Applicable Mode: L

DlschStrategy Downlink Meaning: Indicates the switch of the DL scheduling policy.

scheduling According to the Max C/I scheduling policy, the UE with
Strategy good-quality channels are scheduled and hence the
spectral efficiency is very high. The QoS and fairness
among users, however, cannot be ensured. The Max C/I
scheduling policy can be used to verify the maximum
capacity of the system. The RR scheduling policy is the
fairest scheduling policy. When RR is adopted, the system
capacity is the smallest. Therefore, RR is used only to
verify the upper bound of the scheduling fairness in the
system. In terms of the scheduling effect, the PF
scheduling policy is between the previous two policies.
Therefore, PF can be used to verify the capacity, coverage,
and fairness of the system. The EPF scheduling policy
supports the features such as user QoS, system capacity,
and channel frequency selection. The basic scheduling
policy is mainly used for the performance test purpose.
During common operation, the EPF scheduling policy is
recommended.
GUI Value Range: DLSCH_PRI_TYPE_EPF(EPF),
DLSCH_PRI_TYPE_PF(PF),
 DLSCH_PRI_TYPE_MAX_CI(MAX C/I),
DLSCH_PRI_TYPE_RR(RR)
Unit: None
Actual Value Range: DLSCH_PRI_TYPE_EPF,
DLSCH_PRI_TYPE_PF, DLSCH_PRI_TYPE_MAX_CI,
DLSCH_PRI_TYPE_RR
MML Default Value: None
Recommended Value: DLSCH_PRI_TYPE_EPF(EPF)
Parameter Relationship: None
Service Interrupted After Modification: No (And no impact
on the UE in idle mode)
Impact on Radio Network Performance: This parameter
specifies the switch of the DL scheduling policy. When this
parameter is set to DLSCH_PRI_TYPE_MAX_CI, UEs with
good channel quality are preferentially scheduled, thereby
achieving a high spectrum efficiency, but QoS and
scheduling fairness cannot be ensured for UEs. The
maximum system capacity can be verified when this
parameter is set to DLSCH_PRI_TYPE_MAX_CI. When
this parameter is set to DLSCH_PRI_TYPE_RR,
scheduling fairness among UEs is achieved, but the
minimum system capacity is available, and QoS cannot be
ensured for UEs. The scheduling fairness among UEs can
be verified when this parameter is set to
DLSCH_PRI_TYPE_RR. When this parameter is set to
DLSCH_PRI_TYPE_PF, channel quality of UEs and
scheduling fairness among UEs are ensured, but QoS
cannot be ensured for UEs. When this parameter is set to
DLSCH_PRI_TYPE_EPF, the channel quality, scheduling
fairness, and QoS can be ensured for UEs. It is
recommended that basic scheduling policies (including Max
C/I, RR, and PF scheduling policies) be used in
performance tests, and the EPF scheduling policies be
used in typical operating scenarios.
Applicable Mode: L

FreeUserDlRbUsedRatio Free Users Meaning: Indicates the percentage of free shared RBs on
Downlink the PDSCH in scheduling based on pay-free users and pay
RB Ratio users. The other RBs on the PDSCH are allocated to pay
users. When sufficient capacity is available, the percentage
of RBs occupied by pay-free users and that occupied by
pay users will reach the preset values. Changes in this
parameter affect the percentage of RBs for pay-free users
and that for pay users. Modifying the value of this
parameter for an active cell will lead to the re-setup of the
cell.This parameter applies only to LTE TDD cells.

MaxMimoRankPara maximum Meaning: Indicates the maximum number of layers (the
number of rank) in the implementation of multiple-input multiple-output
MIMO (MIMO) in DL scheduling.

SW_MAX_SM_RANK_2, SW_MAX_SM_RANK_4
MML Default Value: None
Recommended Value: If MIMO is not used for a cell, the
value SW_MAX_SM_RANK_1 is recommended. If 2x2
MIMO is used for a 2T2R or 2T4R cell or 4x2 MIMO is used
for a 4T4R cell, the value SW_MAX_SM_RANK_2 is
recommended. If 4x4 MIMO is used for a 4T4R cell, the
value SW_MAX_SM_RANK_4 is recommended.
Parameter Relationship: None
Service Interrupted After Modification: No (And no impact
on the UE in idle mode)
Impact on Radio Network Performance: The value of this
parameter has a significant impact on the throughput under
MIMO.
Applicable Mode: L

CaSchStrategy Downlink Meaning: Indicates the downlink scheduling policy used

CA when CA is applied, which can be basic scheduling or
Schedule differentiated scheduling. (If CA is applied in the uplink, this
Strategy parameter also indicates the uplink scheduling polity.) If the
CA basic scheduling policy is adopted, the eNodeB
calculates the proportional fair (PF) scheduling priority of
each component carrier (CC) for a CA UE using the total
data rates on both CCs of this CA UE. In this way, CA UEs
and non-CA UEs can be allocated similar number of RBs. If
the CA differentiated scheduling policy is adopted, the
eNodeB calculates the PF scheduling priority of each CC
for a CA UE using the data rate only on the primary
component carrier (PCC) or secondary component carrier
(SCC) of this CA UE. In this way, CA UEs can achieve
better performance than non-CA UEs.
GUI Value Range: BASIC_SCHEDULE(Basic Schedule),

Parameter Relationship: None
Service Interrupted After Modification: No (And no impact
on the UE in idle mode)
Impact on Radio Network Performance: None
Applicable Mode: L

