Layered Paging in Idle Mode Feature Parameter Description 2 Overview

2 Overview

2.1 Introduction
Due to the rapid rise of smartphone use in recent years, packet switched (PS) paging messages
have accounted for an increasingly large proportion of paging messages. Conventionally, PS
paging messages are sent to the entire location area (LA) or routing area (RA) because the RNC
does not know on which cell a UE in idle mode camps. Due to the large paging area, the
conventional paging mechanism causes high Uu-interface paging load and even PCH
congestion.
To address this issue, the Layered Paging in Idle Mode feature has been introduced. This feature
enables the RNC to perform layered paging on a UE in idle mode as follows:
1. First-layer paging: The RNC first pages the UE in the last camped-on cell and the cell's
neighboring cells under the same RNC.
2. Second-layer paging: If the first-layer paging fails, the RNC pages the UE in the entire LA
or RA.
Layered Paging in Idle Mode reduces the Uu-interface paging load, relieves PCH congestion,
and reduces costs of splitting LAs or RAs.
Figure 2-1 compares the paging area for conventional paging with the paging area for layered
paging.

Layered Paging in Idle Mode Feature Parameter Description 2 Overview

2.2 Benefits
Layered Paging in Idle Mode reduces the Uu-interface paging load of UEs in idle mode. The
reduced paging load is:

l Inversely proportional to the average number of a cell's configured neighboring cells


l Proportional to the number of configured cells in an LA or RA
l Proportional to the first-layer paging success rate

For example, the Uu-interface paging load of UEs in idle mode decreases by 30% to 70% in the
following scenario:

l 1200 cells are configured in an LA or RA.


l An average of 43 neighboring cells are configured for a cell.
l The first-layer paging success rate is 90%.

2.3 Architecture
The Layered Paging in Idle Mode feature consists of three functions:

l Subscriber information recording


When the radio resource control (RRC) connection of a UE in idle mode is released, this
feature enables the RNC to record the UE's subscriber information (including the subscriber
identifier and the information about the last camped-on cell) into a UE location information
table. This facilitates the query of the UE's last camped-on cell.
l Layered paging
Upon receiving a paging message from the Iu interface, the RNC reads the last camped-on
cell from the UE location information table. The RNC first pages the UE in the last camped-
on cell and the cell's neighboring cells under the same RNC. If the first-layer paging fails,
the RNC pages the UE in the entire LA or RA.
l Management of aged subscriber information
The RNC uses an aging timer to manage the UE's subscriber information in the UE location
information table. If the UE does not interact with the radio access network (RAN) before
the timer expires, the RNC removes the subscriber information from the UE location
information table.

Figure 2-2 shows the relationships between the three functions of Layered Paging in Idle Mode.

Layered Paging in Idle Mode Feature Parameter Description 3 Subscriber Information Recording

3 Subscriber Information Recording

When the RRC connection of a UE in idle mode is released, the Layered Paging in Idle Mode
feature enables the RNC to record the UE's subscriber information (including the subscriber
identifier and the information about the last camped-on cell) in a UE location information table.

In areas where a large number of UEs move at high speeds (for example, highways), the first-
layer paging is prone to failure and accordingly the second-layer paging is triggered. You can
add cells in such areas to the cell blacklist for Layered Paging in Idle Mode to prevent first-layer
paging failures and consequent decreases in feature benefits. If the UE to be paged camps on a
blacklisted cell, the RNC does not record the UE's subscriber information in the UE location
information table.

When the UE performs an LA update or the RNC reassigns the UE a temporary mobile subscriber
identity (TMSI), the RNC updates the UE's subscriber information.

4 Layered Paging

If the last camped-on cell of a UE can be found in the UE location information table, Layered
Paging in Idle Mode enables the RNC to perform layered paging to shrink the paging area.

Layered paging works as follows:

1. The RNC first pages a UE in idle mode in the last camped-on cell and the cell's neighboring
cells under the same RNC.
2. If the RNC does not receive any response from the UE at the expiry of the layered paging
timer, the RNC pages the UE in the entire LA or RA.

If the last camped-on cell is not found in the UE location information table, the RNC directly
pages the UE in the entire LA or RA.

Figure 4-1 shows the process of layered paging.

