Purpose of uplink power control




Uplink transmission character


Self-interference Capacity is limited by interference Near-far effect Fading

Uplink power control


Ensure uplink quality with minimum transmission power Decrease interference to other UE, and increase capacity Solve the near-far effect Save UE transmission power

Downlink transmission character


Interference among different subscribers since the orthogonality is influenced by transmission environment Interference from other adjacent cells Downlink capacity is limited by NodeB transmission power(DL power congestion) Fading

Downlink power control


Ensure Downlink quality with minimum transmission power Decrease interference to other cells, and increase capacity Save NodeB transmission power

Open loop Power Control Overview




Purpose
UE estimates the power loss of signals on the propagation path by measuring the downlink channel signals, then calculates the transmission power of the uplink channel

principle
Path loss of the uplink channel is related to path loss of the downlink channel

Open loop Power Control Overview




Disadvantage
This power control method is not accurate as their 190MHZ between uplink and downlink

Application scenarios
In a cell, signal fading caused by fast fading is usually more serious than that caused by propagation loss open loop power control is applied only at the beginning of connection setup, generally in setting the initial power value

Open loop Power Control of PRACH




The initial value of PRACH power is set through open loop power control

Preamble_Initial_Power = PCPICH DL TX power - CPICH_RSCP + UL interference + Constant Value

Parameter Power Offset Pp-m Constant Value PRACH Power Ramp Step Preamble Retrans Max

Parameter meaning The power offset of the last access preamble and message control part. This value plus the access preamble power is the power of the control part This parameter is the correction constant used for the UE to estimate the initial transmission power of PRACH according to the open loop power This parameter is the ramp step of the preamble power when the UE has not received the capture indication from NodeB This parameter is the permitted maximum preamble repeat times of the UE within a preamble ramp cycle 10

open loop power control overview




The characteristics of open loop power control


The results from open loop power control are not accurate enough open loop power control can only decide the initial power

The advantages of open loop power control


Guarantee the QoS Decrease the interference Increase the system capacity
