6 E-UTRAN KPI Definitions
6.1 KPI Category "Accessibility"

6.1.1 E-RAB Accessibility
6.1.1.1 Definition
a) E-RAB Accessibility.
b) A KPI that shows probability for an end-user to be provided with an E-RAB at request.
c) Probability success rate for E-RABs establishment. Successful attempts compared with total number of attempts
for the different parts of the E-RAB establishment.

f) E-UTRAN
g) Accessibility
h) Percentage
i) RATIO
j) The definition of the service provided by E-UTRAN is E-RABs.
6.1.1.2 Extended definition
Mapping of end-user applications towards E-RABs can be different depending on operator strategy; hence the
measurement shall be adjustable depending on operator E-RAB mapping strategy.
Table 1 Example of service mapping towards E-RABs
Operator Service E-RAB mapping
A X Initial E-RAB
ETSI
A Y Initial E-RAB
B X Initial E-RAB
B Y Added E-RAB
To provide Accessibility measurement from E-UTRAN that can be mapped to a service for the operator the following
measurements are defined:
A1: Initial E-RAB establishment success rate
A2: Added E-RAB establishment success rate
The establishment success rate is defined as:
Number of successful E-RAB establishments

Number of received E-RAB establishment attempts
Services can be mapped towards either Initial or Added E-RABs depending on operator strategy. If a different QoS
characteristic is required compared with the QoS characteristic provided by an existing Initial E-RAB, an Added E-
RAB can be requested. QoS characteristics can be defined on an E-RAB basis; hence both Initial E-RAB establishment
success rate (A1) and Added E-RAB establishment success rate (A2) shall be available per QoS group.
With these two measures the operator can calculate the service accessibility depending on E-RAB mapping as follows:
Service mapped on Initial E-RAB = A1*100 [%]
Service mapped on Added E-RAB = A1*A2*100 [%]
6.2 KPI Category "Retainability"

6.2.1 E-RAB Retainability
6.2.1.1 Definition
a) E-RAB Retainability.
b) A measurement that shows how often an end-user abnormally looses an E-RAB during the time the E-RAB is
used.
c) Number of E-RABs with data in a buffer that was abnormally released, normalized with number of data session
time units.
d) To measure E-RAB Retainability for a single QCI (R1) is fairly straight forward.
ERAB.RelActNbr.QCI QCI = x
R1QCI = x =
ERAB.SessionTimeQCI .QCI QCI = x
However to measure the E-RAB Retainability for UEs is not as straight forward. The measurement R1 is
defined to look at the activity level of just one QCI at the time, so to use this formula and measurements in an
aggregated way to get E-RAB Retainability on UE level will not be accurate (e.g. for an UE with multiple E-
RABs, there might be E-RABs that are active at the same time, hence aggregating the QCI measurements for
session time will give a larger session time than the total UE session time. See picture below).
ETSI
One activity period
Hence a measurement E-RAB Retainability on UE level is defined (R2) to provide a measurement for the overall
E-RAB Retainability.
∑ ERAB.RelActNbr.[QCI ]
R2 = QCI
ERAB.SessionTimeUE
e) ERAB.RelActNbr.QCI
ERAB.SessionTimeUE
ERAB.SessionTimeQCI.QCI
f) E-UTRAN.
g) Retainability.
h) Active release/second.
i) MEAN.
j) The definition of the service provided by E-UTRAN is E-RABs.
The retainability rate is defined as:
Number of abnormally released E-RAB with data in any of the buffers [Releases/Session time]
Active E-RAB Time
As for defining an abnormal E-RAB release with end-user impact, it shall only be considered an abnormal release of the
E-RABs if the eNodeB considers there to be data waiting for transfer in any of the buffers.
As for defining an E-RAB as active, an E-RAB shall be considered active if there recently has been any data
transmission in any direction.
ETSI
6.3 KPI Category "Integrity"

6.3.1 E-UTRAN IP Throughput
6.3.1.1 Definition
a) E-UTRAN IP Throughput.
b) A KPI that shows how E-UTRAN impacts the service quality provided to an end-user.
c) Payload data volume on IP level per elapsed time unit on the Uu interface.
d) IP Throughput for a single QCI:
Downlink ThpQCI = x = DRB.IPThpDlQCI = x
Uplink ThpQCI = x = DRB.IPThpUlQCI = x
e) DRB.IPThpDl.QCI
DRB.IPThpUl.QCI
f) E-UTRAN
g) Integrity
h) kbits/s
i) MEAN
j) To make sure that only impacts from the RAN is included in this measurement, time units to be included in
“elapsed time unit on the Uu interface “shall only be the ones where there is data in the buffer to be transmitted
E.g.in application data flows such as a web session, there are times when there is no data to transmit by the
eNodeB due to bursty traffic pattern, then this “eNodeB idle time” shall not be included in “elapsed time unit on
the Uu interface “.

To achieve a Throughput measurement (below examples are given for DL) that is independent of file size it is important
to remove the samples where one TTI on the radio interface is not utilized. (Successful transmission, buffer empty in
figure below).
ETSI
Successful transmission,

Failed transmission ( ”Block TTI shall always be

transmitted to the UE again empty
ThpVolDl =∑ (kbits)
Total DL transferred volume = ∑ + (kbits)
IP Throughput in DL = ThpVolDl / ThpTimeDl (kbits/s)
Figure 1
To achieve a throughput measurement that is independent of bursty traffic pattern, it is important to make sure that idle
gaps between incoming data is not included in the measurements. That shall be done as considering each burst of data
as one sample.
ThpVolDl is the volume on IP level and the ThpTimeDl is the time elapsed on Uu for transmission of the volume
included in ThpVolDl.

IP Throughput DL = Samples
∑ ThpTimeDl

Since services can be mapped towards different kind of E-RABs, the IP Throughput measurement shall be available per
QoS group.
6.3.2 E-UTRAN IP Latency
6.3.2.1 Definition
a) E-UTRAN IP Latency.
ETSI
b) A measurement that shows how E-UTRAN impacts on the delay experienced by an end-user.
c) Time from reception of IP packet to transmission of first packet over the Uu.
d) Downlink Lat QCI = x = DRB.IPLatDlQCI = x
e) DRB.IPLatDl.QCI
f) E-UTRAN.
g) Integrity.
h) Milliseconds.
i) MEAN.
j) To make sure only contribution from the RAN is included in this measurement, only delay of the first block to
the Uu is counted.
To achieve a delay measurement that is independent of IP data block size only the first packet sent to Uu is measured.
To find the delay for a certain packet size the IP Throughput measure can be used together with IP Latency (after the
first block on the Uu, the remaining time of the packet can be calculated with the IP Throughput measure).

Latency_DL = ∑ T_Lat_DL (s) / # samples
Figure 3
T_Lat is defined as the time between receiption of IP packet and the time when the eNodeB transmits the first block to
Uu.
Since services can be mapped towards different kind of E-RABs, the Latency measure shall be available per QoS group.

UE in a neighboring cell.
"Success of execution phase" is defined as the point of time when the source eNB receives information that the UE
successfully is connected to the target cell.
