Correlation DL SE to QPSK Ratio show that optimum QPSK Ratio to get DL 40% QPSK Ratio have correlation with DL CQI index 9. Lower QPSK Ratio
SE => 1 should less than 40%. will increase DL CQI

Pain Point: Difficulty for engineer to decide best tilt requirement during physical optimization

Dragging Coverage Issue
Inter-Frequency Distance Based Handover

Distance-based inter-frequency handover applies in multi-band hybrid networks

where cells on a certain band cover relatively large areas and overshoot coverage
occurs while neighbor relationships are missing.

band F1 is used to cover the urban area and band F2 is used to cover the
suburban area. If there are few obstacles in the overlapping area between the
urban area and the suburban area, the RF signals from an F1 cell may be able to
travel a long distance (typically three times the distance between sites), causing
overshoot coverage to an F2 cell. The triangle area in the UE moving direction
indicates overshoot coverage.

When distance-based inter-frequency handover is enabled, the UE can be handed

over to Cell B or Cell C in time to avoid service drops. The precision in the
estimated distance between the UE and eNodeB is about 100 to 150 meters.

This method can be applied in order to get coverage of L2100 in certain distance when drive test held from L1800
coverage.

Page 31
Inter-Frequency Distance Based Handover
Triggering and Stopping of Inter-Frequency Measurement
Distance-based inter-frequency handovers are triggered by the eNodeB based on the distance between the eNodeB and
the UE.

The eNodeB keeps monitoring the distance to all UEs. Upon detecting that the measured distance to a UE exceeds the
threshold specified by the DistBasedHO.DistBasedHOThd parameter for 10 seconds (which is a fixed value), the eNodeB
delivers the measurement configuration for event A4 to the UE.

While the measurement for a distance-based inter-frequency handover is being taken, if the eNodeB detects that the TA
value reported by the UE is less than or equal to the DistBasedHO.DistBasedHOThd value for 10 seconds, the measurement
is immediately stopped.

Inter-Frequency Measurement
Before delivering the measurement configuration related to event A4, the eNodeB checks whether a measurement gap has
been activated. If the measurement gap has been activated and includes other measurement gaps, the eNodeB does not
reconfigure the measurement gap. Otherwise, the eNodeB activates the measurement gap.

Parameters in the measurement configuration for distance-based inter-frequency measurement are the same as those for
coverage-based inter-frequency measurement.

• Extreme CIO was observed before MRO Implementation, this finding indicate some works have been done to mitigate Polluter issue
without touching physical optimization.
• By reducing number of Extreme CIO, in certain condition where overshoot happen this will bring more Ping-Pong handover. So Physical
optimization is highly recommended to be fixed.

PCI Conflict Insight
(Huawei & Nokia)
HUAWEI PCI Self Optimizer SON Feature Description
•PCI self-optimization is implemented on the U2000, and users need to create a PCI
self-optimization task on the U2000 before performing PCI self-optimization. After
the task starts, the U2000 performs PCI self-optimization analysis for eNodeBs based
on the reported PCI conflict information. Within a PCI self-optimization period: If the
U2000 reassigns a new PCI to the conflicting cell, the U2000 will output the PCI self-
optimization suggestions.

•If the U2000 does not reassign a new PCI to the conflicting cell, this cell will continue
using the old PCI, and the U2000 will not output the PCI self-optimization
suggestions.
The reassigned PCI takes effect to resolve the PCI conflict only after it is delivered to
the eNodeB. After the U2000 delivers the reassigned PCI, the cell will automatically
reset for the PCI to take effect. To prevent service drops, the eNodeB proactively
hands over online UEs to other cells by reducing the cell pilot power before the PCI
change.
PCI self-optimization applies even when some eNodeB engineering parameters are
not configured and the bandwidth is compressed.

Pain Point: Manual check of PCI problem really difficult to be manage, SON PCI can help to
self optimize PCI Conflict issue.

 Multi Band Optimum Carrier Selection
MBOCS Procedure What is MBOCS ?
Multi-band Optimal Carrier Selection (MBOCS) enables eNodeBs to
quickly select carriers that will provide a better user experience for UEs
requiring large volumes of data transmission on mobile broadband
(MBB) networks, which are characterized by high-traffic bursts and
rapidly changing loads.

What benefit of MBOCS ?

