RADIO NETWORK SERVICES

Radio  Network Planning Services Includes radio network and transmission  planning such as dimensioning, coverage prediction, nominal and detailed  planning with different radio network planning tool, site selection and  survey, antenna design, parameter setting, frequency planning, initial  tuning and documentation.

PTS network planning  services are classified in two main categories;

Radio Network Planning

  » Network Dimensioning
  » Propagation Modeling
  » Nominal Cell and  Transmission Planning
  » RF and Transmission Survey
  » Initial Tuning

Radio Network Re-Design

Methodology of PTS Re-design of Radio network services includes:

» New Frequency / Code  Planning
  » Interference Reduction  Analysis
  » Cell Capacity-Traffic Load  balancing
  » Cell -Site Re Configuration change
  » Site Removal / Re-Location  Planning

IN-BUILDING PLANNING AND IMPLEMENTATION 

Our  in-building solutions  will enable mobile operators and enterprises to  improve voice and data coverage  in high-traffic areas such as corporate  buildings, shopping malls, multi-tenant  buildings, manufacturing  facilities and airports. Our In-Building service  includes RF (radio  frequency) coverage assessment, design and optimization,  program  management, pre & post deployment services which include   maintenance, on-site technical support and network monitoring. Our  services  organization helps mobile operators design & optimizes  in-building networks  with optimal coverage and capacity. PTS has a team  of experts that can help  service providers and enterprises select an  In-building solution with the right  capacity and RF optimization  requirements to help ensure In-Building and macro  network  interoperability.

  » Planning for RF distribution  network
  » Cable route survey & Walk  test
  » Link Budget  
  » Post Installation walk test
  » Recommendation on BSS parameters

Radio Network Optimization Services

IWS  RF Optimization Services  known to deliver for its quality, whether a  small scale project or an  End-to-End solution, our Network Optimization  Service guarantees a  thorough optimization of the network and an  improvement of network performance  within the customer defined  constraints. We determine areas for improvement and  specify the  required input data - measurements, network configuration data and   other data about the technology used in the network, and then we analyze  the  data and determine the changes needed to optimize the network  performance.

PTS optimization services  includes a split of the radio network optimization process in five sub process

» Radio Network Audit
  » Radio Network Verification
  » Radio network Benchmarking
  » Radio Network Field Optimization (Drive Testing)
  » Radio Network KPI Optimization0

Radio Network Audit

PTS  provides network audit  services to its clients, which are telecom  service providers or telecom vendors  to have a complete knowledge about  the implemented systems in the field. This  could be site audit, where  checks could be made on the antenna height, antenna  type, azimuths,  tilt, transmit frequency etc. which broadly fall under the  hardware  network audit. Under the software / Radio quality network Audit, we   take tasks like drive test to identify black spots in coverage, quality.   Frequency plan analysis where we check the carrier to interference  ratio and  the critical areas/regions with high interference resulting  in bad voice  quality, Cell/BSC/RNC parameter analysis where we check  in-correct parameters  values if affects any degradation of KPIs

Radio Network Verification

  The deliverables of Radio  Network Verification services include:

» Radio network parameters consistency check  report
    » Verification report for  each 2G/3G radio site
    » Service verification  report
    » Weekly problem tracking  report

Radio Network Benchmarking

  The methodology of radio  network benchmarking services includes:

» Definition benchmarking  periodicity
    » Definition of reference  areas for benchmarking by region
  » Definition of reference  drive test condition
  » Drive test data collection  for all technologies (2G/3G/HSPA+)
  » Drive test data processing  and comparative analysis of all operators and with data for the previous  benchmark

Radio Network Field Optimization

  The deliverables of Radio  Network Verification services include:

 » Cluster/Route drive test  report and recommendation
   » Radio network modification  report for each level of modification implementation
  » Weekly customer complain  analysis report

Radio Network KPI Optimization

  PTS offers high level  analysis of radio network parameters and  structures to provide better KPI. KPI  improvement is provided to  Customers in a short period with IWS KPI  Optimization methodology for  each BSC / Cluster
  The methodology of radio  network KPI optimization services includes:

» BSC/Cluster based analysis  of available raw network counter data
    » Cell/BSC based parameters  or Cell configuration analysis and changes
    » Radio Network capacity  utilization analysis and re-dimensioning
    » Weekly/monthly network KPI  trend report (Drop Rate, CSSR, HO SR, IRAT-SR, EDGE/HSDPA throughput)
    » Ongoing monitoring of  network performance
    » Periodically Radio Network  Field Optimization
