1 Introduction to KPI
This describes the KPI, which is used to monitor the network performance and detect network
problems.
2 CS Accessibility KPIs
This describes the CS accessibility KPIs that mainly indicate the call success rate when a MS
accesses the network. Low accessibility KPIs directly lead to low user satisfaction.
3 CS Retainability KPIs
This describes the CS Retainability KPIs that indicate the ratio of moving MSs to all MSs, the
moving frequency, and the success rate of handovers on the move. In addition, these KPIs
indicate the capability of providing continuous services. A low handover success rate may lead
to a high call drop rate. A low success rate leads to low user satisfaction.
4 CS Resource Utilization KPIs
This describes the CS Resource Utilization KPIs that are used to monitor the load of hot cells
and the network. These KPIs can serve as references for capacity expansion. The traffic volume
KPIs help to obtain the ratio of busy-hour traffic to idle-hour traffic, to evaluate the utilization
of system resources, and to adjust charges. The equipment availability KPIs help to know the
running status of equipment, such as the running status of channels. If these KPIs are low,
equipment and transmission may be faulty.
5 PS Throughput KPIs
This describes the PS Throughput KPIs that are used to monitor the load of hot cells and the
network and to obtain service models. These KPIs can serve as references for capacity expansion.The PS Throughput KPIs help to obtain the busy-hour PS traffic and the idle-hour PS traffic, to
evaluate the utilization of system resources, and to facilitate service assessment of carriers.
6 PS Transmission KPIs
This describes the PS Transmission KPIs that indicate the quality of radio transmission links in
a cell. If the RLC data block retransmission rate in a cell is high, the quality of the radio
transmission links in the cell is poor. Therefore, take corresponding measures, such as RF
optimization.
7 PS Accessibility KPIs
This describes the PS Accessibility KPIs that indicate whether MSs can easily access cells. Poor PS Accessibility KPIs directly affect user satisfaction.
8 PS Resource Utilization KPIs
This describes the PS Resource Utilization KPIs that indicate the utilization of the network
resource and the busy states of services. Thus, these KPIs can be used to guide network
expansion.
9 PS Retainability KPIs
This describes the PS Retainability KPIs that mainly involve the uplink and downlink TBF call
drop rates. These KPIs indicate the capability of providing continuous services by the network
and are directly related to user satisfaction. Thus, an increase in call drop rate directly leads toa decrease in user satisfaction.

10 PS End-to-End Delay KPIs
This describes the PS End-to-End Delay KPIs that indicate the service response speed of the
network. Long delay affects user satisfaction.
11 PS End-to-End Quality KPIs
This describes the PS end-to-end quality KPIs. They involve the performance factors associated
with the terminals, the radio access network, and the core network. Now, the main performance
problem is concerned with the radio access network. Therefore, these KPIs indicate the end-to-
end service data link bearing capability of the GPRS network, which are directly related to user
satisfaction.

3 CS Retainability KPIs
About This Chapter
This describes the CS Retainability KPIs that indicate the ratio of moving MSs to all MSs, the
moving frequency, and the success rate of handovers on the move. In addition, these KPIs
indicate the capability of providing continuous services. A low handover success rate may lead
to a high call drop rate. A low success rate leads to low user satisfaction.

4 CS Resource Utilization KPIs
About This Chapter
This describes the CS Resource Utilization KPIs that are used to monitor the load of hot cells
and the network. These KPIs can serve as references for capacity expansion. The traffic volume
KPIs help to obtain the ratio of busy-hour traffic to idle-hour traffic, to evaluate the utilization
of system resources, and to adjust charges. The equipment availability KPIs help to know the
running status of equipment, such as the running status of channels. If these KPIs are low,
equipment and transmission may be faulty.

9 PS Retainability KPIs
About This Chapter
This describes the PS Retainability KPIs that mainly involve the uplink and downlink TBF call
drop rates. These KPIs indicate the capability of providing continuous services by the network
and are directly related to user satisfaction. Thus, an increase in call drop rate directly leads to
a decrease in user satisfaction.

10.1 PING Delay
Table 10-1 PING Delay
Counter PING Delay
Description The PING delay is the difference between the time when the MS sends
an ICMP packet of the Return Request type and the time when the
receiving end responds with an ICMP packet of the Return
Acknowledgment type. Two types of PING delay are available: initial
PING delay and consecutive PING delay.
l Initial PING delay
If the interval between two consecutive PING operations is longer
than 9000 ms, the MS enters the Packet Idle Mode. If the PING
operation is re-initiated, the TBF established on the CCCH is used.Therefore, the initial PING delay is longer.
l Consecutive PING delay
If the interval between two consecutive PING operations is shorter
than 500 ms, the PCU uses the uplink delay release or downlink delay
release policy. This avoids the TBF establishment for the following
PING operations or the TBF re-establishment on the PACCH. This
PING delay is relatively shorter.

Table 11-1 GRPS Data Transmission Rate
Counter GRPS Data Transmission Rate
Description This measurement provides the amount of data transmitted every second
by the GPRS system. The GPRS throughput focuses mainly on the
throughput at the RLC/MAC layer and the throughput at the application
layer. The test of the throughput at the RLC/MAC layer is difficult.
Therefore, the throughput we discuss generally refers to the throughput
at the application layer. The throughput at the RLC/MAC layer is
generally higher than that at the application layer.
