SDCCH BLOCKING
REASONS:1.HIGH UTILIZATION TRAFFIC TREND 2.LESS NO. OF SDCCH DEFINED IN THE CELL 3.EXCESSIVE LAC UPDATIONS 4.CHECK BANDWIDTH OF LAPD (i.e.16kbps,32kbps,64kbps) 5.HARDWARE ISSUES 6.HIGH QUEING TIMER VALUES SOLUTIONS:1.CAPACITY ADDITION 2.MORE SDCCH DEFINITIONS OR USE DYNAMIC SD (LAPD LINK SHOULD BE 32KBPS) 3.REHOMINGS FOR UNEVEN LAC BOUNDRIES AND CRH,C2 VALUE RETUNING 4.LAPD AUGMENTATION (i.e. 16 to 32kbps etc.) 5.CLEARANCE OF HARDWARE ALARMS 6.OPTIMIZE THE QUEING VALUES

TCH ASSIGNMENT SUCCESS RATE

REASONS 1.HARDWARE ISSUES 2.HIGH TCH BLOCKING 3.OVERSHOOTING 4. FULL OR PARTIAL CABLE SWAP IN THE BTS

SOLUTIONS:1.CHECK THE CABLE PATHS,LOOSE CONNECTIONS,ALARMS 2.CAPACITY ADDITION 3.TILT FINE TUNING REQUIRED AT THE CELL OR USE TMA FOR UPLINK PATH 4.CHECK THE PARTIAL SWAP IN THE BTS(2 SECTORS OF THE SAME BTS MAY HAVING A PARTIAL SAWP)

HANDOVER SUCCESS RATE

REASONS:1.IMPROPER NEIGBOUR PLAN (i.e. non-symmetrical neighbors) 2.CHECK PLANED VS ACTUAL DATABASE IN THE SYSTEM 3.SL VALUES 4.OVERSHOOTING 5.DAC VALUE MISMATCH 6.SYNC MISMATCH 7.HARWARE ALLARS AND FAULTY HARDWARE SOLUTIONS:1.CHECK THE NEIGHBOUR PLAN,MAX 12 NEIGHBOUR SHOULD BE CREATED,NBR SHOULD BE BOTH WAYS. 2.CHECK THE NBRs WITH SAME NCC+BCC+BCCH COMBINATIONS,WRONG MNC AND LAC DEFINITION 3.SL VALUE SHOULD NOT BE VERY LESS 4.PHYSICAL FINE TUNING REQUIRED. 5.DAC VALUE SHOULD BE EITHER +/-150 FROM 2048 IN THE BCF OF ALL THE ADJACENCIES AND SOURCE CELL AS WELL

6.CHECK THE REPORTS AND ENABLE SYNC FOR THE INTRA CELL RELATIONS
