These manuals apply only to TEMS Visualization Professional. They describe the operations, data views, and analysis features of the GSM application.
This document, TEMS Visualization 9.1 Professional Getting Started, is one of a suite of user manuals for the TEMS Visualization product line:
The information in this manual, TEMS Visualization 9.1 Professional Getting Started, is required to set up and use a TEMS Visualization Professional system. The following chapters are included: Section 2 Section 3 Section 4 Section 5 Section 6 Section 7 Section 8 About TEMS Visualization 9.1 Professional Hardware and Operating System Requirements Additional Software Requirements Microsoft SQL Server Installation Microsoft SQL Server Configuration TEMS Visualization Licensing TEMS Visualization Professional Installation & Starting the Application

About TEMS Visualization 9.1 Professional
TEMS Visualization Professional is a tool for performance optimization and problem troubleshooting of wireless cellular networks. It retrieves and analyzes event data collected by the networks for two main purposes: Automatic diagnosis of network issues that have a negative impact on network performance or user experience Creation and geographic presentation of information to support optimization decisions (for example, to assist in defining neighbor relations and optimizing cell coverage areas)
TEMS Visualization Professional processes event data / call trace records generated from the network nodes and stored in the OSS. An FTP client is included so that the log files can be downloaded to the desktop machine. Data processing can then be performed when needed by the user or scheduled to be run on a daily basis. Cell configuration data can also be processed so that site locations and antenna directions can be shown on the map and cell parameters can be analyzed together with the event data.
2.1 Bridging the Optimization Gap

Performance management tools show cells that are having problems statistically, but the exact causes of the problems, or the locations of the problems within the cell, are usually not provided. Drive test tools, on the other hand, are specifically designed to reveal the causes and locations of problems, but can only capture this critical data if the problems are more or less constant, and can only capture the data when a drive test happens to be made. TEMS Visualization bridges this gap by offering both the breadth of traditional performance management solutions and the depth of drive test tools. TEMS Visualization processes event-based OSS data all the way down to the individual call level. This ability to look at real individual call data from the infrastructure side complements both the big picture provided by performance management systems and the thin slicing of traditional drive testing. TEMS Visualization analyzes data sets with amounts of data large enough for statistical accuracy while offering detailed drilldown to facilitate precise problem localization.
2.2 What's New in This Release

TEMS Visualization 9.1 Professional enhancements include the following: General WCMDA, LTE and Subscriber Trace Application Support for new Ericsson system releases WCDMA W12A (with Beta support for W12B and W12B Evo formats), LTE L12A, and GSM G12A (for MTR).

TEMS Visualization Professional User Interface

This section and the remainder of this document pertain to the WCDMA, LTE & Trace application. Users of the GSM application should refer to the TEMS Visualization 9.1 GSM User Manual for a description of GSM operations.
TEMS Visualization Professional features a user interface that incorporates Microsoft Office 2007 style ribbons, navigation panes, tabbed windows, tool tips, and on-line help. Each ribbon is divided into logical ribbon groups. The interface, which is largely the same for both TEMS Visualization Professional and TEMS Visualization Enterprise, is described in detail in the TEMS Visualization 9.1 WCDMA, LTE & Trace User Manual. Important differences are the Import tab and the Report tab, which are described below.
9.1 Import Tab
The Import tab provides access to the following functions: Start/Stop Services and Update Service Credentials. Manage Projects and View Log History. Import Operator Logfiles. Buttons will be active according to the licenses held by the user. Manage Cell Configurations. Load Lookup Files (phone model lookup files and IMSI lookup files).
53
9.1.1 Update Service Credentials

If data is to be fetched only from local drives or FTP connections and NOT from mapped network drives, then TEMS Visualization services can run under local system credentials no further action is needed. However, if the system will fetch data from mapped network drives, then TEMS Visualization services must be configured to run under domain user credentials. This user must have access to the network drives and must have administrator privilege to the local machine. The Update Service Credentials utility on the Import tab configures the necessary settings automatically. Follow the steps below: 1. 2. Click the Update Service Credentials button on the Import tab. The Service Login window will appear. The default is Local System account. This setting will not allow the TEMS Visualization Services to access network drives. Select the Current User Account option, enter your domain user name and password, and click OK.
3.
A dialog will pop up to inform you that the new Service Credentials will not take effect until you stop and restart the services. Press OK, and stop and restart the services.
You will now be able to process data from mapped network drives. (As a workaround, you can always copy the data from mapped network drives to the local drive and process locally.)

