2Internal Use
This lecture introduces the various stages involved in optimizing a 3G radio network and focuses mainly on the RF Optimization phase.
Step-by-step approach for the analysis of drive survey data collected by Agilent Scanner and test UE is presented. The analysis is carried out using the post processing tool “Actix Analyzer”.

3Internal Use
RF optimization will be an ongoing activity and will need to be revisited as traffic increases in the network and as new sites are deployed.
In addition, as the network matures, the optimization process should be enhanced to take into account statistical data and key performance indicators collected throughout the network.

RF Optimization Once all the sites in a given area are integrated and
verified, RF (or Cluster) optimization could begin. Objectives
To optimize coverage while in the same time keeping interference and pilot pollution under control over the target area. This phase also includes the verification and optimization of the 3G neighbor lists.

Services Testing & Parameter Optimization To be conducted in areas of good RF conditions in order
to exclude any coverage issues. Such testing does not need to be performed for each cell but the drive route must include different clutter types and environments.
Objectives To assess the performance and identify any need for
specific parameter optimization.

Regular Reference Route Testing & Stats Analysis Constant monitoring and evaluation of the network
performance can be based on field testing as well as network stats analysis.
Results of the regular analysis may necessitate re-visits to the RF optimization and/or parameters’ tuning.
Objectives To identify any new issues that could arise, for example,
as a result of increase in traffic or changes in the environment.

RF Analysis Approaches – Cell DominanceRF Analysis Approaches – Cell Dominance
Cells with no dominance at all A site was not radiating during the drive survey Very poor dominance can also be caused by blocking of t
he antenna. So a site visit must be made to verify the antenna clearance.
Cells with either excessive or poor dominance This could be due to a high site or non-optimum antenna t
ilts. Cells with too large dominance will be causing interferenc
e to adjacent cells resulting in poor capacity.

RF Analysis Approaches – Cell DominanceRF Analysis Approaches – Cell Dominance
Areas of non-dominance: Areas where there is not a single clear dominant cell and
where the best server changes too frequently. Result: Excessive soft handover events reduce the syste
m efficiency and increas the probability of call drops. UE vs. Scanner Best Serving Cells:
Comparison between the UE and scanner SC plots. Significant differences between the plots may indicate a missing neighbor or failed soft handoff problem.

RF Analysis Approaches – Pilot PollutionRF Analysis Approaches – Pilot Pollution
Estimated Active Set Size Another useful measure of pilot pollution is by looking at
the estimated active set based on the scanner data. This plot is obtained by modeling the network soft handoff parameters within Actix.
In order to see areas of excessive SHO candidates, the estimated active set size is allowed to exceed maximum of 3.
This can be done in conjunction with the Pilot pollution analysis.

the Neighbor List Verification tool within Actix. Recommendations for Each Cell:
Retain: This indicates that those neighbors have been confirmed from the drive survey data.
Add: Missing neighbors Remove: These neighbors that were not measured but
are in the neighbor list.
Careful consideration is needed prior to removing neighbours since the Actix results are drive route dependent.

Compare Ec/Io from both scanner and UE at the time of the drop as shown in Figure. This clearly shows the UE Ec/Io to drop to < -21 dB while the scanner remained above -11 dB.

Comparing the best servers from the UE and the scanner at the time of drop:
Call Drop 1 (UE vs. scanner best server) shows that SC008 is the best server before call drop in both UE and scanner. However, about 30 seconds before the drop, the scanner selected SC018 as the best server while the UE continued to have only SC009 in its active set resulting in the drop call. Immediately after the drop, the UE camps on SC018.

Conclusion Examining the UE Active and Monitored set, Figure does not
show SC018 to be measured by the UE prior to the drop. This scenario resembles a missing neighbor problem

Solution: Looking at call drop Figure clearly shows that at the
location of the drop, SC018 should not be the best server.
Cell SC018 clearly requires some down tilting to control its interference into the area of Drop 1. To illustrate this, RSCP coverage of SC018 shows clearly that the cell’s is extending into a large area. E.g. around the location of drop call, SC018 RSCP is > -75dBm.
