3. Benefits & Key Features of PRS


a. Centralized O & M
b. Integrated Solution
c. Powerful Routine Network Monitoring
d. Flexible & Convenient User applications

 Centralized O & M

 The PRS analyses the performance reports of the networks of multiple


systems, vendors, and versions. The system effectively supports the
operation and maintenance of 2G and 3G hybrid networking
 The PRS can be connected to the OSS EMSs of multiple vendors.

 Integrated Solution

 The PRS can be used with the DAMS and Nastar, and provides end-to-end
network optimization solutions to meet various requirements. The PRS can
be used in scenarios such as routine maintenance, NE creation, system
expansion, and network optimization.

 Powerful Routine Network Monitoring

 You can query the performance KPIs at time or the object dimensions,
which improves the query efficiency. The time dimensions are Raw, hour,
day, week, month, and busy-hour data. The object dimensions are TRX,
Cell, City, Cluster, Cell Group, BSC, Region and entire network.
 The PRS provides internal KPI reports on key NEs and supports user-
defined KPIs and reports. This helps you to focus on the key information
 The system also supports the long-time data storage so that you can learn
the trend of the key data.

I Manager Performance Report System (PRS)

 Flexible and Convenient User Operations

 The PRS supports flexible operations for querying and collecting KPI
statistics. You can query the KPIs at object or time dimensions.
 Support the KPI analysis. You can query results of KPIs at time and object
dimensions without creating a report
 Support the scheduled generation and distribution of reports. Without
starting the PRS client, you can obtain the reports from the FTP server or
the email address.
 Support various report formats. A report can contain multiple pages. Each
page support different report formats and different filtering conditions,
which reduces the user operations.
 The PRS adopts the common object request broker architecture (CORBA)
that provides a basic data service platform for the system. The services and
functions of the PRS are developed and deployed on the basis of modules.
In this way, the PRS can quickly respond to your OM requirements.

4. Common Operations of Report Administrators


a. Customizing Required Counters
b. Customizing Busy Hours
c. Customizing KPIs
d. Creating Reports
e. Setting the Correlations Between Reports and Excel Templates
f. Distributing Reports Periodically

 Customizing Required Counters

 By default, the PRS can obtain the data of some counters. If the related
default settings cannot meet your requirements, you can modify the
settings to obtain the data of required counters. In addition, you can
cancel the data collection of some counters to release system resources.

 Customizing Busy Hours

 You can set busy hour time segments. Alternatively, you can set busy hour
operation rules so that the system can automatically search for busy hours
accordingly

 Creating Object Groups

 Object groups are the basis of report management and KPI analysis. You
can group the concerned objects into a set such as a cell group, office
direction group, or RNC group. In this way, you can query the result of an
object group or the result of each object in an object group in the report
management, thus facilitating object management

 Customizing KPIs

 The PRS provides a large amount of system counters and supports the
function of customizing KPIs. You can customize KPIs based on the
obtained system counters as required. In addition, you can set the display
formats and thresholds for the KPIs.

 Creating Reports

Huawei Proprietary and Confidential Page 9


Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.
I Manager Performance Report System (PRS)

 You can create custom reports according to service requirements and network features

 Setting the Correlations Between Reports and Excel Templates

 You can set the correlation between a report and an .xls template, and
then export the queried report results to an .xls file. In addition, you can
use the formats, formulas, charts, and macro functions provided by Excel
to view reports

 Distributing Reports Periodically

 The PRS supports the scheduled generation and distribution of reports.


Reports can be generated at a specified time and then sent to a specified
email address or FTP server

b. Scheduled Report Management

 Report Management

 After the element management system (EMS) collects the data of


performance counter data from NEs, the data collection module of the PRS
periodically collects the data and saves it in a file, and imports the data in
the file to the report database. In this way, the PRS enables you to learn
the current network status by querying and monitoring the counter data.

i. Defining Report

Initially define the Root Directory for example named as “ Asim “ and start
Simple Report.
