Fine Tune your Network RF Configuration with Actix Veritune for GSM, UMTS, CDMA and EVDO Actix Veritune lowers the cost of RF optimization by using measured data for informed decision making on antenna changes and allows real-world scenarios to be reproduced in the office, significantly reducing the number of RF optimization cycles. It enables wireless operators to minimize the number of drive tests required to optimize a network to meet required key performance indicator (KPI) targets. And by allowing engineers to identify solutions more efficiently, Veritune makes it possible to accelerate network roll-out and reduce the cost of ongoing optimization. In addition, Actix Veritune analyzes how antenna changes would affect the network performance by creating ‘synthetic’ drive tests incorporating change predictions into unchanged measured data. If performance does not meet required KPI targets, an engineer can make further changes in the optimization step and again test the performance using Veritune. This takes optimization iterations out of the field and onto the users desktop. Veritune in action: GSM and UMTS antenna changes for RF optimization.

Fine Tune your Network RF Configuration with Actix Veritune for GSM, UMTS, CDMAand EVDO
Actix Veritune lowers the cost of RFoptimization by using measured data forinformed decision making on antennachanges and allows real-world scenarios to be reproduced in the office, significantly reducing the number of RF optimization cycles.
It enables wireless operators to minimizethe number of drive tests required tooptimize a network to meet required keyperformance indicator (KPI) targets. Andby allowing engineers to identify solutionsmore efficiently, Veritune makes it possibleto accelerate network roll-out and reducethe cost of ongoing optimization.
In addition, Actix Veritune analyzes howantenna changes would affect the networkperformance by creating ‘synthetic’ drivetests incorporating change predictions intounchanged measured data. If performancedoes not meet required KPI targets, anengineer can make further changes in theoptimization step and again test theperformance using Veritune. This takesoptimization iterations out of the field andonto the users desktop.
Veritune in action: GSM and UMTS antenna changes for RF optimization.
Just 4 easy steps to fast, in-office optimization:
• Load and sanity check collected data efficiently
• Configure settings and thresholds to match your network and processes
• Check that current network configuration and terrain data covers the drive test area
• Select desired region or cluster to drill down
• Check relevance of measured data to identify sectors suitable for optimization
• Identify poorly performing areas
• View radio performance statistics for entire drive and for individual sectors
• Pinpoint coverage issues and associated sectors on map thanks to icons
• Pick a sector on map or in table to see antenna characteristics
• List sectors polluted by or polluting the highlighted sector
• Review improvement scenarios and their impact
• Select a sector characteristic (antenna type, azimuth, downtilt)
• Review scenarios showing impact of different settings on overall drive statistics
• Exclude a sector when interference exceeds capacity or coverage value
• Simulate effect of single or multiple site outage for disaster recovery scenarios
• Simulate visually the effect of antenna changes
• Make a change then see before/after map and before/after statistics
• Make multiple changes and see cumulative effects instantly
• Consider trade-offs and incorporate local knowledge for informed decision-making
• Export optimal changes showing initial and final configurations

Resolve complex RF issues fast
Key Benefits
Actix Veritune drives optimization cost to its minimum:
• Saves time and resources by decreasing the need for real-life antenna changes
• Reduces the number of drive tests required to achieve operational targets
• Increases the certainty that proposed changes improve performance
• Reduces the amount of time spent on analysis
• Allows operators to achieve a faster ROI
Actix Veritune can be used effectively by every engineer in the organization, rather than a select few experts.
Key features include:
• Suggests changes only when enough measurements are available to support decision
• ‘Desktop drive testing’ using measured data for accurate predicted log-files
• Graphical, easy-to-use, interactive interface with before/after statistics
• Displays impact of single or multiple antenna changes
• Synchronized map and data-driven optimization
• Complements your existing processes, for instance:
• run an Actix configured Cluster Acceptance process against your Actix Veritunesynthetic log file
• visualise how antenna changes will affect your KPIs
