TEMS Pocket Personal air interface test tool for WCDMA and GSM

TEMS POCKET 7.2

A VERSATILE, POWERFUL TESTING DEVICE BUILT INTO A CONVENTIONAL PHONE

TEMS Pocket is a convenient and powerful product for verification, monitoring, and troubleshooting of mobile networks and also for basic cell-planning tasks. All these capabilities are integrated into commercial handsets which can be used both as everyday phones and as testing devices, allowing anyone to collect data in a very convenientway.

TEMS Pocket collects measurements and event data for immediate monitoring or for processing by other tools at a later time. Its combination of small size and powerful testing features makes TEMS Pocket a unique product. Because TEMS Pocket is designed as an integral part of the phone, it can be used continually, not only by engineers and technicians, but by people throughout the operators organization. Because many users employ TEMS Pocket as their primary phone, operators can constantly and reliably capture data from all areas of the mobile network. The tool is installed in a range of phone models. TEMS Pocket 7.2 is installed on the superb new Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a and is also available in a GSM-only configuration on the W995 EDGE. An integrated TEMS solution TEMS Pocket works with TEMS Investigation and TEMS Automatic to provide the most complete solution for network optimization. TEMS Pocket generates data with the same level of detail as TEMS Automatic MTU and TEMS Investigation logfiles, and TEMS Pocket data can be analyzed in both products. This allows for great flexibility in network monitoring and promotes multiple uses of the same data.

Engineers can now collect valuable information with normal handsets, at any time, and at any site. All this translates into more-efficient overall use of the operators network monitoring equipment. It is possible for the TEMS Pocket software and the TEMS Investigation software to be combined in the same mobile. The network information recorded by the phone can then be used with either tool. With the new features in TEMS Pocket models for the Sony Ericsson W995 line, operators can make their workforces more effective by providing them the best tools on the market. Continuing to build on the success of TEMS Pocket for the Sony Ericsson C905, we are proud to introduce TEMS Pocket for Sony Ericsson W995 with the following functional enhancements: Scan mode TEMS Pocket Professional offers the option of a scan mode that can be used to visualize the surrounding networks at any location. Simply set the device to scan mode, perform the scan, and the surrounding information is presented directly in the phones display. Command sequence improvements New configuration makes the command sequence more flexible and introduces additional services. It combines actions including voice, video, idle, FTP, and with this release, HTTP and streaming, into a sequence of test cases. The TEMS Pocket-equipped phone device is now a data collection probe that achieves consistent testing with minimal effort. The user simply starts a script and the phone mimics user patterns in the performance of various services.

Alternate data upload via WiFi Built-in WiFi capabilities enable the user to achieve even more effective over-the-air data uploads than ever before. The user activates the WiFi and registers to the network from any location. As soon as the user enters a WiFi area, TEMS Pocket senses its presence, makes a connection, and uploads all collected logfiles to a selected FTP server with no user interaction required. This provides an alternate data upload channel that is fast, cheap, and easy to configure. HSUPA support The Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a models support HSPA technology to both measure and utilize the extended uplink capacity. AMR-WB support With the Sony Ericsson W995 models, it is now possible to utilize the superior audio quality offered by AMR-WB while obtaining an overview of the audio quality that can be achieved with the new codecs. GSM/EDGE support One TEMS Pocket 7.2 package supports only GSM networks, ensuring that operators who have not deployed WCDMA have a solution that fits their needs.

four packages for unequalled flexibility

TEMS Pocket for the Sony Ericsson W995, W995a, and W995EDGE models

TEMS Pocket Classic is the most basic package. It performs real-time monitoring of the mobile network with results displayed directly via graphical symbols. This is the ideal test tool for the field engineer who has no need to record information for later processing. TEMS Pockets mobile standby display clearly presents essential network data as well as channel information and performance measurements during WAP browsing. It generates network event notifications of abnormal situations. These are indicated by audio so that no event is missed, even when the phone is in the users pocket or purse. With the recent introduction of graph monitors, TEMS Pocket Classic presents not only the current status of the network but also the history of measurements. This allows trends to be monitored and read easily and accurately. TEMS Pocket Classic provides control functions including locking on RAT; locking on cell, channel, and band; modifying cell-barred behavior; controlling voice codec; and controlling technology capabilities where they are supported by the device.

TEMS Pocket Professional is designed for the professional RF engineer who wants to carry the best available tool. It has all the features of TEMS Pocket Classic with additional functions that make it extremely cost-effective and convenient for network measurements. TEMS Pocket Professional can also record network data together with GPS information, and can perform scripted voice, video, and data testing. This version of TEMS Pocket also allows manual setup of service testing to troubleshoot services such as e-mail, MMS, and SMS. The captured information can be transmitted over the air for efficient integration with TEMS post-processing tools as well as with a number of well-known third-party products. To further improve the uploading of data, the phone can be configured to use WiFi, making uploads simpler, faster, and more convenient. TEMS Pocket Professional can capture data in areas that are difficult to cover during traditional drive-testing. The product provides options to perform indoor-environment measurements quickly and easily. In three simple steps, indoor measurement data can be collected and prepared for import into TEMS Investigation or TEMS Presentation for extensive analysis. Another valuable option that can be added to TEMS Pocket Professional is a powerful scanner that places extensive data-gathering capabilities in the palm of the users hand. With just a few clicks, the users phone can present detailed information about the surrounding networks.

TEMS Pocket Remote acts as a remotely controlled test probe to capture data without affecting the use of the device as a conventional phone. The user is completely undisturbed by the testing functions. This version of TEMS Pocket, fully integrated into the TEMS Automatic solution, is remotely controlled from well-known user interfaces. Control is achieved via work orders sent directly to the device as it unobtrusively collects network data wherever the user goes. Data is collected at scheduled times and presented in TEMS Automatic. Because the monitoring and data collection functions are completely unattended, anyone who carries TEMS Pocket Remote while moving through the service area contributes to improved network quality. With TEMS Pocket Remote, measurements can be configured in both active and passive modes. In active mode, calls are made for the specific purpose of testing. In passive mode, the system captures the device users actual voice calls and HTTP sessions automatically and non-intrusively, with no user intervention required. Combining the two modes makes it possible to analyze individual situations in great detail, providing information to solve specific problems and to improve the whole network. TEMS Pocket Premium is the advanced configuration that is the most versatile TEMS Pocket package. The tool can perform measurements both as an unattended remote probe for TEMS Automatic or as a real-time device with the same capabilities as TEMS Pocket Professional. TEMS Pocket Premium users can switch between the two modes easily for a flexible, powerful measurement solution.

TEMS Pocket 7.2 puts powerful testing capabilities in every users hands.
