FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Handover success across the network now holds at a stable 99.9%, and the project identified capacity the radio network can deliver beyond what today's service plans use.
Chișinău and Valencia, September 2026 — Moldtelecom (the national telecommunications operator of Moldova) and Kenmei have completed a second joint network optimization project, focused on improving 4G LTE performance and on the initial optimization of Moldtelecom's 5G NSA C-band network.
The project follows an earlier optimization engagement between the two companies. This time the work covered LTE multi-band and carrier aggregation performance, mobility and load balancing, the interaction between the 4G and 5G layers, initial VoLTE tuning, and the identification of the cells holding performance back.
Kenmei worked from Moldtelecom's own network data, analysing configuration and performance to find where the network was not yet delivering what its spectrum allows. Recommendations were reviewed with Moldtelecom's engineering team before implementation, then measured against network data afterwards to confirm what each change had produced.
What the project delivered:
- Handover success between sites and frequencies improved through the project and now holds at a stable 99.9%
- Individual cells that were underperforming on handovers (the moment a call or data session passes from one site to the next) were identified and corrected. The weakest improved from 14% to 91% success.
- Analysis of downlink throughput showed how much capacity the radio network can deliver beyond what today's service plans use, providing Moldtelecom with quantified insight into available network capacity and potential for future service development.
- Radio quality, packet delay, accessibility and 5G NSA performance improved alongside them
The project also leaves Moldtelecom with a measurement baseline for the continued rollout and growing use of its 5G network.
“The results confirm that we are making better use of the spectrum and capabilities already available in our network,” said Victor Moldovanu, Head of Mobile Networks at Moldtelecom. “Working closely with Kenmei allowed our engineering team not only to improve 4G and 5G performance, but also to strengthen our internal optimization expertise. The results and the measurement baseline established through this project will support the further development of our 5G network, particularly as we expand the use of C-band spectrum.”
“Moldtelecom knows its own network better than anyone,” said Javier Grau Cavanillas, COO at Kenmei. “Our part was to read what its data was saying and turn that into changes their engineers could weigh, apply and verify themselves. Working that way is what makes an optimization hold after the project ends.”
