DL FSS Report

Introduction

Frequency selective scheduling considers the differences in the frequency-domain channel quality for UEs
and brings gains. The eNodeB calculates the scheduling priorities based on subband CQIs reported by
UEs and schedules UEs based on the scheduling priorities of UEs in each subband. In this mode, the UEs
are scheduled to the subbands with the optimum channel quality. As shown in Figure below, resource
block groups (RBGs) a and c are allocated to UE 1 and RBG b is allocated to UE 2 because UE 1 and UE
2 have the highest scheduling priority in the scheduling queue corresponding to the allocated RBGs.

Frequency selective scheduling requires accurate subband CQIs for scheduling priority
calculation and resource allocation. Frequency selective scheduling applies to slowly moving UEs not to
fast moving UEs, because subband CQIs reported by fast moving UEs cannot reflect channel quality
changes in a timely manner.
Parameter and Scene

Downlink frequency selective scheduling is affected by the following parameters:

FreqSelSwitch under the CellAlgoSwitch.DlSchSwitch (indicating the frequency selective
schedule switch)
CellPdcchAlgo.PdcchSymNumSwitch (indicating the PDCCH symbol number adjust switch)
CellPdcchAlgo.InitPdcchSymNum (indicating the PDCCH initial symbol number)

Application Prerequisite : Enhanced CFI adaption ON

Trial Result Summary

Performance Monitor
 MCS improve about 0.24 (from 10.30 to 10.54).
64QAM ratio increase from 23.5% to 25.5%.
 IBLER decreased from 11.55% to 11.12%
DL TB retransmission Rate decrease from 14.57% to 14.35%
 Avg User DL Throughput improve around 1.3% (0.11mbps)
Cell DL Traffic also increase 1.1%.
 DL PRB Usage Rate no significant change
 User Avg Num decreased on 11th April because of userinactivitytimer
modification. There is no significant change since FSS ON.

Proposal and next action:

Roll out to other region.
