(TMA, 4RXDiv, MUD)
(if not yet used)
Apply DL feature
(TxDiv, HPA)
(if not yet used)
both UL&DL
Add a carrier
(if still available)
Maximize the re-use of existing GSM sites
Deployment strategy
Greenfield Operator
Evaluate Cell Ranges
(for all traffic phases and scenarios)
Identify suitable strategic
ranges
Apply possible deployment
scenarios
(service deployment,
advanced features upgrade)
There is no unique solution
for strategic cell range and
deployment strategy, the final
choice is an (individual)
strategic decision!
Build business cases
Select the solution that best fits
your business requirements
Conclusion
>
Analytical dimensioning techniques can be used for
predicting and avoiding potential problems due to cell
breathing (Ü upgrade strategy)
>
The network evolution can be considered already at
dimensioning stage
>
The upgrade plan is not finished at dimensioning stage:
continuous adaptation is required through
