During LOC and the early stage of MOC and MTC process, MS
usually seizes SDCCH to exchange signaling.

Generally, the number of LOC attempts takes 35% of the total SD access
times (the percentage may increases to 70%, if the site is located at LAC
boundary); the number of SD access caused by MOC and that caused by
MTC are almost equal; other causes rarely happen.
If there are a big number of attempts due to other reasons, and all end in failure, the
cause can be confirmed that is interference.
If the number of MOC attempts is large and the rate of the number to the total of
attempts is high, there may be MS malicious pager operating in the network.
If number of LOC increases abnormally, there may be changes on LAC planning or
amendments of HLR and VLR.
If SD congestion is accompanied with large number of assignment failures, it’s very
possible that the cell traffic volume is high or co-channel interference exists.

Through signaling
tracing, we could
see the large
quantity of LOC
under the cell was
from LAC09533 to
LAC09523.
The site was located between two location areas (LAC), the cell belonged to one
LAC. A road, 1.5km from the site, was under the coverage of another LAC.
In on-site DT, the cell was found stretched its coverage to the road, and resulted
in frequent LOC on the road.
After adjustment of antenna to control the cell’s coverage, SD congestion
obviously reduced.
