As shown in the figure below, the main topic of this course is adjustment of system
parameters for the Siemens Base Station System (SBS) as part of the radio network
planning process.
Before going into the details of the system features and control parameters, this
introduction chapter summarizes some basics on radio network planning:
In the first and second section of this chapter the steps within the radio network
planning process are explained. In sections 3 - 5 simple models concerning radio
propagation, frequency re-use and teletraffic are presented.
As each model they are only an approximation of reality. Nevertheless
they help to understand the meaning of parameters and the way of working the
algorithms,
The mobile radio network is the connecting element between the mobile telephone
users and the fixed network.
In this network the base transceiver station equipment (BTSE) is the direct
interface to the subscriber. It has to make radio communication channels available to
the users and to care for a satisfactory signal quality within a certain area around the
base station. This area may be split into different sectors (cells) which belong to one
BTSE.
Planning a mobile radio network is a complex task, because radio propagation along
the earth surface is submitted to many influences due to the local environment.
Furthermore the performance requirements to a radio network cover a wide field of
applications which depend on the operators potentialities and goals. To respond to all
these subjects, it is necessary to observe a certain sequence of tasks.
The first step is to get knowledge about the customers/operators objectives and
resources (basic planning data). On this basis it is possible to estimate the size of the
project and to establish a coarse nominal cell plan.
Then it is necessary to install a digital terrain data base into a planning tool which
contains topo-graphical and morphological information about the planning region.
This digital map permits to make more accurate predictions about the radio signal
propagation as compared to the first rough estimation, and to create a more realistic
cell structure, including the recommendable geographical positions of the base
stations equipment(coarse coverage prediction).
The network elements defined up to this moment have been found on a more or less
theoretical basis. Now it has to be checked if the envisaged radio site locations may
really be kept. A site survey campaign in accordance with the customer, who is
responsible for the site acquisition, must clarify all problems concerning the
infrastructure and technical as well as financial issues of the BTSE implementation.
Inside a tolerable search area the optimum site meeting all these issues has to be
selected.
This site selection should also take into account particular properties of the area,
e.g. big obstacles which are not recognizable in the digital maps.
Field measurements, to be carried out in typical and in complex areas must give
detailed informations about the radio characteristics of the planning region. The
measurement results will then help to align the radio prediction tool for the actual
type of land usage (tool tuning).
Now, fixed site positions and an area-adapted tool being available, it is possible to
start the detailed radio planning. The final network design has to care for both
sufficient coverage and proper radio frequency assignment in respecting the traffic
load and the interference requirements.
The last planning step is the generation of a set of control parameters, necessary to
maintain a communication while a subscriber is moving around. These parameters
have to comply with the existing cell structure and the needs to handle the traffic load
expected in each cell.
by the maximum radio range of the involved transceiver stations and mobile
terminals; the range is limited by the available transmit power and the noise figure
of the receivers. This type is called a noise limited cell; it is typical for rural regions.
b)
The result of this first planning step is a rough estimate of the network structure,
called a nominal cell plan, which gives knowledge about the number of radio stations,
their required technical equipment and their approximate geographical positions.
Thus allowing to assess the monetary volume of the project.
The screening by hills which may affect the coverage of a service area must be made
evident by consideration of the terrain profile (height contour lines).
The procurement of digital maps with these informations may be rather expensive.
The prediction accuracy is directly related to the size of area elements (resolution)
and to the reliability of these information (obsolescence of maps!)
Network Configuration
The results of the coarse prediction steps will allow to define the radio network
configuration and the layout of individual base stations.
A first frequency allocation plan may also be derived from these predictions. The
result might already be a well functioning network. But it is still based on
assumptions. The actual impact of the natural environment must be considered in the
following steps. Nevertheless, the coarse planning results will help to better assess
the special details brought in by the real situation.
In designing the radio network one has to keep in mind the requirements emerging
from an increasing subscriber number. A multiple phase implementation plan has to
govern the network configuration concepts.
In the initial phase a relatively low number of users has to be carried. On the other
hand complete coverage of the service area has to be provided from the beginning.
Existing sites of the first implementation phase must be useable in later phases.
Increasing subscriber numbers (synonymous with increasing interference tendency!)
should be responded by completion of the existing TRX-equipment and by addition of
new sites. This means reconfiguration of the existing cell patterns and frequency
reassignment. The planner should anticipate the future subscriber repartitions and
concentrations from the beginning, in creating cell structures capable to respond to
future needs. Increasing interference problems arising with higher site density may
be overcome by downtilting of directional antennas initially mounted for maximum
signal range, as now the radio cell areas will be smaller.
Site Selection
The site positions found in the coarse planning process on a theoretical basis, must
now be verified in a joint campaign, called site survey, between the customer and the
radio network planner. All site candidates within a tolerable search area around the
theoretical site positions must be checked.
This check includes the availability of electric power and of data transmission lines.
The most important topic is the possibility to install the antennas in a suitable height
above the roofs or above ground.
Environmental influences (screening obstacles, reflectors) have also to be regarded.
The best fitting site should be selected.
Another important task of this campaign is to declare a certain number of the radio
sites be suitable to serve as survey sites. This means that radio field measurements
shall be done with these stations as transmitters. The resulting measurements will be
used for the alignment of radio propagation models.
The environment of the survey sites should be typical for a considerable number of
other radio sites.
Field Measurements
Digital terrain data bases (DTDB) as derived from topographical maps or satellite
pictures do not contain all details and particularities of the existing environment.
Especially in fast developing urban areas maps cannot keep pace with reality and
thus reflect an obsolete status. Keeping maps on this quality level would be very
expensive.
The characteristics of built up zones and vegetation areas with respect to radio
propagation differ in a wide range if we regard different countries. Even climatic
conditions may influence the signal level. Knowledge about this specific behavior
must be acquired by measurements.
The survey measurements have to be carried out in typical areas. Evaluation of
these measurements will result in models that can be applied in comparable areas as
well.
Special measurements must be carried out in very complex topographical regions
where standardized propagation models will fail. The resulting models are valid
exclusively for this measurement zone.
Tool Tuning
The measurement results have to be compared with the predictions of proven
standard models. The standard parameters will be slightly modified to achieve
minimum discrepancies with the measurements, i.e. to keep the mean error and rmserror as low as possible. As the signal level is subject to statistical variations which
cannot be predicted, the rms-error will never be zero.
The reliability of the created models increases with the number of measurement runs
that can be exploited.
The new specific model may also be applied in other base stations located in similar
environment.
Network Design
The area-specific models are the basis for the final planning steps. The detailed
network design has to care for

