RAN KPI Reference Summary

1.1 Changes in the RAN KPI Reference


This chapter describes the changes made in the RAN KPI Reference.

1.2 Accessibility
Accessibility is the ability of a user to obtain the requested service from the system. RRC
connection and RAB setup are the main procedures of accessibility.

1.3 Availability
Availability KPIs mainly indicate the utilization for several kinds of network resources such as
Radio, bandwidth or CPU Load.

1.4 Coverage
Coverage KPIs are used for monitoring cell Interference status and Soft Handover Gain in an
RNC or a cluster.

1.5 Mobility
Mobility KPIs are used to monitor the successful ratio for several kinds of handover features or
service mode changing in difference scenarios.

1.6 Retainability
Retainability is defined as the ability of a user to retain its requested service for the required
duration once connected. The RNC level KPIs can be calculated by aggregating all the cell
counters and Iur counters.

1.7 Service Integrity


Service Integrity KPIs mainly indicate the service capabilities for PS/HSPA throughput during
busy hours in each cell and the service UL Average BLER for evaluating the UL BLER value
of services in each cell.

1.8 Traffic
Traffic-related KPIs are used to check the circulated traffic such as CS Equivalent Erlang, PS
Traffic, and Mean UE number for various kinds of services in an RNC or a Cluster.

in Idle Mode/Number of Paging Messages to UEs in Idle Mode) x 100%

Description This KPI is used to check the successful paging responses to the pagings
from the Core Network (CN) in one RNC.
The Attempt Paging Procedure starts when the CN sends a PAGING
message to the RNC, and is complete when the UE in idle mode receives
the PAGING TYPE 1 message from the RNC.
The Successful Paging Procedure is complete when the RNC receives an
RRC CONNECTION REQUEST message from the UE in idle mode.

Note In redirection-based CSFB scenarios, the VS.RANAP.Paging.Succ.IdleUE


counter is measured when the following conditions are met: (1) A UE is
redirected to a UMTS network after receiving a paging message on a LTE
network. (2) The UE then sends the RNC an RRC Connection Request
message with the cause value "Terminating Conversational Call." Under
these circumstances, the calculated Iu paging success rate is greater than its
actual value and may even be greater than 100%.

1 RAN KPI Reference

Description Compared with the KPI formula for "RRC Setup Success Ratio", this
formula includes statistics of connection setups for cell updates initiated by
UEs in the CELL_PCH or URA_PCH state.
If the PCH state switch is turned on, UEs will remain in the always online
state. If a UE has not transmitted data for a certain period of time, it will transit
from the CELL_FACH or CELL_DCH state to the CELL_PCH or
URA_PCH state, instead of the idle mode. In this way, the number of RRC
and RAB setup attempts and successful RRC connection setups decreases
dramatically, affecting the RRC Setup Success Ratio.
UEs do not transmit data in the CELL/URA_PCH state or idle mode. When
they need to transmit data, they will transit to the CELL_FACH or
CELL_DCH state. The state transition procedure from CELL/URA_PCH to
CELL_FACH/CELL_DCH is the same as the RRC and RAB setup
procedures. Therefore, the statistics of connection setups for cell updates
initiated by UEs in the CELL_PCH or URA_PCH state are included in the
formula for calculating the RRC Setup Success Ratio (PCH).
Description of RRC Setup Success Ratio (PCH) for service requests.
l Number of RRC Connection Attempts (PCH)
– After the RNC receives an RRC CONNECTION REQUEST message
from a UE, this counter is measured in the cell that the UE camps on
based on the cause for the RRC connection setup request. The causes
include the following: Conversational Call, Streaming Call,
Background Call, Interactive Call, Originating Subscribed Traffic
Call, Emergency Call, High Priority Signaling, Low Priority
Signaling, Cause Unknown, and Call Re-Establishment.
– After the RNC receives a CELL UPDATE message from a UE in the
CELL/URA_PCH state, this counter is measured in the cell that the
UE camps on when the following conditions are met: The value of the
Cell update cause IE carried in this message is "uplink data
transmission" or "paging response". The value of the Establishment
Cause IE is "Originating Conversational Call", "Originating Streaming
Call", "Originating Interactive Call", "Originating Background Call",
"Originating Subscribed traffic Call", "Terminating Conversational

Note The RNC-level KPI is obtained by aggregating values of cell-level counters.


