`
`Transport channels
`
`Transport channels are the services offered by Layer 1 to the higher layers.
`
`A transport channel is defined by how and with what characteristics data is transferred over the air interface. A general
`classification of transport channels is into two groups:
`
`0
`
`0
`
`Common Channels (where there is a need for in-band identification of the UEs when particular UEs are
`addressed)
`
`Dedicated Channels (where the UEs are identified by the physical channel, i.e. code and frequency)
`
`General concepts about transport channels are described in 3GPP RAN S2.02 (L2 specification).
`
`4.1
`
`Dedicated transport channels
`
`There exists only one type of dedicated transport channel, the Dedicated Channel (DCH).
`
`<Note: WGI concluded that FAUSCH will not be included in release 99.>
`
`[There are two types of dedicated transport channel, the Dedicated Channel (DCH) and the Fast Uplink Signalling
`Channel (FAUSCH).]
`
`4.1.1
`
`DCH — Dedicated Channel
`
`The Dedicated Channel (DCH) is a downlink or uplink transport channel that is used to carry user or control
`information between the network and the UE. [The DCH thus corresponds to the three channels Dedicated Traffic
`Channel (DTCH), Stand-Alone Dedicated Control Channel (SDCCH), and Associated Control Channel (ACCH)
`defined within ITU-R M. 1035.] The DCH is transmitted over the entire cell or over only a part of the cell using lobe-
`forming antennas. The Dedicated Channel (DCH) is characterized by the possibility of fast rate change (every l0ms),
`fast power control and inherent addressing of UEs.
`
`4.1.2
`
`FAUSCH — Fast Uplink Signalling Channel
`
`<Note: WGI concluded that FAUSCH will not be included in release 99.>
`
`The Fast Uplink Signalling Channel (FAUSCH) is an optional uplink transport channel that is used to carry control
`information from a UE. The FAUSCH is always received from the entire cell.

`
`TS 25.211 v2.1.o (1999-06)
`
`4.2 Common transport channels
`
`There are six types of common transport channels: BCH, FACH, PCH, RACH, DSCH, and DSCH control channel.
`
`4.2.1
`
`BCH — Broadcast Channel
`
`The Broadcast Channel (BCH) is a downlink transport channel that is used to broadcast system- and cell-specific
`information. The BCH is always transmitted over the entire cell with a low fixed bit rate.
`
`4.2.2
`
`FACH — Forward Access Channel
`
`The Forward Access Channel (FACH) is a downlink transport channel that is used to carry control information to a UE
`when the system knows the location cell of the UE. The FACH may also carry short user packets. The FACH is
`transmitted over the entire cell or over only a part of the cell using lobe-forming antennas. The FACH uses slow power
`control and requires in-band identification of the UEs.
`
`4.2.3
`
`PCH — Paging Channel
`
`The Paging Channel (PCH) is a downlink transport channel that is used to carry control information to a UE when the
`system does not know the location cell of the UE. The PCH is always transmitted over the entire cell and requires
`inband identification of the UE. The transmission of the PCH is associated with the transmission of a physical layer
`signal, the Paging Indicator, to support efficient sleep-mode procedures.
`
`4.2.4
`
`RACH — Random Access Channel
`
`The Random Access Channel (RACH) is an uplink transport channel that is used to carry control information from the
`UE. The RACH may also carry short user packets. The RACH is always received from the entire cell. The RACH is
`characterized by a collision risk and by the use of open loop power control.
`
`4.2.5
`
`CPCH — Common Packet Channel
`
`The CPCH is an uplink transport channel that is used to carry small and medium sized packets. CPCH is a contention
`based random access channel used for transmission of bursty data traffic. CPCH is associated with a dedicated channel
`on the downlink which provides power control for the uplink CPCH.
`
`4.2.6
`
`DSCH — Downlink Shared Channel
`
`<Note: WGl concluded that DSCH control channel will not be included in release 99.>
`
`The downlink shared channel (DSCH) is a downlink transport channel shared by several UEs carrying dedicated
`control or traffic data.
`
`Two possibilities exist for the DSCH:
`
`0
`
`0
`
`the DSCH is associated with a DCH,
`
`the DSCH is associated with a DSCH control channel.
`
`It is for further study whether both possibilities are needed.
`
`4.2.7
`
`DSCH Control Channel
`
`<Note: WGl concluded that DSCH control channel will not be included in release 99.>
`
`The DSCH control channel is a downlink transport channel carrying control information to the UE for operating the
`DSCH when not associated with a DCH. Such control information corresponds among other things to resource
`allocation messages and L1 control information such as TPC, that are not available on the DSCH.

