Hi All.
If 2G site ID is XXXG001, 3G site name is XXXU001, 4G site name is XXXL001 then what could be the 5G site name?
Can anyone please suggest?

Hi Experts.
I have one basic doubt regarding Cell site naming.
Is there convention every one follows?
Like “circle_indoor / outdoor /_location_a” etc.?
Or its entirely up to the Operator?
From what I see, I have worked with 5 Operators.
All have different methods in the naming.
The most convinced one is having a site code that reflects the physical site.
Per technology, you can add the RAN indicator (G/U/L/NR)
In the cell name, you can add the band indicator (L18 / G900 / U900 /…)
For the indoor outdoor, it’s related sometimes to the solution itself, whether it’s Ericsson / Huawei / …
OD / ID / IBS / ISC / GD…
But yes, you can add this indicator for (indoor out door) as a prefix in the site code.
The location can be added in the site name as well (as indicator)
West bay = WB
east coast = EC
…
Or as the planner suggests.
Maintaining good naming methodology will save tones of times later when you want to deal with site insights (counts / places /…)
Thanks!
I am trying to figure out here with name “UW_E_T1_OM_HAP40C_N”
As you mentioned “E” is for E/// hat does T1 do here is it TDD?
OM means out door what about HAP40C and also the last letter I see N, A, B,C, D etc. what could it be?
T1- Indicates TDD Carrier 1.
HAP40 means Site ID, C_N means Gamma sector has Bi-Sector Antenna installed.
i.e. 2 TDD Cells are serving having cell name C_C & C_N where N will be the new Bi_Sector cell.
Thanks for the explanation.
Is this defined some where in standard which we can decode or its specific?
Because in some other cases I see B_B, A_A, D_D etc.
How to know the other combination?
A_A, B_B, C_C are usual 3 sectors sites.
Some sites are deployed with 4 sectors, so at those sites you will find additional D_D sector.
And if you find cell name viz A_L, B_M, C_N or D_O, then in those cells Bi sectors are added to enhance the capacity of site.
Thanks!
That makes much clear now!
So usually A,B,C,D for normal sectors.
If Bi-sector LMNO.
Thanks. Appreciate help.
