Overview:
The typical problems within the wireless networks include weak signal strength, bad cell handover, neighboring cell frequency
disturbance, low RxLev, RxQual, wrong signaling transmission, bad VQT score, and so on. Therefore, very often the wireless service
providers, testing/engineering/consulting companies require wireless test equipment to optimize their network resources.
GL's new product, MobNetMon™, is used primarily for Drive Testing in order to determine the weak points in the wireless network.
It permits automatic "off-air" monitoring of any GSM network directly from a Quad band wireless phone. With this equipment, users
can generate calls, view primary and surrounding GSM base stations and detailed GSM protocol messages along with call tracing and
protocol analysis.
Full decode of the GSM layer 3 messages is provided for both real time and post processing analysis. While the call is connected,
change cell towers, induce critical tests within the network, and send/record voice traffic automatically. MobNetMon™ can also be
used for Network Optimization as well as a Voice Quality Drive testing tool. The GL's MobNetMon™ along with VQuad™ together
provide a complete solution for the next generation VQT/QOS testing.
Main Features:
- Quad Band and Multi-Network support including GSM, GPRS, EDGE and all frequency bands (850MHz/900MHz/1800MHz/1900MHz)
- Real-time Protocol Analysis of GSM layer 3 messages
- Automated scripted Call Control
- Automated Traffic generation/reception for use with GL's VQT
- GSM Layer 2/ 3 data collection on air interface
- Support up to 4 test phones simultaneously
- Allows complete drive testing functionality throughout the GSM network
- All results may be plotted on local maps (most countries available) using an optional GPS receiver
- Intrusive testing including cell tower selection
- CDMA network support coming soon
- Network information, which includes serving cell and 6 neighboring cells (RxLev, RxQual, TA, BSIC, etc.)RF, reselection parameters
of the serving cell
- Frequency scanner for all 4 GSM bands. False measurement report to manually trigger handover, cell reselection and so on
- GPRS/EDGE Layer 3 Data
- GPRS/EDGE LLC Data
- GPRS/EDGE RLC/MAC Data
- AMR Data
- AMR RATSCCH Data
Solutions
- Daily operation and maintenance (service providers must make sure of network equipment operation).
- The MobNetMon™ w/VQT is the best tool for optimizing the wireless network.
- Deploying a new network for the service provider
User Interface
Serving Cell Chart
Displays the GSM parameter values of the serving cell such as RxLev, RxQual, TxPwr, TA, and Signal strength. Pause, zoom,
and print features available.
GSM Parameters
Displays the GSM RR and MM layer information. Indicates the idle channel and dedicated channel information of GSM RR layer.
GSM Test
Allows the user to force the idle cell as well as force a cell handover during an established call.
Phone Call Control
Application permits users to configure a call plan during the test or to dial a specified destination number manually. The "call
statistics" displays all call events.
Mapping
The test trace route can be drawn on the optional street map with user-defined colors for the selected GSM parameters.
