Features do not have engineering guidelines. Weve enhanced our Engineering Guidelines in the Feature
Parameter Description. The new guidelines contain planning,
deploying, and maintain features.
The definition of frequency diversity scheduling and frequency
selective scheduling in the Scheduling Feature Parameter
Description is unclear and the application scenarios are missing
Weve add Figures, more Explicit description and clearer
application scenario in Feature Parameter Description
Non complete hardware spec and some information is missing. Weve add more specification information in Technical
Description and Hardware Description, to make it easy for
customers to find the complete information of hardware
specification.
The Commissioning Guide cant guide me to deploy a site in
IPSec scenario, there lacks information.
Weve add the Automatic OMCH Establishment to describe the
information needed when deploy a site. The document is
packaged in the Commissioning Guide
Missing configuration guide of some scenarios, such as Weve add more configuration scenarios in Reconfiguration
Guide.

Feature Parameter Description


Improve the Unclear Feature Definition and Benefit
eRAN6.0 introduces the new Overview chapters in each FPD,
including the feature introduction, benefits and architecture,
improve the unclear definition and benefits.



Add Figures to Rich the Technical Description
Action: add two figures and application scenarios about DL resource
allocation in frequency diversity scheduling and frequency selective
scheduling to help enhance understanding the technical description.

eRAN3.0
eRAN6.0

VOC: TI said the definition of frequency diversity scheduling and

Description is unclear and the application scenarios are missing

More Explicit Description and Clearer Application Scenario
eRAN3.0

Action: modify the DL CQI adjustment algorithm in the Scheduling
Feature Parameter Description, making it more clear and accurate.
VOC: TI asked what is the target IBLER value in the DL CQI adjustment
algorithm? What is the appropriate value? 10%? Why choose this
value?
Vague description
Explicit description

Why the optimum IBLER value is 10%.
Which scenarios apply this value.
eRAN6.0


More Valuable Data Preparation
Action: in the Idle Mode Management Feature Parameter
Description, the Data Preparation is improved to give
more parameter setting advise, help to decide that the
parameter is set small value or large value.
eRAN3.0
eRAN6.0

VOC: how to choose the appropriate value for the
CellReselPriority parameter? Larger or small?


More Practical Troubleshooting
Action: for example, in the UL Comp Feature Parameter
Description, the troubleshooting is rewriting based on actual
field verification and has been actually used to eliminate some
fault.
eRAN3.0
eRAN6.0

VOC: troubleshooting steps are not practical enough, can not
guide the actual troubleshooting.

Voices of Customers:
Add alarm lists in the documents, if new alarms are introduced after the feature is activated.
Action:
Added related alarm lists in the troubleshooting chapter in Feature Parameter Description about the equipment and transmission. E.g. Synchronization, RAN
Sharing, Transmission Efficiency Improvement, IP Performance Monitor. So that you can know newly introduced alarms due to the feature.
Implementation:

Alarm Reference Optimization: Remote handling & Onsite handling
Voices of Customers Huawei Action
Manpower and high costs are required when engineers perform the network
maintenance on sites, especially at base stations. Therefore, after alarms are reported,
we need to decide whether it is necessary to send engineers to sites to clear them.
Engineers frequently forget to bring important tools to the site. Time and costs are
wasted the on way back to fetch those tools.
The remote handling and onsite handling are described separately .
The onsite preparation reminds engineers which tools and equipment
are necessary.
Packaged in Product Documentation. Implemented in SRAN8.0
(GBSS15.0 / RAN15.0 / eRAN6.0).
New! tools and
equipment are

Change: The documents for G/U/L single-mode 3900 series Base Stations are not separately packaged for release. Instead, these
documents are packaged in one documentation package.
Change Reason:
Align with the unified SRAN8.0 Base Station software release policy.
It is easier for customer to understand common points and differences between modes.
It is more convenient for customer to manage documentation.
Avoid inconsistent update of the same content in different documents.
