GSM - Low Paging Sucess Rate Issue

Paging discards can be a source low PSR or users complaining about getting "user not responding" messages as they call party B in GSM. The steps that can be taken to reduce or eliminate discards are as follows:

1- LAC Splitting
2- Cell paging capacity
      - can be increased of worst offenders
      - Shifting of SD/PD timeslots to non-BCCH TRXs
3- Audit of Periodic Location Update BSC Timer Value (t3212)
      - Can be set to 6 hours
      - This timer value at the MSC should be greater than the BSC value
4- Activation of Precise Paging Feature
      - Paging is done only on cells where there is high probability of finding subscribers according to the location record saved in the BSC
