1 QUICK GUIDE
The instructions given in this quick guide have been designed to get you started in a few easy steps.
Please, note that these instructions do not give a full picture of the software. Consequently, every step
has a cross-reference to the place in the manual where the topic in question will be explained in more
detail.
Loading files to database. Start by loading your measurement and BTS files in the Nemo Analyze
database (See Creating the Database). This may take a few minutes, but once files have been added,
they will remain in the database until you remove them.
You are now ready to start analyzing. You can, for example, generate a report from the data (See
Reports) and view measurements in graphs and maps (See Viewing Measurement Data).

3.3 Licensing
For Nemo Analyze you can select between two licensing options: License Server or a HASP USB key.
The license server option enables the use of floating license, allowing more efficient usage of
purchased licenses. When using the floating license, users do not need to have a physical HASP USB
key attached into their PCs. Instead, there is only one physical USB key in the floating license server
containing multiple licenses. When Nemo Analyze is started, it reserves a license over the network
from the floating license server.
Floating license can be used both with Standalone and Client/Server options:
Page 16
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
An unlimited amount of users in different physical locations can install Nemo Analyze, floating license
only limits the amount of concurrent users. Continuous network connection is needed when floating
license is used.
Install the HASP control center runtime software on the floating license server hardware. The server
setup can be found from the Nemo Analyze installation USB flash drive or downloaded from the Nemo
User Club´s Nemo Analyze section.
In case of Nemo Analyze Enterprise the HASP control center runtime software does not have to be
installed because it is included in the Analyze Enterprise setup, just plug in the floating license dongle
to server.
Plug the floating license key into the license server computer. You can verify the installation by going
to http://localhost:1947/ with a web browser on the floating license server computer. You should see
a red USB key in the Sentinel Keys section of the Sentinel Admin Control Center:
Page 17
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
You are now able install Nemo Analyze. Nemo Analyze should find the floating license key
automatically from the network. After installing Nemo Analyze, go to http://localhost:1947/ with a
web browser on the same computer you are installing Nemo Analyze. You should see the floating
license key available over the network in the Hasp Keys and Products sections:
If you cannot see the key in Sentinel Admin Control Center, go to the Access to Remote License
Managers page in the Configuration section. In the Search Parameters box, enter the IP address
of the license server. Click Submit and wait for a while - the key should appear in HASP Keys
section. Also check firewall settings of the license server.
Page 18
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Start Nemo Analyze. A dialog box informing that the key is not found appears.
Note: The license server uses a TCP/UDP port to communicate with the computers running Nemo
Analyze. Please make sure that communication is allowed in the following port: TCP/UDP 1947.
Enter the IP address of the license server into Nemo Analyze. Nemo Analyze will now start with the
floating license.
Page 19
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
The floating license server can be configured via web browser. The address of the control center is
http://localhost:1947/ when accessed from the floating license computer itself. The server can also be
accessed over the network: http://<enter here the IP address of the floating license
server>:1947/.
Licenses that are currently in use can be monitored and disconnected under Sessions. Note that while
one user is able to use multiple sessions, only one license is consumed per machine. To force a user to
release a license, disconnect all sessions.
Under Configuration, you are able to access logging settings, set restrictions for users and configure
remote access settings to the Sentinel HASP Admin Control Center. Detailed description of the license
management interface can be found under Help in the side panel of the Sentinel HASP Admin Control
Center.

NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
In Nemo Analyze you can view measurement data in multiple ways. The most convenient way,
however, is to focus on the Workspace user interface since it is quick and easy. For example, in the
workspace you can double-click a parameter, and Nemo Analyze opens the parameter automatically in
the default data view. Furthermore, you can go to View | Workbook | Add Data View, choose a
particular data view, select a measurement, and drag a parameter from the Parameters view in the
data view. You can also view several parameters in the same data view by dragging them in it. If you
drag a parameter in an empty workbook, a dialog box appears and asks you to select a data view
type.
If you drag a measurement file to a workbook with a data view, a dialog box emerges asking you to
select the parameter you wish to view. The filter field above the Parameters view is useful when
looking for a specific parameter in a long list.
All data views are synchronized with each other based on time. Consequently, if you open two or more
data views on the same measurement file but on different parameters simultaneously, and switch
from one point of time in one data view to another point in time, the data in the other data views
change accordingly.
Page 26
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
6 WORKSPACE
The Workspace forms the basis of the user interface in Nemo Analyze. All measurements and
parameters can be found in the workspace, and from there it is convenient to drag them in various
data views. See also Using Nemo Analyze. The Workspace view is by default attached to the left-hand
side of the Analyze main window. You can also drag it elsewhere in the window, and if you want to
dock it back to the side of the main window, double-click on the Workspace.
The Workspace view consists of eight pages: Measurements, Commander, IP Traces, Base
Stations, Maps, Polygons, Data Source Files, and Reports pages, respectively. You can switch
between these pages via the icon tabs at the bottom of the Workspace view.
The Measurements page in the Workspace is divided into three sections: Folders, Measurements,
and Parameters. The folders include the All Measurements folder, which shows all the files that are
currently in the database, and other user-defined folders. The current database connection is also
identified next to the All Measurements folder, e.g. Analyze Local Database. Measurements
displays a list of all measurements in the folder selected in the Folders section. The name of the
measurement device is also displayed when the mouse is hovered over a measurement file.
Parameters shows all available parameters and KPIs for the selected file, measurement, or folder,
depending on the selections in the other two sections. The KPIs can be displayed in graphs, maps, and
other data views, and statistics can also be calculated from the Parameters view.

If the selected notifications occur in the measurement file, they are drawn on the map as small icons.
Page 85
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
You can now zoom in on the map and move the current location marker on the notifications. If all the
different views (line graphs, grids, maps, etc.) are synchronized, all data views will jump to the same
point in the measurement, allowing you to analyze all relevant parameter data before, during and
after the notification was logged.
8.3.5 Use Case 1: Viewing cell footprints, RSCP footprints, and LTE
footprints
Nemo Analyze can automatically create a cell footprint, an RSCP footprint, or an LTE footprint map
plot for every cell measured. Cell/RSCP/LTE footprint is displayed for every cell whose signal has been
among the three strongest at some point during the measurement session. The footprint of each cell
is displayed on map on a separate page, allowing you to browse from footprint to another and
immediately see both the footprint and the cell. Cell footprint/RSCP/LTE analysis can be performed on
both UMTS scanner and mobile data.
Analysis will not work properly if there will be hundreds of pages in the results. Therefore, it is
advisable to use filters to limit the amount of results. To view cell/RSCP/LTE footprints, right-click a
measurement file in Workspace | Measurements | Measurements, and select Analyses | Ec/NO
Cell Footprints (mobile) / Ec/NO Footprints (scanner) / RSCP Cell Footprints (mobile) /

Note: If Microsoft® Network Monitor 3.4 is not found on the PC or Nemo Analyze
has been installed before Microsoft® Network Monitor 3.4, Nemo Analyze will
display only a limited set of IP/UDP trace details.
With IP packet capturing, network packets sent between IP addresses are stored in log files and can
be post-processed with a third party application such as Ethereal®. The IP packet data is stored in a
separate file (.pcap) for each measurement terminal for which IP capturing is enabled.
This use case describes the steps for viewing IP trace data based on a measurement file and the
corresponding IP trace (.pcap) file. Both files must be from the same measurement session with
identical time stamps. First, a relevant workbook (e.g. HSDPA full details) is opened on the
measurement file. Next, a separate workbook on the IP trace file corresponding with the measurement
Page 92
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
file. The two workbooks are automatically synchronized, enabling the correlation of events on the
parameter level with events on the IP trace level.
Note: In order for the synchronization of the two files to work, the time stamps of
the measurement file and the IP trace (.pcap) file must be identical, i.e. both files
have to be from the same exact measurement session.
Once the installation file has been successfully downloaded, double-click on the file.

NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
For the purposes of this use case, all data with Received Signal Code Power (RSCP) of -100 or higher
will be considered measurement data from coverage area. The global filter created based on this
condition will exclude all data with RSCP values lower than -100 from all subsequent Nemo Analyze
operations. In other words, all Nemo Analyze operations will be filtered based on a secondary
parameter, RSCP best active set. Filtering by secondary parameter enables the filtering of a primary
parameter data set based on a selected secondary one. The resulting data set will contain only those
values from the primary data set that coincide with the values in the secondary one. All parts of the
primary data set that do not contain RSCP value of -100 or higher will not be considered measurement
data from coverage area and thus will be excluded from the processed data set.
To define a global filter, select Utilities | Global Filters from the Ribbonbar.
Page 104

Page 110
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
With the correlate parameters functionality it is possible to create events based on complex search
criteria, create events showing problems and reasons for problems, and create a CSV table from the
measurement data for export purposes.
You can create new Correlate parameters KPIs in the Query manager. In the Ribbonbar, select Tools
| Query manager | Add… | Correlate parameters. The created KPI will be added to the User-
branch in the Parameters view in the Workspace. The correlate parameters functionality can also be
used for creating a custom KPI by right-clicking on a device in the Workspace, and selecting
Correlate Parameters, and Next. In this case the new KPI will not be saved.
In the Correlate Parameters dialog, select the parameters that you want to correlate. You can add
two or more parameters in the Selected view.
There are three different Modes available: Show values when first parameter changes (left outer join),
Show values when any of the parameters changes (outer join), and Show values when all parameters
are valid (inner join).
Page 111
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
The Show values when first parameter changes (left outer join) mode creates an output row
for every value of the first selected parameter. For other selected parameters, it gives the current,
previous, or next value from the time stamp of the first parameter. This mode can used to find all
events of a certain type in the measurement data, and the values of other parameters at the time the
event occurred. For example, it can be used to find all dropped calls (the first parameter), the last TX
power, Best active Ec/N0, and Best active RSCP values prior to each drop.
After selecting the parameters to be correlated, click Next. In this example you can find six different
parameters in the Selected view, Call dropped, Percentage of “DL power up” commands, Percentage
of “UL power up” commands, Ec/N0 best active set, and RSCP best active set.
Select the data view in which the data will be displayed, for example, a grid, and click Finish. The
correlation data is opened in the selected data view.
The Show values when any of the parameters changes (outer join) mode creates an output row
when any of the selected parameters changes. This mode can also be used when exporting data to
Page 112
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Excel. In the example below, there are three parameters in the Selected view, RX level full, Ec/N0
best active set, and BLER DL. Click Next. The correlation data is opened in the selected data view.
As you can see, there are no values for RX level full and RAC in rows 4600-4616, and no values for
Ec/N0 and BLER DL in rows 4614-4620.
Page 113
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
The Show values when all parameters are valid (inner join) mode creates an output row when
any of the selected parameters changes, and all the parameters are valid. This mode can be used
when generating input for scatter graph, or when creating events based on custom search criteria. In
the example below you can see a custom KPI: all rows where Ec/N0 < -7, BLER DL, and RSCP < -79
are shown.
Page 114
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
8.6 Drill-down
The Troubleshooting toolkit with drill-down is an optional component of Nemo Analyze. When a query
has been performed with one of the Troubleshooting parameters from the Parameters view, it is
possible to drill down into further event detail from the data view created by the query.
With pie charts, you can do this by double-clicking a sector of the pie chart or a sector color in the pie
chart legend. As each sector represents a problem cause, double-clicking a sector will open a grid with
a list of all problem events caused by that particular problem cause. Each drill-down from the same
chart will open a new tab in the same window. These tabs are displayed on the left side of the window
with the colors of the corresponding sectors.
For example, green color represents RACH Failure, unknown reason on the pie chart above. To drill
down to the details of events where a RACH failure has occurred because of an unknown reason,
double-click either the green sector on the chart or the text Failure, unknown reason on the chart
legend.
This opens a grid where all failure events in the measurement data resulting from an unknown reason
are gathered (see below). This grid will be represented by a green tab on the left of the window in the
pie chart view.
Page 115
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Before drilling down into a single row of a grid, you can set a time range for log entries before and
after the selected event that are to be included in the drill-down. To set a time range, select Utilities
| Drill-down from the Ribbonbar and enter the time range in seconds in the Before and After fields.
To drill down into a single row of a grid, either double-click or right-click on the selected row. Double-
click will perform the drill-down if there are default drill-down parameters that are compatible with the
measurement data on that particular row. If however there are not, you can either right-click on the
selected row and select Drill-Down | Pick Parameter to drill down into the data on that row with
other parameters, or open the row in a separate workbook by right-clicking on the row and selecting
Drill-Down | [workbook] (e.g. UMTS | UMTS Troubleshooting.)
Page 116

Please note that the Query tab is not displayed if Format Cells is not accessed via a
right-click on the cell in the top left corner of a parameter data set.
Show results, if selected, displays the parameter data set as a whole. If cleared, Show results
minimizes the parameter data set into a single cell. Although minimized and not visible, functions can
still be run on the entire parameter data set as each cell can still be referred to, based on the original
parameter data set structure. For more information on making references to a minimized parameter
data set in a formula, see Use Case 19: Retrieving data from minimized data sets on page 230.
Short column names, if selected, displays short versions of data set column names.
The Number tab of the Format Cells dialog allows you to define the format in which numbers are
displayed within the selected cell(s).
General defines that the default settings for the content type are used.
Number defines the cell content as numbers and allows you to set the number of decimals displayed.
Page 222

NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
=AVG
The rest of the formula defines the source data for the function and is placed within brackets.
=AVG()
If the cells containing the source data for the function are located on another sheet, it is first
necessary to identify the location of the data by entering the sheet name followed by the exclamation
mark (!).
=AVG(Sheet 2!)
If the cells containing the source data for the function are located within a separate data set on the
same spreadsheet, it is first necessary to identify the location of the data by entering the data set
name (e.g. the name of a query opened on the spreadsheet) preceded by the asterisk (*) and
followed by the exclamation mark (!).
=AVG(*BLER DL!)
Next, a reference to the actual cells is added. A cell is referred to by a combination of the column
letter and the row number that intersect at the cell’s location, e.g. A1. To refer to a range of cells, first
identify the start point of the range (i.e. the first cell in the range), and separate it from the end point
(i.e. last cell in the range) with a colon (:). If the range covers multiple columns, the start and end
point references should be to the cells in the upper left and lower right corners of the range.
=AVG(*BLER DL!A1:D555)
If the range covers all cells in a column, the range can be referred to by using just the column letter
as both the start and end point, instead of referring to individual cells with row numbers.
=AVG(*BLER DL!A:A)
To refer to more than one cell range, separate each range with a semicolon (;).
=AVG(*BLER DL!A1:B12;C10:D16)
For information on the general format of spreadsheet formulas, see one of the numerous helps and
guides for spreadsheet applications available on the internet.