`
`TS 25.211 v2.1.o (1999-06)
`
`5
`
`Physical channels
`
`Physical channels typically consist of a three-layer structure of superframes, radio frames, and time slots, although this
`is not true for all physical channels. Depending on the symbol rate of the physical channel, the configuration of radio
`frames or time slots varies.
`
`- Superframe
`
`: A Superframe has a duration of 720ms and consists of 72 radio frames. The superframe boundaries
`are defined by the System Frame Number (SFN):
`
`- The head radio frame of superframe : SFN mod 72=0.
`
`- The tail radio frame of superframe:
`
`SFN mod 72=71.
`
`- Radio frame
`
`: A Radio frame is a processing unit which consists of 16 time slots.
`
`- Time slot
`
`: A Time slot is a unit which consists of the set of information symbols. The number of symbols per
`time slot depends on the physical channel.
`
`- Symbol
`
`: One symbol consists of a number of chips. The number of chips per symbol is equivalent to the
`spreading factor of the physical channel.
`
`5.1 The physical resource
`
`The basic physical resource is the code/frequency plane. In addition, on the uplink, different information streams may
`be transmitted on the I and Q branch. Consequently, a physical channel corresponds to a specific carrier frequency,
`code, and, on the uplink, relative phase (0 or 7:/2).
`
`5.2 Uplink physical channels
`
`5.2.1
`
`Dedicated uplink physical channels
`
`There are two types of uplink dedicated physical channels, the uplink Dedicated Physical Data Channel (uplink
`DPDCH) and the uplink Dedicated Physical Control Channel (uplink DPCCH).
`
`The DPDCH and the DPCCH are I/Q code multiplexed within each radio frame (see TS 25.213).
`
`The uplink DPDCH is used to carry dedicated data generated at Layer 2 and above, i.e. the dedicated transport channel
`(DCH). There may be zero, one, or several uplink DPDCHs on each Layer 1 connection.
`
`The uplink DPCCH is used to carry control information generated at Layer 1. The Layer 1 control information consists
`of known pilot bits to support channel estimation for coherent detection, transmit power-control (TPC) commands,
`feedback information (FBI), and an optional transport-format combination indicator (TFCI). The transport-format
`combination indicator informs the receiver about the instantaneous parameters of the different transport channels
`multiplexed on the uplink DPDCH, and corresponds to the data transmitted in the same frame. It is the UTRAN that
`determines if a TFCI should be transmitted, hence making it is mandatory for all UEs to support the use of TFCI in the
`uplink. There is one and only one uplink DPCCH on each Layer 1 connection.
`
`Figure 1 shows the frame structure of the uplink dedicated physical channels. Each frame of length 10 ms is split into
`16 slots, each of length Tslot = 0.625 ms, corresponding to one power-control period. A super frame corresponds to 72
`consecutive frames, i.e. the super-frame length is 720 ms.

`Figure 1: Frame structure for uplink DPDCH/DPCCH.
`
`The parameter k in Figure 1 determines the number of bits per uplink DPDCH/DPCCH slot. It is related to the
`spreading factor SF of the physical channel as SF = 256/2k. The spreading factor may thus range from 256 down to 4.
`Note that an uplink DPDCH and uplink DPCCH on the same Layer 1 connection generally are of different rates, i.e.
`have different spreading factors and different values of k.
`
`The exact number of bits of the different uplink DPCCH fields in Figure l (Npflot, NTPC, NFB1, and NTFC1) is yet to be
`determined. The field order is fixed. A limited set of field combinations will be defined.
`
`<Editors note: See Adhoc #7: The spreading factor for the DPCCH fields and the length (in bits) of each field is
`negotiated at connection set up. Both the spreading factor and the length of the fields may be negotiated during the
`connection through higher layer signalling.>
`
`The NFB1 bits are used to support techniques requiring feedback between the UE and the UTRAN Access Point (=cell
`transceiver), including feedback (FB) mode transmit diversity and site selection diversity. The exact details of the FBI
`field in the frame structure shown in Figure l are for further study.
`
`The values for the number of bits per field are given in Table l and Table 2. The channel bit and symbol rates given in
`Table l are the rates immediately before spreading. The pilot patterns are given in Table 3 and Table 4, the TPC bit
`pattern is given in Table 5.

