Slide title 40 pt Slide subtitle 24 pt Text 24 pt Bullets level 2-5 20 pt Ericsson Confidential2006-05-024 How ACP Algorithm Works  Based on Powell’s Algorithm –Evaluate one parameter after another –Start from red combination, test combinations and change configuration until best (green) combination reached –+ Heuristics: eg. Cells & parameters in order of relevance Parameter2 (eg azimuth) Parameter1 (eg tilt)

Slide title 40 pt Slide subtitle 24 pt Text 24 pt Bullets level 2-5 20 pt Ericsson Confidential2006-05-025 What are the advantages of ACP? Network improvement Improves radio environment with secured coverage and maximized network quality and capacity. Efficiency Gains Speed – runs faster than manual process. Depends on a few factors: PC performance, Size of area to optimise, Resolution of data and number of changes Minimal user input – lower cost of service, focus on high margin work Accurate Modelling Predictions are more realistic than planning tool because based on real drivedata.

Slide title 40 pt Slide subtitle 24 pt Text 24 pt Bullets level 2-5 20 pt Ericsson Confidential2006-05-026 What are the disadvantages of ACP? Garbage in, Garbage out Poor propagation model will be a problem in design phase Key: Input data needs to be accurate and complete Drive data should be thorough for higher accuracy Need to control changes Eg don’t uptilt boomer sites Need to review changes some can be aggressive

Slide title 40 pt Slide subtitle 24 pt Text 24 pt Bullets level 2-5 20 pt Ericsson Confidential2006-05-0216 Path Loss Tuning Concept Pathloss tuning corrects the predicted pathloss maps directly according to the pilot RSCP measurements from drive tests. Two types of tuning Local: those pixels with drive test data Global: those pixels without drive test data Ensure the Scrambling Codes and Cell_IDs in the planning tool and ACP match the real network
