Evaluation of Radio Communication Links of 4G Systems

Radio communication systems are very widely present in our current smart lifestyles. It consists of two ends, which can carry the transmitter’s information to the receptor. Before installing any radio communication system, it is necessary to analyze the link resources. Hence, this analysis allows the determination of the received radio communication strength to prove if it is sufficient for the link to work correctly and assure a high quality of service. For this reason, new services and technologies are integrated. The objective of the present work is to improve the performance of the radio communication link of 4G systems. The study is based on real measurements using the drive test. The data collected by the drive test are analyzed to increase the performance of the radio communication. Based on this data analysis, recommendations and suggestions are issued for improving the radio communication link. The obtained results indicate a significant amelioration in the performance of the radio communication link.


Introduction
The field of telecommunications has experienced technological progress in recent years thanks to the strong demand from the population and industry. Among the concerns in this area are mobile networks. The development of mobile networks has continued to grow, and several generations have appeared (1G, 2G, 3G, 4G, . . . ). For example, the 4G Long Term Evolution (LTE) network allows a very high-speed mobile. The evolution of these generations leads to the development of mobile network architecture and the integration of new services. This development affects the mobile network infrastructures such as switching centers, radio communication systems, etc. A radio communication system comprises two ends, allowing information to be transported from one end to another. Before installing a radio communication system, the calculation of the radio communication budget is necessary. Indeed, this calculation makes it possible to determine whether the level of power received by the receiver will be sufficient for the link to operate correctly.
In the literature, several studies have been presented based on the existing propagation path loss models in diverse propagation environments (suburban, dense urban, rural). The authors in the paper [1], present a prediction model to predict the path loss. In order to validate the proposed model, the authors give a comparative study to the models of Okumura and COST-Hata. Based on the Okumura-Hata model and free space path loss, Vithanawasam et al., in [2], are calculated the data rates for varying scenarios in different environments (urban, suburban, and rural). The authors in [3] present five used radio propagation models: Okumura-Hata model, Hata short-range devices model, Cost231Hata model, extended Stanford University interim model, and standard propagation model.

Background
A radio communication link transports information from a transmitter to a receiver. The installation of such a link requires a calculation to improve its performance. This chapter will present the process of calculating the radio communication links of 4G systems. Therefore, the link budget makes it possible to calculate the maximum permissible propagation losses denoted MAPL (maximum allowable power losses) for a mobile located at the edge of the cell, which can reach it while maintaining the level of sensitivity of the base station. It predicts cell coverage radius, propagation pattern, transmitter, and receiver parameters. The transmit power is the maximum power of the base station (eNB), having a typical value for the macro cell (43-46) dBm at the antenna connector. Antenna gain is the power radiated by the antenna in a given direction relative to the energy released by a perfect unidirectional antenna that radiates evenly in all directions. It is expressed in dB but to indicate that the reference antenna used is isotropic, it is customary to speak of dBi. A concept related to that of gain is the effective area of an antenna, which connects to the size and shape of the antenna. The relationship between the gain and the effective area of the antenna is given by [14]: With: A: Equivalent area of the antenna. λ: Length of the radiated wave. The gain of a typical base station antenna is between (15 to 18) dBi, and the gain of the UE (user equipment) antenna is in the range of (−5 to 10) dBi.
The link budget of the transmission system for all gains and losses is the total received signal. It is the received power Pr expressed in dBm by the following equation [15]: where: Pt: transmitter power in dBm.
Gr: receiver antenna gain in dB. Gt: transmitter antenna gain in dB. L: loss in the considered direction. A receiver is characterized by its sensitivity (S) which is the minimum power level of the received signal that allows the reception of the signal (minimum reception power level) [16]. It is given by the following formula: With: K: Constant of Boltzmann (1.388062 × 10 −23 ). T: Ambient temperature (Kelvin). BRx: Receive bandwidth. SINR required : The value of the SINR needed at the receiver is an indicator of system performance; the lower it is, the more efficient the system, depending on the number of resource blocks, information rate required, etc.
NF: RF Noise Figure (dB): depends on the duplexing mode and the duplex deviation. 4G operates in several bandwidths and the bandwidth selection relates directly to base station capacity. During practical planning, for a first-time deployment, the dimensioning is done by a bandwidth of 5 MHz and 10 MHz.