NonGbrResourceRatio Reserved Meaning: Indicates the proportion of resources reserved for

resource non-GBR services. A proportion of resources is reserved
 ratio for periodically to prevent non-GBR services from failing to be
non-GBR allocated resources. During the periods when resources
services are reserved, resources are scheduled preferentially for
non-GBR services. If this parameter is set to 0, resources
are not reserved for non-GBR services.
GUI Value Range: 0~50
Unit: %
Actual Value Range: 0~50
MML Default Value: None
Recommended Value: 0
Parameter Relationship: None
Service Interrupted After Modification: No (And no impact
on the UE in idle mode)
Impact on Radio Network Performance: A larger value of
this parameter indicates a larger proportion of resources
reserved for non-GBR services. This decreases the service
satisfaction rate and the number of admitted users for non-
GBR services if both non-GBR services and GBR services
exist in the network. A smaller value of this parameter leads
to the opposite effect.
Applicable Mode: L

DlEpfCapacityFactor Downlink Meaning: Indicates the capacity factor for downlink

EPF enhanced proportional fair (EPF) scheduling. This factor
capacity affects the scheduling priorities of UEs running services
factor with the QCI of 6, 7, 8, or 9, and accordingly can be used to
adjust the cell capacity and fairness among users.
GUI Value Range: EPF_CAPC_FACTOR_1(1),
EPF_CAPC_FACTOR_0DOT01(0.01),
EPF_CAPC_FACTOR_0DOT5(0.5),
EPF_CAPC_FACTOR_2(2), EPF_CAPC_FACTOR_3(3),
EPF_CAPC_FACTOR_4(4)
Unit: None
Actual Value Range: EPF_CAPC_FACTOR_1,
EPF_CAPC_FACTOR_0DOT01,
EPF_CAPC_FACTOR_0DOT5, EPF_CAPC_FACTOR_2,
EPF_CAPC_FACTOR_3, EPF_CAPC_FACTOR_4
MML Default Value: None
Recommended Value: EPF_CAPC_FACTOR_1(1)
Parameter Relationship: None
Service Interrupted After Modification: No (And no impact
on the UE in idle mode)
Impact on Radio Network Performance: The value 1
ensures optimal fairness of resource allocation to UEs
while maximizing the cell capacity. If this parameter is set
to a value greater than 1, a larger factor results in more
RBs being allocated to cell center users(CCUs) and fewer
RBs to cell edge users(CEUs). This increases cell
throughput but damages fairness among UEs in the cell. If
this parameter is set to a value less than 1, a smaller factor
results in more RBs being allocated to CEUs and fewer
RBs to CCUs, which results in similar throughput for CCUs
and CEUs. However, fairness among UEs in the cell is
damaged.
Applicable Mode: L
RBPriMcsSelectRatioThd RB Priority Meaning: Indicates the selection ratio threshold for the
MCS function of lowering the modulation and coding scheme
Select (MCS) index to increase the number of resource blocks
Ratio (RBs) with priority for UEs running services with small
Threshold packets. If the threshold of TTIs within which downlink
scheduling is performed and RBs are surplus is less than
this parameter value, the function is enabled.The value 0
indicates that the function is disabled. The value 100
indicates that the function is always enabled.
GUI Value Range: 0~100
Unit: %
Actual Value Range: 0~100
MML Default Value: None
Recommended Value: 10
Parameter Relationship: None
Service Interrupted After Modification: No (And no impact
on the UE in idle mode)
Impact on Radio Network Performance: A larger value
results in shorter delay for small-packet services in this cell
but higher downlink interference to neighboring cells. A
smaller value leads to the opposite effects.
Applicable Mode: L

CellEdgeUserRbAllocMod Cell Edge Meaning: Indicates the resource block (RB) allocation
e User RB mode for cell edge users (CEUs) when downlink ICIC is
Allocation enabled. If this parameter is set to ALL_EDGE_USER, RBs
Mode in the current transmission time interval (TTI) are firstly
allocated to cell center users (CCUs) and then allocated to
all CEUs. If this parameter is set to PART_EDGE_USER,
RBs in the current TTI are firstly allocated to CCUs and
then allocated to the CEUs to which RBs have not been
allocated within this TTI.
GUI Value Range: ALL_EDGE_USER(All Edge User),
PART_EDGE_USER(Part Edge User)
Unit: None
Actual Value Range: ALL_EDGE_USER,
PART_EDGE_USER
MML Default Value: None
Recommended Value: ALL_EDGE_USER(All Edge User)
Parameter Relationship: None
Service Interrupted After Modification: No (And no impact
on the UE in idle mode)
Impact on Radio Network Performance: Consider a cell that
serves a small number of UEs and has downlink ICIC
enabled. If this parameter is set to ALL_EDGE_USER,
CEUs are allocated more RBs and therefore are likely to
experience higher data rates. If this parameter is set to
PART_EDGE_USER, a CEU is scheduled at either the
edge band or center band and therefore CEUs' data rates
may not increase.
Applicable Mode: L

DlIcicSchMode Downlink Meaning: Indicates the scheduling policy used when

ICIC downlink ICIC is enabled. If this parameter is set to
Schedule EDGE_USER_NO_PRIO, both cell center users (CCUs)
 Mode and cell edge users (CEUs) can preempt edge bands,
thereby improving CCUs' performance. If this parameter is
set to EDGE_USER_PRIO, CCUs are scheduled at both
the center band and the edge band only after CEUs have
been scheduled at the edge band, and therefore CEUs'
performance improves.
GUI Value Range: EDGE_USER_NO_PRIO(Edge User No
Prio), EDGE_USER_PRIO(Edge User Prio)
Unit: None
Actual Value Range: EDGE_USER_NO_PRIO,
EDGE_USER_PRIO
MML Default Value: None
Recommended Value: EDGE_USER_NO_PRIO(Edge
User No Prio)
Parameter Relationship: None
Service Interrupted After Modification: No (And no impact
on the UE in idle mode)
Impact on Radio Network Performance: If downlink ICIC is
enabled and this parameter is set to
EDGE_USER_NO_PRIO, spectral efficiency of the network
improves, but CEUs' user experience cannot improve. If
downlink ICIC is enabled and this parameter is set to
EDGE_USER_PRIO, CEUs' user experience improves.
Applicable Mode: L

