1. General
1.1. What’s In This Manual

This book catalogs all data presented in TEMS Investigation Data Collection
and Route Analysis as well as all preconfigured presentation windows
supplied in the two applications.
Information elements in Data Collection and Route Analysis are covered in
separate chapters. The IEs are mostly the same in both applications, but
certain IEs as well as a number of entire IE categories are found only in Data
Collection. A further reason for providing separate listings is the large number
of minor differences between the applications in matters of naming,
organization of arguments, and so on. These differences arise from the more
sophisticated structuring of IEs in Route Analysis.
Information Element Support in Connectable Equipment

Some elements are presentable only with a subset of the connectable
devices. See the tables in chapter 5, page 303.
1.2. Conventions
For the sake of brevity the following conventions are used in this book:
• The Data Collection User’s Manual is referred to as “DC UM”.
• The Route Analysis User’s Manual is referred to as “RA UM”.
LZT 108 9987 R2A 1

2. Information Element
Categories
The information elements are divided into categories in the applications as

follows:
DC RA
Category Contents Section Section
Ref. Ref.
General • Elements reported by – 4.1

positioning equipment, and the
Time element. (In Data
Collection, these elements are
found in technology-specific
categories.)
GSM • Elements reported by GSM- 3.1 4.2

capable phones when in GSM
mode, including GPRS/EGPRS
elements and (where applicable)
WCDMA and TD-SCDMA
neighbor measurements.
• Elements from GSM scanning.
• Elements reported by GAN-
capable GSM phones when
connected to a GAN.

3. Information Elements in Data

Collection
The tables below list all information elements that can be presented by TEMS
Investigation Data Collection. For ease of reference, each category on the
Info Element tab is still covered in one single, alphabetically ordered list.
(Certain deviations from strict alphabetical order occur in the application in
order to achieve more logical orderings and groupings.) However, since the
number and diversity of the information elements are great, a special column
with codes is used in some tables to distinguish important subgroups among
the elements.

Chapter 3. Information Elements in Data Collection
3.1. GSM Information Elements
Properties of Information Elements: The Asterisk Column

In the column marked *, a set of codes is used to state conditions under
which an information element is
• valid: a non-trivial condition must be fulfilled for the element to be valid
• not valid: the element is normally valid, but in certain circumstances it is
not (code ends in “–”)
• extended compared to the simplest GSM case: the element sometimes
carries more information, for example when frequency hopping is used
(code ends in “+”)
If nothing is written in the asterisk column, the element is always valid
(provided it is supported by the device).
Code Meaning
c Valid if a cell file is loaded.
g Valid when running GPRS. Not valid for voice.
g+ The element is richer for (E)GPRS, in one of the following ways:

• more values, i.e. more arguments – e.g. C/I Best
• values have a more complex meaning – e.g. C/I Hopping
List (average over timeslots)
• larger range of possible values – e.g. Channel Type.
g– Not valid when running (E)GPRS.
ga Valid in GAN mode or for GAN-capable phones.
h Valid if frequency hopping is used.
LZT 108 9987 R2A 5

Code Meaning
h+ The element is richer if frequency hopping is used.

If frequency hopping is used, the element covers all channels in
the hopping list.
• No GPRS connection: One value for each channel
(arguments 0 through 63)
• GPRS: One value for each timeslot used on each channel
(arguments 0 through 64 · 8 – 1 = 511). Exception: C/I
Hopping List has only one value for each channel
(arguments 0 through 63).
If frequency hopping is not used, the element contains values
for the single channel employed.
• No GPRS connection: One single value (argument 0).
• GPRS: One value for each timeslot used on the channel
Example: C/I Best.
hc+ If frequency hopping is used, the element covers all channels in

the hopping list. One value for each channel (arguments 0
through 63).
No separate values for each timeslot for a GPRS connection.
Example: C/I Hopping List.
h– Not valid if frequency hopping is used.
hs Valid when running HSCSD. Not valid for voice.
hs+ The element is richer for HSCSD, in one of the following ways:
• more values, i.e. more arguments – e.g. C/I Best
hs– Not valid when running HSCSD.
p Reported by positioning equipment.
s Reported from GSM RSSI scanning.
6
Code Meaning
si (Reported from interference scanning with a Sony Ericsson

GSM phone.) This function is no longer supported in any
connectable phone, but the information elements are retained in
this description since old logfiles with interference scan data can
still be replayed in the application.
ss Reported from GSM spectrum scanning.
“Full” and “Sub” Values

