4 New Features

4.1 New Features in TEMS Pocket 13.3

1.1.1 Multi-device TEMS Pocket: Controller/Agents

With TEMS Pocket 13.3 we launch a multi-device measurement setup where one controller device (preferably a tablet) controls the actions of a set of agent devices. The communication between controller and agents takes place over Bluetooth.

The point of this setup is to let you operate a whole battery of TEMS Pocket devices through a single interface. On the controller device you can start and stop scripts on the agents, and monitor the progress and status of each agent. You can position measurement data for all agents at once by pinpointing in the controller Indoor Map view.

1.1.2 Video Streaming Testing

You can now test download and replay of YouTube video clips in TEMS Pocket. A newly created action takes care of this task, presenting the footage in a special free-floating view nailed to the foreground.

A host of new value elements report on the performance of the RTP streaming, and a freshly designed progress view keeps you updated on the unfolding of the YouTube session.

1.1.3 LTE RACH Data View

A new data view displays parameters and data related to RACH signaling and paging in LTE. It is similar to existing RACH views for WCDMA and GSM and indicates, among other things:

Reason for RACH signaling, type of RACH procedure Preamble settings such as initial Tx Power, power ramping step size, and maximum

number of preambles; during preamble transmission, Tx Power for current preamble

Outcome of RACH procedure.

1.1.4 Custom Storage Location

If a device has multiple storage media available, for example, if it has an external memory card inserted in addition to its built-in memory, you can now select where to store TEMS Pocket logfiles.

1.1.5 Protective housing for TEMS Pocket Remote via the new RMU

TEMS Pocket Remote Samsung S4 GT-I9505 mounted in a ruggized Smartphone solution, for unattended deployments. External antennas for UMTS, LTE radio and GPS is available in a RTU like casing.

NT13-27269, 1.0, 12/17/2013 3

1.1.6 New firmware for Samsung S4 GT-i9505, adding support for the DRT external scanner

A new Samsung base firmware which adds support for DRT scanner is now available. This is optional and only needed for users that want to connect to the DRT scanner.

All new Samsung S4 GT-I9505 devices delivered from Ascom now comes with the new firmware. Phones needs to be sent in via RMA for upgrades to get the new firmware

1.1.7 External USB power-pack available as optional accessory

Heavy use of data services and difficult radio conditions can quickly drain a device battery. By adding a power pack to the TEMS Pocket solution the operation time can be extend.Use multiple packs to hot-swap power for long sessions.

4.2 New Features in TEMS Pocket 13.2

4.2.1 LTE Scanning with DRT4311B Scanner TEMS Pocket 13.2 introduces a unique in-building solution for high performance, multi-technology scanning using an external scanner from DRT (model name: DRT4311B). This solution offers a significant reduction in weight and power consumption compared to traditional scanners, and it removes the need for a cumbersome laptop-based configuration. Simply hook up the lean and lightweight DRT scanner via USB to your TEMS Pocket smartphone or tablet for a discreet and super-portable scanning setup. As a first step, LTE Reference Signal scanning is offered in TEMS Pocket 13.2, with more technologies to be added in coming releases. Scans can be either manual or scripted; in either case, as it is handled by a separate device, the scanning is completely independent of other TEMS Pocket activities and can run in parallel with any of these.

4.2.2 New Device: LG Lucid 2 (VS870) This in an LTE/CDMA smartphone. It is the first TEMS Pocket device to support voice calls over LTE (VoLTE). Frequency bands:

LTE 700 (Band 13) CDMA 800 (BC 0), 1900 (BC 14)

Throughput categories: LTE Category 3 (100/50 Mbit/s) EV-DO Rev. A (3.1 Mbit/s)

Google Android 4.1.2 Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n Integrated GPS with A-GPS support Chipset: Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Plus MSM8960 CPU: Dual-core 1.2 GHz

Note: This device is operator-locked to Verizon.

4 NT13-27269, 1.0,12/17/2013

4.2.3 VoLTE Support The LG Lucid 2 smartphone is the first TEMS Pocket device capable of VoLTE voice call testing. Scripting of VoLTE calls is handled by the Voice action, where a new Call type setting determines whether to use a circuit switched or packet-switched bearer. Audio quality measurement with the POLQA algorithm can be done during VoLTE calls.

4.2.4 IP Capture from Device Modem An additional option has been introduced for IP sniffing. IP logs can now be extracted not only from the Android IP stack but also from the device modem (that is, when the data transfer is done over a mobile network as opposed to Wi-Fi). For VoLTE, it is essential to log IP data from the device modem to furnish input to KPI calculation in post-processing tools such as TEMS Discovery.

4.2.5 Half-duplex Mobile-to-mobile POLQA In mobile-to-mobile calls between two TEMS Pocket devices, POLQA voice quality scores can now be computed at both ends during the same call. Each speech sentence is transmitted in both directions, enabling each device to calculate a POLQA score for it. POLQA can be computed both for CS voice (except on CDMA) and for VoLTE.

4.2.6 Locking to Multiple RATs and Bands The RAT lock control function has been refined to permit locking of the TEMS Pocket device to a subset of multiple radio access technologies, not just to a single technology. For example, the device can be allowed to camp on GSM and WCDMA while being prevented from accessing LTE. What RAT combinations are possible is dictated by the interplay between technologies as defined in the standards; GSM and LTE, for instance, is not a valid subset. For band lock, the option of locking on more than one band already existed for LTE and WCDMA but has now been introduced for GSM as well.

