The Assistant disperses the data collected during bus stop into the data collected several seconds before the bus starts off. In the way, the data can be evenly displayed on the map.

4.3 Managing Engineering Parameters 4.3.1 Overview This section describes engineering data such as engineering parameters, neighbor data, and CIO parameters. Engineering parameters indicate the information about the cells that are adjacent to DT points. You can import engineering data according to your requirements. z

The engineering parameter table lists all the information about a cell.

z

The neighboring data indicates the relation between neighbors.

z

CIO indicates cell individual offset. In the analysis of virtual neighboring cells through the scanner, CIO is the additional value to the handover threshold of each cell, and controls the difficulty degrees of the soft handover between different cells.

4.3.2 Introduction to Engineering Parameters Engineering parameter tables are categorized into two types, namely, WCDMA and GSM. Table 4-3 and Table 4-4 list the fields in the engineering parameter tables. Table 4-3 Fields in the WCDMA engineering parameter table Field

File Contents

Attribute data table file (.tab)

This file defines the components of map attribute data such as the number of fields, field names, field types, field widths, indicator fields, and some key information about the related layers. You can open and view this file in the WordPad.

Attribute data file (.dat)

This file is used to store complete map attribute data. The head file contains the information on the attribute data table file and the file is followed by the attribute data records in detail.

Cross reference file (.id)

This file records the pointer that locates each space of a map in the space data file (.map). A pointer consists of four bytes. Pointers are arrayed in the same way as the attribute data records stored in the attribute data file. The cross reference file is a table for defining space objects.

Space data file (.map)

This file contains the space data of each map object. Space data contains geometry, coordinate, and stain information about a space object. This file also describes the record number of attribute records for a space. In this way, you can easily find the related attribute information about this object when you query the object on a map.

Dataset file (.gst)

This file contains the indicators for the previous files. A complete map set must contain all the previous files.

TXT The text data, which contains the information about longitude, latitude, and time of collection data, is stored in a .txt file. The filename extension is txt.

6.1.2 Importing GENEX Probe Data The Assistant supports the import of the data collected by the GENEX Probe. In addition, the Assistant can combine drive test (DT) data automatically or according to the devices. Generally, combining DT data automatically is recommended. z

Automatic combination In automatic combination, DT data is combined based on the device number. The automatic combination mode is applicable to the scenario where the services are not changed during the test and the data is divided into multiple logs that do not overlap with respect to the time. When importing the data collected by the GENEX Probe, you can set the Assistant to combine data automatically.

z

Device-based combination The device-based combination mode is applicable to the scenario where the test data of multiple UEs or scanners that are of different types needs to be combined. For details, see “6.4 Combining Analysis Data.

To import the data collected by the GENEX Probe to the Assistant, perform the following steps: Step 1 Choose Project from the navigation tree, and then select a dataset. Step 2 Right-click the dataset and choose Import Test Data > Import GENEX Probe. The Import GENEX Probe File dialog box is displayed, as shown in Figure 6-1.

The formulas for the preceding indicators are as follows: z

Kilometer per Drop Call (km/times) = Distance (km)/Number (Dropped)

Prerequisite: ECIO >= -12 dB & TX Power = -95 dBm z

Coverage Rate = Coverage Distance / Total Distance * 100%

Prerequisite: CPICH ECIO >= -12 dB & CPICH RSCP >= -95 dBm z

Soft Handover Rate = (A2 + A3)/(A1 + A2 + A3) * 100%, where Ai indicates that there are i cells in an activated dataset. The letter i can be 1, 2, or 3.

z

Pilot Pollution Rate = Pilot Pollution Points/Total Points * 100%

Prerequisite: The number of pilot signals is obtained when the number of active set is more than or equal to 4. The value of CPICH's RSCP in all the cells must be equal to or are greater than -100 dBm. The difference between the best value of CPICH's RSCP and other values must be 5 dBm at most.
