2 GSM Service KPI
About This Chapter
The following KPIs are GSM Service KPIs.

2.1 CS Accessibility KPIs
This describes the CS accessibility KPIs that mainly indicate the call success rate when an MS
accesses the network. Low accessibility KPIs directly lead to low user satisfaction.
2.2 CS Mobility KPIs
This describes the CS Mobility KPIs that indicate the success rate of handovers on the move. In
addition, these KPIs indicate the capability of providing continuous services. A low handover
success rate may lead to a high call drop rate.
2.3 CS Receive Quality KPIs
This describes the CS Receive Quality KPIs that indicate the mean receive quality rank on the
TCH.
2.4 CS Resource Utilization KPIs
This describes the CS Resource Utilization KPIs that are used to monitor the load of hot cells
and the network. These KPIs can serve as references for capacity expansion. The traffic volume
KPIs help to obtain the ratio of busy-hour traffic to idle-hour traffic, to evaluate the utilization
of system resources, and to adjust charges. The equipment availability KPIs help to know the
running status of equipment, such as the running status of channels. If these KPIs are low,
equipment and transmission may be faulty.
2.5 CS Retainability KPIs
This describes the CS Retainability KPIs that indicate the ratio of moving MSs to all MSs, the
moving frequency. In addition, these KPIs indicate the capability of providing continuous
services. A low success rate leads to low user satisfaction.
2.6 PS Accessibility KPIs
This describes the PS Accessibility KPIs that indicate whether MSs can easily access cells. Poor
PS Accessibility KPIs directly affect user satisfaction.
2.7 PS Data Throughput KPIs
This describes the PS Data Throughput Rate KPIs. They involve the performance factors
associated with the terminals, the radio access network, and the core network. Now, the main
performance problem is concerned with the radio access network. Therefore, these KPIs indicate

SingleRAN
2 GSM Service KPI KPI Reference
the end-to-end service data link bearing capability of the GPRS network, which are directly
related to user satisfaction.
2.8 PS delay KPIs
This describes the PS Delay KPIs that indicate the service response speed of the network. Long
delay affects user satisfaction.
2.9 PS Resource Utilization Rate KPIs
This describes the PS Resource Utilization Rate KPIs that indicate the utilization of the network
resource and the busy states of services. Thus, these KPIs can be used to guide network
expansion.
2.10 PS Retainability KPIs
This describes the PS Retainability KPIs that mainly involves the uplink and downlink TBF call
drop rates. These KPIs indicate the capability of providing continuous services by the network
and are directly related to user satisfaction. Thus, an increase in call drop rate directly leads to
a decrease in user satisfaction.
2.11 PS Transmission Performance KPIs
This describes the PS Transmission Performance KPIs that indicates the quality of radio
transmission links in a cell. If the RLC data block retransmission rate in a cell is high, the quality
of the radio transmission links in the cell is poor. Therefore, take corresponding measures, such
as RF optimization.

3 UMTS Service KPI
About This Chapter
The following KPIs are UMTS Service KPIs.

3.1 Accessibility
Accessibility is the ability of a user to obtain the requested service from the system. RRC
connection and RAB setup are the main procedures of accessibility. These items can be
calculated per cell and per RNC, and the RNC level KPI is calculated by aggregating all the cell
counters that belong to the RNC.
3.2 Availability
Availability KPIs mainly indicate the utilization for several kinds of of network resources such
as Radio,bandwith or CPU load.
3.3 Coverage
Coverage KPIs are uesed for monitoring cell Interference status and Soft Handover Gain in a
RNC or a cluster.
3.4 Mobility
Mobility KPIs are used to monitoring the successful ratio for several kinds of of handover
features or service mode changing in difference scenarios.
3.5 Retainability
Retainability is defined as the ability of a user to retain its requested service for the desired
duration once connected. These items can be calculated per cell or per RNC. The RNC level
KPIs can be calculated by aggregating all the cell counters and Iur counters. If RNC switch on
preemption feature, the release due to preemption is statistic into call drop with abnormal release.
3.6 Service Integrity
Service Integrity KPIs mainly indicated the service capabilities for PS/HSPA throughput on
busy hour in each cell and the service UL Average BLER for evaluating the UL BLER value of
services in each cell.
3.7 Traffic
Traffic KPIs are used to evaluate the circulated traffic such as CS Equivalent Erlang,PS
Traffic,Mean UE number for several kinds of of services in a RNC or cluster.

3.1.1 IU Paging Success Ratio

This KPI can be used to evaluate the successful responses to the paging from the Core Network
(CN) in one RNC. However, the lower paging success ratio does not always mean the lower
paging response because paging may be occurred due to the unnecessary paging messages from
the CN. Therefore, the terminal radio access success ratio and the CN's paging strategy should
be analyzed for further confirmation.

3.1.2 Radio Access Success Ratio(RNC)

A complete call setup procedure contains the RRC connection, RAB setup, and Direct Transfer.
Generally only the RRC connection and the RAB setup can be observed from RAN and it is
usually assumed that no error occurs when RAN handles the direct transfer messages. That is,
the authentication procedure is considered to be successfully performed. This KPI can be used
to evaluate the radio access success ratio in a RNC, and the access failures caused by the SCCP
congestion are not considered in this call setup procedure.