RbgAllocStrategy RBG Meaning: For services whose QoS class identifier (QCI) is
Resource not 1: When this parameter is set to ROUND_DOWN: (1) If
Allocation the number of required resource block groups (RBGs) is
Strategy less than 1, the actual number of RBs are allocated to UEs
at the current transmission time interval (TTI); (2) If the
number of required RBGs is greater than N but less than
N+1 (N is greater than or equal to 1), RBs of N RBGs are
allocated to UEs in the current TTI and the other required
RBs are allocated to UEs in the next TTI. Setting this
parameter to ROUND_DOWN ensures full utilization of
RBs, but increases scheduling times and decreases
downlink data rate. If this parameter is set to ROUND_UP
and the number of required RBGs is greater than N but less
than N+1 (N is greater than or equal to 0), RBs of N+1
RBGs are allocated to UEs in the current TTI. Setting this
parameter to ROUND_UP wastes a few RBs, but
decreases scheduling times and increases downlink data
rate. When this parameter is set to ADAPTIVE: (1) If the
number of required RBGs is less than 1, the actual number
of RBs are allocated to UEs at the current TTI; (2) If the
number of required RBGs is greater than N but less than
N+1 (N is greater than or equal to 1), RBs of N+1 RBGs are
allocated to UEs in the current TTI. Compared with setting
this parameter to ROUND_UP, setting this parameter to
ADAPTIVE does not waste RBs when the number of
required RBGs is less than 1. For services whose QCI is 1
(such as VoIP services): When this parameter is set to
ROUND_DOWN: (1) If the number of required RBGs is less
than 1, the actual number of RBs are allocated to UEs at
the current TTI; (2) If the number of required RBGs is
greater than N but less than N+1 (N is greater than or equal
to 1), RBs of N+1 RBGs are allocated to UEs in the current
 TTI. If this parameter is set to ROUND_UP or ADAPTIVE,
RBs are allocated to UEs in the same way that they are
allocated when this parameter is set to ROUND_UP or
ADAPTIVE for services whose QCI is not 1, respectively.
For ping services: If the number of required RBGs is
greater than N but less than N+1 (N is greater than or equal
to 0), RBs of N+1 RBGs are allocated to UEs in the current
TTI regardless of the actual parameter setting.
GUI Value Range: ROUND_DOWN(Round Down),
ROUND_UP(Round Up), ADAPTIVE(Adaptive)
Unit: None
Actual Value Range: ROUND_DOWN, ROUND_UP,
ADAPTIVE
MML Default Value: None
Recommended Value: ADAPTIVE(Adaptive)
Parameter Relationship: None
Service Interrupted After Modification: No (And no impact
on the UE in idle mode)
Impact on Radio Network Performance: If this parameter is
set to ROUND_DOWN, all allocated RBs are fully utilized,
spectral efficiency is high, but cell throughput is relatively
low. If this parameter is set to ROUND_UP, a few allocated
RBs are not utilized, spectral efficiency is low, but cell
throughput is relatively high. Compared with setting this
parameter to ROUND_UP, setting this parameter to
ADAPTIVE does not waste RBs when the number of
required RBGs is less than 1.
Applicable Mode: L

MidUserMcsThreshold Middle Meaning: Indicates the MCS index threshold for setting the
User Mcs DL IBLER of UEs near the cell center. When the
Threshold DlVarIBLERtargetSwitch option of the CqiAdjAlgoSwitch
parameter is selected, the DL IBLER of a UE whose MCS
index is smaller than or equal to this threshold can be set
by specifying the InitDlIblerTarget parameter in the
CellCqiAdjAlgo MO. This parameter applies only to LTE
TDD.
GUI Value Range: 0~28
Unit: None
Actual Value Range: 0~28
MML Default Value: None
Recommended Value: 12
Parameter Relationship: None
Service Interrupted After Modification: No (And no impact
on the UE in idle mode)
Impact on Radio Network Performance: If this parameter is
set to a smaller value and the value of the InitDlIblerTarget
parameter in the CellCqiAdjAlgo MO is changed from 10 to
15 or higher, the average throughput of the entire network
is less likely to decrease, but also less likely to increase
greatly. If this parameter is set to a larger value and the
value of the InitDlIblerTarget parameter in the
CellCqiAdjAlgo MO is changed from 10 to 15 or higher, the
throughput of all UEs using the MCSs that can bring gains
in the throughput increases. This parameter must be set to
a proper value to maximize the positive gains in the
 average throughput of the entire network. If this parameter
is set to a too large value, negative gains in the throughput
occur at the cell center, and negative gains are more likely
to occur in the average throughput of the entire network.
Applicable Mode: L

DlLowLoadSdmaThdOffs Downlink Meaning: Indicates the isolation threshold offset configured

et Low Load for downlink low load of an adaptive SFN cell. The isolation
SDMA threshold is the ratio of the RSRP sum of working RRUs to
Threshold the RSRP sum of non-working RRUs in an adaptive SFN
Offset cell. This parameter applies only to LTE FDD.
GUI Value Range: -25~25
Unit: dB
Actual Value Range: -25~25
MML Default Value: None
Recommended Value: 25
Parameter Relationship: None
Service Interrupted After Modification: No (And no impact
on the UE in idle mode)
Impact on Radio Network Performance: If this parameter is
set to a small value and the load is low, fewer UEs enter
joint scheduling and more UEs enter independent
scheduling. Setting this parameter to a large value leads to
the opposite effect.
Applicable Mode: L

DlHarqMaxTxNum Dowlink Meaning: Indicates the maximum number of downlink

HARQ hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) transmissions. For

on the UE in idle mode)
Impact on Radio Network Performance: A smaller value of
this parameter leads to fewer radio resource overheads
caused by HARQ retransmissions but lower radio link
reliability. A larger value of this parameter leads to the
opposite effects.
Applicable Mode: L

 on the UE in idle mode)
Impact on Radio Network Performance: A larger value of
this parameter leads to a higher probability that non-GBR
services with long scheduling delay are scheduled. A
smaller value of this parameter leads to the opposite
effects.

