Counter and KPI Session Objectives

By the end of the session the trainees will be able to

• List the relevant TNL measurements in access
optimisation
• Explain the meaning of the counters with reference to
training material
• Explain the KPIs related to the measurements without
reference to the material.
• Identify performance problems in given counter data

Performance Measurements for Transport

• NSN RU10 release offers various performance measurements

for Radio, Hardware and Transport

• Transport Measurements cover different stacks in Transport

OSI reference protocol stack

• Depending on KPIs selected for performance reporting,

specific measurements must be enabled in UTRAN
– this is static procedure which needs to be performed to get PM data
available in NSN NetAct Performance Analysis tools
– Note that all KPI IDs have been changed from RAN_KPI_XXXX to
RNC_XXXX
– The same IDs should be in KPI document and in JUMP
 Some duplicate KPIs with different ID exist at the moment, but they will be
fixed
