Key Optimization Target and Result

Network Quality Improvement

Improve network KPI

Handover suc Rate increase, handover request times decrease

Improve throughput
Use two carrier with different priority for CS and PS

2 Improve the coverage

After new site on air, RSCP increase, but EcIo decrease especially in the dense area

3 Decrease customer complaints

Call center had a little complaint. The VIP subscriber complaints decreased.

Optimization Work Summary

3G to 2G handover:
CS inter-RAT handover successful ratio is about 98.5% PS inter-RAT handover successful ratio increased, around 95.2% Action to improve PS handover successful ratio: 1- Changed the 2G target threshold from 20 to 25 2- Troubleshooting for top N worst cell, rechecked and configured the inter-RAT neighbor and parameters Plan to improve PS handover successful ratio: 1- Continue to troubleshooting worst cell 2- Adjust the HO threshold to reduce to HO times, but not decrease performance

Optimization Work Summary

Complaint troubleshooting:
Quay 153 Cho Sat Pham Hung Thoi HB Signal is not so good although there is one site nearby, as it is too deep in the building

Solution: 1- check and adjust the site HPG_LCN_CHO_SAT direct to the building, but it is still not so good 2- adjust HPG_HBG_NGUYEN_THAI_HOC_1800, as 900 cover import area, so only 1800 can be adjusted Plan to finish: Feb28

Optimization Work Summary

Complaint troubleshooting:
145 Ph Cm Gia Vin NQ Fast connection speed is low, 3G signal is weak, camp on 2G most time

Solution: 1- lock 3G only, data throughput is higher, but 3G signal still low 2- two new 3G site nearby are not on air, will check again after the two sites on air

Optimization Work Summary

Complaint troubleshooting:
869 Trng Chinh K.An Weak indoor coverage

Solution: 1- increase the transmit power of site around

2- adjust the HPG_KAN_QUAN_TRU_A tilt from 9 to 6 Result: Signal improved, but still weak in deep inside, mainly because of the distance, the nearest site is 630m

Optimization Work Summary

Subscriber complaint:
Totally checked 10 customer complaint area, 8 of them is about the weak coverage, the reason is that the area far is from the site

Bad performance in two cell of HPG_HBG_THUONG_LY

After upgrade to double carrier, the performance is bad in second carrier, but no alarm, last week HQ analyzed the log and found the problem caused by the fault WBBP, replaced the board, the performance become normal

Pending issue
Weak coverage indoor in some area
HW will try to adjust the nearest site to improve, but may not improve so much

Coverage improve after new sites on air

After most of the new sites on air, HW will start the cluster optimization

Bad coverage indoor, Quay 153 Cho Sat Pham Hung Thoi HB
Adjust the nearest G1800 to the area, and check result after adjust

Drop complaint in Cty CPTM Phu My Hung Cum CN Vinh Niem

No alarm in the serving cell, will check the call drop record and trace the subscriber Number to find the solve the problem

PS inter-RAT performance improvement

Decrease the HO times, and optimization for old system

Optimization Content
1. Coverage optimization (plan) As many new sites on air, so need decrease the old sites coverage to avoid too much interference, which may cause bad EcIo, good RSCP Solution: after most of the new site on air, HW will start the cluster optimization with cluster driving test

2. Cell with high RTWP (plan) It may cause unbalance between uplink and downlink; Solution: The best solution is to find and clear the interference, but it is very difficult; If the interference can not solve in short time, the suggestion is decrease the cell downlink coverage accordingly, to avoid the situation good signal but bad quality 3. Neighbor optimization (troubleshooting) Bad the top worst cell to check neighbor Optimize the missing neighbor base on CHR logfile

4. Top worst cell optimization (daily) Base one KPI statistics to troubleshooting for top worst cell

5. Check user performance with CHR logfile (troubleshooting) Discover the top worst performance user in advance and solve the problem 6. VIP user performance guarantee (daily) Get the call failure or drop record from CHR, to find and solve problem if any in time

7. Alarm and transmission which affect service (daily) Base the performance to find and solve the problem in time,

8. Monitor both CN and SRAN performance (daily) Monitor both CN and SRAN performance, as some kind of failure can not be found in SRAN, such as security mode reject failure

Optimization Plan for next week

1. Start optimization for HDG As most site is ready in HDG, we will prepare the optimization for HDG, and discuss with VMS5 together to start the optimization: Confirm the parameter setting, DT plan and route, optimization schedule and target

2. Improve coverage in Quay 153 Cho Sat Pham Hung Thoi HB Adjust the nearest site HPG_HBG_NGUYEN_THAI_HOC_1800, and recheck the result
3. 3G to 2G handover performance improvement Currently the inter-RAT performance increase a little, but still not catch the target, choose the worst cell to test and analysis the failure cause

Support and help

Weak indoor coverage, need on air new site ASAP Many complains these days, and most of them is about weak coverage, especially indoor

Solution:
On air the new site or expansion site ASAP (lack of transmission currently) Many new site still not yet no air as transmission not ready or special antenna not ready Add new site for the area with high traffic but no site nearby Some area high traffic, but no site nearby, need add new site (repeater can be the temporary solution, but it may generate interference and difficult to do troubleshooting later)
