Closed outer loop: RNC calculates the SIR target and sends the target to NodeB (every
10ms frame).
Closed inner loop: NodeB sends the TPC bits to UE to increase or decrease the power at
1,500 times a second.
12) RRC (Radio Resource Control) is the control plan protocol: controls the radio
resources for the access network.
13) What could be the cause of soft handover failure?
UE issue.
Missing neighbor
Resource unavailable at target NodeB.
Congestion at target cell
Low coverage (low Rscp and EcNo)
Imroper SHO threshold defined.
Etc.
14) What are the events 1a, 1b, 1c, etc.?
e1a a Primary CPICH enters the reporting range, i.e. add a cell to active set.
e1b a primary CPICH leaves the reporting range, i.e. removed a cell from active set.
e1c a non-active primary CPICH becomes better than an active primary CPICH, i.e.
replace a cell.
e1d: change of best cell.
e1e: a Primary CPICH becomes better than an absolute threshold.
e1f: a Primary CPICH becomes worse than an absolute threshold.
15) What are event 2a-2d and 3a-3d?
Events 2a-2d are for inter-frequency handover measurements and events 3a-3d are for IRAT
handover measurements.
e3a: the UMTS cell quality has moved below a threshold and a GSM cell quality had moved
above a threshold.
e3b: the GSM cell quality has moved below a threshold.
e3c: the GSM cell quality has moved above a threshold.
e3d: there was a change in the order of best GSM cell list.

Week Coverage
QQUALMIN: Ue can camp on the cell only whrnthe measured CPICH EcNo is
greater than the value of this parameter.
QRXLEVMIN: QQUALMIN: Ue can camp on the cell only whrnthe measured
CPICH RSCP is greater than the value of this parameter.
IdleSintrasearch: When the quality of the serving cell is lower than this threshold plus
th Qqualmin of the cell, the intra frequency cell reselction procedure will be started.
(Recomm. Value: 5, namely 10db)
SsearchRat: A threshold for Inter-RAT cell reselection. Reccom. Value: 2, namely 4db
PreambleRetransMax: T he maximum number of preambles transmitted in a preamble.
Reccom value: 20
CIO (Cell Individual Offset): It is used for intra or inter frequency
handover desicions. The larger value of the parameter provides us higher priority of
the neighboring cell. , this parameter is used for moving the border of a cell. The
greater this parameter (positive values), the more easily soft handover occurs, and the
more UEs in the soft handover state
Recomm. Value:0, namely 0db
RlMaxDlPower: The parameter is relative to PCPICH transmit power. And It is
adjusted to coverage and service requirements. For example, it is max value -3, min
value -18 db for CS 12.2kbps AMR. It is max value -4, min value -17 for PS 64 kbps
services.
ReleaseConnOffset : If UE enters a new cell area, and the quality Ec/No of
the new cell is ReleaseConnOffset dBabove the quality of the best cell in the Active
Set, and for any reason, the new cell cannot be included in the Active Set, then the call
shall be released.
The reason is that it is not permitted to stay (with an established connection) in a cell
area without being power controlled by the cell serving that area. The UE may cause
interference in the uplink.
TrigTime1A,TrigTime1B, TrigTime1C,TrigTime1D: Used by UE functions
for intra-frequency measurement reporting in CELL_DCH Soft handover time-to-trigger
parameters (event time-to-trigger parameters. Only the equation are always satisfied during
the trigger time, the event will be triggered).
maxFach1Power:
Maximum power, to be used for transmitting the first FACH channel, relative the
primaryCpichPower value. The first FACH is used for logical channels BCCH, CCCH
and DCCH, control signaling.
If RTWP increase so output power of the Ue will increase. After that Ul coverage and
capacity will decrease so Ul BLER increases, at the last. This problem will cause the
call drop when ue reaches the max tx power.
We can check the RTWP via some counters.
To reduce the RTWP, CQI feedback cyle parameter (2ms to 8ms), so larger period
creates less uplink interference
PreambleRetransMx : 2040
PowerRampStep: 21
This parameters can be set like this.

