UMTS Bearers in Asset3g
In Asset3g there are UL and DL Bearers
A Bearer is defined by:

Its Bitrate
Eb/No Value
Soft and Softer handover gains
And other parameters
Configuration Bearers UMTS
Bearers Tab 1
Name Bearer and define UL or DL direction
The Air Interface bitrate is used when calculating
processing gain and Signal to Noise ratio
The User bitrate is used in calculating cell throughput

for different services and in throughput reports
Air interface and User interface values are typically set

to be the same
Bearers Tab 2
Control Overhead % may be defined here:

Vendors normally absorb this value on the recommended
Eb/No values and Activity factors. e.g. 58% for voice, with 8%
being the OH. In this case, set this value to 0
Set the Resource consumption in number of physical

channels
Noise Model and Eb/No Speed Delta
Define noise model: typically Gaussian
Define link Eb/No

Frame Error Rate comes from previous tab
You can also define Eb/No with diversity
Define Eb/No speed dependency

This is the offset in the Eb/No requirement at different speeds
Additional DL options
DL Eb/No target reduction

Define the reduction on the Eb/No target for different speeds
and different Ec/Io values
Max Tx Power in dBm

This is the max Tx power that may be allocated to this Bearer
If this is exceeded therell be a DL Eb/No range failure
Additional UL options
Power Control Headroom

Establishes a relationship between the different speeds and
Power control headroom requirements
Also sets the Average Power Rise that this causes
TXP Gain (Transmit Power)

This represents the gains obtained from soft and softer
handovers
Results in reduction on the Tx Power reduction on the UL
Additional UL options
PR Gain (Power Rise)

Represents the power variations on the UE for the Uplink
As Eb/No increases due to soft or softer handover there is less
power variations
PCH Gain (Power Control Headroom)

Represents the PC Headroom required at different speeds and
at different Eb/No values
As Eb/No increases due to soft or softer handover there is less

need for Power Control Headroom
Services in Asset3g
The service parameters that are specified in UMTS

characterise the profile of a connection to the network
Configuration Services
Select between CS or PS service type

For CS: select the activity factor. e.g. 58% for voice
For PS: the activity factor is calculated using the Packet
Switched tab settings
Defining Services
Assign a Carrier to support a given service
Assign UL and DL Bearers for the service
If PS service, define service characteristics
Section 6 Traffic Planning on a UMTS Network
6- Traffic Planning on a UMTS Network
Defining Terminal Types
Configuration Terminal Types
Terminal Type basic characteristics:
How much Traffic will the Terminal Type generate

How will the Traffic be spread geographically
Which Services are available to serve the traffic for that
Terminal Type
Traffic in Asset3g
Number of Terminals must refer to active mobiles or
mobiles that are expected to simultaneously demand

service for the network
subscribers service data demand per subscriber(Mbits) service

Active terminals service
data rate (Mbits/sec) service 3600
The number of terminals should refer not only to the initial

state of the network but should include the planned
growth
Traffic Raster

Section 7 The Static Analyser
7- The Static Analyser
Static Analysis
Allows quick determination of key parameters
Uses a deterministic algorithm: running the analysis

several times yields the same results
It provides per Service and per Carrier measurements
You need to have a pathloss prediction in memory
Static Analysis options 1
Arrays Static Analysis UMTS

Static Analysis options 2

Select Pilot Pollution threshold
Any Pilot signal that has an Ec/Io level higher than this
threshold, and its not part of the UEs active set, will be
considered a polluter
Power Control Std Deviation

Section 8 The Monte Carlo Simulator
8- The Monte Carlo Simulator
Monte Carlo Analysis

Its a more complete form of Static Analysis
More accurate than Static Analysis
Takes a large number of randomised snapshots of
network performance for different terminals over time
In these snapshots, the UEs are in statistically determined

positions and generated independently for each snapshot
Monte Carlo Static Simulation
MC Analysis: Initialisation
The number of terminals in an active session in a pixel

is determined using a Poisson distribution with a mean
given by the number of terminals in the traffic array
At the start of the snapshot the mobile and cell powers

are initialised to zero and these are then used to
initialise the noise on the uplink and downlink
Other parameters such as power control error are set

randomly on every terminal
MC Analysis: Testing procedure

The first terminal in the list is tested for failure conditions.
If it does not fail, then its Tx power, and the Tx power of
the cells to which it is connected, are modified
The next terminal in the list is then tested for failure

conditions and so on
When the entire list has been tested, the simulator
returns to the first terminal and repeats the process. This

continues until convergence is reached
MC Analysis: Reaching convergence
When convergence is reached, the results of the

snapshot are appended to the results of the overall
simulation
The simulation moves on to the next snapshot
When the simulation has completed all the specified

snapshots, you can view your results using the arrays
or view a summary of the data or reports
The Monte Carlo Simulator
Arrays Simulator Monte Carlo Wizard UMTS
Needs a traffic raster in memory to run
For Jersey, and 7 sites, it takes around 750 snapshots

to reach a 95% confidence interval of 2dB
Simulation Resolution
The simulation resolution determines the dimensions of
the output arrays and produces a grid on which the
terminals will be placed
When the simulation resolution is higher than the
resolution of the traffic raster and the coverage

predictions, then these would have to be converted
It is advised that all these resolutions are equal because
in the case of large areas with a high number of sites this

process may be time consuming
Number of covering cells

In general for most environments at least all the first order
neighbours must be considered, while the inclusion of
second order neighbours should be considered to ensure
the accuracy of the results
For high cell densities (urban areas) it would not sensible

to set this value low because a lot of interference coming
from many cells is being ignored
In rural areas setting this parameter very high would

result in a very slow simulator process
Power Control Standard Deviation

The standard deviation for power control error parameter
controls the distribution of the power transmitted by
successfully served terminals
A standard deviation value of 0 implies the Eb/No value

for each successfully served terminal is achieved
perfectly
In reality this is not the case as imperfect power control

produce a log normal distribution of achieved Eb/No
values at a cell.
Running the simulation 1

