✦ Synopsis

This paper discusses the interaction between high speed downlink packet access (HSDPA) and high speed uplink packet access (HSUPA) scheduling algorithms running in the Node B and other resource management algorithms in the radio network controller (RNC), which are still required to satisfy user-perceived quality. We investigate the effect of load sharing with legacy dedicated channel transmission, and discuss load control algorithms suitable for HSDPA and HSUPA packet transmission. The main concepts of resource allocation are discussed together with results obtained from a dynamic system simulator developed by Alcatel-Lucent.
