GENEX Nastar WCDMA is an intelligent and integrated tool developed by Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. to optimize the radio network performance.
The Nastar WCDMA is capable of locating the network troubles through data filtering and data excavation. The Nastar WCDMA satisfies the in-depth demands proposed of the network operators through these means. The Nastar WCDMA can: Import and analyze the following data: - Configuration data - Performance data - Call Historical Record (CHR) data - IOS and RTWP data Conduct various theme analysis on network performance. Display the KPI on the map window. Query the performance report and the configuration data

Optimize the intra-frequency neighbors

Conduct pilot pollution analysis

Comprehensive Performance Report

The Nastar WCDMA provides a panoramic view of the network performance through the routine network monitoring. The following three reports contains the regular reports: Network monitoring report RNC weekly report RNC daily report In the Nastar WCDMA, we can also edit the report with the flexible report interface.

Intra-Frequency Neighbors Optimization

Based on the analysis of CHR and performance data, the Nastar WCDMA can find the missing and redundant neighbors, and take effective measures to solve them in order to guarantee the network mobility. The Nastar WCDMA displays the troublesome areas on the map. The main features in the Nastar WCDMA is as follows: Neighbor missing record query Neighbor optimization intelligent parse Neighbor SHO record query Neighbor missing TopN query Neighbor optimization report

Display the troublesome areas on the map. Locate the network troubles directly, and thus relieve the burden of drive test.

Solutions to Pilot Pollution

The pilot pollution analysis is based on the analysis of the configuration parameters, CHR, and the engineering parameter. The analysis result can be displayed on the map or exported for further analysis. For pilot pollution analysis, the Nastar WCDMA provides the following functions: Pilot pollution area statistics Cell wireless quality analysis Pilot pollution on map Pilot pollution analysis report

The pilot pollution and coverage leak can be found through background analysis. In this way, the optimization is greatly improved and has more centralized targets.

2. List TopN Worst Cells Concerning RRC Setup Through Second Query.

Worst Cells

3. Conduct Second Query on the Worst Cells to find Reasons for RRC Rejection.

Locating Problems: The RRC rejection is due to power congestion.

4. Solution
The reasons for RRC setup rejection due to resource congestion. RRC_REJ_POWER_CONG_CELLIn this case, the RRC setup rejection is due to the power congestion. It is means the configuration of CAC parameters should be considered whether it is reasonable, if this indicator is always high, it is means that the cell load reaches the threshold. The network needs expansion or balancing the load.

Right-click on the RNC Daily Report and choose the Execute option.
Set the date in the Generate Performance Report dialog box. To generate the daily report, the begin date should be as same as the end date.

Call drop rate exceeds the threshold

3. Focus the mains reasons of CS call drop on the Top10 worst cells.

RNC releases the RAB, which is triggered by the RF failure in CS domain (synchronization failure on the uplink)

HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES Co., Ltd.

Page 32

4. Solution
In this case, we can find the main reason of CS call drop is due to UL synchronization failure. It should be caused by some problems of coverage or neighbour missing or abnormal handover parameters, we recommends to check these. If the problems were still exist after checking all parameters, the next step is to analyze the engineering parameters to improve the coverage, for example, to adjust the down tilt and azimuth of the antenna. If the adjustment to antenna cannot remove the coverage hole, we recommend to add new sites or repeaters.

5. After the optimization, generate the RNC Weekly Report to check the KPI performance.

After the optimization on the worst cells, the call access rate in the CS or PS domain increases and call drop rate decreases.
