1. SSV PREPARATION
After BSS team declare that site is ready for SSV, there are
some item need to be check:
 Alarm check
 VSWR check
MML command : GET RRUVSWR
 BSID check
MML command : DSP BSID
 Clock source check
MML command : LST CLKSRC
 Time source Check
MML command : LST TIMESRC

1. SSV PREPARATION
When the all of BSS team setting is correct, then we input
the RNP Parameter such as:
 CarrierBasicInfo
Include: Frequency, Bandwidth, Sub Frame Ratio, EIRP
MML command : LST CARRIERBASICINFO, MOD CARRIERBASICINFO
 MIMO
MML command : LST MIMOPARA, MOD MIMOPARA
 Neighbor list
MML command : LST NBR, ADD NBR, RMV NBR
 Handoff parameter
MML command : LST HOPARA, MOD HOPARA
 Trigger parameter
MML command : LST TRIGGER, ADD TRIGGER, RMV TRIGGER

2. Cluster RF Optimization
 Baseline Drive test
Do the baseline drive test to analyze the network real
condition before do the RF optimization
Example : Cluster Ampar (total 12 sites) First Media WiMAX Project

2. Cluster RF Optimization
 RF Optimization step Study case: Site Swadaya Ampar coverage

1. Put the Drive tester at the bad area

2. Block carrier of all of site in cluster CINR
3. Unblock carrier of site Swadaya Ampar M-S-GF
4. Order the Drive tester to test the CINR quality
(just do static test for time efficiency) Drive tester
5. Unblock the surrounding site one by one until
we find the suspect site which made bad CINR
6. In this case, the suspect site is Site Ikan Hias M-
I-GF (overshooting)
7. Then, try to reduce the EIRP of Ikan Hias M-I-
GF per 3 dBm until signal of Ikan Hias M-I-GF
not impact the bad area
8. The best EIRP of Ikan Hias M-I-GF = 31 dBm
9. Then, reduce the antenna tilting
Formula :
Reduce 3 dBm EIRP ≈ Reduce 10 Antenna Tilt

 RF Optimization step Study case: Site Swadaya Ampar coverage

10. EIRP : 40 dBm to 31 dBm, means that we

reduce 9 dBm, so :
Reduce 9 dBm EIRP ≈ Reduce 30 Antenna Tilt
11. Then adjust the antenna tilt
12. Next, drive test the bad area coverage and
also the surrounding site to make sure the
adjustment not impact to the other coverage
