Level 3
Level 1 is the best and Level 4 is the worst classification; the levels are colored green, yellow, orange, and red respectively in tables in this report. These classifications are used throughout the
report to categorize the accessibility, coverage, mobility, and retainability measurements. In cases where no RxLev or RxQual measurements were available during a call event, the No Data
classification is used. For this particular section, no RxQual measurements are available, so classification is based on RxLev only.
Conditions
RxLev >= -70 dBm AND RxQual <= 2
Table 2 shows the percentage distribution of the cell measurements across RxLev value ranges, as well as across coverage classes.
