NQDI KPIs Manual
1 Introduction
This document contains a description of all the KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) measured and
reported with Diversity and QualiPoc data in NQDI. This list of KPIs represents a summary from
inputs from the Experts within ETSI, SwissQual KPI definitions and various customer requests.
THhe structure of the KPIs follow the principles of the document ITU P-800 where the
accessibility, retainability and integrity are the key aspects of the assessment of quality in
telecommunications.
The concept of accessibility has been enlarged to accommodate customer requests for KPIs
considering the completion of a service. It spans from the request of a service to its successful
completion. Since the access to the service is essential to its completion these KPIs are regarded
as belonging to the accessibility group.
The described KPIs are to be found on the KPI sheet of the NQDI Analysis tab and as a report
item in the Report Generator. The usage of the Report Generator is described in detail in the
NQDI manual.
The calculation of the KPIs is automatically when the trigger points are available. Depending on
the data collection application type and mode used (Diversity, QualiPoc) maybe only a limited
choice of KPIs is available.

Voice
The performance KPIs for circuit switched (voice) calls are obtained with the help of a set of
trigger points that can be found in the layer 3 communication between the MS and the network or
as Call markers in the case of a call from the land unit.
GSM/UMTS
The call setup success rate and time is calculated for UMTS (GSM) by using the
RRCConectionRequest (Channel Request in GSM) and the alerting message for the MOCs. The
call retained rate and duration is calculated using the alerting and the disconnect message.
Figure 2-1 Trace and Graph of a CS call on UMTS

The call completion rate is thereby calculated as retained calls divided by the sum of failed and
successful setups.
Figure 2-2 Trace and Graph of a CS call on GSM

On the layer 3 plane the 3G and 2G calls are comparable, but the request for a signalization
resource is different. The former starts with a RRCConnectionRequest, the latter with Channel
Request.
In principle a call starts with the dial command (see overview table) or the user pushing the dial
button. In reality this dial command is executed in different ways on different phones. There are
phones although fully integrated into the measurement system, simulating the manual dialling. As
a consequence the times between dial command and first request differ significantly on phones
20 | Chapter 2 Services
NQDI KPIs Manual
from different vendors. To keep the comparability between different models the start trigger point
is the first request for a signalisation channel.
Figure 2-3 Graph of a land originated CS call

For calls originated by the land unit, the trigger point of the call start is represented by the dial
command sent to the PSTN or ISDN device.
CDMA
In CDMA there is no layer 3 signalisation that the call is connected with the called party therefore
there is no call setup KPI. However there is one for the access. But since the sequence of layer 3
messages in CDMA voice service differs from UMTS/GSM it has separate KPIs with respective it
trigger points.
Data
The data tests make use of three different protocols: TCP, UDP and WAP. Predominant is the
TCP or TCP/IP protocol that supports various known applications. UDP is tested on the protocol
level and with WAP the application and the protocol is identical.
TCP/IP
The TCP/IP connection consists in general of three different phases:
Establishment, transfer and disconnect. In the Data tests individual applications are investigated
(such as FTP up- and download, Email sent and receive and HTTP). While FTP has an
establishment as well as a disconnect phase, the others maybe doesnt have either.
The connection establishment on the TCP level is shown in Figure 2-4 where the three phases
are clearly distinguishable. Every TCP connection has an establishment phase. However a HTTP
server can end a connection without the exchange of packets with the FIN flag set.
Chapter 2 Services | 21
NQDI KPIs Manual
Figure 2-4 The phases of a TCP connection

For performing a HTTP download, the GET command is send right away triggering the
establishment of a TCP connection. There is no further exchange of commands on the HTTP
protocol level.
The GET command is set in brackets because in the trace, it does not occur at that position. It
only shows itself after the connection is established. The starting point of the access duration is
the time the [SYN] is sent, triggered by entering the GET command. Therefore the application
download duration starts at that time too.
As the figures suggest, there are two different download and upload times indicated. The TCP
down- and upload time is the time, the network needs to actually transfer the desired bytes, which
reflects the efficiency of the connection. The application transfer duration is actually the time,
which the user is experiencing. Its the time the application needs to execute the desired function.
The size of the file on the hard disk, (HD) divided by the time, indicated in the figure as TCP
download time, is the throughput. The calculation for the uplink is analog to the downlink with the
difference that an additional time is added, which reflects the duration the last FTP Data packet
needs, to arrive at the server.
Email
The process of the test is traced on the protocol level, which is presented in the protocol info tab
in NQDI. This trace represents the basis of the evaluation of the test. The steps of the Email send
test are shown below.
Figure 2-5 Email send

