Network Problem Location and AnalysisNetwork Problem Location and Analysis

Support the data conversion and sharing between the platforms, analysis of the data collected through Wanhe and Dingli tester, and the cooperation with the traffic statistic, thus providing convenience for the problem location

Drive test analysis platform

Support the combinations of multiple traffic statistic, querying and analyzing according to multiple time granularities, Distract the useful data according to the RNO requirements, and greatly raise the accuracy and efficiency of the check.

Enhanced traffic statistic

Support flexible definition of the KPI indicators, convenient and quick query, and the filter of useless information

Performance indicator analysis

Analyze the key indicators of RNO problems deeply, provide advanced engineers with the function of custom indicator edition, so that the engineers can discuss the problems with their own RNO experience

Network Problem Location and Analysis — Frequency Analysis

Network Problem Location and Analysis — Frequency Analysis

• Co-frequency, adjacent frequency check in the whole network

• General check of Co-frequency Co-BSIC cells

• Idle frequency point search• Spectrum utilization check• Co-HSN Co-MA check• Frequency optimization check

Perfect and effective frequency analysis

The advantages of frequency analysis

• Analyze the frequency points of the current cell, the frequency points of the neighbors, the distance between neighbors, and idle frequency points, so that the engineers can know the frequency quickly and directly.

• Provide great convenience for the site creation and the modification of the cell frequency points

• Evaluate the frequency utilization quickly and ensure the frequency planning is reasonable

Everything is under the

control.


Network Problem Location and Analysis – Neighbor Analysis and Optimization

Network Problem Location and Analysis – Neighbor Analysis and Optimization

This cell has a low handover success rate, Let’s check its neighbor relation.

The neighbor relation does

cause the problem. I will optimize the neighbors.

After the neighbor optimization, the handover success rate rises greatly.

Report Auto-Generation and Experience SharingReport Auto-Generation and Experience Sharing

Output daily reports, weekly reports, and monthly reports automatically, flexibly, and regularly, count the information of the whole network correctly, monitor the network conveniently, and discover and solve the potential network problems in time

Network health check reports: Perform impersonal evaluation to the network indicators and help the engineers to control the network quality easily

Integrate analysis of the measurement reports: Analyze the problem cells according to the uplink\downlink level and give processing ideas to locate and solve the problems directly

Network monitoring reports:Provide network quality monitoring/comparative reports in different levels according to different requirements

Share the classic RNO cases of Huawei RNO experts, enlighten the field engineers to locate the problems, and help the engineers to improve their skills

Module Description

TransData（ An import

module）

This module is used to import data and it has the following

functions:•Browsing the results of the traffic statistic register•Displaying the information of the current database•Backdating the information of the current traffic statistic task

Nastar (The main module) This module is the access end of Nastar and it has the

following functions:•Querying the customized traffic statistic tasks•Displaying the traffic statistic query results directly•Analyzing the RNO topics

NaConvert (An collection

module）

Local network mode:

Offline mode:

In this mode, it is not required to install a database. In this mode, you can only

analyze neighbors and frequencies, but you cannot analyze the traffic statistic.

Online mode:

In this mode, it is not required to install a database. In this mode, you can

analyze the traffic statistic, neighbors, and frequencies. This mode, however,

cannot provide such functions as intelligent reports and performance alarms in

the version of server. In addition, it can only analyze the networks in a restricted

size.
