have inter-modulation interference
Case 2: Perform offline inter-modulation detection to
examine antenna performance.
Without 13.0 solution, the antenna inter-modulation
test can only be performed by experts with
instruments, and the antenna need to be removed
from site.

Voice Fault Troubleshooting
The faults can only be found by complaints from customers
Many drive tests are needed and the problem may not appear
How to confirm the exact problem point after the problem appears?
End-user complaints of
silent call, echo call,
crosstalk, and noisy call
account for a large
proportion in the total
complaints. However, it is
very difficult to solve the
problems.
① Monitor: Automatically detect silent call and crosstalk, generate
alarms to help maintenance engineers find the problems.
② Fault locate: Locate the fault
through log analysis without
drive test.
③ Confirm: User resource binding and interface loopback can
confirm the exact problem point.
• The log contains details about the
fault call including IMSI, resources
occupied by the call.
• In BSS13.0, log automatic analysis
are supported in WebLMT.
CaseSilent call problem happens in a network. It can be found in the log that all faults occurred on one
E1. Through check the transmission, it is caused by transmission crossed pair.

Complaint Handling Solution
Item ResultNumber of handled complaints 16
Average time for complaint handling 4 hours
Average manpower 0.5 person/day
Percent of faults located 95%
Solution and effects
Ater using the solution in a network. the period for handling
one complaint is reduced from 2 person-day to 0.5 person-
day and complaint handling successful rate rises to 95%.
Status quo and problems
Complaint handling depend on large numbers
of drive test and manpower. Especially for
problems appears with low ratio, it’s difficult
to recur during test
Long time are needed to close a conplaint.
Handle complaints through remote analysis, reduce time and manpower and enhance customer satisfaction.
Note: License is mandatory.
Procedure for using the solution:
Query the CHR on the Nastar with user IMSI to
find the records related to the complaint
Analyze the abnormal records(access failure,
abnormal release and poor service quality)
Solve the problems according to analysis result.
Reply to the customer and close the issue

Complaint Handling CasesUser complaint: Abnormal call end occurs several times. The customer is dissatisfied with the network
quality.1. Query the recent call record of the
customer and find the dropped calls.
2. Analyze the calls and locate
the abnormal release reason.
3. Through analyzing the abnormal
signaling, Engineer found that the
problem is caused by air interface
connection failure.
4. Go on to analyze the MR data, Engineer
found that the RxQuality was bad and the
RxLevel was weak. According to the
location where the fault occured, weak
coverage was the root cause. The problem
was solved after adjusting the antenna of
the neighboring sites.

VIP Customer Care Solution
Procedures for implementing the solution:
① Register the VIP customers in Nastar;
② Regularly view the report of VIPs.
③ Analyze and solve the problems shown in the report.
The solution is based on CHR.
The trend of service KPIs can be measured by VIP customer
and VIP customer group. Through analyzing the KPIs,
engineers can find service problems happened to VIP, and
can solve the problem quickly.
SolutionStatus quo and problems
Difficult to identify potential VIP service
problems. Therefore, VIP may be more and
more dissatisfied with the network when some
problem occurs.
Once a VIP complains, large quantity of
resources(manpower ,time) will be required
and the customer may not be satisfied with
results.
Monitor VIP service quality and solve problems before complaints to enhance VIP satisfaction.
Note: License is needed.

Cases for VIP Care• Background: During routine VIP KPI analysis, engineers find call drop rate of a VIP customer group
increased in the passed few days.2. Analyzing the call records, engineers find that the RxLevel is weak, which may be caused by weak coverage.
4. Perform drive test at the location where call drop occurred and
confirm that the call drop was caused by weak coverage. After
adjusting the angle of antenna, the problem is solved.
1. Query VIP group KPI and find the recent call drop rate is far below the standard.
3. Locate the cells where call drop occurred
and engineers find that the distance between
cells 9313 and 9318 is far.

iSStar Cases
Application of iSStar Solution
Good Bad
Background: The radio channels of network are congested during holidays and busy hours. To reach the balance between quality and capacity, we need to dynamically change the radio channel type adjust threshold.
Traditional solution:Network optimization engineers regularly analyze the traffic statistics of radio channels. Based on the states changing
between busy and idle, engineers constantly adjust the TCH type adjust threshold.
Problem: The traffic statistics analysis and manual adjustment takes long time, the effects of adjustment are
always delayed, which affects the service quality.
① Analyze the trend of
historical traffic change
to adjust the threshold
② Develop iSStar scripts to
analyze the traffic
statistics of occupied
channels in real time
③ The iSStar regularly runs
scripts and automatically
adjusts NE’s parameters.

Maintenance Mode Management
Monitor the NE at project scenario Independently
to avoid large amounts of alarms affect normal
maintenance.
Alarm Correlation & Oscillation Alarm
Suppression
Help engineers focus on important alarms and
reduce alarm quantity
Threshold Alarm
Set the threshold for reporting alarm due to
abnormal KPIs. Alarms will be
automatically generated
once the KPIs reach the threshold.
AlarmSolutionStatus quo and Problems
Increased alarms in project scenario
Alarms numbers increase sharply in project
scenario, for example: transmission capacity
expansion , BTS adjustment between ports
Excessive alarms in routine
maintenance scenario
A fault results in multiple alarms
Many intermittent alarms
Fault without alarm
No alarms are generated when some faults occur,
and the problem cannot be found quickly.

Maintenance Mode Management
Benefit Equipment state monitoring is not affected while some elements are in project scenario.
Solution and effectsStatus quo and problems
In project scenario, too many alarms
overwhelm normal major alarms.
Project scenario equipment alarms are
reported and managed separately.
Note: License is needed.
So many alarms form NE A, where are the alarms from NE B?
The NEs at project scenario are
monitored independently.
Engineers can decide if the alarms
should be reported to NMS

Alarm Correlation & Intermittent Alarm Suppression
Benefits
Focus on root alarms to help handle faults quickly
Reduce the amount of intermittent alarms to improve the efficiency of alarms
告警相关性
Intermittent Alarm Suppression
The intermittent alarms are filtered by this solution instead of reporting
all alarms. In some networks, alarms are reduced by 67% ratio after
implement the solution.
The alarm is not reported and lasts for only 7s.
The alarm is reported and lasts for 105s.
So many alarms happen at same time, which one should be handled first?
Alarm correlation:
Only alarms representing root causes are displayed; the child-alarms
are shielded. For major child-alarms that must be displayed, their
parent-alarms are also displayed to help solve the fault quickly.
Solution and effectsStatus quo and problems
One fault results in multiple alarms
Many intermittent alarms, for example:
E1 transmission intermittent
disconnection
Note: License is not needed.

Threshold Alarm
No alarms generated when
KPI abnormal (such as high
call drop rate); engineers have
to “WAIT” for the complaints
from end users.
Much manpower is needed
for routine KPI monitoring
Too much information must
be analyzed to confirm the
fault scope.
Set thresholds for abormal KPIs in
M2000. Once KPIs are abnormal, alarms
are generated automatically.
When an alarm is generated, engineers can respond to it quickly before user complains.
Benefits
Automatically monitor key KPIs to find service problem quickly and avoid user complaints,
especially effective for faults without BSS equipment alarms(For example: caused by
interference, other NEs and so on ).
Solution and effectsStatus quo and problems
Note: License is not needed.
