7.1.1 Overview
Special test refers to the implementation of some behaviors not complied with protocols on
the UE based on some special purposes. For example, to test the performance of a UE when it
camps at the edge of a cell, you must prohibit it to handover or reselect to another cell even if
the UE camps at the cell edge. To achieve this goal, you can use the lock cell function in the
special test feature. Similarly, the special test feature provides the Lock EARFCN, Lock
PLMN, and Lock PUSCH Power functions. In addition, to camp in a barred cell, you can
use the CBA Invert function.

7.2 Scanner
7.2.1 Overview
Scanner indicates scanner functions provided by the UE, including cell scan and frequency
scan. Cell scan indicates that the UE scans cell information on a specified frequency band or
frequencies. The UE reports the scanned cell information such as RSRP and RSRQ to the
Probe for subscriber viewing and further analysis. Frequency scan indicates that the UE
reports the scanned frequency power to the Probe.
7.2.2 Test Scenarios

use the cell scan feature. Cell scan falls into cell
scan on specified frequencies, cell scan on a
specified frequency band, and fast cell scan.
Cell scan on specified frequencies supports setting
of up to three frequencies and cyclic scan. It
applies to that the UE moves around to view the
cell signal power on the current network when you
execute drive test.
Cell scan on a specified frequency band supports
setting of the start and end frequencies of a
frequency band to be scanned. The UE performs
traversal scan of frequencies in the preset range to
find all cells in the range. In this case, the UE
scans frequencies only once.
The cell power obtained through fast cell scan
indicates the power value directly measured by the
physical layer before filtering. The measurement
result is not directly displayed on the Probe
window. You can export the result in CSV format
and open it by Microsoft Office Excel to view the
data.

7.3 Auto Site Test

7.3.1 Overview
During large-scale LTE commercial applications, the installation of eNodeBs is outsourced to
hardware engineers to decrease the deployment cost. Currently, commercial LTE UEs are not
mature. Hardware engineers cannot perform site tests in time after installing hardware devices.
Therefore, the customer service engineers must reenter the sites for the acceptance of the
eNodeBs, which increases related costs and decreases the deployment efficiency. To resolve
this problem, the auto site test feature is developed on the UE.
The UE supports auto site test, that is, the UE automatically completes the ping and FTP tests
after hardware installation, to check whether an eNodeB is normal. You can perform an auto
site test by using the previously configured UE and observe the test result through status
indicators of the UE.

LTE UE

7.4 Remote Test

7.4.1 Overview
The labor cost is very high to manually control multiple UEs for test when they are distributed
in difference places. Controlling multiple UEs distributed in different places on the core
network in a unified manner can greatly save the labor cost and improve the test efficiency. To
meet this test requirement, the UE provides a remote test mode for controlling UEs remotely.
Remote test indicates that the OMT or Probe on the remote host connects to the UE by using
the air interface to support the operation and maintenance management. These functions are
the same as those of a local host. The current version supports the use of a remote OMT/Probe
to connect to the UE and control the UE in providing the ping service and FTP downloading
service. You can monitor and observe the UE by using the remote Probe.
7.4.2 Remote Test

Prerequisite
 A control PC is installed and it is connected to the gateway through a route.
 You are recommended to bind the IMSI with the UE IP on the HSS. In this case, the UE

7.5 Multi Traffics

7.5.1 Overview
Multi traffics indicates that the UE performs multiple services at the same time, including the
Ping service, UDP service, VoIP service, FTP service, and VOD service.
The demonstration of multi traffics requires the following software: Ser-U (installed on the
FTP server for FTP service demonstration), WS_FTP (for FTP service demonstration), Helix
media server (installed on the VOD server for VOD service demonstration), Microsoft
Portrait (for VoIP service demonstration), Windows Media Player, and NetMeter (for
throughput observation).
When the services performed by the UE require a special transfer service, you can set up a
dedicated bearer to guarantee the service quality. Setup of a dedicated bearer can be initiated
by the network only, but the UE can trigger the network to set up a dedicated bearer.
After receiving the uplink data, the UE needs to select a suitable bearer for transfer of data
services to guarantee the transfer quality. In the prerequisite that a dedicated bearer is set up,
the UE matches the dedicated bearer according to data services (that is, TFT match). The TFT
match items include the IP address, port number, and protocol number. When multiple
dedicated bearers can all be matched successfully, the UE selects the bearer that has the
highest priority to transfer data. If no dedicated bearer meets the data transfer requirement,
you can only select the default bearer for data transfer.
7.5.2 Dedicated Bearer-Related Configuration

Procedure
1. Set SDF QoS parameters. For details, see section Setting SDF QoS Parameters.
2. Set TFT parameters. For details, see section Setting TFT Parameters.

QCI is one of the most important QoS parameters for the EPS bearer. It is a quantity class, indicating the
QoS features that the EPS must provide for the SDF. Each SDF is associated with only one QCI. If
multiple SDFs corresponding to the same IP-CAN session have the same QCI and ARP, they can be
handled as an independent service set, which is called SDF set. Table 7-6 lists the standard QCI
attributes defined by the EPS system. All the QCI attributes can be preset by the carrier on the eNodeB
as required. These parameters determine the allocation of bearer resources.

