eRAN KPI Reference 2 Accessibility KPIs
2 Accessibility KPIs
About This Chapter
Accessibility KPIs are used to measure the probability that a user accesses the network and
requests services. Radio Resource Control (RRC) connection setups and E-UTRAN radio
access bearer (E-RAB) setups are the main procedures whose performance is measured by
accessibility KPIs.
2.1 RRC Setup Success Rate

2.2 RRC Setup Success Rate (Service)
2.3 RRC Setup Success Rate (Signaling)
2.4 S1SIG Connection Setup Success Rate
2.5 E-RAB Setup Success Rate (VoIP)
2.6 E-RAB Setup Success Rate
2.7 Call Setup Success Rate
2.8 RRC Setup Success Rate (eMTC)
2.1 RRC Setup Success Rate
Description
According to 3GPP TS 36.331, the RRC connection setup procedure is triggered by different
causes. A UE sets the setup cause in accordance with the information it receives from upper
layers. An RRC connection setup procedure with a cause mo-signaling is related to signaling.
An RRC connection setup procedure with a cause other than mo-signaling is related to
service.
The KPI is calculated based on the counters measured at the eNodeB when the eNodeB
receives an RRC Connection Request message from the UE, as shown in Figure 2-1. The
number of RRC connection attempts is collected by the eNodeB at measurement point A, and
the number of successful RRC connections is counted at measurement point C.

2.4 S1SIG Connection Setup Success Rate

Description
The S1SIG Connection Setup Success Rate KPI indicates the success rate of signaling
connection setups over the S1 interface. This KPI includes counters such as the number of
setup attempts of S1 signaling connections related to UEs and the number of successful setups
of S1 signaling connections related to UEs.
The number of setup times of S1 signaling connections related to UEs is incremented by 1

each time when the eNodeB sends an INITIAL UE MESSAGE to the MME or receives the
first message from the MME. INITIAL UE MESSAGE is the first S1 message that the
eNodeB sends to the MME. It contains the NAS configuration information related to UEs,
based on which the MME sets up S1 signaling connections for UEs. The first S1 message sent
by the MME may be INITIAL CONTEXT SETUP REQUEST, DOWNLINK NAS
TRANSPORT, or UE CONTEXT RELEASE COMMAND. Receiving any of these messages
indicates that the S1 signaling connection is set up successfully.
As shown at point A in Figure 2-4, the L.S1Sig.ConnEst.Att counter is incremented by 1

when the eNodeB sends an INITIAL UE MESSAGE to the MME.
As shown at point B in Figure 2-4, the L.S1Sig.ConnEst.Succ counter is incremented by 1

when the eNodeB receives the first S1 message sent from an MME after sending an INITIAL
UE MESSAGE to the MME.

4.21 Inter-Frequency Handover Out Success Rate (eMTC)
4.1 Intra-Frequency Handover Out Success Rate
Description
The Intra-Frequency Handover Out Success Rate KPI indicates the success rate of intra-
frequency handovers (HOs) from the local cell to neighboring E-UTRAN cells. The intra-
frequency HOs are classified into intra- and inter-eNodeB HOs.
Intra-eNodeB Outgoing HO
Intra-eNodeB outgoing HOs can be further classified into HO with RRC connection
reestablishment and HO without RRC connection reestablishment.
l Intra-eNodeB outgoing HO without RRC connection reestablishment
Figure 4-1 illustrates an intra-eNodeB outgoing HO without RRC connection
reestablishment, and the source and target cells operate at the same frequency. When the
eNodeB sends an RRC Connection Reconfiguration message containing the handover
command to the UE, the eNodeB counts the number of intra-eNodeB intra-frequency
HO outgoing execution attempts in the source cell at point B. When the eNodeB receives
an RRC Connection Reconfiguration Complete message from the UE, the eNodeB
counts the number of successful intra-eNodeB intra-frequency outgoing HO executions
in the source cell at point C.
Figure 4-1 Intra-eNodeB outgoing HO without RRC connection reestablishment
l Intra-eNodeB outgoing HO with RRC connection reestablishment

