EcNo, RSCP, RSSI, CPICH

RSSI: recieved signal strength indicator.


RSSI= RSCP-Ec/Io

EcNo: energy per chip over the noise, a measure of the quality of the signal

RSCP: Energy after processing ie with gain from coding etc
RSCP = RSSI + EcNo

RSSI: A dB measure of the signal arriving at the antenna before gain from
processing
CPICH: Pilot Channel of the cell.
You have to measure two parameter on pilot ch (Ec/No & RSCP) to verify P-CPICH
detection to minimise coverage holes,
Ex: (RSCP > -100dBm (sufficient) & Ec/No > -14 (sufficient))
& by correlation between low Ec/No & high RSCP you can find the interference &
pilot pollution.
