Tuning Scenarios

In initial tuning service, the main objective is to ensure that all major faults in the network are fixed before it is ready for service acceptance and commercial service. With new or improved features introduced in every RAN release, it is important for the engineers involved to be familiar with these features. This chapter is structured as follows:-

a. Initial Tuning considerations for a pure R99 network in a single carrier.

b. Considerations when R99 and GSM networks co-exists

c. Deployment of R99 in two carrier situation.

d. R99 and HSPA (HSDPA and EUL) in a single carrier.

e. R99 and HSPA in two carrier situation.
f. R99 and HSPA with introduction of MBMS
