HSUPA - IFHO
RU20 Inter-frequency HO, i.e. compressed mode, available for HSDPA But NOT for HSUPA, i.e. compressed mode requires channel type switch form E-DCH to DCH
RU30
Inter-frequency HO, i.e. compressed mode, available for HSUPA also No channel type switch from E-DCH to DCH required any more
Less throughput degradation for user Less signaling required (no transition E-DCH to DCH in source cell, and DCH to
E-DCH in target cell any more) Faster execution of IFHO (gain of up to 1.5 s)
HSUPA - 16QAM
RU20 Only QPSK Peak data rate of 5.8 Mbps
RU30 QPSK or 16QAM in dependence on the available resources and the quality of the air interface Peak data rate of 11.5 Mbps

RU20 RRC connection is released, i.e. UE shifted to idle state RRC connection, RAB and radio bearer have to be re-established, if new data shall be
sent High signaling load introduced by UEs frequently transmitting small amount of data
RU30 RNC tries to shift UE to Cell_PCH, i.e. to keep the RRC connection and the RAB No ping-pong between release and reestablishment, if new data shall be sent
RU30 (enhanced feature) No periodic reporting in SHO area any more, but serving cell change triggered by
event 1D Better robustness for SRB on HS-PDSCH RNC sends pre-information about potential target cells during active set update already Serving cell change commands transmitted both in source and target cell

well as service class taken into account The following transmission scenarios are considered Peaky transmission Bursty transmission Continuous transmission The following service classes are considered NRT Streaming Voice 2ms and 10ms TTI (BLER targets configurable) SRB 2ms and 10ms TTI

RTWP
Time
Problem With HSUPA very short spreading codes (SF down to 2) introduced Very sensitive to inter-symbol interference introduced by time delay Maximum data rate of e.g. 5.8 Mbit/s not achieved, saturation at e.g. 4 Mbit/s even under very good signal-tonoise-ratio conditions
Linear equalization Fast convolution Obtain peak data rates closer to the limits of HSUPA 5.8 Mbit/s (2xSF2 + 2xSF4 with QPSK HSUPA 11.5 Mbit/s (2xSF2 + 2xSF4 with 16QAM)

Periodic Measurements
UE measurements RU20 provides reporting only in case of certain events, i.e. in SHO or HHO area RU30 provides periodic reporting like in GSM, independent from the situation on the air interface The following properties already known from RU20 can be reported periodically for HSPA calls
(not R99 ones) EC/I0 (any visible cell) RSCP (any visible cell) UE power The following new properties introduced by RU30 can be reported periodically for any call Rx-Tx time difference (active cells only)
UE measurements: - CPICH Ec/No - CPICH RSCP - UE Tx Power - UE Rx-Tx

Periodic Measurements
BTS measurements According RU20 reporting according slow cycle = 10 * radio resource indication period, if there is
no event Reporting according fast cycle = radio resource indication period, in case of high air interface load or strong change of load RU30 provides periodic reporting, independent from the load situation The following properties already known from RU20 can be reported Transmitted carrier power and R99 power (per cell) Received total wideband power (per cell) Radio link power (per link) The following new properties introduced by RU30 can be reported also Round trip time (per link)
