1 Introduction
Nemo Analyze 5.13 is a powerful and versatile, cutting-edge analysis tool for performing benchmarking, troubleshooting and statistical reporting based on drive test data. The system scales from a standalone tool to an enterprise-level client/server solution and incorporates an innovative, low-maintenance database engine that has been designed and optimized specifically for high-performance postprocessing of drive test data. Nemo Analyze helps you to streamline your processes by enabling you to automate the entire data processing chain from a drive test to an open workbook with analysis results. Nemo Analyze offers a comprehensive set of technology-specific Key Performance Indicators for the latest wireless technologies and a wide range of data views that are known to offer the best visualization of drive test data on the market - and yet it is highly cost effective, easy to set up and use, and it scales to meet the needs of organizations of any size. Nemo Analyze offers support for all major wireless technologies, including TDMA, AMPS, cdmaOne, GSM, HSCSD, GPRS, EDGE, WCDMA, HSDPA, CDMA2000, TETRA, TETRAPOL, DVB-H, UMA, HSUPA, TD-SCDMA, and WiMAX. Supported measurement file formats include Nemo, Ericsson TEMS, EADS REMS TETRAPOL, and character-separated value (CSV).

When importing data, various settings need to be made, such as defining the columns to be imported and the columns that define time, latitude, longitude, and other special columns necessary for data visualization. These settings can be saved as a template which allows all files of the defined kind to be automatically loaded into the database. When a CSV template is created, a corresponding table structure is automatically created into the database for the purpose of storing all files of the defined kind. New CSV templates are created from the menu: File Tools Database manager CSV Templates Right-click Add template (See picture below).
After the template has been created, files of the defined type can be loaded into the database in the same way as standard Nemo log files (See picture below)
Loaded CSV files are displayed on the CSV files page of the workspace. When a file is selected in the workspace, the columns of the file are displayed as parameters in the Parameter Tree below. The parameters can be visualized in the same way as with Nemo log files. See the picture below.

UMTS to GSM missing neighbour analysis produces a list of all unique pairs of serving UMTS cell missing GSM neighbour cell found from the measurement data. For each missing neighbour case, serving cell Ec/N0, missing cell Rx level, elapsed time (the length in time the missing neighbour occurrence has been evident in the measurement data), and the distance from the route to the missing cell antenna are returned. With Nemo Analyze Professional it is also possible to drill down from each case to see the situation on the map.
Problem events KPI lists all problem events (dropped calls, failed handovers, location area update failures, etc.) found from the measurement data. The KPI can be visualized as a grid, or on a map as a colour-coded route and/or print value.
