Therefore, it is necessary to improve the quality of service in order to get a larger connection capacity and a high speed data access. Based on the condition, the research was carried out on planning the LTE-A network. In this research, the LTE-A network of 2300 MHz TDD frequency was planned in Nipah Mall Makassar by using parameters data from an existing operator and planned parameters. The research was conducted in several stages: existing data analysis, network planning based on capacity, and network planning based on coverage. The network planning then simulated using radio wave propagation simulator RPS5.4 to know the signal level of the antennas. The results show the network throughput in Nipah Mall is 253.8 Mbps uplink and 761.0 Mbps downlink. The number of cells required are 6 cells for uplink and 3 cells for downlink. The MAPL values are 104.94 dB uplink and 89.4 dB downlink where coverage radius are 115 m and 50 m for uplink and downlink respectively. Simulation results of RPS5.4 show the signal level both RSRP and SIR. The signal levels of RSRP range from -10 dBm to -45 dBm while the signal levels of SIR range between 10 dB and 40 dB. The signal levels both RSRP and SIR shows the planning of LTE-A network in Nipah Mall Makassar have a good signal level. ## Keywords - Telecommunications link - Computer network - SIGNAL (programming language) - Cellular network - Network planning and design - Telecommunications - Computer science - Engineering - Electronic engineering - Electrical engineering - Programming language --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
