Plan (Point A): policy establishment. With MBB network performance and resource
visibility, telecom operators can obtain detailed information about the network and
establish bandwidth management and service promotion polices accordingly.
Do: policy execution. After polices are established, the PRS implements policy delivery
and execution by converting the policies to network configurations. With Huawei's smart
bandwidth management solution, telecom operators can dynamically establish various
polices for bandwidth management and service control based on subscriber priorities,
subscribers' access types, subscribers using a certain service package, service types,
network conditions, service usage, and flexible combinations of the preceding
information. This enables telecom operators to have full control on the services carried
on the MBB network.
Check (Point B): policy execution result evaluation. Telecom operators can collect
information about the network again and check whether the established and executed
polices have the expected effect and determine whether to adjust them.
Adjust: Adjust polices to achieve the optimal effect based the evaluation result.

Customizing KPIs
The PRS allows users to define counter formulas by performing combined operations on
original KPIs, system KPIs, and predefined KPIs. The operations include addition,
subtraction, multiplication, and division. Users can also define conditional counters such
as worst cell ratio and busiest cell ratio by using counter formulas containing if, min,
max, count, avg, and sum conditions.
Customizing reports
The PRS allows users to customize reports such as simple reports, comparison reports,
combined reports, and database-based query reports. Users can also modify, delete, move,
import, and export these custom reports as required.
Enriched performance analysis themes: capacity visibility, KPI insight, and traffic trend
analysis
Short data delay improves the performance analysis efficiency.
For original performance data of Huawei devices whose measurement period is 30
minutes or above, the interval between data generation on Huawei devices and data
display on the PRS is less than 30 minutes. For original performance data whose
measurement period is 15 minutes, the interval between data generation and data display
on the PRS is less than 15 minutes. The data delay of third-party northbound
performance analysis software is usually greater than one hour. For example, the data
delay of MYCOM is five hours.
Performance analysis themes integrated with Huawei performance analysis
experience helps users quickly locate problems.
a. Capacity visibility helps users quickly locate network capacity bottlenecks.
The PRS collects performance data, configuration data, and license data of Huawei
devices periodically, and calculates predefined capacity KPIs automatically. The PRS
also displays capacity alarms on the entire network in predefined capacity visibility
reports and provides KPI alarms and GIS analysis functions for users to quickly
locate capacity bottlenecks.
In addition, the PRS provides the traffic trend prediction feature. This guarantees
network construction and traffic in festivals and holidays.
b.

c.
Integrated with Huawei's rich experience in KPI analysis and the correlations
between KPIs and reports, the PRS monitors KPI alarms on the network. If KPI
alarms are detected, the PRS can quickly locate causes of abnormal KPIs through the
predefined correlations between KPIs and reports.
Multifunctional performance analysis platform supports quick and flexible
performance analysis.
The PRS allows users to customize object groups based on scenario characteristics
and provide scenario data aggregation and accurate performance analysis.
The result drilling and correlation query functions help users further analyze network
problems.
The GIS geographic observation supports the display of sites and cells in the GIS
window with cell performance data in different colors. This helps users analyze
network performance easily and efficiently.
The PRS allows users to select KPIs for monitoring. The PRS displays the data of the
KPIs in charts, thereby helping users monitor the changes of importance KPIs in real
time. The PRS also supports automatic screen scrolling, which helps users monitor
multiple themes or hotspots.
The PRS supports integrated monitoring and comparison monitoring on KPIs and
displays results in monitoring charts, which facilitates comparison and monitoring.
The PRS allows users to set a threshold line for each monitoring chart, which enables
users to quickly identify abnormal KPIs.
The PRS monitors and aggregates the real-time monitoring data of KPIs in specified
regions or hotspots, and then displays the aggregation results. This enables users to
monitoring the network status.
For the same KPI for multiple objects, the PRS displays the objects whose KPI values
are deteriorated and provides the possible causes.
The PRS allows users to select multiple objects at a time by selecting an object group.
By monitoring the object group and the Top N objects in the group, users can quickly
identify the objects which have abnormal KPIs.
When the NE performance results meet the trigger conditions for threshold alarms, the
PRS generates threshold alarms, and reports the alarms to the U2000. The performance
data for triggering threshold alarms is reported every 60 minutes or 24 hours. The object
dimension can be raw object or aggregation object.
Users can check whether performance data exceeds thresholds based on threshold and
incremental alarms.
Issue 03 (2014-09-30)
The algorithm principle for threshold alarms is as follows: When the value of a KPI
exceeds the preset threshold, a threshold alarm is generated. When the value is less than
the preset threshold, the alarm is cleared.
The algorithm principle for incremental alarms is as follows: When the offset (absolute
value or percentage) of a KPI in the current and latest periods exceeds the preset
threshold, an incremental alarm is generated.

