3G RAN Key Performance Indicators
IntroductionThis document defines various Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for Nokia 3G Networks. The main focus is on formulas. However, some numerical target values for KPIs are listed.
Currently only Radio Access Network KPIs are covered.
The document includes the following chapters:
• Introduction
• Targets of the KPIs
• RAN1.5 KPIs
• RAN04 KPIs (new and modified KPIs from earlier RAN releases)
• Appendices (KPI template)
• References
NOTE! Some of the KPIs are not yet available in our official reporting tools. These are marked separately in each KPI description.
1.1 The structure of listed Key Performance Indicators
All listed items for each KPI are based on a common template. The template is found in Appendix A.
1.2 Viewpoints of the Key Performance Indicators
When creating KPIs the following issues have been considered:
• What is the common classification of each KPI
6 (62) © Nokia Oyj
DN00279399Issue 0.5 Draft
Introduction
• Does the KPI indicate the Network or User view of the calculated outcome
• What should each KPI tell the operator
• What kind of target values can there be for each KPI
1.2.1 KPI classification
The KPIs follow the commonly used classification:
• Accessibility
• Retainability
• Usage
• Mobility
• Integrity
The classification is visible in subchapters for a KPI Class for each release. Each KPI description also includes the KPI Class. Inside the class there can be certain KPIs that include an additional classification:
Usage • Resource availability based KPIs
• Resource allocation KPIs
• Load based KPIs
• Throughput based KPIs
Mobility • KPI is related to the Source and/or Target Cell
1.2.2 Network or user KPI
In order to distinguish if the KPI indicates the network or user viewpoint, the following information is added to the KPI definition:
• KPI IDs ending with an A means that the KPI is created from the user viewpoint for example RAN_KPI_0001A

Introduction
• To the right: What each KPI should indicate (KPI Outcome)
The pyramids illustrate:
• The upper pyramid: RAN functionalities and related RAN statistical measurements from the user equipment (UE) perspective.
• The lower (reversed) pyramid: RAN functionalities and related RAN statistical measurements from the network perspective.
RAN measurements are listed inside the pyramids. The KPIs are based on the counters found in the RAN measurements. The reference mark for a measurement, for example Cell Resource [1] indicates that a KPI(s) has been defined for the measurement. The KPI with the required information is described in this document, but the counter (and detailed measurement) description is found in the given reference document.
• The amounts of the statistical data related to the defined KPIs (and classes)
− When you go down the pyramid the number of data increases (there are more bricks in a pyramid in the lower layers than in the upper layers)
• The importance of each KPI (class)
− The tops of the pyramids represent the most essential data (the top layers of a pyramid becomes visible before the lower layers)
• The contradictions inside the KPI classes (the different angles to a pyramid layer)
− Usage
− The availability of resources vs. the allocations of the available resources
− The load of allocated resources vs. the gain (=throughput)
− Mobility
− The HO in the Source Cell vs. the Target Cell
1.3 Call Setup Success Rates (CSSR)
In the GSM world, the Call Setup Success Rates (CSSR) are the most followed up KPIs. It is natural to think that this is the same in the WCDMA world. But when we move to WCDMA, the call setup is not done exactly the same way as in GSM.

3G RAN Key Performance Indicators
In GSM, the UE first seizes the SDDCH channel and after that – if the user needs to establish a call – the network allocates a TCH channel for the user and the call can be established.
Therefore, in GSM we are able to calculate the CSSR based upon the moment that the network starts to allocate a TCH (or more than one) for call establishment. The reason is that we know that every time we start to allocate a TCH we know that a call setup starts.
In WCDMA, the UE asks for an RRC channel and after that the network sends the RRC configuration to the UE. After the UE has successfully established the RRC connection, further signalling can take place. Depending on the received RRC setup cause, the network expects a call establishment (=RAB) next.
Therefore, in WCDMA we are not able to calculate the CSSR reliably. The reason is that an RRC can be asked for a cause (for example, registration) that does not specify everything what will happen. Therefore, if the UE asks the RRC for the registration cause it is possible that during the time the RRC is up the user decides to start a call. When the RRC is up and running, the call request is going in the NAS (Non Access Stratum) layer which is not visible to RAN part of the 3G network.

Defined targets for WCDMA RAN Key Performance Indicators
Defined targets for WCDMA RAN Key Performance Indicators
Tables 1 and 2 (RAN 1.5 and RAN04 Key Performance Indicators) contain a summary of the current understanding of KPIs to be followed in 3G RAN. The KPI development work is still ongoing, and the finalisation of used formulas and their target values can be done only with practical knowledge of the 3G networks and measured performance data.
It should be noted that the listed targets are not Nokia guarantee values. Any change in measurements, calculation formula and/or used counters will effect to the listed goals.
This document does not cover network acceptance targets. If a KPI listed in this document is part of an acceptance agreement, the acceptance target for the KPI depends on the acceptance agreement.
The performance goals in the table below are the average goals for a cell cluster. The performance of individual cells may differ from the listed values.
The KPIs listed in the table are explained separately in corresponding subchapters.
Note 1: The listed targets are obsolete if and when the load in the network is too low. The load is considered to be too low if the average number of calls per cell is lower than 300 calls during busy hour.
Note 2: The listed targets are obsolete if and when the load in the network is higher than the planned target load of the network or if the actual traffic mix differs considerably from the planned assumptions.

This measurement is based on Cell Resource Measurement [1], where the total uplink interference (RSSI) of a cell is measured.
Note: Calculation notes
The counter values are given in standardised RSSI values (0…621). This means that the values must be converted to dBm values (-112.1 … -50.0) before the KPI can be calculated.
It is possible that the counter in the formula is not updated during the measurement period, meaning that the denominator counter is not updated. These samples should be filtered out.
When using the formula, linear scale has to be used with calculations. This means that the dBm values in the counters must be converted to Watts and, after the calculation is done, the result must be converted back to dBms.

Description: Average transmitted downlink power [dBm] shows the downlink loading of a cell over the reporting period.
This measurement is based on Cell Resource Measurement [1], where the total transmitted power of a cell is measured.
Note: Calculation notes
When using the formula, linear scale has to be used with calculations. This means that the dBm values in the counters must be converted to Watts and, after the calculation is done, the result must be converted back to dBms.
It is possible that the counter in the formula is not updated during the measurement period, meaning that the denominator counter is not updated. These samples should be filtered out.
The calculation must also include a division by 100 in order to take out the raw counter unit value multiplication by 100.

4.3.1 Noise floor of the System [dBm]
KPI NAME: Noise floor of the System [dBm]
Published: This KPI is approved.
KPI ID: RAN_KPI_0032
KPI version: 1.0a
Description: Average PrxNoise [dBm] of a cell over the reporting period.
This measurement is based on Cell Resource Measurement [1], where the PrxNoise of a cell is measured.
Note: Calculation notes
When using the formula, linear scale has to be used with calculations. This means that the dBm values in the counters must be converted to Watts and after the calculation is done, the result must be converted back to dBms.
It is possible that the counter in the formula is not updated during the measurement period, that is, the denominator counter is not updated. These samples should be filtered out.
The calculation must also include a division by - 100 in order to take out the raw counter unit value multiplication by -100.
Note 2: Pre-calculated values
The counter M1000C10 already shows the average dBm level. Therefore, the denom counter M1000C11 is not used in the formula.
KPI Formula:
dBm 100- / ' M1000C10
