The HTTP set-up time is the time period needed to access

The FTP {download | Upload} Mean data Rate [Mbit/s] is the

Mobile Service Coverage Signal Strength =

Field Strength measurements (RSSI for 2G,

The attach failure ratio is the probability that a subscriber Attach failure ratio [%] = (Unsuccessful
cannot attach to the PS network. attach Attempts/all attach Attempts)X100

The attach set-up time is the time period needed to attach to

the PS network.

The PDP context activation failure ratio denotes the PDP context Activation Failure Ratio [%] =
probability that the PDP context cannot be activated. It is the (Unsuccessful PDP context activation
proportion of unsuccessful PDP context activation attempts attempts/All PDP context activation
and the total number of PDP context activation attempts. attempts)X100%

The PDP context activation time is the time period needed for
activating the PDP context.

The PDP context cut-off ratio is the probability that a PDP PDP context cut-off Ratio [%] = (PDP
context is deactivated without being initiated intentionally by context losses not initiated by the user/all
the user, allowing the network to deactivate the context after successfully activated PDP contexts) X

can reduce cost and time.Currently we take data from Mexico Square to Torhailoch

• The measurement is to be done by DT and it can be done by Argela and other CM tools.
• Drive test is done in Addis Ababa by selecting representative route.
• Drive test done on auto mode.
