Phenomenon description In Cell A, UE keeps reporting PSC 277 1A event.
RNC received this event and send Active Set Update to UE according to the signaling trace record
UE send Active Set Update complete to RNC
Then, RNC send Active Set Update to delete PSC 277 from active set
Finally call drop happened due to RL failure
Case 2

Problem Analysis Based on the analysis above, the new NodeB is not the one of cell B, but the one of cell C
Even the cell C prepared resource for UE according to the RNC command of “Radio Link Setup”, it can not find the UE uplink signal.
That does why the “Radio Link Failure” is sent by NodeB
Case 2

Summary
Phenomenon for wrong neighbor cell list
From DT, radio link branch is added into active set, then deleted from active set repeatedly.
SHO success rate is low
Radio link failure is low in the wrong neighbor cell, for example, cell C in case 2
Call drop is high in the cell with wrong neighbor cell, for example, cell A in case 2
Case 2
![Page 26: 18- WCDMA RF Optimization](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050820/563db779550346aa9a8b5ce1/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

Summary
About SHO event, UE will only report PSC to RNC in Measurement Report
RNC will find the right cell according to the neighbor cell list between cell ID and PSC
This problem is mainly happened in dense urban when is PSC is reused a lot
Case 2

Description UE is in Cell 14602 with frequency B
When 14602 is in high load level, UE will be handed over to 14603 with another frequency A
When 14603 is in high load level, UE will be handed over to 14605 with frequency C
Because frequency A and C are not used continuously at this area, UE has to be handed over to Cell 14031 with frequency B
14603 and 14605 can share the load level, but the call drop rate in 14603 is very high.
Case 3
![Page 29: 18- WCDMA RF Optimization](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050820/563db779550346aa9a8b5ce1/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

Analysis Because it’s difficult to do drive test for collecting signaling trace, the IOS (Information of Subscriber) trace is used. Based on the analysis for the call dropped UE, there is one thing is common:
Before call drop in 24603, all UEs initiated compress mode, and send Measurement Report to RNC periodically, but handover is not triggered.
Case 3
![Page 30: 18- WCDMA RF Optimization](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050820/563db779550346aa9a8b5ce1/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

Analysis Open “Inter-frequency Measurement Control”, the Cell 14605 with frequency C is put in the first place
And in the following measurement report, UE only report Cell 14605
But the cell 14605 cell signal level is lower than -90dBm, which can not trigger handover, till call drop.

Question Why the handover can not be triggered?
Since the network give UE the information of cell 14605 and cell 14031, Why UE only report cell 14605?
Did UE measure cell 14301, just not report it?
Or, UE never measure cell 14301, just 14605?
Case 3
![Page 35: 18- WCDMA RF Optimization](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050820/563db779550346aa9a8b5ce1/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Page35Copyright © 2007 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. All rights reserved.
Analysis UE report cell 14605 CPICH RSCP is 19, which is -96dBm.
After checking the RNC configuration file, this CPICH RSCP level can not trigger inter-frequency handover
Actually, because cell 14605 and 14603 are in one sector, their signal level should be same.
Case 3
![Page 36: 18- WCDMA RF Optimization](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050820/563db779550346aa9a8b5ce1/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Page36Copyright © 2007 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. All rights reserved.
Analysis If UE can report cell 14031, the handover may be triggered
After analyze the compress mode principle, it is found that UE can only monitor 1 WCDMA frequency in the gap of compress mode.
Case 3
![Page 37: 18- WCDMA RF Optimization](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050820/563db779550346aa9a8b5ce1/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Page37Copyright © 2007 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. All rights reserved.
Analysis Because UE can not measure cell 14301 with frequency B, only monitor cell 14605 with frequency C, and meanwhile cell 14605 and 14603 signal level are
same, the call dropped due to the poor signal of 14605 and 14603
How to make UE monitor cell 14301 with frequency B instead of 14605 with frequency C?

Case 2
Analysis
Check the location of the sites with high RTWP
High
Medium
Low
![Page 109: 18- WCDMA RF Optimization](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050820/563db779550346aa9a8b5ce1/html5/thumbnails/109.jpg)

Case 2 Analysis
All the problem cells are in the third sector of the NodeB, and the direction is to the northwest
Many cells at this area show high interference, and the cells with low RTWP are at low place
![Page 110: 18- WCDMA RF Optimization](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050820/563db779550346aa9a8b5ce1/html5/thumbnails/110.jpg)

Case 2 Analysis
Analyze the RTWP in the nearly one month, the interference shows randomly, but if
appears, usually one whole day, or several days
The interference shows with high traffic, and also with low traffic. No evidence shows it
is related to the traffic
![Page 111: 18- WCDMA RF Optimization](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050820/563db779550346aa9a8b5ce1/html5/thumbnails/111.jpg)

Case 2
Analysis
Maybe the interference comes from outside and
the northwest direction

Case 2 Analysis
Maybe the interference comes from A country, but looks like impossible because the
distance (50 to 200Km) is beyond the transmission
To confirm this problem, use A country cell phone at the area with high RTWP
The result shows the phone does receive the A country DSC

Case 2 Conclusion
The interference comes from A country GSM
Even the distance is very far, the area between the border is covered by a large water
area
Due to reflection the water, the signal can be transmitted far away

After known the reason, the following character of this kind of interference is found Related to the weather
– Rain day, no interference
– Cloudy day, less interference
– Sunny day, high interference
Related to the seasons also
– Problems show at Summer more than Winter
