this procedure fails, no SCell is configured for the UE that has been handed over to the
target cell. The target eNodeB then performs an SCell configuration procedure. For
details, see 3.2.5.1 CA-Group-based SCell Configuration and 3.2.5.2 Adaptive SCell
Configuration.
NOTE
l The preceding procedure results in fewer blind or A4-based SCell configurations.

l SCell configuration during a handover requires that a routing relationship be set up between
the SCell and the target cell of the handover.
l If SCell configuration during handovers is enabled, the eNodeB attempts to configure SCells
without considering the load status of candidate SCells, when PCC anchoring is triggered. This
shortens the SCell configuration delay.
l During a blind handover of a CA UE with heavy uplink traffic load for MLB, the source
eNodeB includes the PCell and SCell information about the UE in the handover request sent to
the target eNodeB. Based on the received information, the target eNodeB selects the SCells to
be configured for the CA UE after the handover.
l If HoWithSccCfgSwitch is off for both the source and target eNodeBs, this function is
disabled. The procedure is as follows:
The source eNodeB delivers an RRC Connection Reconfiguration message to remove
the SCells of the CA UE and performs an intra- or inter-frequency handover for the UE.
After the UE is handed over to the target cell, the target eNodeB configures SCells for
the UE.
NOTE
l If RcvA2CfgSccSwitch under the CaMgtCfg.CellCaAlgoSwitch parameter is off, SCell

configuration and A4 measurement configuration for carrier management are dependent on event A2
reporting:
If the eNodeB that serves the PCell of a CA UE receives a handover-related event A2 report from
the UE, the eNodeB stops configuring SCells for the UE and no longer delivers new A4
measurement configurations related to carrier management to the UE.
If the eNodeB receives a handover-related event A1 report, the eNodeB configures SCells for the
UE in a blind manner (if blind SCell configuration is enabled) or after receiving an event A4 report
related to carrier management from the UE. In addition, the eNodeB delivers new A4 measurement
configurations related to carrier management to the UE.
l If RcvA2CfgSccSwitch under the CaMgtCfg.CellCaAlgoSwitch parameter is on, SCell
configuration and A4 measurement configuration for carrier management are not relevant to event
A2 reporting.
For more details about mobility management, see Overview of Mobility Management in
Connected Mode.

3.3.3 Admission and Congestion Control Under CA

This section describes how admission control and congestion control work when CA features
are enabled.
Admission Control
Admission control under CA differs from admission control without CA in the following
ways:
l Admission control based on the number of UEs
When an eNodeB receives an access request from a CA UE (for RRC connection setup
or reestablishment, an incoming handover, or a transition from out-of-synchronization to
in-synchronization), the eNodeB performs admission control in both the PCell and
SCells based on the number of UEs in the individual cells. If the eNodeB accepts the
access request, it treats the UE as an RRC_CONNECTED UE in each serving cell.
However, only the RRC_CONNECTED UEs in the PCell consume UE count license
units. As a result, for example, if all UEs on the entire network have their SCells
activated and work in the 2CC aggregation state, the maximum number of UEs that can
access the network decreases by half, and the number of consumed UE count license
units is equal to the actual number of UEs that have accessed the network.
When a preemption-capable UE attempts to access a cell configured on a BBP where the
number of UEs has reached the maximum, the eNodeB preferentially releases other CA
UEs that treat the cell as their SCell. The release maximizes the total number of UEs on
the entire network.
l Admission control based on QoS satisfaction rates
This type of admission control applies to guaranteed bit rate (GBR) services of CA UEs
only in their PCells.
If a CA UE is admitted to its PCell, the UE accesses the network.
If the UE is not admitted to its PCell and:
– If the UE is incapable of preemption, the UE cannot access the network.
– If the UE is capable of preemption, the UE performs preemption.
n If the preemption is successful, the UE accesses the network.
n If the preemption fails, the UE cannot access the network.
For more details about admission control, see Admission and Congestion Control.
Congestion Control
Huawei eNodeBs relieve traffic congestion mainly by releasing GBR services. When a cell is
overloaded, GBR services in the cell do not meet their QoS requirements. If DlLdcSwitch
and UlLdcSwitch under the CellAlgoSwitch.RacAlgoSwitch parameter are on for the cell,
the eNodeB releases low-priority GBR services in the cell to ensure the satisfaction rates of
high-priority GBR services. This congestion control mechanism works in CA scenarios.
If congestion control over GBR services is triggered in a cell due to insufficient radio
resources, the eNodeB releases the GBR services of CA UEs that treat this cell as their PCell
and the GBR services of non-CA UEs in this cell. (Non-CA UEs are terminals that do not
support CA.) When the eNodeB selects the UEs whose services are to be released, it removes
CA UEs that treat the cell as their SCell from the list of prioritized candidates. If a service to
be released is the only GBR service of a UE that meets the redirection condition, the eNodeB

eRAN
redirects the UE. If the service is not the only GBR service or the redirection condition is not
met, the eNodeB releases this GBR service of the UE.
For more details about congestion control, see Admission and Congestion Control.
3.3.4 Scheduling Under CA

This section describes how scheduling works when CA features are enabled.
For GBR services, scheduling with CA enabled is almost the same as scheduling with CA
disabled. The goal of scheduling is still to meet the QoS requirements of GBR services.
For non-GBR services, Huawei has designed two scheduling methods: basic scheduling and
differentiated scheduling. The scheduling method is specified by the
CellDlschAlgo.CaSchStrategy parameter. The default method is basic scheduling. The
scheduling method must be consistent between serving cells to prevent data transmission
exceptions. The following presents the characteristics of the two methods:
l Basic scheduling
When physical resource blocks (PRBs) on a network are abundant, basic scheduling
works in the same way as differentiated scheduling. CA UEs can use sufficient PRBs to
meet their service requirements.
When there is PRB congestion on a network, basic scheduling works with fairness taken
into consideration. The data rate of a CA UE is almost the same as the data rate of a non-
CA UE that runs services with the same QCI.
Due to inconsistent spectral efficiency for the CA UE between the PCC and SCCs, basic
scheduling does not achieve the same data rates for CA and non-CA UEs when planning
to allocate the same number of PRBs to the two UEs.
– If the difference in spectral efficiency between the PCC and SCCs is large (for
example, when the CA UE is located at the edge of a cell), there is a large
difference in the number of allocated PRBs between the CA UE and the non-CA
UE.
– If the spectral efficiency is almost the same between the PCC and SCCs, the
number of PRBs allocated to the CA UE is close to that of PRBs allocated to the
non-CA UE.
The CellDlschAlgo.CaSchWeight parameter has been added to eRAN11.1 to specify the
differentiated scheduling factor for CA UEs when the scheduling method is basic
scheduling. This parameter provides GUI values of 0 to 10, which correspond to actual
values of 0 to 1. It takes effect only in downlink scheduling. A larger parameter value
results in more scheduling differentiation between CA UEs and non-CA UEs. A smaller
parameter value results in fairer scheduling. This is a parameter to be set for the PCell.
When this parameter is set to the default value 0, basic scheduling works in the same
way as before. When this parameter is set to a value other than 0, the number of PRBs
allocated to a CA UE is (1 + n x m) times the number of PRBs allocated to a non-CA
UE, where n is the number of activated SCells and m is the actual value of the
CellDlschAlgo.CaSchWeight parameter.
l Differentiated scheduling
The data rate of a CA UE for priority calculation is defined as the data rate only on the
current CC of the UE. On each CC, the CA UE is allocated the same number of RBs as a
non-CA UE on the same CC. Therefore, the number of RBs allocated to the CA UE is
the sum of the average number of RBs allocated to a non-CA UE in each of the serving
cells. The data rate of the CA UE served by n CCs is almost n times the data rate of a

eRAN
non-CA UE, when the spectral efficiencies of the CCs are close to each other, UEs are
evenly distributed on the CCs, and channel conditions are the same between the CCs.
In differentiated scheduling, a CA UE is treated as a common UE on each CC. It is
scheduled separately in the CCs. Therefore, a CA UE can be assigned more PRBs and
provide a better user experience than a non-CA UE. However, radio resources for non-
CA UEs decrease.
UE scheduling on their PCCs and SCCs varies depending on the CA scenario:
l In inter-eNodeB CA based on centralized eNodeB coordination and in intra-eNodeB CA,

when RLC unacknowledged mode (UM) is used, the eNodeB that serves the PCell
schedules the UE only on the PCC if the service type is VoLTE or emergency call. (If a
UE reverts from the uplink CA state to the single-carrier state due to insufficient power,
an original SCC may become the only carrier and scheduling on this SCC occurs.) If the
service type is not VoLTE or emergency call, the eNodeB can schedule the UE on all the
CCs. For details about RLC UM, see section 4.2.1 "RLC entities" in 3GPP TS 36.322
V10.0.0.
l In inter-eNodeB CA based on relaxed backhaul, when RLC UM is used, the eNodeB that
serves the PCell schedules the UE only on the PCC regardless of service types (VoLTE,
emergency call, real-time video or voice streaming, or real-time gaming).
Currently, frequency-selective scheduling is not used in SCells by default. To enable

frequency-selective scheduling in an SCell, set CellDlschAlgo.CaSccDopMeas to
FROMPCC(FROMPCC).
For more details about scheduling, see Scheduling Feature Parameter Description.
NOTE
If an SCell is configured for a CA UE in the uplink, uplink scheduling uses the method configured for
downlink scheduling: basic or differentiated scheduling.
3.3.5 MIMO Under CA
MIMO Schemes
In CA scenarios, each CC supports 2T or 4T MIMO (the number of antennas may vary with
carriers). The MIMO scheme is separately configured for each CC.
l If the CellMimoParaCfg.MimoAdaptiveSwitch parameter is set to

NO_ADAPTIVE(NO_ADAPTIVE) for a cell, the transmission mode specified by the
CellMimoParaCfg.FixedMimoMode parameter takes effect. The transmission mode
can be TM2, TM3, TM4, or TM6.
l If the CellMimoParaCfg.MimoAdaptiveSwitch parameter is set to
OL_ADAPTIVE(OL_ADAPTIVE), CL_ADAPTIVE(CL_ADAPTIVE), or
OC_ADAPTIVE(OC_ADAPTIVE) for a cell, the specified transmission mode
adaptation takes effect in the cell.
l If TM9Switch(TM9Switch) under the CellAlgoSwitch.EnhMIMOSwitch parameter is
on and the CellCsiRsParaCfg.CsiRsSwitch parameter is set to FIXED_CFG(Fixed
configure), TM9-capable CA UEs work in TM9 and other CA UEs work in a MIMO
scheme depending on the setting of the CellMimoParaCfg.MimoAdaptiveSwitch
parameter.

eRAN
On a 4T MIMO network, CA works in DL 4x2 MIMO or in DL 4x4 MIMO scenarios,

depending on the reception capabilities of the CA UEs. If a CA UE supports 2R, CA works in
DL 4x2 MIMO scenarios. If a CA UE supports 4R, CA works in DL 4x4 MIMO scenarios.
When FDD and TDD cells serve as the PCell and an SCell for uplink FDD+TDD CA,
respectively, the SRS subframe configurations of the two cells must overlap if the TDD SCell
needs to support TM7, TM8, or TM9w/oPMI.
For more details about MIMO, see MIMO.
UEs
The way the terminal industry chain has developed, some UEs do not support aggregation of
the maximum number of CCs while using the highest-order MIMO configurations. For
example, some UEs support aggregation of three 2x2 MIMO CCs or aggregation of one 4x4
MIMO CC and one 2x4 MIMO CC, but not aggregation of three 4x4 MIMO CCs.
For these UEs, the CaMgtCfg.CaMimoPriorityStrategySw parameter can be used to
determine the policy for adaptive selection of CA or high-order MIMO.
l If this parameter is set to CA_PRIOR, CA takes precedence over high-order MIMO
after UEs access the network. The number of CCs can reach the maximum value
specified on the network.
l If this parameter is set to MIMO_PRIOR, high-order MIMO takes effect when the CQI
and IBLER of the UE meet the conditions for reaching peak data rates. When the CQI or
IBLER does not meet the conditions, CA takes effect, allowing aggregation of the
maximum number of CCs.
l If this parameter is set to PEAK_RATE_PRIOR, the CA and MIMO combination
producing the highest peak data rate takes effect.
If higher-order MIMO produces a higher peak data rate than aggregation of the
maximum number of CCs, high-order MIMO takes effect when the CQI and IBLER of
the UE meet the conditions for reaching peak data rates. If any of the peak data rate,
CQI, and IBLER does not meet their respective conditions, CA takes effect, allowing
aggregation of the maximum number of CCs.
On commercial networks, the actual downlink data rate of a UE may fail to reach its
maximum if there is a large load difference between the CCs of the UE.
3.3.6 DRX Control Under CA

In discontinuous reception (DRX) mode, UEs save power by not monitoring the physical
downlink control channel (PDCCH) for certain periods.
In accordance with section 5.7 "Discontinuous Reception (DRX)" in 3GPP TS 36.321
V11.2.0, the same active time applies to all activated serving cells.
For this purpose, all the serving cells use the DRX parameters of the PCell, including On
Duration Timer, DRX Inactivity Timer, and DRX Short Cycle Timer. Figure 3-33 shows an
example of the DRX configuration under CA.

eRAN
Figure 3-33 Common DRX configuration
When CA features are enabled, DRX control works as follows:
l If DRX is enabled in all the PCell and SCells for a CA UE, the UE states in the cells are
handled as follows when the serving eNodeB of the PCell sends a MAC CE to activate
the SCells:
– If the UE has entered the DRX state in the PCell, the UE now also enters the DRX
state in SCells, with the DRX parameters for the PCell applied to the SCells.
– If the UE has not entered the DRX state in the PCell, the eNodeB determines
whether the UE should enter the DRX state in all the PCell and SCells based on the
traffic volume of the UE.
l If DRX is enabled in the PCell but disabled in an SCell, the UE exits and no longer
enters the DRX state after the SCell is configured for the UE.
l If DRX is disabled in the PCell, the UE will not enter the DRX state in either the PCell
or SCells, regardless of whether DRX is enabled in the SCells.
l If DRX and uplink FDD+TDD CA are both enabled, the
DrxParaGroup.OnDurationTimer parameter must be set to a value greater than four
subframes for the FDD cell.
For more details about DRX control, see DRX and Signaling Control.
3.3.7 RAN Sharing Under CA

In RAN sharing scenarios, the operators involved allocate resources to their subscribers based
on the predefined proportions of resources. To enhance fairness in resource usage among the
operators that share a carrier, differentiated scheduling is recommended.
CA UEs can access only operator-specific carriers (either in PCells or in SCells). Assume that
there are three frequencies:
l f1, shared by operators A and B

l f2, dedicated to operator A
l f3, dedicated to operator B
On this network, only the carriers of f1 and f2 can be aggregated for CA UEs of operator A,
and only the carriers of f1 and f3 can be aggregated for CA UEs of operator B. CA UEs of
operator A cannot access cells on f3 or have cells on f3 configured as their SCells. In addition,
CA UEs of operator B cannot access cells on f2 or have cells on f2 configured as their SCells.

eRAN
If equivalent PLMNs are configured or inter-PLMN handovers are enabled, carriers of

frequencies owned by different operators can be aggregated. For details about the
configuration, see Overview of Mobility Management in Connected Mode Feature Parameter
Description.
For more details about RAN sharing, see RAN Sharing Feature Parameter Description.
3.3.8 Power Control Under CA

