Evaluación de parámetros de handover en una red LTE mediante el software ics-designer

Abstract

Due to the increase in the number of mobile telephony in the city of Quito, it can be seen that remaining connected to the network without losing voice and data communication when the terminal is in motion, is a necessity for the user, LTE responds by means of the handover mechanism that allows to maintain a continuous communication. This work focuses on the parameters involved in the handover such as the RSRP, RSRQ and Handover Margin, which through the ICS Designer software are evaluated and analysed with the objective of understanding how each parameter affects the performance of the network. For the analysis of the parameters, two scenarios are considered, which are determined according to the location of a mobile route, the route will be located near the base stations for the first case and on the edge of the cell for the second scenario.
