Introduction to 1xEV-DV

• CDMA2000 1x FL currently has 3 modes of transmitting data:

– Fundicated Channel (F-FCH / F-DCCH)• Low rate data, circuit-switched like• One to each MS

– Supplemental Channel (F-SCH)• Higher rate data, packet data or circuit-switched• Typically time-shared among users, ~160 ms at a time

– Broadcast Control Channel (F-BCCH)• Small payloads, low rate, large latencies• SMS-like data

• Introduces a new Packet Data Channel (F-PDCH) :– Called as FL Radio Configuration 10

– High rate, rapidly time-shared among users

– Uses adaptive modulation and coding schemes

• Allocates left-over power to the packet data channel (PDCH)

• Data to different users are TDM’d on F-PDCH

• Uses advanced communication techniques:– Channel-sensitive scheduling – Multi-user diversity– Adaptive modulation and coding– Incremental redundancy

4 Key Principles of 1xEV-DV

1) Rapid Adaptive modulation and coding for each transmission

2) Transmit for short durations of time

Adapt parameters based on:a. Available BTS resourcesb. Amount of data to transmitc. Channel condition

Allows the full use of available resources

Transmission durations of 1.25 ms to 5 ms:Minimizes variations during transmission period due to:

a. Available resourcesb. Channel conditions

4 Key Principles of 1xEV-DV

3) Transmit to only 1 (or 2) users at a time

Wait, and transmit to a user when the user’s channel is at its bestAvoids wasting power trying to get a packet through the channel when it has faded away

Also called as Adaptive Asynchronous Incremental Redundancy techniqueGet ACK or NAK back fast from the MSCombine transmissions and re-transmissions for better decodingAllows to be very aggressive and transmit at highest data rate possible

4) Provide a method for fast and efficient re-transmission

Latest Trends and New EnhancementsApril 2004

33

Key Factors to Better Performance

• Latency Improvement

– Ability to start a new packet at 4-slot boundaries

– Terminals have the ability to boost transmit power to force packet termination after the first, second or third sub packets

• Flexibility in the choice of Payload Size Vs. Data Rate combinations

– Bigger/Longer Packets provide more coding gain, time diversity, and are more capacity-efficient

– Smaller/Shorter Packets provide better packing efficiency (for low rate traffic) and are more delay-efficient

• Modulation– QPSK

• SF = 4– Maximum number of OVSF codes = 3

• HARQ– Synchronous operation

• Retransmissions– 4 redundancy versions– Incremental redundancy (IR)

• Peak Rate– 4.096 Mbps with 2 ms TTI– 819.2 kbps with 10 ms TTI

Summary• 3G wireless services are rapidly spreading the global market place with

CDMA as the preferred technology solution

• The following are the key 3G Technologies that have emerged to be the key commercial players:

– CDMA2000 1X

– CDMA2000 1xEV-DO

– WCDMA

• The main focus of 3G so far has been to provide high capacity voice and higher downlink data throughput

– 26 Erlangs in 1.25 MHz voice capacity with CDMA2000 1x

– 1.15 Mbps in 1.25 MHz downlink average sector throughput with 1xEV-DO

– 51 Erlangs in 5 MHz voice capacity with WCDMA

• A host of new enhancements are underway for all flavors of 3G CDMA technologies

– More Capable Uplink

– Provision for higher data rates for both Up and Down links

– All IP, QoS and Support for Multimedia applications

– 3.1 Mbps in 1.25 MHz carrier Downlink Peak Data Rates with 1xEV-DO

– 4.1 Mbps in 5 MHz carrier Uplink Peak Data Rates with WCDMA/HSDPA

– 52 Erlangs Voice Capacity in 1.25 MHz carrier with CDMA2000

1xEV-DV: Data and Voice Performance Issues

• Optimal data solution is possible when packet data is sent on a dedicated RF channel where data throughput can be maximized by using the following techniques:

– Transmit full power and use all code channels whenever data is to be transmitted

– Apply multi-user diversity with channel-sensitive scheduling– Use Adaptive modulation and coding– Use Incremental redundancy (H-ARQ)

• BS transmit power and number of code channels in use vary rapidly because of fast forward power control and soft handoffs of voice users

• Requires reserving margin in both power and code channels for voice traffic

• Power may not be available for an optimal data solution– Not able to transmit at high data rates even if channel condition is good

• Results in loss in data throughput without gaining in voice capacity A net loss in efficiency