Layered Paging in Idle Mode Feature Parameter Description 4 Layered Paging

Layered paging works as follows:

1. Upon receiving a paging message from the Iu interface, the RNC determines whether to
perform layered or conventional paging.
l If layered paging is determined, the RNC proceeds to step 2.
l If conventional paging is determined, the RNC proceeds to step 3.
The RNC determines to perform layered paging when the following conditions are met:
l The license controlling this feature has been activated.
l The UE to be paged is in idle mode.
l The IDLE_LAYERED_PAGING_RT_SWITCH (for real-time services) or
IDLE_LAYERED_PAGING_NRT_SWITCH (for non-real-time services) is turned
on or both of them are turned on, depending on the type of service the UE is processing
l The UE's subscriber information can be found in the UE location information table.
l The last camped-on cell of the UE is not on the cell blacklist for Layered Paging in Idle
Mode.
NOTE

Services can be classified into the following types:


l Real-time services: These services can be further classified into CS services, PS conversational
services, and PS streaming services. When a paging process is triggered for real-time services,
the paging cause can be Terminating Conversational Call or Terminating Streaming Call.
l Non-real-time services: These services can be further classified into PS best effort (BE) services
and short message services. When a paging process is triggered for non-real-time services, the
paging cause can be Terminating Interactive Call, Terminating Background Call, Terminating
Low Priority Signalling, Terminating High Priority Signalling, and so on, except for Terminating
Conversational Call and Terminating Streaming Call.
2. Based on the information in the UE location information table, the RNC determines the
paging area for the first-layer paging. Then, the RNC pages the UE by sending a PAGING
TYPE 1 message to the paging area and starts the layered paging timer. The paging area
for the first-layer paging covers the last camped-on cell and the cell's neighboring cells
(including intra- and inter-frequency neighboring cells) under the same RNC.
l If the RNC receives an RRC CONNECTION REQUEST message from the UE, the
first-layer paging succeeds. Then, the RNC stops the layered paging timer, and the
paging process is complete.
l If the RNC does not receive a paging response from the UE at the expiry of the layered
paging timer, the first-layer paging fails. Then, the RNC proceeds to step 3.
3. The RNC performs conventional paging as follows:
l If the UE to be paged is not in idle mode, the RNC sends:
l A PAGING TYPE 1 message to the related cells or URA when the UE is in the
CELL_PCH or URA_PCH state.
l A PAGING TYPE 2 message to the related cells when the UE is in the CELL_FACH
or CELL_DCH state.
l If the UE is in idle mode, the RNC sends a PAGING TYPE 1 message to the cells in
the entire LA or RA.

NOTE

The following formula is used to calculate the length of the previously mentioned layered paging timer
whose unit is ms:
Length of the layered paging timer = 2a x 10 + 360
where the value of a varies in the following scenarios:
l If the paging message from the CN contains the information element (IE) DRX Cycle Length
Coefficient:
l CS paging: The value of a is equal to the smaller of DRXCycleLenCoef(BSC6900,BSC6910) in
the ADD UCNDOMAIN command and DrxCycleLenCoef(BSC6900,BSC6910) in the SET
UFRC command.
l PS paging: The value of a is equal to the value of the IE DRX Cycle Length Coefficient.
l If the paging message from the CN does not contain the IE DRX Cycle Length Coefficient:
CS or PS paging: The value of a is equal to the smaller of DRXCycleLenCoef in the ADD
UCNDOMAIN command and DrxCycleLenCoef in the SET UFRC command.

Layered Paging in Idle Mode Feature Parameter Description 5 Management of Aged Subscriber Information

5 Management of Aged Subscriber


Information

Due to UE mobility, if subscriber information in the UE location information table is not updated
for a long period of time, UEs in idle mode may have left their last camped-on cells and related
neighboring cells under the same RNC. As a result, the first-layer paging success rate decreases.
Therefore, the RNC must perform aging management on subscriber information in the UE
location information table. The UsrLocInfoAgingTmr(BSC6900,BSC6910) parameter
specifies the length of the aging timer. If a UE in idle mode does not interact with the RAN
before the timer expires, the RNC removes the UE's subscriber information from the UE location
information table.