Impact on Radio Network Performance: When certain
downlink RBs are unavailable, if this parameter is set to a
small value, the peak throughput of UEs with a high SNR
decreases; if this parameter is set to a large value, the
peak throughput of UEs with a high SNR increases but the
peak throughput of UEs with a medium SNR is low.
Applicable Mode: L

BreathingPilotAlgoSwitch Breathing Meaning: BreathingPilotSwitch: Indicates whether to enable

Pilot Switch the Breathing Pilot function. This function is enabled only if
this option is selected.This parameter applies only to LTE

Recommended Value: BreathingPilotSwitch:Off
Parameter Relationship: None
Service Interrupted After Modification: No (And no impact
on the UE in idle mode)
Impact on Radio Network Performance:
BreathingPilotSwitch: When this option is selected, the
eNodeB determines the pilot transmission mode based on
inter-cell load status to increase UE throughput. When this
option is deselected, the default pilot transmission mode is
used and there is no impact on network performance.
Applicable Mode: L

HoStaticMcsTimer Handover Meaning: Indicates the duration within which the eNodeB
UE Static performs downlink scheduling based on a low modulation
MCS and coding scheme (MCS) order in handovers. The
Scheduling eNodeB starts this timer after determining a UE has
Timer entered the handover area or has been handed over to the
target cell. The eNodeB performs downlink scheduling
based on a low MCS order during the running of this timer.
After the timer expires, the eNodeB performs downlink
 scheduling based on a new MCS order after CQI
adjustment.
GUI Value Range: 0~100
Unit: ms
Actual Value Range: 0~100
MML Default Value: None
Recommended Value: 60
Parameter Relationship: None
Service Interrupted After Modification: No (And no impact
on the UE in idle mode)
Impact on Radio Network Performance: If the parameter
value is too large, user throughput during handovers
decreases. If the parameter value is too small, the service
interruption duration during handovers may be prolonged.
Applicable Mode: L

DlRankOptimizeSwitch Downlink Meaning: Indicates whether to perform downlink rank

Rank optimization. If this parameter is set to OFF, the eNodeB
Optimize uses the rank received from a UE to schedule the UE. If the
Switch baseband processing unit determines that the received
rank is unsuitable for UE scheduling, the eNodeB
schedules the UE based on rank 1. If this parameter is set
to ON, the eNodeB optimizes the received rank and
schedules the UE based on the optimized rank. If the
baseband processing unit determines that the received
rank is unsuitable for UE scheduling, the eNodeB does not
optimize the received rank and schedules the UE based on
the rank used last time.
GUI Value Range: OFF(Off), ON(On)
Unit: None
Actual Value Range: OFF, ON
MML Default Value: None
Recommended Value: OFF(Off)
Parameter Relationship: None
Service Interrupted After Modification: No (And no impact
on the UE in idle mode)
Impact on Radio Network Performance: Setting this
parameter to ON increases UE throughput in scenarios
where ranks reported by a UE change frequently or are
unsuitable for UE scheduling. Setting this parameter to
OFF has no impact on network performance.
Applicable Mode: L

CaSccDopMeas Ca Scc Meaning: Indicates the method for measuring the Doppler
Doppler frequency offset that is applied to frequency selective
Measurem scheduling on the secondary component carrier (SCC) in
ent carrier aggregation (CA). If this parameter is set to
FROMSCC, the Doppler frequency offset is measured on
the SCC. If this parameter is set to FROMPCC, the Doppler
frequency offset is measured on the primary component
carrier (PCC) no matter whether the SCC is configured with
an uplink carrier, and then Doppler frequency offset on the
SCC is determined based on the Doppler frequency offset
measured on the PCC and downlink frequencies of the
PCC and SCC.
 GUI Value Range: FROMSCC(FROMSCC),
FROMPCC(FROMPCC)
Unit: None
Actual Value Range: FROMSCC, FROMPCC
MML Default Value: None
Recommended Value: FROMSCC(FROMSCC)
Parameter Relationship: None
Service Interrupted After Modification: No (And no impact
on the UE in idle mode)
Impact on Radio Network Performance: The Doppler
measurement requires an uplink carrier. If this parameter is
set to FROMSCC but an SCC is not configured with an
uplink carrier, frequency selective scheduling is not
supported on the SCC, and therefore throughput on the
SCC does not increase. If this parameter is set to
FROMPCC, frequency selective scheduling is supported on
the SCC, generating frequency selective scheduling gains
and increasing throughput.
Applicable Mode: L

DlSpsInterval Downlink Meaning: Indicates the downlink semi-persistent scheduling

Semi- interval. This parameter provides three values. If this
persistent parameter is set to 20ms(20ms) or 40ms(40ms), a fixed
Scheduling interval of 20 or 40 ms is used. If this parameter is set to
Interval ADAPTIVE, the eNodeB adaptively uses the interval of 20
or 40 ms. The value ADAPTIVE takes effect only for TDD
eNodeBs.
FDD eNodeBs support a fixed interval of 20 or 40 ms. If this
parameter is set to ADAPTIVE for FDD eNodeBs, the
actually effective value is 20ms.
GUI Value Range: ms20(20ms), ms40(40ms),
ADAPTIVE(ADAPTIVE)
Unit: None
Actual Value Range: ms20, ms40, ADAPTIVE
MML Default Value: None
Recommended Value: ms20(20ms)
Parameter Relationship: None
Service Interrupted After Modification: No (And no impact
on the UE in idle mode)
Impact on Radio Network Performance: If this parameter is
set to ms20, voice services have the shortest scheduling
delay. If this parameter is set to ms40 or ADAPTIVE, the
number of UEs supporting semi-persistent scheduling
increases while the scheduling delay for voice services also
increases, which probably decreases the MOS value of
voice services. If this parameter is set to ADAPTIVE, the
cell selects semi-persistent scheduling periods for UEs with
newly established voice bearers based on the load to
improve the capacity and user experience of UEs running
voice services.
Applicable Mode: L

