RF GUIDELINE

BADSPOT ANALYSIS
 Understand about Flow Processing, from New site OA
until QC Process.

 Understand about basic knowledge of LTE Radio

condition.

 Fully Understand How to analysis, and come with good

output/ recommendation for Bad spot optimization.

RSRP (Reference Signal Receive Power)

 -70 dBm to -90 dBm → Good
 -91 dBm to -110 dBm → Normal
 -110 dBm to -130 dBm → Bad

SINR (Signal to Interference+Noise Ratio)

 16 dB to 30 dB → Good
 1 dB to 15 dB → Normal
 -10 dB to 0 dB → Bad

distance to spot about 240 meter, this area should be
covering by Site JKS747_RSSILOAM as nearest site

Finding :
1. Overshooting serving cell by Site JKS295 sector 2
(antenna height 42 meter with tilt M 4 E 10) with
distance to spot about 580 meter, this area should be
covering by Site JKS524_MASJIDBKPM as nearest site
View Ant- with distance about 70 meter

Action :
2. Need lowering antenna Site JKS295_HTLCROWNE

Finding :
1. Poor SINR due to no dominant serving cell. Found site
JSX422_POLDAMETROJAYA2 as main lobe to covering
View Panoramic and antenna height badspot have blocked the building. nearest site is
JKP158_SHELTERPOLDA have distance about 150
meter to badspot

Action :
2. Need Audit Site JKP158_SHELTERPOLDA and propose
adjust antenna direction and tilt to make dominant
service on these area
