PCI Auto-configuration Definition
PCI (Physical Cell Identifier): Collision-free, Confusion-free, Unique
ID for identify the area for minimize interference between RSs
Collision-free: Two neighboring cells should not use the same PCI.
Confusion-free: A cell should not have two neighbors with the same PCI
Minimize interference among RS (cell-specific Reference Signal)
Self Establishment step: under installation, Initial PCI allocation is executed using
operating eNB information
Self Optimization step: in operating, Detect PCI collision/confusion and re-
allocation with exchanging message using X2 interfaces

2) Calculates average distance(D) between neighbor cell on Initial NRT
3) Calculation RSI (Root Sequence Index) Reuse Black List
– RSI Reuse Black List standard distance = max{ R, n*D}
– R: standard distance configured by operators, 0~100 Km, default = 0 Km

4) Allocates2) RSI except RCI Reuse Black List
– If there is no available RSI, allocate max value of Reuse Distance
5) Allocates PRACH Configuration Index per sector