RBPriMcsSelectStrategy RB Priority Meaning: Indicates how to apply the policy of increasing the
MCS number of resource blocks (RBs) to lower the modulation
Select and coding scheme (MCS) index. If this parameter is set to
Strategy SINGLEUSER_STRATEGY, the policy is applied to a
single RRC_CONNECTED UE whose capability is limited
(Maximum number of DL-SCH transport block bits received
within a TTI of the UE is less than the maximum TBS with
the total number of PRBs). The policy is applied to a single
service when the following conditions are met within a
measurement period: (1) this parameter is set to
SINGLEUSER_STRATEGY; (2) the service is the only
service to be scheduled in the cell; (3) the proportion of the
transmission time intervals (TTIs) in which RBs are
expected to be surplus is less than a specified threshold. If
this parameter is set to MULTIUSER_STRATEGY, the
policy is applied to the last capability-limited UE to be
scheduled. If this parameter is set to
MULTIUSER_STRATEGY and the proportion of TTIs in
which RBs are expected to be surplus is less than a
specified threshold within a measurement period, this
strategy is applied to the last UE to be scheduled. If this
parameter is set to
MULTIUSR_LOWMCSLIMIT_STRATEGY, the policy is
applied to the last capability-limited UE to be scheduled. If
this parameter is set to
MULTIUSR_LOWMCSLIMIT_STRATEGY and the
proportion of TTIs in which RBs are expected to be surplus
is less than a specified threshold within a measurement
period, this strategy is applied to the last UE to be
scheduled, and the MCS index decreases by a maximum of
3. This parameter applies only to LTE FDD networks.
GUI Value Range: SINGLEUSER_STRATEGY(Single User
Strategy), MULTIUSER_STRATEGY(Multiple User
Strategy),
MULTIUSR_LOWMCSLIMIT_STRATEGY(Multiple User
Lower MCS Limited Strategy)
Unit: None
Actual Value Range: SINGLEUSER_STRATEGY,

MULTIUSR_LOWMCSLIMIT_STRATEGY
MML Default Value: None
Recommended Value: SINGLEUSER_STRATEGY(Single
User Strategy)
Parameter Relationship: None
Service Interrupted After Modification: No (And no impact
on the UE in idle mode)
Impact on Radio Network Performance: If this parameter is
set to MULTIUSER_STRATEGY, throughput of capability-
limited UEs in and near the cell center increases, downlink
throughput also increases when the cell is lightly loaded,
the small-packet service delay decreases, but interference
on neighboring cells increases. If this parameter is set to
MULTIUSR_LOWMCSLIMIT_STRATEGY, the number of
RBs to be increased for the scheduling of small-packet
services is limited, interference on neighboring cells
decreases, downlink throughput increases in scenarios with
medium or light loads. In this case, you are advised to set
the RBPriMcsSelectRatioThd parameter to a larger value to
further decrease the small-packet service delay and
increase downlink throughput. If this parameter is set to
SINGLEUSER_STRATEGY, the small-packet service delay
 decreases and throughput increases in scenarios where a
single UE needs to be scheduled.
Applicable Mode: L

DlRankDetectSwitch Downlink Meaning: Indicates whether to perform rank detection.

Rank DetectRank2AdjSwitch: If this option is deselected, the
Detect eNodeB does not perform rank 2 detection for UEs
Switch reporting rank 1. In this case, the eNodeB performs single-
codeword scheduling. If this option is selected: (1) The
eNodeB performs rank 2 detection upon reception of rank 1
report from any UEs if whitelisted UEs have not been
configured. (2) The eNodeB performs rank 2 detection only

CellDlschAlgo MO, the StartRankDetectCntThd parameter
in the CellDlschAlgo MO, the RankDetectSuccessCntThd
parameter in the CellDlschAlgo MO, and the
RankReverseDetectCntThd parameter in the CellDlschAlgo
MO take effect only when the DetectRank2AdjSwitch option
is selected. DetectRank1AdjSwitch: If this option is
deselected, the eNodeB does not perform rank 1 detection
for UEs reporting rank 2. In this case, the eNodeB performs
dual-codeword scheduling. If this option is selected, the
eNodeB performs rank 1 detection for UEs reporting rank
2.The function controlled by DetectRank1AdjSwitch applies
to LTE TDD but not to LTE FDD in the current
version.Therefore, the setting of DetectRank1AdjSwitch
takes effect only for LTE TDD.
BfDetectRank1AdjSwitch: If this option is deselected, the
eNodeB switches between the single-stream beamforming
and dual-stream beamforming modes based on the
spectral efficiency. If this option is selected, the eNodeB
attempts to switch to the single-stream beamforming mode
when it is in dual-stream beamforming mode. This option
applies only to LTE TDD cells.

Parameter Relationship: None
Service Interrupted After Modification: No (And no impact
on the UE in idle mode)
Impact on Radio Network Performance: In the actual
networking scenarios, the rank indication reported by a UE
may be inaccurate because the interference on the CRS is
inconsistent with that in the data area and rank
measurement algorithms may among UEs. The optimal
rank can be obtained by rank detection, which helps
improve the system throughput. If the
 DetectRank2AdjSwitch option is selected, the inaccurate
rank 1 reporting by a UE can be identified and optimal rank
can be obtained, improving the system throughput and the
ratio of the rank 2 usage. The DetectRank1AdjSwitch
option setting does not take effect and has no impacts on
network performance. If the BfDetectRank1AdjSwitch
option is deselected, the eNodeB switches between single-
stream beamforming and dual-stream beamforming modes
based on the spectral efficiency. If the
BfDetectRank1AdjSwitch option is selected, the eNodeB
detects single-stream beamforming performance so that
the optimal transmission mode can be selected. In this way,
the switching between single-stream and dual-stream
beamforming modes is more accurate and throughput is
higher compared with those when this option is deselected.

