1.9 Conclusion
The 3G network coverage is acceptable but the quality need to be improve by controlling the
downlink interference through implemention of the above recommendations. Another test will be
perform after modification to confirm the result.

HIGH RTWP ANALYSIS

The above trends for Agitel sector 3 shows that there is a background noise not perculiar to a frequency but to the
sector itself which means we need to check for a generic source of intefernce.
CONCLUSION: I suggest we have to neighbor audit for all the cells on the network one after the other to
make sure there is no any missing neighbor or one way neighbor because at every missing neighbor it is seen
as interference. At every interference detected by 3G network the active set will try to increase power in other
to overcome this interference.