8 Engineering Guidelines

8.1 When to Use Layered Paging in Idle Mode


You are advised to use Layered Paging in Idle Mode for non-real-time services first when the
following conditions are met:

l The Uu-interface paging load on a live network is heavy (the PCH usage exceeds 60%).
l The Uu-interface paging load of UEs in idle mode exceeds 20% of the total Uu-interface
paging load.

If the second-layer paging is initiated because the first-layer paging fails, the end-to-end service
establishment delay increases. The increased delay does not affect the experience of users
processing non-real-time services because they are insensitive to service establishment delays.

You can use this feature for real-time services if the paging congestion is still severe and users
are insensitive to real-time service delays.

If some cells cover areas where a large number of UEs move at high speeds, you can add these
cells to the cell blacklist for Layered Paging in Idle Mode.

8.2 Required Information


Before activating this feature, collect the following information:

l PCH usage
PCH usage = VS.UTRAN.AttPaging1/(SP x 100 x 5)
where SP is the measurement period of the VS.UTRAN.AttPaging1 counter and is
measured in seconds.
l Proportion of the Uu-interface paging load of UEs in idle mode to the total Uu-interface
paging load
Proportion of the Uu-interface paging load of UEs in idle mode to the total Uu-interface
paging load = (VS.UTRAN.Paging1.Att.Idle.CS + VS.UTRAN.Paging1.Att.Idle.PS)/
(VS.UTRAN.AttPaging1)
This proportion is proportional to the amount of reduced Uu-interface paging load.

Layered Paging in Idle Mode Feature Parameter Description 8 Engineering Guidelines

l Information about cells covering areas where a large number of UEs move at high speeds
Collect the information based on the site engineering parameter settings or the local cell
configurations.
l Multicarrier networking strategy
Obtain the strategy based on the configurations of the target network.
Assume that the target network has the following configurations:
Service steering is enabled.
Frequencies F1 and F2 are configured, where F1 preferentially carries R99 services,
and F2 preferentially carries High Speed Packet Access (HSPA) services.
UEs in idle mode are allowed to camp on the cell (named cell 1) served by F1 but are
not allowed to camp on the cell (named cell 2) served by F2. Cells 1 and 2 cover the
same area.
UEs in cell 1 can move to cell 2 through blind handovers because cell 2 is configured
as cell 1's inter-frequency co-coverage neighboring cell. However, UEs in cell 2 cannot
move to cell 1 through blind handovers because cell 1 is not configured as cell 2's inter-
frequency co-coverage neighboring cell.
Then, UEs can no longer camp on cell 2 after transiting from the CELL_DCH state to
idle mode due to service releases. After they reselect cell 1, they do not notify the RAN
of the cell reselection if cells 1 and 2 are configured in one LA or RA. Therefore, the
RAN still regards these UEs as in cell 2. As a result, the first-layer paging on these UEs
will fail, which decreases the first-layer paging success rate. Therefore, you are not
advised to activate the Layered Paging in Idle Mode feature in cell 2.
After obtaining the multicarrier networking strategy, determine the following:
Whether the target cell allows UEs in idle mode
Run the RNC MML command LST UCELLACCESSSTRICT with CellId
(BSC6900,BSC6910) and LstFormat specified to determine whether the target cell
allows UEs in idle mode. In the command output, if the value of the IdleCellBarred
(BSC6900,BSC6910) parameter is NOT_BARRED, the target cell allows UEs in idle
mode. If the value is BARRED, the target cell does not allow the UEs.
Whether the target cell has been configured with an inter-frequency co-coverage
neighboring cell that allows blind handovers from the target cell
Run the RNC MML command LST UINTERFREQNCELL with RNCId, CellId,
NCellRncId, NCellId, and LstFormat specified to determine whether the neighboring
cell involved allows blind handovers from the target cell. In the command output, if the
value of the Blind Handover Flag parameter is TRUE, the neighboring cell allows
blind handovers. If the value is FALSE, the neighboring cell does not allow blind
handovers.
l Location area code (LAC) or routing area code (RAC) of the RNC and the average number
of neighboring cells for each cell under the RNC
The number of cells in an LA or RA is proportional to the amount of reduced Uu-interface
paging load of UEs in idle mode.
The average number of neighboring cells for each cell in an LA or RA is inversely
proportional to the amount of reduced Uu-interface paging load of UEs in idle mode.

