 Coverage, capacity, business and other related information are required and the total
planning process is divided into three stages: dimensioning, nominal planning and
detail planning.
 NB-IoT site selection could be mainly based on current GSM900 site location and
GSM1800/UMTS2100 site could also be added for enhanced coverage requirements

Permission
 E2E NB-IoT planning and optimization tools integrates HUAWEI 20+ years of wireless
network planning and optimization experience.

 Standalone deployment is suitable for free spectrum available and high coverage
requirements scenario;
 In-band deployment is suitable for future capacity expansion requirement scenario;
 Guardband deployment is suitable for LTE spectrum bandwidth no less than 10M and
without legal risk scenario;

Permission
 Co-site ratio will also influence guard band requirement and 1:1 co-site requires the
smallest guard band compared with other co-site ratio.

 2T are recommended for better NB-IoT network performance.

 Actual project configuration needs to consider the ability of the RF module and
specific network demands.

Permission
 NB-IoT and traditional GUL coverage planning process is basically the same, but NB-
IoT needs to consider diverse service requirements.

Permission

Permission
 Compared to GSM , NB-IoT has a gain of 20dB in terms of MCL

 GSM MCL is 144dB (GSM uplink limited system, uplink MCL:144dB, downlink
MCL:149dB)
 NB-IoT MCL is 164dB (downlink MCL is greater than or equal to 164dB, so the
system capability is 164dB
 * MCL： Maximum coupling loss refers to the maximum allowable loss from
transmitter to receiver and indicates the maximum coverage capability of the system.

Permission
 According to the actual NB-IoT service data rate requirements, select corresponding
coverage criteria.

 Traffic model and requirement analysis:

 According to the customer‘s demand and traffic model analysis, such as the
number of target connection, terminal location, traffic model, etc.
 Requirements on the whole network capacity:
 The overall network capacity requirements: target connections numbers of the
whole network.
 Analysis of single-cell capability :
 Carrier number, inter-site distance, MIMO mode, and user distribution ,etc.
 Capacity of a single site :
 Based on single site configuration, user distribution combined with the traffic
model of each user, calculating single site connections capacity.
 Number of sites :
 Site number is equal to the whole-network connections
requirements/connection capability of the single-site support.