In Pdcch large packets in the PDCCH and PDSCH resource
And Pdsch allocation optimization mechanism when traffic is heavy. If
Balance this parameter is set to 0, none of the bearers is
determined as a bearer with large packets. If this parameter
is set to a value ranging from 1 to 1000000 (indicating a
threshold from 1 bit to 1,000,000 bits), a bearer whose
traffic to be scheduled is greater than or equal to this
parameter value is determined as a bearer with large
packets.
GUI Value Range: 0~1000000
Unit: bit
Actual Value Range: 0~1000000
MML Default Value: None
Recommended Value: 0
Parameter Relationship: None
Service Interrupted After Modification: No (And no impact
on the UE in idle mode)
Impact on Radio Network Performance: Setting this
parameter to 0 has no impact on network performance.
Setting this parameter to a non-zero value increases the
physical resource block (PRB) usage in the PDSCH and
 downlink throughput in large traffic volume scenarios. A
smaller value of this parameter results in a higher
probability of a bearer being determined as a bearer with
large packets. A larger value of this parameter results in a
lower probability of a bearer being determined as a bearer
with large packets.

Actual Value Range: 0~10000
MML Default Value: None
Recommended Value: 10000
Parameter Relationship: None
Service Interrupted After Modification: No (And no impact
on the UE in idle mode)
Impact on Radio Network Performance: If the number of
synchronized UEs in the cell is less than this parameter
value, the network performance is not affected. If the
number of synchronized UEs in the cell is greater than or
equal to this parameter value, PDCCH and PDSCH
resources are balanced, increasing PRB usage in the
PDSCH and downlink throughput in large traffic volume
scenarios.

when the average PRB usage in an area is lower than or
equal to 30%.
It is recommended that this parameter be set to MOD3
when the average PRB usage in an area is greater than
30%.
For a network with four sectors:
It is recommended that this parameter be set to MOD6
when the average PRB usage in an area is lower than or
equal to 30%.
It is recommended that this parameter be set to MOD4
when the average PRB usage in an area is greater than
30%.
 Parameter Relationship: None
Service Interrupted After Modification: No (And no impact
on the UE in idle mode)
Impact on Radio Network Performance: If this parameter is
set to a large value, the RBs to be scheduled in a cell can
be better staggered in case of low PRB usage, which
reduces interference. However, with the increase of PRB
usage, the interference turns severe. If this parameter is set
to a too large value, the RBs to be scheduled cannot be
staggered according to the configuration due to high PRB
usage. If this parameter is set to a small value, the RBs to
be scheduled cannot be staggered and the interference
cannot be reduced in an optimal manner.
Applicable Mode: L

TxdDci1aSwitch TxD DCI1A Meaning: Indicates whether DCI1A downlink grant

Scheduling scheduling is used for UEs in transmit diversity mode. This
Switch parameter applies only to LTE TDD cells. If this parameter
is set to ON and the UE in transmit diversity mode requires
single-codeword scheduling, the DCI1A format can be used
for downlink grant scheduling, which increases the DCI1A
coverage area. If this parameter is set to OFF, the downlink
grant scheduling is performed in default mode.
GUI Value Range: OFF(Off), ON(On)

DlSchAbnUeThd Downlink Meaning: Indicates the threshold of consecutive

Schedule discontinuous transmissions (DTXs) in the downlink above
Abnormal which the eNodeB stops scheduling the abnormal UE. The
Ue parameter value range is from 6 to 120.
Threshold GUI Value Range: 6~120
Unit: None
Actual Value Range: 6~120
MML Default Value: None
Recommended Value: 15
Parameter Relationship: None
Service Interrupted After Modification: No (And no impact
on the UE in idle mode)
Impact on Radio Network Performance: This parameter
takes effect only when AbnUeSchSwitch of the
CellSchStrategySwitch parameter is on.
If AbnUeSchSwitch of the CellSchStrategySwitch
parameter is off, the DlSchAbnUeThd parameter setting
 has no impact on network performance.
If AbnUeSchSwitch of the CellSchStrategySwitch
parameter is on, the DlSchAbnUeThd parameter setting
helps decrease the residual block error rate (RBLER) and
increase cell throughput in scenarios where resources are
insufficient. A larger value of the DlSchAbnUeThd
parameter results in a smaller decrease in the RBLER and
a smaller increase in cell throughput in scenarios where
resources are insufficient. A smaller value of the
DlSchAbnUeThd parameter results in a larger decrease in
the RBLER and a larger increase in cell throughput in
scenarios where resources are insufficient. However, the
scheduling delay increases and perceived throughput
decreases for UEs in weak coverage areas.

15 MHz, or 20 MHz.
Parameter Relationship: None
Service Interrupted After Modification: No (And no impact
on the UE in idle mode)
Impact on Radio Network Performance: A smaller value of
this parameter results in a higher reliability of Random
Access Response and paging message reception and
more RBs to be occupied by the messages. If there are
many Random Access Response messages or paging
messages, the cell throughput may decrease. A larger
value of this parameter results in fewer RBs to be occupied
by the messages and a lower reliability of Random Access
Response and paging message reception, which may
cause a decrease in the access success rate and paging
success rate.
Applicable Mode: L

CqiAdjInitialStep CQI Meaning: Indicates the initial step in which channel quality
Adjustment indicators (CQIs) are adjusted for UEs that initially access
Initial Step or are handed over to the network. If the periodically

MML Default Value: None
Recommended Value: 10
Parameter Relationship: None
Service Interrupted After Modification: No (And no impact
on the UE in idle mode)
 Impact on Radio Network Performance: If this parameter is
set to a smaller value, the handover success rate
increases, downlink RBLER decreases, but downlink
throughput of UEs that initially access or are handed over
to the network may decrease. A larger value of this
parameter results in the opposite effects.

