1 Overview

1.1 Background
In the field of mobile broadband, the LTE emerges rapidly in recent years. In 2008, the
mainstream operators, such as Vodafone, China Mobile, China Unicom, China Telecom,
Verizon, and NTT DoCoMo, all claim to evolve the next generation network towards the LTE.
In addition, Qualcomm also renounces the UMB and embraces the LTE. In 2011, the LTE is
put into commercial use, launching the journey to the LTE world.
To help the user better experience the superiority of the LTE network, an increasing number
of demonstration services are rapidly performed in each office. This document describes the
common LTE demonstration services with figures and aims to provide technical service
engineers onsite with quick guide to performing demonstration services independently.

 Peak Throughput Demonstration


The single-UE peak throughput service mainly demonstrates the maximum transmission rate
for the UE and its collaboration capacity with the eNodeB. You can observe the maximum
throughput and stability of the UE with optimum channels.
The sector peak throughput service mainly demonstrates the total maximum transmission rate
of multiple UEs with optimum channels.
 Multichannel High-Definition VOD Service

2021-8-20 Huawei Proprietary and Confidential 2


Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co.,

Guide to Using the LTE Demonstration Services 1 Overview

The video-on-demand (VOD) service aims to play one or multiple high-definition videos
using the mobile broadcast business platform (MBBSP). In the demonstration, you must
check whether the video is smooth in the buffer time at the beginning and during the four-
hour process of playing the video.
 High-Definition Telepresence Meeting
The high-definition telepresence meeting is a multi-party video conference realized by a
telepresence system over the LTE network. As a new-generation high-definition video
conference system, it features real-time panorama transmission and short delay. The
telepresence system has high requirements on the channel quality and the bit error rate (BER)
must be less than 2%. In the demonstration, you must check the consistency between video
and voice, that is, the handover delay and handover bandwidth. Generally, a fixed-line UE
needs no special optimization before accessing the LTE network. However, you need to check
the handover parameters before a mobile UE connects to the network. This is because some
on-site customers may participate in the conference during the demonstration. If the video is
suspended or encounters mosaic effect, the customers will have bad impression on the LTE. In
this sense, the high-definition telepresence meeting is of major importance among all the
demonstration services.
 High-Definition Mobile Editing Broadcast
The high-definition mobile editing broadcast is an evolution in social development mode
brought by integration of the telecommunication network and the radio, film and TV network
after the LTE network is developed. This service requires a high-definition camera. The video
is delivered to the eNodeB over an encoder containing a radio module. The decoder on the
peer end decodes the video that is received and broadcasts it on the large-screen monitor. This
service features high definition and flexible mobility but large delay (more than 2s) due to the
processing of the encoder and decoder in the video transmission process. Therefore, you are
advised to place the camera out of vision of the monitor, protecting users from direct delay
experience.
 Multichannel Video Surveillance
In recent years, the video surveillance attracts more attentions. This service is specially
designed to demonstrate that the LTE brings more flexible deployment schemes and more
cost-effective implementation.
 Radio WIFI UE Demonstration
This service can be realized in a flexible method. At present, the customer premise equipment
(CPE) is connected to a wireless router, which converts the LTE signals to WIFI signals. UEs
such as the laptop, iPad, and mobile phone can access the Internet using WIFI. This service
enables users to experience high-speed Internet surfing and FaceTime services.
 Super-Speed On-line Game Playing
Currently, there are a number of methods to demonstrate on-line game playing services. One
method is to connect two computers to the LTE network over separate LTE UEs to play
interactive games together. Another method is to use the game UEs such PS3s to play
interactive games over WIFI. Normally, the game services have low requirements on
throughput but higher requirements on delay. Therefore, the demonstration process focuses on
smoothness (delay) of the game.

2 Entire-Network Optimization

2.1 UE Optimization
Generally, if it is a normal version (common version, which is described in details in the
following sections of various services), no special optimization is required. This section
focuses on optimization for the computer connected to the UE. As the computer usually runs
in the Windows XP system, the registry must be optimized. Parameters require optimization
for TCP transmission rather than UDP transmission.
Open the registry and then modify parameters in a designated path. If a parameter is
unavailable in the designated path, you need to add the parameter manually.

NOTE
To open the registration, choose Start > Run and enter regedit in the run field.

\Parameters
Name MaxBytesPerSend
Type Dword (32 digits)
Data 80000 (hexadecimal code, 512 Kbyte)
Remarks If this parameter setting is incorrect, the rate of TCP transmission on the
webpage will be restricted.

