    Cell Selection Parameters

    QrxlevMin (A_WCEL) Description: The minimum required RX level in the cell. This parameter is also used to

    create value for the parameter DeltaQrxlevmin to be sent in SIB3/4 when the usedvalue is < -115.

    Default value : -115 dBm

    QqualMin (A_WCEL) Description : The minimum required quality level in the cell (Ec/No) Default : -18 db

    UEtxPowerMaxPRACH (A_WCEL) Maximum UE transmission power on PRACH This parameter defines the maximum transmission power level a UE can use on

    PRACH. The value of the parameter also affects the cell selection and reselectionprocedures.

    The value of the parameter is sent to UE in the Cell selection and re-selection ofSystem Information Blocks 3 and 4 of the serving cell.

    Default : 21 dBm

    AAL2 resources availability in RNC (M800)RNC_602aAAL2 resource reservation success rate [%] :

    The transport resource request success ratio [%] KPI describes the average success rate of thetransport resource reservation attempts for all AAL2 type connections

    AAL2_SUCCEEDED - AAL2 signaling requests which have been successfully executed in A2SP

    AAL2_REJECTED - AAL2 signaling requests which have failed for any reason. E.g. signaling failed or

    uplink CAC rejectRES_EXT_CAP - Transport resources requests which are rejected by downlink CAC since there is notenough capacity in the external AAL2 path.

    RES_INT_CAP - Resource reservations which are rejected by downlink CAC since there are no RNC-internal AAL2 processing resources available

    RES_OTHER - Resource reservations which have failed for any other reason than CAC or signaling (forexample route analysis, parameter or DSP resource allocation problem)

    AAL2 Resource Reservation in RAN05(M800)

    M800 is useful for monitoring success of the resource reservation requests and able to point

    out different type of failures, such as

    Lack of Iub bandwidth

    Lack of RNC capacity

    AAL2 signaling failure

    M800 collects the statistics per AAL2 user plane VCC object, note that there can be several

    UP VCCs!

    The resource reservation is performed in such order that all CAC reservations for RNC

    internal and external (AAL2 path) resources are done before signaling

    If the CAC actions are successfully completed, the signaling is started and RNC asks

    BTS to arrange its resources accordingly

    If the CAC actions fail, the signaling phase is not started at all and the signaling

    counters are not aware of the connections rejected due to RNC AAL2 layer CAC

    There are also dedicated counters for HSDPA connections resource reservations

    The object of the measurement is the AAL2 path selected with ATM interface ID/VPI/VCI

    identifiers

    The statistics for the whole RNC (sum of all configured AAL2 paths counters) are

    available by selecting the measurement object as interface-0/VPI-0/VCI-0

    Also some failure situations, for example digit analysis failure, are updated only for

    0/0/0 object because the actual VCI is not known

    1. UTRAN_NOT_ABLE_EXEC_ISHHO_RT

    Description: Number of inter-system handover failures for RT due to UTRAN. --- The failurecan occur, for example, due to the following reasons: relocation preparation procedurefailure in the CN, or relocation resource allocation procedure failure in the target BSC.

    Updated: When the hard handover attempt fails before the serving RNC sends the handoverWhen the RNC receives an RANAP: RELOCATION PREPATION FAILURE message from the CN,or the RNC does not receive an RANAP: RELOCATION COMMAND message from the CN withina certain time period. This counter is updated only during inter-system handovers.

    2. UE_NOT_ABLE_EXEC_ISHHO_RT

    Description : The number of times when during inter-system handover for RT the source RNC

    has ordered the UE to use a configuration which the UE does not support. --- If the sourceRNC instructs the UE to use a configuration that it does not support, the UE will send afailure message to the source RNC. The handover procedure ends and the UE resumes normaloperation as if no handover attempt had occurred.

    Updated: When the source RNC receives an RRC: HANDOVER FROM UTRAN FAILURE messagefrom the UE, and the failure cause is "configuration unacceptable".

The hardhandover procedure ends and the UE resumes the normal operation as if no hard handoverattempt had occurred.

    Updated: When the source RNC receives an RRC: HANDOVER FROM UTRAN FAILURE messagefrom the UE, and the failure cause is not "configuration unacceptable". This counter isupdated only when the trigger reason is UE transmission power.

    ISHO AnalysisBreakdown ISHO analysis into three phases:

    Compressed mode performance (RNC_294c/RNC_295c)

    18/93

    Optimising Iub considering CID congestionFollowing performance indicators are proposed:

    M550: Average utilization of AAL2 connections - includes R99, SRB, HSDPA and returnchannels

    SUM_AAL2_CONNECTIONS / NBR_SAMPLES/ CID MAX = C4/C7/248

    M550: Max utilization of AAL2 connections during measurement period

    MAX_AAL2_CONNECTIONS/CID MAX = C6/248

    CID Utilization Monitoring Process

    The maximum CID utilisation is followed and forecasted to future so that there isenough time to introduce the new configuration before CID congestion occurs.

    Average CID utilisation helps in interpreting if a peak in the maximum value is normalgrowth or just load variation.

    CID congestion is usually a problem of special events when there are a lot of voicecalls and SMS

    CID congestion is probable in DCH&HSDPA, DCH and RT_DCH VCCs

    Unlikely in others

    CID Optimisation Actions and RU10 Features

    The CID congestion needs to be solved by adding a VCC DCH&HSDPA (former shared) UP VCC

    Likely to cause performance degradation to HSDPA if transmission capacity is not increase- HSDPA rates are limited to VCC PCR- UBR+ is not recommended with DCH&HSDPA VCC

    Path Selection CID congestion in RT VCC

    - Introduce a 2nd RT VCC- If additional capacity is not available then each VCC will get PCR_RT_NEW =PCR_RT_OLD/2- Capacity fragmentation may cause increased probability for AAL2 CAC blocking, with

    AMR the impact should not be big

    With this parameter you define the threshold for dual mode mobiles in idle state to searchfor and to measure UTRAN neighbour cells introduced in 3G Cell Reselection list when arunning average of the received downlink signal level (RLA_C) of the serving cell is below (0-7) or above (8-15) the threshold. This parameter is broadcast only on BCCH.

    If the parameter value is 7, dual mode mobiles in idle state measure always neighbourUTRAN cell(s). If the parameter value is 15, dual mode mobiles in idle state do not measureany of the neighbour UTRAN cells.

    GPRS-capable mobiles do not use this parameter if NCCR is active in the serving cell