Cell Configuration Management

To launch the Cell Configuration Manager, go to the Import tab and click the Manage Cell Configuration button. Cell configurations contain the site and cell information used by the projects to, for example, display the cells on the map or display the defined neighbor relations for a cell. The same cell configuration can be used by multiple projects. Please refer to the TEMS Visualization 9.1 Data Sources manual for descriptions of the accepted cell configuration file formats. The Cell Configuration Manager dialog lists the currently available cell configurations, provides management options for them, and allows new cell configurations to be created. The configurations are identified by technology and vendor. When creating a new project, the user may discover that the needed cell configuration is not listed on the Data Source window. If this happens, click the Cell Config Manager button on the Data Source window, which launches the Cell Configuration Manager.
The buttons at the bottom of the dialog are: New. Launches the Cell Configuration Import dialog, where a new cell configuration can be created. Edit. Launches the Cell Configuration Import dialog, where an existing cell configuration can be edited. (Not all fields can be edited.) Delete. Deletes the selected cell configuration. A cell configuration cannot be deleted if it is referenced by a project. The project referencing it must first be deleted. Close. Closes the dialog. Changes are always saved when the dialog is closed.
59
10.1 Cell Configuration Import

To create a cell configuration, fill in the fields on the Cell Configuration Import dialog. After completion, click OK to save the settings and close the dialog. (Or, click Cancel to close the dialog without saving the changes.) The system will process the newly created cell configuration database at the time specified during the data generation process.
Name: Cell Configuration Name. Enter a unique name for this cell configuration. Local Data Processing Path. If you want to override the default project setting, enter the path to the temporary data processing folder. If possible, the folder should be on a different physical drive from the primary database for performance reasons. In a system with two physical drives, this folder typically resides on the C: drive. Create Cell Configuration Database On Drive. Select the drive on which the database files will be created.
Add Cell Configuration. Cell configuration files specific to technologies may be required when processing tracing data. This section identifies the cell configuration files and reference files to be used. See Add Cell Configuration Files for more information.
60
Cell Configuration Details. After specifying the cell configuration and reference files, this section will be populated with the cell configuration details. Edits or deletions can be made using the buttons in the Update Cell Configuration section. Schedule. Select Once if the cell configuration file is to be downloaded and processed a single time. Select Every ___ day(s) if the cell configuration file is to be downloaded and processed periodically. Use the spin control to specify the interval, in terms of days. Verify Neighbors. If the cell configuration setup includes both WCDMA and GSM cell configurations, you may want to click the Verify Neighbors button to see how well the configurations match. A text box will pop up to indicate how many external GSM cells defined in the WCDMA cell configuration actually exist in the GSM cell configuration.
10.1.1 Add Cell Configuration File(s)