INTERFERENCE (C/A, C/I interference)
TIME Dispersion (Time dispersion is caused by the reflections. The MS uses all or
most of the received power, instead of only the direct signal, there is a larger
probability to decode the information. So the RxQual will be very bad perhaps.). This
can cause high timing advance
Low signal strength

BER REASONS
31)
Service-Based Handover
33)
The function of CAC is to decide whether to accept resource requests from UEs, such
as access, reconfiguration, and handover requests, depending on the resource status of
the cell. CAC is used to determine whether the system resources are sufficient to
accept a new users access request or not
The function of LDR is to reduce the cell load when the cell enters the basic
congestion state.
The purpose; optimizing cell resource distrubition and decreasing load level also
increasing admission succesful rate
35)
36)
Soft Handover
Soft handover occurs when a UE is in the overlapping coverage area of two cells.
Links to the two base stations can be established simultaneously and in this way the
UE can communicate with two base stations.
38)
Blind Handover
Blind handover means UE can directly handover to the neighboring cell without
measuring it. If the serving frequency signal is getting worse quickly, but UE can not
trigger a inter freq. measurement and hard ho in time . So blind ho might be used to
save the call.
This form of handover occurs when the base station hands off the UE by passing it the
details of the new cell to the UE without linking to it and setting the timing, etc of the
mobile for the new cell. In this mode, the network selects what it believes to be the
optimum GSM based station. The UE first locates the broadcast channel of the new
cell, gains timing synchronisation and then carries out non-synchronised intercell
handover.
After receiving event 1F of best cell from UE, the RNC would check if blind handover
neighbor is configured for the cell.
If multiple blind handover neighbors are configured, the RNC would perform blind
handover to the target cell with the highest priority
37)
Softer Handover
It is a form of soft handover that occurs when the new radio links that are added are
from the same NodeB. This occurs when several sectors may be served from the same
NodeB
39)
For hard handover the radio links are broken and then re-established.
When moving from one cell to an adjacent cell that may be on a different frequency.
When implementing a mode change, e.g. from FDD to TDD mode, for example.
When moving from one cell to another where there is no capacity on the existing
channel, and a change to a new frequency is required.
40)
RRC Fails
43)
Cell Reselection/Selection
The changing of cell on which UE camped in idle mode or in Cell FACH, Cell PCH,
URA PCH states. That assures UE camping the most suitable cell, receiving system
information and establishing an RRC connection on a best serving cell.
Cell Selection Parameters: Qqualmin, Qrxlevmin, Max allowed_Ue TxPwr,
Pcompensation
Cell Reselection Parameters: Sintrasearch, Sintersearch, Ssearchrat, Qoffset1sn (based
on Rscp) , Qoffset2sn (based on EcNo, Qhyst1s, Qhyst2s
42)
DRD
Directed Retry Decision (DRD) is used to select a suitable cell for a UE to access.
Different types of DRD can be adopted during different phases of service processing.
In this way, the system capacity can be maximized, and better services can be
provided.
41)
Hard Handover
CQI:
CQI (Channel Quality Indication) is the key indicator derived by UE for the radio
conditions. Node-B will determine the TFRC (TB size, modulation type and number
of spreading codes) based on UEs CQI.CQI is transmitted to Node-B through HSDPCCH uplink channel.
44)
Low HSDPA throughput could be a reason from several issues, not only
due to radio interface
UL interference
Iub
Channel elements
Before UE can perform inter freq or irat ho, it needs to have sometime to lock on
the control channel of other freq. or system. And listen to broadcast information.
At this point certain idle periods are created in radio frames, then transmission
and reception are halted for a short time to perform measurement in other
frequencies.. So it is called comp. mode. It starts with event 2D, it stops with
event 2F.
RF Problem:
Check invalid parameters
Check inter-RAT HO and if the failure point is in RNC border
Check the relative RB Setup failure counters to get more details on the failure
cause.
Congestion Problem:
Check the Admission Control thresholds.
