6 Performance Indicator Management GENEX Nastar WCDMA User Manual
6.1 Overview The statistical information on the performance indicators is the basis for network management and reflects the network quality. Analyzing and evaluating the performance indicators is the essence for locating network problems and improving the network quality. With the statistical information on the performance indicators, you can understand the network performance indicators and further know the actual operational status of a wireless network. Performance management is organized in the three-level management structure, as described in Table 6-1. Table 6-1 Three-level management structure Level Name Description Level 1 Measurement set You can collect performance statistics by calculating measurement counters. Relevant counters are combined for the analysis of a functional item in the system. In the design of the performance statistics function, the combination of the relevant counters is described as a measurement function set, for example, RNC overall performance measurement and MTP signaling link measurement. Level 2 Measurement unit A measurement set contains many statistical items that are classified into different categories. Each category is a measurement unit of the measurement set. Level 3 Measurement item A measurement item refers to a measurement counter. Each counter describes relevant events in the system. You can analyze the counters to generate the performance statistic data.
NOTE
For details about the measurement set, measurement unit, and measurement item, see the iManager M2000 Mobile Network NE Integration Management System Operation Manual. The performance statistic data uses the Nastar performance analysis function. Therefore, ensure that the performance statistic data is imported before using the performance analysis function. To analyze the performance statistic data conveniently, the Nastar WCDMA classifies the performance indicators into different types based on different methods, as described in Table 6-2. Table 6-2 Performance indicators Method Indicator Description Measurement object RNC item Based on the RNC. Cell item Based on a cell. Cell relation item Used to analyze the exchange information between two cells. GENEX Nastar WCDMA User Manual 6 Performance Indicator Management
Method Indicator Description Item definition Original item Collected by the equipment. Calculation item Obtained by calculating the original item. User-defined item Defined by users. For the relevant operations of a user-defined item, see section 6.5 "Creating a User-Defined Item", section 6.6 "Editing a User-Defined Item", and section 6.7 "Deleting a User-Defined Item."
NOTE
During actual analysis, you may use the existing items to calculate the items that are not defined in the Nastar (called as user-defined items). A user-defined item is an extension to the calculation item concept. User-defined items can be used for the performance analysis in addition to original items and calculation items. 6.2 Introduction to the Item Management Function To start item management, perform one of the following three operations:
Choose System > Item Manager on the System menu.
Click on the toolbar.
In the navigation tree, select the WCDMA Performance Analysis node of the Trouble Shooting pane, and then select Item Manager on the shortcut menu, as shown in Figure 6-1. Figure 6-1 Item Manager on the shortcut menu

6.3 Importing Items You may define a performance indicator to evaluate the network performance. Senior network optimization engineers may define the items based on their understanding of the traffic statistics items and analysis experience. You can design a set of analysis schemes to improve the analysis speed and quality. For the engineers who use their own analysis methods and share their experience, the Nastar allows them to import items from a file or to export items to a file. To import items, perform the following steps: Step 1 Select an item in the Performance items management tab, and then select Import on the shortcut menu, as show in Figure 6-3. Figure 6-3 Import on the shortcut menu

7.1 Introduction to the Traffic Statistic Analysis To know the network performance more clearly, you need to obtain and analyze the performance data during busy hours for more than one week. In addition, you must observe whether any item fluctuates obviously or any exceptional situation appears when the equivalent user number of each service is stable. The network performance analysis is used to locate and analyze problems from a large to a small scale.
Analysis scale: The analysis scale is from RNC overall performance and cluster performance to Cell performance.
Horizontal analysis: The horizontal analysis is from one KPI (Key Performance Index) to another KPI.
Vertical analysis: The vertical analysis is from the master KPI to the related Performance Indicators (PIs). In this way, the data can be filtered gradually and analyzed in detail. The Nastar is an intelligent system, integrating the wireless network optimization of Huawei. Figure 7-1 shows the network optimization process.

----End 8.3 Network Bottleneck Report 8.3.1 Introduction to the Network Bottleneck Report The WCDMA is self-interference system. If the traffic volume increases, the network quality declines. When the traffic volume reaches a specific amount, the network KPI comes to an inflexion and the network quality declines dramatically. To timely find out the hidden problem of the network before the network quality deteriorates, you need to take measures, such as expanding the network in advance. Before predicting the network quality, you need to learn the network traffic and usage of each resource. Network bottleneck analysis report provides two functions to help network engineers to analyze the network, as described in Table 8-7. 8 Report GENEX Nastar WCDMA User Manual

11 Neighboring Cell Analysis GENEX Nastar WCDMA User Manual
11.1 Introduction to the Neighboring Cell Analysis Through neighboring cell analysis, you can use the CHR data to query and sort the neighboring cell events, give out intelligent weighted algorithm, add power arithmetic, verify the situation where the inter-frequency neighboring cells are missing, and finally generate a neighboring cell optimization report. Ensure that the following data is imported before you use the neighboring cell analysis function.
Traffic statistic data: mainly uses the measurement set information on the neighboring cell.
CHR data: mainly uses the events reported by check set.
Project parameters: provides the longitude and latitude information to display the cell information.
Configuration parameter: mainly provides neighboring cell information on the cells. The WCDMA Neighbor Analysis node has the following sub-functions, as shown in Figure 11-1. Figure 11-1 WCDMA Neighbor Analysis node
11.2 Neighboring RNC Cell Configuration Check Generally, the neighboring cells of a certain cell belong to the same RNC, but exception also exists. In a certain place, the cells from two different RNCs are required to build up a neighboring relation. These two RNCs are called neighboring RNCs. To configure neighbors of this type, you need to configure the information about the cells on the neighboring RNC before configuring neighbors. During the configuration, some errors GENEX Nastar WCDMA User Manual 11 Neighboring Cell Analysis
may appear and the inconsistency between configuration parameters and actual data is generated. And then the situation that the neighboring cell is unavailable happens. It is necessary for the Nastar to solve this problem. Double-click the Neighbor RNC Cell Configuration Check node, as shown in Figure 11-1. The Neighbor RNC Cell Configuration Check window is displayed, as shown in Figure 11-2. Figure 11-2 Neighbor RNC Cell Configuration Check window

