(1) Introduction: -

This document describes the measurement method to be adopted for reporting of Number of Calls,
Minutes of Usage, PoI Congestion, A-Interface Erlangs and A-bis Interface Erlangs. The counters
to be used for all above-mentioned measurements are described in detail for all three GSM vendor
equipments Nokia, Ericsson and Siemens. Circles teams are now onwards required to report
these KPIs as per the new recommended methodology.

(2) Standardization Number of Calls

Ericsson: -

MSC TRD method will be used. Counter to be used is as follows: -

Counter Counter Description
NANSW Number of B answers

Formula to be used: -

Number of calls = NANSW

Final figure for individual MSC will be sum of following two types of TRDs (a) and (b) mentioned
below and the data will be for the whole day.

(a) All calls coming from BSC to all destinations
(b) All calls coming from PSTN/Other operators PoIs

Nokia: -

Traffic Category Measurements and Destination Wise measurements are to be used. Counters to be
used are as follows: -

Counter Counter Description
TraffIc Category.Succ_calls_tc wIth object
DrIgInatIon DutgoIng
ThIs Is the measurement InItIated on trunk
group basIs as orIgInatIng call.
The table assocIated to thIs measurement Is
P_0X_TC, whIle the column name TraffIc
category.
TraffIc Category.Succ_calls_tc wIth object
TermInatIng ncomIng
The measurement assocIated wIth TraffIc
category E pegged when a termInatIng
IncomIng call allocated at trunk cIrcuIts.
TraffIc Category.Succ_calls_tc wIth object
nternal
The nternal counter pegged when an
Internal call Is swItch In |SC.ThIs also
Incorporated In TraffIc_Category Column of
P_0X_TC table.
Ans_calls Answered calls from 0estInatIon wIse
measurements In CT0 Table

Formula to be used: -

Number of calls = (TraffIc Category.Succ_calls_tc wIth object DrIgInatIon DutgoIng) +
(TraffIc Category.Succ_calls_tc wIth object TermInatIng ncomIng) +
(TraffIc Category.Succ_calls_tc wIth object nternal) -
(nter |SC |obIle to |obIle Calls wIthIn our cIrcle IncomIng to thIs |SC)


nter |SC |obIleto|obIle Calls wIth our cIrcle IncomIng to thIs |SC =
(ans_calls: Calls IncomIng to |SC from all nter |SC trunk Croups for the destInatIon
WhIch Is the |SFN serIes of thIs |SC, from the destInatIon wIse measurement)
(ans_calls: Calls IncomIng to all other |SCs on all theIr Pos where the destInatIon Is
|SFN
SerIes of thIs |SC, from the destInatIon wIse measurement)

Data will be for the whole day.




Siemens: -

MSC Trunk Group Traffic Report to be used for the calculation. Number of calls will be the total
number of calls for all the trunk groups. Counters to be used are as follows: -

Counter Counter Description
CCS_wIth_ Answer:
It indicates how often the trunk group was
successfully seized by incoming calls that were
answered at the called terminal. It is triggered
each time call is released.
CCS_wIth_ Answer: D
It indicates how often the trunk group was
successfully seized by outgoing calls that were
answered at the mobile station. It is triggered
each time call is released.

Formula to be used: -

Number of calls = (CCS_wIth_ Answer: )_8SC_TCFP +
(CCS_wIth_ Answer: D)_8SC_TCFP -
(CCS_wIth_ Answer: D or )_(|CLDDP ncomIng or DutgoIng, )

Data will be for the whole day.


(3) Standardization Minutes of Usage

Ericsson: -

MSC TRD method will be used. Counter to be used are as follows: -
KPI standardization Ver 1.1

Corporate Network Services
Page 5 / 7
Idea Cellular Ltd., Pune



Counter Counter Description
NANSW Number of B answers
ACTIME Average Conversation Time

Formula to be used: -

Minutes of Usage = NANSW X ACTIME / 60

So the figure will be derived from average conversation time.


