3G network QoS estimation in a multi service context

The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the benefit of radio parameter optimisation applied to 3G mobile networks with a special emphasis on packet switched services. The optimisation is carried out using an automatic cell planner (ACP) on a realistic 3G network. Key performance indicators (KPI) ar...

Summary:The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the benefit of radio parameter optimisation applied to 3G mobile networks with a special emphasis on packet switched services. The optimisation is carried out using an automatic cell planner (ACP) on a realistic 3G network. Key performance indicators (KPI) are elicited for both circuit switched (CS) and packet switched (PS) services and the QoS benefit of the optimisation is assessed using a fast dynamic modelling tool. The economical cost of the optimisation can then be compared to revenue gains to guide operators' processes.
