Huawei Proposes Standard to Improve Mobile Brands Service at Cells-Edge

Published on:

­Huawei has announced a new proposal for the LTE-Advanced Multi-Stream Aggregation (MSA) technology standard that is capable of increasing data rates at the cell's edge.

The company said that MSA technology coordinates macro cells to improve user data rates at the cell's edge and also between heterogeneous networking scenarios to improve peak rates and simplify mobile management.

With mobile broadband systems, one of the most challenging issues is system performance at the cell's edge.

The concept behind Huawei's MSA technology is that the user is always able to receive downlink data and aggregate downlink data streams from a cell or cell group with the best signal quality. A similar method applies to uplink data, where the user always transmits uplink data to a cell or cell group with the best signal quality. The uplink data streams are aggregated on the network side.

Huawei said that it is expected that MSA technology will improve system performance at the cell's edge by almost 30%.

MSA technology is especially suitable for macro-micro HetNets. In hotspot area, macro cells provide basic LTE coverage while the micro cells provides capacity enhancement. The use of MSA technology allows users to receive controlled signaling from macro cells and services from best quality HetNet cell.