Nokia: -

Figure will be derived from average conversation time from Cell Measurement in MSC. Counter to
be used are as follows: -

Counter Counter Description
Cell.Ave_out_con The average outgoIng call conversatIon tIme
In seconds.
TraffIc Category.Succ_calls_tc:DrIg outgoIng ThIs Is the measurement InItIated on trunk
group basIs as orIgInatIng call.
The table assocIated to thIs measurement Is
P_0X_TC, whIle the column name TraffIc
category.
Cell.Ave_Inc_con The average IncomIng call conversatIon tIme
In seconds.
TraffIc Category.Succ_calls_tc: Term IncomIng The measurement assocIated wIth TraffIc
category E pegged when a termInatIng
IncomIng call allocated at trunk cIrcuIts.
Cell.Ave_Int_con The average Internal call conversatIon tIme
In seconds
TraffIc Category.Succ_calls_tc:nternal The nternal counter pegged when an
Internal call Is swItch In |SC.ThIs also
Incorporated In TraffIc_Category Column of
P_0X_TC table.

Total MOU = Originating MoU + Terminating MOU + Internal MoU

DutgoIng |DU = (Cell.Ave_out_con x TraffIc Category.Succ_calls_tc:DrIg outgoIng)/60

ncomIng |DU = (Cell.Ave_Inc_con x TraffIc Category.Succ_calls_tc: Term IncomIng)/60

nternal |DU = (Cell.Ave_Int_con x TraffIc Category.Succ_calls_tc:nternal x 2)/60

Siemens: -

MSC Trunk Group Traffic Report on all BSS Trunk Groups to be used for the calculation.

Counter to be used are as follows: -

KPI standardization Ver 1.1

Corporate Network Services
Page 6 / 7
Idea Cellular Ltd., Pune


Counter Counter Description
TCS_wIth_ Answer:
It indicates the volume of incoming
traffic for the trunk group that has been
answered at the mobile station.
TCS_wIth_ Answer: D
It indicates the volume of outgoing traffic
for the trunk group that has been
answered at the called terminal.

Formula to be used: -

MoU = (TCS_wIth_ Answer: + TCS_wIth_ Answer: D)/60

Data will be for the whole day.


(4) Standardization PoI Congestion

Ericsson: -

Counter to be used are as follows: -

Counter Counter Description
NUB Number of outgoing attempts
unsuccessful due to congestion
NBIDS Number of Total Outgoing Call attempts

Formula to be used: -

PoI Congestion Percentage = (NUB/NBIDS) * 100

Figure has to be for the Peak hour and 24 hrs.

Nokia: -

Counter to be used are as follows: -

Counter Counter Description
p_msc_cg.call_congestion_out_circ Number of outgoing attempts
unsuccessful due to congestion
p_msc_cg.nbr_calls_out_cIrc
Number of Total Outgoing Call attempts

Formula to be used: -

PoI Congestion Percentage =
(p_msc_cg.call_congestion_out_circ/p_msc_cg.nbr_calls_out_cIrc) * 100

Figure has to be for the Peak Hour and 24hrs.

Siemens: -

Counter to be used are as follows: -

Counter Counter Description
CCU LOST CALLS Number of outgoing attempts
unsuccessful due to congestion
CCD
Number of outgoing attempts successful
where channel could be siezed

Formula to be used: -

PoI Congestion Percentage = (CCU Lost Call/(CCU Lost Call+CCO))*100

Figure has to be for the Peak Hour and 24 hrs.


(5) Standardization A-Interface Traffic

All circles to report A-Interface traffic of each BSC of BSC peak hour.

Designed A-Interface traffic is to be calculated using Erlang B Table as No of Devices between
MSC and BSC at 0.5% GoS.


(6) Standardization A-bis Interface Traffic

All circles to report A-bis Interface traffic of each BSC of BSC peak hour.

Designed Abis-Interface traffic is to be calculated using Erlang B Table as sum of Designed Erlang
of all BTS at 2% GoS in the BSC.