• Improved system resource efficiency and user experience
• Improved spectral efficiency for UEs engaged in data transmission in
inter-frequency small-overlap scenarios, where the coverage for
different frequencies is provided by either of the following:
• Different eNodeBs
• A single eNodeB with the antenna azimuths for these
frequencies varying by more than 45°

Pain Point: Hard to steering UE to get better carrier which provide better Spectral Efficiency

 Air Interface Acceleration Guarantee
This feature reduces service setup delays for acceleration guarantee UEs that
access a specific DNS server or IP address, and increases the download rates of
network services. The service setup delay is the delay between TCP SYN and the
first downlink service packet. When DRX is enabled, this can be reduced by up to
10%(delay performance). This function offers notable gains when air interface
resources are limited and high throughput is required to maintain service quality.
Service rates of acceleration guarantee UEs can be improved by up to 20% in such
scenarios.

Enable air interface acceleration guarantee for network services to ensure

smooth performance for UEs performing specific services, such as Pokémon GO.

LNOFD-150303 Automatic Multi-carrier Optimization by Virtual Grid (Trial)
1. Automatic CA Optimization by Virtual Grid This feature
enables the eNodeB to use virtual grid models to predict the reference signal received power (RSRP) values of candidate PCells and
SCells during PCC anchoring or SCell configuration for carrier aggregation (CA) UEs. The eNodeB no longer uses the UE-measured
RSRP values of the inter-frequency neighboring cells. This feature can improve User DownlinkThroughput.

2. Automatic Inter-Frequency Handover Optimization by Virtual Grid

This feature enables the eNodeB to use virtual grids to predict the RSRP values of inter-frequency neighboring cells during
coverage- and service-based inter-frequency handovers. This feature can improve User DownlinkThroughput.

3. Automatic MLB Optimization by Virtual Grid This feature

enables the eNodeB to use virtual grids to predict the RSRP values of inter-frequency neighboring cells when transferring UEs for
mobility load balancing (MLB). The eNodeB no longer uses the UE-measured RSRP values of the inter-frequency neighboring cells.
This feature can improve User DownlinkThroughput.

LEOFD-150302 Joint Transmission with TM9

This feature enables two cells to perform downlink joint transmission (JT) using TM9 for UEs in the overlapping coverage area
of the two cells. This improves the downlink MCS index and the performance of cell edge users (CEUs).

MRFD-150221 UMTS and LTE Zero Bufferzone (LTE FDD)
This feature eliminates the need for a buffer zone after UMTS-to-LTE spectrum refarming, and allows for the deployment of UMTS and LTE
networks on the same frequency in adjacent areas.
Inter-RAT interference avoidance between UMTS and LTE requires LTE UEs to start inter-RAT measurements. The gap-assisted
measurement results in a decrease in the uplink and downlink peak rates of a single LTE UE. LTE UEs with strong interference in
neighboring UMTS cells cannot use the UMTS preferential spectrum. As a result, the uplink peak rate of a single LTE UE decreases.

LAOFD-001001 LTE-A Introduction

SCell Activation Prohibition Upon Heavy Cell Load
When cells are heavily loaded, SCell activation can be prohibited to ensure user experience. This prohibition function helps increase the
average downlink perceived data rates of non-CA UEs in the cell, especially those at the cell edge, but it decreases the average downlink
perceived data rates of CA UEs that treat the cell as their SCell.

LBFD-060103 Enhanced DL Frequency Selective Scheduling
Downlink Smart Frequency Selective Scheduling
Downlink smart frequency selective scheduling has the following impacts:
•User Downlink Average Throughput increases.
•The CPU usage increases.
•The number of aperiodic CQI reporting times increases, which may cause Cell Uplink Average Throughput and average uplink user-
perceived throughput to decrease.
•The number of UEs concurrently scheduled increases, which may cause the average number of PDCCH symbols to increase.

LOFD-081203 Video Service Rate Adaption

Video Resource Control in Congestion Scenarios
This function lowers the scheduling priorities of UEs performing video services and consuming a large volume of air interface resources
when air interface resources are insufficient. This lowers the rate of such UEs and improves the service experience of other UEs in the
cell.

Page 108
 Impacts of eRAN15.0 New Features on eRAN13.1 Networks

LOFD-070208 Coordinated Scheduling based Power Control

Downlink MCS correction has been optimized for intra-eNodeB CSPC, so that the downlink MCS selection for UEs better matches the
channel interference status, increasing the downlink spectral efficiency and throughput of the UEs. Intra-eNodeB CSPC is recommended
when the average downlink PRB usage on the entire network is greater than 30%, the movement speeds of UEs on the live network are
lower than 10 km/h, the number of sectors configured on a single eNodeB is not less than three, and there are hotspot cells.

