Document Title: How to Calculate PDCP Layer Average Throughput Security

in LTE TDD; Level:Internal

Scenario: Customer X in Country Y had inquired about how to calculate the average DL/UL
throughput of a QCI9 user using the M2000 Performance Counters.

Equipment:
enodeB is on SingleRAN V100R002 (BTS3900 V100R008C00SPC140)

Wimax is on V300R005C00SPC100 + SPH120

M2000 is on V200R013C00SPC200

Solution:
Huawei always monitors the following KPI on Traffic Throughput. The calculation can be seen as :

User DL PDCP Layer User UL PDCP Layer

Cell DL Average Cell UL Average
Average Average
Throughput(Mbps) Throughput(Mbps)
Throughput(Mbps) Throughput(Mbps)

Cell DL Average Throughput (Mbps) =∑L.Thrp.bits.DL / ∑L.Thrp.Time.Cell.DL / 1000000

Wherein:

1526728261 L.Thrp.bits.DL Total downlink traffic volume for PDCP SDUs in a cell

1526728232 L.Thrp.Time.Cell.DL Total duration of downlink data transmission in a cell

Cell UL Average Throughput (Mbps) =∑L.Thrp.bits.UL / ∑L.Thrp.Time.Cell.UL / 1000000

Wherein:

1526728259 L.Thrp.bits.UL Total uplink traffic volume for PDCP SDUs in a cell

1526728233 L.Thrp.Time.Cell.UL Total duration of uplink data transmission in a cell

Counter Reference file for the actual counter descriptions.

If you will only calculate for User DL / UL PDCP Layer Average Throughput (Mbps) in QCI9,

then the following calculation will apply:
