2G Creation
GSM-900MHz/DCS-1800MHz
General information for (BCCH):
DL Channel, Carry Cell Specific (Frequency, LAC, List of
Neighboring Cells and Sync).
General information for (TCH):
Carries either encoded speech or user data up and down link
between a single mobile and a single BTS.
Neighbors Configuration: Reselection (2G – 3G ) in Idle mode.
Identifying BCCH & TCH
Identifying BSC
Identifying Neighbors
Identifying BSIC
3G Creation
UMTS-2100MHz
• IRAT (3G – 2G) on Call.
Acceptance Steps
(1)
Drive Test
RSCP Level
Indoor
Outdoor
Tems Investigation Important Windows
Expected Problems
Cross “Sector & Feeder”
Bad Quality
If we have interfered frequency, We should re-plan it.
.Expected Problems Cont
• Pilot Pollution: Only in 3G.
Solution: Keep dominant site and down tilting the others, reduce their Power or
adjust antenna azimuth.
• Overshooting : 2G & 3G
Solution: reduce the Power or down tilting.
• Hand Over Failure: 2G and 3G , Due to cross or Missing neighbors.
Solution: revise neighbor list and re-sent configuration.
(2)
Alarms
Upper Site )Upp1780( Alarms
• There are two type of Alarms: Service Affecting Such as cell out of service or HW
problem..etc
and service Non affecting such as Pulglar “tower lamb”, air conditioning and door open alarms.

Conclusion & Future Vision
• Among the last training month we gained much additive information and
practicing.
• We had explained the detailed planning steps of a practical case study.
• Our future vision is to concentrate on practicing and help the planning team in his
tasks.
• Developing our abilities and experience to become one of RF team.
