Single Site Verification Preparation
 Before the single site verification, we should only ensure the

following conditions have been met.
 Alarm Check
 Cell Status Check
 Parameter Check
8
 Alarm Check
 The product support engineer will be responsible for checking
and resolving all the alarms. It is important for the optimization
engineer prior to any field test to check with product support
engineer regarding any alarms especially intermittent alarms.
9
 Cell Status Check

 The product support engineer will be responsible for checking
and resolving all the cell state problems. It is important for the
network optimization engineer prior to any field test to confirm
with product support engineer regarding cell state.
10
 Parameter Check
 The optimization engineer need to ensure the radio part
parameters configuration list has been achieved. In the list the
radio part parameters includes: the scrambling code, power
setting, neighbor cell list, handover parameter etc.

verified cell is right or not. If it’s wrong, maybe the parameter
setting or the Tx antenna installation have some mistake.
 Method: Setup the Agilent E6474A software, observe cell
frequency and scrambling code from UMTS CPICH View
window. Check the frequency and scrambling code for the
verified cell is as same as planning.
 Notes: N/A
16
17
 Test Process 4
 Items: CPICH RSCP and CPICH Ec/Io
 Purpose: Check the CPICH RSCP and CPICH Ec/Io for
the verified cell is normal or not. If it’s abnormal, maybe
the Tx antenna installation or the downlink interference
have some problems.
 Method: In the Agilent E6474A software, observe CPICH
RSCP and CPICH Ec/Io from UMTS Status View window.
Check if CPICH RSCP is higher than -85dBm and CPICH
Ec/Io is higher than -8dB.

 Notes:
 The mobile shall be near the site
 The CPICH RSCP and Ec/Io can be seen from
scanner or Qualcomm mobile. Use the Qualcomm
mobile to check the CPICH RSCP and CPICH Ec/Io.
 When we use the Qualcomm mobile to check the
CPICH RSCP and CPICH Ec/Io, the Io and Ec/Io shall
be obtained, the CPICH RSCP shall be obtained
through calculation: Ec = Ec/Io + Io

31
 Troubleshooting:
 The problem recording list should be filled in and the product
support engineer should be encouraged to solve the problems.
 Track the problems until they are solved.
32
 Notice items 1: Test Point Choice

 We shall choose the test point where the CPICH RSCP of target
sector is high enough and that of other sector is poor.
 The test points should be chosen near the site and ideally with
line-of-sight to the site.
 The test points should not be chosen under the site as the signal
of other sectors of same site is strong too.
33
 Notice items 2: Test Route Choice

 The driving test route should connect the test points of the
sectors. It is required that signals not be shadowed by buildings
along the test route to avoid turning the test into a coverage test.
34
 Notice items 3: Antenna Swapping Test Purpose

 If the receive antenna crossed, the uplink diversity receive gain
is loss, and the uplink interfere is doubled. It will affect the uplink
capability.

Problem Example for Site Verification
 In the site verification, following problems have been found

 Scrambling Code Setting is wrong: The scrambling code from
scanner and mobile is different from the planning
 After feeder swapped, the CPICH RSCP is 20dB lower than
before.
37
Answers
 Scrambling Code Setting is wrong

 The Scrambling Code may be wrong in RNC, check the
datasheet in RNC.
 If the Scrambling Code from scanner is the same as that of
another sector in same site planned, maybe the TX/RX feeder is
crossed to the another sector.
38
Answers
 After feeder swapped, the CPICH RSCP is 20dB lower than

before:
 The RX feeder is crossed to the antenna of another sector. In
this case, the CPICH RSCP will be high in the coverage area of
the other antenna. Check the connection between the feeder
and the antenna.