The function is added below the selected cells. The cell with the function displays the result of the
function. The formula of the function is displayed in the formula field on the topmost bar of the
spreadsheet view.
If you wish, you can relocate the function by cutting and pasting.
If you do not find an appropriate function amongst those displayed in the popup menu, select Insert
Function | More Functions instead.
When you select a function from the list, the info field below displays a description of the function.
Select a function from the list and click OK. The function is added below the selected cells, as
discussed above.
Page 229
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
8.12.5 Use Case 19: Retrieving data from minimized data sets
It is possible to minimize parameter data sets on a spreadsheet to take up the space of only one cell.
For minimizing data sets, see Editing cell format on page 221.
To retrieve data from a minimized table, you first have to know which column in the maximized data
set contains the data you want to retrieve. The first column in a separate data set is always
considered to be Column A, the second Column B, etc., no matter how the data set is situated on the
spreadsheet. Thus, if you are retrieving data from the first column of a minimized table, you are
interested in the contents of Column A. The name of the query (i.e. the parameter data set that has
been opened on the spreadsheet) has to be known as well in order for you to be able to refer to the
right data set.
The creation of a formula for data retrieval begins with the equal sign (=) to identify the string as a
formula. Next, add the operator of the mathematical function you want to use. For instance, with the
function Average, the operator is AVG. For more functions, see Adding functions on page 228.
Next, within brackets, define the data set on which the mathematical function is to be run. The data
set definition string is generally of the following format: open bracket, asterisk, query name,
exclamation mark, reference to the first cell in the range, colon, reference to the last cell in the range,
and closed bracket. Thus, a formula for calculating an average based on values on rows 1-15 in
Column A of the BLER DL data set would be of the following format: =AVG(*BLER DL!A1:A15). For
more information on formulas, see Creating formulas on page 227.
Page 230
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
8.12.6 Use Case 20: Creating reports and report templates using
spreadsheets
It is possible to create reports on spreadsheets and save them as report templates. These report
templates can then be run on all measurement files that contain the events the report has been
defined to look for.
Select View | Workbook | Spreadsheet Grid in the Ribbonbar to open an empty spreadsheet.
Page 231
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
In Workspace, select a measurement and the parameter you want to add on the report. Click on the
button to open the Parameter Launchpad.
Page 232
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
In Parameter Launchpad, click on Statistics for a list of aggregates, select an aggregate (e.g. Count)
from the list and drag and drop it to the cell you have designated for it in the spreadsheet layout.
Page 233
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Repeat the procedure with other relevant parameters until they are all on the spreadsheet.
If the report you are creating requires mathematical operations, select the cell you have designated
for an operation and enter the appropriate formula into it. In the present example, the count of
connected calls has to be divided by the count of call attempts to produce a ratio of successful calls.
In order to present the ratio as a call success rate percentage, the result of the division has to be
multiplied by hundred. At this point, the formula is of the following format: =((C3/C2)*100).
For information on the general format of spreadsheet formulas, see one of the numerous helps and
guides for spreadsheet applications available on the internet.
Because division as an arithmetic operation always requires that the divisor (i.e. the cell C2) is not
zero and because in a report of this type it is possible that the result of the count operation in C2 will
be the value zero (i.e. if there are no call attempts), an additional condition following the format ‘if C2
is zero, the result of the division is zero’ has to be created to prevent the error that would otherwise
occur. In spreadsheet formulas, this will be expressed in the following format:
=IF(C2;((C3/C2)*100);0).
Page 234
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
If the result of the calculation is displayed in a format unsuitable for the value type (e.g. a percentage
is displayed with multiple decimals), right-click on the cell containing the value, and select Format
Cells from the popup menu.
Page 235
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Select a number format suitable for the value type, define the number of decimals to be displayed,
and click OK.
You can save the completed report as a template that can be run on any measurement file that
contains the events required by the report. To save the report as a template, right-click on the
spreadsheet and select Workbook | Save… from the popup menu.
Page 236
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Popup menu defines the menus (e.g. Workspace Device Menu) in which the workbook will be saved.
For more information on menus, see p.504.
Groups defines the group (e.g. User) in which the workbook will be saved to.
To run the report on another measurement file, select a measurement from the Workspace section
you defined as the location for the template (e.g. Workspace Device Menu) and right-click a
measurement file.
Page 237
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
From the popup menu, select the submenu you defined as the location for the template (e.g. User)
and select the template.
2. Before measurement, the number of each server’s phone line must be configured manually to
the voice quality server. By doing this, the numbers will also be set to the server end´s log file
headers.
3. Load both Nemo Outdoor and server log files into Nemo Analyze. After this, you are able to
use Nemo Outdoor files normally. If you want to see UL MOS for a specific Nemo Outdoor log
file, select the file in question and UL MOS from the Parameters view. Nemo Analyze connects
UL MOS values from the correct server file to the Nemo Outdoor file in question by comparing
time and phone numbers.

drawn on the map. You can color the route and use all the features available for maps.
The in-building measurements option allows analyzing and post-processing in-building (i.e. indoor)
measurements that have been performed on various floors of one or several buildings (i.e. venues).
With the in-building measurement feature, Nemo Analyze automatically organizes measurements
performed on the same venue/building/floor under the same folder. The measurement tree in the
Workspace shows map file and venue/building/floor information in tooltip for in-building
measurements.
The in-building measurements option enables duplicating a workbook page per device or floor so that
each device/floor contains the same data in the properties. Right-click on the workbook and select
Workbook | Properties. Then select In-building. After that, right-click on the page and select
Page | Properties and select Copy page for each device or Copy page for each in-building
floor.
Note that old workbooks can be modified to be used with new in-building
measurements with the selections above.
Page 241
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
1. IBWC Files
In-building measurements with IBWC files can be created with Nemo Handy or with an external
iBwave tool. An IBWC file consists of a venue plan: each venue can contain several buildings and each
building can contain several floors. Each floor can contain floor maps and indoor base stations
(transmitters).
Note that when IBWC maps are created, all maps must be geocoded using GPS
coordinates.
When in-building measurements are created with Nemo Handy or Nemo Outdoor/Invex, all
measurement files contain an nmf header tag displaying venue/building/floor information, describing
where the measurement was performed: #FLOORPLAN "name", "gps", "file", "venue", "building",
"floor".
Note that IBWC files are not delivered with the Nemo Analyze product package,
therefore they must be uploaded separately to Nemo Analyze
When an ibwc file is added to the Nemo Analyze database, the file appears in the Loaded iBwave files
section of the Map page in the Workspace. In addition, a new in-building folder is created to the folder
list in the measurement page on the workspace. The in-building folder has venue/building/floor
structure.
In-building folders can be hidden from Options | Environment | Layout by unselecting Show
inbuilding folders.
To import the custom settings file (.aex), see Importing custom settings.
A tooltip in the measurement tree in the Workspace shows map file and venue/building/floor
information for in-building measurements. You are also able to see from the measurement tooltip into
which building/floor the measurement belongs to.
Page 242
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
In the in-building tab, select In-building and define Venue, Building, and Floor by clicking the Add
button after each selection. The added options are displayed on the Selected list.
Different floors can be selected from pop-up menu in the Layers section on the map panel. Each floor
shows corresponding floor map, possible transmitters and related measurements.
Page 243
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
When an in-building measurement is opened on live map, it also opens related ibwc file on live map if
not yet opened. The measurement is only visible if correct floor is selected.
If map images on image layer or on in-building layers are not properly positioned on live map, map
image positions can be fine-tuned.
Work flow:
1. Click map image and go to image layer or in-building layer in the map panel.

10 REPORTS
With Nemo Analyze, you can select the optimal approach for each statistical reporting task. A set of
predefined compatible report templates for optimization and benchmarking purposes are available.
Report templates are available in the following formats: Crystal reports (.rpt), and two proprietary MS
Excel based formats: .srt (Spreadsheet Report Template) and .axt (Analyze Excel Template). The
Crystal reports and .axt templates are legacy formats that are not updated anymore. Hence, the
Spreadsheet Report Template (.srt) format is the recommended way for reporting, both default
templates as well as the user-defined templates. In addition, the Workbook templates of Analyze UI
can be used for reporting. However the Workbook templates has limited exporting options: the
workbook can be only exported in PDF format.
Spreadsheets.
10.3 Workbooks
The fully customizable and automatable Nemo Analyze workbooks provide you with a completely new
angle on statistical reporting. Each workbook can contain several pages and data views. All open
workbooks and all data views within the workbooks are automatically synchronized in time. The
comprehensive selection of data views includes spreadsheets, maps, grids, line graphs, bar graphs,
pie charts, layer 3 messages, surface grids, and color grids. Nemo Analyze features a full set of ready-
made workbooks with pages and views for all the relevant KPIs. Nemo Analyze workbooks can be
scheduled to be run automatically on predefined measurement file folders. Nemo Analyze paired with
an automatic measurement solution such as Nemo Commander can indeed equal to automatic up-to-
date measurement reports popping up on your desktop as and when measurement sessions are
completed. All custom settings, such as workbooks, queries, layouts, color sets, KPIs, etc., can be
imported and exported to enable sharing between colleagues.

The Report Scope dialog box appears, allowing you to filter the report to show results from selected
system, band, and area. This step is not, however, mandatory.
Finally, click OK to generate the Excel report. The report opens in Analyze Spreadsheet Report Viewer.
You are able to save the report as Excel workbook form or as PDF by clicking on the toolbar Save as
Excel Workbook or Save as PDF.

NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
The data should be processed as much as possible beforehand in Nemo Analyze so that the Excel
report shows the preprocessed statistics/metrics rather than raw values. For example, it is better to
export average Ec/N0 to the report rather than raw Ec/N0 samples and then calculate the average
using Excel formula. This is because the performance of MS Excel is not optimal when processing
thousands of rows of data. It is also possible to create an empty report template with all the
necessary formatting and charts directly in MS Excel, open the resulting .xlsx document in the
Spreadsheet Report Designer and use it as baseline for the report.
You are also able to create a report template layout beforehand using MS Excel. To do this, open a
blank workbook in MS Excel by selecting File | New | Blank workbook. Add the necessary
worksheets and charts and format their appearance. Once you have finished defining your MS Excel
workbook, save it by selecting File | Save As.
If you have already created a report template with Spreadsheet Report Designer or MS Excel and want
to use or edit it, select Open from the Spreadsheet Report Designer toolbar. A dialog box showing all
existing templates in C:\Nemo Tools\Nemo Analyze\Reports folder appears. Select a spreadsheet
report template (.srt file), from the list of files and click Open.
Page 289
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Once you have created or opened a report template in Spreadsheet Report Designer, you need to
define which data will be exported when the report is run and the export location within the MS Excel
report template.
To add a parameter to the template, select a cell on the report template and drag and drop the
parameter into the report template. However, to improve the responsiveness of MS Excel, it is
recommended not to use MS Excel in calculating raw values that contain tens of thousands of rows.
For example, you should not export to MS Excel any isolated Ec/NO values and calculate average
values with MS Excel´s formula. Success rates, etc. instead are well-suited to be calculated using MS
Excel. For example, you can export from Nemo Analyze “Number of call attempts” and “Number of call
attempt failures”. MS Excel will then calculate and show call setup failure rate, i.e. “number of call
attempt failures”/”number of call attempts”.
You are also able to add a parameter to the template by left-clicking on a parameter in the
Parameters view to open a dialog in which you are able to define in which format the parameter is
shown on the report. It is possible to show the raw values (do not calculate statistics) or to show
average or other pre-calculated statistical figures in the report. After having defined the settings, click
Add Parameter to [the selected cell].

NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
To insert elements into a worksheet, select a cell on the report template and click Insert in the
Spreadsheet Report Designer toolbar.
Workbook Image: Adds an image of a Workbook page to the worksheet. The workbook image is
added to the cell that is currently selected. If a range of cells is selected, the image is automatically
sized to cover the selection area. This function is typically applied to showing map plots in reports.
Manual SQL Query: Allows the user to type a query directly into the worksheet.
Rows: Inserts new rows to the worksheet. When adding a parameter to the statistics table the
statistics table must grow downwards. In Analyze version 7.00 and earlier, the statistics table
automatically inserted a row to make room for the table. But this could cause changes to any
formatting on left or right side of the statistics table. Starting from version 7.10 the statistics table
does not insert a row when a parameter is added. Instead it replaces data on a row below the
statistics table. To make room for more parameters user can insert rows/cells manually.
Chart: Inserts a chart to the worksheet. First select the data range, then select Insert | Chart and
double-click to open SpreadsheetGear Chart Explorer.

Screenshots below show two statistics tables, the one at B2 is grouped by operator and the one at B5
is grouped by device extension. Image A shows the tables in different column groups, which makes
them work independently. Image B shows the tables in the same group, which makes both tables
contain the same columns.
Page 292
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Note: enabling this can cause unwanted side-effects, such as other cells and
frames in the report being moved unpredictably.
The screenshot below shows two statistics tables, and column F which is highlighted with blue color.
In the screenshot below the statistics table at B2 has ”Insert columns”oset to ”No”owhich puts the
results into C3 and D3 without inserting any columns. The table at statistics B5 has ”Insert
columns”oset to ”Yes”, which inserts a cell when more space is needed for the results. But in this case
you can see that inserting columns has broken the formatting for F column in the screenshot above.
Default (and recommended) value for this settings is the results. But in this case you can see that
inserting columns has y.this settin for all statistics tables.
Page 293
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Note that when running a report with this type of statistics table, rows are automatically inserted to
make room to expand the statistics table. This may cause unwanted side-effects to formatting on left
and right sides of the statistics table.
Report configuration dialog opens. Select Edit in Excel. You can also select relevant measurements.
After making the changes, close MS Excel and continue using the Report Designer.
Page 294
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Define the settings of the elements you have added to the worksheet by clicking the View tab on the
toolbar.
Report Configuration Editor allows you to define the values of the input variables of certain metrics
and KPIs in the Nemo Analyze Parameters view at the time of query execution. For example, “Ec/N0
CPICH Nth best selected carriers”, where N and the channel range are defined by the user at the time
of query execution. Such metrics can be used in the report template, and the values of the input
variables are controlled with Report Configuration Editor.
Report configuration editor can be used to create easily customizable attributes in a report, without
having to open the report in Spreadsheet report designer for editing. The typical attributes to be
customized are channel number filters in scanner queries, N in Ec/N0 Nth best query and similar. Any
query that has been configured to use filter, or has parameters prompted from user, can take the
input attributes via the Report configuration editor.
Select Add group to add a parameter group. Parameter groups are used to organize how the input
parameter appears in the dialog that is used to modify them. Using more than one group is not
mandatory. However if there are a lot of parameters, groups help organizing them..
Page 295
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Select Add parameter to define a new attribute. Identifier is the attribute name used in the report
template. Name is the friendly name of the attribute shown in the configuration dialog when
modifying the attributes. Default value is the default value for the attribute.
The attributes defined in Report configuration editor can be used anywhere in the report as an
argument or filter values. The syntax is {?<identifier>?}. For example, if the identifier of the attribute
is nth, the string typed in the argument field is {?nth?}. See example in the screenshot below.
The values of the attributes can be changed from reports tab of the workspace right-clicking and
selecting Configure.

NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Report Configuration Editor’s Script tab contains a text editor. Here you can write scripts that
customize the report behavior. The report script is written in Python programming language and it
allows customizing the report.
The script can export workbook pages to a set of image files (one file per page) to disk, while running
the report. This is a rather specialized feature that is not usually needed but can be useful for some
situations. Here is an example script for doing this:
The script can be used to automatically save and open the report in Excel after it has been generated.
The script for doing this is pictured below:
Zoom in / Zoom Out / Zoom level allow you to adjust settings related to zooming.
To perform test runs for the reports, select Run Report from the toolbar and select for which
measurement you want to run the report and click Run Report
Once all the workbooks and layouts are ready, you can save the template as a .srt file by clicking File

In the following example, Sheet1 of the existing target MS Excel sheet displays the final report output
which is generated based on input data sets on Sheet2. In other words, as Sheet2 acts as a basis for
the final output on Sheet1, the data sets should in this case be exported to the appropriate columns
on Sheet2.
Note: Before doing anything else, it is recommended to open the data set intended
for export in grid data view to check the data set’s number of columns and column
order. The data set will be exported from Nemo Analyze in fixed table format and
thus it may be necessary to make changes to the column order of the target MS
Excel sheet before the export operation.
The target MS Excel workbook must be saved to Nemo Analyze’s default Reports directory. To find out
what the default folder for reports is, select View | Options from the Ribbonbar, and Environment |

The Work Flow below explains step by step how to first create a PowerPoint or a Word template, and
how to run a report.
For reporting with PowerPoint the PowerPoint version must be 2007 or newer.
Work Flow:
1. In Nemo Analyze, create workbooks that are needed in the report. Workbooks may have one
or multiple pages. Save workbooks.
Start Microsoft PowerPoint or Microsoft Word. When Analyze is installed on the computer,
Analyze reporting is shown as a tab in PowerPoint’s/Word’s toolbar.
2. In PowerPoint/Word, create new document or open an existing one and select Fetch
workbook images. Nemo Analyze must be running on the background. You must first select
a measurement: it could be any measurement saved on the computer.
Page 323
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
3. This opens the Fetch Workbook Images dialog. You can now select the workbooks you want to
use in the report template.
You can define the image size with Image Width and Image Height. The default image size is
800x600 pixels.
Press Ok. Analyze opens the selected workbooks and copies the images to Workbook Image
Gallery. This may take a few moments depending on the amount and size of workbooks. Once all
images are copied into the gallery the progress window closes.
Page 324
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
The View image dropdown menu shows all images that are copied in the gallery. After selecting an
image, click Add… to add the image in the report.
Note that before adding images into a PowerPoint report, a shape/ frame into
which the images are added in a slide must be selected, otherwise images cannot
be added. PowerPoint includes layout options that are suitable for Analyze
reporting: they include content shapes that can be selected for adding images.
Clicking | First, < Previous or Next> allow moving from an image to another.
Page 325
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Search allows searching for images by their name. Note that entering a word without a colon (:)
searches for image names including that word before the colon, and searching for a name with a colon
(for example, :application) searches for image names that include the word after the colon.
Keep aspect ratio and Fit to shape change the resolution of the image. The result is shown in the
Workbook Image Gallery’s preview.
Selecting Dim added image darkens the added place holder images. This helps identifying the
images that are from Nemo Analyze, for instance in case there are also other images in the report.
When the report is run.images are updated and longer appear dimmed.
Note that if images are removed from the workbook image gallery, the only way to restore
them is by fetching them again from Nemo Analyze.
When all place holder images are chosen and the report template is ready, you can save the template.
5. To run a report, go to Nemo Analyze. Right click on a measurement you want to run the report
on and select Report | Create PowerPoint Report for a PowerPoint report or Report |
Create Word Report for a Word report. Select the PowerPoint/Word report template you
want to use. A progress window is displayed while the report is run.

Nemo Analyze is based on an SQL database. The data is stored and retrieved from the database using
SQL queries via the standard ODBC interface. The results of the SQL queries can be further processed
using the KPI workbench, Nemo Analyze’s graphical, flowchart-based scripting engine. The results of
Page 332
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
the SQL queries and the KPI Workbench scripts can be visualized using Nemo Analyze’s
comprehensive selection of data views, or any third party post-processing tool supporting ODBC
connectivity. This section describes the guidelines for making custom KPIs with both SQL (see SQL
queries on page 333) and the KPI Workbench (see Custom KPI Workbench on page 359).
SQL queries represent a powerful tool for complex data filtering and data processing when the data is
in scalar format. However, SQL has some downsides as well: it is impossible to create queries that
track certain event sequences, such as changes in a particular parameter value from row to row. It is
also impossible to merge data from more than two data sets into a single result set based on time.
Moreover, the use of SQL queries requires knowledge of the Nemo Analyze database schema and
proficiency in SQL.
The KPI workbench enables the creation of complex queries, including time-based merging of multiple
inputs, and the tracking of particular event sequences. The graphical user interface makes it also
easier to use than SQL. To summarize the differences between the KPI Workbench and SQL, the KPI
workbench is a more powerful tool for data customization, whereas SQL is sometimes more
convenient when filtering or formatting raw data. For a user without previous experience with SQL,
the KPI workbench is recommended as the primary data customization tool.
1. SQL editor. Queries can be written with the Nemo Analyze database browser (see Database
Browser on page 359) but there are also many specifically SQL-oriented third-party editors
available. Good freeware tools are also available, such as
http://gpoulose.home.att.net/Tools/QTODBC61.msi
Page 333
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
2. Nemo File Format specification. The document describes the Nemo measurement file format
on an event-by-event basis. The file format specification can be downloaded from the Nemo
User Club, or accessed via Nemo Analyze by selecting Help | Nemo file format from the
Ribbonbar.
3. Open access SQL reference. The document describes the supported SQL syntax and can be
downloaded from the Nemo User Club. In addition to the Open access SQL, Anite has added
some proprietary scalar functions and stored procedures for common tasks needed in drive
test data processing. The description of Anite’s proprietary scalar functions and stored
procedures can be accessed by selecting Help | Help topics from the Ribbonbar and searching
the help with the keywords scalar functions or stored procedures.
4. Nemo Analyze database schema. Database schema can be accessed and queried by selecting
Help | | Creating Customer Queries | SQL Queries | SQL Queries Nemo Analyze Database
schema from the Ribbonbar. Note that querying the schema may take several minutes. The
schema can be exported as a PDF document.
In the Nemo Analyze database, the table structure is based on the event structure of the Nemo log file
format. That is, each event in the Nemo file format has a corresponding table in the database. For
instance, a BLER event is always recorded when the mobile’s Block Error Rate changes. When the log
file is loaded into the Nemo Analyze database, each BLER event is parsed as a new row in the BLER
table.
When referring to a table in a query, the syntax is “[schema name]”.”[table name]”. For example,
"Nemo.UMTS"."BLER”, where the schema is Nemo.UMTS and the table BLER.
One-to-one relation means that each row in a given table can have a relation with a single row in
another table. In one-to-many relation, each row in a given table can have a relation with multiple
rows in another table.
These relations can be defined by two columns in a table: the columns primary key and foreign key.
Each table by necessity has a primary key. Primary key is a column that uniquely identifies each row
within a table. In Nemo Analyze database, the primary key column is always named as oid. If a table
has relations with other table(s) it will also contain a foreign key column for each related table. The
foreign key column contains the value of the primary key values (oid) of the associated row(s) in the
other table. Foreign key column names always include the prefix the_, as with the following names:
the_parent, the_event, and the_connection. For examples of how the relations are used in
practice, please see the following two chapters that describe the mapping of static and dynamic
events to database tables.
Page 334
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
The diagram below illustrates the mapping of SHO events to different database tables. A similar
diagram applies to all static events. For each SHO event in the log file, there is one row written in the
SHO table. All soft handover-specific information elements within the SHO event are written to the
corresponding columns in the SHO table.
Generic information elements common to all events are written in the Event table. Such information
elements include time, latitude, longitude, GPS distance, etc. There is a one-to-one relation between
the SHO table and the Event table. The column the_event in the SHO table is a foreign key, pointing
to the oid column in the Event table. In other words, each unique row value in the column the_event
in the SHO table corresponds with a unique row value in the column oid in the Event table. Based on
this correspondence, the two tables can be correlated.
The Device table contains a row for each log file loaded into the database. The only information
column in this table is the log file extension. There is a one-to-many relation between the SHO table
and the Device table. The SHO table contains a row for each SHO event from each log file loaded into
the database. Each row of the SHO table belonging to same log file points to the same row in the
Device table. That is, the value in the column the_device in the SHO table is the same on all rows
that come from the same log file, corresponding with a single row value in the column oid in the
Device table.
The Measurement table contains a row for each measurement loaded into the database. It contains all
measurement-specific information columns, including the log file title. It should be noted that the term
measurement refers to one or multiple log files collected at the same time. If a Nemo Outdoor Multi
measurement is made with 4 terminals, there will be a single measurement session and 4 log files. In
this case, the measurement title is the same for all log files and the log files are differentiated from
each other using different file extensions. When these files are loaded into the Nemo Analyze
database, there will be 4 rows in the Device table, one for each log file, and one row in the
Measurement table. So there is a one-to-many relation between the Measurement and Device tables.
That is, the value in the column the_measurement in the Device table is the same on all rows that
come from the same measurement session, corresponding with a single row value in the oid column
of the Measurement table.

NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
The diagram below illustrates the mapping of ECNO events into different database tables. The ECNO
event in the log file contains Ec/N0, RSCP, channel number and scrambling code for each measured
cell, and carrier RSSI for each measured channel. Because the number of information elements in
each ECNO event varies, the data has been split to multiple different tables in order to achieve
efficient data storage in the database. As with all dynamic size events, the data is split to multiple
tables in the database. There is a single row written in the ECNO table for each ECNO event in the log
file. The ECNO table consists of columns such as the number of active set cells, the number of
monitored set cells, etc. The relations between the tables ECNO, Event, Device, and Measurement are
similar to those of the SHO event, see previous example.
There is a one-to-many relation between the tables ECNO and Channel. In the Channel table, there is
a row for each carrier RSSI value reported in an ECN0 event. All the rows in the Channel table that
belong to the same ECN0 event have the same value in the column the_parent. The value in the
column the_parent equals the oid value of the matching row in the ECN0 table.
There is also a one-to-many relation between the tables ECNO and Cell. For each measured cell in the
ECNO event, there is a row in the Cell table. All the rows in the Cell table belonging to the same ECN0
event have the same value in the column the_parent. The value in the column the_parent equals
the oid value of the matching row in the ECN0 table.
As an example, consider an ECN0 event that includes measurement results from six different cells.
Two of these cells are in channel x, and the rest in channel y. When parsed to the database, the event
will produce one row in the ECN0 table, two rows in the Channel table, and six rows in the Cell table.
Page 336
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
The structures of all tables in the database follow the same principle as the SHO event and the ECNO
event above. All tables in the database are structured based on the same principle with either the SHO
event or the ECNO event (discussed above). Each column, table, and relation is described in detail in
the Nemo Analyze database schema.
Typically, when a query is made, the data of interest, such as RX level, Ec/N0, etc. is retrieved
together with corresponding general information which at the minimum includes time, latitude and
longitude. This means that the tables Event, Device and Measurement must be joined with the table
containing the data of interest.
The Nemo Analyze database schema contains views for each data table that results from joining the
Event, Device and Measurement tables. In other words, a view is a virtual table that joins the tables
Event, Device, and Measurement as one. When using a view in an SQL query, the tables are joined by
the ODBC driver and not by the user. The views should always be used when there is need for viewing
time, lat, long, etc. information together with the data of interest. This is for two reasons. Firstly, the
views are easier to use because queries become simpler when there is no need for performing the join
Page 337
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
operation as part of the SQL query itself. Secondly, the query performance is also a little bit better
when using views instead of query-based join operations.
A “+” character at the end of the table name identifies a table as a view. For example, the view
corresponding with the SHO table is titled SHO+. In the screenshot below, all the columns in the
BLER+ table are listed. It can be seen that BLER, time, lat, long, measurement name, etc. are all
available in the same table.
The screenshot below demonstrates how views are used as part of queries. Both of the illustrated
queries return the same information, i.e. time and bler. The upper query represents a situation where
the join is performed as part of the SQL query, i.e. without using the relevant view. The query
retrieves bler from the BLER table and time from the Event table. The Event and BLER tables are
joined with the WHERE clause of the query. The lower query represents a situation where the relevant
view is used, i.e. the query retrieves both time and the parameter bler from the BLER+ table.
Page 338
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
The binary time stored in the column time (of the Event table and of all the views) contains both the
timestamp and the duration of the sample. The column sql_time contains only the timestamp. When
custom queries are used in Nemo Analyze, the binary timestamp time should always be
used. Nemo Analyze converts the binary time to timestamp at runtime, and automatically utilizes the
sample duration (embedded in the timestamp) in route colouring and line drawing.
Page 339
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
The screenshot above shows how the sample duration in milliseconds can be retrieved from the binary
timestamp using the scalar function TI_INTERVAL(). It is also evident that the duration of some
events is 0. These event parameters (such as dropped call, call attempt failure, and cell reselection)
do not have duration, as they represent events that occur at a point in time. Therefore, the scalar
function TI_INTERVAL(time) returns the value 0 ms. All other parameters, such as Rx level, Ec/N0,
throughput, BLER, etc., contain a duration.
When using Nemo Analyze queries with third-party tools, sql_time and TI_INTERVAL(time) must
be used instead of the binary timestamp. Moreover, sql_time must always be used as part of the
query when sorting the result data set by time or when using conditions (e.g. x.sql_time >
y.sql_time).
Page 340
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
MEAS({measurement_file_name_1}:{file_extension}|{measurement_file_name_2}:{file_
extension}|....) */
The screenshot below shows an example of how the filter should be integrated into a query. An
example of the same query in SQL format is also provided. It should be noted that log file
filtering queries are unnecessary when creating custom SQL queries that are intended for
use with Nemo Analyze only. This is because Nemo Analyze automatically adds the hints to
the queries at runtime.
Page 341
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
The two screenshots below show two versions of the same query. The first one returns values in
numerical format. The second one uses the VAL_TO_STRING(<param_name>, <input column>)
scalar function for retrieving the textual value for each numerical value. The scalar function
VAL_TO_STRING retrieves the value enumeration automatically from the ValueEnum table.
It should be noted that the use of the scalar function VAL_TO_STRING is unnecessary when creating
custom SQL queries that are intended for use with Nemo Analyze only. This is because Nemo Analyze
displays the value enumeration automatically.
10.9.9 Connections
The connection sessions measured during a drive test are stored as connection tables. The following
connections and connection tables exist: Voice, Handover, Attach, PDPContextActivation, Data, RRC,
DataTransfer, MMS, SMS, POC, LAU, RAU, and Ping. The connections often have a hierarchical
Page 342
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
structure. For example, the DataTransfer connection always has the Data Connection table as its
parent connection. The Data Connection table has the PDPContextActivation table as its parent
connection. Finally, the PDPContextActivation table has the Attach table as its parent connection. All
data recorded during a measurement session has by necessity a relation (or relations) with the
connection tables. Examples of such data include Tx power (recorded only during voice call or packet
session), application throughput (recorded only during data transfer), and BLER (recorded only during
packet session and voice call).
As an example, the screenshot below illustrates the relations between the tables DAS and Attach.
Attach is a connection table, containing a row for each Attach session. The DAS table contains a row
for each uplink and downlink application throughput sample. Each row of the DAS table is related to
the corresponding connection in the Attach table via the_connection foreign key. The Attach table has
also relations with the GAA (Attach attempt), GAC (Attach connected), CAD (Attach disconnected),
and CAF (Attach failure) tables. All the different connection tables follow the same principle. They
contain all data specific to a particular session, including the data events that define the beginning and
the end of the session.
Grouping data per session, e.g. average Data throughput per session:
FROM "Nemo"."DAS+"
WHERE "throughput_status"=1
GROUP BY the_connection

NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Filtering in only those throughput samples that were recorded during a data transfer:
Filtering in only those throughput samples that were recorded when PDP context was active and
Access point was Internet:
The two scalar functions utilized in the examples above can be defined as follows:
CONN_IS_SHARED(conn1.”oid”, conn2.”oid”). Checks if the two connections are actually the same, or
if one of the connections is the parent of the other
Generally, for performing correlations of this type, it is recommendable to use Nemo Analyze’s
“Correlate parameters” functionality or the KPI Workbench. However, it is also possible to correlate
the two tables using SQL and proprietary keywords, as explained in the two examples above.
Sample-based correlation
The procedure for correlating two data sets sample by sample based on time is as follows:
1. Define the tables to be joined using a FROM clause: FROM table x, table y
Note that the order in which the tables are entered to the FROM clause is
extremely important. When the table x is the first one in the FROM clause:
Each sample from the table y is retrieved and checked based on the following condition: if there is an
x sample that has the same timestamp as the y sample OR if the x timestamp falls to the validity time
interval of the y sample
When the table y is the first one in the FROM clause, the comparison is performed vice versa
Page 344
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
3. Define the condition x.the_device = y.the_device using a WHERE clause. This limits the time-
based correlation into individual measurement files, improving the performance of the query
and ensuring that the correlation is performed within a single log file.
4. Add the hint /* OPTIONS(USE_TIME_SCOPE) */ at the end of the SQL query. This enables the
join based on time scope.
The following screenshot shows an example correlation of the best active set cell Tx power and RSCP,
filtered from periods where RSCP is < -95 dBm
All Tx power samples that fall within the validity time interval of an RSCP sample with the value
<-95 are retrieved.
Below you can find an example query that returns active set best RSCP from the time instants that
coincide with active data transfer sessions. The time range correlation is performed based on simple
time conditions as part of the WHERE clause of the query. The time condition should be defined using
the column sql_time. The column time cannot be used because it is in a binary format understood by
Nemo Analyze only. Also T_(time) should not be used although it is the actual timestamp. This is
because the query performance with T_(time) is lower than with sql_time because T_(time) does not
use indexing. Note also that the start and end points of the time range need to be joined (see the last
condition in the WHERE clause). In practice this is possible only with tables that have relations with
connection tables.
Page 345
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
The process of creating a new query starts with the identification of relevant input data. The tables
that contain the relevant data can be identified by examining the Nemo Analyze database schema (see
Nemo Analyze database schema). The best way to find the data of interest is to export the schema to
a PDF document and to search the document for the parameter name. The schema describes the
database table by table, column by column, and relation by relation. Please note that the same
parameter can exist in multiple tables, mainly because of the system split, e.g. the tables
“GSM”.”BLER” and “UMTS”.”BLER” both contain the column bler.
The design phase of the new query follows. The source data is appropriately processed based on the
selected tables. The supported SQL syntax is discussed in the reference documents (see Getting
started for more information).
With Nemo Analyze’s extensive set of premade queries, it is most of the time sufficient to only modify
some of the queries found in the Parameters view. The recommended starting point is to first open the
query in a data view. Once the query has been run, the query can be captured in SQL format from the
Log window. To show output from SQL, select SQL in the Log window. If not visible, the Log window
can be enabled by selecting View | Log window from the Ribbonbar. Output from SQL contains all
executed queries in the order of execution (see screenshot below). To copy the contents of the SQL
History view, select the contents, right-click on the selection, and select Copy from the popup menu.
Paste the query to the Nemo Analyze database browser.
If using the Nemo Analyze database browser for query development, the SQL of an existing query can
also be captured using the query clipboard. To do this, open the query of interest in a data view,
right-click on the data view, and select Query | Copy from the popup menu. Paste the query to the
Nemo Analyze database browser.
Page 346
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Timestamp. The binary timestamp time should be retrieved if the query is to be used with Nemo
Analyze. Nemo Analyze converts it automatically to a readable timestamp. Nemo Analyze can also
make use of the validity time interval embedded within the timestamp when drawing line graphs and
map plots, and when calculating statistics. The standard time stamp sql_time should be used with
ORDER BY, WHERE and SELECT clauses if the query is to be used with a third-party tool.
Measurement file filter. If the query is to be used with Nemo Analyze, the limiting of the query to
defined log files must not be done as part of the SQL query, as Nemo Analyze limits the query
automatically at runtime using proprietary hint-based filtering. To achieve optimal performance, it is
recommended that the hints be used also with queries intended for use with third-party tools.
Converting numeric values to corresponding textual values does not have to be done with the
scalar function VALUE_ENUM if the query is to be used with Nemo Analyze. When necessary, Nemo
Analyze automatically converts the numeric values to the corresponding textual values.
Results have to be in chronological order. If a query result set contains the time column and the
results are to be displayed in map, line graph, bar graph or numerical data format, the results must be
ordered by time. Nemo Analyze produces the results automatically in time order, log file by log file.
However, with e.g. the aggregates GROUP BY and UNION, time order is lost and the results must be
rearranged using the clause ORDER BY sql_time.
Correlating more than two tables based on time. Sample-based correlation (described above) enables
two tables without an established relation to be joined based on time. However, with three or more
tables the task becomes impossible. For example, correlating BLER, Ec/N0 and TX power based on
time is impossible with SQL because all of the parameters are located in separate tables with no
established relations between them.
Creating queries that track certain event sequences, such as the change in a particular parameter
value columns from row to row. SQL works well in scalar data processing where mathematical or
logical operations are performed on a row-by-row basis, using different columns of each row as input.
SQL sub queries can be utilized in creating an event to track situations where the system changes
from GSM to UMTS (i.e. where a row contains the serving_system parameter value GSM and the
subsequent row the value UMTS), but the method will cause the performance of the query to collapse.
The state machine element of the KPI Workbench enables such queries to be created with ease and
optimal query performance.
SQL queries are at their best in scalar data processing. If all the required input data is located in the
same table (i.e. time-based correlation based on multiple tables is not necessary), SQL is a good
approach to complex scalar (row-by-row) data processing. Some examples of such tasks can be found
below:
Data filtering. Complex filters can be created using SQL scalar functions and logical operations.
Data reformatting. Query result set columns can be modified and combined using various string and
math functions. Conditional outputs can be created using the SQL statement CASE.
As mentioned earlier, using SQL requires proficiency in SQL and knowledge of the Nemo Analyze
database schema, and even then, the SQL language itself poses some limitations. Therefore, for a
user without previous experience with SQL, KPI Workbench is recommended as the primary data
Page 347
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
customization tool. KPI Workbench avoids the limitations of SQL and offers full functionality also for
data filtering and data reformatting purposes.
You should not limit a query to certain measurement file(s), as Nemo Analyze limits the query
automatically to the measurement files required. This way the query is not statically limited to some
predefined measurement file or files, but instead, it can be run over any given measurement file or
files in the database.
In the Query Manager dialog, select the User item and click Add.
There are different types of queries: you can select a measurement parameter from a list (Pick
measurement parameter), select query data from tables (Generic query wizard), or type the
query string manually (Manual query).
Page 348
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
The Measurement Parameters page displays a list of available parameters. Select a parameter from
the list and click Next. In the Filter field you can type the name or part of the name of the parameter
you are looking for to locate it faster. This is especially useful when the parameter list is long.
In the Fill Parameters dialog you can further limit the query results by adding different filters. All
parameters can be filtered, e.g. based on Area and Time. Filters can be applied to parameters that are
part of the query. Right-click on top of the filter name or value to Add, Modify or Delete filters.

further instructions, see p.408.
Note: In some cases, it may be necessary to create a KPI that correlates two
separate files that do not have any parameters in common (e.g. mobile and
scanner files from the same measurement session). You may also wish to define
value constants, i.e. values that can be referred to in scripts with a generic
reference. If the use of either of these functionalities is necessary in terms of the
KPI you intend to create, it is recommended to see the chapter Defining KPI
execution method and value constants before continuing.

