3G QoS follow-up for SFR network (French operator, Utran NEC-Siemens) and support for NEC Radio Optimisation teams :
• Tests on Idle mode reselection parameters (2G/3G and 3G/2G) with SFR to decrease indisponibility time for the users (in 3G/2G ping-pong areas)
• Creation of an algorithm for crossfeeder detection method with counters, based on 3G/3G and 3G/2G flows
• Study of HSDPA impact on UMTS R99 with counters
• KPI’s follow-up on different NEC-Siemens areas
• Bug reporting on Siemens UTRAN, follow-up with Siemens TAC2
Service of “ Follow-up and maintenance of the Paris area 3G QoS” in SFR Paris, for NEC France. Objective : to place at the disposal of SFR Paris engineers teams the means necessary to their work of optimization-QoS.
• Kpi’s formulas definition with Utran raw counters
• Creation of reports “batch” generated automatically by day/week to identify easily the cells of bad QoS
• Confrontation between counters data and probes data : traces analysing on Iub and Iur with probes
• Counters analysing on Paris area (Siemens reference area), to increase QoS and obtain targets values for Kpi’s fixed by SFR. Traces analysing with NEMO
Drivetest preparation and post-processing : Tilts and azimuts modifications following data analysis with RSCP and ECNO predictions (using WCARD), to improve radio KPIs (RSCP, ECNO, number of SC in AS). Troubleshooting of coverage and quality problems.
