Radio Network Optimisation

High quality of service in mobile networks is the prerequisite for the commercial success. I have the experience and the software tools to achieve this. My aim is to optimise networks both technically and economically.


MySQL Optimisation Database



The listing below describes a standard optimisation project:

Project Initialization

■ Local introduction
■ Definition of the final optimisation strategy
■ Data collection (site name, antenna type, power,…)
■ Data formatting


Drive test & performance data measurement

The Measurements shall be performed during busy hour and in cooperation with the local staff (min. 7 days):

■ RXLEV, RXQUAL, handover performance, …
■ Dropped calls, quality, congestion, …
■ …


Network evaluation

The network evaluation includes e.g:

■ Drive test data analysis
■ Performance data analysis
■ BSS parameter analysis
■ Air interface analysis
■ Examination of existing problems
■ Proposing methods of optimisation


Planning of the network changes

Following network changes can be proposed:

■ Frequency / Scrambling Code
■ Handover planning
■ BSS / RAN default parameter
■ Air interface (down tilt, output power, TRX, …)


Preparation of configuration

The preparation of the optimised network configuration shall be performed in cooperation with the local staff:

■ Script files for all optimised parameter
■ Preparation for the hardware changes
■ Strategy for the implementation (Start, locations, …)


Configuration on Air

All network changes will be implemented in cooperation with the local staff


Drive test & performance data control measurements

The control measurements shall be performed during busy hour and in cooperation with the local staff:

■ RXLEV, RXQUAL, handover performance, …
■ Dropped calls, quality, congestion, …
■ …


Fine tuning

Some network fine tunings will be performed after the implementation of all network changes e.g:

■ Frequencies / Scrambling Code
■ Handover planning
■ BSS default parameter
■ Air interface (down tilt, output power, TRX, …)
■ …


Optimisation report

The network optimisation report includes:

■ Results of the network optimisation
■ Drive tests and performance data measurements
■ Final recommendations


Final Presentation

The results of the network optimisation will be presented at the end of the project
