# Framework for Behavioral Analysis of Mobile Networks
## 4 Experiments and Results
### Cell Pattern Detection
This is one of the groups with more cells, and it could be considered as a good-behavior pattern for the analyzed network. It has a quite high number of connected users, and consequently a high number of transmitted data. Throughput per user and per cell achieves high values. It does not reach high levels of resource use, neither of data nor of signaling, and the blocking rate is quite low. It seems to represent not very large cells, which leads to lower latency. In addition, the connections quality is quite high. Pattern 1 (Red). This pattern represents a group of cells with a larger coverage area, although the number of connected users is not very high. The quality offered looks to be quite bad possibly due to high distance between users and base stations, which leads to a higher use of both signaling and data resources. However, the blocking rate is not too high. Poor quality also affects traffic levels and transmission rates on both the downlink and the uplink, despite the higher utilization of resources available in the cells. Pattern 2 (Blue). This pattern is the opposite of Pattern 0, and it characterizes those cells that may be performing worst in the network. These cells are of an intermediate size, but the number of connected users is very low. In addition, the high level of retries per connection indicates that users have trouble accessing the network. It also corresponds to the cells that offer the worst quality, and therefore the transmission levels achieved are quite low, as are the numbers of data transmitted on both links. The poor quality provided also appears in the use of resources, which presents values that are too high compared to the number of users in the cells. In addition, the blocking rate is quite high in this pattern despite not having a high number of users. In this case, there is not a clear reason to justify the behavior of this group, although it can be concluded that the performance of these cells is poor, and a configuration problem or external cause may be the reasons for this malfunction. * Pattern 3 (Orange). This is an intermediate cell pattern because it reaches quite high-quality levels compared to those available for the cells corresponding to Pattern 0. The main difference is the number of users connected to the cells, which is slightly lower. This implies a lower use of both data and signaling resources. The size of the cells is also similar, even improving in terms of latency, as the transmission rates achieved per user are also better. It can be concluded that the cells belonging to this group have a good overall performance. * Pattern 4 (Brown). This pattern is also in the middle, given that it is very similar to Pattern 0 in levels of connected users. In contrast, the quality offered by its cells is not as high as in Pattern 0; therefore, traffic levels and transmission rates on both links are affected. This quality, together with the larger size of the cells, leads to a higher use of available resources for both signaling and user data. In this case, as for Pattern 1, the high distance of connected users may be causing the decrease in quality in relation to other groups. In many cases, this high value of user distance is determined by a bad adjustment of some configuration parameters. \begin{table}
\begin{tabular}{l} \hline
**Key Performance Indicator** & **P0** & **P1** & **P2** & **P3** & **P4** & **P5** \\ \hline Blocking rate in signalling resources & & & & & & \\ Signalling resources usage rate & & & & & & \\ Latency in downlink & & & & & & \\ RSSI in uplink control channel & & & & & & \\ RSSI in uplink shared channel & & & & & & \\ UE distance & & & & & & \\ SINR lower than 2 dB rate & & & & & & \\ \hline \end{tabular}
\end{table} 
Table 6: \(Cont.\)Pattern 5 (Yellow). Finally, a pattern is identified whose quality is adequate, but the number of users connected is too low, with levels comparable to Pattern 2 being reached. In this way, the use of signaling and data resources is very low. Moreover, the volume of transmitted data is also very low in both directions.