If an SCell has been configured and activated for a CA UE in the uplink, uplink power control
works separately on the two CCs. The UE sends CC-specific extended power headroom
reports (PHRs) to the eNodeB. Based on the reports, the eNodeB calculates the total required
power for the two CCs. The required power for the PCC or an SCC is equal to the maximum
transmit power supported by the UE minus the power headroom indicated in the PCC- or
SCC-specific extended PHR, respectively. If the total required power exceeds the maximum
transmit power of the UE while the transmit power per PRB remains unchanged, the eNodeB
reduces the number of uplink PRBs for the UE until the UE enters the single carrier state.
NOTE
Extended PHR is an information element introduced by 3GPP for uplink CA UEs. It contains the PHR
for each CC. For details, see section 6.1.3.6a "Extended Power Headroom MAC Control Element" in
3GPP TS 36.321 V11.0.0.
The UlCaPuschPcOptSwitch option of the CellAlgoSwitch.UlPcAlgoSwitch parameter can

be selected to increase the probability of uplink CA. This is because when this option is
selected, more uplink power headroom is available to the PCell and SCell of each UE.
However, selecting this option does not produce gains for an uplink CA UE that experiences
poor uplink SINR in its SCell in relaxed backhaul scenarios.
3.3.9 MTA Under CA

For UEs that support uplink CA, both PCells and SCells provide uplink resources. It is
recommended that multiple timing advances (MTA) be enabled in either of the following
scenarios because using a single TA has a significant impact on demodulation performance:
l There is a noticeable difference (for example, about 78 meters, which is equivalent to a
TA) between the distances of a CA UE to the receive antennas of the PCell and an SCell.
l The PCell and an SCell are not served by the same pRRU of a LampSite eNodeB.
The switch used to enable MTA varies depending on the CA scenario:
l Single-duplex-mode uplink 2CC aggregation: the MtaAlgSwitch option of the
ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter
l FDD+TDD uplink 2CC aggregation: the FTMtaAlgSwitch option of the
ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoExTSwitch parameter
After an SCell is configured and activated in both downlink and uplink for a CA UE, the
eNodeB sends a PDCCH order to the UE and, as instructed, the UE initiates a non-contention-
based random access procedure in the SCell. The eNodeB then sends the UE a random access
response to configure a secondary timing advance group (sTAG) for the UE. The network
maintains a TA for each serving cell of the UE.
If the number of preamble retransmissions in the SCell reaches the maximum, the random
access procedure fails. The UE stops random access without instructing the PCell to perform
RRC connection reestablishment. As a result, the UE is out-of-synchronization in the uplink,
and only downlink scheduling is allowed.

eRAN
NOTE
For details about PDCCH order, see section 8.0 "UE procedure for transmitting the physical uplink
shared channel" in 3GPP TS 36.213 V11.4.0.
If a TDD cell and an FDD cell act as the PCell and SCell respectively in uplink 2CC
aggregation for a UE and the FTMtaAlgSwitch option of the
ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoExTSwitch parameter is selected:
l The eNodeB preferentially instructs the UE to send sounding reference signal (SRS) in
the 13th orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol of an uplink
subframe. Uplink scheduling of the UE in the FDD cell yields to the SRS transmission to
ensure beamforming gains in the TDD cell.
l If the CellPdcchAlgo.ComSigCongregLv parameter is set to CONGREG_LV8 for the
TDD cell, the PDCCH control channel element (CCE) aggregation level for common
control signaling is so high that the eNodeB transmit power might be insufficient for
sending a Random Access Response message to the UE. This negatively affects
configuration of the uplink SCell for the UE.

SDMA requires that UEs report sounding reference

is configured as an SCell for a CA UE only in
the downlink, only joint scheduling can be used
in the SCell. If the SCell is also configured for
the uplink, independent scheduling can be used
in the cell.
LOFD-070208 Coordinated This feature requires a centralized controller,

Scheduling based which is a process deployed on a BBP in the
Power Control eNodeB. The centralized controller increases
the average throughput of cells on the affected
frequency and the cell edge UE throughput in
the network. However, it has a negative impact
on the high-throughput UEs that cause co-
channel interference on the cell edge UEs. If
basic scheduling is used with CA, the data rate
of a CA UE is the total data rate of the UE on
all the aggregated carriers and therefore is
typically higher than the data rate of a non-CA
UE. As a result, CA UEs have a lower
probability of being scheduled and therefore a
lower data rate in CSPC scenarios.

Name
LBFD-001015 Enhanced The enhanced scheduling algorithm performs

Scheduling scheduling for each CA UE in the UE's PCell and
SCells. In basic scheduling, the priority of CA UEs is
services with the same QCI on the PCC. In
differentiated scheduling, the priority of CA UEs is
services with the same QCI on each CC. That is, for a
CA UE, the priority on the PCC is the same as that of
such a non-CA UE on the PCC, and the priority on an
SCC is the same as that of such a non-CA UE on the
SCC.
For services with QCI 1, 65, 66, or an enhanced
extended QCI, the algorithm performs scheduling
only in the PCell of each UE.

Impacted Features
LBFD-002028 Emergency Call When a CA UE is running an emergency call

service, the eNodeB does not start SCell
configuration for the UE, preventing the impact
of RRC signaling on the service quality of the
ongoing emergency call. After the emergency
call service is finished, the eNodeB re-attempts
to configure SCells for the UE if the UE traffic
volume and SCell configuration interval
conditions are fulfilled.
LBFD-070103 Multi-Band If Multi-Band Compatibility Enhancement is

Compatibility enabled for a cell, the eNodeB checks whether
Enhancement the primary and secondary operating bands of
the cell are present in the CA band
combinations supported by CA UEs. The cell
can be configured as an SCell for a CA UE as
long as an operating band of the cell is included
UE. If the CA UE can operate in the primary
band and a secondary band and only the
secondary band supports CA, the eNodeB
transfers the UE to the secondary band through
an intra-cell handover before configuring the
cell as an SCell for the UE. An exception is
that if the eNodeB and CA UE both support the
freqBandIndicatorPriority-r12 IE, the eNodeB
directly configures the cell as an SCell for the
UE without transferring the UE to the
secondary band.

Scheduling persistent scheduling takes effect only in the
PCells for CA UEs.

LOFD-002002 Inter-RAT ANR details, see ANR Management Feature
LOFD-070205 Adaptive SFN/ Adaptive single frequency network (SFN)

SDMA requires UEs to report sounding reference
signal (SRS), based on which eNodeBs select
remote radio units (RRUs) for independent
scheduling of the UEs. If an adaptive SFN cell
is configured as an SCell for a CA UE only in
the downlink, only joint scheduling can be used
in the SCell. If the SCell is also configured for
the uplink, independent scheduling can be used
in the cell.
LOFD-070208 Coordinated This feature requires a centralized controller,

Scheduling based which is a process deployed on a BBP in the
Power Control eNodeB. The centralized controller increases
the average throughput of cells on the affected
frequency and the cell edge UE throughput in
the network. However, it has a negative impact
on the high-throughput UEs that cause co-
channel interference on the cell edge UEs. If
basic scheduling is used with CA, the data rate
of a CA UE is the total data rate of the UE on
all the aggregated carriers and therefore is
typically higher than the data rate of a non-CA
UE. As a result, CA UEs have a lower
probability of being scheduled and therefore a
lower data rate in CSPC scenarios.

RBLER-related counters produce larger values.
CQI reports about SCells of CA UEs are also
delayed, which affects the initial block error rate
(IBLER) of the UEs. The IBLER-related counters
produce larger values.
If a UE is located a medium or long distance from
the center of its PCell or SCell, the data rate of the
UE fluctuates.
LBFD-001015 Enhanced The impact applies only to the UEs for which
Scheduling inter-eNodeB CA based on relaxed backhaul takes

transmission delay, eNodeBs must estimate
scheduling opportunities for CA UEs in advance.

fairness among UEs but does not affect

eRAN
Carrier Aggregation Feature Parameter Description 5 Network Impact
5 Network Impact
5.1 LAOFD-00100101 Intra-Band Carrier Aggregation for

System Capacity
l Number of RRC_CONNECTED UEs
A CA UE with SCells configured has only one RRC connection to the network. It
consumes one sales unit of the license for the number of RRC_CONNECTED UEs.
However, the CA UE consumes a hardware resource unit in each of its serving cells. In
an extreme case with nCC aggregation for all UEs on the network, the maximum number
of UEs that can access the network decreases to 1/n (n is an integer.) When all hardware
resources are used, the eNodeB preferentially releases CA UEs in their SCells to
maximize the number of UEs that can access the network.
l PUCCH and PUSCH overheads
Each CA UE sends the ACK/NACK and CSI related to its SCells in its PCell. When the
PUSCH is not scheduled, the UE sends the information over the PUCCH. When the
PUSCH is scheduled, the UE sends the information over the PUSCH. Therefore,
PUCCH overhead or PUSCH associated signaling overhead increases.
l Overall throughput in the entire network
CA does not directly affect network capacity. However, when resources on a network
have not been exhausted, CA increases the resource usage and overall throughput in the
network.
l Data rates of CA UEs
– When resources on a network have not been exhausted, CA in the network
increases the data rates of CA UEs.
– When resources on a network have been exhausted, the data rates of CA UEs are
dependent on scheduling policies (described in 3.3.4 Scheduling Under CA) and
UE locations. Activating an SCell may result in a decrease in the overall SCell
throughput if the UE is located at the edge of the SCell. However, activating an
SCell may cause an increase in the overall SCell throughput if the UE is located in
the cell center or at a place of a medium distance to the center of the SCell.

eRAN
– If the CaMgtCfg.CaMimoPriorityStrategySw parameter is set to MIMO_PRIOR,

the user-perceived data rates of CA UEs may decrease because of a low probability
of using rank 3 or 4 on commercial networks.
Network Performance
l Overall PRB usage of the network
In commercial networks, most services on CA UEs are burst services, and there is little
probability that PRBs in all CCs of a UE will be exhausted simultaneously. When CA is
enabled, cell load can be rapidly balanced through carrier management and scheduling,
utilizing idle resources and increasing the overall PRB usage of the network.
l PRB usage of SCells
If the Dl2CCAckResShareSw option of the CELLALGOSWITCH.PucchAlgoSwitch
parameter is selected, due to possible errors in the estimated scheduling priority of
individual CA UEs, the PRBs in SCells may not be fully utilized when each SCell is
serving a small number of non-CA UEs and the non-CA UE traffic is light.
l Number of CQI reports
In accordance with section 10.1.1 "PUCCH format information" of 3GPP TS 36.213
V10.10.0, CA UEs cannot send CSI reports together with ACK/NACK over the PUCCH
with format 1b. Therefore, the UEs discard CSI reports in accordance with 3GPP
specifications. CSI reports include periodic CQI reports. As a result, the number of CQI
reports from CA UEs decreases, as indicated by the values of the L.ChMeas.CQI.DL.0 to
L.ChMeas.CQI.DL.15 counters, after CA is enabled.
When the number of CQI reports from CA UEs decreases, the total number of CQI
reports in the entire network may decrease, increase, or remain unchanged, depending on
the radio conditions of the CA UEs and the ratio of CA UEs to all UEs. For example, if
CA UEs are located in cell centers and account for a high proportion of all UEs, the total
number of CQI reports may also decrease. If CA UEs are not located in cell centers or
they account for a low proportion, the total number of CQI reports may increase or
remain unchanged.
l KPI fluctuation
The PCell and SCells of each CA UE may not have the same channel quality. Therefore,
CQIs fluctuate after SCells are configured for CA UEs. If the channel quality in the
SCells of a CA UE is higher than that in the PCell, network performance improves in
terms of the cell throughput, number of RRC connection reestablishments, uplink
IBLER, downlink IBLER, uplink packet loss rate, downlink packet loss rate, and service
drop rate. If the channel quality in the SCells is lower than that in the PCell, these
performance indicators deteriorate.
l Downlink cell performance
The downlink IBLER of a cell will fluctuate if the 2CCDlCaEnhanceSwitch option of
the CaMgtCfg.CellCaAlgoSwitch parameter is selected.
5.2 LAOFD-00100102 Inter-Band Carrier Aggregation for

System Capacity
l Number of RRC_CONNECTED UEs

eRAN
A CA UE with SCells configured has only one RRC connection to the network. It
consumes one sales unit of the license for the number of RRC_CONNECTED UEs.
However, the CA UE consumes a hardware resource unit in each of its serving cells. In
an extreme case with nCC aggregation for all UEs on the network, the maximum number
of UEs that can access the network decreases to 1/n (n is an integer.) When all hardware
resources are used, the eNodeB preferentially releases CA UEs in their SCells to
maximize the number of UEs that can access the network.
l PUCCH and PUSCH overheads
Each CA UE sends the ACK/NACK and CSI related to its SCells in its PCell. When the
PUSCH is not scheduled, the UE sends the information over the PUCCH. When the
PUSCH is scheduled, the UE sends the information over the PUSCH. Therefore,
PUCCH overhead or PUSCH associated signaling overhead increases.
l Overall throughput in the entire network
CA does not directly affect network capacity. However, when resources on a network
have not been exhausted, CA increases the resource usage and overall throughput in the
network.
l Data rates of CA UEs
– When resources on a network have not been exhausted, CA in the network
increases the data rates of CA UEs.
– When resources on a network have been exhausted, the data rates of CA UEs are
dependent on scheduling policies (described in 3.3.4 Scheduling Under CA) and
UE locations. Activating an SCell may result in a decrease in the overall SCell
throughput if the UE is located at the edge of the SCell. However, activating an
SCell may cause an increase in the overall SCell throughput if the UE is located in
the cell center or at a place of a medium distance to the center of the SCell.
Network Performance
l Overall PRB usage of the network
In commercial networks, most services on CA UEs are burst services, and there is little
probability that PRBs in all CCs of a UE will be exhausted simultaneously. When CA is
enabled, cell load can be rapidly balanced through carrier management and scheduling,
utilizing idle resources and increasing the overall PRB usage of the network.
l PRB usage of SCells
If the Dl2CCAckResShareSw option of the CELLALGOSWITCH.PucchAlgoSwitch
parameter is selected, due to possible errors in the estimated scheduling priority of
individual CA UEs, the PRBs in SCells may not be fully utilized when each SCell is
serving a small number of non-CA UEs and the non-CA UE traffic is light.
l Number of CQI reports
In accordance with section 10.1.1 "PUCCH format information" of 3GPP TS 36.213
V10.10.0, CA UEs cannot send CSI reports together with ACK/NACK over the PUCCH
with format 1b. Therefore, the UEs discard CSI reports in accordance with 3GPP
specifications. CSI reports include periodic CQI reports. As a result, the number of CQI
reports from CA UEs decreases, as indicated by the values of the L.ChMeas.CQI.DL.0 to
L.ChMeas.CQI.DL.15 counters, after CA is enabled.
When the number of CQI reports from CA UEs decreases, the total number of CQI
reports in the entire network may decrease, increase, or remain unchanged, depending on
the radio conditions of the CA UEs and the ratio of CA UEs to all UEs. For example, if
CA UEs are located in cell centers and account for a high proportion of all UEs, the total

eRAN
number of CQI reports may also decrease. If CA UEs are not located in cell centers or
they account for a low proportion, the total number of CQI reports may increase or
remain unchanged.
l KPI fluctuation
The PCell and SCells of each CA UE may not have the same channel quality. Therefore,
CQIs fluctuate after SCells are configured for CA UEs. If the channel quality in the
SCells of a CA UE is higher than that in the PCell, network performance improves in
terms of the cell throughput, number of RRC connection reestablishments, uplink
IBLER, downlink IBLER, uplink packet loss rate, downlink packet loss rate, and service
drop rate. If the channel quality in the SCells is lower than that in the PCell, these
performance indicators deteriorate.
l Downlink cell performance
The downlink IBLER of a cell will fluctuate if the 2CCDlCaEnhanceSwitch option of
the CaMgtCfg.CellCaAlgoSwitch parameter is selected.

