1. Introduction
This document intends to give a general guideline for collecting drive test data with the primary scope of collecting KPI ( benchmarking) and secondary to collect basic call log data

Deliverables
KPI counters Logs for offline analyisis and post processing stored at a Motorola location and available on the intranet Pareto for call failure causes
Tools
Note: At this date TEMS 2.4 is available, however no time for tests yet, release notes do not suggest changes in the event definition which could impact the KPI calculation described further in thei document.
Tools to be used: TEMS Investigation WCDMA 2.3.1 , Motorola A835 phones with NETMON - UE logging and call counting SMAP RNC logging NRG post processing
System Retainability & System Accessibility statistics will be generated from calls which are 2 minutes long for all types of calls, voice, video, data in order to align to the test calls done in Porto by GSD. This is to have KPIs deducted from the same type of calls in each location subjected to GSD aligned benchmarking. If this alignment is not needed, then the TEMS Practices document describes an alternative procedure which is also used by other major UMTS test equipment manufacturers.
Data calls: - 1 phone FTP, the data quantity adapted for each bearer speed. 2 minutes long + 30 seconds break UL FTP tests also to be included UDP as required
Duration
TBD. Depending on call volume.
Can be from minimum 3 days to more than 1 week for the complete set of tests. Remark: Reports must be delivered weekly. This will be a live table where KPIs for different calls must be updated daily as the revelant test was performed.

Notes:
1. Day 5 & 6, Additional tests to be performed as needed on non preffeded data bearers - 64 K 384 K, UDP 2. TOTAL= 6 working days
3. The TEMS logging and UE control is done according to the general TEMS practices, for details please review Drive Testing and Benchmarking TEMS practices. 4. SMAP, NRG usage are subject to usage guidelines from GSD who are the tool developers. Any issues related to these tools should be directed to GSD. 5 .FULL BENCHMARKING of all services requires more than one working week with 1 team or alternative 2 teams or reduce call volume as per TEMS Practices if the performance is good and no alignment is required.

CSSR = [Call Established / Call Initialization]* 100 = [75 / 82 ]*100 = 91.5 % rounded at 2 decimals
DCR = [Dropped Call / Call Established ] *100 = [9 / 75 ]*100 =12 % , rounded at 2 decimals Setup Times

RAS Dial .. . based on the fact that the phone responds properly to the RAS Access from the PC PDP Context Activate IP Address Assigned Session Start .. .. FTP Get starts here .. I have successfully set up a Data Call, this is including also FTP server authentication which prooves that my data pipe is usable and I do not just have a blind PDP Context. If the call fails during server authentication before Session Start, this is technically a dropped call. The user may interpret it as a setup failure, that is why if the counters for IP Address Assigned and Session Start are not equal, these cases are recommended to be analysed by replaying the logs. DATA CALL END PART
Session End . The Data Transfer was successfull / or Session Error- Call is Dropped RAS Hangup release RAS from PC PDP Context Deactivated . end PS connection
If Session Start counter = IP Address Assigned counter CSSR = [Session Start / RAS Dial ]* 100 =xy.z % rounded at 2 decimals If Session Start < IP Address Assigned , analyse and adjust the Call Setup figure and the DRC figure accordingly to compensate. Note: Low variance is to be expected here. Generally if IP Address Assigned but Session cannot Start then there is a functionality issue in the PS core or FTP server. DCR = [Session Error / Session Start] *100 = xy.z % , rounded at 2 decimals
Link Reestablishments : these are meant to save the PS call if the RL fails, due to the specifics of the user data, such a procedure is not realistic for voice / video CS calls. Reestablishments are not to be considered into the DRC statistics. If the Reestablishments are too often, causes must be analysed.
The 64 K bearer. On the graph it can be seen at 58 kbps app throughput (ftp) The 128 K bearer is reaching above 110 k the horizontal blue line is showing that. The 384K bearer is not really stable like the 128k and 64k. It suffers either from reconfiguration back to 128 triggered every few seconds ( without dropping, which is good) or when it is stable assigned the throughput stays usually above 250 kbps, mostly above 300.
