eNodeB V100R005C00 KPI Reference 1 Overview
1 Overview
With the initial target of downlink peak data rate reaching above 100 Mbit/s, the
next-generation Long Term Evolution (LTE) system is developed to meet the increasing
demands on higher data rate due to fast expansion of multimedia applications. For a new
wireless system like the LTE, a set of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are defined for the
evaluation of system performance, in particular the performance of the evolved Radio Access
Network (eRAN). The comparison between the LTE and the legacy systems such as UMTS or
CDMA2000 system is also specified in this document.
This document specifies a set of eRAN KPIs to evaluate the performance of the LTE system.
Some counters necessary for the KPI calculation are also described in details. Given that the
LTE is a new system, the KPIs in this document are drafted ones and subject to change. KPIs
should be updated according to the experiences of commercial network management and
radio network optimization.
The KPIs in this document are classified into categories based on the measurement targets:
accessibility, retainability, mobility, service integrity, utilization, availability, and traffic KPIs.
This document is organized as follows: firstly we briefly describe the KPI specification
template. Then detailed specifications of each KPI are described in terms of the
aforementioned seven categories. Finally we provide definitions of relevant counters in
Chapter 11 Counter List.

2 Template for KPI Definition
According to the template, the KPI is defined in terms of the following items. Each KPI has
several sub-clauses.
KPI name (clause header)
It is a descriptive name of the KPI.
Descriptions
It provides a brief overview of the KPI.
Measurement scope
It specifies the KPI monitoring scope. In general, the measurement is made in terms of
cells. The KPI value reflects the performance in a cell or a cluster. The associated
counters can be obtained from cell statistics. In this document, cluster indicates a group
of cells selected by user.
Formula
It is used to calculate the KPI. Generally the formula consists of several counters that are
specified in other sub-clauses.
Associated counters
It contains counters used in the formula. Chapter 11 Counter List provides the counter
descriptions.

eNodeB V100R005C00 KPI Reference 3 Accessibility KPIs
3 Accessibility KPIs
Accessibility KPIs are used to measure the probability whether services requested by a user
can be accessed within specified tolerances in the given operating conditions. The service
provided by the E-UTRAN is defined as EPS/ERABs. Radio Resource Control (RRC)
connection and System Architecture Evolution (ERAB) setup are the main procedures for
accessibility KPIs. The accessibility KPIs can be calculated per cell or cluster. The KPIs at the
cluster level are calculated by aggregating all cell counters of the same cluster.
3.1 RRC Setup Success Rate (Service)

3.1.1 Description
According to Reference[1], the RRC connection setup procedure is triggered by various
different causes as identified by the establishmentCause field in RRCConnectionRequest
message: emergency, highPriorityAccess, mt (Mobile terminating)-Access, mo (Mobile
Originating)-Signaling, and mo-Data. The UE sets the establishmentCause in accordance with
the information received from upper layers. Causes except mo-signaling are categorized as
service-related ones. The mo-signaling cause is a signaling-related cause. This KPI evaluates
the RRC setup success rate with service-related causes in a cell or cluster Involved.
The KPI is calculated based on the counters measured at eNodeB when the eNodeB receives
an RRC Connection Request from the UE, as shown in Figure 3-1. To illustrate the KPI
calculation procedures, we briefly discuss how the related counters (number of RRC
Connection setup attempts (service) and number of successful RRC setup (service)) are
collected. The number of RRC Connection attempts is collected by the eNodeB at
measurement point A and the number of successful RRC connection is counted at
measurement point C. The related counters are discussed in Chapter 11 Counter List.

Figure 3-1 Measurement point for RRC connection setup
3.1.2 Definition
The RRC setup success rate (service) KPI is defined in Table 3-1. Note that the number of
RRC connection setup attempts (service) and the successful RRC connection setup times
(service) is collected based on the descriptions in Section 3.1.1 .

3.2.1 Description
This KPI evaluates the RRC setup success rate of the signaling-related cause (mo-signaling)
in a cell or a cluster.
Like the RRC Setup Success Rate (service), this KPI is used to calculate the RRC setup
success rate only when the establishmentCause field is set to mo-signaling in a cell or a
cluster.

3.2.2 Definition
The RRC setup success rate (signaling) KPI is defined in Table 3-2. Note that the RRC
connection setup attempts (signaling) and the successful RRC connection setup counters
(signaling) are collected based on the descriptions in Section 3.2.1 .

