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 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

Analysis 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

Analysis 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

GSM Indoor Distribution

Analysis 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

bull 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

bull 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

bull 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

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

GSM Indoor Distribution

Analysis 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

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 0000 through 2300 within

the two days are compared hourly by default

GSM KPI Management

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 0000 through 2300 within

the two days are compared hourly by default

bull 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

bull 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

bull 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

bull 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

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 0000 through 2300 within

the two days are compared hourly by default

determine unidirectional and bidirectional neighboring cells

bull 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

bull 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

bull 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

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 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

determine unidirectional and bidirectional neighboring cells

bull 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

bull 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

bull 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

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

bull 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

bull 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

bull 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

bull 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

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

bull 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

bull 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

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 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

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 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 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

GSM Indoor Distribution

Analysis 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