NOTE
After optimizing the parameters, restart the computer to activate the modified parameters.

In addition to the parameters included in the registration, the window size must be modified
using the following tool.
NOTE
 Tcp Receive Window: indicates the window size for receiving packets over TCP. The unit is byte.
 Window Scaling: indicates the window scaling factor. When the TCP receive window is greater than
65535, select YES.
 Time Stamping: NO is recommended; otherwise, the data transmission rate will be affected.
 Selective Acks: indicate the selective ACK packet. Default is recommended.
 MTU (on the lower right): indicates the maximum transmission unit. The MTU must be set
according to the network card. Generally, it is set to 1400 or 1460. If you are not sure which network
card needs to be modified with the MTU, you are advised to modify the MTU for all the network
cards.
 You are advised not to modify other parameters.
 After modifying the preceding parameters, restart the computer!

2.2 eNodeB Optimization


The parameters at the RLC and PDCP layers on the eNodeB need to be modified, depending
on test and demonstration requirements. Before modifying, check whether the parameters are
consistent with the following values. If yes, no modification is required. The following
commands are executed on the Web LMT.
The number of PDCCH symbols is changed to 1 in competition tests and demonstrations and
changed to 3 in commercial scenarios.
MOD CELLPDCCHALGO: LocalCellId=0, InitPdcchSymNum=1, PdcchSymNumSwitch=OFF;
(enter the actual ID of the local cell)

NOTE
 More uplink resources will be used after modification of dynamic scheduling parameters. The
original settings for dynamic scheduling parameters are recommended in a commercial network.
Dynamic scheduling parameters for competition tests and demonstrations can be modified by
running the preceding commands.
 The QCI to be used onsite can be obtained from the account registration information. If any queries,
contact the EPC account registration personnel. (Generally, the default QCI is 6.
 Querying QCI
− Method 1
Check the traffic transmission rate and QCI settings by viewing the following information
elements contained in the S1AP-INITIAL-CONTEXT-SETUP-REQ message over the S1
interface.

150 Mbit/s is recommended for


both uplink and downlink
transmission

The value of QCI ranges from 6 to 9


but the value 5 is not recommended,
because the value 5 is used for IMS
signaling.

− Method 2 (This method is applicable to Huawei UEs only.)


1. Start the OMT. Connect to the UE and disable the filtering of air messages and stratum
messages, as shown in the following figure.

2. Check the QCI level in the ESM_ACT_DEFLT_EPS_BEARER_CNTXT_REQ message


on the OMT.
The default bearer QCI is 6, as shown in the following figure.
2.3 Server Optimization
TCP optimization for a server running at Windows 2003 can be performed in the same way as
the UE. See section 2.1"UE Optimization". Start your computer after modifying TCP
parameters.
3 MBBSP Demonstration Services

Currently, LTE is in the market expansion phase, and the competition test and demonstration
capabilities play an important role. However, Huawei faces many challenges, for example,
LTE high-speed mobile broadband services are demonstrated using the third-party
commercial tools, there is no centralized service demonstration platform, service
demonstrations are complicated and unprofessional, and onsite deployment takes a long time.
In terms of onsite demonstration, the service demonstration software of other communication
companies takes precedence over Huawei service demonstration software, especially for VoD
service demonstration. Huawei is urged to learn from vendors. To be more competitive in the
product test and solution delivery and demonstration, a centralized and professional mobile
broadband service demonstration system becomes a necessity. The MBBSP, developed on the
Web, is a centralized and professional on-demand platform for real services. It mainly
implements the following functions:
 Supports login-based verification and language switching between Chinese and English.
 Sets uplink and downlink ping services and packet sizes and displays the delay and jitter
values in real time.
 Supports download-only or upload and download of FTP services and displays the
throughput in a chart in real time.
 Supports 1, 4, 9, 24, or 32 channels of VoD display, selects display resolution for various
media files, and uploads media files.
 Snapshoot nine websites on the platform using Web services and clicks the screenshots
to access the network.
 Supports on-line game playing (Need for Speed).