3.3 ERAB Setup Success Rate (VoIP)

3.3.1 Description
This KPI is used to evaluate the ERAB setup success rate of the VoIP service in a cell or a
cluster.
The counters related to this KPI are measured when the eNodeB receives an ERAB Setup
Request message or an Initial Context Setup Request message from the MME, as shown in
Figure 3-2 according to Reference [2] and Reference [3]. The ERAB is part of the Evolved
Packet Service (EPS) bearer. According to Reference [4], an ERAB is one or more Service
Data Flows between UE and EPC. The ERAB identity remains unique for the UE even if the
UE-associated logical S1-connection (S1 bearer) is released during periods of user inactivity.
The ERAB consists of both ERAB radio bearer (between eNodeB and UE, same as the radio
bear defined in the EPS bearer) and corresponding S1 bearer (between eNodeB and MME).
Figure 3-2 and Figure 3-3 show two scenarios: MME-initiated ERAB setup (Scenario A) and
UE-triggered ERAB setup (Scenario B). Scenario B is triggered by the radio bearer setup.
Initial Context Setup Request messages are exchanged between eNodeB and MME. If the
ERAB Setup Request message or Initial Context Setup Request message requires multiple
ERAB setups at the same time, specific counters are incremented for each ERAB .

Figure 3-2 Measurement point for MME-initiated ERAB setup
Figure 3-3 Measurement point for UE-triggered ERAB setup

Number of ERAB Connection setup attempts is collected by the eNodeB at measurement

point A and the number of successful ERAB connections is counted at measurement point B,
as shown in Figure 3-2 and Figure 3-3. Note that the eNodeB needs to specify the Quality of
Service (QoS) Class Identifier (QCI) for VoIP in the ERAB setup message.
The voice service can be identified by the QoS information, in particular the QCI in the
ERAB Setup Request message. In general, QCI 1 is assigned to the voice service.
3.3.2 Definition
The ERAB setup success rate (VoIP) KPI is defined in Table 3-3. Note that the ERAB setup
attempts (VoIP) and the successful ERAB setup counters (VoIP) are collected based on the
descriptions in Section 3.3.1 .

4 Retainability KPIs
Retainability KPIs are used to evaluate the network capability to retain services requested by
a user for a desired duration once the user is connected to the services. These counters can be
calculated per cell or per cluster. The KPIs at the cluster level can be calculated by
aggregating all the cell counters. Retainability KPIs are important in evaluating whether the
system can maintain the service quality at certain level.
4.1 Call Drop Rate (VoIP)

4.1.1 Description
This KPI can be used to evaluate the call drop rate of the VoIP service in a cell or a cluster.
The call drop rate is calculated by monitoring the VoIP ERAB abnormal release rate. Each
ERAB is associated with the QoS information. The voice service can be distinguished by the
specific QCI = 1.
ERAB includes both the ERAB radio bearer and corresponding S1 bearer. Any abnormal
release on either bearer causes call drop and therefore is counted into the call drop rate. The
abnormal release is identified by the CauseIE defined in Reference[3]. The Call Drop Rate
(CDR) is defined as Abnormal ERAB release / All released ERAB.
Note that there are two different procedures indicating the ERAB release: they are indicated
through E-RAB Release Indication and UE Context Release Command as shown in Figure
4-1.

Figure 4-1 Abnormal ERAB release
As shown in Figure 4-1, the abnormal ERAB release counter is incremented when the
eNodeB sends an E-RAB Release Indication to the MME or receives an UE Context Release
Command message from the MME and the release causes are not Normal Release, User
Inactivity, Partial Handover, or Handover triggered. If the message contains several ERAB ID
IEs (in the ERAB to Be Release List IE), the counter will be incremented for each individual
ERAB.
For the eNodeB-initiated abnormal ERAB release, the eNodeB knows whether it is a normal
or abnormal ERAB release.

eNodeB V100R005C00 KPI Reference 5 Mobility KPIs
5 Mobility KPIs
Mobility KPIs are used to evaluate the performance of E-UTRAN mobility, which is critical
to the customer experience. Several categories of mobility KPIs are defined based on the
following handover types: intra-frequency, inter-frequency, and inter-Radio Access
Technology (RAT).
5.1 Intra-frequency Handover Out Success Rate

5.1.1 Description
This KPI can be used to evaluate the intra-frequency Handover out success rate in a cell or a
cluster. The intra-frequency handover (HO) includes both inter-eNodeB and intra-eNodeB
scenarios. To illustrate the KPI calculation, we briefly discuss how the related counters
(number of intra-frequency HO attempts and number of successful intra-frequency HO
attempts) are collected.
Intra-eNodeB HO scenario is shown in Figure 5-1. The HO attempt counter is collected at
point B. When the eNodeB sends an RRCConnectionReconfiguration message to the UE, it
decides to perform a handover. The eNodeB counts the number of attempts to perform
intra-eNodeB intra-frequency HO in the source cell. The success HO counters are collected at
point C. The eNodeB counts the number of successful intra-eNodeB intra-frequency HOs in
the source cell when the eNodeB receives the RRCConnectionReconfigurationComplete
message from the UE.

