Section 10: Case Study and Discussion of Network Optimization

PART 1 Introduction

This practice on equipment includes the operations on traffic statistics console. Before this practice, the trainees should have the preparatory knowledge on: The hardware structure and the working principle of BSS system. Operation of all the BSC consoles. Knowledge of data management and dynamic data configuration. The hardware structure and the working principle of BSC multi-module system Basic understanding about how to use the Windows OS. GSM basic principle Basic understanding about how to use the Windows OS

The system principle of HUAWEI BSC system The load flow of data and program
BAM directory structure and necessary files for loading

PART 2
guaranteed.

Preparation

Before this practice on equipment, the following conditions on laboratory must be BSC hardware system is running normally BAM and local WS software had been installed on each workstation The whole OMC network is OK BTS hardware system is running normally