Information elements with “Full” in their names are calculated on all blocks.
Information elements with “Sub” in their names are calculated only on the
blocks known to be sent also when downlink DTX is active (in each 104-
multiframe, one TCH block with SID information and one SACCH block).
GSM RxLev Units

GSM RxLev units are defined in 3GPP 45.008, section 8.1.4.
Information Element Table
IE Name Range/Unit Arg * Description
Adjacent –10 ... 100 1 ... 4 h– Signal strength of adjacent

RxLev GSM RxLev channel.
units
Argument:
1: Serving cell –2 (–400 kHz)
3: Serving cell +1 (+200 kHz)
Invalid if frequency hopping is
used.
Adjacent –120 ... –10 1 ... 4 h– Same as Adjacent RxLev but in

RxLev (dBm) dBm dBm. Invalid if frequency
hopping is used.
LZT 108 9987 R2A 7

Adjacent Scan 0, 2 – Use of C/A measurements in

phone. See DC UM section
16.2.4.4.

3.2. WCDMA Information Elements

This category contains all information elements reported by UEs in WCDMA
mode, including measurements on GSM neighbors performed while in
WCDMA mode.
The WCDMA scanning elements are also found here, as well as
miscellaneous other items (e.g. time, positioning information).

In the column marked *, a set of codes is used to identify certain groups of
information elements:
Code Meaning
c Requires that a cell file has been loaded.
dv Reported when running DVB-H.
ne GSM neighbor measurements reported by the UE while in

WCDMA mode.
ns Reported from network search scanning.
p Reported by positioning equipment, or requires positioning data

to make sense.
pi Reported from pilot scanning.
rs Reported from RSSI scanning.
ss Reported from spectrum scanning.
ts Reported from SCH timeslot scanning.
Notes on Quantities Denoting Signal Power

Below is a list of the signal power and power ratio quantities that appear in
the names of information elements.
• Eb: Scrambling code energy per bit.
• Ec: Scrambling code energy per chip.
58
• Es: Scrambling code energy per chip (as measured by a scanning device
during the SCH timeslot scan).
• No: Total energy per chip (as measured by a UE).
• Io: Total energy per chip (as measured by a scanning device).
• Ec/No: Signal-to-noise ratio (as measured by a UE). See 3GPP 25.215,
section 5.1.5. Compare No above.
• Ec/Io: Signal-to-noise ratio (as measured by a scanning device).
Compare Io above.
• SIR: Signal-to-interference ratio as measured on the DPCCH. See 3GPP
25.215, section 5.2.2.
• RSCP: Received signal code power, identical with Ec: see 3GPP 25.215,
section 5.1.5.
• RSSI: Received signal strength indicator, identical with No: see 3GPP
25.215, section 5.1.5.
Eb and Ec are related by the equation
that is,
Multiple-antenna vs. Single-antenna Information Elements

Certain information elements occur in variants with one of the suffixes “per
Antenna” (with argument), “Antenna 1”, “Antenna 2”, “Sum”. Such IEs are
populated for MIMO, and the suffixes refer to the use of multiple antennas in
the MIMO technology. The corresponding IEs without a suffix are populated in
the single-antenna case.

remarks
The ordinal (“1st”, etc.) refers to a UMTS frequency. Separate sets
of Finger elements are provided for the full number of UMTS
frequencies that can be scanned simultaneously.
The Motorola E1000 may report finger measurements on a
number of different channels (see the elements Finger ... Position
Type); the other devices that support finger measurements always
report them on the CPICH.
The “Finger” and “Finger Position” series of elements contain the
same data. The latter series consists of arrays of size 2560
corresponding to the sequence of chips in a radio frame timeslot,
with the received finger information positioned at the correct
indices. These elements are provided for bar chart plotting. The
Finger Slot Pos element is of course not needed in the Finger
Position series and is consequently absent from it.

Sc Best Cell Text 1 ... 512 pi Pilot scanning: Deduced name

Name c of the cell that uses each
p scanned scrambling code.
The algorithm determining the
cell name takes as input the SC
number, the UARFCN, and the
position reported. It searches
the cell file for cells with
matching SC number and
UARFCN within a 50 km radius.
If multiple matches are found,
the cell closest to the position is
selected.
If no positioning data is
available, the information
element will still be presented,
but the cell names may then of
course be wrong. The algorithm
in this case simply picks the first
cell in the cell file with matching
SC number and UARFCN.
Invalid if no cell file is loaded.
Sc Best Cell 1 ... 3 1 ... 512 pi Pilot scanning: Categorization of

Type c the cells that use the scanned
p scrambling codes.

