Closed-Loop MBB Management


The PRS supports policy establishment and policy execution result evaluation. The
Plan-Do-Check-Adjust cycle helps telecom operators set up a smart closed-loop MBB
management system.
 Plan (Point A): policy establishment. With MBB network performance and resource
visibility, telecom operators can obtain detailed information about the network and
establish bandwidth management and service promotion polices accordingly.
 Do: policy execution. After polices are established, the PRS implements policy delivery
and execution by converting the policies to network configurations. With Huawei's smart
bandwidth management solution, telecom operators can dynamically establish various
polices for bandwidth management and service control based on subscriber priorities,
subscribers' access types, subscribers using a certain service package, service types,
network conditions, service usage, and flexible combinations of the preceding
information. This enables telecom operators to have full control on the services carried
on the MBB network.
 Check (Point B): policy execution result evaluation. Telecom operators can collect
information about the network again and check whether the established and executed
polices have the expected effect and determine whether to adjust them.
 Adjust: Adjust polices to achieve the optimal effect based the evaluation result.

Figure 1-2 Procedure for customizing reports

 Customizing KPIs
The PRS allows users to define counter formulas by performing combined operations on
original KPIs, system KPIs, and predefined KPIs. The operations include addition,
subtraction, multiplication, and division. Users can also define conditional counters such
as worst cell ratio and busiest cell ratio by using counter formulas containing if, min,
max, count, avg, and sum conditions.
 Customizing busy-hour rules
The PRS allows users to customize busy-hour rules and identify busy hours based on
specific scenarios.
 Customizing reports
The PRS allows users to customize reports such as simple reports, comparison reports,
combined reports, and database-based query reports. Users can also modify, delete, move,
import, and export these custom reports as required.
 Customizing report formats
By correlating reports with Excel templates, the PRS allows users to export report query
results using the predefined Excel templates. Users can also edit reports by using various
Excel functions, such as fonts, panes, formulas, charts, and macros.
 Generating and delivering reports on schedule
The PRS automatically generates reports based on the preset time and period. The
reports generated on schedule are delivered to a specified email box or FTP server. In
this way, users can obtain the reports by receiving emails or viewing files on the FTP
server.

Performance Analysis Expert


The PRS is the performance analysis expert and has the following advantages over third-party
software for northbound performance analysis:
 Reduced data delay: less than 30 minutes
 Enriched performance analysis themes: capacity visibility, KPI insight
Short data delay improves the performance analysis efficiency.
For original performance data of Huawei devices whose measurement period is 15 minutes or
above, the interval between data generation on Huawei devices and data display on the PRS is
less than 30 minutes. The data delay of third-party northbound performance analysis software
is usually greater than one hour. For example, the data delay of MYCOM is five hours.

Performance analysis themes integrated with Huawei performance analysis experience


helps users quickly locate problems.
1. Capacity visibility helps users quickly locate network capacity bottlenecks.
− The PRS collects performance data, configuration data, and license data of Huawei
devices periodically, and calculates predefined capacity KPIs automatically. The
PRS also displays capacity alarms on the entire network in predefined capacity
visibility reports and provides KPI alarms and GIS analysis functions for users to
quickly locate capacity bottlenecks.
2. KPI insight helps users quickly locate abnormal network KPIs.
− Integrated with Huawei's extensive experience in KPI analysis and the correlations
between KPIs and reports, the PRS monitors KPI alarms on the network. If KPI
alarms are detected, the PRS can quickly locate causes of abnormal KPIs through
the predefined correlations between KPIs and reports.
3. Multifunctional performance analysis platform supports quick and flexible performance
analysis.
− The PRS allows users to customize object groups based on scenario characteristics
and provide scenario data aggregation and accurate performance analysis.
− The result drilling and correlation query functions help users further analyze
network problems.
− The GIS geographic observation supports the display of sites and cells in the GIS
window with cell performance data in different colors. This helps users analyze
network performance easily and efficiently.

