Reference RAN Parameter range for good/acceptable quality: Ec/Io = -3 dB -8 dB Busy hours In general, during RRC connection request statistics describes acceptable median Ec/Io conditions. Some cells show a median Ec/Io below the good quality threshold of -8 dB. The worst cells for all calls are (both cell ID and SC is indicated):

The strongest interfered cells during RT call setup with median little i > 1 are
For RT calls, the median propagation delay ranges typically from 6-24 chips, corresponding to about 0.5 to 1.9 km. Some cells, however, show a very large median extension of up to 96 chips (about 7.5 km).

Conclusions
Little i is too much
More Antenna tilting Less CPICH overshooting Change/downgrade service request on cell edge for NRT Little i PD analyzing
Cell range:
Some cells show a very large median extension of up to 96 chips (about 7.5 km). The more distance access explains the higher adjacent cell interference for NRT calls.

16 issue 11/09
For RT calls the SHO performance is consistent with an addition window of 4 dB. dB In most cells the median EC/I0 difference between server and best neighbor indicated by the first event 1A report is not much lower than this threshold. The SHO process is initiated in time, when the server still is clearly dominating.

low Interference

High Interference
Too late E1A trigger, big SHO/power overlap area - Release margin will drop UE
Most significant causes at Cell layer e.g neighbor cell 18dB stronger than serving cell

Conclusions
Event 1A analyzing
Results:
In most cells the median Ec/Io difference between server and best neighbor indicated by the first event 1A report is not much lower than recommended threshold 2 dB3 dB. But please change shift Ec/Io filter coefficient from 600 ms to 400 ms.

Busy Hours
The median TCP within the network is low. The highest load is indicated for cell 10873, with a median TCP of 27.5 % of the maximum cell power. The median TCP, however, is not very informative, as the load undergoes very strong short term fluctuations. On the other side the raw TCP measurements indicate, that even the cell with highest load seldom is in overload state.

Conclusions
DL Tx PwR analyzing Results/conclusion: No congestions due to low overload situations. The highest load is indicated for cell 10873 (< 30% median max. load)

Busy Hours
The median RTWP within the network is very high, ranking from about -97 to -95 dBm for all cells, which is far above the default overload threshold. There is also a considerable fluctuation, as shown here for cell 16822, the cell with highest instability.

Conclusions
UL RTWP analyzing
Results/conclusion:
Too much interference within UL direction Little i within UL direction is too high and/or out of band IM (e.g. video cameras) RRC performance can suffer. In-balance of UL/DL path loss auto tuning saves capacity within cell, already enabled, but too much little i Auto tuning can perform high UL sensitivity and save need of services within cells. But it will reduce cell coverage too Use GIS analysis to detect UE faults and interference causes