CELLUPDATE_MEASUREMENT_OPT_SWITCH under the
OptimizationSwitch3 parameter in the SET URRCTRLSWITCH
command must be selected when you use this KPI. A UE that has initiated a
cell update request in cell 1 sends another CELL UPDATE message in cell
2 while waiting for a response from the RNC or before the UE sends a
response. The cell update procedure completes in cell 2. In this case, the cell
update attempt is measured twice. After this switch is turned on, only the cell
update attempt in cell 2 is measured.
Counters listed below measure the number of RRC connection requests
retransmitted by a UE due to insufficient resources. The number of RRC
connection requests (PCH) retransmitted in this scenario is subtracted from
the total number of RRC connection attempts (the denominator in the
formula). As a result, the RRC Setup Success Ratio (PCH) increases. For CS

Description Compared with the KPI formula for "1.2.4 Radio Access Success Ratio",
this formula includes statistics of connection setups for cell updates initiated
by UEs in the CELL_PCH or URA_PCH state.
If the PCH state switch is turned on, UEs will remain in the always online
state. If a UE has not transmitted data for a certain period of time, it will transit
from the CELL_FACH or CELL_DCH state to the CELL_PCH or

affecting the Radio Access Success Ratio.
UEs do not transmit data in the CELL/URA_PCH state or idle mode. When
they need to transmit data, they will transit to the CELL_FACH or
CELL_DCH state. The state transition procedure from CELL/URA_PCH to
CELL_FACH/CELL_DCH is the same as the RRC and RAB setup
procedures. Therefore, the statistics of connection setups for cell updates
initiated by UEs in the CELL_PCH or URA_PCH state are included in the
formula for calculating the Radio Access Success Ratio (PCH).
For the RRC connection setup procedure involved in this KPI, see "RRC

Description Compared with the KPI formula for "1.2.6 PS Radio Access Success
Ratio", this formula includes statistics of connection setups for cell updates
initiated by UEs in the CELL_PCH or URA_PCH state for setting up PS
services.
If the PCH state switch is turned on, UEs will remain in the always online
state. If a UE has not transmitted data for a certain period of time, it will transit
from the CELL_FACH or CELL_DCH state to the CELL_PCH or
URA_PCH state, instead of the idle mode. As a result, the number of RRC
and RAB setup attempts and successful setups decreases dramatically,
affecting the PS Radio Access Success Ratio.
UEs do not transmit data in the CELL/URA_PCH state or idle mode. When
they need to transmit data, they will transit to the CELL_FACH or
CELL_DCH state. The state transition procedure from CELL/URA_PCH to
CELL_FACH/CELL_DCH is the same as the RRC and RAB setup
procedures. Therefore, the statistics of connection setups for cell updates
initiated by UEs in the CELL_PCH or URA_PCH state are included in the
formula for calculating the Radio Access Success Ratio (PCH).

Description Compared with the KPI formula for "1.2.17 HSDPA RAB Setup Success
Ratio", this formula includes the statistics of channel switches from
CELL_PCH/URA_PCH/CELL_FACH to HSDPA channels.
If the PCH or FACH state switch is turned on, UEs will remain in the always
online state. If UEs remain in the low traffic state for a certain period of time,
they will transit from the CELL_DCH state to the CELL_FACH state. If UEs
have no data to transmit, they will transit from the CELL_DCH or
CELL_FACH state to the CELL/URA_PCH state, instead of the idle mode.
In this way, the number of HSDPA RAB setup attempts and successful setups
decreases dramatically, affecting the HSDPA RAB Setup Success Ratio.
When UEs have a large amount of data to transmit, they will transit from the
CELL_FACH or CELL/URA_PCH state to the CELL_DCH state, and
establish services on HSDPA channels. This procedure is the same as the
HSDPA RAB setup procedure. Therefore, the number of channel switches
from the CELL/URA_PCH or CELL_FACH state to HSDPA is included in
the formula for calculating the HSDPA RAB Setup Success Ratio (CCH).

Description This KPI monitors the CS access success rate of UEs in the CELL_PCH or
URA_PCH state.
If the switch for state transition to the CELL_PCH or URA_PCH state is
turned on on the network, smartphones will be always online. If there is no
data transmission for a certain period, the UE will transition to the
CELL_PCH or URA_PCH state instead of the idle mode. In this way, the UE
initiates new services in the CELL_PCH or URA_PCH state.
When there are a large number of smartphones, this KPI can better reflect
user experience.
l The procedure for cell update attempts initiated by UEs in the CELL_PCH
or URA_PCH state is as follows: When receiving from the UE a CELL
UPDATE message with the cause value "uplink data transmission" or
"paging response", the RNC calculates the respective number of cell
update attempts based on the values of "establish cause" contained in the
CELL UPDATE message. This counter is not measured for a CELL
UPDATE message retransmitted by the UE.
l The procedure for successful cell updates initiated by UEs in the
CELL_PCH or URA_PCH state is as follows: When receiving from the
UE a CELL UPDATE message with the cause value "uplink data
transmission" or "paging response", the RNC determines that the cell
update procedure is successful if it receives a response from the UE after
sending the CELL UPDATE CONFIRM message to the UE. Then the
RNC calculates the respective number of successful cell updates based on
the values of "establish cause" contained in the CELL UPDATE message.
For details about the cause values of the CELL UPDATE message, see