CsiRsSfSchStrSwitch CSI-RS Meaning: Indicates the scheduling policy of subframes

Subframe transmitting CSI-RSs. This parameter now includes one
Scheduling switch. UnCfgCsiRsUESchSwitch: Indicates whether UEs
Strategy that do not support CSI-RSs can be scheduled in
Switch subframes transmitting CSI-RSs. These UEs can be
scheduled in these subframes only when this switch is on.

MML Default Value: None
Recommended Value: UnCfgCsiRsUESchSwitch:On
Parameter Relationship: None
Service Interrupted After Modification: N/A
Impact on Radio Network Performance:
UnCfgCsiRsUESchSwitch: If this switch is on, UEs that do
not support CSI-RSs can be scheduled in subframes
transmitting CSI-RSs, thereby increasing the probability
that UEs not supporting CSI-RSs are scheduled and
increasing average cell throughput when the number of
UEs in TM9 is small in the cell. Turning off this switch has
no impact on network performance.
Applicable Mode: L

SfnDlLoadPeriod SFN Meaning: Indicates the period for measuring downlink load
Downlink of a single frequency network (SFN) cell. The eNodeB
Load determines the threshold for isolating UEs scheduled in
Period independent scheduling mode from UEs scheduled in joint
scheduling mode based on the downlink cell load
measured within each period. A heavier cell load results in
a lower threshold and a higher probability that UEs enter
independent scheduling mode. A lighter cell load results in
a higher threshold and a higher probability that UEs enter
joint scheduling mode.
This parameter takes effect only when the SfnDlSchSwitch
parameter is set to ADAPTIVE(Adaptive scheduling).

on the UE in idle mode)
Impact on Radio Network Performance: The proportion of
 UEs scheduled in independent scheduling mode to the UEs
scheduled in joint scheduling mode in an SFN cell in each
load measurement period is adjusted based on the
measured cell load. This parameter setting affects the
physical resource block (PRB) usage.
Applicable Mode: L

FreqSelJudgePeriod Frequency Meaning: Indicates the determination period for frequency

Select selective scheduling. If FreqSelSwitch of the DlSchSwitch
Judge parameter is off, the FreqSelJudgePeriod parameter setting
Period does not take effect. If FreqSelSwitch of the DlSchSwitch
parameter is on, a smaller value of the FreqSelJudgePeriod
parameter results that UEs meeting frequency selective
scheduling conditions more easily enter the frequency
selective scheduling mode and a higher probability that the
UEs repeatedly enter and exit frequency selective
scheduling mode. A larger value of the
FreqSelJudgePeriod parameter results in the opposite
effects when FreqSelSwitch of the DlSchSwitch parameter
is on. This parameter applies only to LTE FDD networks.
GUI Value Range: 1~10
Unit: s
Actual Value Range: 1~10
MML Default Value: None
Recommended Value: 10
Parameter Relationship: None
Service Interrupted After Modification: N/A
Impact on Radio Network Performance: If FreqSelSwitch of
the DlSchSwitch parameter is off, the FreqSelJudgePeriod
parameter does not take effect and has no impact on
network performance. If FreqSelSwitch of the DlSchSwitch
parameter is on, a smaller value of the FreqSelJudgePeriod
parameter results in a shorter determination period, UEs
meeting frequency selective scheduling conditions to enter
the frequency selective scheduling more easily, higher
spectral efficiency generated based on downlink frequency
selective scheduling, and stronger uplink interference
caused by more aperiodic CQI scheduling times that are
required by downlink frequency selective scheduling. A
larger value of the FreqSelJudgePeriod parameter results
in the opposite effects when FreqSelSwitch of the
DlSchSwitch parameter is on.

cell-load-based adaptive selection of dynamic scheduling
and semi-persistent scheduling for UEs running VoLTE
services. If this option is deselected, cell-load-based
adaptive selection of dynamic and semi-persistent
scheduling cannot be performed for UEs running VoLTE
services. If this option is selected, dynamic and semi-
persistent scheduling can be adaptively selected for UEs
running VoLTE services based on the cell load.
DlSpsRevHarqUseSwitch: Indicates whether HARQ
feedback resources reserved for semi-persistent
scheduling can be used by dynamic scheduling. HARQ
feedback resources reserved for semi-persistent
scheduling can be used by dynamic scheduling only when
this option is selected.
DlSpsDrxDecouplingSwitch: indicates whether the long
DRX cycle configuration is considered during the
configuration and activation of downlink semi-persistent
scheduling. If this option is deselected, the long DRX cycle
configuration is considered during the configuration and
activation of downlink semi-persistent scheduling, and
downlink semi-persistent scheduling cannot be configured
or activated when the downlink semi-persistent scheduling
period is not an integral multiple of the long DRX cycle. If
this option is selected, the long DRX cycle configuration is
not considered during the configuration and activation of
downlink semi-persistent scheduling.
DlSchVoipDuringHoSwitch: Indicates whether to enable
voice service scheduling in the downlink during scheduling
of handover signaling. If this option is deselected, the
eNodeB does not schedule voice services in the downlink
when scheduling handover signaling. If this option is
selected, the eNodeB can schedule voice services in the
downlink when scheduling handover signaling, decreasing
the downlink packet delay for voice services and improving
the voice service quality in handovers, especially the voice
service quality in DRX scenarios.