Timer subscriber information ages too soon. When
receiving a paging message from the CN, the RNC
cannot find the last camped-on cell of the UE in
the UE location information table. As a result, the
RNC has to page the UE in the entire LA or RA.
This reduces the benefits provided by this feature.
If this parameter is set to a large value, a UE may
move out of the last camped-on cell and the cell's

8.4.3 Initial Configuration


You can use MML commands or the Configuration Management Express (CME) to initially
configure Layered Paging in Idle Mode.

Using MML Commands


When you use MML commands, configure the cell blacklist (optional), configure management
of aged subscriber information, and activate the feature.

Step 1 (Optional) Configuring the cell blacklist for Layered Paging in Idle Mode
1. Run the RNC command ADD UUNIDLELAYERPGCELL to add a cell to the cell
blacklist. The CellId(BSC6900,BSC6910) parameter in this command specifies the cell to
be added. Once a cell is added to the cell blacklist, UEs in this cell cannot be paged using
the Layered Paging in Idle Mode feature.
2. Run the RNC MML command RMV UUNIDLELAYERPGCELL to remove a cell from
the cell blacklist. The CellId(BSC6900,BSC6910) parameter in this command specifies the
cell to be removed. Once a cell is removed from the cell blacklist, UEs in the cell can be
paged using the Layered Paging in Idle Mode feature.
NOTE

If the Layered Paging in Idle Mode feature has been activated and then deactivated, ensure that the cell
blacklist for Layered Paging in Idle Mode is correctly configured before activating this feature again. If
the cell blacklist is incorrectly configured, the benefits provided by this feature are reduced.

Step 2 Configuring management of aged subscriber information


Run the RNC MML command SET USTATETIMER. The UsrLocInfoAgingTmr
(BSC6900,BSC6910) parameter in this command is an aging timer for the subscriber
information
Step 3 Activating Layered Paging in Idle Mode
Run the RNC MML command SET URRCTRLSWITCH to turn on the RNC-level switch for
this feature. In this step, set the following switches in the PROCESSSWITCH
(BSC6900,BSC6910) parameter to 1:
l IDLE_LAYERED_PAGING_NRT_SWITCH for non-real-time services
l IDLE_LAYERED_PAGING_RT_SWITCH for real-time services
Step 4 (Optional) Configuring license items for Layered Paging in Idle Mode

----End
When RAN Sharing or MOCN is applied, run the RNC MML command SET LICENSE and
specify the Layered Paging in Idle mode-Erlang and Layered Paging in Idle mode-kbps
parameters for primary and secondary operators separately.

8.4.6 Performance Monitoring


You can use the existing RNC-level counters and the new counters introduced for this feature
to monitor the running status of the Layered Paging in Idle Mode feature.

Counter ID Description

VS.Paging1.Att1.Idle.RealTime.Cel Number of first-layer paging attempts for real-time


l services with Layered Paging in Idle Mode enabled

Issue 01 (2014-04-30) Huawei Proprietary and Confidential 22


Copyright Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.
WCDMA RAN
Layered Paging in Idle Mode Feature Parameter Description 8 Engineering Guidelines

Counter ID Description

VS.Paging1.Succ1.Idle.RealTime.C Number of successful first-layer paging attempts for


ell real-time services with Layered Paging in Idle Mode
enabled

VS.Paging1.Att1.Idle.NoneRealTim Number of first-layer paging attempts for non-real-


e.Cell time services with Layered Paging in Idle Mode
enabled

VS.Paging1.Succ1.Idle.NoneRealTi Number of successful first-layer paging attempts for


me.Cell non-real-time services with Layered Paging in Idle
Mode enabled

VS.UTRAN.Paging1.Att.Idle.CS Number of CS paging attempts of Paging Type 1

VS.UTRAN.Paging1.Att.Idle.PS Number of PS paging attempts of Paging Type 1

After Layered Paging in Idle Mode is enabled, collect the values of the preceding counters from
the live network and determine the feature performance using the following formulas:
l First-layer paging success rate for each cell under the RNC:
First-layer paging success rate for real-time services =
VS.Paging1.Succ1.Idle.RealTime.Cell/VS.Paging1.Att1.Idle.RealTime.Cell
First-layer paging success rate for non-real-time services =
VS.Paging1.Succ1.Idle.NoneRealTime.Cell/
VS.Paging1.Att1.Idle.NoneRealTime.Cell
If the first-layer paging success rate in a cell is too low, optimize the parameter settings
by referring to section 8.4.7 Parameter Optimization
l First-layer paging success rate for an RNC:
First-layer paging success rate for real-time services =
VS.Paging1.Succ1.Idle.RealTime.Cell/VS.Paging1.Att1.Idle.RealTime.Cell
First-layer paging success rate for non-real-time services =
VS.Paging1.Succ1.Idle.NoneRealTime.Cell/
VS.Paging1.Att1.Idle.NoneRealTime.Cell
NOTE

The first-layer paging success rate for an RNC involves all cells enabled with this feature under the RNC.
However, some of them can be excluded if the value of VS.Paging1.Att1.Idle.RealTime.Cell or
VS.Paging1.Att1.Idle.NoneRealTime.Cell for these cells is 0.

If the first-layer paging success rate for an RNC is too low (for example, lower than 65%),
optimize the parameter settings by referring to section 8.4.7 Parameter Optimization.
The benefits provided by this feature are reflected by the reduced Uu-interface paging load of
UEs in idle mode.
l Use the following formula to calculate the absolute reduced load for an RNC enabled with
this feature:
Absolute reduced Uu-interface paging load of UEs in idle mode =
(VS.UTRAN.Paging1.Att.Idle.CS + VS.UTRAN.Paging1.Att.Idle.PS) before Layered

Issue 01 (2014-04-30) Huawei Proprietary and Confidential 23

WCDMA RAN
Layered Paging in Idle Mode Feature Parameter Description 8 Engineering Guidelines

Paging in Idle Mode is enabled (VS.UTRAN.Paging1.Att.Idle.CS +


VS.UTRAN.Paging1.Att.Idle.PS) after Layered Paging in Idle Mode is enabled
l Use the following formula to calculate the relative reduced load for the RNC:
Relative reduced Uu-interface paging load of UEs in idle mode = (
(VS.UTRAN.Paging1.Att.Idle.CS + VS.UTRAN.Paging1.Att.Idle.PS) before Layered
Paging in Idle Mode is enabled (VS.UTRAN.Paging1.Att.Idle.CS +
VS.UTRAN.Paging1.Att.Idle.PS) after Layered Paging in Idle Mode is enabled)/
(VS.UTRAN.Paging1.Att.Idle.CS + VS.UTRAN.Paging1.Att.Idle.PS) before Layered
Paging in Idle Mode is enabled

8.4.7 Parameter Optimization


If some cells cover areas where a large number of UEs move at high speeds (for example,
highways or railways), the first-layer paging success rate in these cells may be lower than 50%.
The cell-level Layered Paging in Idle Mode feature can be disabled in these cells.After
deactivation in this area, there is no initiation of second layer paging due to failure of first layer
paging and the E2E delay of UEs in this area does not increase due to layered paging. But the
benefit decreases because the reduced paging load decreases.

For details about how to disable the feature in these cells, see the "Configuring the cell blacklist
for Layered Paging in Idle Mode" section in 8.4.3 Initial Configuration.

If the first-layer paging success rate for an RNC is too low (for example, lower than 65%), you
can increase the rate by reducing the value of the UsrLocInfoAgingTmr(BSC6900,BSC6910)
parameter at the RNC.

causes the compatible problem. if UE is not consistent
on SPI
with RNC regarding whether accept the CR2284R1 or
Weight
not, it will cause the problem of streaming when UEs
are communicating with each other. So RNC creates this
switch. when it is checked, RNC is auto-adaptive to
accept the CR2284R1 according to UE version
information. The principles that RNC judges UE
whether to accept the CR2284R1 are as follows: R5 and
above UE accepts the CR; R99/R4 UE, if it receives the
START LIST value from RB SETUP
COMPLETE,RNC figures that UE accepts the CR;
R99/R4 UE, if it only receives the START value from
RB SETUP COMPLETE,RNC figures that UE does not
accept the CR; when it is not checked, whether RNC
accept the CR or not is according to
CR2284R1_SWITCH. The relations between these two
switches CR2284R1_SWITCH and
CR2284R1_COMPATIBLE_SWITCH are as follows:
