WCDMA Access Problem Analysis P-1
Confidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading Without Permission


According to the preset judgment conditions, the DT data analyzers can usually judge the
access failure problems during test. The analyzers include GENEX Assistant and Actix
Analyzer.
Since the access includes several steps: RRC setup, Authentication, Security mode ,PDP
activation ,RAB/RB setup, so any step may cause an access failure.
For these failures, the major causes of the problem include:
RRC and RAB/RB setup failure: Coverage, congestion and so on.
Authentication procedure failure: Unauthorized subscriber or equipment problem.
Security mode failure: The UE is unable to support configured encryption
algorithm.
PDP activation failure: Core Network Problem.

The RNC keeps the counters for access KPI.

By the counters, these KPIs can be calculated. For radio network, the access KPI , we
should focus on RRC success rate and RAB success rate.

If a service is not set up successfully, we define it as an access failure. In DT, we should

focus on the CS voice ,VP access success rate and PS service PDP context success rate.
HUAWEI DT tool: GENEX Probe
HUAWEI DT analyzing tool: GENEX Assistant
The DT tool can recognize an access failure automatically.
After UE sending RRC Connection Request message, if there is no alerting received
finally, the GENEX Assistant define this an access failure.
For a terminated call, after UE receiving paging type1 message, if there is no
alerting received finally, the GENEX Assistant define this an access failure.


By RNC level counters, we can monitor the global performance , and analyse the trend of
the performance.
When the RNC level performance is not stable, the cell level analysis is needed ,and the cell
level counter is designed in more detail.
The TOP10-cell analysis is very helpful to find out the main cause of the bad performance.

RTWP (Received Total Wide band Power ):Used to indicate UL interference level.

Locate the alarm around the time of the failures, especially for the critical and major
alarms.





This could be caused by:

PRACH problem: check the cell parameters.
UE hardware problem.

Preamble_Initial_Power = PCPICHPower - CPICH_RSCP + UL interference +

Constantvalue



Poor uplink coverage: If the CPICH Ec/No is lower than -14 dB, then the poor
coverage could be the cause of the access failure.
PRACH problem: check the cell parameters.



Poor downlink coverage: If the CPICH Ec/No is lower than -12dBm, then we can try
to modify the CPICH or FACH power, to enhance the downlink coverage.
Cell reselection: In the access procedure, if there is some neighbor cell better than
the serving cell, then we should modify the cell reselection parameter to shorten
the reselection delay time.


In the RRC connection reject message, RNC tells the UE cause of the rejection, this could
be caused by:
Congestion: it means the network is overloaded, we need to check the power,
OVSF code ,CE and IUB load.
Unspecified: it means the failure cause is out of defined, such as the WBBP board is
abnormal, so we should check the Log information in detail.



Poor downlink coverage: The RRC Connection Setup message is carried on FACH ,
after this, if the UE can not detect the DL DCH in time, it will not send RRC
connection setup complete message.


The improper power configuration on uplink DCH: The RRC Setup Complete
message is carried on UL DCH, the DCH power is control by the NodeB in a closed
loop mode.


The failure could be caused by admission rejection, UE fails in RB setup procedure or Uu

interface failure.

When the RNC receive the RAB Assignment Request, the RNC performs the admission
decision firstly. If the admission is rejected, Now you must check the uplink and downlink
load, code resource, Iub transmission resource, and CE resource, determine the type of
resource that causes congestion, and provide corresponding expansion methods.

This could be caused by abnormal UE: For example some types of UE dont support PS and
video phone simultaneously. If the UE is required to setup a VP while having a PS service,
then it send RB SETUP FAILURE to RNC.

RNC send RB SETUP to the UE, if UE can not give a feedback in time, RNC believes the
Uu procedure failure, and send a failed RAB ASSIGNMENT RESPONCE to CN. This
situation is common in poor coverage area.

The above figure is based on HUAWEI GENEX Assistant.