Real-time KPI Monitoring


The PRS provides 1-minute KPI monitoring for the GSM BSS, UMTS RAN, and LTE RAN,
which helps users detect and rectify network risks in time during major events or holidays,
and therefore ensuring network stability.
 The PRS allows users to select KPIs for monitoring. The PRS displays the data of the
KPIs in charts, thereby helping users monitor the changes of importance KPIs in real
time. The PRS also supports automatic screen scrolling, which helps users monitor
multiple themes or hotspots.
 The PRS supports integrated monitoring and comparison monitoring on KPIs and
displays results in monitoring charts, which facilitates comparison and monitoring.
 The PRS allows users to set a threshold line for each monitoring chart, which enables
users to quickly identify abnormal KPIs.
 The PRS monitors and aggregates the real-time monitoring data of KPIs in specified
regions or hotspots, and then displays the aggregation results. This enables users to
monitoring the network status.
 For the same KPI for multiple objects, the PRS displays the objects whose KPI values
are deteriorated and provides the possible causes.
 The PRS allows users to select multiple objects at a time by selecting an object group.
By monitoring the object group and the Top N objects in the group, users can quickly
identify the objects which have abnormal KPIs.

Efficient and Intelligent Performance Threshold Alarms


It is inefficient for users to monitor network performance KPIs for a long period of time to
check for network risks and faults. The PRS automatically monitors network performance

Product Description 1 Product Positioning and Features

counters, checks for risks and faults, and then reports performance threshold alarms to notify
users of risks and faults. Therefore, the O&M efficiency is improved.
 When the NE performance results meet the trigger conditions for threshold alarms, the
PRS generates threshold alarms, and reports the alarms to the U2000. The performance
data for triggering threshold alarms is reported every 60 minutes or 24 hours. The object
dimension can be raw object or aggregation object.
 Users can check whether performance data exceeds thresholds based on threshold and
incremental alarms.
The algorithm principle for threshold alarms is as follows: When the value of a KPI
exceeds the preset threshold, a threshold alarm is generated. When the value is less than
the preset threshold, the alarm is cleared.
The algorithm principle for incremental alarms is as follows: When the offset (absolute
value or percentage) of a KPI in the current and latest periods exceeds the preset
threshold, an incremental alarm is generated.

2.1 Position on the Network


Scenario 1 - Non-U2000 southbound and northbound network isolation
As shown in Figure 2-1
 Raw statistics performance data on NEs is reported to the PRS server through the U2000.
 The TSP can be deployed with PRS on the OSS side or independently deployed on the
NE side. TSPs deployed in different locations must use channels in the same network to
report data.
1. User plane logs on the GGSN/P-GW are reported to the PRS server through the service
network between the GGSN/P-GW and the TSP.
2. Signaling plane logs on the SGSN/MME are reported to the PRS server through the OM
network between the SGSN/MME and the TSP.
3. User subscription logs on the policy and charging rules function (PCRF) are reported to
the PRS server through the service network between the PCRF and the TSP.
 BWM rule data and sampling rate information on the GGSN/P-GW are reported to the
PRS server through the OM network between the GGSN/P-GW and the U2000.

Scenario 2 - U2000 southbound and northbound network isolation


As shown in Figure 2-2, when the U2000 southbound and northbound network isolation
solution is used:
 Raw statistics performance data on NEs is reported to the PRS server through the U2000.
 TSPs deployed in different locations must use channels in different networks to report
data.
1. If the TSP and PRS server are deployed in the same cabinet, the TSP has to report data
using the northbound network because the communication between the PRS server and
the U2000 and inside the PRS is based on the northbound network.
2. If the TSP is independently deployed on the NE side where only the OM network,
instead of the northbound network, is deployed, data is reported to the PRS server only
through the OM network.
 BWM rule data and sampling rate information on the GGSN/P-GW are reported to the
PRS server through the OM network between the GGSN/P-GW and the U2000.

Product Description 2 Architecture

Table 2-1 Components of the PRS system

Component Description

U2000 The U2000 is a centralized element management system (EMS) of


mobile networks. It manages NEs in a centralized manner.
 It collects the performance data from devices on GSM BSS, UMTS
RAN, LTE RAN, CDMA BSS, WiMAX RAN, TD-SCDMA RAN,
SingleRAN, and core networks, and reports to the PRS server
through the FTP interface.
 It collects the BWM rule data and sampling rate information on the
GGSN/P-GW and reports to the PRS server through the FTP
interface.

