BLOCK A
Task To identify area where RSCP is less than 95 dBm and to optimize the coverage of that affected area Reason Area where RSCP is less than 95 dBm and poor Ec/No value would be consider coverage problematic area or has poor coverage This would lead to call set up failure, HO failure, drop call and degradation to the PS throughput Items required for analysis RSCP and Ec/No plots for best server on map Plot of RSCP vs Ec/No to have quick understanding of the problem Measurement log files Solution Up-tilting, panning and height of antenna changes Increase CPICH power Antenna type changing to a higher gain Check missing neighbors Use NetAct to check coverage prediction by changing the inputs of the site Use the MapInfo/UMTS tool for antenna tilting to estimate coverage improvement (optional)

BLOCK B
Tasks To identify area which RSCP > -95 dBm but Ec/No < -10 dB and to optimize the affected area Reasons In this area problems are more on the dominance and pilot pollution This would lead to call set up failure, HO failure, drop call and degradation to the PS throughput Items required for analysis Plots of Ec/No and RSCP for best server on map Plots of Ec/No of each scrambling in the affected area Plots RSCP vs Ec/No Measurement log files Solution Down-tilting, panning and antenna height changes Increase CPICH of serving cell, decrease CPICH of interfering cells Check for missing neighbors Check co-scrambling code Change antenna type to lower gain

BLOCK C
Task To identify the 4th best server is < 6dB to the reference of best server and optimize the area Reasons To meet the KPI Too many best servers would cause unnecessary HO Wasting resources (hardware channels, Iub capacity etc) Item required for analysis Measurement log file Solution Down-tilting, panning and antenna height changed Increase CPICH of serving cell, decrease CPICH of interfering cells Use MapInfo/UMTS to generate the percentage Antenna type change to lower gain

NODE B LOADING: UL/DL LOADING (1)

Depends on the dimensioning, typically, UL Load = 50% & DL Load = 65%. Counters & KPIs that needs to be monitored.

RNC_101b = Average UL Load (in dBm) =

Call Setup Failure due to Channelisation Code congestion would be triggered in RRC and RAB call setup failure cause BTS

Possible Solution: The code tree is per cell per carrier. 1) 2) If available, go for a 2nd Carrier Add more sites (Macrosite, Microcell Site or In-building Site).

IuB INTERFACE(1)
AAL2 connections are allocated and released by ATM Resource Management which will check AAL2 reservation using CAC. M550 measurement reports RNC CAC resource usage for Iub AAL2 user plane traffic downlink

In RAS06, the new ATM Interface measurement (M532) gives indication of the ATM interface traffic load by reporting the traffic volumes and the bandwidth available for a specific interface. The measurement can also be used to detect interfaces that are congested and cause traffic loss. Congestion can be detected by following the number of ATM cells going in and coming out from the interface.

Common Call Performance Issues

Behaviour Call set-up failure & Call drop Problem Poor coverage area Description If problem is poor coverage, this means poor RSCP (<-95 dBm) thus also the EcNo degrades very rapidly (< -12 dB) when the coverage border is reached. No main server in the area, too many cells with weak CPICH level. CPICH EcNo is usually very bad even the RSCP is good e.q. RSCP 80-90 dBm but EcNo about 10 dB Bad CPICH Ec/Io (<-12 dB) level although CPICH RSCP level is good. High site in the neighbourhood may cause interference. A good usable neighbour is present within cells coverage area, can cause DL interference if it is not in the active set. Swapped sectors in WBTS. Possible solutions Check Antenna line installation (antenna position and quality, cable length and quality). Check that CPICH powers are balanced between the studied cells. Check presence of shadowing obstacles. Add a site to the area.

Call set-up failure & Call drop

Poor dominance area.

Use buildings and other environmental structures to isolate cell(s) coverage. Down tilt antennas to make cells dominant and limit effects of interfering cell(s). Check antenna bearing. Add a site.

Call set-up failure & Call drop

Pilot Pollution

Find interfering cell from Scanner results. Adjust antenna bearing and down tilt or lower the antenna height (too much tilt will break the dominance). Add interfering cell to the neighbour of the serving cell. Check scanner data and look for missing neighbours. Check the cabling in antenna line.

Dropped call/SHO failure

Missing neighbour

Common Call Performance Issues

Behaviour Call set-up failure & Call drop Problem High PrxTotal due to UL External interference Description The PrxTotal level is significantly higher than expected in no/low load conditions. Possible solutions Try to figure the possible area/direction of the interference by checking PrxTotal level on neighbouring cells. Alternatively use spectrum analyser & directive antenna to locate interferer. Inform operator/regulator about the found conditions. In case of MHA is used in BTS check MHA and cables loss parameters, otherwise PrxTotal value will be too high. (If MHA parameter is set to ON, Cable loss parameter is used, Cable loss = Real MHA gain = Feeder loss parameter) Check the antenna installation as the last alternative in high PrxNoise case.

Call set-up failure & Call drop

High PrxTotal due to wrong MHA settings

The PrxTotal level is significantly higher than expected in no/low load conditions.

Call set-up failure & Call drop

High Prxtotal due to Installation problems Bad RRC connection set-up success rate due to slow Ue cell reselection Long time interval for sync between RNC and BTS before connection

The PrxTotal level is significantly higher than expected in no/low load conditions. RRC connection set-up complete message not heard by BTS.

Cell set-up failure

Set parameters so that reselection process will start earlier: Qqualmin, Sintrasearch and Qhyst2 as per latest recommendation

Long call set-up time

The value of Parameter N312 is too high: maximum number of in sync indications received from L1 during the establishment of a physical channel

Use smaller value N312 (2, recommendation is 4).Use call set-up time optimisation feature Dynamic setting of ActivationTimeOffset (possible in RAN1.5.2 ED2) enables 200 to 500ms reduction for set up delay.

Common Call Performance Issues

Behaviour Dropped call Problem Cell suffering from UL interference = DL (CPICH) coverage much bigger than UL coverage DL CPICH coverage < UL coverage Description As the UE Tx power is not enough for target cell synchronisation, the SHO fails which will cause call drop later. Cell with lower CPICH power than the surrounding is having too good UL performance, as this cells UL cannot be used efficiently due to SHO is decided upon DL (CPICH Ec/No). The call drops due to too rapid CPICH coverage degradation for Cell A, and therefore there is not enough time for SHO. In SHO area the number of combined neighbouring cells become more than 31. HO list is created using RNC algorithm in the final stage some of the neighbours will randomly be removed. Possible solutions Use cell individual offset (negative value) parameter to balance the DL and UL coverage.

Dropped call

Use cell individual offset (positive value) parameter to balance the DL and UL coverage.

Dropped call

Round the corner effect

Use cell individual offset (positive value) parameter to balance the DL and UL coverage.

Dropped call/SHO failure

Too many neighbours

Delete unnecessary neighbours. Improve dominance.
