WCDMA frame structure





Physical Channels(1)

The physical channel is in a 3-layer structure by the time:

f Superframe

y One superframe lasts 720ms, and consists of 72 radio frames.

f radio frame

yOne radio frame has a period of 10ms, and comprises 15timeslots with the same length. Corresponding to 38400 chips,

it is a basic unit of the physical layer.

f Timeslot

y A timeslot is a unit composed of a bit domain, corresponding

to 2560 chips. The bit number and structure of a timeslot

depends on the specific type of the physical channel.

CPICH




CPICH

There is 2 types of CPICH:P-CPICH and S-PICH

P-CPICH:

f P-CPICH of different cell uses the same Cch,256,0 OVSF code to spread ,the bit rate

of P-CPICH is also fixed.

f The P-CPICH is scrambled by the primary scrambling code.

f There is one and only P-CPICH per cell.

f The P-CPICH is broadcast over the entire cell. it is used to search cell primary

scrambling code during cell selection procedure. And it is also used for

measurement and estimation during handover, cell selection and cell re-selection.

S-CPICH:

f A arbitrary channelization code of SF=256 is used for the S-CPICH.

f A S-CPICH is scrambled by either the primary or a secondary scrambling code.

f There may be 0,1 or several S-CPICH per cell.

f A S-CPICH may be transmitted over the entire cell or part of the cell. It is may be aphase reference for a dl DPCH, but it is decided by high layer signalling.




P-CCPCH




SCH (1)

The Synchronization Channel (SCH) is a downlink signal used for cellsearch.

The SCH consists of two sub channels, the Primary and SecondarySCH.

The 10 ms radio frames of the Primary and Secondary SCH aredivided into 15 slots, each of length 2560 chips.

Structure of synchronization channel




SCH (2)

P-SCH

f The Primary SCH consists of a modulated code of length 256

chips. The modulated code need not spreading and scrambling.

f The primary synchronization code (PSC) is transmitted once every

slot

f The PSC is the same for every cell in the system.

S-SCH

f The Secondary SCH consists of repeatedly transmitting a length

15 sequence of modulated codes of length 256 chips.

f the Secondary Synchronization Codes (SSC), transmitted inparallel with the Primary SCH.

f Each SSC is chosen froma set of 16 different codes of length 256.

f This sequence on the Secondary SCH indicates which of the code

groups the cell's downlink scrambling code belongs to.




S-CCPCH




PICH

PICH carries PI（Page Indication），SF=256，radio frame=10ms，

consists 300bits，288 bits for paging indication，12 bits Tx Off 。

PICH relates to S-CCPCH which mapping to PCH。

Cell Search

UE has to get the system information before it registers with

the network and access to services.

The system information is beared in the BCH channel, and

its data is mapped into the Primary CCPCH.

So the cell search procedure is mainly to decode the data of

P-CCPCH.




Cell search procedure (1)

The cell search is typically carried out in three steps:

Step1: Slot synchronization

f During the first step of the cell search procedure the UE uses the

SCH channel's primary synchronization code to acquire slot

synchronization to a cell.

f This is typically done with a single matched filter (or any similar

device) matched to the primary synchronization code which is

common to all cells. The slot timing of the cell can be obtained by

detecting peaks in the matched filter output.




Sketch of Slot Synchronization





Step2: Frame synchronization and code-group identification

f During the second step of the cell search procedure, the UE uses the

SCH channel's secondary synchronization code to find frame

synchronization and identify the code group of the cell found in the first

step.

f This is done by correlating the received signal with all possible

secondary synchronization code sequences, and identifying the

maximum correlation value. Since the cyclic shifts of the sequencesare unique the code group as well as the frame synchronization is

determined.

Mapping of the Secondary Synchronization Code





Step3: Scrambling-code identification

f During the third and last step of the cell search procedure, the UE

determines the exact primary scrambling code used by the cell.

f The primary scrambling code is typically identified through symbol-

by-symbol correlation over the CPICH with all codes within the

code group identified in the second step.

After the primary scrambling code has been identified, the

Primary CCPCH can be detected so that the cell specificBCH information can be read.

RACH d




RACH procedure

UE decodes BCH to find out the available RACH sub-channels and their

scrambling codes and signatures

It selects randomly one of the available sub-channels and signatures

The downlink power is measured and the initial RACH power level is set

with a proper margin due to open loop inaccuracy

UE transmits 1 ms long preamble with the selected signature

Node B replies by repeating the preamble using Acquisition Indication

Channel (AICH)

UE decodes AICH message to see whether the NodeB has detected the

preamble

f If AICH is not detected, the preamble is resend with 1 dB higher transmit power

f If AICH is detected, a 10 or 20 ms long message part is transmitted with the

same power as the last preamble