TSP The TSP (Trace Server Professional) is an enhanced component of the


U2000 Trace Server. It processes NE data (such as the CHRs, MRs,
user plane logs on UGWs, and signaling plane logs on USNs) and basic
information (such as NE configurations) in the MBB network channels.
The TSP provides basic capabilities, such as NE data collection,
aggregation, unified modeling, storage, and location, and the service
scalability capability. Based on the service scalability capability, the
TSP supports the customization of each upper-layer service. Data
sources processed by the TSP can be shared by upper-layer service
systems, such as the PRS, and support multiple service scenarios, such
as the MBB network deployment and inventory operation.

Trace Server The Trace Server, an optional component in the U2000 system, collects
and filters CHR, MR, and trace data of eNodeBs, CHR and trace data
of NodeBs, CHR and MR data of RNCs, signaling logs of VIP
subscribers, CS CHR data, PS CHR data, and PS MR data of BSCs,
CHR data of USNs, provides the data for upper-layer applications such
as the EBC, FARS, Nastar, SONMaster, and PRS.

PRS server The PRS server can be divided into the following categories according
to different application scenarios:
 Performance statistics server: Collects performance data and
configuration data from the U2000, parses the data, and generates
analysis results.
 Service visibility server: Collects service data of the MBB network
from the TSP, parses the data, and generates analysis results.
PRS client The PRS client software provides graphical user interfaces (GUIs) to
display the analysis results intuitively. You can log in to the PRS server
from the Web-based PRS client and perform the corresponding
operations after successfully login.

2.5 Virtualization Platform


 Reduced TCO
The virtual platform decouples software and hardware of traditional telecom NEs by replacing
the dedicated hardware with the standard x86 servers and general storage and network devices,

Product Description 2 Architecture

and migrating servers and storage and network devices to the cloud platform using the cloud
computing technology. As cloud nodes are extremely low-cost, device costs and power
consumption decrease significantly. Automatic and centralized management of the cloud
improves management and operation efficiency, and reduces OPEX. Compared with the
traditional system, the universality of the cloud increases resource usage more significantly.
 Shortened deployment time
On telecom networks with the virtualized architecture, site deployment and capacity
expansion become extremely simple and do not require complex site surveys and hardware
installation. As for service deployment, you only need to install and commission
corresponding software after applying for sufficient cloudization resources (computing,
storage, and network resources) as required. Compared with the traditional telecom NE
deployment, the whole process saves about 80% time.

on the performance data of a specified network, thereby
improving network O&M efficiency and experience.

3.2 PS Service Visibility


The PRS supports service visibility in multiple dimensions:
 Network Traffic Statistics
In the GSM, UMTS, and LTE networks, telecom operators can collect statistics on the
traffic and bandwidth change trend of services by NE, APN, RAT, and area to identify
TopN applications and services of each APN and RAT. For example, during routine
network maintenance, telecom operators can query the total traffic of a network and
analyze traffic distribution and bandwidth change trend of each NE. In this way, they can
identify light-load and overload NEs and adjust network planning to improve resource
usage and subscriber experience.
 Application Traffic Statistics
This feature helps telecom operators collect statistics on the traffic ratio of each
application so that they can implement service control polices accordingly to provide
services required by subscribers. This helps telecom operators protect highly profitable
services and control the bandwidth usage of low-profit services.
 Terminal Penetration Statistics
This feature enables telecom operators to analyze the number and penetration of different
terminal types and terminals running in different operating systems. The analysis results
provide references for application promotion and service prediction.
 Smartphone Traffic Statistics
This feature helps telecom operators analyze smartphone behavior so that they can
prepare corresponding policies to reduce the impact of smartphone usage on network
performance and improve subscriber experience.
 Subscriber Traffic Statistics
This feature enables telecom operators to learn the data service usage of subscribers,
identify TopN subscribers, and ensure service quality for important subscribers.
 Website Traffic Statistics
This feature helps telecom operators analyze traffic distribution and bandwidth usage
trend of websites and servers and identify frequently visited websites and servers in the
network. Based on the preceding information, telecom operators can prepare the
corresponding optimization policies to improve subscriber experience, such as
accelerating the network access or providing mirrored backup.
 Blocked Traffic Statistics
In a mobile network, the traffic is blocked if the traffic of a package is used up. In
addition, the data stream of certain subscribers may be discarded based on P-GW control
rules. In both cases, subscriber experience is affected. Telecom operators can view block
traffic, block traffic ratio, and TopN servers suffering traffic block in the block traffic
statistics report.

