1 GENERAL STRUCTURE
The first row of the file contains the keywords that define the order of the parameters in the
following lines. Keywords are separated with semicolon (;) or tabulator character.
Other rows in the file contain the cell definitions. Each line describes one cell and contains a set of
parameters describing the cell as well as the site in which the cell resides. For both site and cell
information, there are both mandatory parameters and optional parameters. Site and cell
parameters are separated with semicolon or tabulator character.
The file format supports three data types: integer, float and string. Integer type is defined as a
numeric value without dot character. Float type is defined as a numeric value with dot character.
String type is defined as a set of any printable ASCII characters except semicolon.

2 CREATING BTS FILES
BTS files can be created, for example, with MS Excel. Type in the cell parameters and save the file
in CSV format. After you have saved the as CSV, please check with Notepad (or with similar ASCII
text editor) that your delimiter is either semicolon or tabulator. Also check that your coordinates
have the period (.) character, for example 65.012345. Finally, change the file extension to .nbf.

3 PARAMETERS
3.1 Mandatory cell parameters
Parameter Keyword Type Description
System SYSTEM String AMPS, GSM, TDMA, CDMA, UMTS,TETRA, TD-SCDMA, WIMAX, EVDOor LTE.
Site Name SITE String Name of the site.
Cell Name CELL String Name of the cell.
Latitude LAT Float Latitude of the site in degrees.
Longitude LON Float Longitude of the site in degrees.
Decimal degrees (DD) express latitude and longitude geographic coordinates as decimal fractions
and are used in many Geographic Information Systems (GIS), web mapping applications such as
Google Maps, and GPS devices. Decimal degrees are an alternative to using degrees, minutes, and
seconds (DMS). As with latitude and longitude, the values are bounded by ±90° and ±180° each.
Positive latitudes are north of the equator, negative latitudes are south of the equator. Positive
longitudes are east of Prime Meridian, negative longitudes are west of the Prime Meridian. Latitude
and longitude are usually expressed in that sequence, latitude before longitude.
3.2 Optional cell parameters
Note that BSIC number format and separator parameters are defined per BTS file, not per
cell. If these two parameters are included in the BTS file, they must be located at the
beginning of the file on separate rows. See example below.

3.9.3 Cell search method
Lines are drawn from the current location on a map to the serving cell and neighbor cells based on
the following algorithm.
Base Station ID + Preamble index
Frequency + Preamble index
Note that if multiple matching cells are found, closest cell is selected. The cell is matched
only if distance is less than 50 km (31 miles).