4.1 Single-UE Peak Throughput Demonstration


4.1.1 Overview
Single-UE peak throughput demonstration displays the maximum throughput of a UE with
optimum channels, generally including uplink TCP/UDP peak throughput and downlink
TCP/UDP peak throughput. Currently, in the demonstration, Huawei test user equipment
(TUE) is connected to the computer directly using a network cable. Before using another UE
or data card for the demonstration, check the upper throughput limit supported by the UE or
data card.
To better reflect the peak throughput of a single UE in the LTE network, the demonstration is
performed based on a 20 MHz cell. At a 20 MHz cell, the peak throughput for Huawei UE 2.0
is 150 Mbit/s in the downlink and 60 Mbit/s in the uplink. At a 10 MHz cell, the peak
throughput for Huawei UEs is 70 Mbit/s in the downlink and 30 Mbit/s in the uplink. At a 5
MHz cell, the peak throughput for Huawei UEs is 30 Mbit/s in the downlink and 15 Mbit/s in
the uplink.The peak of commercial UE is determined by the category itself, pls do the pretest
in advance.

The number of PDCCH symbols is changed to 1 in competition tests and demonstrations


and changed to 3 in commercial scenarios.

e. Uplink FTP Service


Optimize TCP parameters on the server and the PC connected to the UE as described in
chapter 2"Entire-Network Optimization", and then activate the uplink FTP services by
running the following commands in the CMD window.

CAUTION
Change the server IP address to 80.32.2.202 and change the file to be uploaded to 50m.bin.

f. Downlink FTP Service


Optimize TCP parameters on the server and the PC connected to the UE according to TCP
Troubleshooting Guide v1.0.CHM, and then activate the downlink FTP services by running
the following commands in the CMD window.

CAUTION
Change the server IP address to 80.32.2.202 and change the file to be downloaded to 1G.bin.

NOTE
pwd indicates the directory on the server. dir or ls is used to view the files on the current server. lcd is
used to change the local serving directory (for example, lcd d:\ is used to move the local serving
directory to disk D.) bin indicates the file is downloaded in binary format. Ha indicates ongoing during
the data downloading process. # indicates data downloading. get indicates that a file is to be
downloaded. put indicates that a file is to be uploaded.

If the channels are stable (for example, the SNR fluctuates within 1 dB), the corresponding
peak throughput is stable. The fluctuation of single-UE peak throughput cannot exceed 1
Mbit/s. Generally, the single-UE peak throughput in TCP transmission is about 600 Kbit/s
lower than that in UDP transmission. The following figure shows the stability of the peak
throughput (you can install the following NetMeter.rar file to view the peak throughput
trend).

NetMeter.rar
4.1.6 LTE FAQs
1. Why is the throughput generally 1 Mbit/s and cannot reach the expected value during the
uplink and downlink UDP packet transmission?
Answer: Check the following information elements contained in the S1AP-INITIAL-
CONTEXT-SETUP-REQ message over the S1 interface to view the traffic transmission rate
and QCI settings.

150 Mbit/s is recommended for


both the uplink and downlink
transmission rate.

The QCI ranges from 6 to 9.


The value 5 is not
recommended because 5 is
used for IMS signaling.

If the settings of throughout and QCI are incorrect, contact the EPC engineers to modify the
parameters.
2. Why does the throughput in UDP transmission reach the peak but the throughput in TCP
transmission cannot?
Answer: Follow section 2.1"UE Optimization" to modify the parameters on both the server
and the PC connected to the UE. For a multi-network-adapter system, ensure that
parameters for each network adapter must be modified. For some systems, the MTU
discovery switch needs to be configured. The following figure shows how to configure the
MTU discovery.
3. Why cannot the terminal implement the dual streaming?
Answer: Check whether the MIMO mode is configured correctly. Run the following
commands on the Web LMT according to the onsite situations (for example, the
demonstration is performed indoors only.) to check the MIMO mode. Before running the
command, back up default parameter settings so that you can resume the configurations after
the demonstration.

Setting the Open-Loop Adaptive Switch and fixing the TM

MOD MIMOADAPTIVEPARACFG: MimoAdaptiveSwitch=OL_ADAPTIVE,


FixedMimoMode=TM2;

The following table describes the meaning of the commands.

MimoAdaptiveSwitch A switch that is used to control the MIMO adaptive mode.


Indicates the open- and closed-loop adaptive switch. 1
means "on" (the MIMO mode can be switched between
ModeCOLoopSwitch open loop and closed loop) and 0 means "off" (the MIMO
can be in either the open-loop mode or the closed-loop
mode).
Indicates the multiplexing mode switch. 1 means "on" (the
MIMO mode can be switched between single codeword
ModeDivMuxSwitch
transmission and double codeword transmission) and 0
means "off" (the MIMO mode is fixed).
Used to control the MIMO mode in open loop or closed
FixedMimoCOLoop loop. This parameter is valid when the ModeCOLoopSwitch
is turned off.
Used to control the MIMO mode in single codeword or
FixedMimoDivMux double codeword transmission. This parameter is valid
when the ModeDivMuxSwitch is turned off.
A switch that is used to enable the fallback from double
FallBackAdaptiveSwitch
codeword transmission to single codeword transmission.

