Manual MOS Test

The Voice Quality and Benchmarking Device is used

for Manual MOS test, where PESQ and POLQA

algorithms are supported.

In a voice quality test, users may manually call a

terminal, and Pilot Pioneer may initiate the PESQ or

POLQA MOS test to obtain the relevant MOS score.

This function is provided for traditional Circuit

Switched (CS) voice call tests and other Internet

Protocol (IP) based call tests such as VoLTE.


VSNR Algorithm for Manual MOS Test

The Video Stream Non-Reference

(VSNR) algorithm is added in this version.

This is a non-reference based algorithm

for video streaming quality measurement.

This function is only for Manual MOS

tests.


Force Functions and New Data Format

The data in the .ddib format can be

partitioned in this version.The .ddib format

is one of the supported data formats in Pilot

Pioneer.

The force function is improved in this

version. Cell lock in WCDMA, and band

and cell lock in LTE can be supported with

Samsung Note3 N9008s and G5306.


Report Task Monitor

The Report Task Monitor function is

added to check the progress and

completion of each statistics report

task.


Grey Background in the Map Window

In the Map window, users

have the option to render the

background in grey to highlight

the test.


TCP/IP Sniffer for PBM Service Test

TCP/IP sniffer is supported during PBM

service test, to facilitate data analysis.

There are three kinds of TCP/IP modes:

• All: to sniff the entire data.

• Headers only: to sniff only the frame

header and the last ten bytes all services.

• Optimized: to sniff the entire protocol

packet and the first data packet for FTP

and PBM service tests.


Parameter Categorization Based on QCI

Parameters are categorized based on QoS Class

Identifier (QCI), which help users to check KPIs

based on different services.


Project Wizard

Users may enable the Project

Wizard function for easy

configuration (e.g. collection

protocol, display mode) based on

test scenarios when they need to

create a new project.

This Project Wizard may directly

open a saved project.


Online Version Update and Software Bugs Feedback

The online software bugs feedback function is supported in

this version. Users may submit any detected software bugs

to DingLi, which will help us to effectively collect and

prioritize bug fixes in a timely manner.

Users may choose Help > Check

Version to check the latest software

version and perform online update as

required.


LTE CA Directory Added to the Navigation Pane

LTE Carrier Aggregation (CA) directory,

which consists of CA Basic Info, CA

Cell Info Detail, CA Serving Cell Info,

and CA Throughput, is added to the

navigation pane. This helps users to

check LTE Carrier Aggregation (CA)

information.


Improvements on Scanner Test Interface

The output and display interface

for Scanner test has been

improved and unified for each

network technology.


Data Insight (Pilot Pioneer Expert)

• Using the collected test data and cell site files,

Data Insight is used to locate problems in the

tested networks by analyzing sampling points,

events, parameters, etc. Users may set different

analysis conditions for different scenarios, and

filter analysis results to locate problems on

serving and neighbor cells, events, handover,

parameters, etc.

• This analysis function is supported for LTE

network technology.

• The analysis results can be displayed by Table

and Map, and can be exported into .txt and

.csv formats.


MO/MT Union Analysis (Pilot Pioneer Expert)

MO/MT Union analysis is added in this version to

analyze the complete call details between MOC

and MTC calls

This function is used to analyze:

• RF parameters

• Call messages

• Call events

• Call delay

as well as to locate potential network problems

(e.g. blocked call, dropped call, etc.).

All 2/3/4 G network technologies are supported.


Delay Analysis (Pilot Pioneer Expert)

• Delay Analysis is added in this version to analyze the

service test based on reported events or messages'

sequence. For example, a Call Delay means the actual

duration between the call request and call connection has

exceeded the specified time. This may affect users'

experience, so it is an important reference for network

quality verification. Users may define the conditions for the

analysis, such as message or event order, counts,

threshold, and filter conditions.

• All 2/3/4 G network technologies are supported.

• The analysis results can be displayed by Map, Table,

Chart, and report. Analysis information can be

synchronized to the Event, Message, and Map windows.


Extended Coverage Analysis (Pilot Pioneer Expert)

• If the cell site antenna is too high or the pitch

angle is too small, the actual network coverage

may exceed the pre-defined distance and retain

a strong signal strength level, which leads to

unreasonable coverage. Extended Coverage

analysis is used to analyze and locate cells that

exceeded the pre-defined distance, optimize

network planning and overlapping coverage

issues.



Overshooting Analysis (Pilot Pioneer Expert)

• Overshooting Analysis is used to analyze the

cells that exceeded the predefined areas which

may lead to problems such as handover failure,

pilot pollution, no dominant cell, handover, etc.

• Users may filter and analyze the sampling

points that is outside the pre-defined conditions,

to identify network problem areas and provide

information for optimization activities.


• The analysis results can be displayed by Map,

and Table.


Antenna Feeder Reversed Analysis (Pilot Pioneer Expert)

Based on cell site database and sampling points, Antenna Feeder

Reversed Analysis is used to check if the antenna has been

connected inversely, including unidirectional, bidirectional, and

multidirectional inverse.

• Unidirectional: indicates that two antennas are connected to the

same antenna interface. For example, the antenna for cell 3 and

antenna for cell 1 are all connected to the interface for cell 1 (and

vice versa).

• Bidirectional: indicates that two antennas are inversely connected

to each other. For example, the antenna for cell 1 is connected to

the interface for cell 2 while the antenna for cell 2 is connected to

the interface for cell 1.

• Multidirectional: indicates that multiple antennas are connected in

crossed directions. For example, the antenna for cell 1 is

connected to the interface for cell 2, the antenna for cell 2 is

connected to the interface for cell 3, while the antenna for cell 3 is

connected to the interface for cell 1.


Antenna Feeder Reversed Analysis (Pilot Pioneer Expert)

This may help users to locate the cells which

antenna has been connectedly inversely.

CDMA, EVDO, WCDMA, and LTE network

technologies are supported.

The analysis results can be displayed by simple

diagram, Map, and Table.
