3 What is network optimization? The main objectives of RAN optimization are to enable a better availability of: network services (coverage criteria) and to provide a pre-defined level of service quality and performance (Quality of Service criteria) EXFO Inc. All rights reserved.. 3

4 Optimization based on coverage criteria Coverage for different data rate services and maximum loading based on traffic forecasts and margins set for load variation. Pilot channel coverage Soft handover areas and probabilities Mobility within and between the networks EXFO Inc. All rights reserved.. 4

5 Optimization based on performance and capacity criteria Total data throughput in a cell End-user data throughput (application throughput) Delays Call setup success rates for different services Call drop rates Handover performance EXFO Inc. All rights reserved.. 5
