RNP&O Service
There are four phases during network lifecycle: Pre-Bidding, Bidding,

Implementation, Maintenance
The RNP&O services are present throughout the network lifecycle, divided

by four parts: Scheme Traction, Radio Network Planning (including Nominal

Planning, Site Selection, Detail Planning), Radio Networking Optimization
(including Initial Tuning, Network Performance Improvement), On-going

Initial Tuning Procedure

Single Site Verification
To check whether the actual engineering parameters and RF parameters
are consistent with the planning result, and whether the service function, as
well as the coverage ability and the antenna installation, is normal or not.

Attention

The PM should launch a spot-check to the sites by

5%.
Alarm data and cells status should be collected
before the drive test.

Key points
The manners and contents of Acceptance test: test by cluster, test the whole network
It is different between network performance acceptance test and equipment acceptance test. The performance
acceptance test is to check whether the KPI meet the requirement mentioned in the contract.

Network Performance Monitoring

The network performance will meet the requirement of acceptance after the
optimization. But before the official acceptance test, continuous monitoring should
be taken to ensure the prosperous acceptance.

Attentions
For swap or expansion project, the network
performance before and after the implementation
should be included in the optimization report.