Coordinated eNodeB
System Capacity

Network Performance
l In a centralized eNodeB coordination scenario, where there is inter-eNodeB transmission
delay, the LAOFD-070202 feature has a slight negative impact on the peak data rate of a

eRAN
CA UE but does not affect user experience. The reason is that the data to be sent does
not arrive at an SCell of the UE on the SCell's scheduling occasion and the UE cannot be
scheduled at that moment.
l In a distributed eNodeB coordination scenario, if the RTT for inter-eNodeB transmission
is between 32 μs (including 32 μs) and 260 μs, the LAOFD-070202 feature has the
following impacts on the UEs involved:
– CQI reports for SCells are delayed, causing slight deterioration in frequency-
selective scheduling performance and an increase in IBLER.
– Reports of HARQ demodulation results are delayed, affecting the peak data rate of
a single UE and resulting in an increase in RBLER.
– CQI and IBLER feedback is delayed, causing a fluctuation in the data rate of UEs
located medium or long distances from the center of their SCells.
– Due to the difference in RLC data arrival time between the aggregated carriers, a
CA UE has to organize the received data during data combining. The data
organizing consumes UE CPU resources. If the CPU capacity is insufficient, the
data rate of the UE fluctuates.
– Due to possible errors in the estimated scheduling priority of a CA UE, the PRBs in
an SCell for the UE may not be fully utilized when the SCell is serving a small
number of non-CA UEs and the non-CA UE traffic is light.
– To minimize the impact of inter-eNodeB transmission delay, RLC retransmissions
occur only in the PCell of each CA UE. If the Uu bandwidth of the PCell is used up
by GBR services, RLC retransmissions for a CA UE are often blocked and the data
rate of the UE fluctuates.
– If an eNodeB detects congestion in the transmission queues on an eX2 interface, it
triggers backpressure on the inter-eNodeB CA UEs on the interface, and the data
rates of the CA UEs decrease. When the eNodeB detects that the congestion is
relieved, it stops the backpressure, and the data rates of the CA UEs return to the
original levels.

This feature imposes the following impact on the UEs involved:
l CQI reports for SCells are delayed, causing slight deterioration in frequency-selective

l Reports of HARQ demodulation results are delayed, affecting the peak data rate of a
single UE and resulting in an increase in RBLER.
l CQI and IBLER feedback is delayed, causing a fluctuation in the data rate of UEs

l Due to the difference in RLC data arrival time between the aggregated carriers, a CA UE

the CA UEs decrease. When the eNodeB detects that the congestion is relieved, it stops
the backpressure, and the data rates of the CA UEs return to the original levels.
5.7 LAOFD-080202 Carrier Aggregation for Uplink 2CC

System Capacity
No impact.
Network Performance
l This feature may cause a rise in uplink interference on networks because of an increase
in uplink resources consumed by CA UEs.
l If MTA is enabled, non-contention-based random access occurs in SCells. As a result,
the counters related to random access to the SCells return larger values. In addition, if
uplink power of CA UEs is limited, MTA measurements result in certain throughput
loss.
l Uplink throughput rises when the UlCaPuschPcOptSwitch option of the
CellAlgoSwitch.UlPcAlgoSwitch parameter is selected, as long as uplink resources are
sufficient. When this option is selected, the transmit power on each PRB decreases so
that more PRBs can be allocated to UEs. This function extends the number of UEs in the
uplink CA state. However, because more resources are now used by CA UEs, uplink
interference may rise, resulting in a higher uplink IBLER and a larger number of DTXs.

System Capacity
No impact.
Network Performance
This feature has the following impact on PUCCH overheads:
l If the PucchSwitch option of the CellAlgoSwitch.PucchAlgoSwitch parameter is
selected to enable adaptive PUCCH resource allocation, the eNodeB adds an RB for
PUCCH format-3 overhead. As a result, the number of RBs available for the PUSCH
decreases by at least one. (This number must be a multiple of 2, 3, or 5.) The total uplink
throughput decreases.

eRAN

deselected to enable fixed PUCCH resource allocation, the eNodeB changes the usage of
a PUCCH RB from periodic CQI reporting to PUCCH format-3 overhead. As a result,
more UEs have to use aperiodic CQI reporting, and downlink UE throughput may
slightly decrease.

5.11 MRFD-101222 FDD+TDD Downlink Carrier

System Capacity
No impact.
Network Performance
l When an FDD carrier is working as the PCC and TDD carriers are working as SCCs for
a CA UE, the downlink TDD spectrum resources are fully utilized, which increases the
downlink data rate. The FDD PCC also provides better uplink coverage for the CA UE
than a TDD carrier would for a non-CA UE.
l When a TDD carrier is working as the PCC, it can obtain beamforming gains,
represented by an increased downlink data rate. However, in certain scenarios, TTI
bundling may be triggered due to the limited number of bits for ACK/NACK over the
PUCCH in the TDD PCell, causing the downlink data rate to drop on each CC. TTI
bundling may be triggered when:
– The TDD PCell uses uplink-downlink configuration 2 and participates in FDD
+TDD 3CC, 4CC, or 5CC aggregation.
– The TDD PCell uses uplink-downlink configuration 1 and participates in FDD
+TDD 4CC or 5CC aggregation.
5.12 MRFD-111222 FDD+TDD Uplink Carrier

System Capacity
When a TDD cell acts as an SCell for a CA UE, the SCell offers beamforming gains in the
downlink and experiences an increase in its downlink throughput.
Network Performance
l When MTA is required in FDD+TDD CA scenarios, this feature increases the uplink
throughput of CA UEs and improves uplink performance if there is a noticeable
difference (for example, about 78 meters, which is equivalent to one TA) between the
distances of a CA UE to the receive antennas of the PCell and an SCell. In addition, due
to the non-contention-based random access to the SCell, the performance counters
related to random access to the SCell produce larger values.
l When CA is deployed between eNodeBs in relaxed backhaul scenarios, ACKs/NACKs
for the PCell and SCell may not be received promptly because of inter-eNodeB
transmission delay. This results in a decrease of no more than 5% in the downlink data
rates of CA UEs. In addition, due to inter-eNodeB transmission delay, transmission of
CQIs on the PUSCH cannot be identified promptly. To address this issue, uplink
scheduling in the SCell yields to periodic CQI scheduling. The shorter the CQI period,
the more frequently the yielding occurs and the greater the decrease in the uplink data
rates of CA UEs. Especially when a TDD cell and an FDD cell act as the PCell and

eRAN
SCell respectively, the decrease is so large that uplink scheduling may involve only the
SCell.
l When a TDD carrier is working as the PCC and an FDD carrier is working as an SCC for
a CA UE, the uplink FDD spectral resources are fully utilized, which increases the
uplink data rate. In addition, the FDD SCC provides better uplink coverage for the CA
UE than a TDD carrier does for a non-CA UE.

6.1 When to Use

Enable these features if operators require aggregation of two downlink CCs.
In adaptive configuration mode, the Auto Neighbor Group Configuration feature can be used
for automatic configuration of blind-configurable candidate cells. For details, see Auto
Neighbor Group Configuration Feature Parameter Description.
If these features are activated in high-speed scenarios, inter-band CA with the lower-band
carrier as the PCC is recommended considering the performance of commercial UEs.
6.2 Required Information

Before activating these features, obtain the value of the following counter. After the features
are activated, the value will be used to evaluate the impact of these features on network
resource usage.

6.3 Planning
RF Planning
The coverage areas provided by the cells to be aggregated must overlap. The areas where CA
takes effect are dependent on the overlapping ranges. Ensure that the cell coverage areas meet
the requirements of the scenarios described in 3.1.2 Usage Scenarios.

Network Planning
Ensure that there are at least two frequencies on the live network.
Hardware Planning
l RF modules
To meet the time alignment requirements, use any of the following RF modules for intra-
band CA:
– One dual-carrier RF module
– Two AAUs of the same product model
– Two RRUs of the same product model
– Two RFUs with the same hardware version number
For example, the two RFUs are a combination of MRFU V6 and MRFUd V6. The
hardware version number (such as V1, V2, or V6) can be observed on the RFU
panel.
For the time alignment error requirements, see 3.1.3.1 LAOFD-001001 LTE-A
Introduction.
Inter-band CA has no special requirements for RF modules.
l BBPs
LBBPd and UBBP have larger UE capacities and better processing capabilities than
LBBPc. Use cells on LBBPd and UBBP boards as PCells for UEs. Cells on LBBPc
boards cannot act as PCells.
CA works with either intra-BBP or inter-BBP cells.
– For intra-BBP CA, use a BBP other than LBBPc.
If the eNodeB is equipped with a BBU3900, deploy at least one LTE BBP in slot 2
or 3 of the BBU. An LBBPd or UBBP is recommended to facilitate future capacity
expansion. This requirement does not apply to BBU3910s.
– For inter-BBP CA, use any combination of LBBPc, LBBPd, and UBBP boards,
except a combination of pure LBBPc boards.
If the eNodeB is equipped with a BBU3900, ensure that LBBPd or UBBP boards
are installed in slots 2 and 3 in order to maximize the number of cells where CA can
take effect. This requirement does not apply to BBU3910s.

Evolved l For LAOFD-001001 LTE-A Introduction to reach a peak data rate of

packet core 150 Mbit/s in 2x2 MIMO scenarios, the maximum bit rate that the UE
(EPC) subscribes to in the EPC must be at least 150 Mbit/s.
l For LAOFD-001002 Carrier Aggregation for Downlink 2CC in 40MHz
to reach a peak data rate of 300 Mbit/s in 2x2 MIMO scenarios, the
maximum bit rate that the UE subscribes to in the EPC must be at least
300 Mbit/s.
eNodeB l The eNodeB must support one RLC entity for the entire eNodeB,
independent MAC and HARQ entities for each CC, and communication
between BBPs.
l Section 5.7.1A in 3GPP TR 36.101 requires that the nominal channel
spacing between the center frequencies of two intra-band contiguous
CCs be an integer multiple of 300 kHz.
For example, the nominal channel spacing for two contiguous 20 MHz
CCs is 19.8 MHz, and that for two contiguous CCs with a bandwidth
combination of 20 MHz and 10 MHz is 14.4 MHz. Nominal channel
spacing is calculated as follows:
NOTE
BWChannel(1) and BWChannel(2) are the bandwidths of two carriers.
l RF modules and BBPs must meet the requirements described in
Hardware Planning in 6.3 Planning.
UE UEs must comply with 3GPP Release 10 or later and support the frequency
bands of the carriers to be aggregated and their channel bandwidths. UEs
must also be capable of receiving data transmitted at the peak data rate
supported by CA.
NOTE
As stipulated in 3GPP TS 36.306, CA UEs must report the IE supportedBandCombi-
nation, based on which the eNodeB performs CA.

License
Deploying CA requires the following licenses:

requires one sales unit of the license for LAOFD-001001 LTE-A Introduction.
l If the total bandwidth of the aggregated cells is between 20 MHz and 40 MHz (including
40 MHz), each cell requires one sales unit of the license for LAOFD-001001 LTE-A
Introduction and one sales unit of the license for LAOFD-001002 Carrier Aggregation

for Downlink 2CC in 40MHz. For these features to take effect, the CaDl2CCExtSwitch
option of the CaMgtCfg.CellCaAlgoSwitch parameter must be selected for both the
PCell and the SCell.

l The prerequisite features for these CA features must be enabled.
l Unless the candidate SCells are configured as blind-configurable, the candidate SCells
and the PCell must be inter-frequency neighboring cells.
l Inter-BBP data exchange for CA is bandwidth-consuming. If CA is activated together
with CoMP or SFN, the backplane bandwidth may be insufficient. To prevent this, it is
recommended that intra-frequency cells be configured in the same BBP.
l Cells in band 29 are DL_ONLY cells, which transmit only downlink data. UEs cannot
camp on the cells (in idle mode), access the cells, or be handed over to the cells. These
cells can serve only as SCells for CA UEs. In addition, cells and sector equipment in this
band must be configured as follows:
– Cell.WorkMode is set to DL_ONLY(Downlink only), Cell.FreqBand is set to 29,
and Cell.UlEarfcn is not set. In addition, SECTOREQM.ANTTYPE1 and
SECTOREQM.ANTTYPE2 (if two antennas are configured) are set to
TX_MODE(TX).
– EUTRANINTERNFREQ.AnrInd is set to
NOT_ALLOWED(NOT_ALLOWED) for frequencies in band 29 so that they
will not be managed by ANR. Therefore, for CA to take effect, you must manually
configure cells in band 29 as inter-frequency neighboring cells of intended
candidate PCells.
– EUTRANINTERNFREQ.MlbTargetInd is set to
NOT_ALLOWED(NOT_ALLOWED) for frequencies in band 29 so that they
will not be treated as targets for mobility load balancing (MLB).

NOTE
l Each cell in band 29 can have no more than two transmit channels. It does not support 4T or
8T antenna modes.
l RRUs do not provide uplink resources for cells in band 29. Therefore,
SECTOREQM.AntTypeX (X = 1, 2, 3...8) cannot be set to RX_MODE(RX) or
RXTX_MODE(RX And TX).
l The Cell.WorkMode parameter can be set to DL_ONLY(Downlink only) only for cells in
band 29. If the parameter is set to DL_ONLY(Downlink only) for a cell in another band, the
cell cannot be activated.
l If the Cell.HighSpeedFlag parameter is set to HIGH_SPEED(High speed cell flag),
ULTRA_HIGH_SPEED(Ultra high speed cell flag), or
EXTRA_HIGH_SPEED(Extra high speed cell flag), you are advised to run MOD
CELLALGOSWITCH with the PucchSwitch(PucchSwitch) option of
CellAlgoSwitch.PucchAlgoSwitch selected and run MOD
CELLCQIADAPTIVECFG with CellCqiAdaptiveCfg.CqiPeriodAdaptive set to
OFF(Off) to use a fixed-period PUCCH configuration.
l If a carrier involved in CA is used by multiple frequency bands, the primary and
secondary frequency bands must be configured in the PccFreqCfg or SccFreqCfg MOs.
You are advised to set the parameters consistently for the primary and secondary
frequency bands.
6.4.2 Precautions
l In RAN sharing scenarios, eNodeB ID collisions must be prevented. Otherwise, errors
will occur in SCell configuration because target eNodeBs cannot be identified.
l In any CA group, cells in a pair must have the same cyclic prefix (CP) length: either
normal or extended.
l After CA groups (for CA-group-based configuration) or candidate PCCs and SCCs (for
adaptive configuration) are configured using MML commands, the eNodeB can
configure SCells for CA UEs that subsequently access the network, but not for CA UEs
that have accessed the network before the CA groups or candidate PCCs and SCCs were
configured. SCells can be configured for these UEs only after they have accessed the
network again or are handed over.
l If CaMgtCfg.ActiveBufferLenThd is set to 0, a large amount of radio resources is
consumed regardless of whether SCells have been configured for CA UEs. If an SCell
has been configured for a CA UE, the eNodeB activates the SCell as long as the eNodeB
prepares to send data to the CA UE. However, if the traffic volume of the CA UE is low,
the eNodeB deactivates the SCell (because the deactivation condition is met)
immediately after it activates the SCell for the UE. If no SCell has been configured for
the CA UE, the eNodeB repeatedly attempts to configure an SCell without considering
CaMgtCfg.SccCfgInterval when the eNodeB prepares to send data to the CA UE.
l It is recommended that CaMgtCfg.DeactiveBufferLenThd be less than
CaMgtCfg.ActiveBufferLenThd.
l When CA is enabled, a large number of scheduling request indicators (SRIs) collide with
measurement gaps, delaying the transmission of scheduling requests from CA UEs.
When the number of RLC retransmissions reaches its maximum, the service drop rate,
the number of RRC connection reestablishments, and the number of random access
attempts all increase. To avoid these impacts, you are advised to select the
BasedSriGapOptSwitch option of the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.HoCommOptSwitch
parameter, which resolves the collision.

l For CA-group-based configuration, note the following:

– If the PCell is a higher-frequency cell that covers a relatively small area, you are
advised to enable blind configuration for a lower-frequency cell that covers a
relatively large area. This prevents a CA UE in the higher-frequency cell from
performing an unnecessary inter-frequency measurement of the lower-frequency
cell, which will always meet the triggering condition for event A4.
– If the PCell is a lower-frequency cell that covers a relatively large area, you are
advised to disable blind configuration (that is, use A4 measurements) for a higher-
frequency cell that covers a relatively small area. If blind configuration is enabled, a
CA UE that has accessed the lower-frequency cell will encounter low scheduling
efficiency in the higher-frequency cell. In this case, the data rate of the CA UE will
not reach twice that of a non-CA UE even in differentiated scheduling mode.
– An eNodeB can be configured with no more than 72 CaGroupSCellCfg MOs,
which represent candidate SCells. Ensure that the candidate SCells are included in
the same CA group as the associated PCells. Otherwise, the candidate SCell
configurations will not take effect and will be regarded as invalid. Delete the invalid
CaGroupSCellCfg MOs, which account for part of the MO capacity.
– CA takes effect for a maximum of five inter-frequency cells in a CA group. If intra-
frequency cells are included in a CA group, CA takes effect only for one of these
cells so that the CA-effective cells in the CA group are all inter-frequency cells.
l For adaptive configuration, note the following:
– An LBBPd or UBBP can work with a maximum of 16 other LBBPs or UBBPs for
CA. An LBBPc can work with a maximum of 3 other LBBPs or UBBPs for CA.
– This configuration mode uses intra- or inter-eNodeB dynamic routing, which causes
certain delay in SCell configuration. In addition, this mode causes overheads on the
radio interface because inter-frequency measurements are required for an eNodeB
to select candidate SCells.
– A static route is set up when a CaGroupSCellCfg MO is configured. This prevents
delays caused by dynamic routing during CA. A maximum of eight routes,
including static and dynamic routes, can be set up for a cell. To prevent excessive
configurations, which waste inter-board routing bandwidth, it is recommended that
one static route be configured for each cell in adaptive configuration mode.
Currently, there is no check on the destination cell status of a route when the route
is set up.
– The CaGroupSCellCfg.SCellPriority parameter setting does not take effect in
adaptive configuration mode. Carrier priorities are still specified by the
SccFreqCfg.SccPriority parameter.
– In adaptive configuration mode, the CaGroupSCellCfg.SCellBlindCfgFlag
parameter setting takes effect regardless of the SccBlindCfgSwitch setting under
the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter. Blind SCell configuration for
adaptive CA works so long as the CaGroupSCellCfg.SCellBlindCfgFlag
parameter is set to TRUE(TRUE).
l Routes can be set up between one PCell and a maximum of eight other cells for CA.
Routes cannot be set up between cells in a hotspot coverage area when the number of
already established inter-cell routes has reached the maximum. In this situation, select
the Dl2CCAckResShareSw option of the CellAlgoSwitch.PucchAlgoSwitch parameter
to enable PUCCH ACK channel resource sharing for downlink 2CC aggregation so that
up to 24 routes, including static and dynamic routes, can be set up for each cell. With this
option selected, the number of UEs for which carriers are aggregated increases on the
network, but traffic statistics will indicate a decrease in throughput.

These routes consume the backplane bandwidth of each eNodeB, which is shared by all
features. The routes will fail to be set up if the backplane bandwidth is insufficient. If
three consecutive attempts to set up a route to a single cell fail because of insufficient
backplane bandwidth, the eNodeB prohibits the subsequent 30 attempts on the route to
this cell.
l An eNodeB may configure an SCell for a CA UE in a blind manner when the UE is
located in a weak coverage area or experiences strong interference. As a result, the CQI
for the SCell will be low. This causes a decrease in the cell throughput and an increase in
the number of RRC connection reestablishments, uplink and downlink IBLER values,
the packet loss rate, and the service drop rate. To avoid these impacts, you are advised to
enable channel-quality-triggered SCell deactivation.
l The PCell and SCells of each CA UE may not have the same channel quality. Therefore,
the CQIs for the entire network vary slightly after SCells are configured for CA UEs.
The CQI variation leads to fluctuations in cell throughput, the number of RRC
connection reestablishments, uplink and downlink IBLER values, the packet loss rate,
and the service drop rate.
l To prevent the impacts of gap-assisted-measurement periods on SRs in CA, you are
advised to select the BasedSriGapOptSwitch and DrxBasedSriGapOptSwitch options
of the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.HoCommOptSwitch parameter.
l When 2CCDlCaEnhanceSwitch under the CaMgtCfg.CellCaAlgoSwitch parameter is
on, the eNodeB configures PUCCH format 3 for CA UEs that support PUCCH format 3
in downlink 2CC aggregation. The eNodeB allocates two RBs to PUCCH format 3 for
cells with a bandwidth of 10 MHz or higher and one RB to PUCCH format 3 for cells
with a bandwidth of 5 MHz or lower.
l Note the following compatibility issues:
– When blind SCell configuration is disabled, it is recommended that the
CaGapMeasPriOffSwitch option of the
GlobalProcSwitch.ProtocolCompatibilitySw parameter be selected to minimize the
probability of power shortage at Samsung Galaxy S4.
– When a network uses equipment from different vendors, it is recommended that
CaHoReqWithR9ConfigSwitch under the
GlobalProcSwitch.ProtocolCompatibilitySw parameter be on to prevent CA-
related IE resolution failure caused by protocol release inconsistency.
– It is recommended that the ApCqiRptAbnormalCtrlSwitch option of the
ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CompatibilityCtrlSwitch parameter be selected to mitigate the
problems caused by failures of UEs to report aperiodic CQIs.
– In accordance with section 9.1.1 "PDCCH Assignment Procedure" in 3GPP TS
36.213 V10.9.0, PdcchOverlapSrchSpcSwitch under the
ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter is used to control whether CA UEs
regard the overlapping PDCCH candidates of the common search space and UE-
specific search space, which are transmitted in the PCell, as PDCCH candidates of
the common or UE-specific search space. It is recommended that the
PdcchOverlapSrchSpcSwitch option be selected if most CA UEs on the network
comply with 3GPP TS 36.213 V10.9.0 or later specifications.
NOTE
If a large number of RRC connection reconfiguration failures occur on a network, it is an

indication that most CA UEs on the network do not comply with 3GPP TS 36.213 V10.9.0
or later specifications.
– CA does not work on some UEs due to their software or hardware defects. To
prevent this UE incompatibility issue from affecting network performance, enable

LBFD-081103 Terminal Awareness Differentiation with CA disabled for these UEs.

eNodeBs will not perform PCC anchoring or SCell configuration for the UEs. For
details about how to set parameters for identifying defective UEs and defining
differentiated handling policies, see Terminal Awareness Differentiation Feature
– Single Radio LTE (SRLTE) or Simultaneous LTE (SLTE) UEs using CA on an LTE
network periodically check for signals from an inter-RAT system. During the check,
the UEs do not receive signals from their SCells, causing sharp block error rate
(BLER) increases in the SCells and then SCell deactivation. Consequently, the
throughput of the UEs decreases. To prevent this, you are advised to set the
CellSrlte.SrlteSwitch parameter to ON(On) and set the CaMgtCfg.SccQuietTime
parameter to a proper value so that block errors will not trigger SCell deactivation
within the SCC unavailability duration.
6.4.3 Hardware Adjustment

When an eNodeB is restarted, all served cells are reactivated and may be randomly distributed
on BBPs. Inter-frequency cells for CA may all be reestablished on LBBPc boards. If this
happens, CA will not work between these cells. To prevent this, you are advised to use a fixed
mapping between cells and slots. The procedure is as follows:
1. Run the LST EUCELLSECTOREQM command on a macro eNodeB or the LST
EUSECTOREQMGROUP command on a LampSite eNodeB to check the existing
mapping configuration. If the baseband equipment ID is in the range of 0 to 23 in the
command output, the specified cell has been mapped to the specified baseband
equipment. If the ID is 255, the cell has not been mapped to any baseband equipment,
and you can go to the next step.
2. Run the ADD BASEBANDEQM command to add baseband equipment. Ensure that the
baseband equipment ID does not collide with any existing baseband equipment ID.
3. Run the MOD EUCELLSECTOREQM command on the macro eNodeB or the MOD
EUSECTOREQMGROUP command on the LampSite eNodeB to map the cell to the
new baseband equipment. After that, the cell will be reestablished. Then, the mapping
takes effect.

function of the CME. For detailed operations, see the following section in the CME
product documentation or online help: CME Management > CME Guidelines >
Enhanced Feature Management > Feature Operation and Maintenance.
l Single/batch configuration

This feature can be activated for a single eNodeB or a batch of eNodeBs on the CME.
For detailed operations, see CME-based Feature Configuration.
6.4.4.3 Using MML Commands
Step 1 Run the MOD ENODEBALGOSWITCH command to set the switches under CA
Algorithm Switch based on the network plan. Ensure that FreqCfgSwitch and
AdpCaSwitch are off. For the setting notes, see 6.4.4.1 Data Preparation and 6.6
Parameter Optimization.
Step 2 Run the ADD CAGROUP command to add a CA group on the eNodeB and set the CA group
attribute. In this step, set the CA Group Type Indication parameter to FDD(FDD) for FDD-
only CA and to FDDTDD(FDDTDD) for FDD+TDD CA.
Step 3 Run the ADD CAGROUPCELL command repeatedly to add at least two cells to the CA
group. In this step, set the PCell priority and the threshold parameter PCell A4 RSRP
Threshold or PCell A4 RSRQ Threshold for each cell. You can set either identical or
different parameter values for the cells.
Step 4 (Optional. If you skip this step, the default parameter settings will be used.) Run the ADD
CAGROUPSCELLCFG command to configure, based on the network plan, a candidate
SCell for a cell that will act as the PCell. In this step, set the SCell priority, blind SCell
configuration flag, threshold for event A4, and threshold for event A2 for the candidate SCell.
You can set either identical or different parameter values for the cells. For the setting notes,
see 6.6 Parameter Optimization.
Step 5 Run the ACT CELL command to activate any cells that have not yet been activated.
----End
Step 1 Run the MOD ENODEBALGOSWITCH command to set the switches under CA
Algorithm Switch based on the network plan. Ensure that FreqCfgSwitch and
AdpCaSwitch are both on. For the setting notes, see 6.4.4.1 Data Preparation and 6.6
Parameter Optimization.
Step 2 Run the ADD PCCFREQCFG command to add candidate PCCs and set their attributes. You
can set either identical or different parameter values for the CCs.
Step 3 Run the ADD SCCFREQCFG command to add at least one candidate SCC and set its
attributes for each candidate PCC. You can set either identical or different parameter values
for the CCs.
Step 4 Run the ADD CAGROUPSCELLCFG command to configure a cell on a candidate SCC as
a candidate SCell for a cell (acting as a PCell) on a candidate PCC. In this step, set the SCell
Blind Configuration Flag parameter to TRUE(TRUE). You can repeat this step to set one
blind-configurable candidate SCell for one cell on each candidate PCC.
Step 5 (Optional, depending on the aggregated bandwidth) If the total bandwidth of two cells to be
aggregated exceeds 20 MHz, run the MOD CAMGTCFG command with the
CaDl2CCExtSwitch(CaDl2CCExtSwitch) option of the Cell Level CA Algorithm Switch
parameter selected for each of the cells.

Step 6 (Recommended) Run the MOD ENODEBALGOSWITCH command with the

FreqBaseCaLicAlarmSwitch(FreqBaseCaLicAlarmSwitch) option of the CA Algorithm
Extend Switch parameter selected to enable license alarm reporting.
Step 7 Run the ACT CELL command to activate any cells that have not yet been activated.
----End
NOTE
If an upgrade from an earlier version to eRAN11.1 retains frequency-based configuration as the CA

configuration mode, AdpCaSwitch does not need to be set on in step 1, and step 4 is not required.
If the FreqBaseCaLicAlarmSwitch(FreqBaseCaLicAlarmSwitch) option is selected, as described in
step 6, CA-related license alarms will be reported when licensed resources are insufficient. If this option
is deselected, the alarms are not reported even when configured values exceed licensed values.

6.4.5 Activation Observation
Counter
After CA is enabled, the eNodeB configures SCells for CA UEs when the required conditions
are met. Observe the counters listed in the following table to obtain PCell and SCell statistics.
If the L.Traffic.User.SCell.DL.Avg and L.ChMeas.PRB.DL.SCell.Used.Avg counters
produce non-zero values, the CA feature has been activated successfully. If the values of both
counters are persistently zero and there are CA UEs on the network, the CA feature has not
been activated.

Message Tracing
After a CA UE accesses a cell, the eNodeB configures a cell that meets CA conditions as an
SCell for the UE. When traffic conditions are met, the eNodeB activates this SCell. The
U2000 client may be used or a drive test (for example, using Probe) may be conducted to
observe configuration and activation of this SCell. If an RRC_CONN_RECFG message for
configuring an SCell is observed on a network that serves CA UEs, CA has been activated
successfully.
Observing SCell Configuration on the U2000 Client
Step 1 Log in to the U2000 client, and then choose Monitor > Signaling Trace > Signaling Trace
Management. In the navigation tree on the left of the Signaling Trace Management tab
page, choose Trace Type > LTE > Application Layer > Uu Interface Trace.
Step 2 Select an NE, set tracing task parameters, and then click Finish to start signaling tracing.
Step 3 Check the tracing results for the RRC_CONN_RECFG message. The eNodeB configures or
removes an SCell for the CA UE by using an RRC_CONN_RECFG message that contains the
IE sCellToAddModList or sCellToReleaseList, as shown in Figure 6-1 or Figure 6-2,
respectively.

Common Parameters
This section describes the parameters that are common to both CA configuration modes.
to specify the CA algorithm switch settings.

Parameter Parameter ID Setting Notes

Name
CA ENodeBAlgoSwitc l EnhancedPccAnchorSwitch
Algorithm h.CaAlgoSwitch If this switch is on and a CA UE accesses a cell
Switch with a smaller value of the PreferredPCellPrior-
ity or PreferredPccPriority parameter, the
eNodeB attempts to select a PCell with a larger
value of this priority parameter for the CA UE
when the entering condition for event A1 is met,
thereby increasing the number of inter-frequency
handovers. Turning off this switch has no impact
on network performance. If the coverage
direction of a candidate cell with a higher PCell
priority or a candidate cell on a carrier with a
higher PCC priority is different from that of the
current serving cell, the eNodeB may fail to hand
over the UE to the candidate cell.
l PccAnchorSwitch
Select this option only if you intend to use PCC
anchoring.
You are advised to select the
EnhancedPccAnchorSwitch option instead of
the PccAnchorSwitch option to enable PCC
anchoring.
l SccBlindCfgSwitch
Select this option only if you intend to use blind
SCell configuration for CA-group-based CA.
l SccA2RmvSwitch
Select this option only if you intend to allow the
eNodeB to deliver the A2 measurement
configuration for SCells that have been
configured based on A4 measurements.
l HoWithSccCfgSwitch
Select this option if you intend to allow the
eNodeB to configure SCells for CA UEs during
their handovers. Do not select this option if you
intend to have SCells removed after the CA UEs
are handed over.
l SccModA6Switch
– In adaptive configuration mode, you are
advised to select this option only if you intend
to have SCells changed to better intra-
frequency neighboring cells. If this option is
not selected, the eNodeB does not support
SCell changes based on event A6.
– In CA-group-based configuration mode, this
option does not take effect. You are not
advised to select this option.
l CaHoControlSwitch


Name
Select this option if you intend to prohibit

unnecessary intra-RAT handovers of CA UEs to
non-macro cells (excluding those served by
BTS3911Es and by BTS3912Es) to reduce the
number of handover candidate cells for CA UEs
and increase the CA UE throughput. Deselect this
option if you allow CA UEs to be handed over to
non-macro cells during unnecessary intra-RAT
handovers. This switch applies only when an X2
interface has been configured between the source
and target eNodeBs.
l PccSmartCfgSwitch
This option specifies whether to enable load-
based PCC anchoring. Select this option only if
you intend to allow the eNodeB to consider the
load status of candidate cells during PCell
configuration.
NOTE
Before you select this option, select the
PccAnchorSwitch or EnhancedPccAnchorSwitch
option of the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch
parameter.
l SccSmartCfgSwitch
This option specifies whether to enable load-
based SCC selection. Select this option only if
you intend to allow the eNodeB to consider the
load status of candidate cells during SCell
configuration.
l IdleModePccAnchorSwitch
This option specifies whether to enable PCC
anchoring for UEs in idle mode. Select this option
only if you intend to use PCC anchoring for UEs
in idle mode.
l CaAdpPreSchSwitch
Select this option only if you intend to use
adaptive preallocation to increase the single-CA-
UE throughput in inter-eNodeB CA based on
relaxed backhaul or inter-eNodeB CA in the
distributed eNodeB coordination scenario. The
default state of this option has been changed to on
since eRAN12.1.
l CaPreSchSwitch
For intra-eNodeB inter-BBP CA or inter-eNodeB
CA based on centralized eNodeB coordination,
select this option only if you intend to decrease
the CA-required transmission bandwidth and
thereby to allow more cells to participate in CA.