The test of the application is divided into service access, service application and service
throughput. The service access is the time between entering the first command and the arrival of
the first data packet.
NQDI KPIs Manual
The establishment of the TCP connection is triggered by the invoke of the protocol. E.g. > telnet
110
n the contrary because SMTP is running on the server, the start of the application is the actual
upload command to the server.
To obtain the correct TCP download duration, it is necessary to add a half-roundtrip time. This is
due to the consideration, that the last packet needs a finite time to arrive at its destination. This
addition may not match the exact delay of the packet, but it renders the result more accurate as if
there were no additional time considered.
For the Email Receive this additional time is half the time between the request and the first
packet.
Figure 2-6 Email receive procedure
FTP
During the FTP tests a secondary data connection is established. (In the figure below, the trace of
this secondary connection is shown with smaller arrows)
The items in brackets like (ftp) reflect commands that may not occur in the trace but have to be
executed to trigger the establishment of the TCP connection. In the FTP uplink test the last packet
containing data has the FIN flag set. This indicates that the client closes the connection.
The trigger points to calculate the TCP throughput are indicated in the following picture. It is
calculated from the first to the last FTP Data packet and in addition the time, which the first packet
needs to arrive at the client.
NQDI KPIs Manual
Figure 2-7 FTP downlink

The size of the file on the hard disk, (HD) divided by the time, indicated in the figure as TCP
download time, is the throughput. The calculation for the uplink is analog to the downlink with the
difference that an additional time is added, which reflects the duration the last FTP Data packet
needs, to arrive at the server.
Figure 2-8 FTP uplink
HTTP
According to the RFC 2126 a HTTP server does not need to close the TCP connection with the
setting the FIN flag. The browser can identify the end of the HTTP packet sending within the
packet itself.
NQDI KPIs Manual
Ping
The ping does not use the TCP protocol but is a command of the ICMP protocol. The round trip
time of a ping represents the time elapsed between the sending of an ICMP echo request and the
answer of the destination. In the protocol trace, where these events are taken from, it is calculated
by the difference between a request and the subsequent reply.
Figure 2-9 Ping test

The success rate is the number of request divided by the number of received replies.
UDPDL
The UDPDL test is a pure protocol test. There is no known application used in this test. The
access duration is the time between sending the SQUDPDL command to the server and the
arrival of the first packet.
NQDI KPIs Manual
Figure 2-10 UDPDL process

The throughput for this test is calculated by dividing the transferred data in bytes (minus the size
of the first packet) and the time elapsed between the arrival of the first and the arrival of the last
packet.
WAP
Contrary to the applications described above the WAP (wireless application protocol) test has no
separate transport protocol.
Figure 2-11 WAP test

The application starts with the connect command. The application is successful accessed when
the first packet that contains data has arrived. This first packet can either be a result, indicating
that there are others to come, or a reply, indicating that all requested information is transferred.
The last data packet is always a reply.
Messages
MMS
The multi media messaging service (MMS) is an application of WAP and SMS. The WAP
capabilities are used to transfer the data of the message while the SMS serves as the notification.
NQDI KPIs Manual
Although is consists of known functionalities, this service is highly specific for mobile equipment
and is therefore tested individually.
Figure 2-12 MMS trace

The measured parameters are those, which are specified by ETSI in the document TS 102 250-2.
SMS
Like MMS, a SMS is separated in a sending and retrieving part. For the reception it is less evident
since we cannot speak of a process here. With the indication of a SMS the actual text is retrieved.
There is no download- time available.
Figure 2-13 SMS trace
Mobile TV
DVB-H
Digital Video Broadcast (DVB) is a transmission system to delivier digital TV. The H in the name
is standing for the handheld variant, which implements a lot of special techniques particularly
addressing the limitations of mobile. Although DVB-H uses IP as a tranport layer there is no
direct access to with the consequence that the application layer information items are used as
trigger events for DVB-H KPIs
NQDI KPIs Manual
3 Indicators on Layer 3
The desired times and the success rates calculating the layer 3 KPIs are based on the messages
that are exchanged between the MS and the network. The phone gives a time wise and exact
trace of these messages as they are sent and received by the mobile station. The messages can
be seen in detail in the collection of data as well as in their post processing.
Data (PS)
The KPIs for data calls are obtained by using the resource request (RRCConnectionRequest for
UMTS and Channel Request for GSM), the PDP context activation accept message and the PDP
deactivation accept message. PDP context setup time is the difference between the
RRCConnectionRequest and the PDP context activation accept message, while the PDP context
holding time is the difference between the occurrence of the PDP context activation accept
message and the PDP context deactivation accept message.
Figure 3-1 Trace and Graph of a data call on UMTS

The information about the activation and deactivation times of the PDP context is extracted from
the SM messages, which are embedded in the RRC messages of UMTS.

