The general process includes information collection, pre-planning, detailed planning, and cell planning. In the cell planning, main concerns are frequency planning, TA
There are several new frequency band options for LTE, some of which are available now or should be within the next few years. These include the 700MHz, AWS (Advanced Wireless
Services) and 2.6GHz bands, as well as the re-use of existing GSM 900MHz and 1800MHz bands. In addition, due to poor harmonization, there are other spectrum bands available, including: 850MHz, 1500MHz, 1700MHz and 1900MHz.
Application scenario: Adapt to situations with integrated operator frequency resources and consecutive frequency bands. If the frequency point bandwidth is wide (>=10MHz), it
can be used as the initial network construction mode of the urban or densely-populated urban areas. Basically satisfy the phase one capacity requirements. Use relatively narrow frequency point bandwidth (<=10MHz) to implement wide coverage of suburban and rural areas; thus reducing the initial network construction cost.
Application scenario:
Adapt to situations that the operator frequency resources are rich or frequency
The system capacity is dependent on the bandwidth of single frequency point. If the bandwidth of frequency point is wide (>=5MHz), it can be used on initial network construction of dense or common urban. If the bandwidth of frequency
point is narrow (<5MHz), it can be used on coverage of suburban and rural areas.
ICIC is a technology that mitigates inter-cell interference together with the scheduling and power control technologies. ICIC is applied at the Medium Access Control (MAC) layer.
ICIC restricts highly interfering CEUs within the orthogonal bands at the edge of cells or schedules the CEUs in neighboring cells at different points of time. In this way, ICIC mitigates inter-cell interference, increases the CEU throughput, and improves the system coverage. This document provides the details on ICIC.
TA: Similar to the location area and routing area in 2G/3G networks, the tracking area (TA) is used for paging. TA planning aims to reduce location update signaling caused
TA list : A list of TAIs that identify the tracking areas that the UE can enter without performing a tracking area updating procedure. The TAIs in a TAI list assigned by an MME to a UE pertain to the same MME area. In LTE system, if an UE changes the TAs in the TAI list, TA update wont be triggered.
In the Los Angles, there are several independent density area that connected by the main road (like island) . The UE may go across the different area through this road.
A TA coverage should be proper setting according to the capability of EPC When the suburban area and urban area are covered discontinuously, an independent TA
PCI: Physical Cell ID, is used to generate scrambling code to identify the different cell
PCI: Physical Cell ID, is used to generate scrambling code to identify the different cell
Differences between a scrambling code and a PCI: The scrambling code ranges from 0 to 511 whereas the PCI ranges from 0 to 503. In addition, the protocols do not have
specific requirements for scrambling code planning. Therefore, only the reuse distance needs to be ensured in scrambling code planning. For PCI planning, however, 3GPP protocols require that the value of PCI/3 should be 0, 1, or 2 in each eNB.

A CP is a copy of the end of an OFDM symbol to the start position of the symbol. Each CP generates a guard interval between two OFDM symbols.
The symbol energy that can be captured by the OFDM receiver depends on the CP length:
If the CP is longer than the multipath delay of an OFDM symbol, the OFDM
If the CP is shorter than the multipath delay of an OFDM symbol, the OFDM receiver can capture only some energy of the symbol.
The random access procedure is used in various scenarios, including initial access, handover, or re-establishment. Like other 3GPP systems the random access procedure
provides a method for contention and non-contention based access. The PRACH (Physical Random Access Channel) includes RA (Random Access) preambles generated from ZC (Zadoff-Chu) sequences.
There are five preamble formats defined which four of them are for FDD
Other preamble formats then Format 0 and Format 4 (TDD) are available only with the LOFD-001009 Extended Cell Access Radius feature.
* in fact, with the lowest configuration, where we assume maximum cell radius of 790m we assign only one value per cell. Further explanation on following slides.

Here is an another example for the root sequence planning, suppose the cell radius is 10km
The Ncs value is determined by the cell radius. If the cell radius is 9.8 km, the Ncs value is 76
The value of 839/76 is rounded down to 11, that is, each index can generate 11 preamble sequences. In this case, six root sequence indexes are required
The number of available root sequence indexes is 139 (0, 6, 12828) The available root sequence indexes are assigned to cells. The assignment principles are similar to those for PCIs.
Meaning: Indicates the ratio of UL subframes to DL subframes in a TDD cell. For details, see 3GPP TS 36.211.