Model of the Propagation
The propagation model makes it possible to estimate the value of the path attenuation. There are several types of models: an empirical model is a mathematical formula used to predict the impact of a transmitter on a specific reception area, andphysical models predict the radio waves propagation and calculate the paths of radio waves taking into account reflection and diffraction phenomena. For our study, we will choose the empirical propagation model. Its formula depends on several factors, namely: the frequency of the wave; the heights of transmitter and receiver antennas, and the distance.

Free Space Propagation
We speak of propagation in free space when there is direct visibility between receiving and transmitting antennas in the absence of any obstacle. The following formula provides the attenuation [1-3]: L = 32.4 + 20log(f) + 20 log(d), With: f: operation frequency (MHz) d: distance between receiver and transmitter (km).

Okumura-Hata Model
The best-known empirical model is the Okumura-Hata model, which is based on Okumura measurements taken in the Tokyo area of Japan. This model considers several factors, essentially the nature of the environment, by specifying its degree of urbanization (dense urban, suburban, rural). The Okumura-Hata model is adapted for the limits:

Study and Simulation of the Radio Links of a 4G System
The radio link quality of 4G LTE systems depends on a set of parameters such as propagation model, variation of the distance between transmitter and receiver, the height of the eNB, power supply, and others. This part presents the simulation results obtained by varying these different parameters and their influences on the radio communication links. In this study, we are interested in a Maximum Path Loss (MAPL). From the MAPL can calculate the radius of the cell to be discovered, we have already given an example of the calculation of coverage radius in the downlink interface.

For the height of the eNB and mobile terminal and according to the obtained results, it can conclude that the link is better when the height increases either at the side of the terminal or the eNB or both. This is explained by the decrease in the number of obstacles with the height until the link can be considered in free space.

Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP)
The RSRP is the received average power of the downlink signals. It is given by the following equation [21,22]: RSRP = (1/K) ∑ P rs,k (11) where: (P rs,k ) [Watts] is the power of the received signal.
The RSRP provides important information about the strength of the received signal to determine optimal power settings for network operation. The most studied area problems are: quality of area coverage due to the geographic profile. In addition, we have inadequate coverage in this area due to the absence of a dominant cell. The obtained results of RSRP with the drive test before dealing with the problems are presented in Figure 7. Under the normal state, when the received signal is not affected by the noise and interference, RSRP varies between [−100, −80] dBm. In good condition, RSRP is higher than −80dBm. For these two states, no action will be done. If the value of RSRP is less than −100 dBm, an activity of optimization is necessary. Several actions are possible: boost the power transmission, increase the height of the transmitter, and the implementation of new eNB if necessary. The obtained values of RSRP before and after treatment are given in Table 1: The histogram's distribution of RSRP before and after treatment is presented in Figure 8. Under the normal state, when the received signal is not affected by the noise and interference, RSRP varies between [−100, −80] dBm. In good condition, RSRP is higher than −80 dBm. For these two states, no action will be done. If the value of RSRP is less than −100 dBm, an activity of optimization is necessary.

According to Figure 8 and Table 1, there is an amelioration of 06.74% in RSRP distribution. These ameliorations are distributed as follows: amelioration of 01.07% in the range of The aim of this section is the amelioration (ensuring maximum possible coverage) of the received RSRP in the area where the power is low (three first cases in Table 1). According to Figure 8 and Table 1, there is an amelioration of 6.74% in RSRP distribution. These ameliorations are distributed as follows: amelioration of 1.07% in the range of [min, −120] dBm; amelioration of 2.16% in the range of [−120, −110] dBm and amelioration of 3.51% in the range of [−110, −100] dBm.