In the “Sc Best” element, this
categorization is applied for
each UMTS frequency, so there
will be one “1” with associated
“2”s for each frequency.
Invalid if no cell file is loaded.

3.7. WiMAX Information Elements
Notes on CINR
The number of samples on which to base the CINR mean values and
standard deviations is set in the WiMAX scan setup dialog (DC UM section
14.3.1, “Number of Samples for Stats”). However, this figure only serves as a
guideline to the scanner; in practice the scanner may on some occasions use
a lower number of samples as input to the statistics calculation. This number
is reported in the “Samples Taken” elements (see below).
Note that as power level fluctuations become minute, the standard deviation
likewise approaches zero and hence tends towards negative infinity when
expressed in dB. A large negative number has been used as the lower
endpoint for the standard deviation range.

3.8. Data Service Testing Information Elements

This section lists the information elements in the “Data” category, i.e. those
obtained when performing data service testing. The “Data” category contains
two kinds of elements:
• Application-level data service measurements. In the PC, these are taken
in the Winsock interface. Application-level measurements reflect the
performance experienced directly by the user, as opposed to the
performance at lower levels in the protocol hierarchy (RLC, LLC, RLP,
etc.).
• Statistics on the dial-up connection obtained from Microsoft’s Remote
Access Service (RAS), i.e. Dial-up Networking. Remember that not all
data services are run over a dial-up connection (see DC UM section
15.11).
The “Data” information elements are mostly independent of the bearer
service used (packet-switched or circuit-switched). A number of elements are
however bearer-specific.

3.9. Uplink (MTR) Information Elements

This section lists the information elements in the “GSM Uplink” category, i.e.
those originating from MTR files. These information elements are found only
in Data Collection.
The GSM Uplink category includes further elements besides those listed,
including RxLev and RxQual (Full and Sub) for both uplink and downlink. All
such elements have precisely the same ranges and meanings as the
corresponding elements in section 3.1, and so they have been omitted here.
No uplink information elements are valid when running GPRS/EGPRS.
No uplink data can be recorded in MTR files when running a data service.

In the column marked *, a set of codes is used to state conditions under
which an information element is
• valid: a non-trivial condition must be fulfilled for the element to be valid
• not valid: the element is normally valid, but in certain circumstances it is
not (code ends in “–”)
• extended compared to the simplest GSM case: the element sometimes
carries more information, for example when frequency hopping is used
(code ends in “+”)
If nothing is written in the asterisk column, the element is always valid and is
reported by all supported phones.
Code Meaning
c Valid if a cell file is loaded.
g Valid when running GPRS. Not valid for voice.
g+ The element is richer for (E)GPRS, in one of the following ways:

• more values, i.e. more arguments – e.g. C/I
g– Not valid when running (E)GPRS.
LZT 108 9987 R2A 181

Code Meaning
h+ The element is richer if frequency hopping is used.

If frequency hopping is used, the element covers all channels in
the hopping list.
• No GPRS connection: One value for each channel
(arguments 0 through 63)
• GPRS: One value for each timeslot used on each channel
(arguments 0 through 64 · 8 – 1 = 511). Exception: C/I
Hopping List has only one value for each channel
If frequency hopping is not used, the element contains values
for the single channel employed.
• No GPRS connection: One single value (argument 0).
• GPRS: One value for each timeslot used on the channel
Example: C/I.
hc+ If frequency hopping is used, the element covers all channels in

the hopping list. One value for each channel (arguments 0
through 63).
No separate values for each timeslot for a GPRS connection.
Example: C/I Hopping List.
hs Valid when running HSCSD. Not valid for voice.
hs+ The element is richer for HSCSD, in one of the following ways:
• more values, i.e. more arguments – e.g. C/I
hs– Not valid when running HSCSD.
182
“Full” and “Sub” Values

Information elements with “Full” in their names are calculated on all blocks.
Information elements with “Sub” in their names are calculated only on the
blocks known to be sent also when downlink DTX is active (in each 104-
multiframe, one TCH block with SID information and one SACCH block).

