Possible Reason Interference Bad Coverage: Bad Signal Strength: Overshooting Wrong DRT Value for Neighbours like -100 etc should be -85 Co-BCCH Hardware Problem Hardware Problem: Loose or Faulty Cables, Faulty Connections Interference: on BCCH or hopping, Wrong HSN, MAIO, MS etc Bad Coverage: Bad Signal Strength VSWR Swap: Sector or Cable Wrong PER: Should be 4 Hours Less SDCCH TS in Sector Wrong LAC Boundary or Overlapping Coverage at LAC Boundary Traffic : SMS or Calls: Wrong no of SDCCH Alarms on SDCCH or TRX Hardware Problem Dynamic SDCCH Not working Blocking due to More than 18 Logical Channels in one Trx (with TCHD and SDCCH) Hardware Problem Lesser Trx's Wrong Half rate settings Locked TS or Trx's Outage of nearby site: high traffic due to that Non-BCCH Trx Lock for a time period when Site on Battery Co-BCCH BSIC in neghbours Co-BCCH Overlapping coverage in neighbours Congestion on Target cells: BLT is 70 normally: should be changed to 90 when poor HOSR due to congestion Wrong Definitions: More Neighbours Large LAC with high Traffic PGCH: AGCH ratio wrong, Ideally 6:3 or 7:2 if needed and if does not impacts CSSR Switch Problem Coverage holes area; User gets out of coverage many a times so paging failures till user does not gets Detached i.e. 4 Hours( PER time)Solution Decrease PER Timer to 2 or 1 Hours & Monitor Wrong MFR Parameter(Default is 4) Paging Timer in MSC 4.5 Second Overshooting Interference
