AC and PS algorithms work on the current cell load status provided by LC Denying call admission (AC) and throttling back NRT traffic (PS) are the overload actions After scheduling PS provides LC with PrxNRT, PtxNRT & LNRT estimates After admitting RT RAB, AC provides LC with NC load increase estimate

System Noise
System noise (WCEL: PrxNoise) is the sum of all stationary noises;
thermal noise interference caused by spurious emissions of other systems, noise caused by additional equipment such as repeaters
PrxNoise can vary place to place and even time to time PrxNoise is a RNP parameter whose setting affects the capacity of cell
PrxNoise too low: overestimation of cell load and can lead to unnecessary call blocking PrxNoise too high: underestimation of cell load and can lead to overload situation

Measurement filtering
The RNC can order BTSs to report cell-based and connection-based measurements only if internal thresholds are exceeded. However, a report is sent at least once per 10 reporting periods (RNP parameters). The filtering functionality decreases the amount of measurement messages between the BTS and the RNC and thus decreases the load of RNC computer units.
BTS Measurements
WBTS can filter a measurement report (not sent to RNC) only inform RNC about important load changes reduce common NBAP signaling on IuB interface