4. Why does a Huawei UE in the FDD LTE have a throughput of around 25 Mbit/s only even if
the signal is good?
Answer: Use the Probe to check whether the scheduling in the MCS is double codeword
word.

That is, code0 and code1 must have corresponding scheduling. Alternatively, check the
signaling trace over the UU interface to see whether the RRC_CONN_RECFG message
contains the reconfiguration information about TM2 and TM3.

4.2 Cell-Peak-Throughput Demonstration


4.2.1 Overview
The cell peak throughput demonstration mainly shows the total maximum data transmission
rate of multiple UEs with optimum channels.
Generally, a 20 MHz cell and one to two UEs are used in the cell peak throughput
demonstration. One Huawei UE2.0 or two Commercial UEs are connected to the 20 MHz cell
using optimum channels. Normally, the peak throughput in the 20 MHz cell is 150 Mbit/s in
the downlink and 60 Mbit/s in the uplink.

4.2.2 Prerequisites
1. Check the prerequisites. See section 4.1.2"Prerequisites".
2. Modify the number of PDCCH symbols to 1 by running the following commands:
MOD CELLPDCCHALGO: LocalCellId=0, InitPdcchSymNum=1,
PdcchSymNumSwitch=OFF;
4.2.3 Requirements and Configurations for Hardware and
Software
The configurations of hardware and software required in the cell peak throughput
demonstration are similar to those of the single-UE peak through demonstrations. The only
difference lies in the rule that the number of UEs and PCs depends on the number of the
subscribers.

4.2.4 Recommended Network Topology

4.2.5 Procedure
Follow the single-UE commissioning method to have UE 1 access the network and reach the
peak throughput, and then have UE 2 access the network and reach the peak throughput.

Test Procedure
When a UE connects to the network, the Iperf tool on the PC connected to the UE acts as the
client and the Iperf tool on the packet transmitting server acts as the server. Packets are
transmitted from the server to the client by UDP/TCP.
In the downlink peak throughput test, the number of PDCCH symbols must be modified from
the default 3 to 1; otherwise, the downlink MCS cannot be set to 28. In this case, even if the
value 28 is configured, a number of CRC errors occur and the throughput drops.
Run the following MML command to modify the number of PDCCH symbols.
MOD CELLPDCCHALGO: LocalCellId=0, InitPdcchSymNum=1,
PdcchSymNumSwitch=OFF;
Adjust the attenuator to have the UE position close to the center of the cell and set the
downlink RSRP to a value ranging from –75 to –80 and average SINR to about 30 dB.

Observation Method
Check the UE throughput at the application layer (the traffic volume of the network adapter
on the PC) using the NetMeter software.
NetMeter traffic volume = Traffic volume at the application layer + Size of Ethernet MAC
overhead
The throughput at the application layer on the PC can be observed by using the DU Meter or
NetMeter. The NetMeter is recommended. This is because the Netmeter calculates the traffic
volume of different network adapters and records the throughput in .txt format, facilitate
report and analysis.

Traffic Volume of Single-UE Throughput


For eRAN2.0, the throughput test is divided into UDP throughput test and TCP throughput
test by service type. The test is performed by transmitting packets through the Iperf tool.
However, according to the experiences of other product lines and subscribers, data download
by TCP or FTP is recommended for all the throughput tests in eRAN2.1.
Observe the test result of the cell peak throughput using the NetMeter. Ensure that the traffic
volume is stable and investigate the cause in the case of sharp drop or fluctuation

Traffic Volume of Cell Peak Throughput


a. The downlink throughput of one UE in the cell can reach the peak and the MSC remains
at 28.
b. The throughput displayed in the test result of the NetMeter on the client is about 148
Mbit/s.

