12. KPI DEFINITION AND GENERAL FORMULA
(a) CSSR (Call Setup Success Rate)
Definition: Rate of calls going until TCH successful assignment
Formula: CSSR = (1- SDC Congestion)*(1-SDCDrop)*(1- TCH Assignment Block)*(1-TCH Assignment
Failure)
(b) SCR
Definition: Rate of calls going until normal release that is not interrupted by SDCCH DROP, neither by
assignment failures, and neither by CALL DROP.
Formula : SCR = CSSR * (1 – TCH_Drop_Rate)
(c) Call Drop Rate
Definition: Rate of all losses of TCH connections during a call in relation to the number of successful
Call Setups
∑ TCH_RFloss es + ∑ TCH_MiscDr op
Formula : Call_Drop_ Rate = * 100%
∑ TCH_Normal _Seizure + HO Inc - HO OutGoing
(d) HOSR (Hand Over Success Rate)
Definition: Successful internal and external outgoing handovers of total number of internal and
external outgoing handover attempts
HO_Outgoin g_Success_ BSC_or_MSC _Controlle d
Formula : Hand_Over_ Success_Ra te = * 100%
HO_Attempt
(e) SDCCH Block Rate
Definition: SDCCH congestion of total number of SDCCH seizure attempts
SDCCH_Blocked
Formula : SDCCH_Block_Rate = * 100%
SDCCH_Attempts
(f) SDCCH Drop Rate
Definition: Dropped SDCCH connections of total number of SDCCH connections without TCH
congestion
SDCCH_RF_Losses + SDCCH_Misc_Drop
Formula : SDCCH_Drop_Rate = * 100%
SDCCH_Seizures
(g) TCH Assignment Block Rate
Definition: Rate of TCH unsuccessful seizures during assignment procedure due to congestion
TCH_Blocks
Formula : TCH_Assignment_Block_Rate = * 100%
TCH_Normal_Attempts

(h) TCH assignment Failure Rate (excluding blocking)
Definition: Rate of RTCH seizure failed (system + radio) during normal assignment procedure over
the total amount of RTCH request for normal assignment procedure
∑ TCH_Fail_Radio + ∑ TCH_Fail_BSS
Formula : TCH_Assignment_Failure_Rate = * 100%
∑ TCH_Normal_Attempts
(i) EMD (Erlang Minute per Drop
Definition: Total of Erlang minutes (TCH occupation) in one period measurement per drop call
(after TCH
Assignment).
∑ Traffic(Er lang) * 60
Formula : EMD =
∑ TCH_RF_Los ses + ∑ TCH_Misc_D rop
