Unlike fdma based 2g systems, coverage and capacity are tightly coupled and must be  treated as a whole. Besides new and more sophisticated radio resource management (rrm)  algorithms are present along with a more flexible network with many interdependent parameters,  whose joint adjustment is not trivial. A new radio planning paradigm appears in which the radio  network is optimized by means of complex algorithms both in a static and a dynamic way.    this ph.D. Thesis provides a contribution to the  radio network optimization of 3g\/3.5g networks.  several issues to improve radio network  planning have been investigated and new methods,  guidelines and strategies of analysis have been proposed with the final objective of enhancing the  wireless access network performance. Dynamic  mechanisms being in the blurred line between  radio planning and rrm are also devised and studied.    the first part of this dissertation deals with the configuration of base stations (bss) the impact of  pilot powers, downtilt of antennas and interactions thereof with soft handover parameters are  investigated. Effects beyond well-known facts are outlined and new planning guidelines are derived.  given the results, an automatic planning strategy is devised to automate the configuration of these  parameters and to find a combination such as  traffic is effectively equalized among cells and a  higher capacity is achieved. The technique is based on the simulated annealing metaheuristic and  is able to improve the global performance of the network, represented by a cost function containing  information on the load factor and subject to other quality constraints. The importance of uplink (ul)  requirements, usually missed by  existent proposals, has been also included and analytically  addressed.    reconfiguring bss is not the only means to modify cell shapes, in this sense the study is extended  by introducing repeaters, which allow generating distributed coverage areas. This is the context of  the second part of the thesis. New effects not present in fdma based 2g systems imply that the  radio planning process becomes more complex. Most existent papers dealing with repeaters in  wcdma networks, ignore these effects or claim their irrelevance. That is why the research work  was focused in modeling them, quantifying their impact and deriving radio planning guidelines to  enhance the final performance of  the radio access network. The new expression for the feasibility  condition has been analytically obtained showing a tradeoff between capacity and coverage. This  has been analyzed both theoretically and by means of simulations and the adjustment of several  parameters which have a significant impact is discussed to derive practical rules of thumb. Variation  on the coverage of the donor cell before and after installing repeaters is also modeled.  subsequently, it is proposed a  new methodology to analyze wcdma networks with repeaters  deployment, considering realistically path delays and the behavior of rake receivers. This allows an  enhanced analysis with respect to traditional approaches which, under certain circumstances, tend  to provide erroneously optimistic metrics.  the final part of the dissertation goes one step further in  automatic planning and two dynamic  mechanisms are proposed and validated so that the  network can react and self tune in front of  changes in traffic conditions. The first one follows some previous conclusions and aims at detecting  if one of the links has capacity problems and if so, favors it to delay congestion control actions.  finally, hsdpa technology is introduced and, after analyzing the resources to be shared with a  previous release of umts, it is concluded that a system that dynamically manages the ovsf code  tree is desired. A mechanism aiming at maximizing cell throughput while guaranteeing blocking and  dropping criteria is proposed and validated.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Datos acad\u00e9micos de la tesis doctoral \u00ab<strong>Contribution to wireless access optimization and dynamic enhancement of wcdma networks<\/strong>\u00ab<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>T\u00edtulo de la tesis:<\/strong>\u00a0 Contribution to wireless access optimization and dynamic enhancement of wcdma networks <\/li>\n<li><strong>Autor:<\/strong>\u00a0 Mario Garc\u00eda Lozano <\/li>\n<li><strong>Universidad:<\/strong>\u00a0 Polit\u00e9cnica de catalunya<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fecha de lectura de la tesis:<\/strong>\u00a0 12\/01\/2009<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Direcci\u00f3n y tribunal<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Director de la tesis<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li>Silvia Ruiz Boque<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Tribunal<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li>Presidente del tribunal: ramon Agusti comes <\/li>\n<li>Luis m.