Name
However, selecting this option decreases the

single-CA-UE throughput in these scenarios.
The setting of this switch must be the same on all
coordinated eNodeBs.
l RelaxedBHCaArqSelectSwitch
Select this option only if you intend to enable
ARQ selection in relaxed-backhaul-based CA to
increase the single-CA-UE throughput.
l CaRlcPreAllocSwitch
Select this option only if you intend to solve the
problem of UE throughput decreases caused by
RLC send window suspending in relaxed-
backhaul-based inter-eNodeB CA. When this
option is selected, the eNodeB uses the
preallocation algorithm for data diversion at the
RLC layer. The default state of this option has
been changed to on since eRAN12.1.
l MtaAlgSwitch
This option specifies whether to enable MTA in
uplink CA scenarios. You are advised to select
this option only if you intend to use multiple
TAGs for timing in uplink CA scenarios.
CA ENodeBAlgoSwitc l The FTMtaAlgSwitch option specifies whether

Algorithm h.CaAlgoExTSwitc to allow MTA in uplink FDD+TDD CA
Extend h scenarios. You are advised to select this option
Switch only if you intend to use multiple TAGs for
timing in uplink CA scenarios.
l The SmartCaFastSccCfgSwitch option specifies
whether to try blind SCell configuration before
intelligent selection of serving cell combinations
starts. You are advised to select this option if you
intend to accelerate the process of entering CA
for UEs.
l The CaAnrGapOptSwitch option specifies
whether to instruct UEs to perform inter-
frequency measurements on candidate SCCs
where no neighboring cells have been configured.
The following table describes the parameters that must be set in the GlobalProcSwitch MO
to configure the protocol compatibility switch.

select this option only if there are a large number
of Samsung Galaxy S4 UEs on the network where
CA works in CA-group-based configuration mode
with blind SCell configuration disabled.
l CaHoReqWithR9ConfigSwitch: You are
advised to select this option only if the network
equipment is provided by different vendors.
The following table describes the parameters that must be set in the CellDlschAlgo MO to
specify downlink scheduling settings for a cell.

Name
Downlink CellDLSchAlgo.Ca This parameter specifies the scheduling policy for

CA SchStrategy CA UEs.
Schedule If CA UEs are treated as VIP users, set this parameter
Strategy to DIFF_SCHEDULE(differentiation schedule).
Otherwise, set this parameter to
BASIC_SCHEDULE(Basic Schedule).
The scheduling method must be consistent between
serving cells to prevent data transmission exceptions.
Ca Scc CellDLSchAlgo.Ca This parameter specifies the method for measuring

Doppler SccDopMeas the Doppler frequency offset that is applied to
Measureme frequency-selective scheduling in SCells. To use
nt frequency-selective scheduling in SCells, set this
parameter to FROMPCC(FROMPCC). Otherwise,
set this parameter to FROMSCC(FROMSCC).
CA CellDlschAlgo.CaS This parameter specifies the differentiated scheduling

Scheduling chWeight factor for CA UEs. A larger parameter value results
Weight in more scheduling differentiation between CA UEs
Factor and non-CA UEs. A smaller parameter value results
in fairer scheduling.
The following table describes the parameters that must be set in the ENodeBFrameOffset
MO to configure the eNodeB-specific frame offset.


Name
FDD Frame ENodeBFrameOffs This parameter specifies the offset of the frame start
Offset et.FddFrameOffset time for all LTE FDD cells served by the eNodeB
relative to the time of the reference clock.
FDD CA and FDD+TDD CA require time
synchronization between the cells involved. An
identical frame offset must be set for all the cells.
Otherwise, FDD CA or FDD+TDD CA does not
work.
Set this parameter based on the network plan.
TDD ENodeBFrameOffs This parameter specifies the offset of the frame start
Frame et.TddFrameOffset time for all LTE TDD cells served by the eNodeB
Offset relative to the time of the reference clock.
If uplink and downlink timeslots are not aligned
between TDD systems, inter-system interference may
occur. You can adjust this parameter to minimize the
error in timeslot alignment between the TDD
systems.
The following table describes the parameters that must be set in the CellFrameOffset MO to
configure the cell-specific frame offset.

Name
Local Cell CellFrameOffset.L This parameter specifies the local ID of a cell. It

ID ocalCellId uniquely identifies a cell served by an eNodeB.


Name
Frame CellFrameOffset.F This parameter specifies the type of the frame offset
Offset rameOffsetMode for the cell. There are three options:
Mode l CustomFrameOffset(User-defined Frame
Offset): indicates a user-defined frame offset.
This is the only value of this parameter that
applies to FDD cells.
l TL_FrameOffset(T-L Dual Mode frame offset):
indicates the frame offset automatically
determined based on the subframe configuration
in a TD-SCDMA + LTE TDD dual-RAT network.
l TL_FrameOffset_SA2_SSP5(T-L Dual Mode
SA2+SSP5 frame offset): indicates the frame
offset automatically determined based on uplink-
downlink configuration 2 and special subframe
configuration 5 in a TD-SCDMA + LTE TDD
dual-RAT network.
Frame CellFrameOffset.F This parameter specifies the offset of the frame start
Offset rameOffset time for the cell relative to the time of the reference
clock.
The following table describes the parameters that must be set in the CaMgtCfg MO to
configure carrier management.


Name
Cell Level CaMgtCfg.CellCaA The CaInstantlyJudgeSwitch option of this

CA lgoSwitch parameter specifies whether to use instantaneous
Algorithm millisecond-level traffic volume values or filtered
Switch second-level traffic volume values to evaluate SCell
activation.
Select this option if you intend to enable the eNodeB
to activate SCells more quickly for small-packet
services such as web browsing and small-size file
transmission. If this option is selected, the eNodeB
uses instantaneous millisecond-level traffic volume
values to evaluate SCell activation. Deselect this
option if you intend to allow the eNodeB to activate
SCells for a CA UE typically when the UE is
downloading large-size files. If this option is
deselected, the eNodeB uses filtered second-level
traffic volume values to evaluate SCell activation.
After this option is selected, the proportion of UEs in
the CA state may rise drastically, resulting in
fluctuations in KPIs such as downlink IBLER and
RBLER.
The 2CCDlCaEnhanceSwitch option of this

parameter specifies whether to configure PUCCH
format 3 for CA UEs in downlink 2CC aggregation.
When this option is selected, the eNodeB configures
PUCCH format 3 for CA UEs that support PUCCH
format 3 in downlink 2CC aggregation.
The RcvA2CfgSccSwitch option of this parameter

specifies whether to allow SCell configuration after
the serving eNodeB of the PCell receives handover-
related event A2 reports from a CA UE. SCell
configuration is allowed in this situation only if this
switch is on.
Select the VolteSupportCaInterFreqMeasSw

option if operators require gap-assisted inter-
frequency measurements before SCells can be
configured for UEs with concurrent VoLTE and data
services.


Name
Carrier CaMgtCfg.CarrAg This parameter specifies the RSRP threshold used by

Aggregatio grA2ThdRsrp a UE to determine whether to report event A2 for
n A2 RSRP removing an SCell.
threshold l The greater the value, the higher the probability
of removing the SCell.
l The smaller the value, the lower the probability of
removing the SCell.
Set this parameter to a large value if you intend to
apply CA to UEs that are not located at the cell edge.
Carrier CaMgtCfg.CarrAg This parameter specifies the RSRP threshold used by

Aggregatio grA4ThdRsrp a UE to determine whether to report event A4 for
n A4 RSRP configuring an SCell.
threshold l The greater the value, the lower the probability of
configuring the SCell.
l The smaller the value, the higher the probability
of configuring the SCell.
Set this parameter to a large value if you intend to
apply CA to UEs that are not located at the cell edge.
The value of this parameter must be greater than that
of CaMgtCfg.CarrAggrA2ThdRsrp.
Carrier CaMgtCfg.Carrier This parameter specifies the carrier management

Managemen MgtSwitch switch. If this parameter is set to ON(On), the
t Switch eNodeB deactivates an SCell for a CA UE when the
traffic volume of the UE is low or the channel quality
of the SCell is unsatisfactory. If this parameter is set
to OFF(Off), the eNodeB does not deactivate the
SCell until a radio link failure occurs in the SCell.
CA Active CaMgtCfg.ActiveB This parameter specifies the buffer delay threshold

Buffer ufferDelayThd used to evaluate the activation of an SCell.
Delay l The greater the value, the lower the probability of
Threshold activating the SCell.

the value of this parameter.


Name
CA Active CaMgtCfg.ActiveB This parameter specifies the buffer length threshold

Buffer ufferLenThd used to evaluate the activation of an SCell.
Length l The greater the value, the lower the probability of
Threshold activating the SCell.
of activating the SCell.
To raise the probability of SCell activation, reduce
NOTE
You are not advised to set this parameter to 0. If it is set to
0, the eNodeB activates a configured SCell as long as the
eNodeB intends to send data to the CA UE.
CA CaMgtCfg.Deactiv This parameter specifies the data rate threshold used

Deactive eThroughputThd to evaluate the deactivation of an SCell.
Throughput l The higher the threshold, the higher the
Threshold probability of deactivating the SCell.
l The lower the threshold, the lower the probability
of deactivating the SCell.
To raise the probability of SCell deactivation,
increase the value of this parameter.
CA CaMgtCfg.Deactiv This parameter specifies the buffer length threshold

Deactive eBufferLenThd used to evaluate the deactivation of an SCell.
Buffer l The higher the threshold, the higher the
Length probability of deactivating the SCell.
Threshold
To raise the probability of SCell deactivation,
SCC CaMgtCfg.SccDea This parameter specifies the CQI threshold used to

Deactive ctCqiThd evaluate the deactivation of an SCell for a CA UE
CQI based on channel quality. If the channel quality of the
Threshold CA UE is lower than the channel quality
corresponding to the CQI threshold in single-
codeword transmission, the eNodeB deactivates the
SCell. If this parameter is set to 0, the eNodeB does
not deactivate SCells based on channel quality. The
value 5 is recommended.
l The higher the threshold, the higher the
probability of deactivating the SCell.
To maintain active SCells only when channel quality
is high, increase the value of this parameter.


Name
SCC CaMgtCfg.SccCfgI This parameter specifies the minimum interval after

Configurati nterval which the eNodeB attempts to configure an SCell
on Interval again for a CA UE whose SCell failed to be
configured. The eNodeB makes the attempt only if
the traffic volume of the UE always meets the SCell
activation condition throughout a period.
l A smaller value results in more frequent SCell
configurations and more RRC Connection
Reconfiguration messages transmitted to
configure SCells. In addition, it leads to a greater
decrease in cell throughput if the eNodeB
configures SCells based on A4 measurements and
the UE requires inter-frequency measurement
gaps.
l A larger value results in less frequent SCell
configurations and fewer RRC Connection
Reconfiguration messages transmitted to
configure SCells. In addition, it leads to a smaller
decrease in cell throughput if the eNodeB
configures SCells based on A4 measurements and
the UE requires inter-frequency measurement
gaps.
To accelerate SCell configuration, reduce the value
of this parameter.
Carrier CaMgtCfg.CarrAg This parameter specifies the offset for CA event A6,
Aggregatio grA6Offset which is triggered when the signal quality of a
n A6 Offset neighboring cell is higher than that of an SCell.
l The greater the value, the lower the probability of
changing the SCell based on event A6.
of changing the SCell based on event A6.
To raise the signal quality requirement for SCell
changes, increase the value of this parameter.


Name
CA A6 CaMgtCfg.CaA6Re This parameter specifies the number of periodic

Report portAmount measurement reports sent after CA event A6 is
Amount triggered.
l The greater the value, the higher the UE power
consumption. However, if this parameter is set to
a large value, the eNodeB can monitor the radio
signal condition of the SCell's intra-frequency
neighboring cells. When the signal quality in the
SCell is poor, the eNodeB can change the SCell
in a timely manner to prevent a decrease in the
SCell transmission efficiency.
l The smaller the value, the lower the UE power
consumption. However, if this parameter is set to
a small value, the eNodeB may not know the
radio signal condition of the SCell's intra-
frequency neighboring cells. When the signal
quality in the SCell is poor, the eNodeB may not
change the SCell in a timely manner, which in
turn lowers the SCell transmission efficiency.
To raise the probability of changing the SCell,
CA A6 CaMgtCfg.CaA6Re This parameter specifies the interval between

Report portInterval periodic measurement reports that are sent after CA
Interval event A6 is triggered.
l The greater the value is, the less frequently the
UE sends A6 measurement reports, and the lower
the UE power consumption is. However, if this
parameter is set to a large value, the eNodeB may
not know the radio signal condition of the SCell's
intra-frequency neighboring cells. When the
signal quality in the SCell is poor, the eNodeB
may not change the SCell in a timely manner, so
the SCell transmission efficiency decreases.
l The smaller the value is, the more frequently the
UE sends A6 measurement reports, and the
higher the UE power consumption is. However, if
this parameter is set to a small value, the eNodeB
can monitor the radio signal condition of the
SCell's intra-frequency neighboring cells. When
the signal quality in the SCell is poor, the eNodeB
can change the SCell in a timely manner to
prevent a decrease in the SCell transmission
efficiency.
To accelerate SCell changes for CA UEs whose
PCell remains unchanged, reduce the value of this
parameter.


Name
Cell CaMgtCfg.CellMa This parameter specifies the maximum permissible

Maximum xPccNumber number of UEs that treat the cell as their PCell. If the
PCC number of UEs that treat the cell as their PCell has
Number reached the value of this parameter, the eNodeB
prohibits SCell configuration for any other UEs in
the cell.
l If this parameter is set to a larger value, more
UEs are allowed to treat the cell as their PCell.
l If this parameter is set to a smaller value, fewer
UEs are allowed to treat the cell as their PCell. If
this parameter is set to 0, no UEs are allowed to
treat the cell as their PCell, but UEs can treat the
cell as their SCell. If the sum of the values of this
parameter for all cells on a board exceeds the
board capacity, the number of UEs that can treat a
cell as their PCell is preferentially subject to the
board capacity.
To allow more UEs to treat a cell as their PCell,
increase the value of this parameter for the cell. To
allow fewer UEs to treat a cell as their PCell,
decrease the value of this parameter for the cell.
CA user CaMgtCfg.CaAmbr This parameter specifies the AMBR threshold used

AMBR Thd for the evaluation of CA for UEs. CA is allowed for
Threshold CA UEs whose AMBR exceeds this threshold.
l A larger value of this parameter results in a
smaller number of UEs for which CA is allowed.
l A smaller value of this parameter results in a
larger number of UEs for which CA is allowed.
To allow CA for more UEs, decrease the value of
this parameter. To allow CA for fewer UEs, increase


Name
Relaxed CaMgtCfg.Relaxed This parameter specifies the CQI threshold used to

Backhaul BHSccDeactCqiTh evaluate the channel quality for SCell deactivation
SCC d during relaxed-backhaul-based CA. When the
Deactive channel quality for a CA UE is worse than that
CQI indicated by this threshold in single-codeword
Threshold transmission, the eNodeB deactivates an SCell for
the UE. If this parameter is set to 0, the eNodeB does
not deactivate SCells based on channel quality. It is
recommended that this parameter be set to 5.
l The higher the threshold, the higher the
probability of deactivating the SCell.
To maintain active SCells only when channel quality
is high, increase the value of this parameter.
Measureme CaMgtCfg.MeasCy This parameter specifies the sampling period of the

nt Cycle of cleSCell radio resource measurement on the SCell by the CA
SCell UE when the SCell is deactivated. If this parameter
is set to NOT_CFG, the measurement configuration
message that the eNodeB sends to the CA UE does
not contain the IE measCycleSCell.
l A smaller value of this parameter indicates a
shorter sampling period. It causes the CA UE to
measure the radio resources of the SCell more
frequently. However, this also increases the UE
power consumption.
l A larger value of this parameter indicates a longer
sampling period. It causes the CA UE to measure
the radio resources of the SCell less frequently.
However, this decreases the UE power
consumption.
l If this parameter is set to NOT_CFG and no
compatibility protection is applied to the CA UE,
the UE behavior is unpredictable when the
eNodeB configures frequencies to measure for
the CA UE.


