Abstract

In this article was described system for monitoring the status and analysis of wireless network. Subsystems of solution were described with possible data feeds from different data sources including Huawei U2000, DGW, NetProbes, Trace server, SAU. Supported features for each generation of wireless network have been studied. Each of functions can provide statistics for cell or base station from network point, neighbor cell, grid, location, vendor equipment or even user terminal point of view in real time. More details were provided on features such as Network Health Evaluation, Coverage Analysis. Network Health Evaluation provides evaluation functions at the macro level, including network-level evaluation and arealevel evaluation. The network-level evaluation function evaluates a network from multiple dimensions such as coverage, performance, traffic and scores the heath of the network in combination with geographic observation results, which helps users quickly understand the network status and trend. The area-level evaluation function scores the health of each evaluated area on a network. It helps users quickly identify problem areas. The area-level evaluation function allows users to set some areas as valuable areas, where quality counter greatly affects the health score of the areas and entire network. Coverage Analysis analyzes and displays the coverage analysis results on maps based on the MRs reported by common subscribers’ mobile phones, thereby helping operators to evaluate network coverage comprehensively and at low costs and identify problems such as weak coverage and overshoot coverage. Conclusions were made about the possibility of GENEX Discovery data integration with other data analysis tools or machine learning: Applications can be used to troubleshoot and analyze wireless network; Due to architecture similarities system can be co-deployed with Huawei SmartCare to extend both systems capabilities; Data from GENEX Discovery can be exported to other data analysis or ML tools by DSI service; 5G wireless network analysis is supported, which allow to analyze IoT data from Smart City;

Keywords: GSM; UMTS; LTE; 5G; wireless network; Big Data; ML.
