The aim, parameters, characteristic and procedure of WCDMA radio network planning (RNP) are introduced in this thesis. The principle of WCDMA RNP process that coverage, capacity and quality of service (Qos) are closely related and should be eclectically considered is expatiated by theoretical analysis. Then the method how to use the principle in practical projects is discussed, through the process of the choice of network parameters, radio link budget (RLB), capacity planning and static network simulation,.This thesis consists of the following four sections.Firstly, by reviewing the evolvement history of the cellular mobile telecommunication system and multiple access technology, the difference of radio network planning among three-generation cellular mobile telecommunication systems as well as the necessity of WCDMA RNP are introduced. Then there is a brief introduction of the global and domestic situation and the trend of 3rd generation (3G) network, then significance of WCDMA RNP is pointed out.Secondly, because WCDMA is an interference-limited system, the concept of load factor is introduced to analyze the interference degree. Through theoretical analysis we can find that coverage, capacity and quality of service are closely related in WCDMA network. The author proves this by analyzing the data from static network simulation and then points out the significance of network simulation.Thirdly, the procedures of WCDMA RNP are expatiated based on a practical project. WCDMA RNP is a systemic process, including the enactment of network parameters and aims, dimensioning, network simulation... |