Name
Anchor CaMgtCfg.FTCAM This parameter specifies whether an eNodeB

Policy for ultiCCAnchorPoli- preferentially selects FDD or TDD carriers for PCC
FDD and cy anchoring in aggregation of three or more FDD and
TDD Multi TDD carriers.
CC l To prioritize FDD carriers, set this parameter to
FDD(FDD).
l To prioritize TDD carriers, set this parameter to
TDD(TDD).
l Set this parameter to NULL(NULL) if there is no
duplex mode preference in PCC anchoring.

FDD and anchoring in FDD+TDD 2CC aggregation.
TDD 2CC l To prioritize FDD carriers, set this parameter to
FDD(FDD).
l To prioritize TDD carriers, set this parameter to
TDD(TDD).
l Set this parameter to NULL(NULL) if there is no
duplex mode preference in PCC anchoring.
A1 RSRP CaMgtCfg.Enhanc This parameter specifies the RSRP threshold for

Threshold edSccSelA1ThldRsr event A1 used in enhanced SCell selection. If the
for p measured RSRP value exceeds this threshold, an
Enhanced event A1 report will be sent.
SCC The smaller the value of this parameter, the higher
Selection the probability of triggering inter-frequency
measurements of high-priority SCells. The larger the
value, the lower the probability.
It is recommended that this parameter be used in
multi-band same-coverage scenarios and that this A1
threshold be lower than the A1 threshold for PCC
anchoring.
The value -40 indicates that enhanced SCell selection
is disabled.
Fast SCell CaMgtCfg.FastSce This parameter specifies whether to initiate SCell

Selection llSelAftScellRmvSw configuration immediately after all SCells of a CA
After SCell UE are removed based on coverage conditions. An
Removal SCell configuration procedure is triggered only if

6.7 Possible Issues

Alarms
(1) Carrier or Cell Unavailable
Alarm ID Alarm Name NE
ALM-26200 Board Hardware Fault eNodeB
ALM-29240 Cell Unavailable eNodeB
If an alarm listed in the preceding table is reported as indicating a hardware fault or cell
unavailability, the eNodeB performs the following fallback operations:
l If the faulty cell has been configured as an SCell of a CA UE, the eNodeB sends an RRC
Connection Reconfiguration message to remove the SCell for the UE. If the faulty cell
has not been configured as an SCell of any CA UE, the eNodeB does not send an RRC
Connection Reconfiguration message to configure the cell as an SCell for any CA UE.
l If the faulty cell is the PCell of a CA UE, the CA UE may encounter service drops or
service unavailability.
(2) Clock Synchronization Capability Degraded
Alarm ID Alarm Name NE
ALM-26262 External Clock Reference eNodeB

Problem

If the clock synchronization capability deteriorates because of a clock or hardware fault, the
eNodeB reports the alarm listed in the preceding table, and the following impact is generated:
l SCells cannot be configured for CA UEs that access the faulty eNodeB in scenarios of
initial access, handovers, or RRC connection reestablishments.
l Other eNodeBs cannot configure cells in the faulty eNodeB as SCells.
l SCells are removed for the CA UEs that treat cells served by the faulty eNodeB as their
PCells or SCells.
Handle the alarm according to the alarm reference. If the fault is rectified, CA services are
restored as follows:
l SCells can be configured for CA UEs that access the eNodeB in scenarios of initial
access, handovers, or RRC connection reestablishments.
l Functioning eNodeBs can configure cells in the originally faulty eNodeB as SCells.
Fault Description
After CA is enabled, the CA-related counters provided in 6.5 Performance Monitoring
retain the value of zero.
Fault Handling
If CA is working in CA-group-based configuration mode, perform the following steps on the
U2000 client:
Step 1 Run the LST ENODEBALGOSWITCH command to check whether FreqCfgSwitch under
CA Algorithm Switch is off.
l If the switch is off, go to Step 3.
l If the switch is on, go to Step 2.
Step 2 Run the MOD ENODEBALGOSWITCH command with the
FreqCfgSwitch(FreqCfgSwitch) option of the CA Algorithm Switch parameter deselected.
Then, check whether the CA-related counters provided in 6.5 Performance Monitoring
produce non-zero values.
l If the counters produce non-zero values, no further action is required.
l If the counters retain the value of 0, go to Step 3.
Step 3 Check whether ALM-26200 Board Hardware Fault or ALM-29240 Cell Unavailable is
reported.
l If an alarm is reported, handle the alarm and then check whether the CA-related counters
provided in 6.5 Performance Monitoring produce non-zero values. If the counters
produce non-zero values, no further action is required. If the counters retain the value of
0, go to Step 4.
l If neither alarm is reported, go to Step 4.
Step 4 Run the DSP CAGROUPCELL command to check the running status of all CA groups
configured on the eNodeB. The running status includes information such as whether the link
between cells in one CA group is normal, whether related licenses work normally, and
whether the CA configuration state is normal.
l If the running status is normal, go to Step 5.
l If any status is abnormal, rectify the fault. Then, check whether the CA-related counters

0, go to Step 5.
Step 5 Run the LST CAGROUPSCELLCFG command to check whether candidate SCells are
correctly configured in the eNodeB.
l If the configurations are correct, go to Step 6.
l If they are incorrectly configured, correct the configurations by following the
instructions described in 6.4 Deployment. Then, check whether the CA-related counters
0, go to Step 6.
Step 6 If CA-related hardware and data configurations are correct, check whether the fault is due to
no UE access to the network.
1. Start a Uu interface tracing task as follows:
a. Choose Monitor > Signaling Trace > Signaling Trace Management.
b. In the navigation tree on the left of the Signaling Trace Management tab page,
choose Trace Type > LTE > Application Layer > Uu Interface Trace.
c. Select an NE, set tracing task parameters, and then click Finish to start signaling
tracing.
2. Run the MOD ENODEBALGOSWITCH command with the
SccBlindCfgSwitch(SccBlindCfgSwitch) option of the CA Algorithm Switch
parameter selected, and run the ADD CAGROUPSCELLCFG command with SCell
Blind Configuration Flag set to TRUE(TRUE) for all candidate SCells associated with
the PCell. Enable a CA UE to access the network. Check the Uu interface tracing results
for an RRC_CONN_RECFG message.
– If CA-related counters provided in 6.5 Performance Monitoring produce non-zero
values, these counters had the value of 0 because there was no CA UE on the
network. No further action is required.
– If the RRC_CONN_RECFG message indicates that the eNodeB configures a
candidate cell as an SCell for the UE, but the CA-related counters in 6.5
Performance Monitoring still retain the value of 0, contact Huawei engineers.
– If the eNodeB does not deliver an RRC_CONN_RECFG message to configure an
SCell for the UE, contact Huawei engineers.
----End
If CA is working in adaptive configuration mode, perform the following steps on the U2000
client:
Step 1 Run the LST ENODEBALGOSWITCH command to check whether the required switches
(FreqCfgSwitch and AdpCaSwitch) under CA Algorithm Switch are on.
l If the switches are on, go to Step 3.
l If the switches are off, go to Step 2.
Step 2 Run the MOD ENODEBALGOSWITCH command with the

FreqCfgSwitch(FreqCfgSwitch) and AdpCaSwitch(AdpCaSwitch) options of the CA
Algorithm Switch parameter selected. Then, check whether the CA-related counters provided
in 6.5 Performance Monitoring produce non-zero values.
l If the counters produce non-zero values, no further action is required.

l If the counters retain the value of 0, go to Step 3.

Step 3 Check whether ALM-26200 Board Hardware Fault or ALM-29240 Cell Unavailable is
reported.
l If an alarm is reported, handle the alarm and then check whether the CA-related counters
0, go to Step 4.
l If neither alarm is reported, go to Step 4.
Step 4 Run the LST PCCFREQCFG and LST SCCFREQCFG commands to check whether PCC
and SCC configurations are correct.
l If the configurations are incorrect, correct them by following the instructions described
in 6.4 Deployment. Then, check whether the CA-related counters provided in 6.5
Performance Monitoring produce non-zero values. If the counters produce non-zero
values, no further action is required. If the counters retain the value of 0, go to Step 5.
Step 5 Run the LST EUTRANINTERNFREQ command and view Downlink EARFCN in the
command output to check whether candidate SCCs are correctly configured as neighboring
frequencies of each cell.
l If the configurations are incorrect, run the MOD EUTRANINTERNFREQ command
to correct them. Then, check whether the CA-related counters provided in 6.5
Performance Monitoring produce non-zero values. If the counters produce non-zero
values, no further action is required. If the counters retain the value of 0, go to Step 6.
Step 6 Run the DSP PCCSCELLLIST command and view PCC Downlink EARFCN and SCC
Downlink EARFCN in the command output to check whether the number of SCells
dynamically configured for each cell has reached eight.
l If the number has reached eight, wait 15 minutes and check again. If the check finds that
CA takes effect, no further action is required. If CA still does not work, contact Huawei
engineers.
l If the number is less than eight, go to Step 7.
Step 7 (Required when no blind-configurable candidate cells are configured) Run the MOD
CAMGTCFG command with the Carrier Aggregation A4 RSRP threshold parameter set
to –140. Run the DSP PCCSCELLLIST command to check the SCells dynamically
configured for the PCell.
l If SCells are displayed in the command output, enable a CA UE to access the network in
the overlapping area of the PCell identified by PCC Local Cell ID and one of the SCells
identified by SCC Local Cell ID.
l If no SCell is displayed in the command output, enable a CA UE to access the network in
the overlapping area of the PCell and a potential SCell.
Step 8 Start Uu interface tracing. When the CA UE accesses the network, observe as follows:
l If CA-related counters provided in 6.5 Performance Monitoring produce non-zero
values, these counters had the value of 0 because there was no CA UE on the network.
No further action is required.
l If the RRC_CONN_RECFG message indicates that the eNodeB configures an SCell for
the UE, but the CA-related counters in 6.5 Performance Monitoring still retain the
value of 0, contact Huawei engineers.

l If the eNodeB does not deliver an RRC_CONN_RECFG message to configure an SCell

for the UE, contact Huawei engineers.

Carrier Aggregation Feature Parameter Description from Multiple Carriers

Flexible CA from Multiple Carriers
7.1 When to Use

Enable this feature if at least two carriers are to be selected from multiple carriers for flexible
aggregation.

For details, see 6.2 Required Information.
7.3 Planning
RF Planning
For details about RF planning, see 6.3 Planning.
Network Planning
l If the live network uses multiple frequency bands, no frequency needs to be added to the
network plan.
l If the live network uses only one or two frequencies, deploy more frequencies.
Hardware Planning
For details about hardware planning, see 6.3 Planning.
7.4 Deployment
Deploy this CA feature on a network with at least three operating frequencies. For details
about how to deploy a multi-carrier network, see Cell Management Feature Parameter
Description.

7.4.1 Requirements
Operating Environment, NEs, and Transmission Networking

The requirements described in 6.4.1 Requirements must be fulfilled. In addition, to allow
downlink nCC aggregation to reach a peak data rate of x Mbit/s in 2x2 MIMO scenarios, the
maximum bit rate that the UE subscribes to in the EPC must be at least x Mbit/s. The mapping
between n and x is as follows:
l If n is 2, x is 300.
License
Deploying LAOFD-070201 Flexible CA from Multiple Carriers requires the following
licenses:
l In CA-group-based configuration mode

In a CA group with more than two cells, each cell requires one sales unit of the license
for LAOFD-070201 Flexible CA from Multiple Carriers and one sales unit of the license
for LAOFD-001001 LTE-A Introduction.
If the total bandwidth of a cell and any other cell in the CA group is between 20 MHz
and 40 MHz (including 40 MHz), the cell also requires one sales unit of the license for
LAOFD-001002 Carrier Aggregation for Downlink 2CC in 40MHz.
NOTE
l If any license is insufficient, a CA group with cells added will not take effect. However, the
original CA group will still work. When this happens, the eNodeB reports ALM-26819 Data
Configuration Exceeding Licensed Limit.
l If the license for LAOFD-070201 Flexible CA from Multiple Carriers is insufficient in an
eNodeB and FreqCfgSwitch under the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter is
turned on and then off, CA will not take effect in any cells in a CA group that includes more
than two cells. In addition, the eNodeB will report ALM-26819 Data Configuration Exceeding
Licensed Limit.
l In adaptive configuration mode
Each cell for which the MultiCarrierFlexCaSwitch option of the
CaMgtCfg.CellCaAlgoSwitch parameter is selected requires one sales unit of the license
for LAOFD-070201 Flexible CA from Multiple Carriers and one sales unit of the license
for LAOFD-001001 LTE-A Introduction. If a cell does not require the license for LTE-A
Introduction in FDD+TDD CA, the cell does not require the license for Flexible CA
from Multiple Carriers when the option is selected.

The prerequisite features for LAOFD-070201 Flexible CA from Multiple Carriers must be
activated.
Before enabling intelligent selection of serving cell combinations, confirm the following:
l The EutranInterFreqNCell.OverlapInd or CaGroupSCellCfg.SCellBlindCfgFlag

parameter has been correctly set for inter-frequency neighboring cells. You are advised
to enable the Auto Neighbor Group Configuration feature for automatic configuration
and check of the two parameters. For details, see Auto Neighbor Group Configuration
Feature Parameter Description. If the two parameters are not correctly configured, CA
UE throughput may decrease. If the two parameters are not set for any inter-frequency
neighboring cell, intelligent selection of serving cell combinations does not take effect in
the current serving cell.
l X2 interfaces have been configured between eNodeBs for inter-eNodeB CA. In inter-
eNodeB CA, the eNodeBs exchange load status information over X2 interfaces. If the
X2 interfaces are not correctly configured, intelligent selection of serving cell
combinations will fail to select appropriate serving cell combinations for inter-eNodeB
CA.

Carrier Aggregation Feature Parameter Description eNodeB CA based on Coordinated eNodeB

Inter-eNodeB CA based on Coordinated
eNodeB
8.1 When to Use

Enable this feature if operators require carrier aggregation between inter-eNodeB cells served
by coordinated eNodeBs.

8.3 Planning
RF Planning
Network Planning
Deploy the eNodeB coordination solution, which is described in 3.1.3.4 LAOFD-070202
Inter-eNodeB CA based on Coordinated eNodeB, in addition to the network planning
described in 6.3 Planning.
Hardware Planning
Use LBBPd or UBBP as baseband processing units. Do not use LBBPc or UMDUa3. For the
antenna modes of cells supported by LBBPd and UBBP boards, see hardware planning
described in 6.3 Planning.

