o INCOMING AND OUTGOING HOSR (HANDOVER

o CALL BLOCKING
o THROUGHPUT (END USER INTERNET SPEED)
o CONGESTIONS (CS/PS)
OPTIMIZATION FOR BAD KPI
There are two main ways to detect the faulty KPIs
Customer care center collect users
complains and localize them with
their corresponding serving cells
Drive Test
o Organize DT for the
complaint area
Explore
o Analysis the DT to
found the main
reasons for the bad
service
1- Complains
2-Peroidically check the main KPI for the Whole BSC/RNC to
identify worst cells

RF optimization involves adjustment of azimuths, tilts, antenna height, eNodeB transmit
power, feature algorithms, and performance parameters. Optimization methods in different
standards are similar, but each standard has its own measurement definition.

1- Add TRX (also add Freq List and corresponding logical
channels)

HOW TO KNOW ABOUT SOFT PARAMETERS
TCH TRAFFIC BUSY THRESHOLD : WHEN TCH
ASSIGNMENT RATE REACHES OR EXCEEDS THIS
THRESHOLD BSC STARTS TO ASSIGNS HALFRATE
CHANNELS. IF THIS PARAMETER IS SET TO VERY
SMALL VALUE THERE WILL E HIGH TCH
CONGESTION ON THE CELL. HOWEVER THIS
PARAMETER WILL INCREASES CHANNEL USAGES
RATE & ALSO DEGRADES SPEECH QUALITY. BY
INCREASING THE VALUE OF THIS PARAMETER WE
CAN GET RELIEF IN CONGESTION.
RXLEV_ACCESS_MIN : THIS PARAMETER SPECIFIES
THE MINIMUM RECEIVE LEVEL OF AN MS TO ACCESS
THE BSS. IF THIS PARAMETER IS SET TO A TOO SMALL
VALUE, SOME MSS WITH LOW RECEIVE LEVELS MAY
ACCESS THE NETWORK AND TCH CONGESTION IS
LIKELY TO OCCUR. YOU CAN SET THIS PARAMETER TO
A GREAT VALUE TO REDUCE THE TCH CONGESTION
RATE. THE COUNTERS SUCH AS CALL SETUP SUCCESS
RATE AND THE COUNTERS RELATED TO TRAFFIC
VOLUME, HOWEVER, ARE ACCORDINGLY AFFECTED.

Editor's Notes

  • #4 This diagram shows a simplified GSM network. The main components of a GSM System are: BSS, NSS and OMC The Mobile Station (MS) is the only direct part of the network that the subscriber can see. BSS means Base Station Subsystem. BSS is responsible for the system functions related to radio and transmission of the GSM system. BSS includes BSC and BTS. BSC means base station controller. BTS means base transceiver station. NSS means Network Subsystem. NSS is composed of MSC/VLR, HLR/AuC/EIR. NSS is the control and switching part of the whole GSM system. MSC means Mobile Switching Center. HLR means home location register. AuC means authentication center. EIR means equipment identification register. MSC provides the interface between GSM network and the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN). OMC means operation and maintenance center. It is used to configure and maintain the network from a central location. OMC is connected to BSS and NSS through LAN or WAN.