There are three main components of radio propagation which are discussed in the
next section:
Path Loss
Standard path loss models are of the form:
Lm[dB]= A + B log d [km]
where Lm is the mean propagation path loss between the base station (BS) and the
mobile station (MS) at a distance d.
A:
B:
Examples are:
1. Free space loss:
L0 = 32.4 + 20 log f [MHz] + 20 log d [km]
or more important propagation in real environment - the famous Hata model:
2. Hata model
The Hata model describes the mean propagation effects for large cells and
distances d > 1 Km. For urban environment one has:
A = 69.55 + 26.16 log f - 13.82 log Hb - a(Hm)
B = 44.9 - 6.55 log Hb
Frequency:
f [Mhz]
150...1000 -Mhz
BS antenna height:
Hb [m]
30...200 m
MS antenna height:
Hm [m]
Example:
Hm = 1.5 m
Hb = 50 m
A = 123.3
B = 33.8
f=900 Mhz
BS height 50 m
MS height 1.5 m

For other environments (suburban, rural-quasi-open) the path loss per decade
remains the same, but the unit loss is reduced by a certain amount. The free space
loss and the Hata model are illustrated in the figure above.
Models of this type are adequate for estimating the received level for large cells.
However for a real network planning, refinements of the model and adaptations of
parameters to morphological and topographical data and to measurement values are
necessary (refer to section 1).
The smaller the cells, the more important are the details of e.g. the building structure
within the cell.

The length scale for variation of the long term fading is in the range 5 ... 100 m, i.e.
the typical size of shadowing obstacles.
Example:
x = 3 dB
x = 0 dB
x = -3 dB
x = -6 dB
x = -10 dB
x = -20 dB
Prob = 86,5 %
Prob = 63,0 %
Prob = 39,5 %
Prob = 22,0 %
Prob = 9,5 %
Prob = 1,0 %
Changing the transmission frequency and therefore the wave length, changes the
position of Raleigh peaks and dips. This means that at a given position, the received
level affected by Raleigh fading in general differs for different transmission
frequencies. The higher the frequency difference the lower is the correlation for the
receive signal for the different frequencies. The coherence bandwidth B coh is defined
as the frequency difference at which this correlation has decreased to 0.5. The
coherence bandwidth depends upon the spread of arrival times of the different multi
path components of the received signal. This spread is called delay spread T:
1
2T
i.e. the higher the delay spread the lower is the coherence bandwidth.
The delay spread depends upon the propagation environment. Typical values are:
0.1 ... 1 s for urban area (corresponding to path length between difference of
30 ... 300 m).
Keeping in mind that a Raleigh fading dip of more than 10 dB occurs with a
probability of 10 %, measures should be provided to combat Raleigh fading:

