    1-1

    1 OverviewWith the initial target of downlink peak data rate reaching above 100 Mbit/s, thenext-generation Long Term Evolution (LTE) system is developed to meet the increasing

    demands on higher data rate due to fast expansion of multimedia applications. For a newwireless system like the LTE, a set of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are defined for the

    evaluation of system performance, in particular the performance of the evolved Radio AccessNetwork (eRAN). The comparison between the LTE and the legacy systems such as UMTS or

    CDMA2000 system is also specified in this document.

    This document specifies a set of eRAN KPIs to evaluate the performance of the LTE system.Some counters necessary for the KPI calculation are also described in details. Given that the

    LTE is a new system, the KPIs in this document are drafted ones and subject to change. KPIsshould be updated according to the experiences of commercial network management and

    radio network optimization.

    The KPIs in this document are classified into categories based on the measurement targets:accessibility, retainability, mobility, service integrity, utilization, availability, and traffic KPIs.

    This document is organized as follows: firstly we briefly describe the KPI specificationtemplate. Then detailed specifications of each KPI are described in terms of the

    aforementioned seven categories. Finally we provide definitions of relevant counters inChapter11 Counter List.

    2 Template for KPI DefinitionAccording to the template, the KPI is defined in terms of the following items. Each KPI hasseveral sub-clauses.

    KPI name (clause header)

    It is a descriptive name of the KPI.

    Descriptions

    It provides a brief overview of the KPI.

    Measurement scope

    It specifies the KPI monitoring scope. In general, the measurement is made in terms of

    cells. The KPI value reflects the performance in a cell or a cluster. The associatedcounters can be obtained from cell statistics. In this document, cluster indicates a group

    of cells selected by user.

    Formula

    It is used to calculate the KPI. Generally the formula consists of several counters that are

    specified in other sub-clauses.

    Associated counters

    It contains counters used in the formula. Chapter11 Counter Listprovides the counter

    descriptions.

    3-1

    3 Accessibility KPIsAccessibility KPIs are used to measure the probability whether services requested by a usercan be accessed within specified tolerances in the given operating conditions. The service

    provided by the E-UTRAN is defined as EPS/ERABs. Radio Resource Control (RRC)connection and System Architecture Evolution (ERAB) setup are the main procedures for

    accessibility KPIs. The accessibility KPIs can be calculated per cell or cluster. The KPIs at thecluster level are calculated by aggregating all cell counters of the same cluster.

    3.1 RRC Setup Success Rate (Service)

    3.1.1 Description

    According to Reference

    [1]

    , the RRC connection setup procedure is triggered by variousdifferent causes as identified by the establishmentCause field in RRCConnectionRequest

    message: emergency, highPriorityAccess, mt (Mobile terminating)-Access, mo (Mobile

    Originating)-Signaling, and mo-Data. The UE sets the establishmentCause in accordance withthe information received from upper layers. Causes except mo-signaling are categorized asservice-related ones. The mo-signaling cause is a signaling-related cause. This KPI evaluates

    the RRC setup success rate with service-related causes in a cell or cluster Involved.

    The KPI is calculated based on the counters measured at eNodeB when the eNodeB receivesan RRC Connection Request from the UE, as shown inFigure 3-1.To illustrate the KPI

    calculation procedures, we briefly discuss how the related counters (number of RRCConnection setup attempts (service) and number of successful RRC setup (service)) are

    collected. The number of RRC Connection attempts is collected by the eNodeB at

    measurement point A and the number of successful RRC connection is counted atmeasurement point C. The related counters are discussed in Chapter11 Counter List.

    3.2.1 Description

    This KPI evaluates the RRC setup success rate of the signaling-related cause (mo-signaling)

    in a cell or a cluster.

    Like the RRC Setup Success Rate (service), this KPI is used to calculate the RRC setupsuccess rate only when the establishmentCause field is set to mo-signaling in a cell or a

    cluster.

    3.3 ERAB Setup Success Rate (VoIP)

    3.3.1 Description

    This KPI is used to evaluate the ERAB setup success rate of the VoIP service in a cell or acluster.

    The counters related to this KPI are measured when the eNodeB receives an ERAB SetupRequest message or an Initial Context Setup Request message from the MME, as shown inFigure 3-2 according to Reference

    [2]and Reference

    [3]. The ERAB is part of the Evolved

    Packet Service (EPS) bearer. According to Reference[4]

    , an ERAB is one or more Service

    Data Flows between UE and EPC. The ERAB identity remains unique for the UE even if theUE-associated logical S1-connection (S1 bearer) is released during periods of user inactivity.The ERAB consists of both ERAB radio bearer (between eNodeB and UE, same as the radio

    bear defined in the EPS bearer) and corresponding S1 bearer (between eNodeB and MME).

    Figure 3-2 andFigure 3-3 show two scenarios: MME-initiated ERAB setup (Scenario A) andUE-triggered ERAB setup (Scenario B). Scenario B is triggered by the radio bearer setup.

    Initial Context Setup Request messages are exchanged between eNodeB and MME. If theERAB Setup Request message or Initial Context Setup Request message requires multiple

    ERAB setups at the same time, specific counters are incremented for each ERAB .

