Abstract :
In this work, measurement results obtained by means of drive test with the aid of WCDMA TEMS tool for an operating 3G-UMTS network are shown. In particular, issues in the behaviour of active set dimensioning, event handling and power control loops have been analyzed. The results reveal that continuous monitoring of the different radio propagation conditions is desirable in order to adequately parameterize each one of the cells in the network.
