maximumTranmissionpower parameter

[joe100]

Dear Forumers,

I know that maximumTranmissionpower is the total power allowable for downlink channel.

what is the limiting factor for this parameter? If it happen that certain cell is lack of DL power, can I simply increase this parameter in order to solve the lack of DL power?

What is the difference between maxdlpowercapability (cell level parameter)?

THank you.

maxDlPowerCapability parameter is set in NodeB. It's read-only parameter, so you can't change it. It shows the real maximum DL power which RBS can provide. maximumTransmissionPower is defined on RNC level. It is used in Capacity Management, so it limits DL power by the level selected by operator.