The ratio x:1 denotes the number of carriers which are combined. In the case of
hybrid combiners the signals are fed to 1 transmitter antenna. In the case of
duplexers the signals are fed to 2 antennas (on air combining) which are used for
transmission as well as for reception.
Using these antennas for reception, a two branch (maximum ratio) antenna diversity
combining can be realized. This means that - using Duplexers - two antennas per cell
are needed, whereas when using Hybrid Combiners and applying Antenna Diversity
two receive plus one transmit antenna is needed.
Downlink Antenna Cable Loss:
3 dB (example)
Output MS:
For the MS there is no need combining different carriers; and the cable loss and
antenna gain reduce to zero. The EIRP depends upon the power class of the MS
specified in GSM Rec 05.05:
Power Class (GSM 05.05)
--
1 Watt = 30 dBm
8 Watt = 39 dBm
0.25W = 24 dBm
5 Watt = 37 dBm
4 Watt = 36 dBm
2 Watt = 33 dBm
Input BTS:
The required input power level RIPL at the BTS antenna is given by
RIPLBTS =
Receiver Sensitivity Level - Antenna Diversity Gain + Uplink Cable Loss
- Antenna Gain
Receiver Sensitivity Level < - 104 dBm
The receiver sensitivity level is defined in GSM Rec. 05.05 for scenarios where short
term Raleigh fading is (at least) partly averaged either by motion or by frequency
hopping. The receiver sensitivity level has been measured to be better than required
by GSM Rec. 05.05.
Antenna Diversity Gain:
The gain which can be achieved by antenna diversity strongly depends upon the
propagation environment, the velocity of the mobile and on whether frequency
hopping is applied or not.
For a typical urban environment, a mobile speed of 3 km/h and frequency hopping
applied the antenna diversity gain is about 4 dB.
Uplink Cable Loss
3 dB
0 dB
The (uplink) cable loss from the antenna to the receiver input can be compensated
using a tower mounted amplifier called RXAMOD.
It should be noted that this preamplifier cannot be used together with on air
combining (Duplexers).
Antenna Gain (example):
Input MS:
For the MS there is neither antenna gain nor antenna diversity gain. Cable losses
can be neglected. Therefore the required input power level at the MS antenna is
given by the MS receiver limit sensitivity as specified by GSM 05.05:

Example 2:
Designing a radio cell for mainly MS of Power Class 4 (instead of power class 3), the
following values for link budget are obtained:
Lu[dB] = 154 dB
Ld [dB] = 156 dB
To obtain a symmetric link budget, the power amplifier output power of the BTS has
to be reduced by 2 dB. This is done using the O&M parameter BS_TXPWR_RED:

Reducing the BTS output power has the advantage that less downlink interference is
caused by this cell.
If there are also some mobiles of Power Class 2 and 3 within the cell designed for
mobiles of Power Class 4, their maximum transmit power has to be limited for a link
budget balance. This is the reason behind the following parameters:

By introducing the long term fading margin LTFM (x%) for a required coverage
probability of x%, the effect of shadowing is taken into account.
For homogeneous hexagonal networks frequencies can be allocated to cells in a
symmetric way. Defining the cluster size K as group of cells in which each frequency
is used exactly once, the following relations between Cluster Size, Cell Radius and
Re-use Distance are obtained.

Cluster Size:
Inserting the formula for the cluster size into the formula for the minimum CIR one
obtains:
0.5 * B log 3 K > CIRmin + LTFM (x%) + 10 log NI
which gives a lower bound for the cluster size which can be used.
For a given cluster size K and total number of frequencies N tot, the number of
frequencies per cell Ncell is given by:
Ncell = Ntot/K
i.e. the capacity of a cell can be increased by reducing the cluster size.
A reduction of cluster size can be achieved by
Examples for sectored network structure are shown in the figures below. Methods for
interference reduction are discussed in chapter 6.
Obviously a real network does not have such a regular hexagonal structure and
frequency allocation is performed by planning tools using complex algorithms for
optimizing the CIR in each cell.
The objective is to achieve a high mean value of frequencies per cell <N cell>. The
ratio
<K> = Ntot/Ncell
can viewed as the mean cluster size in such an inhomogeneous environment.
The capacity of the radio network depends upon the available number N of radio
channels per area F (e.g. F = 1 km2).

Traffic Models
A traffic model reflects the behavior of the subscribers, as their mobility, the mean call
rate or call duration. It is needed e.g. for calculating the required total number of
channels within a cell and how to split them between traffic and control channels.
These traffic model information is always a mixture between field observations in
similar networks and arbitrary assumptions.
Traffic data are variable in time, therefore statistical characterization is used.
The goal of planning is to manage traffic even in busy hour.
In mobile networks we have to evaluate two main factors:
user mobility
communications
User mobility:
The user moves with a velocity v.
For example the handover and location update rates depend on this velocity.
Communications:
The number of subscriber in a cell, the traffic per subscriber has to be considered.
Furthermore, one needs information the mean call duration, the mean call cell rate
(or busy hour call attempt BHCA). separately for mobile originating calls (MOC) and
mobile terminating calls (MTC).