Architecture
The PRS consists of the PRS server, PRS clients, and networking devices. The PRS software
consists of the PRS server software and PRS client software. The server software runs on the
PRS server, and the client software runs on a PRS client.
Raw statistics performance data on NEs is reported to the PRS server through the U2000.
The PSSAU can be deployed with PRS on the OSS side or independently deployed on
the NE side. PSSAUs deployed in different locations must use channels in the same
network to report data.
a.
User plane logs on the GGSN/P-GW are reported to the PRS server through the
service network between the GGSN/P-GW and the PSSAU.
b. Signaling plane logs on the SGSN/MME are reported to the PRS server through the
OM network between the SGSN/MME and the PSSAU.
c.
Issue 03 (2014-09-30)
User subscription logs on the policy and charging rules function (PCRF) are
reported to the PRS server through the service network between the PCRF and the

Raw statistics performance data on NEs is reported to the PRS server through the U2000.
If the PSSAU and PRS server are deployed in the same cabinet, the PSSAU has to
report data using the northbound network because the communication between the
PRS server and the U2000 and inside the PRS is based on the northbound network.
b. If the PSSAU is independently deployed on the NE side where only the OM network,
instead of the northbound network, is deployed, data is reported to the PRS server
only through the OM network.

The PRS provides the visualization of network performance and service usage, which
facilitate network operation and maintenance.
During network adjustment such as network relocation and NE upgrade, users can
compare the network performance before and after the adjustment by using the KPI
benchmarking function.
During network optimization, users can detect abnormal KPIs in real time and quickly
locate these KPIs based on the KPI Insight function.
Issue 03 (2014-09-30)
This feature allows users to analyze the relationships between terminal types and
subscriber experience so that the users can easily find the types of terminals with
poor subscriber experience. Then, users can optimize the network or motivate
terminal vendors to optimize terminals, thereby improving subscriber experience.

Issue 03 (2014-09-30)
This feature helps telecom operators analyze traffic distribution and bandwidth usage
trend of websites and servers and identify frequently visited websites and servers in
the network. Based on the preceding information, telecom operators can prepare the
corresponding optimization policies to improve subscriber experience, such as
accelerating the network access or providing mirrored backup.
This feature enables telecom operators to learn about the data service usage of
subscribers, identify TopN subscribers, and ensure service quality for important
subscribers.
This feature helps telecom operators analyze smartphone behaviors so that they can
prepare corresponding policies to reduce the impact of smartphone usage on network
performance and improve subscriber experience.
This feature enables telecom operators to analyze the number and penetration of
different terminal types and terminals running in different operating systems. The
analysis results provide references for application promotion and service prediction.
This feature helps telecom operators collect statistics on the traffic ratio of each
application so that they can implement service control polices accordingly to provide
services required by subscribers. This helps telecom operators protect highly
profitable services and control the bandwidth usage of low-profit services.
In the GSM, UMTS, and LTE networks, telecom operators can collect statistics on
the traffic and bandwidth change trend of services by NE, APN, RAT, and area to
identify TopN applications and services of each APN and RAT. For example, during
routine network maintenance, telecom operators can query the total traffic of a
network and analyze traffic distribution and bandwidth change trend of each NE. In
this way, they can identify light-load and overload NEs and adjust network planning
to improve resource usage and subscriber experience.
In a mobile network, the traffic is blocked if the traffic of a package is used up. In
addition, the data stream of certain subscribers may be discarded based on P-GW
control rules. In both cases, subscriber experience is affected. Telecom operators can
view block traffic, block traffic ratio, and TopN servers suffering traffic block in the
block traffic statistics report.
It collects statistics on network traffic and bandwidth controlled by using Policy and
Charging Control (PCC) and Bandwidth Management (BWM) rules. These statistics
provide data references for telecom operators to adjust the rules.
This feature enables telecom operators to view, evaluate, and optimize the effect of
service control policies, helping telecom operators establish the optimal
service-differentiated policies to maximize revenues.
12
This feature helps telecom operators collect statistics on the traffic generated for
roaming subscribers so that they can design appropriate roaming service packages.
This feature enables the PRS to collect statistics on TopN subscribers for TopN
websites by traffic, helping telecom operators establish accurate marketing strategies.
The PRS can also identify TopN websites for specified subscribers, helping telecom
operators maintain and optimize the related network resources accurately.
Issue 03 (2014-09-30)
Based on the statistics on the traffic of smartphone browsers, telecom operators can
identify mainstream browsers used by subscribers, and consider implementing deep
cooperation with mainstream browser vendors to benefit from service providers (SPs)
by providing differentiated services or jointly deploying a network.
Different OTT services generate different network signaling loads. This feature helps
telecom operators learn about signaling usage characteristics of various OTT
applications. Then, telecom operators can perform network planning and
optimization based on network service situations to improve network resource usage.
This feature enables the PRS to collect statistics on actual signaling behaviors of
smartphones. Telecom operators can view the signaling model for each major
signaling procedure (such as Service Request and Paging) by terminal model and OS
type in networks of different RATs and analyze subscriber distribution based on
signaling segments. This provides references for network planning and development.
The Tethering service is available and frequently used in many mobile networks.
Based on the statistics on the traffic and subscriber distribution of the Tethering
service collected by the PRS, telecom operators can learn about the current status and
development trend of this service and design appropriate service packages.
The PRS provides the voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) service analysis function
for analyzing usage of the VoIP service on networks to help telecom operators
13
evaluate the impact of the VoIP service on the traditional voice service and provide
reference information for telecom operators to make decisions on services.
By collecting statistics about the traffic statistics counters related to roaming service
activation, the PRS helps telecom operators identify the areas where the roaming
service activation success rate is low and conduct network adjustment.