Reference Signal Received Quality (RSRQ)
RSRQ is defined as the quality of the received signal. Measuring the RSRQ becomes mainly crucial near the cell's border when decisions must be made to transfer to the adjacent cell.
The reception quality of the reference signal is used only during the connected states. The RSRQ can be measured with the following equation [7,21,22]: where: N RB is the number of resource blocks of measured RSSI. RSSI: Received Signal Strength Indication (average of the total received power). RSRP: Reference Signal Received Power.
The obtained results of RSRQ with the drive test before dealing with the problems are presented in Figure 9. In this case, the value of RSRQ under the normal state is [−9, −3] dB. In good condition, RSRQ is higher than −3 dB. For these two states, no action will be done.
When the value of RSRQ is less than −9 dB, an action of optimization is necessary. These actions are possible: handover management (the process of transferring intercellular of UE), increase in the height of the transmitter, optimization of antenna tilt parameters, and implementation of new eNB if necessary.
The obtained values of RSRQ before and after treatment are given in Table 2:  In this case, the value of RSRQ under the normal state is [−9, −3] dB. In good condition, RSRQ is higher than −3 dB. For these two states, no action will be done.
When the value of RSRQ is less than −9 dB, an action of optimization is necessary. These actions are possible: handover management (the process of transferring intercellular of UE), increase in the height of the transmitter, optimization of antenna tilt parameters, and implementation of new eNB if necessary.
The obtained values of RSRQ before and after treatment are given in Table 2: The histogram's distribution of RSRP before and after treatment is presented in Figure 10. According to Figure 10 and Table 2, the amelioration in RSRQ is 43.76%. The amelioration is distributed as follows: amelioration of 00.12% in the range of [min, −19.5]dB; amelioration of 11.03% in the range of [−19.5, −14] dB and amelioration of 32.6% in the range of [−14, −9] dB. In this case, the amelioration is very significant.

Signal to Interference andNoise Ratio (SINR)
SINR is a tool for measuring the quality of the UE network when the signal energy decreases with distance, i.e., the path loss of environmental parameters (for example, background noise, and the interference force of another simultaneous transmission).
The signal-to-noise ratio SINR is given by the following equation: S: Power of the received signal. I: Interference power. N: Noise power. The SINR distribution before and after treatment isgiven in Figure 11. According to Figure 10 and Table 2, the amelioration in RSRQ is 43.76%. The amelioration is distributed as follows: amelioration of 00.12% in the range of [min, −19.5] dB; amelioration of 11.03% in the range of [−19.5, −14] dB and amelioration of 32.6% in the range of [−14, −9] dB.

The signal-to-noise ratio SINR is given by the following equation: S: Power of the received signal. I: Interference power. N: Noise power. The SINR distribution before and after treatment isgiven in Figure 11.
In the case of SINR, the values in the normal state are (15,30) dB. In good condition, the values are higher than 30 dB. When the value of SINR is less than 15 dB, an action of optimization is necessary. These actions are possible: boost the power transmission, handover management; increase the height of the transmitter, optimization of antenna tilt parameters, and the implementation of new eNB if necessary.

Conclusions
Mobile telecommunications networks have experienced significant development. The 4G LTE is one of these networks. The effect of this network leads to the integration of new services to ensure high speeds. This development also affects the various network infrastructures. The planning and optimization phase provides this development. Based on drive test tools and TEMS, this work has studied the evaluation of a 4G LTE network. A set of tests and measurements of the several parameters (received signal quality, debit, etc.), have been carried out to find solutions to any problem leading to a weak network. The obtained results demonstrate amelioration in the 4G LTE network. After treatment, the used parameters are enhanced, and the quality of service becomes better than before treatment.