Multiple-antenna vs. Single-antenna Information Elements

Certain information elements have attributes as follows.
• Single Antenna: Only one antenna used (no MIMO).
• Antenna 1, Antenna 2, Sum: These attributes are applicable when
MIMO is used and allows extraction of values for either or both of the
antennas employed.
Note that the MIMO vs. non-MIMO distinction is expressed differently in the
attributes of certain other IEs.

4.3.3. Finger Info

The Rake fingers are not sorted by signal strength; they come in the order
they are reported. Rake fingers are reported separately for each UMTS
frequency.
The Motorola E1000 may report finger measurements on a number of
different channels (see the element Finger Position Type); the other devices
that support finger measurements always report them on the CPICH.
The “Finger” and “Finger Position” series of elements contain the same data.
The latter series contains arrays of size 2560 corresponding to the sequence
of chips in a radio frame timeslot, with the received finger information
positioned at the correct indices. These elements are provided for bar chart
plotting. The Finger Slot Position element is of course not needed in the
Finger Position series and is consequently absent from it.
Two arguments are used. The first represents the UMTS frequency; the
second represents either the Rake finger number (“Finger” series) or the chip
index (“Finger Position” series).

“Sc” IEs: The attributes for these elements have the following meanings:
General
• Not sorted: Scrambling codes are ordered by index (no
remarks
ranking). Lowest index first.
• Strongest: Scrambling codes are ranked by Aggr Ec/Io in
descending order, for each scanned UMTS frequency
separately.
• Weakest: Scrambling codes are ranked by Aggr Ec/Io in
ascending order, for each scanned UMTS frequency
separately.
• Best (among all frequencies): Scrambling codes from all
scanned UMTS frequencies are ranked by descending Aggr
Ec/Io in a single list. The first argument is always 1 in this
case.
The arguments have the following meanings:
• Argument 1: UMTS frequency. Frequencies are ordered by
ascending UARFCN. This argument is not used with the
attribute “Best” (see above).
• Argument 2: Scrambling code. Scrambling codes are ordered
as specified by the chosen attribute (see above). Some “Sc”
elements are not differentiated for scrambling codes and
therefore lack this argument.
Sc Aggr Eb/Io –10 ... 21 1 ... 4; Pilot scanning: The aggregate code
dB 1 ... 512 power of the scrambling code (Eb,
energy per bit) relative to the total
signal power in the channel (Io).
See also general remarks above.
Sc Aggr Ec –130 ... –25 1 ... 12; Pilot scanning: The aggregate code
dBm 1 ... 512 power (energy per chip) of each
scanned scrambling code. The
aggregate code power is a measure of
the total signal power (distributed
around the main peak due to multipath
propagation) that is above the PN
threshold.

Sc Aggr-Peak 0 ... 90 1 ... 4; Pilot scanning: The difference between

Ec dB 1 ... 512 the aggregate code power and peak
code power.
Sc Cell Name Text 1 ... 12; Pilot scanning: Deduced name of the
1 ... 512 cell that uses each scanned
scrambling code.
The algorithm determining the cell
name takes as input the SC number,
the UARFCN, and the position
reported. It searches the cell file for
cells with matching SC number and
UARFCN within a 50 km radius. If
multiple matches are found, the cell
closest to the position is selected.
If no positioning data is available, the
information element will still be
presented, but the cell names may
then of course be wrong. The
algorithm in this case simply picks the
first cell in the cell file with matching
SC number and UARFCN.
Requires cell file and positioning.
260
Sc Cell Type 1 ... 3 1 ... 12; Pilot scanning: Categorization of the

1 ... 512 cells that use the scanned scrambling
codes.
1: The cell with the strongest Aggr Ec.
2: All neighbors of the “1” cell, as
indicated by the cell file.
3: All other cells.
If the “Best” attribute is set, this
categorization is still applied for each
UMTS frequency, so there will be one
“1” with associated “2”s for each
frequency.
Requires cell file and positioning.
Sc Delay 0 ... 255 1 ... 4; Pilot scanning: Time in chips between

Spread chips 1 ... 512 the first and last Ec/Io peak that is
above the PN threshold. This is a
measure of the signal spreading due to

4.4.19. Scan Data
4.4.19.1. Pilot Scanning

The attributes for these elements have the following meanings:
• Not sorted: Pilots are ordered by PN offset (no ranking). Lowest PN offset
first.
• Strongest: Pilots are ranked by descending peak Ec/Io for each scanned
RF channel separately. Elements that are not differentiated for pilots lack
this argument.
• Weakest: Pilots are ranked by ascending peak Ec/Io for each scanned RF
channel separately. Elements that are not differentiated for pilots lack this
argument.
• Best (among all frequencies): Pilots from all scanned RF channels are
ranked by descending peak Ec/Io in a single list. The first argument is
always 1 in this case.
The arguments have the following meanings:
• Argument 1: RF channel. RF channels are ordered by ascending index.
This argument is not used with the attribute “Best” (see above).
• Argument 2: PN offset. Pilots are ordered as specified by the chosen
attribute (see above). Some elements are not differentiated for pilots and
therefore lack this argument.

