Function Description GSM configuration parameter browse: The GSM configuration parameters can be browsed by MO type or by the topology structure (BSC-BTS-GCELL-GTRX). GSM configuration parameter check: The GSM configuration parameters are compared with those in the baseline configuration template of OMStar V500R008. The OMStar generates an Excel report that provides the live network parameters whose values are different from the baseline values. GSM configuration parameter comparison: Comparison can be made between any two BSC MML configuration script files of different versions or different export time. The comparison results are recorded in an Excel report.

Function Principle After being imported, configuration parameters can be browsed by MO type or by the topology structure. The parameter check function can compare the live network parameters with the baseline template and then provide a report. The configuration parameter check template can be customized. The parameter comparison function compares the differences between two configuration files and provides a comparison report.

Function Description Counters can be customized, and all counters can be browsed by raw granularity, by hour, and by day. Theme query can be customized and performed by cluster. The OMStar provides some basic themes by default. KPI query results can be geographically rendered according to the value ranges. Function Principle When counters are browsed by hour, counter results of each object are aggregated by hour. When counters are browsed by day, counter results are aggregated by day. When the results of one counter for one object in two time segments are compared, the OMStar compares the results of the first day in the earlier time segment with that of the first day in the later time segment by default, and the results from 00:00 through 23:00 within the two days are compared hourly by default.

Traffic Forecast

The neighboring GSM cell analysis function of OMStar V500R008 summarizes and analyzes the MRs and events reported by UEs with the combination of configuration data and engineering parameters and checks missing neighboring cells, redundant neighboring cells, and the priorities that need to be adjusted in terms of a test cell. By directly displaying information, the OMStar helps you resolve network quality problems due to redundant or missing neighboring cells or incorrect priorities of neighboring cells. Algorithm Principle 1. The OMStar calculates the overall score and then ranks the defined and undefined neighboring GSM cells. 2. Determining neighboring cell missing configuration: If the rank of the undefined neighboring GSM cell is less than or equal to the Neighboring Cell Rank No.1 value cell is regarded as a missing neighboring cell. 3. Determining neighboring cell redundant configuration: If the number of handover requests of a defined neighboring GSM cell is less than or equal to the HO Request Number Threshold value or the relative percentage is less than or equal to the relative percentage threshold value, and the number of neighboring cells is greater than the Constraint of Neighboring Cell Table Length value, the cell is regarded as a redundant neighboring cell.

Neighboring GSM Cell Check


Traffic Forecast

OMStar V500R008 provides the neighboring GSM cell check function, in which all neighboring cell information, unidirectional neighboring cells, bidirectional neighboring cells, cells with too few or too many neighboring cells, over distant neighboring cells, and consistency of external neighboring cell parameters are checked. After engineering parameter data is imported, the OMStar can display neighboring GSM, UMTS, and LTE cell information on the map. Based on the neighboring cell check results, neighboring cells can be edited on the map. Algorithm Principle • The OMStar queries the lists of neighboring GSM, UMTS, and LTE cells of a source cell based on the NE configuration file (MML configuration script) to determine unidirectional and bidirectional neighboring cells. • The OMStar counts the number of neighboring cells and compares the number with the threshold set on the OMStar GUI to determine cells with too many or too few neighboring cells. • If engineering parameter data is imported, the OMStar calculates the distance between the source cell and the neighboring cells and compares the calculated values with the threshold set on the OMStar GUI to determine over distant neighboring cells. • The OMStar compares the parameter value configured in the external neighboring of the source cell and the parameter value in the homing BSC to check consistency of an external neighboring cell parameter.

GSM Frequency Check


Function Description Based on configuration data and engineering parameter data, the OMStar renders cells with intra-frequency and inter-frequency neighboring cells in different colors and allows users to manually modify the frequency and export the modified content. The OMStar enables users to check cells with a specific frequency and BSIC, check intra-frequency and co-BSIC neighboring cells, or check intra-frequency and co-BSIC cells across the network. The OMStar can display cells with intra-frequency and co-BSIC neighboring cells on the map and render them in different colors on the engineering parameter map. Function Principle Frequency check: The OMStar searches for the intra-frequency or inter-frequency cells of the specified frequency or cell within a certain range or across the network based on the frequency or cell selected by users. Intra-frequency and co-BSIC check: Based on the check rule selected by users (a specific frequency check, intra-frequency and co-BSIC neighboring cell check, and intra-frequency and co-BSIC cell check across the network), the OMStar identifies the cells with the specified frequency and BSIC or with the same frequency and BSIC as the selected cell.

GSM Indoor Distribution Analysis


Traffic Forecast

If the indoor distribution system is not established properly, indoor subscribers cannot receive good quality services, and outdoor subscribers are also adversely affected by the indoor distribution system. The OMStar provides a simple and accurate method to forecast indoor signal leakage cells and allows users to make adjustment so that outdoor subscribers are prevented from accessing indoor cells. Therefore, the indoor cell congestion and call drops of outdoor subscribers are prevented. The GSM indoor distribution fault check of the OMStar identifies the indoor signal leakage, outdoor signal intrusion, weak coverage, and interference from high buildings.

Algorithm Principle The OMStar calculates level values and quality of dominant serving cells and

Function Description Based on configuration data and traffic statistics (or PRS analysis results), the OMStar supports three traffic forecast scenarios (basic traffic forecast, traffic forecast for the operator's subscriber development plan, and refarming traffic forecast) at four levels (BSC, BTS, cell, and NE group). The OMStar also forecasts dual-mode MS traffic volume. The OMStar displays forecast results and allows users to export them as an Excel report.
