There are 504 PCI totally, which are divided into 168 groups,
each containing 3 PCIs.

PCI Conflict Type
PCI Collision
PCI Collision
If two intra-frequency cells use an identical
PCI but they are poorly isolated, PCI
collision occurs between them. In this case,
UEs in the overlapping area of the two cells
cannot implement signal synchronization or
PCI Confusion decoding.
PCI Confusion
If two or more neighbor cell have the same
PCI configuration, then the eNodeB can not
identify them while UE report, which cause
handover call drop

Real Time PCI Conflict
PCI conflict information can be observed in two ways:
If PCI ConflictAlarmSwitch in on,the PCI conflict alarm can
be show in alarm panel

PCI Conflict Detection Based on
eNodeB Parameters Change
The following 2 scenarios data modification can trigger PCI
conflict detection, function is controlled by license
If the PCI or frequency of a local cell of any eNodeB changes,
the eNodeB checks the PCI conflict between the local cell and
its external cells

PCI Conflict Detection Based on
Event ANR
ANR is a self-optimization function. It automatically
complete and correct neighbor relationships, when
neighboring cell information in NCL or NRT is changed
by ANR, PCI Conflict detection will be triggered.

Principle of Self - Optimization
When new PCIs are reallocated, the following factors should
be taken account:
Consider 1st and 2nd bidirectional neighboring cells to avoid
PCI collision and PCI confusion

Summary
PCI conflict detection and self-optimization is a valid solution to
maintain radio network works normally .
This solution needs eNodeB and U2000 work together . eNodeB
plays a role in detecting PCI conflict ,and there are many ways to
trigger PCI conflict detection. U2000 handles all the conflict by the
means of reallocating new PCIs to conflicting cells.
PCI conflict can be observed in the form of log、alarm、and real-time
display.
When PCI conflict is solved ,the process of handover and
synchronization will be improved , meanwhile, the real-time conflict
message will decrease or disappear.