If there is no need to customize parameters, you can open default parameters on either entire raw
parameter data sets or on data sets limited to pre-calculated statistics.
To add a raw parameter data set (containing all samples within the data set), select a measurement
file in Workspace | Measurements, and drag and drop the appropriate parameter to the Workbench
from the Parameters View (located on the bottom left of the screen).
To add a data set limited to pre-calculated statistics on a folder of measurement files, select a folder
in Workspace | Folders, and drag and drop the appropriate parameter to the Workbench from the
Parameters view.
Note: Because different operations often have different requirements on the method of how the data
sets are combined, it is important that the phases Combining Input Data Sets and Adding Operations
are planned together.
With operations that correlate parameters or search values from different parameters from the time
range of a particular data set (namely the correlations Previous, Next and Current Value and All
Values Within Time Range), it is important that the primary data set is placed on the extreme left
compared to the other parameters or data sets connected to the same correlation, operation, etc. For
instance, with the correlation Left Outer Join, all data entries from the data set on the left are included
in the output, and from the secondary parameters or data sets, only the ones that match those of the
Page 363
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
primary data set. Similarly, the correlation All Values Within Time Range produces all values of the
secondary parameters from the time range of the primary (leftmost) parameter or data set.
Secondary

Connecting elements by
dragging connector lines
from output sockets to

In the example above, the Previous Value element is used to examine values of a secondary data set
in relation to the primary data set, the parameter Call Attempt Failure. Thus, the values of the
secondary parameter Ec/N0 Active Set are examined from a time range determined by both the
correlation Previous Value and the primary data set Call Attempt Failure. As the primary data set Call
Attempt Failure consists solely of call attempt failure events and the correlation Previous Value
produces only those values of the secondary parameter Ec/N0 Active Set that immediately precede
events in the primary parameter, the output will consist of Ec/N0 Active Set values preceding the start
time of each Call Attempt Failure event.
To connect the various KPI elements to each other, connect output sockets to input sockets by
pressing the left mouse button down on the output socket of one element and holding it down while
dragging the connector line to the input socket of the other element.
To connect the same set of data to several different operations, simply draw as many connector lines
as needed from the output socket of the data set (see picture below).
Page 364
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Once connected, the elements will turn green to signify that they are operational. If an element
remains red, it requires further configuration. Right-click the element and select Properties from the
popup menu. For more information on configuring individual elements, see the related topic below.
To add a Previous/Current/Next Value element to the KPI, first make sure that the primary parameter
or data set is situated the leftmost compared to the secondary parameters whose values are to be
examined.
Drag and drop the Previous/Current/Next Value element to the Workbench. Connect the primary
data set to the leftmost input socket of the Previous/Current/Next Value element.
Page 365
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Connect the secondary parameters (i.e. the parameters whose previous/current/next values are to be
examined from points in time determined by the primary parameter) to the other input sockets of the
Previous/Current/Next value element.
The Previous/Current/Next Value element changes color from red to green, signifying that the element
is operational. Even if you are still going to add more elements to the KPI, it is recommended to test
the operation of the KPI at this point by connecting it to the Output element. Then, select a
measurement or several measurements from the Measurements section on the Measurements
page of the Workspace. Right-click on the Workbench background, and select Run Script from the
popup menu.

Previous or Current Value/Next or Current Value element.
The Previous or Current Value/Next or Current Value element changes color from red to green,
signifying that the element is operational. Even if you are still going to add more elements to the KPI,
it is recommended to test the operation of the KPI at this point. Connect the KPI to the Output
element. Then, select a measurement or several measurements from the Measurements section on
the Measurements page of the Workspace, right-click on the Workbench background, and select Run
Script from the popup menu.
Page 368
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Generally all parameters of the Nemo file format have a time range. This is because the Nemo
measurement file format is time-based as opposed to sample-based. In other words, a new “sample”
is created on a timeline only when changes occur in the monitored parameter and the temporal length
of the samples depends entirely on how often changes occur in the parameter value. Event
parameters (such as dropped call, call attempt failure, and cell reselection) do not have a time range
as they represent events that occur at a point in time.
A major difference between All Values Within Time Range and the other join elements (namely Inner
Join, Left Outer Join, and Union) is that All Values Within Time Range combines the data based on
time, whereas these other join elements do this based on matching values in the data sets.
To add an All Values Within Time Range element to the KPI, first make sure that the primary
parameter or data set is situated the leftmost compared to the secondary parameters whose values
are to be examined from the time range determined by the primary element.
Note: When deciding which input data set to use as the primary dataset, one
should consider the fact that the output will be written only when there are valid
values in the primary dataset. Therefore, if filtering out data from the secondary
data set is not desirable, the parameter that contains valid samples for the most of
the duration of the log file should be selected as the primary dataset. For example,
selecting RX qual as the primary data set when correlating the parameters RX lev
and RX qual, will produce results only from instances when a call was active. On
the other hand, if RX level is selected as the primary data set, the results will
include both idle periods and periods when a call was active.
If Rx level is selected as primary dataset, results are given both from idle, and call connected periods.
Drag and drop the All Values Within Time Range element to the Workbench.
Connect the primary parameter or data set to the leftmost input socket of the All Values Within Time
Range element.
Connect the secondary parameters or data sets (i.e. the parameters whose values are to be examined
from a time range determined by the primary parameter) to the other input sockets of the element.
Page 369
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
The All Values Within Time Range element changes color from red to green, signifying that the
element is operational.
Even if you are still going to add more elements to the KPI, it is recommended to test the operation of
the KPI at this point. Connect the KPI to the Output element. Then, select a measurement or several
measurements from the Measurements section on the Measurements page of the Workspace,
right-click on the Workbench background, and select Run Script from the popup menu.
To add an Inner Join element to the KPI, first open both of the data sets that are to be combined on a
grid (for opening measurements on a grid, see Viewing Measurement Data on p.61) and consider
which join values (such as identification code, channel number, scrambling code, etc.) you can use as
a basis for the join, i.e. what values do the data sets have in common, what values would form a
logical basis for the join in terms of the KPI’s purpose, etc.
In the example screenshots below, the two tables can be joined based on the scrambling code values
they share.
Page 370
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Connect the data sets that are to be combined to the upper (i.e. input) sockets of the Inner Join
element by pressing the left mouse button down on the output socket of each data set and holding
down the mouse button while dragging a connector line from the data set output socket to the input
socket of the Inner Join element. Right-click the Inner Join element and select Properties from the
popup menu.
Page 371
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
From the Join tab of the Properties dialog, select the join values (i.e. the values that form the basis
for the join) using the Left column and Right column drop-down menus.
After you have defined the properties of the Inner Join element, click OK, and the element changes
color from red to green, signifying that the element is operational. Even if you are still going to add
more elements to the KPI, it is recommended to test the operation of the KPI at this point. Connect
the KPI to the Output element, right-click on the Workbench background, and select Run Script from
the popup menu.
For instance, if two parameters both contain scrambling code information, the parameters can be
joined with Left Outer Join by defining scrambling code as the join value. All rows from the leftmost
parameter are included in the output. From the secondary parameter, only the rows with scrambling
codes that match with those of the left parameter are included.
To add a Left Outer Join element to the KPI, first open both of the data sets that are to be combined
on a grid and consider which join values (such as identification code, channel number or scrambling
code) you can use as a basis for the join, i.e. what values do the data sets have in common, what
values would form a logical basis for the join in terms of the KPI’s purpose, etc.
Page 372
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Drag and drop the Left Outer Join element to the Workbench.
Connect the data sets that are to be combined to the upper (i.e. input) sockets of the Left Outer Join
element by pressing the left mouse button down on the output socket of each data set and holding
down the mouse button while dragging a connector line from the data set output socket to the input
socket of the Left Outer Join element.
Right-click the Left Outer Join element and select Properties from the popup menu.
Note: Depending on the input data sets, it may sometimes be necessary to group the input
data sets based on the join value before using Left Outer Join to combine them. In the
screenshot below, both input data sets have been grouped by scrambling code because
scrambling code is going to be used as the Left Outer Join join value.
From the Join tab of the Properties dialog, select the join values (i.e. the values that form the basis
for the join) using the Left column and Right column drop-down menus.

To add a Union element, drag and drop the Union element to the Workbench.
Connect the data sets that are to be combined to the upper (i.e. input) sockets of the Union element
by pressing the left mouse button down on the output socket of each data set and holding down the
mouse button while dragging a connector line from the data set output socket to the input socket of
the Union element.
The Union element changes color from red to green, signifying that the element is operational.
Because the rows and columns in the unified data set are in no particular order, it is often necessary
to sort the resulting table based on, for instance, time in order to produce meaningful results.
To add a sort element, drag and drop either Ascending or Descending sort element to the
Workbench. Connect the Union element to the sort element. Define the sort element’s properties by
right-clicking the element and selecting Properties. For more information on defining the sort
element’s properties, see p.393.

