GENEX Probe Introduction
The GENEX Probe, hereinafter referred to as Probe, is one of Huawei GENEX series network planning and optimization solution. As the drive test software, the Probe collects and records data and display the data in real time. The data collected by the Probe can be imported to the GENEX Assistant, which is the post-processing software, for analysis. Currently, the Probe has the corresponding version that can work with LTE UE1.0.
The GENEX Probe provides the following functions:
Displaying air interface parameters and measurement counters according to the reporting period customized by users
Displaying measurement counters geographically, thus explicitly presenting network quality
Performing test tasks automatically by setting test plans
Recording test data and providing references for analyzing network performance and locating network problems
Replaying test data and reproducing test scenarios
Contents
Before installing the Probe, you need to install the GENEX Shared, which is the public component of Huawei GENEX series network planning and optimization solution.
After the installation, you need to apply for the license so that you can use the Probe.
Ensure that the Probe version is compatible with the UE version. The interface between the Probe and the UE is changed frequently; thus, incompatible versions may cause unpredictable problems. You are advised to use the Probe version release with the UE.
Perform tests on the basis of the projects created in the current version. Otherwise, unpredictable problems may occur.

From the Select Sheet drop-down list box, select the sheet where engineering parameters are recorded.
After the engineering parameters are imported, if the headers in the engineering parameters file are consistent with the headers in the Probe, the Probe automatically matches the headers. If they are inconsistent, you need to match the headers manually. To manually match the headers, perform the following operations:
Double-click the header that does not automatically match, for example, PCI in the figure.
In the displayed MAP DIALOG dialog box, select the header that matches PCI.

The following conditions must be met for displaying counters geographically:
GPS: The GPS must be connected. Otherwise, the Probe considers the longitude and latitude as 0 by default. In this case, all dots are recorded in the same place.
Map: If the map of a specific area is unavailable, the global map provided by the Probe needs to be used. When you enlarge the global map to view this specific area, the background of the map may be displayed as blank.
Engineering parameter: Engineering parameters are optional. If engineering parameters are unavailable, you can only view dot information. The dot information, however, cannot be associated with BTS information.

Each counter that can be displayed geographically can be displayed on a layer or be hidden. To view the information about only one counter, you can hide all the other counters.
If some layers are not required, you can remove them from the map.
Geographic Display — Layer Operation
To display a value next to a dot of a counter, refer to the following figure:

Geographic Display — Engineering Parameter Import I

From the Select Sheet drop-down list box, select the sheet where engineering parameters are recorded.
After the engineering parameters are imported, if the headers in the engineering parameters file are consistent with the headers in the Probe, the Probe automatically matches the headers. If they are inconsistent, you need to match the headers manually. To manually match the headers, perform the following operations:
Double-click the header that does not automatically match, for example, PCI in the figure.
In the displayed MAP DIALOG dialog box, select the header that matches PCI.

The following conditions must be met for displaying counters geographically:
GPS: The GPS must be connected. Otherwise, the Probe considers the longitude and latitude as 0 by default. In this case, all dots are recorded in the same place.
Map: If the map of a specific area is unavailable, the global map provided by the Probe needs to be used. When you enlarge the global map to view this specific area, the background of the map may be displayed as blank.
Engineering parameter: Engineering parameters are optional. If engineering parameters are unavailable, you can only view dot information. The dot information, however, cannot be associated with BTS information.
