HSUPA: High-Speed Uplink Packet Access

HSUPA: High-Speed Uplink Packet Access
High Speed Uplink Packet Access (HSUPA) is introduced in 3GPP Release 6 standards to improve the uplink UE data rate which was significantly low up to Release 5. To improve the uplink data rate some new functionality are added:

  1. New MAC entities: MAC-e/es in UE and MAC-e in NodeB and MAC-es in RNC.
  2. Transport channel: E-DCH
  3. Physical channels: E-DPDCH/DPCCH, E-HICH, E-RGCH, E-AGCH
  4. Transmission Time Interval: 2 ms or 10 ms
  5. SF = 2 can be used
  6. Fast Layer 1 transmission and retransmission
  7. Hybrid- ARQ using soft combining and incremental redundancies
  8. NodeB control grants or data rate
  9. New Frame Protocol in Iub/Iur interface (E-DCH FP)
