Exclusion criteria for radio coverage: CPICH RSCP < -98 dBm
Network optimization: it can start after the complete network installation. If the network is big, the
Network Optimization can be split it into groups of clusters.
The main reasons for splitting into clusters and network optimization:
l Limit the number of sites to be considered for first optimization
l Easy split of tasks between different teams
l Start optimization in smaller areas before all sites in the network are up and running
Typical KPIs:
l AMR 12.2: long voice calls
n Number of call drops per hour, BLER
l Visio CS64: 2-minute calls
n Call success rate (number of calls maintained during 2 min/call attempts), BLER
l Packet background 64/384kbit/s
n Call success rate (number of calls maintained until the end of transfer/call attempts), FTP throughput,
BLER
l Accessibility: short successive AMR & PS calls
n Call setup success rate

The retransmission of the RRC Connection Setup message based on a quicker timer T351 than T300 will
reduce the call setup duration figures.
By reducing the need of the UE to submit another RRC Connection Request message as a result of the
expiry of timer T300, this feature will also have a positive impact on the RACH capacity.

Note: CPICH Ec/Io (quality) measurement and reporting is Alcatel-Lucent‘s choice. The measurements and
reported values are made on the current cell as well as a maximum number of neighboring cells. Another
quantity could be the CPICH RSCP (level or path loss).
In fact, Quality of the monitored cell or the worst active cell should be compared to the quality of the whole
Active Set computed as:
N AA,, j
Mbest,j is the quality measured on the strongest cell in the active set of carrier FDDused
Mi,j is the measurement of a cell in the active set of carrier FDDused
NA,j is the number of cells in the active set of carrier FDDused
Wx is a coefficient configurable per event
Range: 0 to 2 (step 0.1), default: 0 (2d_cm,2d_em, 2f, 3a)
But W=0 is used as a default value
RRC signaling
l MEASUREMENT REPORT, with the list of candidate cells to add to Active Set.
l Reiteration of MEASUREMENT REPORT for event 1a every repInterval1A, if the condition is still
fulfilled AND the maximum amountRep1A has not been reached.
RRC signaling
l Measurement Report, with the list of candidate cells to remove from the active set.
l The report is not necessarily repeated if the RNC does not send an ‘Active Set update’ message. In
accordance to 3GPP, Event 1b is not repeated by the UE on Layer 3, whereas Events 1a and 1c can
be repeated. Nevertheless, MEASUREMENT REPORT carrying Event 1b is protected by RLC
acknowledgement and when necessary, RLC repetitions.
Event 1c conditions
A monitored cell starts being candidate to replace the worst quality cell of the AS if
CPICH Ec / I 0 monitored
red cell
cel CI monitored
CIO red cell

CPICH Ec / I 0 worstst active

active cell ( H 1c 2)
timeToTrigger1C shall be comparable to timeToTrigger1A, since there is the same issue on “corner
effect” situations.
RRC signaling
MEASUREMENT REPORT Event 1c containing the candidate cells to add to the active set and the candidate
cells to remove from it. (Repetition of MR for Event 1c like for the MR for Event 1a).
The neighbouringCelloffset can be seen as a tool to move the cell border. It is important to note that
the offset is added before triggering events, i.e. the offset is added by the UE before evaluating if a
measurement report should be sent as opposed to offsets that are applied in the network and used for the
actual handover evaluation.
Note: The above drawing shows an example assuming that the maximum AS size is set to 2 and that all
the CIOs are set to 0 dB.

In IDLE mode:
l the UE shall measure the CPICH Ec/Io and CPICH RSCP level of the serving cell and evaluate the cell selection criterion S for the
serving cell at least every DRX cycle. The UE shall filter the CPICH Ec/Io and CPICH RSCP measurements of the serving cell
using at least 2 measurements, which are taken so that the time difference between the measurements is at least
TmeasureFDD/2 (see table below).

9 5.12 1 5.12 (1)
l If the UE has evaluated in Nserv consecutive DRX cycles that the serving cell does not fulfill the cell selection criterion S, the UE
shall initiate the measurements of all neighbor cells.
For instance:
n DRX cycle = 0.64 s.
n Every 0.64 s, criterion S for the serving cell is checked. If criterion S is not true in 4 consecutive DRX cycles, then the UE
shall start measurements of neighbor cells.
n To check criterion S, filtered value of CPICH RSCP and Ec/Io are computed from at least 2 layer-1 measurements
separated by at least 0.64 s (=1.28/2).

Total hysteresis
This parameter is used for all types of cell reselection (intra frequency, inter frequency and inter RAT). The
Qoffset_sn parameter can be adjusted per adjacency to “adapt” the quality hysteresis Qhyts1 on a specific adjacency.
Qhysts2
Hysteresis is added to CPICH Ec/No of the serving cell during cell selection/reselection. It is used to avoid ping-pong
effect. This parameter is broadcast only if the cell selection/reselection quality measurement is set to CPICH Ec/No.
Alcatel-Lucent recommended value is 2 dB, which corresponds to 4 dB hysteresis.
This parameter is used for intra- and inter-frequency cell reselection. Qoffset_sn2 can be adjusted per adjacency to
“adapt” the quality hysteresis Qhyts2 on a specific adjacency.
Treselection
The Treselection default value is 1 s.
In GPRS STAND-BY or READY state, if PBCCH is activated and the UE is PBCCH capable, the UE monitors
Packet System Information (PSI) broadcast on the PBCCH and decides to perform inter-RAT measurements
according to the Qsearch_P parameter, whose definition and usage is similar to Qsearch_I.

