Abstract
This document is a contribution to the RAN KPIs on RNC performance statistics. The
document proposes a list of UMTS network level KPIs that should be measured and used to
evaluate radio network performance from coverage, accessibility, retainability, mobility, quality
and traffic.
List of abbreviations:
PM Performance Management
VP Video Phone
CE Channel Element
UL Uplink
DL Downlink
1 Introduction
The purpose of this document is to specify the RAN KPI definition as well as counters
used to calculate the KPI.
The original KPI definition comes from the experiences of commercial network
management and radio network optimization. The KPI definition shall be updated
according to the requirement from customers.
This sub clause specifies the KPI work scope. If the scope is ‘RNC’, indicating
that the KPI value shows the performance on the RAN and the associated
counters can be obtained from RNC statistic directly. If the scope is ‘Cell’,
indicating that the KPI value only shows the performance in a cell and the
associated counters can be obtained from cell statistic.
z Formula
This sub clause contains a formula used to calculate the KPI. Generally the
formula consists of several counters which are explained in other sub clauses.
z Associated Counters
This sub clause contains counters used in the formula. It also contains the
description of the counters. Annex A provides the counter list.
z Class
This property is labeled on the KPI name. Class A means that the KPI is a basic
one and must be monitored on the M2000. Class B means that the KPI is an
additional one and is an optional KPI monitored on the M2000. It is useful for
optimization.
3 KPI Classification

should be well defined in the PM system of the RNC.

5 Accessibility KPIs
Accessibility is the ability of a user to obtain the requested service from the system.
RRC connection and RAB setup are the main procedures of accessibility. These
items can be calculated per cell and per RNC, and the RNC level KPI is calculated by
aggregating all the cell counters that belong to the RNC.
5.1.1 Description
This KPI can be used to evaluate the successful responses to the paging from the
Core Network (CN) in one RNC. However, the lower paging success ratio does not
always mean the lower paging response because paging may be occurred due to the
unnecessary paging messages from the CN. Therefore, the terminal radio access
success ratio and the CN’s paging strategy should be analyzed for further
confirmation.

5.2.1 Description
A complete call setup procedure contains the RRC connection, RAB setup, and Direct
Transfer. Generally only the RRC connection and the RAB setup can be observed
from RAN and it is usually assumed that no error occurs when RAN handles the
direct transfer messages. That is, the authentication procedure is considered to be
successfully performed.
This KPI can be used to evaluate the radio access success ratio in one RNC and the
access failures caused by the SCCP congestion are not considered in this call setup
procedure.
