Summary
INTRODUCTION
Mobile Telecommunication is one of the fastest growing & most demanding of all telecommunication technologies
Quality of a Mobile Telecommunication Network is measurement by its Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) Increase in subscriber base Increase in number of Base stations Degradation of KPIs Degradation of NW Quality Customer dissatisfaction

CALL PROCESS
MOBILE ORIGINATING CALL Request for Service Authentication Ciphering Equipment Validation Call Setup Handovers Call Release MOBILE TERMINATING CALL PAGING Authentication Ciphering
Equipment Validation
Call Setup Handovers Call Release
TCH Congestion
TCH Assignment Success Handover Success Rate RX Quality DL TCH Completion Rate
Alarm Conditions
Frequent Registration near the Network borders
Poor RF Conditions
TCH CONGETION
After signaling is completed on the SDCCH Channel, when there are no free Traffic Channels, TCH Congestion occurs TCH Congestion occurs Insufficient Traffic Channels Hardware alarm conditions
HANDOVER
Handover ensures call to continue when a mobile moves from one cell to another Handover makes the mobile station really roam Handovers are caused by
RX_QUALITY
Quality of the ongoing call is measured by both Mobile Station and BTS. Two Types Downlink RX Quality Measured by Mobile Station Uplink RX Quality Measured by BTS RX Quality is affected by Poor frequency plan Poor Link Imbalance between BTS and MS Alarm conditions
Impact of Traffic
Increase in Traffic affects the Performance of Network Short Term Growth Sudden increase in traffic for short duration
OPTIMIZATION OF THE NW
Optimization is the process of improving the operation of the network To better utilize available infrastructure to provide the best possible quality of service to Customers. Optimization process maximizes the efficiency and operability, of the existing installed infrastructure. Optimization process integrates all infrastructures so that it operates seamlessly, it configures the network, sets parameters so as to maximize the performance of the network. An ideal Optimization process utilizes the minimum cost, time & resources to increase the efficiency of the network.
OPTIMIZATION TECHNIQUES
Optimization of the Network can be performed by Field Measurements Drive test conducted by measuring the various KPIs across the NW
SUMMARY
Increase in Subscriber base Increase in Traffic Increase in Congestion Degradation in KPI To Improve Customer Satisfaction, Quality of the NW should be improved Quality of NW depends on the KPIs To maintain the KPIs Target, continuous monitoring and Optimization of the NW is essential. Tuning of different Network parameters Enabling different features Physical changes in the Antenna direction Corrective actions based on drive test
Corrective actions based on Alarm report ,daily/weekly Network reports & statistics
