General
The aimof this training is togive toparticipants a a detailed detailed overview overviewof the of the
relevant relevant RAN RAN counters counters and KPIs and KPIs to to evaluate evaluate the performance of the the performance of the main main
RAN RAN procedures procedures. .
The course course is is theoretical theoretical. . It It s s not not about about optimisation optimisation cases cases or or trouble trouble - -
shooting shooting issues issues. .
Neverthless Neverthless, some case , some case studies studies have have been been introduced introduced in the material in the material to to
support support theoretical theoretical presentation presentation. .
Participants Participants are are invited invited to to use use the the evaluation evaluation form formin in order order to to
suggest suggest any any topic topic (e.g. (e.g. specific specific procedure/ procedure/functionality functionality + + counters counters) )
to to be be added added in the material in the material for for future future sessions sessions. .
Any Any proposal proposal will will be be more more than than welcome welcome

What is a Key Performance Indicator
Key Key performance performance indicator indicator (KPI) is a function of
counters. In its simplest form, KPI is an individual
counter.
The idea behind the KPI concept is that the
information of one counter value is rarely enough. On
the other hand, the operator needs to get information
on network performance in a compact format, in order
to minimise humananalysis effort.
With carefully definedKPIs, the operator can easily see
the overall status of network performance, e.g. how
RRC or RAB setups succeed, is the RAB drop ratio on an
acceptable level, are there severe problems in
handovers, and many other criticities.

The course structure has the purpose to:
Describe the main counters:
their triggering point
their usability
Suggest the main KPIs for performance analysis
Define easy and practical rules for quick
detection of problems in the network

Factors Affecting Network Performance
Many factors and network elements can affect the network performance:
Quality of network equipment, both hardware and software BTS, RNC, PS Core, CS Core and
transmission equipment
Performance of UE and field measurement tools inter-operability, sensitivities of measurement
parameters, level of accuracy
Quality of network planning and optimisation coverage, interference, parameter tuning, capacity
dimensioning
Quality of network implementation- site and network equipment installation, integration and
commissioning
Quality of network operation and maintenance
Multi-vendor environment Application servers, IP Backbone
Measurement method test setup, service dependent, cluster or system level, area type
(dense urban, urban, suburban, rural).