If the coverage rate is lower than the target KPI, then check the downlink and uplink
coverage :
Downlink coverage :CPICH RSCP
Uplink coverage: UE Tx Power

The above data is collected by M2000:

The average RTWP of cell 40661 is 104.36 dBm, needless of attention.
The average RTWP of cell 48602 reaches 94.89 dBm, so you must pay attention
to the cell.
The average RTWP of cell 58143 reaches 82.79 dBm, the cell strongly interfered,
so you must pay special attention to the cell.




The retransmission time interval is 3s, which is controlled by T300 in system information








Analysis on the EC/IO is based on the CHR(call history record)

TP is the abbreviation of time propagation, similarly like TA in GSM system. Actually it

equals to PD(propagation delay).its internal calling of Huawei instead of PD, in order to
remember it conveniently.
Analysis on the TP is based on the CHR

It is obvious that UE have received the RRC Connection Setup message, but the Uplink
synchronization is failed, UE dont send out RRC Connection Setup Complete message or
RNC dont receive the RRC Connection Setup Complete message.
IOSIntelligent Optimization Systemtrace is based on the M2000.






The cell 64971 and 64976 are blind neighbors on RNC, but in the NodeB side, they are
configured to different sector, that is to see the coverage of the 2 cells are not identical.
The same problem for cell 64972 and 64977.




RedirFactorOfLDR
Meaning:Possibility of redirecting the UE to another cell. When the UL load state or
DL load state of the serving cell is LDR or OLC, a UE may be redirected to another
cell according to the traffic type. When this parameter is set to 0, the RRC
redirection is not performed if the load state on the serving cell is LDR or OLC.
Value range: 0~100
Physical value range: 0~100
Physical unit: %
Recommended Value: AMR:50;Other:0



CSSR contain RRC setup and RAB setup procedure.

The above table information is based on the CHR information

NoDiscardMaxDAT
Meaning:This parameter specifies the maximum number of transmissions of a PDU
before the RLC entity is reset. When the mode is set to NO_DISCARD, the RLC
entity will be directly reset if the number of retransmissions of a PDU reaches the
value defined by this parameter. This parameter can be set large, if the target BLER
of the transport channel is high.
Value range:D1, D2, D3, D4, D5, D6, D7, D8, D9, D10, D15, D20, D25, D30, D35,
D40
Physical value range: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40
Physical unit: none
Recommended Value: D15















RSVDBIT1_BIT20 (Reserved Parameter 1 Bit 20)

When this switch is turned on, the RNC performs a state transition from CELL_PCH
or URA_PCH to CELL_FACH (P2F) upon receiving a CELL UPDATE message with the
cause value "uplink data transmission" or "paging response".
When this switch is turned off, if receiving a CELL UPDATE message with the cause
value "uplink data transmission" or "paging response," the RNC performs a state
transition from CELL_PCH or URA_PCH to CELL_DCH (P2D) in either of the
following scenarios:
(1)Congestion occurs on the FACH.
(2)Congestion occurs on the DCCH, and the value of the Establishment
cause information element (IE) in the message is Originating Conversational
Call, Terminating Conversational Call, or Emergency Call.
21) RSVDBIT1_BIT21 (Reserved Parameter 1 Bit 21)
When the switch is turned on, for UEs that are establishing AMR services and
shifting from the CELL_FACH state to the CELL_DCH state, the RNC stops
establishing AMR services to handle cell update if the RNC receives from the UEs a
cell update message containing the cause value "cell reselection."
When the switch is turned off, for UEs that are establishing AMR services and
shifting from the CELL_FACH state to the CELL_DCH state, if the RNC receives from
the UEs a cell update message containing the cause value "cell reselection," the
RNC stops establishing AMR services to handle cell update and resumes AMR
services only after cell update is completed.








After it is modified smaller, the more the location updates for UEs in idle state, URA
updates for UEs in the URA_PCH state, or cell updates for UEs in the CELL_FACH or
CELL_PCH state on the cell edge due to great cell signal fluctuation. It makes UU interface
process increase and UU interface quality decrease. Also, it makes DCCC related process
increase. So the DCCC fail will increase. Thats why we seen in PCHR there are a lot of SRB
Reset.