Impact on Radio Network Performance:
DlVoIPLoadBasedSchSwitch: If this option is selected, the
capacity for UEs running voice services is improved
compared with that when the option is deselected and
dynamic scheduling is adopted, and the transmission
efficiency is improved compared with that when the option
is deselected and semi-persistent scheduling is adopted.
DlSpsDrxDecouplingSwitch: If this option is selected,
compatibility performance with UEs is poor. The downlink
packet loss rate increases and MOS decreases for UEs
that do not receive semi-persistent scheduling data during
 the DRX sleep time. If this option is deselected,
compatibility performance with UEs is good. Downlink
semi-persistent scheduling cannot be activated when the
downlink semi-persistent scheduling period is not an
integral multiple of the long DRX cycle, and as a result,
PDCCH resources cannot be saved.
DlSpsRevHarqUseSwitch: If this option is selected, HARQ
feedback resources reserved for semi-persistent
scheduling can be used by dynamic scheduling, cell
throughput increases, delay of VoLTE packet transmission
slightly increases, and MOS of VoLTE services may
decrease when all of the following conditions are met: (1) A
UE has set up two bearers with one bearer supporting
VoLTE services and the other bearer supporting data
services; (2) The amount of data volume on the bearer is
sufficient; (3) Semi-persistent scheduling applies to the
bearer supporting VoLTE services. Selecting this option
has no impact on network performance if the first condition
described above is not met.
Deselecting the DlSpsRevHarqUseSwitch option has no
impact on network performance.
DlSpsDrxDecouplingSwitch: If this option is selected,
compatibility performance with UEs is poor. The downlink
packet loss rate increases and MOS decreases for UEs
that do not receive semi-persistent scheduling data during
the DRX sleep time. If this option is deselected,
compatibility performance with UEs is good. Downlink
semi-persistent scheduling cannot be activated when the
downlink semi-persistent scheduling period is not an
integral multiple of the long DRX cycle, and as a result,
PDCCH resources cannot be saved.
DlSchVoipDuringHoSwitch: If this option is selected, the
downlink voice packet delay decreases in handovers and
voice service quality improves, especially in DRX
scenarios. However, the number of PDSCH RBs for voice
service users increases in the source cell, causing the
throughput of the source cell to decrease.

set to CQI_PERIOD_BASED, UEs configured with a short
periodic CQI reporting period cannot trigger aperiodic CQI
reporting, the downlink data rate of such CA UEs
decreases in closed-loop MIMO mode, and uplink aperiodic
CQI reporting overheads of such UEs decrease. Uplink
aperiodic CQI reporting overheads of UEs configured with a
long periodic CQI reporting period increase. The impacts
on uplink network performance depend on the ratio of the
number of UEs configured with a short periodic CQI

mode, but uplink aperiodic CQI reporting overheads of such
UEs increase. Uplink aperiodic CQI reporting overheads of
UEs configured with a long periodic CQI reporting period
decrease. The impacts on uplink network performance
depend on the ratio of the number of UEs configured with a

corresponding to the specific train speed, downlink AFC
does not provide any performance protection in the
abnormal scenarios. It is recommended that this parameter

and negative frequency offset ratio for downlink frequency
Negative correction. The eNodeB performs downlink frequency
Freq Offset correction only when the positive or negative frequency
Ratio offset ratio of a UE exceeds this threshold. This parameter
Threshold applies only to LTE TDD cells.
GUI Value Range: 60~90
Unit: None
Actual Value Range: 60~90
MML Default Value: None
Recommended Value: 80
Parameter Relationship: None
Service Interrupted After Modification: No (And no impact
on the UE in idle mode)
Impact on Radio Network Performance: A small value of
this parameter indicates that the eNodeB is more likely to
perform downlink frequency correction when there are UEs
on trains moving in an opposite direction, and the
frequencies of such UEs are more likely to be incorrectly
corrected if they are in the minority. A large value of this
parameter indicates that the eNodeB is less likely to
perform downlink frequency correction when there are UEs
on trains moving in an opposite direction, and the
frequencies of such UEs are less likely to be incorrectly
corrected if they are in the minority.
Applicable Mode: L

UserFoThdForDlAfc Frequency Meaning: Indicates the threshold of the frequency offset of

Offset UEs for downlink frequency correction amount calculation.
Threshold The frequency correction amount of UEs whose frequency
for DL AFC offset is greater than this threshold is calculated. If no UE in
the cell has a frequency offset greater than this threshold,
downlink frequency correction is not performed. This
parameter applies only to LTE TDD cells.
GUI Value Range: 200~500
Unit: None
Actual Value Range: 200~500
MML Default Value: None
Recommended Value: 300
Parameter Relationship: None
 Service Interrupted After Modification: No (And no impact
on the UE in idle mode)
Impact on Radio Network Performance: A small value of
this parameter indicates a low minimum UE rate for
triggering downlink frequency correction. A large value of
this parameter indicates a high minimum UE rate for
triggering downlink frequency correction.
Applicable Mode: L

ZoneUserNumRatioThd User Ratio Meaning: Indicates the threshold of the UE quantity ratio in
Threshold different areas of the same cell served by multiple eNodeBs
for downlink frequency correction. The eNodeBs perform
downlink frequency correction when the UE quantity ratio in
both of the areas where the largest and second largest
number of UEs reside exceeds this threshold. This
parameter applies only to LTE TDD cells.
GUI Value Range: 0~6
Unit: None
Actual Value Range: 0~6
MML Default Value: None
Recommended Value: 4
Parameter Relationship: None
Service Interrupted After Modification: No (And no impact
on the UE in idle mode)
Impact on Radio Network Performance: A small value of
this parameter indicates that the eNodeB is more likely to
perform downlink frequency correction when a train is
passing poles where the RRUs are installed, but the
frequencies of a small number of UEs at the front and rear
of the train are more likely to be incorrectly corrected. A
large value of this parameter indicates that the eNodeB is
less likely to perform downlink frequency correction when a
train is crossing poles where the RRUs are installed, but
incorrect downlink frequency correction is less likely to be
performed for UEs at the front and rear of the train.
