Introduction:

Objectives:

The purpose of the drive test to perform the RF design verification, identify any coverage and quality problems to optimise WCDMA network performance.

At this stage, the main focus is on fundamental end-to-end service accessibility target (e.g. Calls set up and drop rates) and on performance targets such as coverage related targets (such as CPICH RSCP and CPICH Ec/No), and HSDPA/HSUPA speed performance.

For this case it was needed each other from drive test data collection and also Physical site changes like tilting, antenna orientation and antenna height.

Site Verification Individual cell verification test : To investigate detail of site performance by checking all single sectors FT & DT

In FT RSCP (idle) Cell Selection & Reselection (Idle) MOC-MTC (Voice & Vedio) Multi-Rab (Voice & Vedio) Ping Test (202.134.12.137 for Robi) HSPA (HSDPA & HSUPA)

When the site is completely integrated, Drive tester team will start to perform site

investigation. The detail sub-activities are outlined below:

1. Rigging Audit2. Site Verification3. Site corrective action (cross feeder, inconsistent data, functionality

problem, etc.)4. Acceptance Test

The site has been built and integrated as planned and that the planned coverage has been achieved

Rigging Audit

Test Items in Rigging Audit:Antenna Installation Verification

- Azimuth- Height- Location- Cross-feeder/s

Rigging Tools :- Safety Belt- Compass- GPS

- Measurement tape- Digital Inclinometer

Site Audit required from the Rigger

1. Panoramic photos surrounding sites including antenna sectors/objective area

2. Ensure no blocking sectors from the main beam antenna3. Antenna mechanical/electrical tilt was in correct value4. Antenna was in correct orientation for the objective/target area5. Site Height6. Site Coordinates

• Voice / Video calls

• Verify on per cell basis for all carriers:• RSCP• EC/No• Scrambling Code• LAC / RAC• Cell ID• Etc.

• Data / Throughput test• HSDPA and HSUPA /

Internet Browsing• Verify on per cell basis for all

carriers:• RSCP• EC/No• Scrambling Code• LAC / RAC• Cell ID• Max/Ave Speed• Etc.

Static test At the best radio location required to perform for all carriers 1. Voice call to determine if any call failure or block calls 2. Video call successful 3. IRAT test for network reselection 4. Throughput R99/ HSDPA/HSUPA/Latency test using http / ftp and speed test. 5. Internet browsing successful

Mobility Test 1. Check intra cell HO in dedicated mode clockwise and anti clockwise 2 rounds for each direction 2. Check inter cell HO in dedicated mode for the 1st layer per cell both ways.