5. Information Element Support

in Phones and Scanners
These tables are valid for Data Collection and Route Analysis alike.
Elements derived from positioning equipment are not included in the tables.
In the Information Elements column, <string>* means all IEs beginning with
<string>.
A gray checkmark means that the IE support is restricted to a subset of the
devices in the column; see the accompanying footnote for details.
The tables include certain devices that are no longer connectable in this
version of TEMS Investigation; these devices are printed in non-boldface.
They are retained here since old logfiles recorded with the devices can still be
replayed in the application. There also exist information elements which are
unique to one or more of these devices.

Nevertheless, information elements supported only by TCC protocol
terminals remain in the application and are kept in this table, since old
logfiles recorded with these terminals can still be replayed.
c. Gray checkmark: Supported only by Z750i among these phones. Also
note generally that what AQM elements are obtained depends on what
hardware is used at the other end: Call Generator with analog calling
card, Call Generator with digital calling card, or an MRU. For full details,
consult the document “AQM in TEMS Products (Including PESQ)”.

f. Note on Nokia phones: VTQI is based on transport channel BLER. Nokia

phones do not report BLER for individual transport channels but only an
average over all channels (see Trsp Ch BLER, DL (Log). This means that
VTQI scores based on Nokia reports will not be accurate if further
transport channels are used in parallel with the one used for the video call.

Chapter 6. Notes on Plain-text Decoding of Mode Reports
6. Notes on Plain-text Decoding

of Mode Reports
6.1. TPC Info per Cell (Sony Ericsson)

While in soft handover, the phone is power controlled jointly by all members
of the active set. Power control commands are received on the DPCCH.
Certain Sony Ericsson phones deliver two mode reports that are relevant in
this context, TPC Info and DPCCH DL. TPC Info shows the power control
commands from each cell in the active set separately, whereas the DPCCH
DL report gives the final power control decision obtained by combining and
weighting the input from all active set members.
The plain-text decoding of the TPC Info mode report represents the power
control commands from each cell by a string of letters as follows:
• Q = Not valid: The cell was not part of the active set at this time.
• U = Up: The cell ordered the phone to raise the power.
• D = Down: The cell ordered the phone to lower the power.
• C = Skip: The phone was in compressed mode at this time, measuring on
a different UARFCN or on GSM.
• N = No change: No power control command, power unchanged.
Since the power control frequency is 1500 Hz, each letter in the string
represents 1/1500 of a second.

7. Predefined Events
Here all predefined events are listed and explained, along with any extra
information provided in the application (see section 8.3.4). All cause values
are decoded into plain-text format in the presentation. Not all of the extra
information listed in the table is necessarily included every time the event
occurs.
The descriptions of how events are triggered are not always exhaustive. In
exceptional cases, an event may be triggered by a message not mentioned
here.
Event symbols shown are default symbols in Data Collection; they can be
changed in line charts (DC UM section 24.4.3) and maps (DC UM section
26.5.4). In Route Analysis the symbols used for events are fixed.

7.2. GSM/WCDMA/TD-SCDMA Events

Events in this category are generated by phones supporting at least one of
the technologies GSM, WCDMA, and TD-SCDMA.
The following is to be noted:
• For GAN-capable phones, call events in GAN mode are triggered in
precisely the same manner as in GSM mode. This is achieved by
unpacking Direct Transfer messages and extracting embedded GSM
Layer 3 messages.
• For TD-SCDMA phones a subset of the listed events can be generated (in
both TD-SCDMA and GSM mode). The extra information given in the
table is rarely provided with events originating from TD-SCDMA phones.
The asterisk column uses the following codes:
Code Meaning
c Requires that a cell file has been loaded.
e Generated in EDGE mode.
g Generated in GSM mode.
g w Generated in GSM and WCDMA mode.
ga Generated by GAN-capable phone interacting with a GANC.
sg Generated during GSM scanning.