The Select Measurement dialog opens. Select a measurement from the list and click OK. For more
information on the Select Measurement dialog, see Running and testing KPIs.
As the various KPI elements can be used together in countless different and complex combinations
(with complex state machines, aggregate functions, Cartesian products, sort elements, etc.), you need
to determine what correlations and operations are required and how they should interact in order to
isolate only the relevant parts of the measurement data. For instance, whether a state machine
needed, and if it is, what states would be relevant in terms of the data you are looking for, how should
the transitions from state to state be triggered, what entries in the data would be the most logical or
useful triggers for these transitions, etc. With the State Machine and other more complicated
operations it is often necessary to first open a sample of the kind of measurement data the KPI is
intended for with suitable parameters on a grid to determine how the data progresses and for instance
what data entries should be used as triggers to obtain the most accurate results. For opening
measurements on a grid, see Viewing Measurement Data on p.61.
It is also worth noting that some operations may require a value (e.g. a transition trigger in state
machine) to be defined when defining the operation’s properties. Entering a value to a field of this
type can prove restricting in terms of the various different purposes the KPI could otherwise be used
for. To avoid this problem and effectively create a more versatile KPI with values that can be entered
later on based on the requirements of the KPI’s each individual application, define each value as a
variable by entering the string {?<variable name>} to the value field. This way, the program will
prompt the user to define a value for each value defined as a variable every time the KPI is run.
This makes it possible, for instance, to create a generic state machine to calculate the delay from any
one L3 signaling message to any another. The state machine will prompt the user to define the two
signaling messages each time the KPI is run, enabling the same KPI to be used for calculating delays
between any number of different signaling message pairs.
It should also be kept in mind that the Nemo file format is time-based as opposed to sample-based
(see Correlation: All Values Within Time Range). Because of this, operations should always be
Page 378
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
weighted by time when applicable. If the results are not weighted by time, it will not be possible to
know how long a particular parameter value has been valid and the results of operations such as
Average and Count will not be accurate.
To add a Case element to the KPI, drag and drop the Case element to the Workbench.
Connect the data set to the upper (i.e. input) sockets of the Case element by pressing the left mouse
button down on the output socket of each data set and holding down the mouse button while dragging
a connector line from the data set output socket to the input socket of the Case element.
Right-click the Case element and select Properties from the popup menu. From the Flow Control
tab in the Properties dialog, click the Add button to add a rule.
Column defines the grid column (in the input data set) that contains the values that are compared to
Value based on the rule defined in Operator.
Operator defines the rule that determines which values are filtered out. For instance, with Scrambling
Code (Column) <= 2 (Value), all the values that do not fulfill the condition of being smaller than or
equal to 2 are filtered out.
Page 379
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Value defines the limit value that the Operator compares to the Column value. To define the value
as a variable (i.e. the value is to be defined by the user each time the KPI is run), enter the string
{?<variable name>} to the value field.
Define Case properties and select OK. The Rule Properties dialog closes.
To create another rule, click the Add button again in the Properties dialog and define properties for
the rule. In the example screenshot below, two rules have been defined, each represented by an
output socket of the Case element.
The element changes color from red to green, signifying that the element is operational. Even if you
are still going to add more elements to the KPI, it is recommended to test the operation of the KPI at
this point. Connect the KPI to the Output element. Then, select a measurement or several
measurements from the Measurements section on the Measurements page of the Workspace, right-
click on the Workbench background, and select Run Script from the popup menu. For more
information, see Running and testing KPIs.
To add a Moving Average element to the KPI, drag and drop the Moving Average element to the
Workbench.
Connect the data set to the upper (i.e. input) sockets of the Moving Average element by pressing the
left mouse button down on the output socket of each data set and holding down the mouse button
while dragging a connector line from the data set output socket to the input socket of the Moving
Average element.
To define Moving Average properties, right-click the Moving Average element and select Properties
from the popup menu.
Page 380
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Column defines the grid column (in the input data set) from which the moving average is to be
calculated.
Samples defines how many surrounding values will be sampled when calculating the average for each
point in time.
The element changes color from red to green, signifying that the element is operational. Even if you
are still going to add more elements to the KPI, it is recommended to test the operation of the KPI at
this point. Connect the KPI to the Output element. Then, select a measurement or several
measurements from the Measurements section on the Measurements page of the Workspace,
right-click on the Workbench background, and select Run Script from the popup menu.
To add a Conversion element to the KPI, drag and drop the Conversion element to the Workbench.
Connect the data set to the upper (i.e. input) sockets of the Conversion element by pressing the left
mouse button down on the output socket of each data set and holding down the mouse button while
dragging a connector line from the data set output socket to the input socket of the Conversion
element.
Page 381
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
To define Conversion properties, right-click the Conversion element and select Properties from the
popup menu.
Column defines the grid column (in the input data set) that contains the values that are to be
converted.
Target type defines the target data type to which the data within the column (defined in Column)
will be converted. Possible target types include integer, real (i.e. decimal), and string (i.e. text).
After you have defined the properties of the Conversion element, click OK, and the element changes
color from red to green, signifying that the element is now operational. Even if you are still going to
add more elements to the KPI, it is recommended to test the operation of the KPI at this point.
Connect the KPI to the Output element. Then, select a measurement or several measurements from
the Measurements section on the Measurements page of the Workspace, right-click on the
Workbench background, and select Run Script from the popup menu.
For the state machine to work properly, it is recommended that the states and transitions are
conceptually mapped (e.g. in the form of a flow chart, with references to events that trigger the
transitions and define the boundaries of the states) beforehand based on grid data. Open the data set
you are interested in on a grid (for opening measurements on a grid, see Viewing Measurement Data)
and decide which value, signaling message name, event_ID, etc. is going to trigger which transition
between which states. For instance, a transition could be triggered by an Ec/N0 value or an L3
signaling Message Name.
It is also very important that there is always a returning transition from each state in case the
conditions of the transitions to the state are not fulfilled anymore. This ensures accurate results and
the correct operation of the state machine.

After the operation of the State Machine has been conceptually mapped (see flow chart above), drag
and drop State Machine to the Workbench.
With State Machine it is important that the input data set is sorted based on time. Open the data set
you are interested in on a grid and check whether it is sorted by time. If not, sort the input data set
based on time by adding a sort element (i.e. Ascending or Descending, see p. 393) between the
input data set and the State Machine.
Connect the data set to the upper (i.e. input) sockets of the State Machine element by pressing the
mouse button down on the output socket of each data set and holding down the mouse button while
dragging a connector line from the data set output socket to the input socket of the State Machine
element.
Right-click the State Machine element and select Properties from the popup menu.
First, create all the required states. To create a new state, click the Add button.
Page 383
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Enter a name for the state in the Name field and click OK. The State dialog closes. To create another
state, click the Add button again in the Properties dialog.
Note: Repeat these steps until you have created all the states you are going to
need. You should have at least an idle state (i.e. a state that is not of interest to
you) and an active state (i.e. a state that is in the focus of your analysis).
Next, select the idle state as the Initial State from the drop-down menu. To start defining transitions
between states, select one of the states and click the Modify button.
Page 384
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Time trigger defines a transition that is triggered if the condition is not fulfilled within the defined
time period (in milliseconds).
Output defines a title for the state that will be displayed in the final output data set. If the field is left
blank, no output will be generated from this transition. For instance, with the idle state, leave this field
blank. With the state(s) that interest you, be sure to define a title for the state. The output data set
generated based on a state is defined as follows. When a transition occurs from the state x to state y,
the point in time when the transition occurred from state x to state y (start_time), the point in time
when the transition occurred from the state y to the next state, and the time in milliseconds that
passed while in the state y (time_interval) are recorded in the output data set. Depending on the
application of the state machine, different columns may be useful. When using state machine to create
a custom event, the start_time is usually needed in the results to indicate the timestamp when the
event occurred. State machine can be also used to calculate delay of certain procedure, for example
radio bearer establishment in UMTS. In such case, state machine must be defined so that there is a
state that is entered when radio bearer establishment begins, and the state is left when radio bearer
Page 385
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
is established. In this example, time_interval output column directly indicates the delay of radio
bearer establishment in milliseconds.
Left Column defines the grid column (in the input data set) that contains the values that are
compared to a value defined in Value, or another column defined in Right column, based on the rule
defined in Operator.
Operator defines the rule that determines what kind of relationship there has to exist between the
values in Left Column and Right column/Value for the transition to be triggered (and for the
present state to end). For instance, with the L3 Signaling message (Left Column) = CALL ATTEMPT
(Value), the transition to the next state occurs when the value CALL ATTEMPT is found in the column
L3 Signaling.
Right column allows you to define a column to which the values in the Left Column are compared.
If <Value> is selected, the Left Column value is compared to the value entered in the Value field. If
<Previous value> is selected, and used with the Operator != (i.e. not equal to), the condition is
fulfilled when the value in the Left Column changes.
Value defines the value that triggers the transition, i.e. the end of one state and the beginning of a
new one. To define the value as a variable (i.e. the value is to be defined by the user each time the
KPI is run), enter the string {?<variable name>} to the value field. Note that each transition should
have a unique variable name.
Page 386
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
To define another condition for the same transition, click the Add button again, and a new Condition
dialog opens. Define condition properties in the Condition dialog and click OK.
To define the AND/OR relationship between the conditions, right-click on the AND element.
When you have defined all the conditions for the transition, click OK to return to the State dialog.
Repeat the steps to define transitions and conditions from each state you have created.
Finally, when all the transitions and transition conditions have been defined, click OK in the
Properties dialog. The State Machine element changes color from red to green, signifying that the
element is operational.
Even if you are still going to add more elements to the KPI, it is recommended to test the operation of
the KPI at this point. Connect the KPI to the Output element. Then, select a measurement or several
measurements from the Measurements section on the Measurements page of the Workspace,
right-click on the Workbench background, and select Run Script from the popup menu
The Select Measurement dialog opens. Select a measurement from the list and click OK. For more
information, see Running and testing KPIs.
For a practical example, see Use Case 22: Creating a KPI for dropped calls resulting from a missing
handover.

NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
First, combine the parameter data sets into a single data set by dragging and dropping a relevant
correlation element (e.g. All Values Within Time Range) to the Workbench. For more information on
correlation elements, see Combining input data sets.
With All Values Within Time Range, connect the primary parameter or data set to the leftmost input
socket of the All Values Within Time Range element. Connect the secondary parameters or data sets
(i.e. the parameters whose values are to be examined from a time range determined by the primary
parameter) to the other input sockets of the element.
Next, add a Group By element to the KPI by dragging and dropping the element to the Workbench.
Connect the correlation element (i.e. the data set that combines all the individual parameter data
sets) to the Group By element by pressing the left mouse button down on the output socket of the
correlation element and holding down the mouse button while dragging a connector line from the
correlation element output socket to the input socket of the Group By element.
Right-click the Group By element and select Properties from the popup menu.
Page 388
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Input displays all parameters within the input data set. From these parameters, you can select
parameters to the Group By and Aggregates categories.
Group by defines how the parameter aggregates defined in Aggregates are to be grouped. For
instance, when calculating an Ec/N0 average per scrambling code, the aggregate function Average
would have the following settings: Group by: scrambling_code and Aggregates: ec/no (with the
aggregate function Average selected from the Function drop-down menu). To define a parameter as a
basis for grouping, select a parameter in the Input field and press the button. To remove a
grouping parameter, select the parameter in the Group by field and press the button. There can
be multiple grouping parameters. The order in which the grouping parameters are entered is also
important, as every grouping parameter hierarchically determines also the grouping of the subsequent
grouping parameters.
Aggregates defines the aggregate parameters. To add a parameter to Aggregates, select a
parameter in the Input field and press the button. To define parameter aggregate properties,
select the parameter in the Aggregates field and define aggregate properties using Function,
Weight by, and Result title. Once the properties of a single parameter aggregate have been
defined, start defining the next one by simply selecting another parameter from the Input field and
clicking the button. To remove a parameter aggregate, select the parameter in the Aggregates
field and press the button. For more information on defining the properties of aggregate
elements, see Aggregate Functions.
Function defines the aggregate function applied to the selected parameter in the Aggregates field.
Function properties are defined using Weight by and Result title.
Weight by defines the how the calculation is to be weighted, i.e. by time, distance (based on GPS
coordinates), etc. Weight by is usually used only with the aggregate functions Average and Count.
Page 389
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Note: Because the Nemo measurement file format is time-based as opposed to sample-based (i.e. a
“sample” is created on a timeline only when changes occur in the monitored parameters), the
aggregate functions Average and Count should be weighted by time in order to obtain accurate
results.
Result title defines a title for the result. Without a title, the parameter aggregate will not be
operational.
In the example below, three ec/n0-based aggregates (ec/no minimum, maximum, and average) and
three tx_power -based aggregates (tx power minimum, maximum, and average) have been defined.
These have been grouped based on two parameters: bts_site_name and bts_cell_name. As the
parameter bts_site_name is the uppermost, all other parameters, i.e. the grouping parameter
bts_cell_name and the six parameter aggregates, will be grouped based on bts_site_name in the
resulting data set. In addition to this, the parameter aggregates will also be grouped based on the
parameter bts_cell_name, as bts_cell_name is a grouping parameter.
With the settings above, the resulting data set will look like this.
Once the properties of the Group By element have been defined, select OK.
Page 390
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
The Group By element changes color from red to green, which means that it is operational. Test the
operation of the KPI this far by connecting it to the Output element (even if you are still going to add
more elements). Then, select a measurement or several measurements from the Measurements
section on the Measurements page of the Workspace, right-click on the Workbench background, and
select Run Script from the popup menu.
To add an aggregate element to the KPI, drag and drop the element to the Workbench.
Connect the data set(s) on which the calculation is to be performed to the upper (i.e. input) sockets of
the aggregate element by pressing the left mouse button down on the output socket of each data set
and holding down the mouse button while dragging a connector line from the data set output socket
to the input socket of the aggregate element.
Page 391
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Right-click the aggregate element and select Properties from the popup menu.
Column defines the column on which the calculation is going to be performed. In most cases, the
parameter present in the list (such as bler, ec/no, etc.) is selected. The symbol * is selected only with
the aggregate function Count when null values are to be included in the count. If null values are to be
left out of the count, select the parameter.
Group by defines how the value type defined in Column is to be grouped. For instance, when
calculating an Ec/N0 average per scrambling code, the aggregate function Average would have the
following settings: Column: ec/no, Group by: scrambling_code, and Weight by: time.
Weight by defines the how the calculation is to be weighted, i.e. by time, distance (based on GPS
coordinates), etc. Weight by is usually used only with the aggregate functions Average and Count.
Page 392
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Result title defines a title for the result. Without a title, the aggregate element will not be
operational.
The element changes color from red to green, signifying that the element is operational. Even if you
are still going to add more elements to the KPI, it is recommended to test the operation of the KPI at
this point. Connect the KPI to the Output element. Then, select a measurement or several
measurements from the Measurements section on the Measurements page of the Workspace,
right-click on the Workbench background, and select Run Script from the popup menu.