Figure 4-2 illustrates an intra-eNodeB outgoing HO with RRC connection
reestablishment, and the source and target cells operate at the same frequency. When the
eNodeB sends an RRC Connection Reconfiguration message containing the handover
command to the UE, the eNodeB counts the number of intra-eNodeB intra-frequency

outgoing HO execution attempts in the source cell at point B. When the eNodeB receives
an RRC Connection Reestablishment Complete message from the UE, the eNodeB
counts the number of successful intra-eNodeB intra-frequency outgoing HO executions
in the source cell at point C.
Figure 4-2 Intra-eNodeB outgoing HO with RRC connection reestablishment

Figure 4-3 and Figure 4-4 illustrate X2- and S1-based outgoing HOs with RRC
connection reestablishment to the source cell, respectively, and the source cell and target
cell operate on the same frequency. When the source eNodeB sends an RRC Connection
Reconfiguration message containing the handover command to the UE, the source
eNodeB counts the number of intra-frequency outgoing HO execution attempts in the
source cell at point B. When the source eNodeB receives a UE Context Release message
from the target eNodeB or receives a UE Context Release Command message from the
MME, indicating that the UE successfully accesses the target cell, the source eNodeB
counts the number of successful intra-frequency HO executions in the source cell at
point C.

9 NB-IoT Accessibility KPIs
About This Chapter
NB-IoT accessibility KPIs represent the probability that UEs access an NB-IoT network and
are used to evaluate the UE access performance in the NB-IoT network.
9.1 RRC Setup Success Rate (NB-IoT)

9.2 RRC Resume Success Rate (NB-IoT)
9.1 RRC Setup Success Rate (NB-IoT)
Description
According to 3GPP specifications[7], RRC connection setup procedures can be triggered by
the causes mt-Access, mo-Signalling, mo-Data, and mo-ExceptionData. A UE sets the setup
cause in accordance with the information it receives from upper layers. The RRC Setup
Success Rate (NB-IoT) KPI indicates the RRC connection setup success rate of an NB-IoT
cell or an entire NB-IoT network.
This KPI is measured by the eNodeB when UEs initiate RRC connection setup procedures.
As shown in Figure 9-1, the number of RRC connection setup attempts is counted by the
eNodeB at point A when the eNodeB receives RRC Connection Request messages from UEs.
The number of successful RRC connection setups is counted at point C.

In addition, when a UE-initiated RRC connection resume procedure fails, the eNodeB
transfers the resume procedure into an RRC connection setup procedure in accordance with
the 3GPP specifications. As shown in Figure 9-2, the L.NB.RRC.ResumeFail.RRCSetup
counter is incremented at point A when the eNodeB receives an RRC Connection Resume
Request message from a UE, and the RRC connection resume procedure fails and is
transferred into an RRC connection setup procedure. The number of successful RRC
connection setups is counted at point C.

9.2 RRC Resume Success Rate (NB-IoT)
Description
When there are UP-mode UEs in a commercial NB-IoT network, this KPI is used to evaluate
the performance related to RRC connection resumes for such UEs in the NB-IoT network. In
accordance with [7], a UE initiates an RRC connection resume request with a cause value such
as emergency, highPriorityAccess, mt-Access, mo-Signalling, mo-Data, delayTolerantAccess,
and mo-VoiceCall. The cause value is determined by the upper layer.
This KPI is measured at the eNodeB when UEs initiate RRC connection resume procedures.
As shown in Figure 9-3, the number of RRC connection resume requests is counted by the
eNodeB at point A when the eNodeB receives RRC Connection Resume Request messages
from UEs. The number of successful RRC connection resumes is counted at point C.

10.1 Service Drop Rate (NB-IoT)
Description
The Service Drop Rate (NB-IoT) KPI indicates the service drop rate of all services in an NB-
IoT network. When UEs perform transmission in CP mode for a service, the service drop rate
of such services is evaluated based on abnormal UE context releases. When UEs perform
transmission in UP mode for a service, the service drop rate of such services is evaluated
based on abnormal E-RAB releases. This KPI considers both cases. For details about its
calculation formula, see Table 10-1.