Troubleshooting for TCP Peak Throughput


TCP services include file upload or download by FTP in the DOS window, packet
transmission by TCP using the Iperf in the DOS window, file upload or download using other
FTP tools in the IE window, and email service. Common problems in TCP transmission
include a throughput that is stable but rather lower than that of the UDP transmission, sharp
throughput fluctuation, and interrupted data transmission.
a. The traffic volume for TCP packet transmission reaches only 3 or 4 Mbit/s.
Answer: This problem happens when the TCP window parameters fail to be modified. Check
whether the parameters for peak throughput test are complete and the TCP window-related
parameters are configured correctly.
b. The traffic volume for uplink TCP transmission fluctuates.
Answer: check whether the traffic volume for uplink UDP transmission is stable and
successful; if not stable, adjust the quality of the uplink channel or SINR measurement mode.
Then, check whether there is an uplink pre-scheduling function. If this function exists but is
not enabled, enable this function. If the uplink pre-scheduling function does not exist, enable
the fixed scheduling function.
c. The traffic volume for downlink TCP transmission fluctuates.
Answer: check whether the traffic volume for downlink UDP transmission is stable and
successful; if not stable, adjust the quality of the downlink channel or SINR measurement
mode.
Then, check whether the traffic volume for uplink UDP transmission is stable and successful;
if not stable, adjust the quality of the uplink channel or SINR measurement mode.
Finally, check whether the uplink pre-scheduling function is enabled. If this function exists
but is not enabled, enable this function. If the uplink pre-scheduling function does not exist,
enable the fixed scheduling function.
d. Some UEs cannot reach the peak throughput due to some unused radio bearers.
Answer: Check whether the number of PDCCH symbols and CCE proportion required in the
uplink scheduling of a subframe is sufficient for all UEs If not, modify the number of symbols
or CCE proportion by running the commands on the LMT.
Note that change to the number of symbols may affect the downlink traffic volume.
e. The uplink traffic volume reaches about 10 Mbit/s only. It is stable but cannot reach the
peak.
Answer: IF the traffic volume for both uplink and downlink UDP transmission reaches the
peak but the traffic volume for uplink TCP transmission is stable at about 10 Mbit/s only,
check whether the TCP window size among the TCPIP parameters in the registry on the PC
connected to the UE is configured correctly.
f. The throughput is stable but the peak throughput is small.
Answer: This problem generally happens due to a small receiving window size, a small
transmitting window size, or insufficient reverse traffic volume. To investigate the cause,
perform the following operations:
1. Check whether this is a TCP problem.
When a problem happens in TCP transmission, check the UDP transmission to check whether
the same problem occurs. If the same problem occurs, check the UDP transmission to identify
the cause and find a solution. Then, use the resolution to address the TCP problem. If the UDP
transmission has no problem, go to step 2.
2. Check whether this is a TCP single-thread problem.
Check whether the FTP server application is installed on the transmitting computer. If the FTP
server application is installed or other similar applications are installed, uninstall these
applications, restart the computer, and then install the IIS application delivered with the
system. After installation, perform file download in one DOS window to see whether the
problem still exists.
If the problem remains or deteriorates, perform TCP transmission in two DOS windows to see
whether the throughput is improved. If the throughput is improved, this is a TCP single-thread
problem and you can go to step 3. If the throughput is not improved, this is a non-TCP single-
thread problem and you can go to step 4.
3. Troubleshoot a TCP single-thread problem.
Use the following tool to modify the registry parameters on the laptop connected to the UE
and the server. Then, start the computer.
TCP Parameter
Modification Tool.rar

If the problem remains after the computer is restarted, start the Ethereal or Wireshark capture
tool on both the transmitting and receiving sides, and then perform TCP single-thread
transmission. Ensure that the link-establishing TCP packet can be traced. The tracing duration
is about 10s. Compress and send the data that is traced to Huawei headquarters for analysis.
4. Troubleshoot a non-TCP single-thread problem.
Perform UDP transmission in a reverse direction and check whether the throughput is normal.
For example, if the downlink TCP transmission encounters a problem, perform uplink UDP
transmission to check whether the uplink traffic volume is stable and has at least 40 bytes in
MTU more than the downlink traffic volume. The default MTU is 1500 bytes. When the
downlink traffic volume reaches 50 Mbit/s, the uplink traffic volume is at least 1.33 Mbit/s. If
the uplink traffic volume is unstable or insufficient, identify the uplink UDP problem and find
a solution. Then, use the resolution to address the TCP problem.
If the throughput in the UDP transmission along the reverse direction is normal, start the
Ethereal or Wireshark capture tool on both the transmitting and receiving sides, and then
perform TCP single-thread transmission. Ensure that the link-establishing TCP packet can be
traced. The tracing duration is about 10s. Compress and send the data that is traced to Huawei
headquarters for analysis.
5. The throughput fluctuates sharply.
Answer: This problem usually happens when the block error ratio (BLER) over the air
interface is high or changes sharply, the uplink dynamic scheduling is enabled during the
downlink transmission, or the TCP layer encounters packet loss.
To identify the problem, perform the following operations:
1. See steps 1 to 4 in problem 6.
6. Check whether packet loss occurs in the TCP transmission.
Enable the tracing function of the Ethereal on the transmitting or receiving side and then enter
the tcp.analysis.duplicate_ack in the Filter box (no quotation mark is allowed). If the digit
following the # under the TCP Dup ACK contained in the filter results, as shown in the
following figure, is equal to or greater than 2, it indicates that some packets get lost. If the
digit following the # is 1, there is no packet loss. The following figure shows that the digit
following the # reaches 5, the packet loss occurs (the times of Dup ACK packet loss).