right-click on the Workbench background, and select Run Script from the popup menu.
10.12.19 Filters
Filter makes it possible to filter out all the values from a data set that do not fulfill the defined
condition(s). For instance, a filter for Scrambling Code <= 2 would AND Scrambling Code > 0 would
filter out all other scrambling codes than 1 and 2.
To add a Filter element to the KPI, drag and drop the Filter element to the Workbench.
Connect the data set to the upper (i.e. input) sockets of the Filter element by pressing the left mouse
button down on the output socket of each data set and holding down the mouse button while dragging
a connector line from the data set output socket to the input socket of the Filter element.
Page 394
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Right-click the Filter element and select Properties from the popup menu.
Left column defines the grid column (in the input data set) that contains the values that are
compared to Value (or to another column if a column name is selected in the Right column drop-
down menu instead <Value>) based on the rule defined in Operator.
Page 395
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Operator defines the condition that determines which values are filtered out. For instance, with
Scrambling Code (Column) <= 21 (Value), all the values that do not fulfill the condition of being
smaller than or equal to 21 are filtered out.
Right column defines the data to which the data defined in the Left column is compared.
<Previous value> defines the filter condition based on a comparison between the value in the Left
column and the value preceding it (also in the Left column). <Value> enables you to enter a
numerical limit value in the Value field (see below). The drop-down menu displays also parameter
names based on the parameter data available in the input data set. Selecting one of the parameter
names defines the comparison to be performed between the data selected in the Left column and the
data selected in the Right column.
Value defines the limit value that the Operator compares to the Left Column value. To define the
value as a variable (i.e. the value is to be defined by the user each time the KPI is run), enter the
string {?<variable name>} to the Value field.
Alternatively, if no more conditions are required, click OK to return to the Workbench view.
Page 396
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
The logic of the filter element follows that of a binary tree. Thus, one node can always have only two
child nodes.
If a third child node, i.e. condition, is added, another level is automatically added to the tree.
Individual nodes can be dragged and dropped from one level or node to another.
Page 397
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
To define AND/OR relationships between the nodes, right-click on a logical operator, i.e. AND/OR,
and select AND or OR from the popup menu.
You are also able to select several filters and then group them by right-clicking the Group option from
the context menu. A line will appear in the left-hand corner to signify grouping. You can also ungroup
filters by right-clicking Ungroup from the context menu.
Once all the required conditions have been defined, click OK to return to the Workbench view.
The Filter element changes color from red to green, which means that it is operational.

going to add more elements). Then, select a measurement or several measurements from the
Measurements section on the Measurements page of the Workspace, right-click on the Workbench
background, and select Run Script from the popup menu.
For more information on the Select Measurement dialog, see Running and testing KPIs.
For a practical example, see Use Case 21: Creating complex filters using multiple conditions.
Top-N and Bottom-N list a defined number of best/worst entries in a predefined column of a data
set, filtering out all other data entries.
Nth Best and Nth Worst produce only the Nth best/Nth worst value entry from a defined column in a
data set.
To add a filter element to the KPI, drag and drop the element to the Workbench.
Connect the data set(s) on which the calculation is to be performed to the upper (i.e. input) sockets of
the filter element by pressing the left mouse button down on the output socket of each data set and
holding down the mouse button while dragging a connector line from the data set output socket to the

Page 399
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Right-click the filter element and select Properties from the popup menu.
N enables you, depending on the filter, either to define the number of best/worst data entries to be
listed from a column in a data set, or to specify the position on such list that is of interest to you (i.e.
the Nth best/worst value of a column in a data set).
Column defines the column from which the filter will, depending on the filter, produce either an N
number of best or worst value entries (i.e. Top-N, Bottom-N) or the Nth best/worst value (i.e. Nth
Best, Nth Worst). In most cases, the parameter present in the list (such as bler, ec/no, etc.) is
selected.
Group by defines how the value type defined in Column is to be grouped. For instance, to produce
the best two Ec/N0 values per each scrambling code, the Top-N filter would have the following
settings: N: 2, Column: ec/no, Group by: scrambling_code.

Left column defines the parameter or data set on which the calculation will be performed.
Right column defines the value by which the Left column value is multiplied, divided, etc. Select
<Value> to manually define the value in the Right value field. Otherwise, select a value from the
drop-down menu.
Right value defines the value by which the Left column value is multiplied, divided, etc. when
<Value> is selected in Right column. To define the value as a variable (i.e. the value is defined by
the user each time the KPI is run), enter the string {?<variable name>} to the value field.
Result title defines a title for the column displaying the results in the output data set.
Left (<<) and right (>>) bit shifting performs bit shift on the data set defined as the Left column
in the element properties. Right column should be set to <value>. The value entered into the Right
value field defines the number of digits shifted. For example, the Right value defined as 3 in a right
(>>) bit shift element would perform in the input data set a three-digit shift to the right.
The Ceiling function rounds a real number to the next larger integer based on each of the values in
the column defined as the Left column in the element properties. Right column should be set to
<value>. The value entered into the Right value field defines the rounding method, i.e. 1 defines
rounding to the next integer, 10 defines rounding based on ten, etc.
The Floor rounds a real number to the next smaller integer based on each of the values in the column
defined as the Left column in the element properties. Right column should be set to <value>. The
value entered into the Right value field defines the rounding method, i.e. 1 defines rounding to the
next integer, 10 defines rounding based on ten, etc.
The Log (logarithm) function calculates the logarithm of each of the values in the column defined as
the Left column in the element properties. Right column should be set to <value>. The value
entered into the Right value field defines the base for the logarithm.
Exponentiation performs exponentiation on each of the values in the column defined as the Left
column in the element properties. Right column should be set to <value>. The value entered into
the Right value field defines the exponent.
Root performs an Nth root (square root, cube root, etc.) operation on each of the values in the
column defined as the Left column in the element properties. Right column should be set to
<value>. The value entered into the Right value field defines the root, e.g. 2 defines the operation
as square root.
The Round function performs rounding of a real number to the nearest integer based on each of the
values in the column defined as the Left column in the element properties. If the fraction part of the
number is <0.5, the number is rounded to the next smaller integer. If the fraction part is >=0.5, the
number is rounded to the next larger integer. Right column should be set to <value>. The value
entered into the Right value field defines the rounding method, i.e. 1 defines rounding to the next
integer, 10 defines rounding based on ten, etc.

Time offset enables you to define an offset in relation to the point in time the event occurred.
Selecting backward from the drop-down menu defines the offset point before the event. Selecting
forward from the drop-down menu defines the offset point after the event. Define the distance of the
offset point from the event by entering an amount of time in the time field and by setting unit of time
as either seconds (s) or milliseconds (ms).
Duration allows you to define the direction and length of the time range from the offset point defined
in Time offset. Selecting backward from the drop-down menu defines the time range as ending to
the offset point defined in Time offset. Selecting forward from the drop-down menu defines the time
range as beginning from the offset point (defined in Time offset). Define the length of the time range
from the offset point (defined in Time offset) by entering an amount of time in the time field and by
setting unit of time as either seconds (s) or milliseconds (ms).
For example, to define a time range that begins 10 seconds before the event and ends 10 seconds
after the event, define Time offset as backward 10 s and Duration as forward 20 s.
The element changes color from red to green, signifying that the element is operational. Even if you

Once the script has been successfully run, there is a good opportunity for fine-tuning the KPI based on
the output, for instance, by adding a sort element to the KPI to make the results more explicit,
defining even more optimal states and triggers if using the state machine, or further filtering the data
if the output still contains irrelevant information. You can also hide irrelevant columns in the output
data set by double-clicking on the Output element and clearing the irrelevant columns on the Results
tab of the Properties dialog. Ideally, the KPI should produce only the target data without any
irrelevant information and in as explicit form as possible.
Note: In order for the component to work properly as part of a KPI, it must be operational and
complete with Parameter and Output elements when saved.

NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Name defines the reference string which is replaced by the constant value (e.g. 10000, see
screenshot below) in a script. In script, the usage of the reference string example is {$example}.
Click OK.
The Constants field now displays a row with the reference string example.
Click the content field (on the right of the reference string), enter the constant value (e.g. 1000), and
press Enter.
The constant example can now be referred to with the string {$example} when defining the
properties of various KPI elements. For example, when defining a filter element, the reference string
can be used instead of the actual value 10000.
The following example creates a filter that filters out all scrambling codes other than those belonging
to the ranges 12-21, 29-30, and 74-88. As a formula, the logic can be presented in the following
format: (scr. code<=21 AND scr. code > 11) OR (scr. code<=30 AND scr. code >= 29) OR
(scr. code <=88 AND scr. code >= 74).
To add a Filter element to the KPI, drag and drop the Filter element to the Workbench.
Page 412
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Connect the data set to the upper (i.e. input) sockets of the Filter element by pressing the left mouse
button down on the output socket of each data set and holding down the mouse button while dragging
a connector line from the data set output socket to the input socket of the Filter element.
Right-click the Filter element and select Properties from the popup menu.
Page 413
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Define the first condition, e.g. scr. code <= 21, and select OK.
Define the second condition, e.g. scr. code > 11, and select OK.
Page 414
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
The first of the three value ranges, i.e. 12-21, has now been defined. The logic of the filter element
follows that of a binary tree, and thus one node can always have only two child nodes. In other words,
as the first already defined condition pair takes up one of the two possible nodes on the highest level,
there can be only one available node left on that level. However, in order for us to be able to create a
filter that can accommodate also situations where there are values from only one of the ranges, three
nodes of equal importance are needed, one for each value range. We can accomplish this by adding
the two remaining condition pairs, i.e. (scr. code<=30 AND scr. code >= 29) and (scr. code
<=88 AND scr. code >= 74) as children to the remaining free higher-level node. In practice, the
original formula is restructured in the following manner: (scr. code<=21 AND scr. code > 11) OR
((scr. code<=30 AND scr. code >= 29) OR (scr. code <=88 AND scr. code >= 74)).
Next, the second higher-level node is created as a parent for the remaining two condition pairs. To
create the second higher level node, select one of the two existing conditions and click Add.
Define the condition, e.g. scr. code <= 30, in the Condition dialog and click OK.
Page 415
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
The new condition is automatically added as the second higher-level node. (This is because the node
selected before clicking the Add button in the previous phase already contained the maximum of two
child nodes.)
As the filter should be able to accommodate also situations where there are values from only one of
the ranges, the logical operator between the two higher-level nodes must be changed to OR.
To change the logical operator, right-click on the operator and select the intended operator from the
popup menu.
Page 416
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Next, to complete the second condition pair, select the previously created condition, i.e. scr. code <=
30, and click Add. Define the condition, i.e. scr. code >= 29, in the Condition dialog and click OK.
Again, as the filter should be able to accommodate also situations where there are values from only
one of the ranges, the logical operator must be changed to OR.
Page 417
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
To create the remaining condition pair, i.e. 74-88, select one of the conditions in the latest pair and
click Add.
Define the condition, i.e. scr. code >= 74, in the Condition dialog and click OK.
Next, to complete the third condition pair, select the previously created condition, i.e. scr. code >=
74, and click Add. Define the condition, i.e. scr. code <=88, in the Condition dialog and click OK.
Page 418

The Filter element changes color from red to green, which means that it is operational.
Test the operation of the KPI this far by connecting it to the Output element (even if you are still
going to add more elements). Select a measurement or several measurements from the
Measurements section on the Measurements page of the Workspace. Right-click on the Workbench
background, and select Run Script from the popup menu. For more information, see Running and

10.12.30 Use Case 22: Creating a KPI for dropped calls resulting
from a missing handover
This use case describes the steps for creating a KPI for dropped calls resulting from a missing
handover.
To open the KPI Workbench, select Tools | KPI workbench from the Ribbonbar.
Thus, the relevant parameters are BLER and, to be able to compare the Ec/N0 value of the active set
to the absolute best Ec/N0 value of both the active and monitored sets, both Ec/N0 best active set and
Ec/N0 1. best. In other words, if Ec/N0 1. best is better than Ec/N0 best active set, the handover has
not occurred. The value can be produced by subtracting Ec/N0 1. best from Ec/N0 active set. In other
words, if the result of the subtraction of Ec/N0 1. best from Ec/N0 best active set is smaller than zero,
a better Ec/N0 value exists than that of the active set.
Isolating missing handovers from the data will be necessary in order for it to be possible to correlate
missing handovers with dropped calls. This is best achieved by using the state machine. Missing
handover will be defined as a state and thus isolated from the data. In addition to this state, the
operation of the state machine requires also an idle state to make the transitions from state to state
possible. As Bad BLER values by necessity precede missing handovers, a state for Bad BLER might
also be useful. Thus, the state machine will use three states: OK, Bad BLER, and Missing handover.
For the transitions to occur from state to state, you have to decide what values will trigger them. In
other words, what value is considered good, bad, etc. and which transition it will trigger. For the
purposes of this use case, a BLER value that is greater or equal to 20 is considered bad and an Ec/N0
difference that is smaller than zero is considered to signify a missing handover.
Thus, the transition from the ‘normal’ state OK to the missing handover prerequisite state Bad BLER
should be triggered by a bad BLER value (i.e. when BLER is greater or equal to 20). For the transition
to occur from Bad BLER to the actual Missing handover, also the Ec/N0 difference will have to be
smaller than zero. If however either one of the trigger values improves, the state machine should
return to the relevant state. Thus three more transitions are needed, one for returning from the state
Bad BLER if BLER improves, one for returning from the state Missing Handover to Bad BLER if the
Ec/N0 difference value improves but the BLER value remains bad, and one to return from the state
Missing handover straight to the state OK if BLER improves.
It is very important that there is always a returning transition from each state in case the conditions of
the transitions to the state are not fulfilled anymore. This ensures accurate results and the correct
operation of the state machine.
Page 420
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
It is also recommended to always plan the operation of the state machine in the form of a flow chart,
complete with trigger values. See an example below.
Ec/N0 difference
<0
BLER >= 20
BLER < 20
Once the missing handovers have been isolated from the data using the state machine, it will be
necessary to correlate the missing handover events with the parameter Call dropped to find out if any
of the dropped calls in the data occurred while a handover was missing.
From the Parameters view, drag and drop the parameters BLER, Ec/N0 best active and Ec/N0 Nth best
to the Workbench.
Page 421
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
When you drag and drop the parameter Ec/N0 Nth best to the Workbench, the Analyze Wizard –
Filters dialog opens.
Make sure the Value field contains the value 1 and select Finish.
From the Correlations menu, drag and drop All Values Within Time Range to the Workbench and
drag connector lines from the output sockets of the parameters Ec/N0 best active set and Ec/N0 Nth
best to its input sockets by holding the left mouse button down.
Page 422
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Right-click on the Subtraction element and select Properties from the popup menu. The Properties
dialog opens.
From the Left column drop-down menu, select ec/no. From the Right column drop-down menu, select
1. best Ec/N0. Leave the Right value field empty. Type Ec/N0 difference to the Result title field.
At this point, there are two input data sets: BLER and Ec/N0 difference. To combine these data sets
into a single data set, you need to select a correlation method that does not remove any data from
either of the sets, namely Union.
Page 423
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
From the Joins menu, drag and drop Union to the Workbench and connect BLER and Ec/N0
difference to it.
To test the output at this point, connect the Union element to the Output element. Then, select a
measurement or several measurements from the Measurements section on the Measurements
page of the Workspace. Right-click on the Workbench background, and select Run Script from the
popup menu. The output grid opens as a new workbook.
Page 424
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
From the output grid, it is evident that although the two tables and their time columns have been
merged, the rows are not ordered by time. As most operations require the input data to be ordered by
time, you need to sort the data set before performing any further operations on it.
Page 425
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
From the Sorting menu, drag and drop the Ascending sort element to the Workbench and connect
the Union element to it.
Right-click on the Ascending sort element and select Properties from the drop-down menu.
Page 426