Issue 05 (2017-09-30) Huawei Proprietary and Confidential 13


Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.
iManager PRS
Product Description 3 Products and Application Scenarios

 Policy and Rules Usage Statistics


− It collects statistics on network traffic and bandwidth controlled by using Policy and
Charging Control (PCC) and Bandwidth Management (BWM) rules. These
statistics provide data references for telecom operators to adjust the rules.
− This feature enables telecom operators to view, evaluate, and optimize the effect of
service control policies, helping telecom operators establish the optimal
service-differentiated policies to maximize revenues.
 Service Plan Usage Statistics
In a mobile network, telecom operators need to analyze the number of subscribers, traffic,
quota usage, and ratio of over-usage subscribers for each package. Based on the analysis
results, telecom operators can determine whether packages are properly designed,
provide more competitive packages, and establish marketing policies for over-usage
subscribers.
 Tethering Traffic Statistics
The Tethering service is available and frequently used in many mobile networks. Based
on the statistics on the traffic and subscriber distribution of the Tethering service
collected by the PRS, telecom operators can learn the current status and development
trend of this service and design appropriate service packages.
 Smartphone Signaling Usage Statistics
This feature enables the PRS to collect statistics on actual signaling behavior of
smartphones. Telecom operators can view the signaling model for each major signaling
procedure (such as Service Request and Paging) by terminal model and OS type in
networks of different RATs and analyze subscriber distribution based on signaling
segments. This provides references for network planning and development.
 Application Signaling Usage Statistics
Different OTT services generate different network signaling loads. This feature helps
telecom operators learn signaling usage characteristics of various OTT applications.
Then, telecom operators can perform network planning and optimization based on
network service situations to improve network resource usage.
 Roaming Traffic Statistics
− This feature collects statistics on the traffic distribution of subscribers roaming
outside a PLMN in each PLMN, the distribution of subscribers roaming to a PLMN,
and the specific service traffic.
− This feature helps telecom operators collect statistics on the traffic generated for
roaming subscribers so that they can design appropriate roaming service packages.
 Roaming KPI Analysis
By collecting statistics about the traffic statistics counters related to roaming service
activation, the PRS helps telecom operators identify the areas where the roaming service
activation success rate is low and conduct network adjustment.
 Smartphone Abnormal Event Statistics
Signaling behavior of smartphones varies according to the function implementation
mechanisms of smartphone models. Therefore, the signaling loads caused by
smartphones on the network also vary according to smartphone models. The PRS can
identify smartphone models that have frequent signaling interaction (such as Service
Request and Paging), helping telecom operators accurately evaluate the impact on
network signaling load based on the market share of these terminal models. Then,
telecom operators can take corresponding measures to prevent signaling storms.
 Smartphone Browser Traffic Statistics

Issue 05 (2017-09-30) Huawei Proprietary and Confidential 14


Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.
iManager PRS
Product Description 3 Products and Application Scenarios

Based on the statistics on the traffic consumed by web browsers, telecom operators can
identify the leading web browsers used by subscribers, and can further cooperate with
the vendors of the leading web browsers to benefit from service providers (SPs) by
providing differentiated services or jointly deploying a network.
 VoIP Call Statistics
The PRS provides the voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) service analysis function for
analyzing usage of the VoIP service on networks to help telecom operators evaluate the
impact of the VoIP service on the traditional voice service and provide reference
information for telecom operators to make decisions on services.
 Cell Bandwidth Insight
The PRS uses Gn convergence nodes to collect statistics on network-wide data rates
instead of subscriber experience, and provides subscriber's experience data rate in each
cell under each RAT. In addition, the PRS calculates the target data rate based on the
service model used on a live network, helping users determine the distribution of
high-value regions where subscriber experience is poor and helping telecom operators'
network construction department to make periodic dynamic planning. This enables
telecom operators to make the best use of their budget and improve network
competitiveness, thereby improving subscriber loyalty.
 Integrated Service Statistics
This feature is an enhanced feature that is developed based on traditional protocols and
application reports. Based on the differentiated service rules and charging control rules
for telecom operators' proprietary services and third-party services, the PRS analyzes the
traffic, number of subscribers, quality, and standard bandwidth of the proprietary
services. This helps users manage such services conveniently and quickly.
 Email SPAM User Statistics
The PRS collects statistics on and displays the TopN connections used by all subscribers
to send emails and the TopN blocked connections for sending emails in lists. This helps
telecom operators analyze the subscribers who send a large number of emails within a
short period of time and cause network congestion, thereby evaluating the gateway's
function of blocking emails when a large number of emails sent within a short period of
time cause network congestion.
 Rating Group Traffic Statistics
This feature enables the PRS to collect statistics on traffic trends by rating group (RG),
thereby helping telecom operators determine whether the RG classification rules are
proper and adjust improper RG classification rules to increase revenue. This feature also
enables the PRS to check whether all traffic is charged based on CDRs, thereby helping
telecom operators reduce income losses caused by the traffic that is not charged.
 Provisioning Event
This feature enables the PRS to access the Provision EDR data sources of the UPCC to
obtain subscription event records. The PRS allows users to query the subscription event
records and trend report of a specified subscriber within 90 days before the current date.
 Policy Control
This feature enables the PRS to access the rule-based EDR data sources of the UPCC to
obtain the records for the events triggered by subscriber policies. The PRS allows users
to query the records for the events triggered by subscriber policies for a specified
subscriber within 90 days before the current date, helping telecom operators handle
subscriber complaints.
 Per Subscriber Quota Usage
This feature enables the PRS to access UPCC USDR data sources for querying the
historical daily quota consumption of a specified subscriber. Telecom operators can

iManager PRS
Product Description 3 Products and Application Scenarios

specify any subscriber and query the quota consumption and remaining quota of the
subscriber within a specified time period per day. This provides a basis for analyzing
quota usage.
 User Group Identification
This feature enables the PRS to collect statistics on and analyze the UFDR data reported
by the Huawei GGSNs and identify five types of user groups on the UMTS/GSM
networks: UMTS only users, UMTS users falling back to GSM, GSM users using UMTS
terminals, GSM users with high PS activities, and GSM users with low PS activities.
With this feature, the PRS displays the quantity, traffic, data transmission duration, and
proportion of various user groups in pie charts and tables, and supports TopN cell
ranking. Geographical distribution of each type of user group on the networks is also
displayed on the GIS map, helping users identify UMTS network problems and explore
the value space of GSM-to-UMTS user migration.
 VoLTE Quality Visibility-PS CN
In a single-EPC scenario, this feature enables the PRS, based on USN CHRs and UGW
UFDRs, to evaluate and demarcate VoLTE service quality in the entire network, NE, cell
group, and specified cell dimensions and to display KPIs related to accessibility,
retainability, and integrity in the GIS. In an eRAN+EPC scenario, this feature enables the
PRS, based on USN CHRs, UGW UFDRs, and eRAN CHRs, to perform joint evaluation
and demarcation in the specified cell dimension.
 PS CN Custom Traffic Report
This feature allows users to customize reports, and set filter criteria for data sources and
the report generation format to meet report customization requirements.
 HTTP 2.0 Traffic Report
This feature describes how to view PRS HTTP2.0 traffic distribution on the traffic
distribution and trend by encryption type or protocol version. The query results help
operators assess networks.
 QUIC Report
The PRS system allows operators to view the proportion and trend of QUIC or
non-QUIC traffic and learn QUIC traffic growth, providing reference for deploying
charging and control features later.
 U-vMOS Report
The U-vMOS feature can gather statistics on distribution of unencrypted video quality,
video playing duration, and resolution on the live network. It allows you to analyze the
distribution from the perspectives of the entire network, radio access technologies
(RATs), and host.

