Probable Reasons of Bad Handover

Performance
---Neighboring Cell Relation
Action:Add neighbor cell relation.
---Missed measurement frequencies in BA-list
Action:Check measurement frequencies list.
---Permitted Networ Color Code !roblem
Action:Check NCC Permitted
---H" faults.
Action: Check BTS error log.
---Blocing on #arget Cell
Action:Remoe Blocking on Tager Cell
---Congestion
A high congestion might lead to dragged calls !handoer "erformed at a not intended
location# and a lot of unsuccessful handoers.
Action: Check TC$ congestion.
---#imer $%!ire After M& is 'ost
The %S neer ans&ers the base station.
Action: Check coerage. Check interference.
---'in Connection or H" (ailure
Action: Check BTS error log. Perform site isit. Perform link "erformance
measurements.
---Bad Antenna )nstallation
Action: Perform site sure' and check antenna installation. Check antenna cabling.
---Man* Neighbors +efined
%an' defined measurement frequencies defined !()*# &ill decrease the accurac' of
the mobile measurements to locate the best si+ serers. %an' measurement
frequencies mean fe& sam"les "er frequenc' and "roblem for mobiles to decode the
BS,C.
Action: Check number of definitions.
---+ela*ed Handover +ecision
A dela'ed handoer decision can be due to congestion in the target cell.
Action: Check handoer "arameters.
---"rong 'ocating Parameter &etting
Action: Check locating "arameters.
---Bad Radio Coverage
Action: Check coerage "lots.
---High )nterference, Co-Channel or Ad-acent
The "otential handoer candidate is disturbed b' interference. -utgoing handoer
due to bad u"link qualit' ma' indicate interference from co-channel another %S. -n
the border. the qualit' ma' be rather bad and the signal strength lo&. Bad do&nlink
qualit' ma' indicate interference from another co-channel base station.
Action: Check interference. Check if man' handoers are "erformed due to do&nlink
or u"link bad qualit'.
---Receiver Antenna Problem or RB& H" !roblems .in candidate cell/
Action: Check antenna installation. Check RBS $/ and 0rror log of the target cell
---Poor )nter-M&C0B&C Handover Performance
1or outer or e+ternal cell. &rong definitions in either %SC or BSC ma' be reason for
the "roblem.
Action: Check inter-%SC2BSC handoer "erformance.
---)ncorrect +own #ilt
Action: Perform site sure' and check antenna installation.
&olution: Correct antenna tilting.