    4 Retainability KPIsRetainability KPIs are used to evaluate the network capability to retain services requested bya user for a desired duration once the user is connected to the services. These counters can be

    calculated per cell or per cluster. The KPIs at the cluster level can be calculated byaggregating all the cell counters. Retainability KPIs are important in evaluating whether the

    system can maintain the service quality at certain level.

    4.1 Call Drop Rate (VoIP)

    4.1.1 Description

    This KPI can be used to evaluate the call drop rate of the VoIP service in a cell or a cluster.

    The call drop rate is calculated by monitoring the VoIP ERAB abnormal release rate. EachERAB is associated with the QoS information. The voice service can be distinguished by the

    specific QCI = 1.

    ERAB includes both the ERAB radio bearer and corresponding S1 bearer. Any abnormalrelease on either bearer causes call drop and therefore is counted into the call drop rate. The

    abnormal release is identified by the CauseIE defined in Reference[3]

    . The Call Drop Rate

    (CDR) is defined as Abnormal ERAB release / All released ERAB.

    Note that there are two different procedures indicating the ERAB release: they are indicated

    through E-RAB Release Indication and UE Context Release Command as shown inFigure

    4-1.

    As shown inFigure 4-1,the abnormal ERAB release counter is incremented when the

    eNodeB sends an E-RAB Release Indication to the MME or receives an UE Context ReleaseCommand message from the MME and the release causes are not Normal Release, User

    Inactivity, Partial Handover, or Handover triggered. If the message contains several ERAB IDIEs (in the ERAB to Be Release List IE), the counter will be incremented for each individual

    ERAB.

    For the eNodeB-initiated abnormal ERAB release, the eNodeB knows whether it is a normalor abnormal ERAB release.

    5 Mobility KPIsMobility KPIs are used to evaluate the performance of E-UTRAN mobility, which is criticalto the customer experience. Several categories of mobility KPIs are defined based on the

    following handover types: intra-frequency, inter-frequency, and inter-Radio AccessTechnology (RAT).

    5.1 Intra-frequency Handover Out Success Rate

    5.1.1 Description

    This KPI can be used to evaluate the intra-frequency Handover out success rate in a cell or a

    cluster. The intra-frequency handover (HO) includes both inter-eNodeB and intra-eNodeB

    scenarios. To illustrate the KPI calculation, we briefly discuss how the related counters(number of intra-frequency HO attempts and number of successful intra-frequency HO

    attempts) are collected.

    Intra-eNodeB HO scenario is shown inFigure 5-1.The HO attempt counter is collected atpoint B. When the eNodeB sends an RRCConnectionReconfiguration message to the UE, it

    decides to perform a handover. The eNodeB counts the number of attempts to perform

    intra-eNodeB intra-frequency HO in the source cell. The success HO counters are collected atpoint C. The eNodeB counts the number of successful intra-eNodeB intra-frequency HOs inthe source cell when the eNodeB receives the RRCConnectionReconfigurationComplete

    message from the UE.

    Figure 5-1Scenario for Intra-frequency Intra-eNB HO

    Two scenarios are available for the inter-eNodeB HO, as shownFigure 5-2 andFigure 5-3.The HO attempts are collected at point B. When the Source-eNodeB (S-eNodeB) sends anRRCConnectionReconfiguration message to the UE, it decides to perform an inter-eNodeB

    HO. In this KPI, the source and target cells of the handover are at the same frequency. The

    number of inter-eNodeB intra-frequency HO attempts is measured at the source cell.

    The number of inter-eNodeB intra frequency success HOs is collected at point C as shown in

    Figure 5-2 andFigure 5-3.During a handover with the source and target cells at the same

    frequency, the number of successful inter-eNodeB intra-frequency HOs is measured in thesource cell when the S-eNodeB receives a UE Context Release message from the

    Target-eNodeB (T-eNodeB) or a UE Context Release Command message from the MME,indicating that the UE access to the T-eNodeB is successful.

    5.2.1 Description

    This KPI can be used to evaluate the inter-frequency handover out success rate in a cell or a

    cluster. Note that the measurement points for the associated counters are the same as those forthe intra-frequency HO scenario described in5.1.1 .The target LTE cell operates at thefrequency different from that of the source LTE cell, which is the only difference.

    As shown inFigure 5-1,if the source and target cells at different frequencies are controlled bythe same eNodeB, the eNodeB counts the number of intra-eNodeB inter-frequency HOattempts at point B and the successful intra-eNodeB inter-frequency HOs at point C in the

    source cell. As shown inFigure 5-2,if the handover source and target cells are at different

    frequencies, the eNodeB counts the number of inter-eNodeB inter-frequency HO attempts atpoint B and the successful intra-eNodeB inter-frequency HOs at point C in the source cell.

    9 Traffic KPIsTraffic KPIs are used to measure the traffic volume on the LTE Radio Access Network (RAN).Based on traffic types, the traffic KPIs are classified into the following categories: radio

    bearers, downlink traffic volume, and uplink traffic volume.

    9.1 Radio Bearers

    9.1.1 Description

    The radio bearers KPIs consist of ten sub-KPIs, one is for the total of radio bearers and the

    other nine are for nine QCIs. This set of KPIs can be used to evaluate the average radio

    bearers in a cell or a cluster. The radio bearer for each QCI is based on the number of active

    RRC connections for each QCI according to the QCI defined in the QoS information.