3.3 MBB Service Visibility-RAN


 UMTS xMbps Visibility – Cell Level
If a cell does not reach the xMbps fill rate, this feature analyzes the cause of the problem
based on geographic information, and displays the xMbps fill rate of the cell in the GIS.
This helps telecom operators achieve xMbps visibility and improve subscriber
experience.
 LTE xMbps Visibility – Cell Level
This feature enables the PRS to display whether each cell on the live network reaches the
xMbps fill rate in the GIS based on Huawei RAN devices, thereby identifying hotspot
areas. The UE throughput capability of each cell is calculated through a specified

algorithm based on traffic statistics. It helps telecom operators learn UE throughput


capability information about the live network, and provides a basis for capacity
expansion to ensure satisfactory subscriber experience.
 UMTS /LTE xMbps Visibility – Grid Level
This feature enables the PRS to analyze and collect statistics on the following rate
indicators in target areas within a certain period:
− Rate capability
Indicates the rate available to subscribers based on the resource configuration,
subscriber distribution, and radio environment.
− Actual rate
Indicates the actual service rate for subscribers on the live network.
With this feature, the PRS is able to render grids in different colors indicated by the
specified indicator value ranges on a GIS map so that you can easily learn the
service rates on the live network.
 User Fallback (GSM-UMTS) – Cell Level
This feature analyzes UMTS UEs' data services that fall back to GSM networks,
identifies the locations, time, and causes of the fallback, and displays the analysis results
in charts. This helps telecom operators formulate proper solutions to prevent UMTS UEs'
data services from falling back to GSM networks, thereby achieving migration of UEs
from GSM networks to UMTS networks.
 LTE User Fallback – Cell Level – FDD/TDD
This feature analyzes LTE UEs' data services that fall back to GSM or UMTS networks,
identifies the locations, UE quantity, and causes of the fallback, and evaluates the
cooperation quality of GSM, UMTS, and LTE networks and the UE traffic loss. This
helps telecom operators formulate proper solutions, make accurate investments, and
improve profits from data services.
 UMTS User Migration – Fallback Analysis – Grid level
The feature enables the PRS to intuitively display top areas with severe fallback
problems based on grid-level geographic observation of inter-RAT handover events.
With this feature, telecom operators can identify UMTS network problems, accelerate
user migration from GSM to UMTS, improve user experience of data services, and
increase network data traffic, average revenue per user (ARPU), and telecom operators'
revenue.
 Traffic Map
Based on the geographic location results of MR and CHR data, the traffic map feature
collects statistics on traffic indicator values by grid and allows operators to efficiently
learn distribution differences between hotspot areas on the live network, providing a
basis for future load distribution, capacity expansion, site planning, and HETNET
deployment.
 Coverage Visibility
Before this feature is used, identifying network coverage problems mainly depends on
drive tests (DTs). The problem locating and analysis period is long with low efficiency,
the network coverage analysis is not systematic, and network planning and optimization
demands huge investment with frequent optimization. This feature provides guidance for
users to quickly identify and evaluate coverage problems on the network based on the
geographic locating results of MR and CHR data and helps improve problem resolving
efficiency and reduce customers' network planning and optimization costs. It also
provides guidance for customers to purposefully plan and invest networks.
 VoLTE Quality Visibility - TDD/FDD