Figure 5-1 Scenario for Intra-frequency Intra-eNB HO
Two scenarios are available for the inter-eNodeB HO, as shown Figure 5-2 and Figure 5-3.
The HO attempts are collected at point B. When the Source-eNodeB (S-eNodeB) sends an
RRCConnectionReconfiguration message to the UE, it decides to perform an inter-eNodeB
HO. In this KPI, the source and target cells of the handover are at the same frequency. The
number of inter-eNodeB intra-frequency HO attempts is measured at the source cell.
The number of inter-eNodeB intra frequency success HOs is collected at point C as shown in
Figure 5-2 and Figure 5-3. During a handover with the source and target cells at the same
frequency, the number of successful inter-eNodeB intra-frequency HOs is measured in the
source cell when the S-eNodeB receives a UE Context Release message from the
Target-eNodeB (T-eNodeB) or a UE Context Release Command message from the MME,
indicating that the UE access to the T-eNodeB is successful.
Figure 5-2 Scenario A for intra-frequency inter-eNodeB HO

Figure 5-3 Scenario B for intra-frequency inter-eNodeB HO
5.1.2 Definition
The intra-frequency handover out success rate is defined in Table 5-1. Note that the HO
attempts and the successful HO counters are collected based on the descriptions in Section
5.1.1 .

5.2 Inter-frequency Handover Out Success Rate

Similar to Intra-frequency Handover Out Success Rate, the target eNodeB and source eNodeB
are at different frequencies.

5.2.1 Description
This KPI can be used to evaluate the inter-frequency handover out success rate in a cell or a
cluster. Note that the measurement points for the associated counters are the same as those for
the intra-frequency HO scenario described in 5.1.1 . The target LTE cell operates at the
frequency different from that of the source LTE cell, which is the only difference.
As shown in Figure 5-1, if the source and target cells at different frequencies are controlled by
the same eNodeB, the eNodeB counts the number of intra-eNodeB inter-frequency HO
attempts at point B and the successful intra-eNodeB inter-frequency HOs at point C in the
source cell. As shown in Figure 5-2, if the handover source and target cells are at different
frequencies, the eNodeB counts the number of inter-eNodeB inter-frequency HO attempts at
point B and the successful intra-eNodeB inter-frequency HOs at point C in the source cell.

5.3 Handover In Success Rate

5.3.1 Description
This KPI can be used to evaluate the handover in success rate in a cell or a cluster. The HO
includes both inter-eNodeB and intra-eNodeB scenarios. To illustrate the KPI calculation, we
briefly discuss how related counters (number of HO attempts and number of successful HOs)
are collected.
Intra-eNodeB HO scenario is shown in Figure 5-4. The HO attempt counters are collected at
point B. When the eNodeB sends an RRCConnectionReconfiguration message to the UE, it
decides to perform a HO. The eNodeB counts the number of intra-eNodeB handover attempts
in the target cell. The success HO counter is collected at point C. The eNodeB counts the
number of successful intra-eNodeB HOs in the target cell when the eNodeB receives an
RRCConnectionReconfigurationComplete message from the UE.

Figure 5-4 Intra-eNodeB HO
Two scenarios are available for the inter-eNodeB HO, as shown in Figure 5-5 and Figure 5-6.
The HO attempts are collected at point B in the target cell when the T-eNodeB sends a
Handover Request Acknowledge message to the S-eNodeB or the MME. The number of
successful inter-eNodeB HOs is measured in the target cell at point C when the T-eNodeB
receives an RRCConnectionReconfigurationComplete message from the UE.

5.4 Inter-RAT Handover Out Success Rate (LTE to CDMA)

5.4.1 Description
This KPI can be used to evaluate the inter-RAT handover out success rate in a cell or a cluster.
As suggested by the KPI name, this KPI measures the performance of the inter-RAT handover
from LTE to CDMA. To illustrate the KPI calculation, we briefly discuss how the related

counters (number of inter-RAT HO from LTE to CDMA attempts and number of successful
inter-RAT HOs) are collected.
As shown in Figure 5-7, the measurement for inter-RAT HO from LTE to CDMA attempt is
collected at point B where the eNodeB sends a MobilityFromEUTRACommand message to
the UE and decides to perform a handover to the CDMA system. The measurement of
successful inter-RAT HO (from LTE to CDMA) is performed at point C where the UE sends a
UE Context Release Command message to the eNodeB through the MME after accessing the
CDMA system.
