ANR

  Automatic Neighbor Relations or with shortened version ANR is a self-optimization function of SON. ANR automatically identifies and adds missing neighboring cells which have strongest signal. It removes incorrect or redundant neighboring cells, and it automatically optimizes the attributes READ MORE

Block Error Rate in LTE

  “Block Error Rate” or BLER is a measurement type of quality in telecommunication. Simple calculation of the measurement: BLER (in LTE) = Number of erroneous blocks / total number of received blocks The calculation is based on CRC (Cyclic READ MORE
