OSS Based xACP

3G RF Automatic Optimization: Project Proposal Feb 2012

Project Scope
Scope:
Utilization of Optimi OSS Based xACP solution in a city/area of CUSTOMER network to demonstrate the performance gains achievable using automated cell level RF parameter optimization

Objectives:
1. Obtain performance improvement based on agreed objectives 2. Demonstrate the tool operation

Phases:

Verification of tool adapters (configuration and performance management data) and output files Automatic RF Optimization (including NL optimization) Report generation and trial goal evaluation

Project Tasks & Deliverables

Daily operations/Tasks
CUSTOMER should provide the required inputs (physical information, raster maps, OSS data, etc) Optimi engineer(s) will be in charge of building the project and running the RF optimization Optimi will provide the optimized RF optimization settings Optimi will provide the optimized NB list optimization list After CUSTOMER engineers review and approval, optimized RF design should be loaded into the network

Deliverables
RF Optimization NL Optimization Final Report: Optimi will provide a final report with final project summary and results

Success Criteria
Based on network OSS KPIs. Possible KPIs (5% improvement)

Quality Improve % DCR due to missing neighbors Improve % calls in 3-way or 4-way soft handover Capacity Reduce Congestion/Blocking Reduce iRAT rate (%)

Procedure
(5 working days before the optimization) versus (5 working days after the optimization) In case of specific events/failures happening in the network during the benchmarking phase: Those faulty days/cells will be identified and agreed between both parties (maybe agree to exclude them from evaluation).
