AWACS Key Features
• View KPI‟s, Trends, Neighbours, Config & Site details
• All network elements and All trends(incl. counters)
are accessible
• Very clean, powerful and easy-to-use web interface
• Multi-vendor, Multi-technology, HetNet support
• Open source and customisable
AWACS
• Flexible & Modular setup with widgets:
Chart, GIS, TOP N, etc.
• Use “drag and drop” to move between widgets
• Basic Formula editor for new KPI‟s
• One-click Chart export to .CSV or screenshot for ad-
hoc reporting
• Built-in .CSV tables for easy report building
Visualise all network performance now and in the future
25 June 2013 14
AWACS USE CASES :
• Real-Time Performance Monitoring
• Incident/Trend analysis
• Performance or Quality Reporting
• Site/Small Cell Integration
• Before/After analysis e.g. RAN swaps
• Pilots and special projects
• SLA monitoring
Visualise all network performance now and in the future

AWACS / Concepts
RelationsCustom relating of entities (e.g. Cells to site, sites to RNC, cells in a cluster)
AliasesAliases can be used for more human readable naming (e.g. Cellid instead of BTS id)
Tags
Entities can be tagged, forming custom sets.
Brussels: all network elements in Brussels
Ericsson: all Ericsson elements
Euro2012: all cells, relevant for Euro2012
4G: all 4G cells
Cluster42: all elements of cluster 42

RadioNDA
25 June 2013 20
All data (PM, CM, FM, kpi) available
can be taken into account
Rich context for tickets
of related issues and data(assisted optimization)
Rule-based triggering + workflow
Automatic prioritization of tickets(automatically updated + autoclose)
Customizable (e.g. Exceptions)
Online issues,offline issues , capacity
management, configuration checks etc.
GIS
RadioNDA / Notifications and Tickets
21
• „Messages‟ notifying something happened• May lead to a ticket (depends on type and weight of messages)• Rules are specified with Python scripts
• Notifications may lead to ticket• Total weight of notifications is weight of ticket• New notifications will be linked automatically (weight increases)• When weight increases, issue still exists• When weight does not increase anymore, issue is „solved‟• Autoclose mechanism (engineers should only deal with relevant tickets)
• Workflow: assign, put on hold, close etc

Configuration • Bad SC within x km or for neighbor
• Non symmetrical neighbor relation
• Neighbor relation distance larger then x km
• Relation added/deleted
Performance
Availability Cell availability, Downtime, Congestion
• bad CSSR, CCR for Speech, Packet yesterday
• Avg. RSSI Too Low/Too High
• HSDPA Access Probability, Bad EUL drop rate
• E1 Congestion, No RRC connections
• Increased Drop rate over 4 weeks
• RXQUAL67 DL/UL increase over 4 weeks
• PCHAGCH Blocking

Automatically
generated proposals
Engineer decides what to do
ChangeImplementation
Proposals can be customized (via scripting)
Engineer stays in control (responsibility)
Proposals can be automated by engineer
Issue / ticket(e.g radioNDA)
Proposal 1
Proposal 2
Proposal 3
Engineer has automated proposal 3
AutomatedOptimisation
Engineer has decided that proposal 3 can be automated
Results of automated proposals should be monitored (reports etc)
