the uplink and downlink directions and in super wideband (SWB) and narrowband (NB) POLQA
measurement modes. Voice quality testing is supported with the latest Samsung terminals. Voice quality
testing can be performed between two Nemo Handy terminals or between a Nemo Handy terminal and
Nemo Server. The voice quality score (MOS) is calculated in real-time in Nemo Handy, and the individual
MOS scores are displayed on the screen during the call.

PEVQ-S video quality testing (optional)

PEVQ-S is an advanced framework algorithm developed by OPTICOM for full-reference video quality
analysis in adaptive streaming environments. It combines FR full-reference (FR), high-accuracy video
quality measurements with real-time measurements. Nemo Handy enables monitoring video quality with
PEVQ-S testing.

mScore testing (optional)

mScore testing in Nemo Handy performs a test against the mScore server in uplink or downlink. The test
takes a few seconds and measures the quality of data transfer.

TWAMP testing
TWAMP is a higher-layer protocol for UDP data transfer between a client and a server and is meant for
performance measurements of firewalls, routers, and IP gateways. Compared to other latency test
protocols, the advantage with TWAMP is the main protocol used for real-time applications. It is more
accurate (< 1 ms accuracy), it includes information about inter packet arrival time (Jitter) and it is widely
used in the industry. TWAMP also provides a way to generate different traffic profiles to emulate real end-
user data traffic. TWAMP testing is an optional feature.

measurements automatically using a calendar view. During the automated testing mode, the data views
are visible, but you cannot control the measurement or use forcing features. Log files can be
automatically sent to an FTP or HTTPS server. In automatic mode, Nemo Handy can also be remotely
controlled with SMS messages to start and stop measurements and to send the log files to the server.

IP packet capturing
Application-level data can be captured with Nemo Handy. The data is collected in a separate log file in
.pcap format. Pcap files can be processed with Nemo Outdoor, Keysight’s Nemo post-processing tools, or
Wireshark. By default, full IP capture, including IP and all the layers above, is logged. Pcap log files can
be very large if no filtering is applied. Therefore, it is practical to apply filtering to capture only the protocol
layers of interest. Capture filter rules are defined in the standard Wireshark filter format.

Indoor measurements

Nemo Handy provides indoor map support with an easy-to-use interface that includes zoom and pan
tools. Digital images can be imported to Nemo Handy and converted into map files (.tab), or you can take
a picture of a floorplan with the phone’s camera to be used in Nemo Handy as an indoor map. The
iBwave map format is also supported.

16
The scale of the map can be set based on a known distance on the map and the geodetic coordinates of
the map can be set based on two known coordinate positions. Nemo Handy also enables geocoding
indoor floorplans on top of Google Maps. You can modify existing floorplans that are not geocoded
directly from the Nemo Handy interface. The measurement route can be drawn on the map with markers
or by using GPS information.

In Nemo Handy, there are two ways to track the location of the Nemo Handy unit indoors and place
waypoints, i.e., markers, automatically. With the automated location mapping feature, a tracking module
is used to position the Nemo Handy unit and the measurement route is automatically displayed on the
device´s screen. The automatic indoor positioning feature enables placing markers automatically by
utilizing the camera and other sensors on the terminal to get the speed and position indoors when GPS is
not available. The faults in the network can be pinpointed accurately, ensuring reliable analysis of the
results, and allowing you to concentrate on the actual troubleshooting instead of on adding markers on
the map while walking.

All network parameters supported by the terminal’s mobile trace interface, including signaling messages,
are logged and made available for playback with Nemo Outdoor and for post-processing with Keysight’s
Nemo post-processing tools.

Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) testing is available with Nemo Handy. By using iBwave indoor plans
or BTS files you can see indoor small cell antennas and transmitters displayed on the indoor map. During
a walking test, a user-defined visual notification on the map indicates whether the current DAS antenna is
transmitting or not.

Nemo Handy enables the exchange of project information directly between the iBwave Planner and
Nemo Handy. The iBwave Planner and Nemo Handy both run on the same device using the IBWC file as
a common medium. This allows you to create a floor plan in the iBwave Planner, switch to Nemo Handy
for the measurements, and switch back to the iBwave Planner to create a preliminary design.