If there is no packet loss, start the Ethereal or Wireshark capture tool on both the transmitting
and receiving sides, and then perform TCP single-thread transmission. Ensure that the link-
establishing TCP packet can be traced. The tracing duration is about 10s. Compress and send
the data that is traced to Huawei headquarters for analysis.
If there is packet loss, perform packet capture using the Ethereal or Wireshark over the
mirroring port on the switch connected over the S1 interface. Then, compress and send the
data that is traced to Huawei headquarters for analysis. The method of packet capture over the
mirroring port varies depending on the type of the switch. For details, contact the EPC
maintenance personnel or customer service personnel on site.
a. The data transmission is interrupted.
Answer: To identify this problem, perform the following operations:
1. Check whether this is a TCP problem.
When a problem happens in TCP transmission, check the UDP transmission to see whether
the same problem occurs. If yes, check the UDP transmission to identify the cause and find a
solution. Then, troubleshoot the TCP transmission. If the UDP transmission has no problem,
go to step 2.
7. Modify the MTU.
Use the following DRTCP tool to modify the MTU on the network adapter of the laptop
connected to the UE to 1400; then, restart the computer.

DRTCP.exe

If this method fails to troubleshoot this problem, start the Ethereal or Wireshark capture tool
on both the transmitting and receiving sides, and then compress and send the data that is
traced to Huawei headquarters for analysis.

4.5 Multi-Channel Video Surveillance Demonstration


4.5.1 Overview
In recent years, video surveillance has been widely used in various scenarios such as families,
enterprises, and mines. With increasing use of surveillance cameras, cost-effective and easy-
for-operation cameras are most wanted. Especially in public places such as squares, streets,
and some harsh areas, construction and wire connection for camera installation are
complicated. In some areas, several kilometers of video cables or network cables need to be
connected. The long-distance cable brings a high cost. In addition, to decrease signal
attenuation due to long distance, additional relay devices must be installed, therefore bringing
another cost increase. If the transmission encounters a problem, it is difficult for maintenance
personnel to identify the cause along several kilometers of cables.
Therefore, this demonstration is specially designed to highlight the evolutions that the LTE
brings to the surveillance field. In LTE, any place with signals can be monitored. The only
requirement is one camera and one radio module, simple in installation, cost-effective, and
highly maintainable. In addition, the high throughput in LTE ensures that the radio
surveillance video is as good as that transmitted over cables.

4.5.2 Prerequisites
a. The radio UE connected to the camera can ping the surveillance server connected to the
EPC, and the other way round.
b. Good channel quality; initial conditions for downlink channels: –65 < RSRP < –90 (–80

4.6.5 Procedure
Connecting the WIFI UE to the LTE aims to visit the Internet by using LTE bearers.
Therefore, the prerequisite is proper connection between the LTE network and the internet,
where the key work is to connect the EPC to the Internet properly. The wireless network
elements (NEs) can access the Internet as long as the EPC is connected properly. For details
about commissioning on the EPC, contact the EPC technical support personnel. The wireless
NEs need to obtain the following information from the EPC: UE IP address, subnet mask,
gateway, and DNS.
Before the wireless NEs connect to the router, ensure that the wireless NEs are commissioned
successfully, that is, the UE is connected to the PC, and you can visit the Internet from the PC.
When commissioning for the EPC is successful, you can visit the Internet after configuring
the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS.
After commissioning the UE using the PC, connect the wireless router to the UE. The
configuration interface for the wireless router varies depending on the manufacturer.
However, the operation procedures are the same as follows:
a. Connect to the network by using fixed IP addresses.
b. Configure the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS
c. Set the account and password of the router. (Password can be neglected but you are
advised to set a password to prevent unauthorized access from affecting the
demonstration.
