Requirements
BSS S11 & UltraSite CX4.04
ULTRASITE EDGE HW
EDGE TRX (non-EDGE TRX can be used in the same cabinet if it is in a
non-hopping or RF Hopping mode)
Minimum of 2 TRXs per BTS (or cell) where both are used for
antenna hopping
Antenna Hopping Groups can include the BCCH
NOKIA
Company Confidential
Restrictions
The following features cannot be used together with Antenna
Hopping:
NOKIA
Company Confidential
Implementation
Set parameter antenna hopping (AHOP) to Y
AHOP is BTS level
If HW configuration supports AH (i.e., two transmitting antennae),
site visit is not needed

Conclusions
Quality and capacity improvements in interference limited
networks
1-3 dB gain without FH (TU3, 0.5 correlation between TX antennas)
0.5 dB gain with RH5 (TU3, 0.5 correlation between TX antennas)
Actual field trials show a 20% gain in the Drop Call Rate
Mobile and Static traffic benefit from the processing gain
Improved KPIs (DCR and HOSR)
Possible benefits on hopping layer with high frequency correlation
