1 Introduction
Iub is the interface between RNC and NodeB. There are mainly three kinds of Iub transport scenarios: ATM over E1/T1, IP over E1/T1 and IP over Ethernet. Figure 1 and Figure 2 illustrates the scenario of ATM/IP over E1/T1 and IP over Ethernet.
The purpose of Iub dimensioning is to estimate the required Iub bandwidth and the corresponding number of E1 pairs or IP transport bandwidth. This document is organized as follows: Section 1 is the introduction; Section 2 introduces the Iub dimensioning principle and procedure and compares the protocol structure and Iub overhead for ATM/IP over E1/T1 and IP over Ethernet; Section 3 introduces the detailed procedure of Iub bandwidth dimensioning for services, CCH and O&M; Section 4 gives a case study for IP over Ethernet transmission mode.

For the multi-services in UMTS, Huawei has carried out in-depth research in the field of multi-service network dimensioning and adopts multidimensional ErlangB model to estimate the Iub bandwidth of CS, CS/VoIP over HSPA multi-services. Apart from services bandwidth, Iub bandwidth dimensioning includes calculation of Iub bandwidth occupied by MBMS, common channels and O&M. Figure 3 shows the Iub dimensioning procedure.

For mixed CS, CS/VoIP over HSPA, PS and HSPA services Iub bandwidth dimensioning, best effort characteristic of PS and HSPA is used. In other words, the spare part of Iub bandwidth which is not used by CS services can be utilized by PS and HSPA services. Figure 4 illustrates sharing of Iub bandwidth by CS, CS/VoIP over HSPA, PS and HSPA.

Therefore, the total Iub bandwidth can be obtained through the following formula:
IubTotal = Max[( Max[ IubCS ,CS / VoIPoverHSPA _ Peak , ( IubPS _ Avg + IubCS ,CS / VoIPoverHSPA _ Avg + IubHSPA )]), IubHSPA _ End used _ Experience _ Rate ] + IubMBMS + IubCCH + IubO & M
The ultimate Iub configuration is decided by the larger one of uplink and downlink Iub bandwidth.

On the other hand, Only ATM over E1/T1 has ALCAP protocol layer.

1) The activity factor of AMR12.2k and CS/VoIP over HSPA is 0.65, and that of the other services is 1; 2) The Iub bandwidth occupied by SRB (3.4kbps) is included and the SRB activity factor is 0.1; 3) The Duty Ratio of CS/VoIP over HSPA is 0.1.
Notes: 1) Terminal Type 1: supports HSDPA( lower than 14.4Mbps) and phase 1 / phase 2 HSUPA( 1.96Mbps or 5.76Mbps); 2) Terminal Type 2: supports 64QAM or MIMO or 64QAM+MIMO or DC-HSDPA in downlink, and 16QAM in uplink.

CS and CS/voIP over HSPA services peak Iub bandwidth is calculated by multidimensional ErlangB algorithm in Huawei. Multidimensional ErlangB can estimate the respective blocking probability of various CS and CS/voIP over HSPA services. Under a fixed Iub bandwidth, different services have different blocking probabilities, which depend on their Iub bandwidth usages. Multidimensional ErlangB model is illustrated in Figure 6.
The resource is shared by all services in multidimensional ErlangB model, which takes good advantage of the fact that the probability of simultaneous bursts from many independent traffic sources is very small. The following figure illustrates the gain when the resource is shared compared to when the resource is partitioned.

Once we know the GoS requirement of CS and CS/voIP over HSPA services, the CS and CS/voIP over HSPA traffic per NodeB (after considering soft handover ratio) and the service Iub bandwidth, we can calculate the CS and CS/voIP over HSPA services peak Iub bandwidth using multidimensional ErlangB MDE model. This idea is shown in Figure 8.
Note: Iub factors means Iub bearer bandwidth including FP, AAL2 and ATM or IP overhead for service i.

consider the PS characteristics, e.g. PS burstiness, retransmission. The formula below is used to calculate PS Iub bandwidth:
Iub PS _ Average =
RRe trans : Retransmission factor of PS services, which is equal to BLER/(1-BLER); RBurst : Burst ratio of PS services and this parameter reflects the Qos requirement of PS services.

3.5.2 Iub bandwidth for HSPA End-user Experience Rate Bandwidth requirement
If HSPA End-user Experience Rate Bandwidth such as 3.6Mbps and 7.2Mbps is given, the Iub bandwidth needed by peak rate can be calculated by the following formula:
Iub HSDPA _ Peak = PeakRatePerNodeB * (1 + RRe trans ) * (1 + R Iub _ overhead )
It should be noted that the PeakRatePerNodeB is the application layer rate and the relationship between application layer rate and physical layer rate is given in the following table:

Since peak rate is used for Iub calculation, there is no need to consider additional burst ratio;

The Iub bandwidth calculation is exemplified with a case study using the following traffic model given in Table2 and the HSPA End-user Experience Rate Bandwidth (peak rate) requirement of HSDPA is 7.2Mbps.
