Formula Editor ’Deleting the category’

• Select or use right mouse button (inside KPI directory!)

• There will be a warning that all KPIs and subcategories inside the chosen category will be deleted.

KPI cannot exist in the database, if any element of factor used in its formula doesn’t exist anymore.

Therefore when deleting the KPI used in other KPIs, all those KPIs will be deleted






Formula Editor ’Adding a new KPI’


• Insert name of KPI

• Insert formula of KPI

• Optional description and author can be added and format can be selected.

• button checks, whether the inserted data (label and formula) have the right format.

• With the button the Live syntax check option is activated. This mechanism is able to verify the

correctness of the formula on the fly

• button saves the new formula and updates Tree and List tabs.

• button prevents creation of the KPI.

• Multi paste feature eases e.g. the creation of formulas, adding up several arguments.






Formula Editor ’Multi paste feature’

• Multi paste feature eases e.g. the creation of formulas, adding up several arguments.

• Switch to List tab and select the desired elements from the list.

• After the selection is complete right click any of the selected elements and choose appropriate option from

the Multi paste menu.

• Following functions are available






Formula Editor ’Editing the KPI’

• This function can be used to update or to modify existing KPIs.


• Change appropriate fields of the KPI in the panel.

• There are two possibilities to finish:

• the new KPI will be created (label has to be changed!) and the edited KPI will not be

changed

• the edited KPI will be saved with the new inserted values

’Removing the KPI’

• Select or use right mouse button (click on the KPI to be removed!)

• There will be a warning that the related KPI as well as all related KPIs using this one will be deleted.

KPI cannot exist in the database, if any element of factor used in its formula doesn’t exist anymore.

Therefore when deleting the KPI used in other KPIs, all those KPIs will be deleted






Functionality ’Import / Export of KPIs’

• Import and Export of KPIs allows transferring and exchanging created KPIs between different machines

• Export functionality guarantees, that all KPIs necessary to calculate the given KPI are in the export file

• The process of KPI import checks the following parameters:

• The possible actions after the parameter import are:







In this case all KPIs will be imported







No difference in the formula.In this case KPI will be ignored









• To export the KPIs, the user has to perform the following steps:

Note: User doesn’t have to check which

KPIs are used in the KPI(s) to be

exported. The application will

automatically export all KPIs necessary

to calculate the chosen KPI(s)







Functionality ’KPIs NE Aggregation’

• User can choose to aggregate the data from lower network element levels to higher levels in DWH

• The aggregation rules are predefined and cannot be changed

• Currently all counters are aggregated to higher network element levels

• By default aggregation is switched off, due to performance reasons

• Aggregation to higher network element levels makes it possible to see

the measurements from lower level (e.g. TRX) already aggregated to

higher level (e.g. BSC).

• The aggregation is made for all consecutive levels i.e. from TRX, to

BTS, to BTSM, to BSC. The user can see the TRX measurements on

any selected level (higher than the original).

• The counters displayed in the grid will have the prefix of the object level

the data was aggregated to.

• In the attributes browser all pre-aggregated measurements are

available under original category of original counter object.

• Example: measurements aggregated to BTSM level will have prefix:

BTSM_INTRA_HOATT

(original counter on BTS level: INTRA_HOATT)







• To aggregate KPIs, user should use Report -> New report -> Other -> KPI Aggregation Converter or

KPI-> KPI Aggregations Converter

• After launching the converter a new report window will appear:







• Conversion of the KPIs can be performed by the following steps:

1. Selecting the source KPI file by clicking the Browse button and loading the KPI from the File

with Load button

2. After loading user has to select the MOC, to which the wants to aggregate the KPIs (e.g.

BTS, BSC…) Select button has to be clicked to proceed to the next step.

3. User should select the KPIs which he wants to convert to the selected MOC level. In the

Attribute browser can be selected and converted by clicking the button.

4. Then user should use Export button to export the new generated KPIs to an output file. This

file can be used to import the converted KPIs. Afterwards KPI Aggregation Converter reportcan be closed.

