Test Mobile Measurements
• Collect RxLev measurements together with GPS co-ordinates• Analyse on planning tool• Reasons for poor coverage:
– serving cell not best server• handover problems
– best server signal low• check site / network design
• Analyse in terms of relevant
thresholds:– indoor level– in-car level– outdoor level

Test Types
• Continuous drive test– setup a test call and drive over an area for detecting lack of
coverage, missing handovers, interferences etc.• Spot test
– detail measurement to be taken at dedicated problem spots for detail analyzing of specific problem

Collect / Analyse Drive Test Measurements
• Test measurement (TEMS etc. together with a GPS)
– Signal Strength
– Co-channel and adjacent interference
– Handover relations
• Test types
– Continuos drive test (Trace mode)
– Spot test
– Network performance test (Statistical mode)
• Test Measurement
– Collect MS measurement report data (Downlink only!!)

Coverage: Analysis for Fulfilment of Coverage Requirements (Urban, rural ... areas, outdoor, in-car, indoor)
Dropped Call: Analysis for Dropped Calls due to Interference, SW/HW failures, Transmission Network Failures
Call Setup: Analysis for Blocking and CapacityLimitations, Analysis for Resource Allocation Procedures
Handover: Analysis for Efficient HandoverPerformance

Analysis Programs

Dropped Call Analysis
• How to measure – drive tests
• repeated call setups (preferred)• continuous calls
– OMC measurements• Reasons for dropped calls
– lack of coverage– interference problems– handover problems– lack of synchronisation in network– problems with other parts of the network
![Page 9: 40234553 drive-test](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081507/55545833b4c905b2428b55de/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Call Setup Analysis
• Reasons for failed call setups– lack of coverage– database problems
• database inconsistencies• parameter settings, e.g.
– RXLEV_ACCESS_MIN, RACHBT, RACH_MAX_RETRANS
– cell reselection related parameters– network congestion
![Page 10: 40234553 drive-test](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081507/55545833b4c905b2428b55de/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Handover Parameters
• Fine-tuning of handover parameters– Moving cell boundaries in order to
• Enhance success rate for critical handovers• Minimise local interference at the cell edge• Traffic load sharing between cells
– Compared to other opimisation measures improvement potential is limited
– Affected by• Measurement averaging• Power control parameters
PS! Neighbours should in generalbe mutual

Speech Quality Analysis
• Parameters– RxQual– Frame Erasure Rate (FER)– Speech Quality Index (SQI)
• Measurements– Drive test
• preferably continuous call
– OMC statistics• Cause for poor quality
– low signal strength (coverage related
– interference– low signal strength and
interference
• Causes of interference
– co-channel interference
– adjacent channel interference
– intermodulation
• mainly on one link only
– multipath interference

Location Area Codes
• Purpose– identify location area– in incoming call is paged to all BTS’s within LA
• Large location area– advantage: less location updates (reduced SDCCH load)– disadvantage: more paging traffic
• Boundaries should not cross high traffic areas• Cell reselection across LA boundaries
– Parameter Cell_Reselect_Hysteresis (typ. 4 dB) used to avoid unnecessary signalling due to ping-pong cell reselections

Advantages over test drives
– Less labor intensive and time consuming– More comprehensive, based on large number of users– not limited to time of test drive– Uplink and Downlink analysis possible– Subscriber behavior mix of outdoor, indoor, incar use

Antenna Configuration
• General points to check– antenna type, e.g.
• omni• directional 60, 90 or 120 degrees• electrical downtilt• cross-polarised
– antenna azimuth angle (for directional antennae)• coverage targets
– antenna tilt angle• electrical + mechanical
– diversity & isolation• e.g. space diversity, • polarisation diversity
![Page 19: 40234553 drive-test](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081507/55545833b4c905b2428b55de/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Site Check
• Verify that site is implemented according to plan• Check installation e.g.
– antenna spacing (diversity, isolation)– antennae in one sector are installed in the same plane– antennae alignment– omni antenna installation– cable installation

Antenna Fine Tuning
• Horizontal Plane:– Possible coverage weakness between sectors– Interference reduction– Traffic load distribution
• Vertical Plane:– Interference reduction– Possible coverage weakness in the short to medium distance
range– Traffic load distribution
![Page 21: 40234553 drive-test](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081507/55545833b4c905b2428b55de/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Omni vs. Sectorised
• OMNI cells - more difficult to optimise– Electrical downtilt possible, however
• same for entire cell– Parameters same for entire cell
• Directional antennae– narrower beam easier to control interference– tilting less efficient with wider beams
Sectorised cell site with different downtilt angles
![Page 22: 40234553 drive-test](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081507/55545833b4c905b2428b55de/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Tilting
• Antenna downtilt often used to minimise interference– Minimum: Vertical mail lobe pointing at cell edge
BSh
– Maximum: First null angle pointing at cell edge
![Page 23: 40234553 drive-test](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081507/55545833b4c905b2428b55de/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

Electrical Mechanical
– Advantages:• Better back lobe characteristics• Better lower side lobe characteristics
– Disadvantages:• Antennas are more expensive
Tilting
• Electrical vs. Mechanical downtilt
A combination ofmechanical / electricaldowntilt may be used