8.4 Deployment
Deploy this CA feature on two to five inter-frequency cells.
8.4.1 Requirements
None
NEs
The requirements described in 6.4.1 Requirements must be fulfilled. In addition, CA in
centralized eNodeB coordination scenarios has the following requirements:
l A USU is required for data exchange between eNodeBs.

l The coordinated eNodeBs use the same software version.
l LMPT, LBBPc, or UMDUa3 cannot be used in the coordinated eNodeBs that
communicate through USUs.
l The eNodeBs must be time-synchronized.
l Routes between inter-eNodeB cells must be established and working properly. When
USU3910 is used, eX2 interfaces must be set up between the eNodeBs. If the eNodeBs
belong to the same operator and are managed by the same U2000, eX2 self-setup works.
If the eNodeBs belong to different operators or are managed by different U2000s, SCTP
links and end-point groups must be manually configured for eX2 interfaces. For details
about the configuration, see eX2 Self-Management Feature Parameter Description.
When USU3900 is used, eX2 interfaces are not required between eNodeBs.
License
Deploying LAOFD-070202 Inter-eNodeB CA based on Coordinated eNodeB requires the
following licenses:
l In CA-group-based configuration mode, each eNodeB on which any CA group includes

an inter-eNodeB cell requires one sales unit of the license for LAOFD-070202 Inter-
eNodeB CA based on Coordinated eNodeB.
l In adaptive configuration mode, each eNodeB with activated cells requires one sales unit
of the license for LAOFD-070202 Inter-eNodeB CA based on Coordinated eNodeB.
In addition, each cell involved in CA requires one sales unit of the license for
LAOFD-001001 LTE-A Introduction and one sales unit of the license for:
l LAOFD-001002 Carrier Aggregation for Downlink 2CC in 40MHz if two inter-eNodeB

CCs are to be aggregated and their total bandwidth is between 20 MHz and 40 MHz
(including 40 MHz).
l LAOFD-080202 Carrier Aggregation for Uplink 2CC if two inter-eNodeB CCs are to be
aggregated in the uplink.

l LAOFD-080207 Carrier Aggregation for Downlink 3CC in 40MHz if three inter-

eNodeB CCs are to be aggregated, and also one sales unit of the license for
LAOFD-080208 Carrier Aggregation for Downlink 3CC in 60MHz if the total
bandwidth of the three CCs exceeds 40 MHz.
l LEOFD-110303 Carrier Aggregation for Downlink 4CC and 5CC if four or five inter-
eNodeB CCs are to be aggregated in the downlink.

8.4.2 Precautions
Pay attention to the precautions described in 6.4.2 Precautions. In addition, a penalty
mechanism applies to eX2 route setups. If three consecutive attempts of an eNodeB to set up
an eX2 route to an inter-BBU cell fail, the eNodeB prohibits the subsequent 30 attempts on
the route.

In addition to that described in 6.4.3 Hardware Adjustment, use USUs to connect eNodeBs
for data exchange between BBPs in centralized or distributed eNodeB coordination scenarios.
For cable connections, see USU3900-based Multi-BBU Interconnection Feature Parameter
Description and USU3910-based Multi-BBU Interconnection Feature Parameter Description.


The parameters described in 6.4.4.1 Data Preparation apply to inter-eNodeB CA in eNodeB
coordination scenarios. In addition, prepare data as follows:
l In CA-group-based configuration mode, set the following switch in the
ENodeBAlgoSwitch MO on. In addition, configure CaGroup, CaGroupCell, and
CaGroupSCellCfg MOs on each eNodeB and ensure that the CaGroup and
CaGroupCell configurations of the eNodeBs involved in CA are consistent. If the
configurations are inconsistent, CA will not work.

will be opposite to the results of selecting
this option.

8.7 Possible Issues

The methods described in 6.7 Possible Issues can be used with the only difference being at
step 4 in the fault handling procedure for CA in CA-group-based configuration mode. In step
4, run the command on each BBU to check whether the configurations are consistent between
the eNodeBs.
l If the configurations are consistent, go to step 5.
l If the configurations are inconsistent, follow the instructions described in 6.4.4.3 Using
MML Commands to configure CaGroupCell MOs to be consistent between the BBUs.
Then, check whether the CA-related counters provided in 6.5 Performance Monitoring
produce non-zero values. If the counters produce non-zero values, no further action is
required. If the counters retain the value of zero, go to step 5.

Carrier Aggregation Feature Parameter Description eNodeB CA based on Relaxed backhaul

Inter-eNodeB CA based on Relaxed backhaul
9.1 When to Use

Enable this feature if operators require CA in inter-frequency coverage by different eNodeBs
on a network with relaxed backhaul requirements. The scenarios include overlapping areas of
indoor and outdoor inter-frequency coverage.

9.3 Planning
RF Planning
Network Planning
Plan the network in accordance with the following requirements, in addition to those
described in 6.3 Planning:
l Inter-eNodeB cells must be reachable through routes.
l According to section J.1 "Deployment Scenarios" in 3GPP TS 36.300 V10.11.0, the
delay spread among the inter-eNodeB CCs monitored at the UE cannot exceed 30.26 μs.
A delay spread of 30.26 μs corresponds to a signal transmission distance difference of
about 9 kilometers among the CCs. Therefore, it is recommended that this feature be
deployed in urban areas to prevent CA failures caused by large inter-eNodeB distances.
Hardware Planning
Plan the hardware in accordance with the following requirements, in addition to those
described in 6.3 Planning:

l Cells on LBBPc boards cannot act as PCells in this feature or as SCells in inter-eNodeB
uplink CA.
l Cells served by BTS3202Es and by BTS3203Es cannot act as PCells for this feature.
They support downlink 2CC aggregation only.
l If the LMPT is used as the main control board, at most seven inter-eNodeB BBPs can be
interconnected because the transport resource group bandwidth of the LMPT is limited.
l If the total bandwidth of five aggregated carriers is 100 MHz, UBBP and UMPT boards
are recommended for processing the data transmitted in PCells. If LBBPd or LMPT
boards are used, the peak data rate may not reach the expected value, due to the lower
hardware capabilities.
9.4 Deployment
Deploy this CA feature on inter-eNodeB inter-frequency cells.
9.4.1 Requirements
None
NEs
The network requirements described in 6.4.1 Requirements must be fulfilled.
l This inter-eNodeB CA feature requires that a GPS or IEEE1588 V2 clock source be
deployed with a time synchronization accuracy within 3 μs. It also requires that the jitter
and packet loss rate meet the requirements described in S1 and X2 Self-Management
l The inter-eNodeB transmission quality must meet the requirements described in the
following table. The maximum one-way delay and maximum RTT supported by this
feature depend on the RelaxedBHCaEnhanceSwitch setting of the
ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter. Inter-eNodeB uplink CA supports only a
maximum one-way delay of 4 ms.

is off is off 1
Recommende l (4,8] when the l (8,16] when the 1 0.001

d switch is on switch is on
Tolerable 2 0.5

The maximum one-way delay and maximum RTT can be queried by running the DSP
EX2UPINFO command. If the status of clock synchronization between two eNodeBs
does not meet the accuracy requirement, the maximum one-way delay cannot be
precisely measured. It can be estimated by taking half of the maximum RTT.
NOTE
l If the transmission delay (maximum one-way delay or RTT), jitter, or packet loss rate
deteriorates, the data rates of CA UEs in relaxed-backhaul-based inter-eNodeB CA decrease.
l If the downlink traffic to be carried on the board or eNodeB that serves the PCell of a UE
exceeds the maximum data rate supported by the hardware, the end-to-end delay between the
PCell and SCells may increase, so that the data rates in the SCells decrease or even drop to
zero.
l In tolerable scenarios, services can be successfully set up but their QoS requirements are not
necessarily fulfilled.
l If TCP is used for application layer data transmission and packet loss occurs on the
transmission link between the eNodeB and the EPC, the data rates of CA UEs may be
adversely affected because of insufficient incoming application layer data packets. This
insufficiency is caused by the limited size of the TCP sliding window.
l The bandwidth of the link between the eNodeBs must meet the bandwidth requirement.
The required link bandwidth can be calculated using the following formula:
Required link bandwidth = Bandwidth of the SCC x Spectral efficiency of the SCC x
Percentage of CA UEs on the SCC x Number of SCells to be associated
Take a 20 MHz SCC as an example. Each time the serving eNodeB of the PCell
associates an inter-eNodeB SCell with the PCell, a link bandwidth of 35 Mbit/s is
required if the uplink and downlink resources are planned to reach average spectral
efficiency of 3.5 and a CA UE percentage of 50%. The required link bandwidth is
calculated as follows: 20 x 3.5 x 50% x 1. However, if the uplink and downlink resources
are planned to reach the maximum spectral efficiency of 7.5 and a CA UE percentage of
100%, a link bandwidth of 150 Mbit/s is required.
The preceding examples are two common cases. Operators can calculate their required
link bandwidths based on site conditions. In consideration of transport protocol
overheads, a bandwidth margin of about 12% must be reserved. As a result, in the
example of 35 Mbit/s link bandwidth, the bandwidth to be configured is calculated as
follows: 35 x (1 + 12%) = 39 Mbit/s.
NOTE
l If an insufficient bandwidth is configured, packet loss will occur on the eX2 interface,
affecting the data rate of UEs in the relaxed-backhaul-based inter-eNodeB CA state. When
configuring the bandwidth of a non-default transmission resource group for the eX2 interface,
operators must consider TOLCALG.TRMDLOLCRELTH and
TOLCALG.TRMULOLCRELTH. The two parameters specify downlink and uplink overload
control relief thresholds, respectively. The bandwidth used to evaluate downlink or uplink
admission to the group is equal to the configured bandwidth multiplied by the downlink or
uplink overload control relief threshold.
l The transmission bandwidth capacity for inter-eNodeB CA varies depending on the board
type. The LMPT, UMPTb, and UMPTe boards support 150 Mbit/s, 300 Mbit/s, and 600
Mbit/s, respectively. BTS3911Es and BTS3912Es support 300 Mbit/s.
l In SCells participating in inter-eNodeB CA, the data rates on the radio interface are
determined by the transport block sizes selected by eNodeBs for UEs. The sizes must not
exceed the maximum allowed transmission bandwidth, and the size type is subject to protocol-
stipulated restrictions. It is possible that a selected transport block size does not precisely
match the transmission bandwidth. As a result, the actual data throughput may fail to reach the
maximum allowed bandwidth even though spare radio resources are available in the SCells.
Inter-eNodeB CA based on relaxed backhaul requires that the inter-eNodeB cells be
reachable through routes. eX2 interfaces must be set up between the eNodeBs. If the

eNodeBs belong to the same operator and are managed by the same U2000, eX2 self-
setup works. If the eNodeBs belong to different operators or are managed by different
U2000s, SCTP links and end-point groups must be manually configured for eX2
interfaces. For details about the configuration, see eX2 Self-Management Feature
License
Deploying LAOFD-080201 Inter-eNodeB CA based on Relaxed backhaul requires the
licenses listed in this section.
When RelaxedBackhaulCaSwitch under ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch is on:
l In CA-group-based configuration mode, the serving eNodeB of each cell in a CA group

that includes relaxed-backhaul-based inter-eNodeB cells requires one sales unit of the
license for LAOFD-080201 Inter-eNodeB CA based on Relaxed backhaul.
l In adaptive configuration mode, if any cell served by an eNodeB acts as a PCell and is
accompanied by an inter-eNodeB SCell for relaxed-backhaul-based CA, each of the
eNodeBs requires one sales unit of the license for LAOFD-080201 Inter-eNodeB CA
based on Relaxed backhaul.
In addition, each cell involved in CA requires one sales unit of the license for
LAOFD-001001 LTE-A Introduction and one sales unit of the license for:
l LAOFD-001002 Carrier Aggregation for Downlink 2CC in 40MHz if two downlink CCs
are to be aggregated, their total bandwidth is between 20 MHz and 40 MHz (including
40 MHz), and the CaDl2CCExtSwitch option of the CaMgtCfg.CellCaAlgoSwitch
parameter is selected for the local cell.
l LAOFD-080207 Carrier Aggregation for Downlink 3CC in 40MHz if three downlink
CCs are to be aggregated and their total bandwidth is between 20 MHz and 40 MHz
(including 40 MHz).

NOTE
When the FreqBaseIntereNBSccSwitch option, introduced in eRAN12.1, of the

ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoExtSwitch parameter is selected for a local eNodeB in a relaxed backhaul
scenario:
l The local eNodeB can acquire the CA-related switch settings of each neighboring eNodeB and,
based on the settings, determine license consumption by local cells (cells served by the local
eNodeB).
For example, if 4CC aggregation has been enabled at a neighboring eNodeB, local cells may act as
SCells. The local eNodeB then determines that each local cell on a candidate SCC configured on the
neighboring eNodeB should consume one sales unit of the license for LEOFD-110303 Carrier
Aggregation for Downlink 4CC and 5CC. If 4CC aggregation has not been enabled at the local
eNodeB or neighboring eNodeBs, local cells will not act as SCells in 4CC aggregation. The local
eNodeB determines that the license for LEOFD-110303 Carrier Aggregation for Downlink 4CC and
5CC should not be consumed by any local cell.
l If the version of a connected neighboring eNodeB is earlier than eRAN12.1, the local eNodeB
assumes that all CA features have been enabled at the neighboring eNodeB, for compatibility
consideration. The local eNodeB attempts to make the consumption of all CA feature licenses take
effect for each local cell. In this situation, the feature query result at the local eNodeB indicates that
the configuration status of all CA features is on.
Others
The prerequisite features for this CA feature must be enabled.

9.4.2 Precautions
In addition to the precautions described in 6.4.2 Precautions, note that:
l Adaptive configuration mode is recommended for relaxed-backhaul-based inter-eNodeB
CA, because it has no special requirements for feature deployment. To use the CA-
group-based configuration mode, each eNodeB must be configured with CaGroup,
CaGroupCell, and CaGroupSCellCfg MOs.
l If three consecutive attempts of an eNodeB to set up an eX2 route to an inter-eNodeB
cell fail, the eNodeB prohibits the subsequent 30 attempts on the route.

In addition to the hardware adjustment described in 6.4.3 Hardware Adjustment, inter-
eNodeB CA based on relaxed backhaul requires that main control boards of the eNodeBs be
interconnected through an IP network for information exchange. For details about the
connections, see eX2 Self-Management Feature Parameter Description.


Inter-eNodeB CA based on relaxed backhaul works in both CA-group-based and adaptive
configuration modes. Prepare data as described in 6.4.4.1 Data Preparation with the
following differences taken into consideration:
l In CA-group-based configuration mode, configure CaGroup, CaGroupCell, and
CaGroupSCellCfg MOs on each eNodeB and ensure that the CaGroup and
CaGroupCell configurations of the eNodeBs involved in CA are consistent. If the
configurations are inconsistent, CA will not work.
l In adaptive configuration mode, there are no special requirements. Adaptive
configuration mode is recommended for this feature.
In addition, prepare data as follows for inter-eNodeB CA based on relaxed backhaul in either
configuration mode:

9.7 Possible Issues

In addition to the troubleshooting methods described in 6.7 Possible Issues, the following
method is available for troubleshooting inter-eNodeB CA based on relaxed backhaul:
Step 1 On the U2000 client, check whether ALM-25888 SCTP Link Fault or ALM-25952 User
Plane Path Fault has been reported.
l If either alarm has been reported, handle the alarm and then check whether the CA-
related counters provided in 6.5 Performance Monitoring produce non-zero values.
– If the counters produce non-zero values, no further action is required.
– If the counters retain the value of 0, go to step 2.
l If neither alarm has been reported, go to step 2.
Step 2 Check the L.Traffic.User.PCell.RelaxedBackhaulCA.OFF counter for the number of times
CA has stopped. If the counter value is less than 10, no further action is required. If the
counter value is greater than or equal to 10, contact Huawei engineers.

