1. BACKGROUND
• Ooredoo having 3 (three) Frequencies used for 3G network : 2987 (U900 F1), 10
10737 (U2100 F3).
• U900 is the main coverage layer, i.e. more idle mode UEs are expected and less
desired => lower Cell Weight .
• U2100 is become capacity layer which mainly handle higher Traffic => higher Ce
• DC-HSDPA is enabled on U2100 layer only which will be preferred by DC capabl
• MIMO is Enabled on U900 Layer only which will be preferred by MIMO Capable U
