• Recommended solutions for Traffic Balancing

I. In case of GSM900 and DCS1800 co-location, the GSM900 has strong signal
strength but we can use the idle parameter setting and handover to control the
traffic and achieve the balanced traffic between GSM900 and DCS1800
II. In case of 2G and 3G co-location, we can use the idle parameter setting and
handover to control the traffic and achieve the balanced traffic between 2G
and 3G

a. Set proper cell selection and reselection parameters

b. Utilize proper cell layer settings and other handover parameters
c. Control idle mode MS behavior, optimize handover settings to achieve proper
traffic load sharing
d. other

• Strategy for 2G/3G Interoperability

For the areas covered by both the GSM network and the UMTS
network,2G/3G interoperability can be performed to achieve traffic balance
between the GSM and UMTS.
I.Only suggest to active the cell reselection from 2G to 3G.
II.Both cell reselection and handover are suggested from 3G to 2G.

①Cell reselection from 3G to 2G only when the UE leave 3G coverage.

②UE will trigger cell reselection from 2G to 3G once it go back to 3G
coverage.

① 2G Coverage