From the Cell Configuration Import dialog, click the appropriate technology button GSM, WCDMA, or LTE. A technology-specific Cell Configuration Information dialog will be displayed. A WCDMA cell configuration setup is illustrated below; the text delineates any differences for other technologies.
61
Add Cell Configuration Files. The first section on the Cell Configuration Information dialog allows you to specify the type of cell configuration file(s) to be used and their location. For Ericsson GSM cell configurations, these are normally CNAI files (.txt) or Cell Files (.cel). For Ericsson or NSN WCDMA cell configurations, these are normally BulkCM files (.xml, .xml.gz) or Cell Files (.cel). For Ericsson LTE cell configurations, these are normally BulkCM files (.xml, .xml.gz) or Cell Files (.cel).
Text cell files (.cel) can be used for the Cell Configuration on their own (without a reference file); however, there are some limitations: 1. It must be possible to link the cell configuration data to the event data, therefore the text cell file must contain: 2. For WCDMA, the RNC-ID+C-ID For LTE, the eNBid+cellId For GSM R-PMO, the cell For GSM MTR, the MCC+MNC+LAC+CI
Some features in TEMS Visualization may not be fully functional due to missing cell parameters (for example, the Selection Priority for the WCMDA Neighbor Optimization feature is only available from BulkCM and not from a text cell file). For the IRAT (GSM) neighbor optimization feature to be fully functional, the GSM cells in the area must be included in the cell configuration. The CGI (MCC+MNC+LAC+CI) for the GSM cells must be present since this links to the External GSM Cell relations as defined in the WCDMA cell configuration files. The site coordinates (latitude and longitude), antenna direction, and antenna beamwidth should also be included to allow presentation of the GSM cells on the map.
NOTE:
Local Path or FTP. Local. Click if the cell configuration file resides on a folder local to this machine. FTP. Click if the cell configuration file is to be retrieved from another machine via an FTP connection. The dropdown menu lists the existing connections. Select the connection that contains the cell configuration file. This field is only available if the FTP radio button is checked.
62
If the needed FTP connection is not listed, click the button to launch the FTP Connection Manager, where a new connection can be created. For more information, see the description of the FTP Connection Manager.
Exact File(s) or Latest File From Folder Exact File(s). Select this option if you know the exact names of the file(s) to be used. Latest File From Folder. Select this option to identify a folder and define a text filter. The newest file whose file name contains the specified text will be used.
Reference Cell Files. This section specifies the reference cell files to be used. The reference cell file allows missing fields not typically found in the OSS exports to be added to the cell configuration data. NOTE: Only cells included in the cell configuration file will be stored in the cell configuration database; cells included only in the reference cell file will not be stored.
The standard TEMS cell file in tab separated text format (.cel) is normally used. Local Path or FTP. As with the configuration files, specify whether the files are to be retrieved from a local or an FTP location, and navigate to the file if not local. Exact File or Latest File From Folder. As with the configuration files, specify any necessary file filter. Reference Cell File Name. Enter the name of the reference cell file to be used or use the Browse button to select the desired file.
Use Column Mapping File. A column mapping file allows any text file with column headings to be used as a reference cell file. Use the Browse button to select the desired column mapping file, or create a new one.
63
Match between Cell Configuration & Reference Cell File These options determine how the cell configuration and reference cell file data should be matched. For GSM, when an Ericsson CNAI export file is used for the cell configuration together with a reference file, select from among the following: Cell Name. This radio button specifies that the cell name, which must be unique, is to be used as the matching criterion. This CELL parameter from the reference file is matched on the CELL parameter from the CNAI export file. MCC+MNC+LAC+CI. This radio button specifies that the matching criterion between the CNAI export file and the reference cell file are the MCC+MNC+LAC+CI fields.
For WCDMA, when an Ericsson BulkCM file is used for the cell configuration together with a reference file, select from among the following: Cell Name. This radio button specifies that the cell name, which must be unique, is to be used as the matching criterion between the cell configuration file and the reference cell file. The Cell Name Source radio button defines which one of two fields within the BulkCM file will be used as the source for the cell name from the UtranCell node: the UtranCell id or the userLabel (the userLabel often has a more verbose cell name than the Utran Cell ID field). RNC-ID+C-ID. This radio button specifies that the matching criterion between the BulkCM file and the reference cell file is the RNC-ID+C-ID. These fields from the reference file are matched on the following fields from the Ericsson BulkCM: rncId from the RncFunction node and cId from the UtranCell node. MCC+MNC+LAC+CI. This radio button specifies that the matching criterion between the BulkCM file and the reference cell file is the MCC+MNC+LAC+CI. These fields from the reference file are matched on the following fields from the Ericsson BulkCM: MCC and MNC from the RncFunction node, LAC from the UtranCell node, and cId from the UtranCell node.
For LTE, when an Ericsson BulkCM file is used for the cell configuration together with a reference file, select from among the following: Cell Name. This radio button specifies that the cell name, which must be unique, is to be used as the matching criterion between the cell
64
configuration file and the reference cell file. The CELL field from the reference file is matched with the userLabel from the BulkCM vsDataEUtranCellFDD node. eNBId&cellId. This radio button specifies that the matching between the cells in the cell configuration file and the reference cell file is done based on the eNBId+cellId. These fields from the reference file are matched on the eNBId from the vsDataENodeBFunction node and the cellId from the vsDataEUtranCellFDD node.
Data Replacement Use Site Position Data From. The radio buttons specify whether to use the site position data from the reference cell file or the cell configuration file. Use Cell Names From. The radio buttons specify whether to use the cell names from the reference cell file or the cell configuration file. Use Antenna Data From. The radio buttons specify whether to use the antenna data from the reference cell file or the cell configuration file. If No Data In Reference File. If no data is found in the reference file, the radio buttons specify whether to use the data from the cell configuration file or to assign blank values. Assign blank values if site coordinates and antenna orientations from the OSS are not reliable and should not be used.
Verify Button The Verify button matches the cell configuration file with the reference cell file and shows the result of the match. The verification applies only to local files. If the cell configuration file resides on an FTP server, verification will not take place.

Data Collector Installation
Normally MegaMon messages are streamed from the Emil server on a TCP/IP socket connection in real time over the GEO Interface. NOTE: TEMS Visualization does NOT read the MegaMon files (.MGA, .MGZ) directly. This is an internal format for NSN use only.
Currently, TEMS Visualization requires the message flow from the GEO Interface to be stored to a static file before import into TEMS Visualization. This is achieved by using the TEMS Visualization Data Collector application. Ensure that the TEMS Visualization Data Collector application is installed on a Windows machine that can: Connect via TCP/IP to the GEO Interface. Write files to a folder accessible by TEMS Visualization, either through FTP or through a mapped network drive.
Start the installation by running the setup. Click on the Data Collector (Optional for NSN) link and follow the instructions.
For detailed information on how to set up data collection for the NSN GEO Interface, refer to the TEMS Visualization 9.1 Data Sources manual.
