Enhanced LMMSE equalizer for high-speed single frequency network in HSDPA
2011
Currently, considerable interest has been shown in the research and standardization communities in multicell transmission schemes for HSPA, with a number of possible schemes under discussion that include Multiflow, Fast Cell Switching (FCS) and High-Speed Single Frequency Network (HS-SFN). In particular, HS-SFN is a promising technique that not only combines received energy from participating cells, but also reduces intercell interference with low UE complexity. In principle, HS-SFN can be implemented with a small modification to an LMMSE receiver at the UE. This paper introduces a more advanced LMMSE equalizer for High-Speed Single Frequency Network in HSDPA that achieves further performan…
HSDPA Link Adaptation Improvement Based on Node-B CQI Processing
2007
In this paper HSDPA link adaptation (LA) based on Channel Quality Indicator (CQI) reports is optimised. A pre-processing of the last received CQI reports is done before the execution of the LA algorithm in the Node-B in order to obtain more profitable channel quality estimations and hence improve the LA performance. Different types of processing techniques are presented and assessed, considering from the simplest sample averaging to some more elaborated predictive algorithms. Results demonstrate that a non negligible enhancement in the LA performance can be obtained if medium and high speed users are considered.
VoIP end-to-end performance in HSPA with packet age aided HSDPA scheduling
2008
In this paper, we present an enhanced VoIP scheduling for the high speed downlink packet access (HSDPA) in UMTS, which takes the age of the VoIP packet into account. The downlink capacity can be significantly improved by this way, especially for shorter uplink transmission delay. In order to quantify the achievable performance improvement, we present results obtained from extensive system-level uplink and downlink simulations. Inter alia, it is shown that using the proposed scheme can lead to an increase in the downlink cell capacity of up to 16%. By applying the proposed method, the downlink performance can be improved considerably while the uplink performance remains the same, which ensur…
Healthy and sustainable diet and physical activity: the rationale for and experiences from developing a combined summary score
2018
Aims: First, to describe the rationale for developing a combined summary score, the Healthy and Sustainable Dietary and Physical Activity habits (HSDPA) score, incorporating four selected dietary and physical activity aspects: (a) the New Nordic Diet, (b) local and sustainable foods, (c) active transportation and (d) non-exercise outdoor activities. Secondly, to describe the experiences from constructing the HSDPA score. Methods: Relevant literature covering the four aspects of interest was reviewed to secure a well-grounded rationale and a theory-based approach. To measure compliance with such a broad approach targeting diet, physical activity, health and environmental sustainability, the…
On Serving Cell Change Reliability in HSDPA Network
2009
In Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) networks the Signaling Radio Bearer (SRB) is transmitted downlink to inform the user i.a. when it needs to make a handover. When transmitting e.g. Voice over IP (VoIP) on High Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) SRB is mapped on HSDPA user data channel, High-Speed Downlink Shared Channel (HS-DSCH) in order to maximize voice capacity. The lack of support for soft handover (SHO) of HS-DSCH may compromise the reception of SRB and thus also a possible incoming serving HSDPA cell change command especially at the cell borders. This can lead to serious VoIP service degradation due to prolonged camping on a poor cell and in the worst case even to c…
