WCDMA
WCDMA: A high speed 3G mobile wireless technology
with capacity to offer higher data rate than CDMA.
WCDMA has the capacity to easily handle bandwidthintensive applications such as video, data, and image
transmission necessary for mobile internet services.
WCDMA was adopted as a standard by the
International Mobile Telecommunications-2000 (IMT
2000) with the intention to create a global standard for
real time multimedia services and international
roaming.
WCDMA is direct spread technology, which means that
it will spread its transmissions over a wide, 5MHz
carrier.
WCDMA is the leading 3G wireless standard in the
world today.

SPREADING CODES
Spreading code = Scrambling code + Channelization
code
Scrambling codes
Separates different mobiles (in uplink)
Channelization codes
Separates different channels that are transmitted on the
same scrambling code
Orthogonal Variable Spreading Factor (OVSF) codes
Period depends on data rate
CHANNELIZATION CODES
Channelization Codes have different length depending on the bit
rate
In the Downlink, Channelization Codes are used to distinguish
between data (and control) channels coming from the same RBS

CC3, CC4
CC5, CC6, CC7
CC1, CC2
SCRAMBLING CODES
After the Channelization Codes, the data stream is multiplied by a
special code to distinguish between different transmitters.
Scrambling codes are not orthogonal so they do not need to be
synchronized
The separation of scrambling codes is proportional to the code
length longer codes, better separation (but not 100%)
Scrambling codes are 38400 chips long
SCRAMBLING CODES
In the Downlink, the Scrambling Codes are used to distinguish each cell (assigned by
operator SC planning)
In the Uplink, the Scrambling Codes are used to distinguish each UE (assigned by network)

WCDMA Handovers
WCDMA handovers can be categorized into three
different types which support different handover
modes
Intra-frequency handover
WCDMA handover within the same frequency and
system. Soft, softer and hard handover supported
Inter-frequency handover
Handover between different frequencies but within the
same system. Only hard handover supported
Inter-system handover
Handover to the another system, e.g. from WCDMA to
GSM. Only hard handover supported
WCDMA Handovers
Soft handover
Handover between different
base stations
Connected simultaneously to
multiple base stations
The transition between
them should be seamless
Downlink: Several Node BS
transmit the same signal
to the UE which combines
the transmissions
Uplink: Several Node BS
receive the UE
transmissions and it is
required that only one of
them receives the
transmission correctly
WCDMA Handovers
SECTOR B
Softer handover
Handover within the
coverage area of one base
station but between
different sectors
Procedure similar to soft
handover
UE1
BS 2
Hard handover
The source is released first
and then new one is added
Short interruption time
