Binding ID

Binding Identifier (Binding ID) is used to initialise the linkage between

ALCAP and Application Part (RANAP, RNSAP, NBAP) identifiers.

Binding Identifier can be used both in Radio Network Control plane

Application Part protocols and in Transport Network Control Plane's
ALCAP protocol.

Binding ID binds the Radio and Transport Network Control plane

identifiers together.

Cause (CAU)
Gives the reason of an operational error
Describes the reason for the release of connection
Indicates the reason why connection could not established

Connection element identifier (CEID)

It consists of AAL type 2 path identifier and Channel identifier (CID).
AAL type 2 path identifier has field size of 4 octets. A value of 0 in all octets indicates
Null.
Channel identifier has field size of 1 octet. It can have value in the range of 8 to 255. A
value of 0 indicates Null.

AAL type 2 service endpoint address (A2EA)

It carries end point address of the destination.
It can have E.164 or NSAP format.

5.2.1 Dedicated uplink physical channels

There are three types of uplink dedicated physical channels, the uplink Dedicated
Physical Data Channel (uplink DPDCH), the uplink Dedicated Physical Control Channel
(uplink DPCCH ), and the uplink Dedicated Control Channel associated with HS-DSCH
transmission (uplink HS-DPCCH ).

The DPDCH, the DPCCH and the HS-DPCCH are I/Q code multiplexed.

The uplink DPDCH is used to carry the DCH transport channel.

The uplink DPCCH is used to carry control information generated at Layer 1. The Layer 1
control information consists of known pilot bits, transmit power-control (TPC) commands,
feedback information (FBI), and transport-format combination indicator (TFCI).

5.3.2 Dedicated downlink physical channels

There is only one type of downlink dedicated physical channel, the Downlink Dedicated
Physical Channel (downlink DPCH).

Within one downlink DPCH, dedicated data generated at Layer 2 and above, i.e. the
dedicated transport channel (DCH), is transmitted in time-multiplex with control
information generated at Layer 1 (known pilot bits, TPC commands, and an optional
TFCI). The downlink DPCH can thus be seen as a time multiplex of a downlink DPDCH and
a downlink DPCCH.

PHYSICAL SHARED CHANNEL RECONFIGURATION REQUEST is sent by the RNC during the restart
of the BS. It defines the Max power and Max number of codes SF 16 available for the HS-DSCH
channel.
MAC hs is responsible for HS-PDSCH management. Codes selection is a dynamic procedure based
on Ue BS link quality.

CAPACITY REQUEST

Figure 12B: HS-DSCH Capacity Request procedure

The HS-DSCH Capacity Request procedure provides means for the RNC to request
HS-DSCH capacity to the BS , by indicating the user buffer size in the RNC for a
given priority level (CmCH-PI).
The RNC is allowed to reissue the HS-DSCH Capacity Request if from the BS no
CAPACITY ALLOCATION has been received within an appropriate time threshold.

5.10 HS-DSCH Capacity Allocation

Node B CRNC

CAPACITY ALLOCATION

HS-DSCH Capacity Allocation is generated either in response to a HS-DSCH

Capacity Request or at any other time.
The flow control is mainly controlled by the Node-B sending capacity allocation
messages. The Node-B does know the status of the buffers in the RNC by the
capacity request and by every further data frame . So the Node B may use this
message to modify the traffic flow at any time by indicating its capacity to deliver
PDU.
 These are the possible status for a UE in a UMTS
UE RRC status network
IDLE MODE: Stand by mode. The UE is able to
listen to BCH channel through the PCCPCH in
order to receive the System Information. No RRC
is available for the UE.

CELL DCH: one of the Connected Mode. The UE

is able to send and receive RRC messages
DPDCH.
Connected Mode
Cell DCH From Cell DCH for inactivity timer the UE can
Idle Cell PCH
move to Cell FACH . Here it is able to use the
mode Cell FACH DCCH and DTCH through the SCCPCH. This
status allow the UE to save battery and
URA PCH resources. The UE can maintain low bit rate
connection with the HTTP server.

From Cell FACH for inactivity timer the UE can

move to Cell PCH. This status allow the UE to
save battery. In fact here the UE listen to the
PCH only.

URA PCH status is optional. It can be adopted in

case is necessary to decrease the number of cell
update performed by the UE when it move from
one to another cell.