5. To use the new aggregated KPIs, user should import them. After the import process is done,

the new KPIs are ready for usage.







• The converted KPIs are always stored under the MOC to which they were aggregated. Appropriate

subdirectories are created, which contain the KPIs converted from lower network element levels.

For example conversion of TRX level KPIs to BSC level will result in creation of TRX_Aggregated

subdirectory under the BSCx KPI directory.

• The converted KPIs name will have the target MOC prefix and the source KPI name e.g.

TRX_AVAIL converted to BSC level will have the following name:

‘TargetMOCprefix_’ + ‘original name’ = BSC_TRX_AVAIL

• When the user decides to convert multiple KPIs, from different network element levels to the higher

one, the appropriate subdirectories will be created under KPI directory of the target MOC. KPIs

from BTS level will be held under the BTS_Aggregated subdirectory and so on.





Report ’Main functionality’

• To call reporting functionality you can use

• button from toolbar level

• From menu level by choosing Report -> New Report

• After choosing New Report a window with blank report will appear

• It consists of three main panels:

Define report content (selection of parameters)

Choose DWH slot

Selection of the network elements for the analysis

Select time range and granularity






Report ’Attribute Browser’

• The Attribute browser provides a GUI for browsing through the object model for selection purposes

• It consists of the following information:

List of objects available in the DWH project

List of logical groups (categories) for every object

List of available CM attributes, PM measurements and KPIs for every object







• In this browser the full set of all available parameters for all available objects appears.

• This browser has a tree view, all objects are treated equally – any information about hierarchy is NOT

included.

• Every item type reflects different type of data:


A t N t i i






• Attribute browser functions:

Select/unselect any of the parameters (CM, PM or KPI) to include/exclude in the analysis report

Possibility to select data (attributes, measurements or KPIs) from different object levels (e.g. fromBSC as well as from BTS) and visualize them in one report

By means of the additional context menu (click right mouse button in the attributes window) the

user can adapt the tree according to his needs

Select/Deselect all

Expand/Collapse

Refresh

Report ’Pre-filtering’

• Sometimes the user needs to create a report that contains certain attribute values.

• One way is to use the Pre-filtering option.

• Right clicking on the selected attribute and choosing Pre-filtering will open a new window:

• In the Fact Filter window, user is able to create a custom filter which will be used for the Pre-Filtering

purposes.

• After clicking the APPLY button and button will finish the Pre-Filtering process. Only data

which fits the filter will be loaded and displayed.


A t N t i i





Report ’Attribute selection saving’

• To save only attributes selection, not whole report

• User should select appropriate items.

• Right clicking on any of those items in the Attribute tree andselect from context menu: Save Selection

• The additional dialog box: Save as will appear. User has to select

the folder, where the attributes selection should be saved to. The

file will be saved with *.ats extension.


A t N t i i





Report ’DWH slot selection’

• The configuration of the network can change from time to time, therefore an additional dropdown list of

DWH slots is available.

• Every time new CM data are loaded to the Database a new DWH slot is added.• DWH slots are determined by CM configuration data loads.

• DWH slot dropdown list displays all DWH slots available in the database

Note: PM data don’t determine DWH slots. Load of PM data will NOT add a new DWH slot in the database.

If no CM data are available all PM data are mapped to the dummy DWH slot, displayed: ‘Start – End’

• Multislot feature allows to do network analysis across

CM configuration changes

• To create a multi slot user should click the option

‘Custom’ in the DWH combo box

• In the Dialog box the user can choose the set of DWH

slots which will create a new Multislot.

• Created Multislots are available in the DWH slot combo

box.

A t N t i i





Report ‘Multilevel Analysis for Multislot feature’

• Since AnatomN 3.2 all CM parameters (numeric and string parameters) are moved from facts area to

diemension.

• If the user tries to display the CM parameter for any of the objects (e.g. BCCHFREQ for BTS) for thenormal DWH slot the results will be displayed only in one line (row) –for the selected timestamp of the CM

configuration.