Advanced Indoor Analysis option

The Advanced Indoor Analysis option is an extra set of features on top of the existing Nemo Handy and
Nemo Walker license. The option enables creating and documenting indoor antenna locations and finding
problems with indoor (DAS or Small Cell) antennas.

When indoor antenna sites are built, you have the possibility to create the antenna files with Nemo
Handy´s BTS Editor. Optionally, serving cell or existing cell/antenna information can be used when
antennas are added. Also, macro network sites can be added. Testing of indoor antennas is crucial after
the installation to make sure that all antennas are transmitting properly and with correct signal strength.
Analysis of RF ingress shows how much the macro network is causing interference inside the building.

17
Outdoor measurements

Nemo Handy provides map support with an easy-to-use interface that includes zoom and pan tools. See
the measured route with color-coded parameter values in real-time on a live map and observe network
parameter values on the map. Outdoor route coloring is based on the selected parameter’s values, and
user-defined or pre-defined limits and color sets.

Nemo Handy offers an optional navigation application, a software-based solution in which a third-party
navigation application is used with Nemo Handy. The application provides you with turn-by-turn
instructions for your drive test campaigns, helping the field personnel to drive through places which they
are not familiar with. Repetitive drive tests can also be performed while ensuring that correct roads are
being measured. Nemo Cloud can be used to create and plan your measurement campaigns and routes.
Measurements can be remotely monitored in real time in Nemo Cloud, enabling you to react to alerts and
errors sent by the devices without delay. This feature requires Nemo Handy with the Nemo Cloud Work
Order option. Nemo Cloud is not mandatory though when creating routes as you can use any other
software that can produce a GPX file.

With Nemo Handy, you can view the base transceiver station (BTS) icons on a map. While performing
measurements, the BTS that the measurement device is connected to is highlighted with a user-defined
color. Furthermore, notification icons can be viewed on the route.

The map repository functionality in Nemo Handy enables you to select from which map repository the
map is downloaded.

All network parameters supported by the terminal’s mobile trace interface, including signaling messages,
are logged and made available for playback with Nemo Outdoor and for analysis and reporting with
Keysight’s Nemo post-processing tools.

18
HTML testing with real browser view
Nemo Handy enables HTML testing with real browser view. During HTML testing, you can monitor how
fast your web pages load. HTML testing is performed in an external Nemo Browser.

Recorded external application testing

With Nemo Handy it is possible to include external application testing as a script command by recording
touch events in the external application. When the script is run, Nemo Handy opens the external
application and performs the recorded functions as part of the script.

Forcing features
Nemo Handy supports band locking, LTE cell locking, system locking, scrambling code locking, carrier
locking (GERAN, UTRAN, EUTRAN), and Adaptive Multi-Rate (AMR) audio codec activation. The locks
are terminal specific. For more information, please check the device release notes for Nemo-specific
devices/firmware.

Notifications
Nemo Handy offers a set of audio notifications, notification icons, and pop-up messages that can notify
you of important measurement events. Customize the notifications to suit your measurement
requirements. Other notification features include individual notification activation/deactivation through the
Nemo Handy user interface and the notification history view screen.

Scripts
Expand your measurement capability with Nemo Handy by using script files to run measurements. When
a script is used, Nemo Handy makes voice and video calls, and FTP(S) and HTTP(S) data transfers
automatically. You can use scripts to automatically test HTML browsing, SMS messages, email send or
receive, external applications, and ping. Create conditional, system-triggered scripts with indefinite wait
periods that end when a specific system becomes active or when triggers initiate a voice call. With nested
scripts (scripts inside scripts) you can run complex automated measurements combining several scripts.
Create and edit scripts with Nemo Handy’s built-in script editor. If you activate the auto logging option,
when you start a script Nemo Handy will start logging automatically.

19
Playback
After a measurement ends, view measurement files immediately, or at a later time, easily with Nemo
Handy’s Playback feature. All data views are available for use in playback.

