Market Process for site optimization and submission:

• Site assigned and added in E2E (region SPOC/Lead)

Site • E2E and NAS status should be verified (Site Owner)
Assign
ment

• First audit should be completed on day 0.

First • Raise Issue to concern team on same day.
Audit/

• Use Required tool to optimize site KPI. (NAS/nPower/OneData/Actix/IMNOS/NetAct etc)

Accessibility

Overview Accessibility KPIs are used to measure the probability of whether services requested by a user can be accessed. There are four broad phases under which
they can be classified:
 Random access
 RRC connection establishment
 S1 signaling connection establishment
 ERAB establishment success rate (Initial and additional)

Retainability

Overview This KPI can be used to evaluate the call drop rate in a cell or cluster. Call drop ratio is one of the most important metrics to assess the performance
of the mobile network.
Listed below are types of call drops Scenarios:
 RRC Connection drop rate
 UE Context drop rate
 E-RAB drop rate

Throughput

Overview This KPI represents how E-UTRAN impacts the service quality provided to the end user. Below are the major factors that impacts throughput:
 Mobility
 Features
 RF Quality
 End Server
 Core Network/ PDN Performance
 End to End dimensioning
 eNodeB setup
