The following table gives an idea of the correlation between RXQUAL and
FER and between subjective speech quality and different FER classes.
Typically, the share of the RXQUAL classes 6 and 7 may increase after FH
is switched on, even if no other changes have been made. This may seem
to be surprising since it is expected that frequency hopping improves the
network quality. However, in most cases the quality is actually improved,
but the improvement is more visible in the call success ratio. The improved
tolerance against interference and low field strength in FH network means
that it is less likely that the decoding of SACCH frames fails causing
increment in the radio link timeout counter. Thus, it is less likely that a call
is dropped because of the radio link timeout. Instead, the calls generating
high RXQUAL samples tend to stay on. This may lead to increase in the
share of RXQUAL 6-7. However, at the same time the call success rate is
significantly improved.
In the Error! Reference source not found., there are presented some trial
results of a DL RXQUAL distribution with different frequency allocation
reuse patterns. As can be seen from the figures, the tighter the reuse
becomes, the less samples fall in quality class 0 and more samples fall in
quality classes 1-6. Theres bigger difference in downlink than in uplink
direction.
In a case of the random hopping, this means that the measured idle
channel interference is likely to be the same for all the TRXs that use the
same MA-list. If the interference is averaged over more than one SACCH
frame, the averaging effect is even stronger. However, normally the
interferers are mobiles located in interfering cells. In this case, there are
probably differences in the measured idle channel interferences between
different time slots in the cell. This happens, because the interfering
mobiles are only transmitting during the time slot that has been allocated
to them. This is illustrated in Figure Error! No text of specified style in

Discontinuous reception
Another method used to conserve power at the mobile station is
discontinuous reception. The paging channel, used by the base station to
signal an incoming call, is structured into sub-channels. Each mobile
station needs to listen only to its own sub-channel. In the time between
successive paging sub-channels, the mobile can go into sleep mode, when
almost no power is used.
All of this increases battery life considerably when compared to analog

1. INTRODUCTION
Every Network needs to be under continues control to maintain/improve
the
performance. Optimization is basically the only way to keep track of the
network by
looking deep into statistics and collecting/analyzing drive test data. It is
keeping an eye
on its growth and modifying it for the future capacity enhancements. It
also helps
operation and maintenance for troubleshooting purposes.
Successful Optimization requires:
Recognition and understanding of common reasons for call failure
Capture of RF and digital parameters of the call prior to drop
Analysis of call flow, checking messages on both forward and reverse
links to establish what happened, where, and why.
Optimization will be more effective and successful if you are aware of what
you are
doing. The point is that you should now where to start, what to do and how
to do.