Logging and parameters

With Nemo Handy, you can capture all your RF and signaling data log files in the phone’s internal
storage. Use the Nemo Handy mobile as a regular phone while you run Nemo Handy logging in the
background. All network parameters supported by the terminal’s mobile trace interface, including
signaling messages, are logged, and made available for post-processing. The logged tracing results
contain all network parameters supported by the terminal’s mobile trace interface, including signaling
messages. Please note that Nemo Handy’s support for individual parameters varies according to the
terminal used. For a detailed list of parameters supported by a particular terminal model, please refer to
the Nemo Handy data sheet.

When the memory card is full, the log file recording feature automatically stops, and no more data can be
recorded. After logging has stopped, you can save the file with the default name, save the file with a new
name, or delete the file. You can also upload the log file to an FTP server directly from Nemo Handy. The
optional idle logging function enables logging outside actual measurement sessions.

Nemo Instant Report

Nemo Handy supports the optional Nemo Instant Report feature. After your measurements have been
conducted, this feature greatly enhances your ability to create a report in the field.

After your measurement session, instantly produce a report in PDF format. View it on your measurement
device or send it via email to your office or client. Upload the report to any remote server along with the
measurement files for archive purposes or for more detailed analysis.

20
Centrally controlled testing with Nemo Cloud

Nemo Cloud is a one-stop-shop platform for centrally controlled network testing. It allows network
operators to remotely operate Nemo Outdoor, Nemo Handy, Nemo Walker Air, Nemo Active Probe, and
Nemo Industry Probe test units and check their status.

The location and status of field units, including the driver’s contact details, are tracked in Nemo Cloud.
Configuration settings can be shared to and between all measurement units within the same project quickly
and easily. Nemo Cloud supports all devices and test protocols currently supported with Nemo tools.

A single user can remotely monitor and manage numerous Nemo measurement kits in the field thus
eliminating the need for two technicians in a test vehicle.

Measurement sessions are created and scheduled in Nemo Cloud, and they can be assigned for
individual measurement units or to groups of units. Field unit hardware configurations and test device
details can be verified remotely to avoid failed drive tests caused by malfunctioning hardware. In addition,
hardware failures, incorrect scripts and other issues can be spotted, and corrective measures can be
taken immediately instead of at the end of a one-week test campaign. By reacting without delay, both
time and money can be saved.

For locally controlled Nemo tools, Nemo Cloud provides file and configuration sharing between
measurement units. This reduces work before the start of the measurement project in the field and
eliminates human errors in local measurement unit configuration.

Post-processing
Nemo Handy produces measurement files in Nemo file format (.nmf, .nmfs) so measurement files do not
need to be converted before post-processing. Measurement data can be exported from Nemo Handy
either by using a data cable or a memory card. A detailed description of the Nemo file format is included
on the product USB. The file format description contains all recorded events and their parameters.

21
Full Measurement Functionality with New
Commercial Smartphones

Nemo Diagnostic Module can be carried in a compact hip belt with a wired connection to the phone.

The accelerated pace of new 5G smartphone launches creates the need to quickly test with new devices
in the network. Nemo Handy together with the external Nemo Diagnostic Module (NDM) enables full
measurement functionality with commercial off-the-shelf smartphones. No special firmware or rooting
is needed.

The measurement solution supports all Samsung, Qualcomm, and MediaTek chipset-based phone models
and is reusable over new phone models, hence there are no additional costs when changing the phone.
Up to two Nemo Handy units can be connected to the NDM at the same time. Note that the external
diagnostics port (USB) must be enabled on the used phone model and a driver on the NDM HW needs to
be available.

The license for voice quality testing using POLQA is associated with the NDM, therefore, the same
license can be used when changing the phone. Voice quality testing complies with ITU-T specified
recommendations for voice quality analysis of HD voice in 4G and 5G networks.

Voice quality testing is performed with the optional Nemo Intelligent Device Interface (NIDI). Both analog
and digital (Bluetooth) methods are supported.
