Operator facing challenges are extensive and unavoidable. New technology, Coverage, Capacity, and Maximizing the Value of Existing Network Resources, are challenging requirements. Network Planning is crucial services for designing any network.

Today's Network Planning requires great strategies and forward planning. In Network planning it is also important to make provision for future innovative technology. We offer services for GSM, GPRS, EDGE, CDMA, WCDMA, Wi-Fi.

Metro Telworks helps customer not only in Network design but also in expanding rapidly and cost effectively.

As a part of Network Planning We offer following services

     • Study of spectrum requirements
     • Network Design and Dimensioning
     • Access Network Planning
     • Transmission and Synchronization plan
     • Switching Network Topology
     • Techno-commercial Bid preparations

Radio network planning comprises of radio network dimensioning, planning of the coverage, capacity, frequency allocation and interference analysis. Moreover it includes detailed planning, which concentrate on parameter planning with necessary field measurement.

RF Cell Planning
     •  Initial dimensioning of the radio network
     •  CW Propagation model tuning
     •  Candidate identification & nominal planning
     •  Technical site surveys

Capacity Planning
     •  Coverage and capacity planning and analysis
     •  Addition of new cell sites
     •  Upgrade of existing cell sites
     •  Signaling/SDCCH dimensioning
     •  Additional spectrum use
     •  Traffic Management

Frequency Planning
     •  Static frequency allocation
     •  Frequency hopping (RF hopping or Baseband hopping)
     •  Frequency and neighbors planning
     •  Hierarchical Cell structure

RF Optimization

High quality of service in mobile networks is the prerequisite for the commercial success. Continuous optimisation is a process, which focuses on checking the network quality continuously and takes actions when needed. It is a more constant way of maintaining good quality in the network, especially when the mobile networks are changing rapidly and more and more customers are being served

     •  Parameter Configuration Check (OMC Audit)
     •  Traffic and throughput analysis
     •  Parameter planning and optimisation
     •  Dropped call analysis
     •  Handover success analysis
     •  Drive test analysis
     •  Interference analysis
     •  Field measurements and acceptance testing
     •  Frequency & Strategy Planning
     •  Top N Site Targeting

Network Support Services

Quality of Service is a measure of how the customer feels the service provided by the network.  QoS is an external measure often supported through drive test programs. This measure provides the customer perspective of Network Quality.

Network performance is a measure of how effectively and efficiently the network is functioning.  Network performance is an internal measure mainly derived from Network Management data.  This measure provides an Engineering perspective of network quality.

     •  Provide Subscriber perception of service
     •  Benchmark figures against competitors
     •  QoS reports for Senior Management
     •  Analysis and evaluation of network upgrades
     •  Acceptance testing of new networks / new regional rollouts
     •  Independent benchmarking of vendor equipment
     •  Continuous/repetitive monitoring to highlight slow degradation of Network Quality
     •  Provision of Engineering data for further analysis
     •  Benchmarking
     •  Network Audits
