  3. The Problem • We want to tune cellular systems for: • Contract requirements • Peak performance

  4. We can change: • Antenna Power • Antenna Tilt (with difficulty) • Antenna Azimuth (ditto) • (GSM) frequency plan • Not antenna location • Plausible for a metropolitan area market.

  5. Current Practice: Drivetests • Drive around making measurements • adjust some parameters • repeat until done

  6. Ocelot Approach • Model system numerically • Compute performance measures for model • Numerically optimize performance

  7. OCELOTOptimization Ocelot-Optimized Design Coverage: 98% Initial Design Coverage: 84% Uncovered Areas. Covered Areas. Sectors colors: Tilt 00 7 0

  8. Performance measures • Coverage • should serve all of market, without “holes” • Capacity • should serve as many calls as possible • There is a tradeoff between these two goals

  9. Low Coverage High Coverage High Pilot Pollution in Center => Large Coverage Hole Reduced Pilot Pollution in Center: => Small Coverage Holes Cells have equal traffic load => High Effective Network Capacity Traffic load unbalanced => Small Effective Network Capacity High Capacity Low Capacity Max Coverage vs. Max Capacity Network coverage and network capacity cannot be optimized at the same time =>Example: 5-Cell Scenario Large Antenna Tilt Small

  10. Max Capacity Max Coverage Compromise Capacity vs. Coverage 50% 3%

  11. Demo of OCELOT in Action • Optimization of a CDMA Market

  42. OCELOT Performance • Significant Performance Improvements using Ocelot • Coverage : 5% to 20% • Capacity : 20% to 80% • Field trials have Demonstrated Ocelot Optimization is Superior to Drive Test Optimization • Ocelot successfully used worldwide • Used in ~30 CDMA IS95 markets • Used in ~10 GSM markets • Demo UMTS markets

  43. Technical Challenges • Traffic modeling (pattern of calls) • Predicting pathlosses (signal strengths) • Modeling network performance • Hard: phones and base-stations interact • Computing derivatives (for optimization) • User interface should be: • Robust to errors • Responsive while computing

  44. Outline • Traffic modeling and meshes • CDMA system modeling • Reverse-link interference and power control • Power amplifier sharing • The GUI • Theme: many applications of algorithmic ideas

  45. Traffic modeling • Phone traffic pattern is modeled with a “mesh” • planar graph • Evaluate system based on calls from mesh edges • Mesh is from a street map (if available) • Street map density is roughly population density • People make calls from cars • Edges of mesh also have traffic weights

  46. Geometric operations • Import maps • Map overlay: line segment intersection • Clipping against polygons • user supplied, or • “Autoboundary”

  47. Imported map

  48. Phone traffic on roads

  49. Why we need clipping

  50. Autoboundary • Base-station locations imply phone traffic density • Code: • find a-shape • Minkowski sum with square • Cull