the total number of released WB AMR calls. It reflects the retainability of
WB AMR calls in an RNC or a cluster.
When a fault occurs, the RNC sends the CN an IU RELEASE REQUEST or
RAB RELEASE REQUEST message. The number of abnormally released
WB AMR calls is measured in the best cell where the UE camps on when the
RNC receives an IU RELEASE COMMAND or RAB ASSIGNMENT
REQUEST message whose cause value is not "User Inactivity", "Normal
Release", "Successful Relocation", or "Network Optimization".

Description Compared with 1.6.9 PS Call Drop Ratio, this KPI deducts abnormal RAB
releases caused by UE's state transition to CELL_PCH or URA_PCH.
Smartphones stay in the always-online state in networks when state transition
to PCH is enabled. If state transition to PCH is enabled and there is no data
transmission for a specific period of time, these UEs transit from connected
mode to the PCH state instead of idle mode, resulting in abnormal PS RAB
releases. As a result, the number of normal PS RAB releases decreases and
the value of denominator Total Number of PS RAB Releases is reduced.
The corresponding KPI deteriorates if the original formula for calculating PS
Call Drop Ratio is used.
A RAB release caused by UE's state transition from CELL_DCH to
CELL_PCH or URA_PCH without PS data transmission should be
considered as a normal RAB release because the transition has no impact on
user experience. Therefore, PCH-related abnormal RAB releases caused by
state transition from CELL_DCH to CELL_PCH or URA_PCH are not taken
into account for calculating PS Call Drop Ratio.

Note For 3900 series NodeBs, it is recommended that you use the NodeB counters
in the following formula to calculate the single user throughput. These NodeB
counters measure the valid throughput when data exists in the user buffer
every transmission time interval (TTI). In this case, the value of this KPI is
more accurate for UEs. The throughput of a single user at the NodeB MAC-
hs layer is calculated using the following formula:
VS.HSDPA.DataOutput.Traffic/
(VS.HSDPA.DataTtiNum.User x 2)
NOTE
VS.HSDPA.DataOutput.Traffic measures the total traffic volume of the MAC-hs/
MAC-ehs PDUs with ACKs from all users in a TTI within a measurement period. (Unit :

When the data (including SRB and TRB data) of HSUPA UEs is received in
HSUPA active cells, the NodeB measures the total data that UEs successfully
receive at the MAC-e/i layer in the serving cell. At the same time, the NodeB
measures the number of TTIs when at least one HSUPA UE is transmitting
data to obtain the total transmission duration. (If there are multiple UEs
transmitting data in a TTI, this number is increased by one.) At the end of the
measurement period, the NodeB divides the total successfully received data
by the total transmission duration to obtain the average throughput at the
MAC-e/i layer in one HSUPA cell. When a UE performs a softer handover,
the data of this UE is calculated in both the original and target cells.

1.8 Traffic
Traffic-related KPIs are used to check the circulated traffic such as CS Equivalent Erlang, PS
Traffic, and Mean UE number for various kinds of services in an RNC or a Cluster.

1.8.1 CS Equivalent Erlang of RNC

Table 1-130 CS Equivalent Erlang of RNC

Name CS Equivalent Erlang of RNC

Description VS.CSLoad.Erlang.Equiv.RNC
This KPI provides the equivalent Erlang values of all the services in the CS
domain in the RNC.
The RNC periodically takes the samples from the equivalent Erlang values
of all the services in the CS domain. At the end of the measurement period,
the RNC divides the accumulated equivalent Erlang values by the number
of samples to obtain the mean equivalent Erlang values of all the services
in the CS domain.
Each time a CS domain service is established, the RNC converts its rate to
the equivalent Erlang, and then increases the equivalent Erlang of the CS
domain in the current RNC.
Each time a CS domain service is released, the RNC converts its rate to the
equivalent Erlang and decreases the equivalent Erlang of the CS domain in
the current RNC.
VS.CSLoad.MaxErlang.Equiv.RNC
This KPI provides the maximum equivalent Erlang values of all the services
in the CS domain within the RNC.
The RNC periodically takes a sample from the equivalent Erlang values of
all the services in the CS domain. At the end of the period, the RNC
calculates the maximum equivalent Erlang of all the services in the CS
domain within the RNC.
Each time a CS domain service is established, the RNC converts its rate to
the equivalent Erlang, and then increases the equivalent Erlang of the CS
domain in the current RNC.
Each time a CS domain service is released, the RNC decreases the
equivalent Erlang of the CS domain in the current RNC.