`
`In each radio frame, the TFCI value corresponds to a certain combination of bit rates of the DCHs currently in use. This
`correspondence is (re-)negotiated at each DCH addition/removal. For default TFCI there is one code word of length 32
`bits. For extended TFCI there are 2 code words of length 16 bits giving the same total number of encoded TFCI bits per
`frame as for default TFCI. The 32 encoded TFCI bits are divided evenly among the 16 time slots, 2 bits per slot.
`
`Multi-code operation is possible for the uplink dedicated physical channels. When multi-code transmission is used,
`several parallel DPDCH are transmitted using different channelization codes, see TS 25.213. However, there is only
`one DPCCH per connection.

`
`RACH transmission
`
`The random-access transmission is based on a Slotted ALOHA approach with fast acquisition indication. The UE can
`start the transmission at a number of well-defined time-offsets, relative to the frame boundary of the received BCH of
`the current cell. The different time offsets are denoted access slots and are spaced 1.25 ms apart as illustrated in Figure
`2. Information on what access slots are available in the current cell is broadcast on the BCH.

`
`RACH preamble part
`
`<Note: WG1 decided to use a different spreading code scheme. An additional set of differential signatures has been
`decided. A detailed description of the preamble spreading and of the signatures is given in TS 25.213.>
`
`The preamble part of the random-access burst consists of a signature of length 16 complex symbols i1(+j). There are a
`total of 16 different signatures, based on the Orthogonal Gold code set of length 16 (see TS 25.213 for more details).
`
`5.2.2.1.3
`
`RACH message part
`
`Figure 4 shows the structure of the Random-access message part. The 10 ms message is split into 16 slots, each of
`length Ts10t= 0.625 ms. Each slot consists of two parts, a data part that carries Layer 2 information and a control part
`that carries Layer 1 control information. The data and control parts are transmitted in parallel.
`
`The data part consists of 10*2k bits, where k=0,1,2,3. This corresponds to a spreading factor of 256, 128, 64, and 32
`respectively for the message data part.
`
`The control part consists of 8 known pilot bits to support channel estimation for coherent detection and 2 bits of rate
`information. This corresponds to a spreading factor of 256 for the message control part. The total number of rate-
`information bits in the random-access message is thus 16*2 = 32. The rate information indicates the spreading factor or,
`equivalently, the number of bits of the data part of the random-access message. The coding of the rate information is
`the same as that of the TFCI, see further TS 25.212, Section 4.3.

`Figure 5: PRACH used for FAUSCH fast access slots.
`
`The Fast Uplink Physical Channel (FAUSCH) is based on the transmission of a signature of length 16 complex
`symbols i(l+j). The signature is one of the set of signatures used for the RACH preamble. Signature no.[8] is selected
`because it has the best correlation properties. Each symbol is spread with a 256 chip real Orthogonal Gold code. A time
`slot is allocated to the UE by the network when entering Connected Mode but the allocation may be updated with
`appropriate signalling. To avoid the possibility of collisions only one UE is allowed to transmit with a given signature
`in a particular time slot. Thus the UE can start the transmission of the FAUSCH at an assigned time offset relative to
`the frame boundary of the received BCH of the current cell. The different time offsets are denoted fast access slots and
`are spaced [16] chips apart as illustrated in Figure 5. To avoid possible confusion of transmissions from different UEs
`the separation between allocations of fast access slots to different UEs must be sufficient to allow for any round-trip
`delay resulting from the physical distance between network and UE. Therefore the allocation of fast access slots may be
`limited by the network to a subset of those available, depending on the deployment scenario.

`
`Sharing of PRACH by RACH and FAUSCH
`
`<Note: WGl concluded that FAUSCH will not be included in release 99.>
`
`FAUSCH uses only the preamble part of PRACH. The RACH and FAUSCH transmissions could use different Gold
`Codes for spreading the signatures, but the complexit