Column name Description Value in Neighbor RNC ID Parameter value in the neighboring RNC.
11.3 Unidirectional Neighboring Cell Check If cell A takes cell B as its neighboring cell, but cell B does not take cell A as its neighboring cell, cell B is the unidirectional neighboring cell of cell A. Generally, neighbors are bidirectional. In certain situations, however, the unidirectional neighboring cell exists in the network. Whether a neighboring cell is unidirectional is not the criterion for judging whether the network configuration is correct. But providing the check for the unidirectional neighboring cell configuration information, it helps to observe the network configuration situation and supplies the reference of network status for network optimization engineer. To check whether a cell is a unidirectional neighbor, perform the following steps: Step 1 Double-click the One-way Neighbor Check node or choose the One-way Neighbor check node and Execute from the shortcut menu.

15.1 Problem Caused by MSDE Uninstalled Incompletely
Problem: After the MSDE is uninstalled, reinstalling the MSDE in the system fails.
Analysis: Because MSDE is not uninstalled completely, there are still MSDE instance files on the disk and registry table.
Answer: Manually delete the MSDE instance files existing in the disk and registry table, and then reinstall it. Pay attention to the following two parts: MSDE register table information: Open registry table to check whether it has the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\GENEX. If so, delete it. MSDE disk path: Stop the MSDE service before manual installation, then delete the disk path (C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL$GENEX). After the remaining MSDE instance files are cleared, you can reinstall MSDE successfully. 15.2 Problem Caused by MSDE Started up Incorrectly
Problem: When the MSDE is started up incorrectly, the system prompts that the database cannot be connected. The problem involves how to start up MSDE manually.
Answer: To solve the problem, perform the following steps: Step 1 Choose Start > All Programs > Microsoft SQL Server > Service Manager. The SQL Server Service Manager dialog box is displayed, as shown in Figure 15-1. GENEX Nastar WCDMA User Manual 15 FAQ
Step 2 Type the sever name (machine name \GENEX) in the Server field. Step 3 Click Start/Continue to start MSDE. ----End NOTE
If you want to check whether MSDE is activated, you can display the SQL Server Service Manager dialog box. Select correct server name, and click Refresh services, the dialog box shows the state of MSDE. 15.3 MSDE Provided by Microsoft Cannot Be Uninstalled
Problem: The MSDE provided by Microsoft cannot be uninstalled.
Analysis: There are some bugs in the Microsoft MSDE.
Answer: Replace the MSDE in the system with the MSDE in the installation package of this software. Perform the following steps: Step 1 Choose Start > All Programs > Microsoft SQL Server > Service Manager. The SQL Server Service Manager dialog box is displayed, as shown in Figure 15-1 Step 2 Manually delete the existing MSDE instance files stored on the disk and registry table. After the remaining MSDE instance files are cleared, you can reinstall MSDE successfully. ----End 15 FAQ GENEX Nastar WCDMA User Manual
15.4 Error Appears When You Type the Path Directly During the Project Creation
Problem: When you directly type the path for the project during creating a project, the project can not be created successfully.
Analysis: The following three causes may lead to a project creation failure: The path the user typed does not exist. The user has no permission to operate the file folder. The disk space is insufficient for the project.
Answer: Ensure that the path exists and you have the permission to operate the file folder, and Check whether the disk has sufficient space for the project. 15.5 The Map Cannot Be Displayed Correctly
Problem: The map is not displayed after the project parameters are imported.
Answer: Check whether GENEX Share component is installed correctly. If the GENEX Share is not installed, install the GENEX Share. Then the map can be displayed normally. 15.6 PDF Chart and CDF Chart During coverage analysis, the PDF and CDF charts are concerned. Here we introduce them briefly.
PDF: Probability Distribution Function Reflects the percentage of each value. It is mostly shown in bar chart and marked each percent value.
CDF: Cumulative Distribution Function Reflects the percentage of each value after being accumulated. It is mostly shown in line chart and marked with percent values. For example, the number series {2, 4, 6, 8, and 10} displayed on the two map charts are described as follows:
PDF chart The number series on X-axis is {1, 2, 3, 4, and 5}, while the number series on Y-axis is {2, 4, 6, 8, 10}. The probability of Y-axis is {6.6%, 13.3%, 20%, 26.7%, 33.3%}.
CDF chart The number series on X-axis is {1, 2, 3, 4, and 5}, while the number series on Y-axis is {6.6%, 19.9%, 39.9%, 66.6%, and 100%}. The CDF chart shows a cumulative effect.
