Bearer Establishment Success

Rate

As we saw in the Previous slides that Bearer Establishment is

composed of three parts:1. RRC Phase.
2. S1 Signaling Phase.
3. E-RAB Phase.

Now while checking all 3 phases in our network we found some

degradation in RRC Connection Success Rate which in turn is
bringing down the Bearer Establishment Success rate.
Firstly to identify the worst cells the RRC fails in number were taken
along with RRC success rate in percentage and then the worst cells
were found out.
Here we observed that there are only 3 repetitive cells which are
continuously having poor RRC Success rate with high RRC fails.
Those Cells are AC10372, AC11201 & AC10913. Apart from these
cells there was no major repetitive cell as every different day
different cells were the offenders.

AC10372 High RRC Connection

Fails

Comments:- This cell was observed with high RRC connection Failures and while
investigating it was observed that this is because of CAC (Call Admission Control) Fail.

Further on checking the Call Admission Control Parameters on both cell level &
eNodeB level few discrepancies were found which are represented in next slide
with correct values.

AC10913 RSRP Sample Distribution on Distance.

Ideally this Cell AC10913 should serve upto

this point after that neighbors will pick the
call. This point is at a distance of 2 KM but
in the below report we can see that even
after distance of 2.5 Km there are samples
in poor RSRP range.

Comments:- We can change qRxLevMin values to a higher value. Currently the

value is -120dBm, we can change it to -112 dBm so as to cut the poor coverage
samples which will help us to improve this KPI.

AC11201 RSRP Sample Distribution on Distance.

Ideally this Cell AC10913 should serve upto
this point after that neighbors will pick the
call. This point is at a distance of 1.8 KM but
in the below report we can see that even
after distance of 3 Km there are samples in
poor RSRP range.

S1AP Connection Establishment Success Rate (Cells AC11062

& AC90042)

Comments:- Cells AC11062 & AC90042 are the worst cells for S1AP connection fails and both
are escalated with GNOC for the resolution of issue. Still there is no update from GNOC over
this.
