3 LTE Site Information - Physical Layer Cell ID (PCI) - RACH Root Sequence Index - Tracking Area Code (TAC) 3 Nokia Siemens Networks 2013

4 Physical Layer Cell ID (PCI) What is the PCI? Physical Layer Cell Identity (PCI) identifies a cell within a network. There are 504 Physical Layer Cell Identities. So, PCI is not unique! PCI is defined by the parameter phycellid : Parameter Object Range Default phycellid LNCEL 0 to Nokia Siemens Networks 2013

5 PCI Planning Principle UE should never receive simultaneously the same PCI from more than one cell. Neighbour cells should not have the same PCI (collision free). Neighbour of neighbour cells should not have the same PCI (confusion free). In priority order, below are the recommendations when planning the PCI. No.1 is the most important. All four should be fulfilled, ideally. Id = 5 Id = 2 Id = 3 Id = 4 Id = 0 Id = 1 Id = 11 Id = 8 Id = 9 Id = 10 Example 1 PCI Identity Plan Id = 6 Id = 7 1. Avoid assigning the same PCI to neighbour cells. 2. Avoid assigning the same mod3(pci) to neighbour cells. 3. Avoid assigning the same mod6(pci) to neighbour cells. 4. Avoid assigning the same mod30(pci) to neighbour cells. Example 2 PCI Identity Plan 5 Nokia Siemens Networks 2013

6 PRACH Planning Principle PRACH configuration of two cells must be different within the PRACH re-use distance to increase the RACH decoding success rate. PRACH transmission can be separated by: Time (prachconfindex) Frequency (prachfreqoff) Sequence (prachcs and RootSeqIndex) Parameter Object Range Default prachconfindex LNCEL , step 1 3 prachfreqoff LNCEL 0 94, step 1 - prachcs LNCEL 0 15, step 1 12 RootSeqIndex LNCEL 0 837, step 1-6 Nokia Siemens Networks 2013

7 PRACH Planning Planning Steps 1. Define the PRACH Configuration Index (prachconfindex) Depends on preamble format which depends on the cell range. PrachConfIdenx should be the same for each cell of a site. 2. Define the PRACH Frequencey Offset (prachfreqoff) Depends on the PUCCH region. For simplicity, prachfreqoff can be assumed to be the same for all cells of a network. 3. Define the PRACH Cyclic Shift (prachcs) Depends on the cell range. If, for simplicity, same cell range is assumed for all network, then prachcs is the same for all cells. 4. Define the RACH Root Sequence (rootseqindex) It points to the first root sequence. It needs to be different for neighbour cells. RootSeqIndex separation between cells depends on how many are necessary per cell (i.e. depends on PrachCS) 7 Nokia Siemens Networks 2013

8 PRACH Planning PRACH Configuration Index, PRACH Frequency Offset, PRACH Cyclic Shift Cell Range PUCCH Region RACH Density = 1 If PRACH area is placed at the lower border of UL frequency band, then : prachfreqoff = roundup [PUCCH resources/2] If PRACH area is placed at the upper border of UL frequency band, then : prachfreqoff = NRB 6 roundup [PUCCH resources/2] prachconfindex = 3 prachfreqoff = 4 prachcs = 12 8 Nokia Siemens Networks 2013

9 PRACH Planning RACH Root Sequence PRACH Cyclic Shift defines the number of cyclic shift (in terms of number of samples) used to generate multiple preamble sequences from a single root sequence. prachcs = 12 number of cyclic = 119 Root sequence length is 839. So a cyclic shift of 119 means : roundown [839/119] = 7 signatures per root sequence 64 preambles are transmitted in the PRACH frame. If one root sequence is not enough to generate 64 preambles, then more root sequences are required. So : Roundup [64 preambles / 7] = 10 root sequences per cell Root Sequence Index points to the first root sequence to be used when generating the set of 64 preamble sequences. rootseqindex = 0, 10, 20, 30,,820, 830 Recommendation : Use different Root Sequence Index across neighbouring cells to ensure neighbour cells will use different preamble sequences 9 Nokia Siemens Networks 2013

42 Drive Test Output The following problems can be detected from drive test. Overshooting. Pilot Pollution. Missing Neighbour. Un-optimized Parameters. 42 Nokia Siemens Networks 2013

43 Pilot Pollution What is Pilot Pollution? Less than 3-5 db different RSRP among PCIs are considered as potential interfering PCIs. How to detect? Based on drive test log. Check serving PCI versus Top 4 PCIs. Less than 3-5 db different RSRP among PCIs are considered as potential interfering PCIs. Count PCIs less than 5 db RSRP different. Count 3 ~ 4 PCIs should be considered for antenna optimization. 43 Nokia Siemens Networks 2013

44 Pilot Pollution DL Radio Quality Possible problems : Reduction of SINR Increase of DL interference from other cells Frequent handover Lower SINR area is matched together with multiple PCIs area 44 Nokia Siemens Networks 2013

45 Pilot Pollution UL Radio Quality In area with low RSRP, UL Power Headroom is limited. 45 Nokia Siemens Networks 2013

46 Pilot Pollution Counted PCIs Pollution RSRP There are 4 ~ 6 PCIs with less than 3 db different of RSRP. 46 Nokia Siemens Networks 2013

47 Pilot Pollution After Antenna Downtilting Before After After antenna downtilting, SINR is improving. 47 Nokia Siemens Networks 2013

48 Pilot Pollution After Antenna Downtilting Before After The number of Handover attempts has been reduced which is indicating more clear dominant areas after antenna downtilting. 48 Nokia Siemens Networks 2013

49 Pilot Pollution After Antenna Tilting Before After Before After SINR improvement is around 2 db. 49 Nokia Siemens Networks 2013

50 Pilot Pollution After Antenna Tilting 50 Nokia Siemens Networks 2013

51 Missing Neighbour How to detect? Perform drive test (PING test should be enough). Consider measurement reports without Handover command as missing neighbours. Monitor Handover performance from drive test and KPIs. Monitor other KPIs (such as CSSR, Drop Rate, Early Handover, Late Handover, etc.). 51 Nokia Siemens Networks 2013