LOFD-070205 Adaptive SFN/SDMA

Fast UE scheduling attribute decision for adaptive SFN has been added to resolve subframe-level load imbalance. In addition, TM9 can be
used in adaptive SFN cells each served by a maximum of six RRUs when the fast decision function is used.
If the cell load is greater than 60% in an adaptive SFN cell served by more than two RRUs and the penetration rate of TM9 UEs is greater
than 60%, the value of User Downlink Average Throughput increases by up to 20%.
If the TM9Switch option of the CellAlgoSwitch.EnhMIMOSwitch parameter is already selected for an adaptive SFN cell served by two RRUs,
enabling the function will increase the User Downlink Average Throughput by 1% to 15% for this cell.

Page 109
 Impacts of eRAN15.0 New Features on eRAN13.1 Networks
Adaptive Adjustment of Time Sequence for Downlink Scheduling
This function adaptively adjusts the time sequence for downlink scheduling to improve the initial transmission scheduling performance in
heavy-load scenarios. In heavy-load scenarios, the initial transmission scheduling success rate increases, and the values of the counters
such as the number of downlink scheduled UEs, downlink PRB usage, and downlink throughput in a cell may increase. The CPU usage on
the user plane may also increase.

Preferential Allocation of High-Frequency Resources

If preferential allocation of high-frequency resources is enabled for a cell, RB allocation for downlink scheduling can start from the high end
of the cell's frequency range. Preferential allocation of high-frequency resources reduces downlink interference on the low end of the cell's
frequency range by allowing RB allocation for downlink scheduling to start from the high end of the frequency range.

MCS Index Selection Optimization for Downlink Paired UEs with Small-Amount Data Transmission
If the amount of downlink data to be initially transmitted is small for paired UEs, the transport block size (TBS) selected for the initial
transmission may be greater than the amount of data to be transmitted. To resolve this issue, MCS index selection optimization for
downlink paired UEs with small-amount data transmission is introduced. This function is controlled by the
MM_DL_SCH_AND_MCS_OPT_SWITCH option under the CellMMAlgo.MMAlgoOptSwitch parameter. When this option is selected, the
eNodeB selects a small MCS index while maintaining the number of allocated RBs. This reduces transmissions of invalid data and the
number of retransmissions and increases the average downlink throughput of paired UEs.

Page 110
 Impacts of eRAN15.0 New Features on eRAN13.1 Networks
LBFD-00101501 CQI Adjustment
CQI Filtering Based on Spectral Efficiency Optimization
When this function is enabled, each time the eNodeB receives a CQI value from a UE, it determines the difference between the reported
CQI and the previous filtered CQI. If the difference is large, the eNodeB adjusts the reported CQI based on spectral efficiency optimization,
and then applies filtering to the adjusted CQI and the previous filtered CQI. If the difference is small, the eNodeB directly applies filtering to
the reported CQI and the previous filtered CQI. If the network has moderate or heavy loads in the downlink (for example, the downlink PRB
usage is greater than 20%) and the proportion of rank 2 and above exceeds 40%, the downlink user-perceived rate will increase by 1% to
3% after this function takes effect.

LBFD-00201802 Coverage Based Inter-frequency Handover

1. Frequency-specific Setting of Offset to A5 Threshold 1 for Coverage-based Inter-Frequency Handover
For event A5 related to coverage-based inter-frequency handovers, the RSRP offset and RSRQ offset to the event A5 threshold 1 can
be frequency-specific. This allows for various handover possibilities among the frequencies.

2. Different QCI-specific Settings of the Inter-Frequency Event A2 RSRP Threshold for Different Operators
The inter-frequency event A2 RSRP thresholds used to trigger coverage-based inter-frequency handovers can now be dependent on
the QCI of highest-priority services on individual UEs for different operators.

 Nokia Features Proposal
LTE2369: Message 3 DTX Robustness
This feature improves the success rate of Random Access procedure. A more accurate reception of message 3 (e.g.
RRC Connection Request) becomes possible by decreasing the probability of false discontinuous transmission
(DTX) detections. As a result, faster start of the data transfer and reduced number of message 1 (Random Access
Preamble) and message 2 (Random Access Response) transmissions between the UE and the eNB.

LTE2582: DL 4x4 MIMO with Carrier Aggregation

This feature enhances the carrier aggregation (CA) functionality by combining 4x4 MIMO with Carrier Aggregation.
As a result, network capacity is increased in low-load and medium-load scenarios. The throughput depends on the
number of capable UEs in the areas where 4x4 MIMO is deployed together with CA.

LTE2630: Uplink Control Information Only Transmission

This feature is used to retrieve the UCI via the physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) if there is no user data
transmission. This is provides an improved downlink channel-aware scheduler performance for scenarios where
the eNB cannot receive the channel quality indicator (CQI) information via the existing mechanism.
