DATA COLLECTION

Lets begin!

Data of network plan Network basic information collection The base of network plan and optimization The engineering survey data of new sites Confirm the network plan information. The Engineering data of the current network Understand the current network . The configuration NMS data. Understand the current network configuration. Collection of various performance reports of the currently deployed network. Subscribers complain The supplement information showing the network quality.

RF OPTIMIZATION
Quality

Optimization Cost Resources

OPTIMIZATION OBJECTIVES

Finding and correcting any existing problems after site implementation and integration. Meeting the network quality criteria agreed in the contract. Optimization will be continuous and iterative process of improving overall network quality. Optimization can not reduce the performance of the rest of the network. Area of interest is divided in smaller areas called clusters to make optimization and follow up processes easier to handle.

PROPOSED METHODOLOGY
Problem Analysis Conduct Drive testing

Gather

statistics Subject to investigage (Faulty TRX, Coverage overlaps, drop calls, capacity & interference issues)

Simulate real-time scenario on TEMS (after DT) Export into MAPInfo to check cell overshoot coverage, etc Propose solution

EXPECTED OUTCOMES

Good signal coverage at macro and micro sites Rx Quality level should be good No interference issue