To create a state called OK, type OK to the Name field and click OK.
In the Properties dialog, click Add again. In the State dialog, type Bad BLER to the Name field and
click OK.
Again, in the Properties dialog, click Add. In the State dialog, type Missing handover to the Name
field and click OK.
All states have now been created. As the state OK serves the function of the idle state in this use
case, select the state OK from the Initial state drop-down menu. This defines OK as the starting
point for the operation of the state machine.
Next, define a condition that has to be fulfilled in order for the state machine to move from the Initial
State (i.e. the state OK) to the state Bad BLER. To define transitions from the state OK, select OK
from the States field, and click Modify.
An empty State dialog opens. The name of the state, i.e. OK, is displayed in the Name field.
Page 430
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Next, define the target state (i.e. the state to which the transition occurs) by selecting Bad BLER
from the Target drop-down menu. Because the only relevant state in terms of the KPI is Missing
handover and the output should not include any data from the state OK, leave the Output field
empty.
Next, define the condition that causes the transition to occur from the state OK to the state Bad BLER.
For the purposes of this use case, it has been decided that for a BLER value to be considered bad, it
Page 431
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
has to be 20 or more. To define this as a transition condition, select bler from the Column drop-down
menu, select >= (i.e. greater or equal) from the Operator drop-down menu, and type the value 20
to the Value field.
When the condition has been defined, click OK to return to the Transition dialog.
As there is no need to define any more conditions for the transition from the state OK to the state Bad
BLER, click OK in the Transition dialog to return to the State dialog.
In the State dialog, the transition to Bad BLER is now displayed in the Transitions field.
As there is no need to define any more transitions from the state OK, click OK in the State dialog to
return to the Properties dialog.
Page 432
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
To define transitions from the state Bad BLER, select Bad BLER in the Properties dialog, and click the
Modify button.
Again, an empty State dialog opens. The name of the state, i.e. Bad BLER, is displayed in the Name
field.
Two transitions are needed from the state Bad BLER: one that returns to the initial state OK in case
the BLER value is less than 20 again, and another to move from the state Bad BLER to the state
Missing handover if the Ec/N0 difference between the best active set and the absolute best set is less
than 0.
Page 433
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Next, define the target state (i.e. the state to which the transition occurs) by selecting Missing
handover from the Target drop-down menu. Because the only relevant state in terms of the KPI is
Missing handover and the output should not include any data from the state Bad BLER, leave the
Output field empty. Click the Add button.
Define the condition for the transition from the state Bad BLER to the state OK. Select bler from the
Column drop-down menu, select < (i.e. smaller than) from the Operator drop-down menu, and type
the value 20 to the Value field.
When the condition has been defined, click OK to return to the Transition dialog.
Page 434

Page 436
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
To define transitions from the state Missing handover, select Missing handover in the Properties
dialog and click the Modify button.
Two transitions are needed from the state Missing handover: one that returns to the initial state OK in
case the BLER value is less than 20 again, and another to move from the state Missing handover to
the state Bad BLER if the Ec/N0 difference between the best active set and the absolute best set is
greater or equal to 0.
Page 437
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Define the target state (i.e. the state to which the transition occurs) by selecting OK from the Target
drop-down menu. As the output should include the data from the state Missing handover, enter the
name Missing handover to the Output field.
Once the target state has been defined, click Add to add a condition for the transition.
Define the transition from the state Missing handover to the state OK. Select bler from the Column

The transition to Bad BLER is now displayed in the Transitions field of the State dialog.
Click the OK button to return to the Properties dialog. Click the OK button in the Properties dialog.
The State Machine element is now operational.
The states where the BLER value rises and a handover is missing have now been isolated. To find the
events where missing handovers lead to dropped calls, we need to add the parameter Call dropped to
the KPI.
Page 440
NEMO ANALYZE USER MANUAL
Drag and drop the parameter Call dropped from the Parameters view to the KPI Workbench.
As the only relevant dropped calls in terms of the KPI are the ones that occur during the state Missing
handover, the most optimal correlation for combining these two data sets is All Values Within Time
Range.
Drag and drop an All Values Within Time Range element from the Correlations menu to the KPI
Workbench. For the output data set to include all Missing handover time ranges and only those
dropped call events that occur during these time ranges, the state machine has to be the primary data
set and the parameter Call dropped the secondary one.
Connect the state machine to the leftmost input socket of the All Values Within Time Range element.
Connect the parameter Call dropped to the next socket. Finally, connect the All Values Within Time
Range element to the Output element.

10.13 Analytics
Analytics feature is part of the Nemo Analyze Professional feature package.
Analytics consists of new summary tables in the Analyze database for voice/video call, data, MMS,
SMS, and handover events. The information in the Analytics tables is essentially the same as in the
standard database tables. The key difference is that Analytics tables do not have the physical per
measurement file federation as the standard tables. This makes Analytics queries to execute
significantly faster over large (>100 log files) datasets when comparing to corresponding standard
queries.
Analytics tables are populated with queries executed over the standard tables. Thus the process has
two steps, first the log file(s) are loaded into the Nemo Analyze database as before. Then,
AnalyzeAnalytics.exe, a process running on the background, will automatically detect new files added
to the database, and run a set of queries over the files and save the query results into the Analytics
tables. Analytics can be enabled from the View | Options | Database | Queries | Use Analytics to
preprocess measurement data.
Analytics tables are visible for the end user via new set of queries in the Parameters view, under
Analytics branch. The queries can be used to plot events on the map, calculated statics, etc. in a
similar manner as standard queries. Analytics queries can be also used in custom workbooks and
report templates.
Note that the file loaded to the database cannot be queried with Analytics queries immediately after it
appears in the database. There is an additional delay to process the files, that is, to run the queries to
populate Analytics tables. The extra delay is approximately 4min per 1 hour of raw log file data.

15 FAQ
Q: How soon are changes in the Nemo File Format implemented to Nemo Analyze?
A: Changes in the Nemo File Format are implemented very quickly to Nemo Analyze and there is no
need to reload any data in the database.
Q: I opened a parameter on a map but the samples are shown without color coding?
A: If you opened data on the map through the Analyze Wizard (right-click on a device in workspace |
Pick Parameter) and selected a map instead of the default view, only the selected parameters or
events are displayed. You should first open a map and then drag and drop a measurement file on the
map. Then use color sets to highlight parameter values on the route.

19 APPENDIX 3
In practice, many of the data elements are written to the log file in a periodic manner with the
minimum sampling interval. For example, signal strength and quality of serving and neighboring
cells are all written in the same event with GSM, UMTS, and other technologies. In other words, an
event containing information on all of them is written whenever the signal strength of the serving or
one of the neighboring cells changes. In a real-life scenario, these values are constantly changing,
and hence signal strength is in practice written to the log file in a periodic manner.
However, with certain parameters the event-based data recording can have practical effects. For
example, GSM parameter Rx Quality behaves in a fairly stable manner in good network conditions.
The value is 0 (the best possible quality) for long constant time intervals, interrupted by short
peaks of interference during which higher Rx Quality values are recorded.
In good signal conditions, the following pattern could occur: At the beginning of the call, an event
with the time stamp 0 seconds and the Rx Quality value 0 is recorded. After 90 seconds, an
interference peak occurs and the RX quality value 5 is recorded. After 10 seconds, with the time
stamp 100.5 seconds, the call ends. In this case, only three RX Quality values are written during
the whole call. The values, and their durations are: 0/90s, 5/0.5s, 0/10s. The average of the three
samples would be (0 + 5 + 0)/3 = 1.667. However, this result would be incorrect because the three
samples are not of equal weight. The value 5 was valid only for 0,5 seconds; the value 0 was valid
for a total of 100 seconds. Thus, the correct average is calculated by weighting each sample with its
duration: (0*90+5*0.5+0*10)/(90+0.5+10) = 0.025. More generally, the weighted average of
values in a Nemo log file is calculated in the following manner:
S *d i i
S Mean i
, where d is the duration of the sample, in time or distance.
d i
i
To process data produced by Nemo logging tools correctly, one must take the event-based nature
of the data into account, and weight each value with its duration. This is done automatically in
Nemo Outdoor and Nemo Analyze. In practice this means that in a line graph, the line drawn based
on a sample remains constant until the next sample, i.e. for the duration of the sample.
With map plots, a stretch of measurement route is colored based on the duration of a sample.
When calculating averages, cumulation, or density histograms in Nemo Analyze and Nemo Outdoor,
each sample is weighted with its duration. It should be noted that the duration can be in time or in
distance, depending on how the data is to be used. If the samples from the entire measurement
route are to have equal weight and for instance the weighting effect of time spent at traffic lights is
to be excluded, the samples should be weighted by distance. Otherwise, weighting based on time
Page 560

can be used. In Nemo Analyze, the statistics weighting method can be selected from software
options and from the report configuration of each Crystal Reports template separately.

specification. ETSI call events are based on the trigger points as defined in ETSI TS 102 250-2
specification.
Picture below illustrates the difference between Nemo and ETSI call events. The major difference
between the two call events is that Nemo events consider call as connected when traffic channel
over the air interface is allocated to the mobile, while ETSI events consider call as connected when
ALERTING is reached (or when call is answered if ALERTING is not used). This difference impacts
the call setup success rate and dropped call rate KPIs. If a call fails after traffic channel is assigned,
but before Alerting is reached, it is considered as dropped call in Nemo events. The same call is
considered as call attempt failure in ETSI events.
Nemo measurement tools are writing the Nemo call events to the logfile. However, Nemo events
are compatible with the ETSI events, and in post-processing it is possible to convert the Nemo
events to ETSI. As can be seen from the picture, ETSI uses a subset of trigger points compared to
Nemo, and there is one to one equivalent trigger point in Nemo events for every ETSI event. Nemo
Analyze and Nemo Outdoor have both the Nemo call events and the ETSI call events available for
the user.
ETSI way of defining the call setup phases is a widely used industry standard. Therefore we
recommend using the ETSI call events in call KPI reporting. Nemo call event logic inherits from the
1990s, early stages of networks and measurement tool development. The Nemo logfile format is
used in many 3rd party tools and therefore it is important to maintain the backward compatibility of
the logfile format and not to change the call event logic. Moreover, Nemo events can be converted
to ETSI events as discussed. Therefore the Nemo call event logic will be maintained in the raw
logfiles also in the future.

Ordinal, running number (1,2,3,…). When multiple FREEZE_FRAME functions of same type
are used in same parent query, the oridinal input controls the caching of the subquery
results. If same oridinal number is used for all FREEZE_FRAME scalars of the parent query,
the query is executed only once at the first time when the function is called, and the same
cache is used in other calls. This speeds up the query execution when the save value is
needed in multiple columns of the parent query. If different subqueries are used in the
multiple FREEZE_FRAME functions, the oridinal number must be different for each of the
functions.
o -1 (previous): In reference to the timestamp of the parent query row, returns the
previous value from the subquery
o 0 (current): In reference to the timestamp of the parent query row, returns the current
value from the subquery based on the validity time interval of the sub query. That is,
parent query timestamp is within the time range of the subquery row’s time interval.
o 1 (next): In reference to the timestamp of the parent query row, returns the next value
from the subquery
Sub query time column name (name of the time column in the scalar’s sub query),
