The diffrence between RAN tuning and RAN optimization
-
Tuning
*Establish network performance mainly using drive tests:
- To ensure it is possible to drive in the network without dropping calls
- to ensure it is possible to set up calls in the coverage area
*Analyze and describe underlying problems related to:
-Design
-UEs
-systems
Optimization
*identify and improve radio network problems using statistics,
recordings and events
*Establish subscriber behavior and perception
*Ensure that traffic can be handed
Default parameter audit:
One of the most important tasks for an efficient control of a cellular network is to
ensure that all of its configuration parameters are properly adjusted.
Any one parameter,incorrectly configured can cause real damage to the
performance, and therefore to customer satisfaction. And the time it takes to find
such a problem is unnecessary since the problem could be easily and quickly
found by an audit.

Initial Tuning
-
The Initial Tuning is done to make sure the radio network works well
after the network has been built.
The service verifies that the radio network design and the
corresponding network data have been implemented correctly
correctly, that the implemented design is consistent with the proposed
design. C

Antenna Optimization
Antenna Optimization
An Antenna is typically characterized by frequency band,gain, and
vertical and horizontal radiation pattern, but it has also multiple of
other electrical and mechanical characteristics.
Important terms for Antenna Optimization:
*Beamwidth (Horizontal& vertical)
*Tilting
NB:three-dimensional radiation pattern of a directional antenna
Antenna Tilting
Antenna Downtilt
Downtilting means directing the base station antenna of some angle,
towards ground, aiming at focusing the main beam of the antenna to
cover the required area in a desired way.
