4G TRIAL: STRATEGY - SHORTENED SCELL DURING HO

Fact Finding
HoWithSccCfgSwitch Count of Site Finding:
During HO procedure, for CA user need to read A4 based S-Cell configuration.
0 28 Found 28 ENB not yet active for Scell config during HO
Background 1 2652
Improve CA throughput during mobility Result :
- CA User Throughput Decrease -5.29%
Analysis - SDR Maintain +3.13%
Basically there are 2 scenario of handover with carrier aggregation. - User DL Throughput -0.71% & UL Throughput -0.35% Maintain
A. Remove SCell Before Handover - Total Payload Maintain -1.41%
B. Enable Scell during Handover - Others KPI tend to maintain
