Step 1. TA/TP Calculation : Average Neighbor distance/TP or TA

Distance
D7=380m
Step 2. Overshooting Cell = % of MR >50% in TP/TA Calculated
D6=400m
D1=350m
Example:
D2=550m 1. Average Neighbor Distance = (D1+D2+D4+D5+D6+D7)/7
D5=750m D3=550m
= (350+550+550+750+750+400+380)/7= 532 Mtr
D4=750m
2. TA/TP Calculation : 532/550 = 0.96 TA Approx 1 TA
3. Overshooting Cell : >1 TA % of MR >50%
To make relax overshooting criteria calculated TA/TP

can add a buffer of 1 TA/TP
CELLS DIMENSIONING
OVERSHOOTING CELL DETECTION RESULT

Overshooting cells mostly have bigger coverage area and carry high traffic causing congestion,
controlling coverage of these cells will balance TCH utilization with neighboring cells and
congestion will be reduced.

CPICH Power Setting

Total Carrier Power (TCP) is one of limited resource depending upon RRU total power output that impact directly to cell
capacity and performance. Although it’s the same RRU power, it may different in the capacity because of UE distribution in a
cell. To overview the power setting in a cell, we can check parameter setting of total power and CPICH power.

In a WCDMA system, every bit rate mainly distinguished by code, CE and power consume. Higher bit rate need more code, CE and power.
Thus with reduce the bit rate it will reduce radio resources capacity. From beside table shown bit rate both UL/DL with CE and code
