Y N Do Phantom RACHs increase with SDCCH Congestion? ESTABLISH WHY TCH RESOURCE DECREASED
Hardware? BSS Fault incl Tx failures? RCU Removed/Stolen? Faulty Timeslots?
Y Y
Check for sudden drops and possible hardware or BSS faults. Y Sudden change in TCH MHT? N
N Does SDCCH MHT change with SDCCH Congestion ? Y N Y N Hardware Performance OK? Fix H/W or BSS Fault
Check Dimensioning and definition of Location Area. Review Paging Traffic, identify traffic hotspots or Implement LAC Splits if LA is too big.
Are available SDCCH channels enough? Y N Increase no. of SDCCHs Allocated or Implement Dynamic SDCCH Config.
N Hardware Performance & Calibration OK ? Freq Re-use on all DRIs OK? N Re-allocate Frequencies to Cell N Y Check routing and MSC congestion stats. Refer to switching if also high. Are Training Sequences Same on all DRI/CUs?
Assignment Failure Rate Recovered Poor? Handover Drop Rate High? N Y Is cell using synthetic hopping? Y N Y
Check nei definitions, performance and calibration of other cells on the same BSC
N Y FURTHER INVESTIGATION Drive Testing incl. Freq Scanning. N N Is cm_serv_sms much greater than sum of sms_init_sdcch and sms_init_tch?
Check The Sites RF Footprint for any Spillages(discourage reselection with database para settings, if possible), missing handovers. Run Call Traces on Cell e.g. identify traffic hotspots TA. Check Database Config at Cell Level. Check Hardware Performance at carrier level viz. path balance, BER, Interference On Idle Check Installed Hardware e.g. TXCDR for any silences, faulty DRIs, etc. Check Transmission Event Logs for Tx Link Stability. Check CPU - GPROC/DHP/BTP/COBA & COSA(SBS) Utilisation esp. on LAC Boundaries with Increased Signalling due to LAC Updates. Confirm Validity of Stats.
Y Check sms performance of this cell. Refer to high level support if required
Hardware performance & calibration OK? N Y External Handover Drop Rate High? N
Fix H/W or BSS Fault Check nei definitions, database configuration, performance and calibration of other cells on other BSCs