7.6 ETWS
7.6.1 Overview
The Public Warning System (PWS) provides alarms for natural disasters or human error
accidents that may cause loss of lives or properties.
The Earthquake and Tsunami Warning System (ETWS) is a special PWS that provides alarms
for natural disasters such as earthquake and tsunami, and post-disaster relief and
reconstruction. It is an emergency communication system.
The ETWS has two basic requirements, namely, delay and security. The propagation velocity
of the earthquake or tsunami is very high, and the warning message must be sent to users at
the first time. Therefore, the delay is highly required. Such a message may cause a large-scale
panic. Therefore, the security is also highly required. The message source is generally
controlled by the government.

LTE UE
The ETWS is proposed by a Japanese telecom operator NTT DOCOMO at a meeting of the
Security Association. In addition, network support for the ETWS is written in Japanese law
and serves as a requirement for admission to the Japanese market. The ETWS is implemented
in 3GPP Rel8, and carries ETWS messages through SIB 10 and SIB 11 of system information.
The ETWS network architecture is shown in Figure 7-75.
Figure 7-75 ETWS network architecture
ETWS messages are sent to UEs through SIB 10 and SIB 11. Different from common system
information, ETWS messages fall into Primary Notification (PN) and Secondary Notification
(SN). The PN carries the most important and urgent information and must be sent to users at
the first time, for example, warning message on an earthquake or a tsunami sent through SIB
10. The SN carries the secondary urgent information, for example, help information and map
sent through SIB 11.
When a natural disaster occurs, the ETWS warning provider sends an alarm message to the
network side and the network side immediately broadcasts ETWS messages to UEs.
ETWS messages can be displayed in two modes, namely, instant display and interactive
display. The display mode is contained in ETWS messages. For instant display, the UE
displays the current ETWS message in a pop-up window. For interactive display, the UE
stores messages in the inbox and you can view messages manually in the inbox. ETWS
messages are transmitted in special encoding formats. Currently, the UE only supports UCS2
and GSM 7bit.
7.6.2 Observation Method

The ETWS is triggered by the network side and the UE responds passively. No special
settings are required.

LTE UE
ETWS Alarm in the Instant Display Mode

When an ETWS message in the instant display mode is sent, an Earthquake & Tsunami
SMS window is displayed on the OMT, as shown in Figure 7-76.
Figure 7-76 Instant ETWS message

When an unread ETWS message exists, an orange exclamatory mark appears on the inbox
icon , as shown in Figure 7-77. When no unread ETWS message exists, the inbox icon
is shown in Figure 7-78.

1000 messages are already stored, a prompt saying “ETWS message inbox is full” is
displayed in the log running window of the OMT. New messages cannot be received any
more. In this case, right-click and select Delete All Messages or Delete Selected Messages

9.19 Selecting an LTE UE Mode

Context
For different scenarios, the UE provides different modes, namely, Manual Connect, Auto
Connect, Remote Test, and Auto Site Test. Before using the UE, select a mode to obtain
corresponding services. By default, Manual Connect is selected.
Manual Connect: In this mode, you can only initiate the access procedure by OMT or Probe.
Auto Connect: The UE initiates the access procedure automatically after it is powered on.
The UE automatically restarts when network disconnection. This mode is applicable to
unattended scenarios such as high moving. In such a scenario, the UE must access to the
network immediately to transport services after power-on. The mode is equal to Auto Dial-up
mode.

LTE UE
Remote Test: This mode means that the OMT or Probe on the remote host can connect to the
UE by air interface to operate on UE. These functions are the same as local host. This mode is
applicable to scenarios where the remote control of the UE is required. The current version
supports the use of a remote OMT/Probe to connect to the UE and control the UE to do ping
test and FTP download test.
Auto Site Test: During large-scale LTE commercial applications, the installation of eNodeBs
is outsourced. After installation, the customer service engineers must reenter the sites for the
testing on the eNodeBs. This increases the costs. The UE supports auto site test, that is, the
UE automatically completes the ping and FTP tests after hardware installation, to check
whether an eNodeB status is normal. In this way, the customer service engineers do not need
to reenter the site.

10.1 MIMO
Introduction
The Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) is a technology to receive or send signals at the
receiving or transmitting terminal by using multiple antennas. By using the array gain,
diversity gain, spatial multiplexing gain, and interference suppression gain, the MIMO
improves system coverage and quality, and increases the peak rate. Multiple antennas enable
you to obtain the array gain by changing the direction of antennas. The advantages are as
follows:
 The eNodeBs with the application of the MIMO technology have a wider coverage.
 When the channel is in poor conditions, the diversity gain provides data backup by using
different antennas to send the same information, so that the data has stronger interference
resistance capability.
 When the channel is in good conditions, the spatial multiplexing gain multiplies the data
transmission rate by using different antennas to send different types of data, so that the
peak rate of the system is greatly improved.
Antennas of the UE are located on two panels, namely, front panel and back panel. The front
panel contains two RRU0 ports: a transmit/receive port (RXA1/TX) and a receive port
(RXB1). The back panel contains two RRU1 ports: a transmit/receive port (RXA2/TX) and a
receive port (RXB2). In the MIMO scenario, select a proper antenna configuration for the UE
based on network topology. Take the 2 x 2MIMO networks for example. If the UE antenna
connects to the RXA1/TX and RXB1, select the RRU0 for the 1T2R mode. If the UE antenna
connects to the RXA2/TX and RXB2, select the RRU1 for the 1T2R mode.
Prerequisite
 The OMT is connected to the UE properly.
Procedure
1. Click the Debug tab on the left pane of the main interface of the OMT.
