 The KQI/KPI system for the Huawei-provided SEQ Analyst is a scientific calculation and
measurement system. For details, see the contents in the Calculation Formula and
Measurement Point column of each KQI/KPI.
 The cell information (2G cells, 3G service areas, and 4G cells) collected by the SEQ
Analyst is the end cell information obtained from the core network. The system cannot
obtain the cell update information only from the wireless network. As a result, the system
can fill the cell information collected from core network messages. The filled cell
information is inconsistent with actual data.

The KQIs/KPIs of NEs contain only signaling-plane KPIs and measured on their corresponding NEs.
The KQIs/KPIs in the SEQ Analyst are calculated based on the data collected from inter-NE interfaces
and counters measured at measurement points. The KQIs/KPIs of NEs are different from those of the
SEQ Analyst due to different measurement points of the NEs and SEQ Analyst.

2.1 Reference NEs for KQI/KPI Check


Table 7.1 lists the details about KQI/KPI check. Compare the KQIs/KPIs from interfaces
actually collected with the KQIs/KPIs on reference NEs.

Table 7.1 Reference NEs for KQI/KPI check


Data Reference NE
Collection
Interface

Gb/Iu-PS SGSN
Gn/Gp GGSN
S1-MME MME
S4/S11 SGW

The KQIs/KPIs of NEs contain only signaling-plane KPIs and measured on their corresponding NEs.
The KQIs/KPIs in the SEQ Analyst are calculated based on the data collected from inter-NE interfaces
and counters measured at measurement points. The KQIs/KPIs of NEs are different from those of the
SEQ Analyst due to different measurement points of the NEs and SEQ Analyst.

2.2 Iu-PS Interface

The KQIs/KPIs of NEs are different from those of the SEQ Analyst because the following KQI/KPI
measurement methods of the NEs and SEQ Analyst are different:
 NE messages: Number of requests = Number of successes + Number of Rejects (number of failures
for all causes)
 SEQ Analyst messages: Number of requests = Number of successes + Number of failures (number
of failures for standard SM causes + Number of failures for 996 User Detach + Number of failures
for 997 Iu connection Release + Number of failures without causes)

HUAWEI SEQ Analyst PS&EPC Basic Service IndicatorsPS&EPC Basic
Basic KPI Manual Service Indicators

Failure causes 996 and 997 are customized in the SEQ Analyst. For details, see the protocol description
information.
 996: Measure that the service fails upon receiving the detach request.
 996: Measure that the service fails upon receiving Iu release request or Iu release command.
Typically, the low activation success rate and low attach success rate on the Iu-PS or S1-MME interface
are related to these two causes. That is, the failures caused by non-SM causes are not used in calculating
the number of failures on NEs.

2.2.1 Attach Indicators


Definition
Attach indicators include GPRS attach, combined GPRS/IMSI attach, and other indicators.
Before accessing a packet switched (PS) network, a mobile station (MS) must send an attach
request to the serving GPRS support node (SGSN) to register with the PS network.

Indicator
Table 1.1 lists the PIs for indicators related to PS attach processes. To collect the required
data, the NetProbe3010 must be deployed.

Measurement Point

The service flow of S4-interface KPIs and that of S11-interface KPIs are similar. The measurement
points of S11-interface KPIs are described in this section as an example. The difference between the two
interfaces is that the S4 interface is the interface between the S4-SGSN and the SGW, the S11 interface
is the interface between the MME and the SGW.

Figure 1.1 shows the measurement points for Bearer Update indicators.
