Introduction
This document contains the release notes of Nemo Analyze version 8.60, released in June 2021. The
document describes new functionalities and fixed issues.

Nemo Analyze is a powerful and versatile, cutting-edge analysis tool for performing benchmarking,
troubleshooting, and statistical reporting based on drive test data. Nemo Analyze is a desktop tool that
incorporates an innovative, low-maintenance database engine that has been designed and optimized
specifically for high-performance post-processing 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 – yet it is highly cost-effective, easy to set up and to use, and it scales to
meet the needs of organizations of all sizes.

Nemo Analyze offers support for all major wireless technologies, including GSM, GPRS, EDGE, WCDMA,
HSPA+, TETRA, TETRAPOL, TD-SCDMA, LTE, LTE CA, VoLTE, NB-IoT, LTE-M, Massive MIMO, and
5G NR (both scanner and UE measurements). Nemo Analyze supports all the Nemo product line test
tools. Measurement data in CSV (Character-Separated Value) ASCII format is also supported.

New features and improvements
Feature Details
- See the section “Parameter and KPI
Support for Nemo file format 2.46
improvements” for details
- BTS icon coloring possible for PCI or Channel
number (more options to be implemented later)
- It is now possible to filter BTSs based on RAT
Multiple improvements in Spreadsheet and/or channel
Report map plots - The map plots can now be “snapped to cell” in
order to make the layout design easier. Here the
map window will be snapped and connected to
the cell corner instead of just floating on the page

Parameter and KPI improvements


Feature Details
- Support for less than 1 ms round trip time and
jitter values and improved resolution. (RTT,
JITTER)
- Support for 5GMark application test protocol.
(DAA, DAF, DAC, DAD, DREQ, DCOMP,
DSUMMARY, DRATE, RTT)
- Support for J.343.1 video quality. (VQDL)
- Support for NR bands 13, 14, 18, 26, 29, 30, 46,
47, 48, 65, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, and 96.
- Support for NR cell scanning. (SCANCONFIG,
Support for Nemo file format 2.46
CELLSCAN)
- Support for NR packet session and attach
events. (PAA, PAF, PAC, PAD, GAA, GAF, GAC,
GAD)
- Support for NR SUL band information. (TXPC,
PLAIU, PHRATEU, RACHI)
- Support for NR SSB periodicity. (SCELL)
- Support for NR uplink power headroom. (TXPC)
- Support for NR uplink buffer status report. (BSR)
- Support for WLAN AMR rate reporting. (AMRS)
- The throughput KPIs with application filtering
(…selected application) are updated to also
Application filtered throughput include the transfer direction selection to better
parameters now also have a transfer align with the use case. For physical layer
direction filter throughputs, you must select both the application
and the direction to correctly filter out non-
relevant values.
- The IMS parameters and events that were
IMS KPIs have been updated to include
previously implemented for LTE, are updated to
IMS over NR
work for NR as well
- There is a new analysis KPI that returns the
New analysis KPI “NR Scanner cell

Other improvements and corrections
Item Support ticket

Handover events now have Cell ID available for GSM 88524, 96157

Line, Google Drive and TWAMP results, and cause values have been
added to CDR report

Serving system and band correction for NR 103088

Fixed filter lists updated to include PCell for NR

Fixed a problem where certain incomplete measurement files were


104061
not loading to database correctly
Fixed a problem where PDF export didn’t get maps correctly. This
was due to a Windows update, but there is now also a way to
105472
overcome that update issue to allow this to work even without
removing the Windows update.
Qualcomm and Samsung binary log decoders updated to the latest
available version
Multiple fixes and additions to CDR reports
- CDR voice report:
o renamed a second “A SRVCC” column to “B
SRVCC”
o Added “SRVCC HO attempts “CSFB fallback time”
columns.
o Validity check that “Paging time” can’t be < 0 (caused
by certain missing parameters from measurement
data)
104699, 103921,
o Decreased the correlation window time to prevent
false correlations
- CDR data report:
o Added “LTE carriers in EN-DC” column
o KPI description updates on the ReadMe sheet
o Fixed a problem where sometimes the RSRP Avg
value was not calculated
o Added “Total tech time from DREQ” column to have
another option and differentiate from total test time

Functionality notes and known issues


Note Details
If there are several users using the same Nemo Cloud connection in Nemo
Nemo Cloud friendly name must Analyze Enterprise environment and they have set the name of the Nemo
be the same for all users in Cloud connection to be different, some settings will disappear from other
Enterprise environment users. The names used for the Nemo Cloud connection should be set to
be same for all clients.

If the user has a license for Server Reports functionality, they can design
Server reports can only be run the reports even when connected to the local database, but there is no
with enterprise server connection way to test/run the reports over the local database, instead a connection to
an enterprise server is required.
There are certain reserved words Avoid (replace) reserved words “BTS”, “DATE” (and other SQL reserved
and special characters that can words in caps) and certain special characters (e.g. apostrophe) in
cause issues with file loading or measurement file names. Otherwise measurement may not be loaded
usage correctly, or there may be problems with workbooks and reports.
All measurement files must have All files loaded to Nemo Analyze must have unique filenames to avoid
unique names issues with file loading and usage.
When saving reports to PDF, they don’t scale well and cause i.e. blank
pages in the result PDF. This is because many of the pre-defined reports
Save as PDF scaling issue
are not optimized for such exporting. If there is a need to export to PDF, it
should be considered when designing the reports.
On some computers, maps are not correctly generated for reports,
instead a blue or black background is drawn for the area. This can
Blue or black map plot on be fixed in Registry Editor by adding a new DWORD
spreadsheet reports “WorkbookExportMode” with value 1 to
“Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Anite\Nemo
Analyze”
If user copies an event in Event Scheduler, deletes it and tries
Pasting a deleted event in Event
Scheduler causes a crash then to paste it to Event Scheduler, a crash may occur. Copy and
paste works fine if the event is not deleted before paste.
The current copy protection dongle HW and licenses were
introduced with Nemo Analyze 7.30. Nemo Analyze version 7.30
and higher are not compatible with the older license dongles.
Copy protection HW dongle Therefore, the new USB dongle must be available before updating
changed in Nemo Analyze 7.30 to Nemo Analyze version 7.30 or higher. Without the new USB
dongle, you will not be able to use Nemo Analyze version 7.30 or
higher. All fielded dongle keys and licenses must be migrated to a
new dongle if used with Nemo Analyze version 7.30 or higher.
