What is RF Drive Testing?

What is RF Drive Testing?

RF Drive testing is a method of measuring and assessing the coverage, capacity and Quality of Service (QoS) of a mobile radio network.

What are the major LTE drive test parameters?

RSRP is the received power of 1 RE (3GPP definition) average of power levels received across all Reference Signal symbols within the considered measurement frequency bandwidth. RSSI is measured over the entire bandwidth. N, number of RBs across the RSSI, is measured and depends on the BW.

What is SSV in telecom?

Single Site Verification (SSV) or Single Cell Function Test (SCFT) SSV drive test or SCFT drive test is all about performing 5G/4G/3G drive test analysis on a particular site (Example newly installed cell tower) and this is usually performed by drive testing or by walk testing around the site.

What is KPI in LTE?

The 4G/LTE technology has been developed to meet user requirements and provide high network performance. In order to monitor and optimize the network performance, there is a need of using Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). The KPIs can control the quality of provided services and achieved resource utilization.