4 Indicators on Layer 1
The indicators from layer 1 are used for items of the report generator they are most of the times
not explicit KPIs with their own ID but measurements.
Scanner Based Measurements

The desired values for the CPICHs, pilot pollution and the SC coverage are calculated by means
of the data available from the scanner. The phones do not provide sufficient data since they only
give the Ec/Io of the cells that are monitored.
Figure 4-1 Data available from the scanner
Scrambling Code Coverage

The coverage of the scrambling code shows the percentage of the time a cell with that scrambling
code was the strongest cell measured by the scanner.
Pilot Pollution
If at a given time more than three CPICHs are stronger than the best CPICH minus a 15 dB
threshold the situation is considered pilot pollution. The report item shows the percentage of time
there was pilot pollution.
Radio based Measurements

Radio Link
ualcomm phones provide information about the active set about two times a second. In this
information the size of the active set is provided indicating the handover state. For the calculation
of the distribution all samples that of a call including the set up will be considered.

NQDI KPIs Manual
The information about the changes in the active set is be found the RRC messages where the
ActiveSetUpdate message indicates the type radio link change ordered by the network. In case a
addition information list and a removal information list is present in the message the order is a
radio link replacement if only the former is present its a radio link addition if only the latter the
network orders a radio link removal
Figure 4-2 Addition and removals of radio links

All successful update orders are considered in the calculation.
Power Control
The phone provides information about the UE Tx Power several times a second and about the
block error rate (BLER)in lower frequency. The distribution of the obtained values is calculated
using all measured samples.

Status
The result of the KPI measurements can to be found in the ErrorCode field of the record. The
status is OK or successful whenever the service or a resource is obtained as expected.
Otherwise, if that is not the case e.g. a PDP context request rejected then the status field will
show 108001. Also, if there is e.g. a ActiveSetUpdateFailure sent then the status field is set to
108002. Some end trigger points are expected to come within a limited time (this is a time based
trigger). If that time is exceeded and no end trigger point is detected then the status field is set to
108003. In the reports, the last three cases described above are all marked as Failed since the
process was not successfully concluded.
If a KPI measurement is based on session or test and one of the trigger point is missing then the
status field is set to 108004 or 108005 depending on what is missing the Status field in the report
will show Incomplete.
(With the Qualcomm trace phone the rate of missing layer 3 messages is particularly high at this
time so that whenever a message is missing for a complete procedure the status is set to 108100,
108101, 108102 or 108103 to mark that as a special event. The different types are listed in the
table below).

KPI Calculation
The presentation as described in this appendixr is the fashion the KPIs are calculated and
presented in the reports generated with the Report Generator. For details see NQDI Manual
Success Rate
The success rate is in general the number of successful attempts divided by the total number of
attempts expressed in percent:
SuccessRate = # successful attempts/ total # of attempts * 100%
Table 4-3 Table for rates and averages
This rule is applied throughout with the exception of RRC Connection Request where sometimes
a second request occurs although the first is successful. In such a case the success rate
calculated as if there is only one attempt.
Rejection Rate
The rejection rate is only required for the PDP context activation where it is defined as the number
of rejected attempts divided by the total number of attempts expressed in percent.
RejectionRate = # rejected attempts/ total # of attempts * 100%
Time
The time that is given for the individual processes is the time elapsed between two trigger points
given in Section 2 and 3. With the exception of retainability durations with time in seconds (s) the
time is given in milliseconds (ms).
PDF
The probability density diagram is a histogram where the frequency of occurrence of the values in
the given intervals is shown.
108 | Appendix B
NQDI KPIs Manual
Figure 4-21 Probability Density Function (PDF)

The desired values that are to be shown in such a fashion are given in the Section 2. While the
range for time can vary between 2000ms and 20 minutes it is divided up into fifty intervals. For the
Ec/Io (0-32 dB) and RSCP (-30 - -110 dBm) as well as for UE Tx Power (-30 - -110 dBm) and
BLER (0 100 %) the range is different and the number of intervals is chosen appropriately.
CDF
The cumulative density function is a histogram where the percentages of the measured values
that are equal or bigger than the respective value point on the x axis is shown.
Figure 4-22 Cumulative Density Function (CDF)

The desired values that are to be shown in such a fashion are given in the Section 2. While the
range for time can vary between 2000ms and 20 minutes it is divided up into fifty intervals. For the
Ec/Io (0-32 dB) and RSCP (-30 - -120 dBm) as well as for UE Tx Power (-30 - -110 dBm) and
BLER (0 100 %) the range is different and the number of intervals is chosen appropriately.
95% Cut-Off point

Ninety five percent of the measured values are smaller or equal than the value denoted by the
95% cut-off point. This value is calculated from the gradient of the CDF histogram.