In Alcatel-Lucent BSS, it’s broadcast in SI2ter on BCCH (FDD_Qoffset) and in PSI 3quater on PBCCH

DL RLF detected at L1
l Detected by the UE
l An RL fails, when the L1 synchronization cannot be maintained, i.e. when the quality of the decoding
at physical layer is not sufficient anymore to handle the TPC command in a reliable way.
l InW-CDMA systems, it becomes urgent to cancel an RL that cannot be power-controlled anymore,
since it may contribute to the interference and thus, the cell load, either unnecessarily, or even
damaging the cell quality
l If
T313 expires, the UE considers a "Radio link failure": it clears the dedicated physical channel
configuration and performs the specified actions for the ongoing procedures.
l Then,the UE launches a CELL UPDATE procedure using the "radio link failure“ cause, in order to try
saving the call with a re-establishment of the connection to UTRAN.

l InW-CDMA systems, it becomes urgent to cancel an RL that ca not be power-controlled anymore,
since it may contribute to the interference and thus, the cell load, either unnecessarily, or even
damaging the cell quality.
l IftRLFailure expires, the Node B considers a "Radio link failure": it indicates to the SRNC which radio
link set is out-of-sync. When the RL Failure procedure is triggered, the state of the radio link set
changes to the out-of-sync state.
l If
the failed RL was the last RL of the Active Set then the SRNC launches an RRC connection re-
establishment procedure in order to avoid dropping the ongoing calls.
n An RLC unrecoverable error occurs, when the number of retransmissions for a Reset PDU
has exceeded maxNbrOfResetRetrans, or a protocol error occurs.
n The UE in Cell-DCH or Cell-FACH sends a Cell Update message on CCCH (RB 0) to notify
UTRAN of an unrecoverable error in the RLC entities by setting the cause value to RLC
unrecoverable error and setting the AM_RLC error indication for RB 2, 3 & 4 or RB > 4 to true.
n The recovery algorithm is then similar to the one implemented for RL failure. If the call cannot
be recovered, the call is dropped with an IU RELEASE, cause ‘Radio Connection with UE Lost’.
n At reception of a Cell Update with the IE RLC unrecoverable error set to true, the
SRNC resets the URBs if an unrecoverable error is indicated by the UE on URB. If the
UE indicates an unrecoverable error on the SRBs, the RNC releases the RRC
connection.
Duration = 10 min
Explanation
l Once radio synchronization is lost, the UE takes around 5 seconds to detect the RL failure
((16+N313) x 10 ms+T313), then it takes around 2 seconds to reselect a cell and perform a Cell
Update procedure.
So it means at least 7 seconds before RL Recovery starts.
l When maxDAT= 15, the UE may retransmit during 3 seconds (maxDAT x pollingTimer = 15 x
200 ms) and then waits for 1.2 second ((maxNbrOfResetRetrans +1) x resetTimer = (3+1) x
30 0ms) before resetting RLC.
So it means at least 4.2 seconds before RLC reset.
Therefore, the RL Failure cannot be recovered.
l When maxDAT = 35, the UE may retransmit during 7 seconds (maxDAT x pollingTimer = 35 x
200 ms) and then waits for 1.2 second ((maxNbrOfResetRetrans +1) x resetTimer = (3+1) x
300 ms) before resetting RLC.
So it means at least 8.2 seconds before RLC reset.
n Therefore, the RL Failure can be recovered.
n If the UE has a message to transmit in UL, which is of course not always the case, it will
manage to avoid the RLC reset if the first Cell Update is successful.

Hybrid Iub or Native IP Iub (xCcm on NodeB and GIGe on RNC needed): In order to achieve high
throughput, ATM BW (8 E1s) is not sufficient and Hybrid Iub is recommended.
l Correct Hybrid Iub setting:
n RadioAccessService/ HsdpaRncConf /minimumHsdschCreditPerTtiInBytes = 1456
n RadioAccessService/ HsdpaRncConf / maxIubHsDschFrameSize = 1472
l Correct ATM setting:
n RadioAccessService/ HsdpaRncConf /minimumHsdschCreditPerTtiInBytes = 2296
n RadioAccessService/ HsdpaRncConf / maxIubHsDschFrameSize = 1520
n Maximum value for txQueueLimit of Access Node according to the ATM card
prohibitedStatusTimer:
l For Cat6, Cat8, Cat10 and generally speaking the UEs using Fixed RLC PDU size:
n DlRlcAckMode/prohibitedStatusTimer to 30 ms.
l For Cat13 to Cat24 using Flexible RLC PDU size:
n DlRlcAckFlexibleMode/prohibitedStatusTimer to 10 ms
n Therotically, all categories of UE are able to operate with Flexible RLC PDUs, provided that they
run with Release 7 or above software. In practice, in the field, the UEs operating with Flexible
RLC PDUs are the high-rate capable UEs (e.g. Cat14 and Cat24).
