Test location and route choose principle

The right test point meeting the following conditions:

Where the signals of target cell are strong
Where the signals of other cells are weak
HUAWEI Confidential

Test location and route choose principle

For better performance, the following methods can be

taken:
Disable power amplifiers of other cells except the cell to

be measured
If cannot disable other cells, the testing point should be

near the center of the cell, with line-of-sight distance to
the NodeB
For a macro cell, testing point should be less than 100
meters from NodeB in the direction of major beam of cell
antenna, with line-of-sight distance to NodeB.

Verification in Idle Mode

Frequency Check
Downlink frequency channel number = DL Frequency * 5
For example
UE shows the DL frequency is 2117.40
The DL frequency point number is 10587
HUAWEI Confidential

Cell ID Check
Check whether the LAC/RAC of the cell to be measured is consistent

with the planed one
HUAWEI Confidential


Scrambling code Check

At the right place, UE will show

PSC in active set, including the signal level
PSC in monitor set, including the signal level
HUAWEI Confidential


LAC/RAC Check
Check whether the LAC/RAC of the cell to be measured is consistent

with the planed one
HUAWEI Confidential


CPICH_RSCP/CPICH_EcIo (Near Site) Test

Method
In the major transmission direction of antenna, fix a location with line-ofsight distance from the antenna within 100 meters from the NodeB
Test UE shows the signal level, including RSCP and Ec/Io
Bench Mark Value

For macro cells, CPICH RSCP > 75 dBm
For micro cells, CPICH RSCP > 60 dBm
For no-load cells, CPICH Ec/Io > 8 dB
For load-on cells, CPICH Ec/Io > 10 dB
HUAWEI Confidential

Verification in Connected Mode

Originating and Terminating Connection Test of Voice Service

Method
Use two handsets to call each other for five times.
Record the originating and terminating connection conditions
HUAWEI Confidential


Originating and Terminating Connection Test of VP Service

Method
Use two handsets to call each other for five times.
Record the originating and terminating connection conditions
HUAWEI Confidential


Connection Test of PS Services

Method
Originating function of PS services by handset online service
Pay attention to the throughput
HUAWEI Confidential

Drive Test for Coverage of the Site

Method
Prepare the NodeB location map
need to cover major streets around the NodeB
Output area coverage map based on the pilot signals received by

scanner
Compare the CPICH RSCP and Ec/Io distribution of each cell
HUAWEI Confidential

HSDPA Access Function Test

Preparation for HSDPA Test

Check defined downlink rate of the test USIM card
Check the related HSDPA parameters in RNC configuration file with

LST FRC and ensure USIM card subscribe rate is equal or greater
DlBeTraffDecThs
Prepare the DT software with HSDPA test function module
Prepare the terminal with HSDPA function and category

Huawei E870, category 8, 7.2Mbps
HUAWEI Confidential

HSDPA Access Function Test

Method
Origination high speed downloading service, such FTP download
HUAWEI Confidential

Antenna Diversity Check

Objectivity
Check whether the antenna for receiving diversity signals is reversely

connected
HUAWEI Confidential


Method 1
In the cell to be measured, set UE transmits signals with the fixed

maximum power
Check the RTWP of the cell to be measured and the neighbor cells
If the RTWP of the corresponding cell increases only and the RTWP of
neighbor sectors changes less, the diversity receiver antenna is correctly
connected
If the RTWP of corresponding cell and other sectors increases at the
same time, the diversity receiver antenna is improperly connected
HUAWEI Confidential


Method 2
Connect the Tx/Rx feeder to the Rx ports and the Rx feeder to the
Tx/Rx port.
Compare the CPICH RSCP before and after exchanging feeders.

If the difference of CPICH RSCP before and after exchanging feeders is
more than 20 dB, the diversity receiver antenna is improperly connected

Weak Coverage Problem Analysis

Phenomenon
In single site verification drive test, the signal level is very bad in
200m with line-of-sight
No blocking
Analysis
Check the alarm information (VSWR) no alarm
Check the feeder system

Downtilt angle OK
Azimuth OK
Connector OK
HUAWEI Confidential

Analysis
Check configuration file

The parameters related to CPICH power OK

33dBm, and the maximum transmission power for the cell 20W.
HUAWEI Confidential

Analysis
Check the output power of the cell
HUAWEI Confidential

Analysis
Check the output power of the cell
HUAWEI Confidential

Analysis
Base on the output power examination, the problem is located on

the PA problem
Solution
Change the PA
Re-test
Signal level back to normal
HUAWEI Confidential
Antenna Diversity Problem Analysis

In single site verification, antenna receiving diversity should be

checked
Phenomenon
Without subscriber, the RTWP test shows
HUAWEI Confidential

Phenomenon
Set the UE with maximum transmission power in 10111, the cell

10111 and 10112 RTWP increased at the same time,
HUAWEI Confidential

Phenomenon
Set the UE with maximum transmission power in 10112, same

problem happened
Result
The receiving diversity antenna of cell 10111 and 10112 are

connected crossly.
Adjustment
Exchange the receiving diversity antenna of these two cells
HUAWEI Confidential

Re-test
Set the UE with the maximum transmission power in Cell 10111,

check the RTWP of 10111 and 10112, only the RTWP of 10111
increased, the problem was resolved