Carrier Aggregation Feature Parameter Description Downlink Carrier Aggregation(LTE FDD)

MRFD-101222 FDD+TDD Downlink Carrier
13.1 When to Use

Enable this feature if operators require aggregation of FDD and TDD carriers in the downlink.

13.3 Planning
RF Planning
Network Planning
For details about network planning for FDD carriers, see 6.3 Planning. For details about
network planning for TDD carriers, see Carrier Aggregation in the eRAN TDD feature
documentation. In addition, to use FDD+TDD CA, ensure that time synchronization is used in
eNodeBs and the synchronization accuracy meets the requirement described in 3.1.3.1
LAOFD-001001 LTE-A Introduction.
Hardware Planning
For details about hardware planning for FDD carriers, see 6.3 Planning. For details about
hardware planning for TDD carriers, see Carrier Aggregation in the eRAN TDD feature
documentation.
In addition, make the hardware plan for FDD+TDD CA with the following principles taken
into consideration:

l If an FDD cell on an LBBPd4 board acts as the PCell for a CA UE, aggregation of three
or more downlink FDD and TDD CCs will not work.
l The peak data rate that CA can achieve for a CA UE is limited by the peak data rate
capability of the board where the PCell for the CA UE is located. For example, if the
PCell of a CA UE is served by an LBBPd1 board that supports a downlink peak data rate
of 450 Mbit/s, the peak downlink data rate that CA can achieve for the CA UE will not
exceed 450 Mbit/s.
l FDD+TDD CA cannot be used with cells on LBBPc boards. If a physical cell of an SFN
cell is established on an LBBPc board, FDD+TDD CA cannot be used with the SFN cell
either.
l If a TDD cell for FDD+TDD CA has been configured with a non-zero value of frame
offset, the same value of frame offset must be set for the FDD cells in the CA
combination. FDD hardware of SRAN10.1 or later versions, except BTS3203Es, all
support frame offset setting.
l For FDD+TDD separate-BBU separate-MPT deployment, plan BBP interconnection
with the following restrictions taken into consideration:
– The interconnection of only two BBUs is supported. Neither a single BBU nor
interconnection of more BBUs is supported. The two interconnected BBUs can be
connected to other BBUs in USU3910-based centralized eNodeB coordination or
– LBBPd, UBBPd, or UBBPe/UBBPei boards can be connected to other BBPs
through interconnection cables, but LBBPc boards cannot.
– If BBU3900s are used, each BBP must be installed in slot 2 or 3 and baseband
interconnection cables connect only the BBPs in slot 2 or 3 of the BBUs. A
maximum of two baseband interconnection cables can be used for connecting two
BBUs. For example, m LBBPd, UBBPd, or UBBPe/UBBPei boards are configured
in one BBU and n LBBPd, UBBPd, or UBBPe/UBBPei boards are configured in
the other BBU. When either m or n is 1, only one baseband interconnection cable
can be used. When either m or n is equal to 3 or more, two baseband
interconnection cables can be used. In other situations, one baseband
interconnection cable can be used. If m or n is equal to 3 or more and only one
baseband interconnection cable is used, the bandwidth for inter-BBU user-plane
data transmission may be insufficient.
– If BBU3910s are used, BBPs can be installed in any slot and a maximum of two
baseband interconnection cables can be used to connect two BBUs.
– An electrical cable used as a baseband interconnection cable cannot exceed 5
meters. An optical cable used this way cannot exceed 10 meters.

engineers.
13.4 Deployment
Deploy this CA feature on two single-carrier cells or a dual-carrier sector. For details about
how to deploy a dual-carrier sector, see Cell Management Feature Parameter Description.
13.4.1 Requirements

The requirements described in this section and 6.4.1 Requirements must be fulfilled. In case
of collision, the requirements described in this section prevail.
The EPC and UEs must meet the following requirements:
l To allow downlink mFDD+nTDD aggregation to reach a peak data rate of x Mbit/s in
downlink 2x2 MIMO scenarios, the maximum bit rate that the UE subscribes to in the
EPC must be at least x Mbit/s. The mapping between m, n, and x is as follows:
– If m and n are 2 and 1, respectively, x is 410.
The inter-eNodeB transmission quality must meet the requirements described in the following
table. The maximum one-way delay and maximum RTT depend on the
RelaxedBHCaEnhanceSwitch setting of the ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter.
Scenario Maximum One- Maximum RTT Jitter Packet

Way Delay (ms) (ms) Loss Rate
(ms) (%)
Best l ≤ 4 when the l ≤ 8 when the 0 0.0001

switch is off switch is off
Recommended 1 0.001

Scenario Maximum One- Maximum RTT Jitter Packet

Way Delay (ms) (ms) Loss Rate
(ms) (%)
Tolerable l (4,8] when the l (8,16] when the 2 0.5

switch is on switch is on
It is recommended that the CaRlcPreAllocSwitch option of the

ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CaAlgoSwitch parameter be selected, which has become the default
state since eRAN12.1. This can relieve the impact of out-of-order RLC data transmission and
insufficient sequence numbers for CA UEs on the data rates of these UEs.
NOTE
l If the transmission delay (maximum one-way delay or RTT), jitter, or packet loss rate deteriorates,
the data rates of CA UEs in relaxed-backhaul-based inter-eNodeB CA decrease.
l If the downlink traffic to be carried on the board or eNodeB that serves the PCell of a UE exceeds
the maximum data rate supported by the hardware, the end-to-end delay between the PCell and
SCells may increase, so that the data rates in the SCells decrease or even drop to zero.
l In tolerable scenarios, services can be successfully set up, but the QoS requirements of services
other than Voice over LTE (VoLTE) and push to talk (PTT) are not necessarily fulfilled.
l If TCP is used for application layer data transmission and packet loss occurs on the transmission link
between the eNodeB and the EPC, the data rates of CA UEs may be adversely affected because the
incoming application layer data packets are insufficient due to the TCP window size limited by the
TCP window sliding mechanism.

13.4.2 Precautions
Take the following precautions, in addition to those described in 6.4.2 Precautions:
l The subframe configurations of TDD cells and the frame offset settings for FDD and
TDD cells must meet the requirements described in 3.1.3.9 MRFD-101222 FDD+TDD
Downlink Carrier Aggregation(LTE FDD).
l To address the fact that some UEs report band combinations for FDD+TDD CA but do
not report PCell capability fields, you are advised to select the following options of the
ENodeBAlgoSwitch.CompatibilityCtrlSwitch parameter:
– FddTddCaPcellDuplexFdd: specifies whether the eNodeB considers that a UE
supports FDD+TDD CA with an FDD PCell when the UE reports the FDD+TDD
CA band combination but does not report the IE tdd-FDD-CA-PCellDuplex-r12.
The eNodeB considers that the UE supports FDD+TDD CA with an FDD PCell
only if this option is selected.
– FddTddCaPcellDuplexTdd: specifies whether the eNodeB considers that a UE
supports FDD+TDD CA with a TDD PCell when the UE reports the FDD+TDD
CA band combination but does not report the IE tdd-FDD-CA-PCellDuplex-r12.
The eNodeB considers that the UE supports FDD+TDD CA with a TDD PCell only
if this option is selected.

l In scenarios other than FDD+TDD separate-BBU separate-MPT scenarios, adjust
hardware as described in 6.4.3 Hardware Adjustment.
l In FDD+TDD separate-BBU separate-MPT scenarios, contact Huawei engineers for
hardware adjustment.



Prepare data as described in 6.4.4.1 Data Preparation. Set the following switch in the
CaMgtCfg MO on.

cells, select this option for the local cell. If
the local cell is an FDD cell, TDD cells can
act as SCells to accompany the FDD PCell. If
the local cell is a TDD cell, FDD cells can act
as SCells to accompany the TDD PCell.

Switch that accompany inter-eNodeB cells.
l If this option is selected, the cells served
by the local eNodeB can be SCells that
accompany inter-eNodeB cells. As a
result, the number of CA UEs that treat
any cell served by the local eNodeB as
their SCells increases, and the PRB
usage of each cell rises. From the
network perspective, the number of UEs
with SCells configured on the entire
network increases, and the average
throughput rises.
l If this option is deselected, the cells
served by the local eNodeB cannot be
cells. The results will be opposite to the
results of selecting this option.

Carrier Aggregation Feature Parameter Description Uplink Carrier Aggregation (LTE FDD)

MRFD-111222 FDD+TDD Uplink Carrier
14.1 When to Use

Enable this feature if operators require aggregation of two FDD and TDD carriers in the
uplink.

14.3 Planning
RF Planning
Network Planning
For details about network planning for FDD carriers, see 6.3 Planning. For details about
network planning for TDD carriers, see Carrier Aggregation in the eRAN TDD feature
documentation.
Hardware Planning
For details about hardware planning for FDD carriers, see 6.3 Planning. For details about
hardware planning for TDD carriers, see Carrier Aggregation in the eRAN TDD feature
documentation.
In addition, make the hardware plan for FDD+TDD CA with the following principles taken
into consideration:

l FDD+TDD CA cannot be used with cells on LBBPc boards. If a physical cell of an SFN
cell is established on an LBBPc board, FDD+TDD CA cannot be used with the SFN cell
either.
l If a TDD cell for FDD+TDD CA has been configured with a non-zero value of frame
offset, the same value of frame offset must be set for the FDD cells in the CA
combination. FDD hardware of SRAN10.1 or later versions, except BTS3203Es, all
support frame offset setting.
l For FDD+TDD separate-BBU separate-MPT deployment, plan BBP interconnection
with the following restrictions taken into consideration:
– The interconnection of only two BBUs is supported. Neither a single BBU nor
interconnection of more BBUs is supported. The two interconnected BBUs can be
connected to other BBUs in USU3910-based centralized eNodeB coordination or
– LBBPd, UBBPd, or UBBPe/UBBPei boards can be connected to other BBPs
through interconnection cables, but LBBPc boards cannot.
– If BBU3900s are used, each BBP must be installed in slot 2 or 3 and baseband
interconnection cables connect only the BBPs in slot 2 or 3 of the BBUs. A
maximum of two baseband interconnection cables can be used for connecting two
BBUs. For example, m LBBPd, UBBPd, or UBBPe/UBBPei boards are configured
in one BBU and n LBBPd, UBBPd, or UBBPe/UBBPei boards are configured in
the other BBU. When either m or n is 1, only one baseband interconnection cable
can be used. When either m or n is equal to 3 or more, two baseband
interconnection cables can be used. In other situations, one baseband
interconnection cable can be used. If m or n is equal to 3 or more and only one
baseband interconnection cable is used, the bandwidth for inter-BBU user-plane
data transmission may be insufficient.
– If BBU3910s are used, BBPs can be installed in any slot and a maximum of two
baseband interconnection cables can be used to connect two BBUs.
– An electrical cable used as a baseband interconnection cable cannot exceed 5
meters. An optical cable used this way cannot exceed 10 meters.

engineers.
14.4 Deployment
Deploy this CA feature on two single-carrier cells or a dual-carrier sector. For details about
how to deploy a dual-carrier sector, see Cell Management Feature Parameter Description.
14.4.1 Requirements

l To allow uplink FDD+TDD CA to reach a peak data rate of 60 Mbit/s in 2x2 MIMO
scenarios, the maximum uplink and downlink bit rates that the UE subscribes to in the
EPC must be at least 60 Mbit/s and 260 Mbit/s, respectively.
carriers to be aggregated and their channel bandwidths.
License
Deploying uplink FDD+TDD CA requires the licenses listed in this section. For this feature to
take effect, prerequisite features must be licensed. Details are as follows:
l Each cell on a component FDD carrier requires one sales unit of the license for
MRFD-101222 FDD+TDD Downlink Carrier Aggregation(LTE FDD) and one sales unit
of the license for MRFD-111222 FDD+TDD Uplink Carrier Aggregation (LTE FDD).
l Each cell on a component TDD carrier requires one sales unit of the license for
MRFD-101231 FDD+TDD Downlink Carrier Aggregation(LTE TDD) and one sales unit
of the license for MRFD-111232 FDD+TDD Uplink Carrier Aggregation (LTE TDD).

610 8x64 ImIcSwitch: Indicates whether to enable the
MU- intermodulation (IM) interference cancellation for
MIMO UEs. When data is transmitted in both the uplink and
downlink, uplink signals generate two IM components
symmetrically beside the Direct Current (DC)
subcarrier on the downlink receive channel due to the
nonlinearity of the UE receive channel. If this option
is selected, IM component elimination is performed

throughput. This option applies only to LTE TDD.
UlEnhancedSrSchSwitch: Indicates whether uplink re-

scheduling is performed only when the On Duration
timer for the DRX long cycle starts. Uplink re-
scheduling is required if the number of HARQ
retransmissions for a scheduling request (SR) reaches
the maximum value but the scheduling still fails. If
this option is selected, uplink re-scheduling is
performed only when the On Duration timer for the
DRX long cycle starts. If this option is deselected,
uplink re-scheduling is performed immediately when
the number of HARQ retransmissions for SR reaches
the maximum value but the scheduling still fails. It is
recommended that this option be selected for live
networks. This option applies only to LTE FDD and
LTE TDD.
SchedulerCtrlPowerSwitch: Indicates whether the

uplink scheduler performs scheduling without
considering power control restrictions. If this option is
selected, the uplink scheduler performs scheduling

FDD and LTE TDD.
UlMinGbrSwitch: Indicates whether to ensure uplink

minimum guaranteed bit rate (GBR). If this option is
selected, the minimum GBR of non-GBR services is
ensured by increasing the scheduling priority of UEs
whose non-GBR service rates are lower than the
minimum GBR. This option applies only to LTE FDD
and LTE TDD.
UlMbrCtrlSwitch: Indicates whether to enable uplink

scheduling based on the maximum bit rate (MBR) and
guaranteed bit rate (GBR) on the GBR bearer. If this
option is selected, the eNodeB performs uplink
scheduling on GBR bearers based on the MBR and
GBR. If this option is deselected, the eNodeB
performs uplink scheduling on GBR bearers based
only on the GBR. This option applies only to LTE
FDD and LTE TDD.
MbrUlSchSwitch: Indicates whether the eNodeB

performs uplink scheduling based on the MBR. If this
option is selected, the eNodeB prioritizes UEs based
on the MBRs during uplink scheduling. This option
UeAmbrUlSchSwitch: Indicates whether the eNodeB

performs uplink scheduling based on the aggregate
maximum bit rate (AMBR) of UEs. If this option is
selected, the eNodeB prioritizes UEs based on the
AMBRs of UEs during uplink scheduling. This option
UlEnhancedDopplerSwitch: Indicates whether to

enable enhanced uplink scheduling based on mobility
speed estimation. If this option is selected, enhanced
uplink scheduling based on mobility speed estimation
is enabled. In enhanced uplink scheduling based on
mobility speed estimation, the eNodeB uses Doppler
measurement results to identify low-speed UEs to
further improve uplink performance of low-speed
UEs. If this option is deselected, enhanced uplink
scheduling based on mobility speed is disabled.
Enhanced uplink scheduling based on mobility speed
takes effect only when the DopMeasLevel parameter
is set to CLASS_1(CLASS_1) and the
UlEnhancedDopplerSwitch option is selected. This
option does not apply to cells established on LBBPc
boards. This option applies only to LTE FDD.

interface resource congestion, this option restricts the
number of preambles to perform flow control on UEs
accessing the cell.
UlLast2RetransSchOptSwitch: Indicates whether to
optimize the scheduling policy for the last two
retransmissions. If this option is selected, the
scheduling policy is optimized for the last two
retransmissions. If the UE transmit power is not
limited, adaptive retransmission is used, and the
number of RBs increases in the last two
retransmissions to increase the receive success rate of
the last two retransmissions and decrease uplink
RBLER. If this option is deselected, the scheduling
policy is not optimized for the last two
retransmissions. This option applies only to LTE FDD
and LTE TDD.