Product Description 3 Products and Application Scenarios

VoLTE quality evaluation and geographic visibility at the area, cell, and grid levels and
joint analysis in the indoor and outdoor coverage, packet loss, and handover dimensions
help users identify causes for voice quality problems on the eRAN side.
 WTTx Suite
The WTTx Suite feature offers a complete solution for WTTx service O&M and
provides the following functions: WTTx map, WTTx post-evaluation, CPE log query,
abnormal CPE analysis and northbound allocation data interconnection. This feature
involves the WTTx theme of the PRS and the LTM (Light Terminal Manager). The LTM
collects logs from CPEs. The PRS obtains CPE logs from the LTM for post-evaluation,
CPE log query, and abnormal CPE analysis.
 WTTx map
− With this function, the PRS displays the allocation capability on grid-level maps.
After you click any grid on a map, the PRS displays number allocation analysis
results. Address searching is supported.
− This function supports two number allocation methods: number allocation by
coverage and number allocation by package rate. For number allocation by
coverage, the PRS checks whether CPE number allocation is allowed based on the
RSRP of a grid and further checks whether indoor or outdoor CPE number
allocation is allowed if CPE number allocation is allowed. For number allocation by
package rate, the PRS checks whether CPE number allocation is allowed for each
package rate based on the RSRP and capability throughput of a grid, further
determines CPE models for number allocation if CPE number allocation is allowed,
and provides the number of remaining CPEs for each CPE package in each cell.
Simulated data and MRs are data sources for number allocation analysis. For
number allocation by coverage, if MRs are unavailable, the PRS uses simulated
data for number allocation analysis; if MRs are available, the PRS corrects
simulated data based on MRs and uses the obtained data for number allocation
analysis. For number allocation by package rate, the PRS uses the MR of each grid
for number allocation analysis and uses simulated data for number allocation
analysis for grids without MRs.
− The PRS can display areas with number allocation forbidden and cells with number
allocation frozen due to heavy load.
− Some telecom operators have their own number allocation systems and want to
integrate number allocation analysis data of WTTx Suite into their own systems.
The northbound allocation data interconnection function allows the PRS to export
number allocation analysis results to files and actively transmit files to the number
allocation systems of telecom operators using SFTP. Based on number allocation
analysis results, telecom operators can further improve their number allocation
systems.
 WTTx post-evaluation
− With this function, the PRS analyzes the impact of WTTx services on the entire
network and user experience of CPEs after number allocation.
− With this function, the PRS analyzes the percentage of CPEs whose throughput is
less than the target throughput, number of CPEs whose RSPR is less than the
threshold, number of allocated CPEs, number of cells with number allocation frozen
due to heavy load, ratio of the average cell-level throughput for WTTx services to
the target throughput. The LTM is required for analyzing the percentage of CPEs
whose throughput is less than the target throughput, number of CPEs whose RSPR
is less than the threshold, and number of allocated CPEs.
− The PRS collects statistics on causes for poor CPE experience. The possible causes
include heavy cell load, weak signal coverage, poor SINR, and CPE fault.

− The PRS analyzes the WBB and MBB traffic trends for each cell and provides
correlation analysis for RRC-CONNECTED UEs. The correlation analysis covers
the number of CPEs, throughput, traffic volume, and downlink PRB utilization.
− The PRS provides abnormal CPE analysis for identifying suspected offline CPEs
and CPE location changes.
− The PRS allows you to view the status change trend (including the throughput,
RSRP, SINR, and detailed log information) of any CPE and its resource change
trend (including the downlink PRB utilization and number of RRC_CONNECTED
UEs).
− The PRS also provides automatic post-evaluation to analyze load of each cell every
day. The PRS identifies cells with heavy resource load (including the PRB
utilization, CPU load, S1 bandwidth utilization, and number of
RRC_CONNECTED UEs) and freezes number allocation for such cells.
 CA Feature Gain Visibility – FDD/TDD
This feature allows telecom operators to evaluate gains after LTE CA enabling and CA
support conditions of UEs and check main CA failure scenarios. With this feature,
operators can evaluate gains after the LTE CA feature is enabled, simplify CA O&M, and
improve efficiency.
 LTE UE Capability Visibility – FDD/TDD
This feature provides the distribution reports of LTE UEs by category, protocol version,
RAT, frequency band, and feature, helps telecom operators learn UE capabilities in terms
of the category, protocol version, RAT, frequency band, and feature. Based on UE
capabilities, telecom operators can determine whether to deploy a certain feature, such as
CA and VoLTE sub-feature (including ROHC, TTI Bundling, and Semi Persistent).
 MBB-online@PRS
With this feature, users can learn network conditions on the whole network and in key
areas using a pad anytime and anywhere.

5.1 Management Capacity


Servers of varied management capacities are configured when different PRS features are
applied.

The management capacity of each server is measured by equivalent NE, equivalent subscriber, or
equivalent traffic. For details about the conversion relationship, see section "Description of Management
Capability" in iManager 16.1 Configuration Principle(ATAE Cluster&IBM PC Server). If any algorithm
for calculating is not included in the document, contact Huawei technical support.
 The number of equivalent NEs is obtained by converting the number of physical NEs.
 The number of equivalent subscribers is obtained by converting the number of simultaneously
attached users (SAUs).
 The volume of equivalent traffic is obtained by converting the amount of traffic on the live network.
