Uplink Coverage Analysis

The document discusses analyzing cell coverage data obtained from drive tests to identify issues. It describes checking for weak coverage cells by analyzing signal strength data, and investigating potential causes like blocked antennas or inadequate drive test routes. It also describes checking for cross-cell coverage issues where a cell's signals are too widely distributed, potentially due to high antenna placement or improper tilt, and provides solutions. Additionally, it discusses analyzing data for cells missing primary pilots and defining quality standards for uplink coverage based on UE transmit power levels.

______ ____ _____ _______ Cell primary pilot analysis is analyzing cell scramble information obtained in DT.

The content to be checked include (by Assistant): _ Weak coverage cell Start Assistant. Analyze scanner-based RSCP for SC, and you can obtain the signal distribution of each cell (scramble). According to DT data, if the scramble signals of a cell are not present, probably some sites cannot transmit signals during test. If a cell cannot transmit signals during DT, the DT of relative areas must be re-performed. Very weak coverage might be result of blocked antennas, so you must check the survey report of the site and check installation of on-site antennas. No (poor) coverage cell might be due to that the DT route does not cover the cell coverage area. In this case, reevaluate the DT route for the rationality and perform DT again. _ Cross-cell coverage cell Start Assistant. Analyze scanner-based RSCP for SC, and you can obtain the signal distribution of each cell (scramble). If the signals of a cell are widely distributed, even in the neighbor cells and the cells next to its neighbor cells, the signals of the cell is present, the cell encounters a cross-cell coverage which might be due to over high site or improper down tilt of antenna. The cross-cell coverage cells interferes neighbor cells, so the capacity declines. You can solve the problem by increasing the down tilt of antenna or lowering the height of antenna. Avoid forming new weak coverage areas while solving cross-coverage problems. Pay special attention to the adjustment of engineering parameters which might cause coverage voids. Be conservative that cross-cell coverage is better than coverage voids if no other choices are available. _ No primary pilot cell Start Assistant. Analyze scanner-based SC for 1st Best ServiceCell, and you can obtain

Uplink Coverage Analysis


The corresponding quality standard is: _ Good if CPICH_RSCP _ 85 dBm _ Fair if 95 dBm _ CPICH_RSCP < 85 dBm Poor if CPICH_RSCP < 95 dBm Uplink coverage analysis is analyzing UE transmit power obtained in DT. The quality standards of UE transmit power must be combined with optimization standards. Assume the optimization indexes of UE transmit power as below: UE_Tx_Power _ 10 dBm >= 95% The test result of voice service by test handset. Assume the maximum transmit power of UE is 21 dBm. The defined corresponding quality standards are: _ Good if UE_Tx_Power _ 0 dBm _ Fair if 0 dBm < UE_Tx_Power _ 10 dBm _ Poor if UE_Tx_Power > 10 dBm
