3G网络简化推进策略研究

Research on Strategies for 3G Network Simplification

3G网络简化可以腾退优质频谱资源、节能增效、提升网络性能。针对3G网络简化需要解决的问题,归纳总结国外运营商网络精简经验,为我国运营商网络简化提供参考;并以某运营商2022年底数据为例,分析3G网络覆盖情况、网络用户及业务承载情况,构筑端、网、业协同模型,评估了3G退网可行性及节奏;从网络侧和市场侧2个方面提出了相应的保障措施,推进网络简化,确保用户感知、网络覆盖不下降,顺利过渡到4G/5G网络。

The simplification of 3G networks can free up valuable spectrum resources,improve energy efficiency,and enhance network performance.It aims to address the issues related to 3G network simplification and summarize the experiences of foreign operators,providing references for network simplification by Chinese operators.Using the data from an operator at the end of 2022 as an example,it analyzes the coverage,user base,and service capacity of 3G networks,establishes an end-to-end collaborative model,and assesses the feasibility and pace of 3G network retirement throughout the year.Corresponding measures are proposed from both the network and market perspectives to promote network simplification,ensuring that user experience and network coverage do not decline,and facilitating a smooth transition to 4G/5G networks.
