summaryUse planet v5.3• Aim
• Convert NSN Hangzhou LTE TDD trial project• Optimize site based on some KPI example
• Input• 2D maps (clutter, height, clutter height)• 3D maps (building polygon with AGL)• NSN project data (site long/lat, PCI, freq, antenna, NL)• Default site config (power, loading)
• 3D Propagation model• UM model at 2.6GHz with 2D + 3D maps• With default building penetration loss
• Optimization setting• Range and cost of optimization parameter• KPI range and weight• Define AOI, UE, environment
• ACP (automatic cell planning) output • Optimize site config per sector level (e.g., height, azimuth power, type, m-tilt, e-tilt)• Compare network analysis before/after optimization
3
Input map (1) – raster maps
• 5m, 20m resolution maps• Height, clutter, clutter height • converted from BIN file format to vertical mapinfomapper format (grc and grd + TAB)• all maps have same projection (Gauss-Kruger 117)
4
Input map (2) – vectors
• boundary, airport, street, subway, Mstreet, Oroad, expressway, railways etc.• converted from ASCII file format to vertical mapinfo mapper format (MAP, ID, DAT + TAB)• all maps have same projection (Gauss-Kruger 117)
5
Input map (3) – 3D building map
• converted from ASCII file format to vertical mapinfo mapper format (MAP, ID, DAT + TAB) with mapped column for polygon_ID, AGL (i.e., float type)• all maps have same projection (Gauss-Kruger 117)
6
Input data (1) – site config
Convert NSN excel file into planet excel worksheet (site, antenna, sectors, sector_antennas etc)
7
Input data (2) – neighbor list
Convert NSN neighbor list excel file into planet format excel
8
Input antenna (1) – comba files
Convert comba antenna pattern and group mult-band, multi-etilt pattern into 1 planet antenna file format (.paf)• ODS-090R15NV06(F)• ODS-090R15ND06(F)
• max etilt = 6• used freq range = 2.6GHz• x-polar with 4 antenna column (i.e., 8 port)
9
Input antenna (2) – conversion
• based on given etilt=0 and 6, interpolate etilt pattern in between (1..5]• assume +/-45 pattern is same for each etilt/band combination• use 65 deg broadcast azimuth BW (for now)
10
Converted planet project
• 2 group of sites (hangzhou and xiasha)• total 48 sites, 141 sectors• assume only 1x 5MHz 2.6GHz carrier per each sector
11
Spectrum and frame config – (1)• EARFCN=37750+300=38050 or 2600MHz for LTE TDD• BW = 5MHz
• Use default set of MCS bearer• 2 methods in planet (single value CINR or use spectrum
efficiency curve), use later method in this case study
12
Spectrum and frame config – (2)
Assume no ICIC Assume • frame config has 12 DL slots
“DSUDD_DSUDD”• S-subframe config “5”
DL overhead config (PDCCH)UL overhead config (DRS, SRS, PUCCH)
% DL RE used for overhead (CP + PDCCH/PCFICH/PCHICH + PBCH + RS + PSS + SSS) for different # tx antenna
13
Spectrum and frame config (3)For slow fading, assume spatial correlation between best serving sector and interfering sector is considered in CINR estimation
CINR Standard DeviationScenario Correlated slow fading
Noise limited areas Standard deviation of signal strength
Interference fully correlated with server 0 dB
Areas between co-site sectors 0 dB
Interference not correlated with server Based on correlation between signals
14
Default site configLoading % = 50 (DL), UL (20)UL noise rise = 1.5dB
PA power = 43dB (before any splitter)No power boost for RS, PSS/SSS
15
3D propagation model – (1)
• 3D model known as universal model (UM) from France Telecom – orange lab
• Freq = 2600MHz• Rx height = 1.5m (can change for different
building level for indoor coverage)
16
3D propagation model – (2)5m, 20m, height
2D raster map
5m, 20m, Clutter height
5m, 20m, clutter map with Clutter type and approx clutter height [for pixel where clutter height map is not available]

3D propagation model – (3)
3D building map
18
3D propagation model – (4)
UM specific generated data
Facet represents reflection from far away large obstacles
Morphologies represent mapping of clutter class to UM clutter class for customized optimization
19
3D propagation model – (5)
Graph represents horizontal guided propagation direction to account for horizontal diffraction either on side OR top of building
20
3D propagation model – (6)
<3km, UM prediction resolution = 5m (geodata map)>3km, UM prediction resolution = 5x2m=10m
Used model defined building penetration loss (outside/inside, inside/inside) , which depends on tx/rx path length, angle, freq
21
3D prediction – RSSI example
3D prediction shows • attenuated indoor coverage due to penetration• scattering by building• Waveguide effect along narrow street
Hangzhou site example xiasha site example
22
Optimization setting – range
Optimization range is defined independently per sector
Relative means with respect to current NSN settingAzimuth = relative [-30, +30] degM downtilt = relative [-5, +5] degPower = relative [-5, +5] dBAntenna height = fixed at NSN setting
Optimize antenna pattern by picking either from antenna group “NSN_comba” which contains 2 antenna, ODS-090R15NV06(F) , ODS-090R15ND06(F)
Optimize e-tilt = absolute range [0..6] deg
23
Pre-optimization (1) – define AOI
• AOI (area of interest) is defined for site group “hangzhou”.• Optimization in planet will be restricted to site group “hangzhou” within this AOI.
24
Pre-optimization (2) – define UE
Define UE equipment• no monte carlo simulation is performed in this case study• set usual UL parameter
(e.g., 0dBi antenna, all bearer suported in UL, 24dBm)
25
Pre-optimization (3) – define environment
• each pixel is split into up to 4 environment• each environment has its related parameter such as speed and fast fading margin• some clutter has certain clutter disabled
(e.g., no indoor/deep indoor for water related clutter)
26
Pre-optimization (4) – analysis
• run network analysis using NSN default site config (i.e., before ACP)• set RSRP threshold = -105dBm• use FULL UL power control (i.e., UL txpower is reduced until CINR for required MCS bearer is reached)• UE speed = 3km/hr • use linear PoC vs loading % curve to compute co-channel interference• target cell edge coverage prob = 85% for outdoor environment
27
Optimization (1) – define profile
set profile as combination of different optimization goals, e.g., • (weight=2) RSRP coverage with balanced footprint • (weight=1) spectrum efficiency
Combination of optimization KPI that can be selected
28
Optimization (2) – define scenario
Define optimization scenario• choose optimization ONLY• choose optimized sector = considered sector
29
Optimization (3) – run scenario
Set optimization to area = AOI, environment = indoor (wt=1) and outdoor (wt=2)
Sector loading used in optimization• if optimization KPI is dependent on loading, it requires traffic map from AOI area• static load (constant) OR dynamic load (fluctuate during ACP process)

Do 2 ACP scenario
• for both indoor environment (weight=1), outdoor environment (weight=2)
• first scenario with load independent KPI, e.g., max area % for RSRP > -105dBm, and compare with NSN RSRP layer
• second scenario with a default traffic map and max area % for both RSRP > -105dBm and spectrum efficiency and compare both RSRP and DL max data rate with NSN case
