    1) The document describes ANR (Automatic Neighbor Relation) management in LTE networks. ANR automatically maintains neighbor cell lists to improve handover success rates without manual intervention. 2) ANR can be classified as intra-RAT ANR within the same radio access technology or inter-RAT ANR between different technologies. It manages neighbor lists including the NCL, NRT, temporary NRT, and handover blacklists and whitelists. 3) The process of detecting a missing neighbor cell involves the source cell requesting the UE to measure neighboring cells, the UE reporting any missing cells, and the source cell scheduling periods to retrieve more information about the missing cell from broadcasts to update its neighbor lists

    ANR Management

    th
    January, 2012
    Objective
    The object of below slides is to describe the ANR management for LTE system.
    Overview of ANR
    ANR is a self-optimization function. It automatically maintains the integrity and
    effectiveness of Neighbor Cell Lists (NCLs) to increase handover success rates and
    improve network performance. In addition, ANR does not require manual intervention,
    which reduces the costs of network planning and optimization.

    Concept related to ANR
    Classification
    Based on neighbor relations, ANR is classified into intra-RAT ANR and inter-RAT ANR

    Neighbor list management

    1) NCL Neighbor cell list
    2) NRT Neighbor relation table
    3) TempNRT Temporary NRT
    4) HO Blacklist Handover black list
    5) HO Whitelist Handover white list
    6) PCI Physical cell ID
    7) Abnormal Neighboring Cell Coverage




    Neighbor list management
    NCL

    An NCL contains the information about the neighboring cells of a cell. Each cell has an intra-RAT
    NCL and inter-RAT NCLs. An NCL includes the E-UTRAN Cell Global Identifiers (ECGIs), PCIs,
    and E-UTRA Absolute Radio Frequency Channel Numbers (EARFCNs) of the neighboring cells.
    The eNodeB adds newly detected neighboring cells to the NCL.


    NRT
    An NRT contains the information about the neighbor relations between a cell and its
    neighboring cells. NRTs are classified into intra-RAT NRTs and inter-RAT NRTs. Each cell has an
    intra-RAT NRT and inter-RAT NRTs.

    TempNRT
    A TempNRT is a temporary NRT. It has the same data structure as the NRT. Each cell has an
    intra-RAT TempNRT but does not have an inter-RAT TempNRT. After detecting a new intra-RAT
    neighbor relation, the eNodeB adds it to the intra-RAT TempNRT. Then, the eNodeB regularly
    analyzes the neighbor relation in the TempNRT. If the new neighbor relation is normal, the
    eNodeB adds it to the intra-RAT NRT.


    Neighbor list management
    HO Blacklist

    An HO black list contains the information about neighbor relations that cannot be removed
    automatically from the NRT by ANR or used for a handover. The neighbor relations in the HO
    Black list must meet the following conditions:

    NO Remove = TRUE
    NO HO = TRUE

    HO Whitelist

    An HO white list contains the information about neighbor relations that cannot be removed
    automatically from the NRT by ANR but can be used for a handover. The neighbor relations in
    the HO white list must meet the following conditions:

    NO Remove = TRUE
    NO HO = FALSE



    Neighbor list management
    PCI

    A PCI is the identifier of a physical cell. A maximum of 504 PCIs are supported, therefore, PCI
    collisions occur inevitably.

    The PCI of an E-UTRAN cell corresponds to:
    The Primary Scrambling Code (PSC) of a UTRAN FDD cell
    The cell ID of a UTRAN TDD cell
    The Base Station Identity Code (BSIC) of a GERAN cell
    The Pseudo Number (PN) offset of a CDMA2000 cell

    Abnormal Neighboring Cell Coverage

    Abnormal neighboring cell coverage refers to the coverage of a cell that is not adjacent to
    the serving cell but can be detected by a UE in the serving cell. The eNodeB regards this cell
    as a neighboring cell of the serving cell and therefore attempts to add the neighbor relation
    to the NRT. The signals of an abnormal neighboring cell are generally unstable and therefore
    the success rate of handovers to this cell is low.
    Procedure for detecting a missing neighboring cell
    1) The source eNodeB delivers the
    measurement configuration to the UE
    and requests the UE to measure
    neighboring cells that meet the
    measurement configuration
    2) The UE detects that the PCI of cell B
    meets the measurement configuration
    and reports it to the source eNodeB.
    Then, the source eNodeB checks
    whether the NCL of cell A includes the
    PCI of cell B. If yes, the procedure ends.
    If no, the following steps continue.
    3) The source eNodeB instructs the UE, using the newly discovered PCI as a parameter, to read
    the ECGI, Tracking Area Code (TAC), and Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) ID list of cell B.
    4) The source eNodeB schedules appropriate idle periods to allow the UE to read the ECGI,
    TAC, and PLMN ID list of cell B over the broadcast channel (BCH).
    5) The UE reports the detected ECGI, TAC, and PLMN ID list of cell B to the source eNodeB.
