RADIO NETWORK INFRASTRUCTURE MONITORING SYSTEM

Abstract In radio network of any telecom technology, making the infrastructure ready before installing the telecom equipments is a mandatory process. This process involves analysis of site conditions and ascertaining the infrastructure requirements. For installing of a network element namely a BTS (Base Transceiver Station) in colloquial language mobile tower, plenty of infrastructures are to be identified & made ready before moving the telecom equipment to site for installation. Infrastructure requirements namely connecting media, electrical power supply, tower erection and phases in which these infra are to me made available to be monitored and telecom equipment and installation material to be moved for those sites which all infra are ready. Radio network installation & expansion will happen across the length and breadth of a state. Each Telecom circle is divided into many SSAs (secondary switching area) each maintained by few teams, responsible for carrying out the infra readiness process & reporting the same to Circle head. Existing system: In existing system, all these process are not monitored regularly, whenever review meetings regarding the infra readiness is scheduled, these details will be collected by circulating an excel file containing all the necessary fields required by the circle for taking some critical decisions. When information is shared and updated by file system all drawbacks of file system database exists namely, no systematic approach, typo errors, delay, poor coordination, no data consistency, no concurrency, unsecured, no access control over data, circle head cannot protect data belonging to one SSA from the other.

Proposed system: We propose a system in which the entire data is to be maintained in a centralized database, where all teams form SSAs can access and update data only meant to them online. Salient features: Centralized Online Database Client/Server technology Anytime anywhere access Data is secured (Username/password/IP) Data access control implemented (Role based updates) No special front end tool required Data concurrency, integrity, available instantaneously Data Import/Export/backup features - secures data loss Customized reports can be generated
