KPI Reference 2 CS Accessibility KPIs
2 CS Accessibility KPIs
This chapter describes the CS accessibility KPIs that mainly indicate the call
success rate when an MS accesses the network. Low accessibility KPIs directly lead
to low user satisfaction.
2.1 Immediate Assignment Success Rate

This counter provides the rate of successful service accesses (except PS service
accesses) to a signaling channel. It indicates the procedure from the initiation of
the channel request message (including the retransmitted channel request
message) by the MS to the reception of the establish indication message.
2.2 Congestion Rate on SDCCH per Cell (Due to Busy)
This counter provides the rate of the number of times that all SDCCHs are busy to
the total number of requests for the SDCCH. It indicates the SDCCH collisions due
to insufficient resources.
2.3 Call Drop Rate on SDCCH
This counter provides the rate of call drops that occur when an SDCCH is occupied.
2.4 Assignment Success Rate
This counter provides the rate that the requested TCHs are seized successfully in
the assignment procedure. It involves the procedure from the BSC's receiving the
assignment request sent by the MSC to the assignment completion.
2.5 TCH Congestion Rate (Overflow)
This counter provides the rate of the number of failed immediate assignments,
assignments, or handovers due to no idle TCHs to the number of TCH seizure
requests.
2.6 TCH Seizure Success Rate
the very early assignment procedure, assignment procedure, or handover
procedure. Assignment Success Rate indicates the TCH seizure condition in the
assignment procedure. Comparably, TCH Seizure Success Rate indicates the
successful seizure of all the TCHs.
2.7 Call Establishment Success Rate
This counter provides the rate of successful calls initiated by the MS from the call
setup procedure to the assignment completion procedure.
2.8 BSS Call Establishment Success Rate

KPI Reference 4 CS Mobility KPIs
4 CS Mobility KPIs
This chapter describes the CS mobility KPIs that indicate the handover success rate
on the move. In addition, these KPIs indicate the capability of providing
continuous services. A low handover success rate leads to a high call drop rate.
4.1 Handover Success Rate

This counter provides the rate of the total number of successful handovers due to
any cause to the total number of handover requests due to any cause. The
purpose of handover is to ensure the call continuity, improve the speech quality,
and reduce the cross interference in the network, providing better services for the
MSs.
4.2 Um-Interface Handover Success Rate
This counter provides the handover success rate on the Um interface after a
handover command is sent and before the handover is complete. Statistics taken
by this item exclude target cell handover failure due to congestion. Therefore, the
value of this counter is always greater than or equal to the value of Handover
Success Rate.
4.3 Intra-BSC Handover Success Rate
This counter provides the intra-BSC handover success rate, including the intra-BSC
intra-cell handovers and intra-BSC inter-cell handovers. It indicates intra-BSC
handover, and reduces the influence of other BSCs.
4.4 Um-Interface Intra-BSC Handover Success Rate
Compared with Intra-BSC Handover Success Rate, this counter focuses on the
influence of the Um interface on handover. It involves the procedures from
sending a handover command to handover completion, and therefore reduces
failures due to channel congestion.
4.5 Incoming Inter-BSC Handover Success Rate
This counter provides the success rate of incoming inter-BSC handovers. It
indicates the inter-BSC handover interaction.
4.6 Um-Interface Incoming Inter-BSC Handover Success Rate
This counter provides the success rate of incoming inter-BSC handovers on the Um
interface. It indicates the inter-BSC handover interaction.

handovers to the number of corresponding handover requests.
4.10 Success Rate of Dual-Band Handovers (1800/1900-900/850/810)

This counter provides the rate of the total number of successful handovers due to
any cause to the total number of handover requests due to any cause. The
purpose of handover is to ensure the call continuity, improve the speech quality,

KPI Reference 6 CS Resource Usage KPIs
6 CS Resource Usage KPIs
This chapter describes the CS resource Uusage KPIs that are used to monitor the
load of hot spots and the network. These KPIs can serve as references for capacity
expansion. The traffic volume KPIs help operators obtain the ratio of traffic during
peak hours to traffic during off-peak hours, to evaluate the system resource
usage, and to adjust charges. The equipment availability KPIs help operators learn
about the running status of equipment, such as the running status of channels. If
these KPIs are low, equipment and transmission are faulty.
6.1 Traffic Volume on SDCCH

This counter provides the ratio of the duration for which the MS occupies the
signaling channel to the granularity period. The signaling channels include the
SDCCHs and the TCHs used for signaling channels.
6.2 Traffic Volume on TCH
This counter provides the frequency of seizing the TCHs, that is, the actual length
of activated TCHs.
6.3 TCHH Traffic Volume
This counter provides the traffic volume on the TCHs of all the cells under the
control of the BSC, excluding the traffic volume in the very early assignment.
6.4 TCH Availability
This counter provides the rate of available TCHs to configured TCHs.
6.5 TCH Resource Usage

This counter provides the rate of TCH call drops to successful TCH seizures after
the BSC assigns the TCH to an MS (including handovers) in a cell.
7.2 Call Drop Rate on TCH per Cell (Excluding Handover)
the BSC assigns the TCH to an MS (excluding handovers) in a BSC.

return to the original TCH during the handover to the total successful TCH
seizures.

The preceding formula does not take the impact of inter-RAT
handover on call drops into account. When inter-RAT handovers
occur, you are advised to use the following customized formula:
Call drop rate on TCH per cell (Including Handover) = (X +
Number of times the outgoing inter-RAT inter-cell handover

inter-RAT inter-cell handovers)

formula.

be used when inter-RAT handovers are detected:

between the time when the original cell receives the last TCP
packet and the time when the target cell receives the first TCP
packet.

Notes 1. The upload test is different from the download test. This
counter is appraised in the mode of download test:
2. The Service Interruption Delay for Cell Reselection (ms) is
appraised through the Um interface on some networks. This
counter is defined as follows: the interval between the time
when the Cell Reselection message is displayed with the MA
test tool, such as TEMS, and the time when the MS initiates the
Channel Request message in a new cell. The signaling shows
the interval which is measured manually.
3. The Service Interruption Delay for Cell Reselection (ms) is
impacted by the following factors: Whether the NACC and NC2
modes are enabled; whether the 2G/3G inter-RAT cell
reselection is performed; whether the cross-RA reselection is
performed.