• For Multislot result will be displayed in as many

lines (rows) as many configurations are available

in the database (the dates of CM data). This isbecause of multiple configurations possible for the

multislot. In the Dialog box the user can choose

the set of DWH slots which will create a new

Multislot.

• In the example on the right side we have 2settings of CM parameter. PM data for both of

these configurations are displayed in appropriate

lines (rows) ( and in columns for appropriate

hours).

• If selected attributes and network elements don’t match no results will bedisplayed and the following message box appears.


AnatomN training





Report ’Network Element Browser’

• If selected attributes and network elements don’t match no results will be displayed and the following

message box appears.

• If among selected KPIs only some of them correspond to the selected network element, then form all

selected KPIs only the ones that comply with the restrictions will be displayed, the rest of them will be

skipped.

• The following message box appears


AnatomN training





Report ’Relations/navigations’

• In the hierarchy tree there are two types of relations implemented´:

Structural relations – objects which correspond to the higher levels objects by

means of FDN

Logical navigation – objects which logically correspond to other objects

• Structural relations result from the FDN hierarchy structure. It means that the child object, which

corresponds to particular parent object is aggregated to this parent and all higher parent objects.

• Navigation mechanism allows

displaying measurements or

attributes for both BTS objects of

one neighbor relation by selectingonly source cell.


AnatomN training





Report ’Filters for Network Elements’

• User has the possibility to define and maintain a selection list of network elements

• The user is able

to save a selection list of network elements (e.g. cell list)

to load the selection list of network elements, which was previously saved

• Selection of slot (step of SCA campaign)with SCA measurements to be analyzed

• Non-repeated BCCH-BSIC are

automatically mapped to the CGI of theappropriate cell (they are hidden bydefault, not shown to the user)

• In case of repeated BCCH-BSIC user hasto decide to which cell measured BCCH-BSIC should be mapped (by checking the

appropriate checkbox in the columnEnabled). Additional automatic optionsbased on distance criterion are available( Auto Select and Dist. Select options),they allow automatic selection of majorityof cells. Only the remaining stillunmapped cells (red marked) need to be

verified by the user.








• For the remaining equivocal BCCH-BSICcombinations (red marked) which wereimpossible to be mapped with automaticoptions, the decision has to be mademanually with help of automaticallycalculated distance between victim celland potential interferers or with help ofGIS

• BCCH-BSIC combinations are shown onpages, one victim per page. The user

should go through all cells (with Next andPrevious button) available in the report,find all red marked BCCH-BSICcombinations, which are still unmappedand make the appropriate selections.

• Once the selection is performed for all

cells, the mapping results can be savedfor further usage with Save Sel. button.To load the mapping results previouslysaved on the disk it is enough to use theLoad Sel. Button.







To decide the victim cell

and potential interferers

with help of GIS (right click

the cells with repeated

BCCH-BSIC to display them

on the map)

After selection of cells

(Select cells) the

measurements will be

mapped to appropriate

victim-interferer relation andthe tab Histograms will be

automatically activated








Selection of the range of days

(optional)

Selection of victim cells from

NE tree the range of days

Setting of parameters for

statistics calculation

Selection of the histogram

type

Calculation of cumulative

distribution for particular

histograms

Chart description: victim-

interferer relation

Selection of appropriate DWH

slot (step of the SCA campaign)







Traffic Carried calculations are

based on the Busy Cumulative

measurements:

# all samples for RXLEV

UL*480/3600

Potential Affected Traffic

calculations are based on both

Normal Measurements and Busy

Cumulative measurements:

(# samples with C/I<threshold)

(# all samples for RXLEV DL)

N-th percentile provides the

value which has not been

exceeded for N% of all thesamples

Outage provides the percentage

of samples not exceeding a pre-

defined threshold

Selection victim cell – right clicking the particular cell in NE tree

The values Potential Affected Traffic (for certain victim-interferer relation) aredepicted with help of color intensity (the more intensive color the higher PAT)

The main GIS functionalities are available, e.g.: distance calculations, cell infowindow or displaying of neighbour relations for selected cell