Simulation Resolution & Number of covering cells:
6-18 to account for effect of surrounding cells (1st or 2nd tiers)
Select Pilot Pollution threshold

Any Pilot signal that has an Ec/Io level higher than this threshold,
and its not part of the UEs active set, will be considered a polluter
Power Control Std Deviation

Intra-site/inter-site correlation coefficient
Select the terminals to simulate. If there are no

terminals with a traffic raster this screen will be blank
You could split the simulation into several regions
You could distribute the processing load amongst

several machines
Select arrays to output
You could save partial results every X minutes
Define number of iterations per snapshot, 10 is a good

number
Define Max power change % to consider that the

simulation snapshot has reached convergence
Decide whether to use a passive scan terminal:

The passive scan terminal is a virtual terminal that is positioned
in all the pixels of the simulation area after the snapshot has
converged
Predicts the coverage for a particular service and produce a

coloured array
This slows the overall simulation process

Does not affect the reports/results
If desired, run a scan every 10 snapshots
Review the summary of parameters
Simulation Control Panel
Decide the number of snapshots to run

If using this option, run at least 1000 snapshots
Decide if running to a 95% confidence interval
Click Run and wait
At the end Save the results
Pausing and restarting the simulation
You can restart or pause a simulation using the Monte

Carlo Simulation Control Panel dialog box. If you want
to re-run the simulation

set up new parameters
With the same parameters: click the Clear Results button and
click Run again

Key Per Server Arrays: Best Server
This array displays the cell that can offer a coverage

probability above the specified threshold in the settings.
The coverage threshold is specified by the user and

could correspond to the minimum GoS required
Coverage Probability
This array shows the coverage probability for every

pixel in the simulation area.
Without using the passive scan terminal, it shows us

the percentage of users that attempted access to the
network and were actually successful
Coverage Probability for the Nth Best Server

This array displays the individual coverage probabilities
for the attempts that have been made on all the cells
starting from the one that offers the best coverage but
continuing to the Nth best server
What we expect to see is that the coverage probability of
the first server is a lot higher than the ones of the second
and so on
We would like to have a dominant best server in every

area for optimum distribution of the resources
Downlink achieved Eb/No

The value on the pixel to be displayed here is the mean
Eb/No across all the users on that pixel that have made
successful access attempts
Ideally, the Eb/No for a connected user the value would
be exactly the one entered in the bitrates. However this is

going to vary if we introduce power control error
The variation on the mean achieved Eb/No is directly
related to the standard deviation value of that error which

we input in the simulator wizard
Soft Handover Arrays 1
Mean number of soft/softer handover cells:

Shows for every pixel the mean number of cells apart from the
primary one that are engaged in soft/softer handover
Mean size of active set

Shows the mean number of cells that a terminal would be
connected to on each pixel including the primary connection

cell
Soft Handover Arrays 2
Most probable handover type

Displays the type of handover that will take place provided that
there is a handover happening in that pixel.
Probability of soft/softer handover

Shows the percentage of terminals, out of the total successful
primary connections, that were able to connect to more than
one other cells of the network
Probability of Low Ec/Io
The level of the pilot Ec/Io is the primary constraint that

has to be met on a carrier before a connection to the
network can be established
There is a combination of two primary reasons that

result in such a failure: the path loss and the
experienced noise level
Key Per Carrier Arrays: Best Server by Pilot
This array provides the means to quickly optimise the

coverage of a network by displaying the areas of pilot
coverage
Pilot Ec/Io
This array displays the level of the primary connection

constraint to the network
Selecting an appropriate pallet would result in quickly

identifying areas of coverage for multiple types of
terminals with different required Ec/Io
When it is low then it is necessary to re-optimise pilot

coverage
Mean Number of Pilot Polluters
This array will show us for every pixel in the simulation

the total number of cells that do not belong in the active
set and at the same time have a Ec/Io above the
threshold specified in the simulator wizard window
It is one very important array as we can easily identify

the existence of downlink interference in areas where
other cells are supposed to be offering service to a user
as members of the active set
Pilot Coverage
The Pilot Coverage array displays the pilot strength in

dBm for the selected carrier and is useful when
determining pilot interference
This array shows the same information as the Pilot

Strength array, but the powers can be grouped into
categories of pilot strength
The Pixel Analyser 1

Allows the analysis of the simulation results on a selected
pixel
There are two pixel-analyser modes:

Hot Tracking (Red): a dynamic analyser. Changes as you
move the mouse over the 2D view
Pixel Select (Black): click on a pixel to display the

available info

Section 14 The Scrambling Code Planner
14- The Scrambling Code Planner
The Scrambling Code Planner
The UMTS Scrambling Code Planner is used to assign

primary scrambling codes to individual cells.
Scrambling codes do not affect the simulation but the

tool is useful for making code re-use efficient in the
network.
Uses information from Neighbours. So, before running

this planner ensure you have Neighbours information in
the database
The Scrambling Code Schemas
Configuration UMTS Scrambling Code Schemas
The scrambling code schema allows you to create a

range of code groups and codes within a code group to
plan in the Scrambling Code Planner
There are 64 code groups to use each consisting of

eight primary scrambling codes. Each group of codes
starts at 0 and ends at 7
