    Hi Guys
    In one cell of site has huge SDCCH Drop rate (40-50%) and low CSSR (70-80%).
    This site is Nokia. Also no any alarm on this site due to NetAct software. No congestion.
    But what can be reasons for this problem? Could you help me?

    Thanks in advance.

    It mighy be the issue with the radio having SDCCH TS try to shift your SDCCH to other Radios form there current radio defination.

    Hi User_2010
    In Nokia they have a very stupid formula for SDCCH drop.
    Check if in your formulas the counter SDCCH_Abis_fail_call is included. In most of the cases it counts so called phantom RACH.

    Hi Vanderley
    The formula is:

    SDCCH Drop Ratio =
    sum(sdcch_radio_fail+sdcch_rf_old_ho+sdcch_user_act+sdcch_bcsu_reset+ sdcch_netw_act+sdcch_abis_fail_call+sdcch_abis_fail_old+sdcch_bts_fail+ sdcch_lapd_fail+sdcch_a_if_fail_call+sdcch_a_if_fail_old) / sum(sdcch_assign+sdcch_ho_seiz)

    So if SDCCH_Abis_Fail included, what does it mean in this case?
    What can be the reason of the problem?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,

    For me this is not a drop.
    This counter works when you receive on rach request with valid cause, you assign a SDCCH, no MS appear on channel in certain time (i don’t remember the exact timer value), and the channel is released with this cause. This counter is on ABIS that’s why they called it Abis fail.
    No one could tell if this is really a MS. Also why drop if you never get on the channel.
    Look at Nokia explanation
    Phantoms affect SDCCH_abis_fail_*
    SDCCH drop ratio counts the ratio of all SDCCH failures to SDCCH seizures.
    Normally most of the seizures are caused because of phantoms which are counted as SDCCH_abis_fail_call and SDCCH_abis_fail_old. In practice, the latter case does not practically occur because SDCCH handovers are usually not
    used and particularly because phantoms do not perform handover.
    The percentage of SDCCH_abis_fail_call used to be very high in a low traffic
    network (even tens of per cent) whereas in a high traffic network the percentage settled down to around 18-20 per cent. In BTS B9, BTS RACH detection was improved, and figures well under 10 per cent are now typical.

    Hi Vanderley, I also have the same symptoms on my network like the ones explained by User_2010, but I checked the formula and it doesn’t contain SDCCH_Abis_fail_call in it. Here is the formula used.

    100*sum(sdcch_radio_fail+sdcch_rf_old_ho+sdcch_user_act+sdcch_netw_act+sdcch_bcsu_reset+sdcch_bts_fail+sdcch_lapd_fail)/sum(sdcch_assign BSC Traffic+sdcch_ho_seiz).

    can you please help?

    Hi User_2010 , I usually got this problem with Alcatel. What i do is to check for SDCCH Mean holding time for all of the TRXs ( of course if u’ve got more than One). U could probably see that one TRX have huge SD MHT , then switch off the SDCCH defined on that TRX , you should overcome SD drops. And this TRX might be the cause of your low CSSR because of TCH assignment failures radio. Just try theses , and feedback .

    I hope it would help u.

    Hi Atto
    I have changed SDCCH location from BCCH TRX to another one. But it didn’t help. Problem are same.
    Now I have found a problem on this site, maybe reason is this

    “RSSI detected Rxsignal difference exceeding threshold”

    Realy, I don’t know its explanation.
    Also pay attention that the site is Nokia.

    Thanks

    hi User_2010,

    i know u’re using NOKIA, it is why i didn’t give you KPI names to check.
    Just try to have KPI per TRX, it is the best solution for finding ur problem.
    U said u have change SDCCH location from the BCCH TRX to another TRX; What is your config, i mean how many SDCCH did you define on this cell?

    “RSSI detected Rxsignal difference exceeding threshold” i don’t know what it means , i’m not using NOKIA , but you should probably got a path unbalanced, look for HO causes and see if ur HO are due to low Uplink level or uplink quality too bad.

    Thanks.

    Hi User_2010,
    ATTO is right – check you HW first.
    Also if you use dynamic SDCCH and it is used (a lot of SD traffic) then keep in mind that it is always from the TRX that have less or no static SD configured
