Examples of processes created

Validate cluster performance with ease Actix Analyzer Professional’s powerful, configurable analysis andreporting capabilities can be used to easily verify that clusterperformance meets agreed performance metrics. It provides cluster-wide analysis, demographic-based reporting, andconfigurable KPI grooming. In addition to radio performance, it offers fast and efficient data-service testing includingmeasurements such as delay, throughput, FTP and HTTP.

Key Benefits

Actix Analyzer Professional is a powerful, configurable dataanalysis solution designed to streamline network optimizationand performance. It enables:

• Automated diagnostics and solution finding

Complex radio engineering problems require specialist skillsand advanced software to solve them. With Actix AnalyzerProfessional’s unmatched analysis capability and powerfulvisualizations, expert engineers will create a way for all of anorganization’s radio engineers to get to the root cause of aproblem faster, and take corrective action with confidence.

• Standardized processes across teams and regions

With an expert’s processes embedded in Actix AnalyzerProfessional, all front-line radio engineers can test the networkin a consistent and repeatable manner, bringing best-practiceengineering within the test organization, reducing tool andprocess training, increasing productivity, and cutting the cost of testing.

• One network view: multi-technology and multi-vendor

Actix Analyzer Professional performs across multiple networktechnologies such as GSM, GPRS, EDGE, CDMA, UMTS,EVDO and HSDPA, service protocols, test devices andinfrastructure formats, giving a single, unified view of the network.

• Adaptability as challenges evolve

Actix Analyzer Professional can be configured in a range ofways that makes sense to evolving engineering organizationand resources. New analysis techniques and processes that have been identified and defined by an organization’stechnology specialists can be captured and shared with colleagues.

Priority location testing3

Receive crucial network performance insights – fastActix Analyzer Professional reveals how a network is reallyperforming. Ideal for benchmarking, it provides a convenient,impartial comparison of network quality, even among networks usingdifferent technologies such as GSM, GPRS, EDGE, CDMA, UMTS,EVDO and HSDPA. It enables visibility of network performance andtrends across regions, vendors and competitors and in addition offersthe ability to drill down from a network-wide view to root-cause detail in seconds. By streamlining workflow and making better use ofquality data the cost of drive-test collection is significantly reduced.

4Handset usage is growing worldwide: don’t get drownedin testing• For vendors rolling out handsets supporting cutting edge

Technology, Actix Analyzer Professional can eliminate the needfor time-consuming manual troubleshooting as it enables users to:• Automate the analysis for operator specific or standardized

test cases• Fine-tune test cases for newer handsets and chipsets• Rapidly modify test analyses for RF, Voice, Data and

IP applications

• For operators testing more and more handset models againstnetworks, Actix Analyzer Professional allows the cost oflaunching new devices to be reduced by streamlining the testingprocess and ensuring complex new capabilities are workingproperly. It enables users to:• Create quantitative, repeatable test analysis modeling

consumer perception• Accelerate problem investigation by correlating data from

underlying layers• Be vendor independent regardless of choice of network

or handset supplier

Establish focused processes when and where it matters mostWhen there is a need to maximize roaming revenue, ensure keyservices are coping in high traffic areas to guarantee performance,Actix Analyzer Professional can be used to create a set of highlyfocused, automated processes. Indoor marker interpolation, andhighly configurable voice and data KPIs enable users to createa standard automated test for specific situations – whether it’s for airport, train station, indoor, traffic hotspots or walk-tests.