4.2.7 Cell File Data Used as Guidance with Locking Functions

More ample use is made of cell file data in this version of TEMS Pocket: When selecting a cell to lock on, you can search the cell file for parameter values as well as arbitrary text in cell names. The latter is especially helpful when you need to identify a cell based on its location. A cell turned up by the search can be picked as a lock target by a single-tap operation.

In the RAT lock dialog it is shown for each RAT how many bands and cells the device supports for that technology. Similarly, for the band lock function, a cell count is given for each supported band.

4.2.8 Data Mode Indication The current RAT string in the data view header has been supplemented with an indication of data mode, meaning the type of bearer currently being used for data transfer. This can be either a mobile network bearer or Wi-Fi.

NT13-27269, 1.0, 12/17/2013 5

The TEMS Pocket data mode indication is much more fine-grained than the one given on the Android status bar: to give just one example, within WCDMA it distinguishes all of the following: 3G (non-HS), HSPA, HSPA DC (dual carrier), HSPA+, HSPA+ MIMO, HSPA+ DC, and HSPA+ DC MIMO.

4.2.9 WCDMA Fast Dormancy Control Fast dormancy is a 3GPP mechanism designed to save smartphone battery as well as network resources by minimizing the time the device spends in power-consuming states. The mobile device initiates the procedure by sending a message to the network where it requests to end the current data session.

A new control function in TEMS Pocket lets you decide whether to allow or inhibit fast dormancy in a WCDMA network. If you inhibit the mechanism, the devices session end requests will be suppressed, so that the network will not receive them.

4.2.10 HTTP Post

HTTP Post offers an alternative route to testing uplink performance, with a Web server at the other end instead of an FTP server. The HTTP Post operation is handled by the same script action type as HTTP Get.

4.3 New Features in TEMS Pocket 13.1

6 NT13-27269, 1.0,12/17/2013

4.3.2 TEMS Pocket Remote

TEMS Pocket 13.1 sees the introduction of the first TEMS Pocket Remote package on the Android platform. A TEMS Pocket running in Remote mode can be used as an unattended probe tasked with (for example) monitoring or benchmarking. The device is then controlled remotely by a Fleet Manager and does not expose the regular TEMS Pocket user interface.

The behavior of a TEMS Pocket Remote device as an autonomous probe can be flexibly configured on-screen, for example with regard to registration procedures and measurement data upload.

4.3.3 User-customizable Data Views

As a complement to the predefined data views, TEMS Pocket 13.1 comes equipped with a set of blank views whose contents you customize yourself in whatever way you like. The views are overlaid with a grid, which you populate piece by piece with a mosaic of the value elements you want to monitor.

You build these custom views from the same types of graphical elements that make up the predefined views:

Line charts with or without labeling of axes. Value bars whose length and color represent the current value of a parameter or

measured quantity. The value and unit are also printed as text on top of the bar.

Value labels presenting value elements as text only. Static text labels describing the data seen in the view.

4.3.4 Max/Min Duration Timers in Script Actions

Script actions are now equipped with maximum/minimum timers which can optionally be used to control the action duration. If the action duration reaches the stipulated maximum, the action is immediately ended. On the other hand, if the action completes in less than the minimum execution time, TEMS Pocket will wait until the minimum timer expires and only then continue.

4.3.5 User-friendly Script and Map Set File Names

The file naming of scripts and map sets created in TEMS Pocket has been changed to a more human-readable format to make files easier to find.

4.3.6 Sony Xperia LT25i with External Antennas

An external antenna kit is now offered with TEMS Pocket on the Sony Xperia LT25i phone. The device is then permanently fitted with SMA female connectors on the back of the phone.

With an external antenna you can easily verify previously deployed antenna solutions, or find faulty cables, using only a mobile device. The antenna kit also includes a mini-antenna for normal handheld use; the phones internal antenna, on the other hand, is permanently disabled in this configuration.

The external antenna solution is available with TEMS Pocket Professional and TEMS Pocket Standard.

Google Android 4.0 Wi-Fi: 802.11 a/b/g/n Integrated GPS with A-GPS support Chipset: Qualcomm MSM8960 CPU: Dual-core 1.5 GHz

4.4.7 New GPS: Garmin GLO Garmin GLOTM is a combined GPS and GLONASS receiver supporting wireless Bluetooth connectivity. The GLONASS and GPS combination can receive positioning information from up to 24 more satellites than GPS-only receivers.

GLO supports a positioning update frequency of 10Hz (10 updates per second). Many receivers on the market today only support 1 update per second, giving GLO higher location resolution which is suitable when traveling at vehicular speeds.

GLO supports up to 12 hours battery life and is easy to charge with the included USB cable.

4.4.8 New Device Control: LTE EARFCN Lock In this release LTE EARFCN lock, also sometimes referred to as LTE carrier lock, is added to Xperia LT25i and Xperia LT30a, further expanding the range of market-unique capabilities which continues to save TEMS users countless hours in their daily work.

As operators begin to deploy additional carriers to their LTE networks in order to grow capacity the LTE EARFCN lock capability can enable accurate, non-intrusive and efficient deployment compared to alternative solutions.

This capability is just like previously introduced control capabilities possible to control in real-time when locking to individual EARFCN/carriers. One initial reboot of the device is

NT13-27269, 1.0, 12/17/2013 11

required to configure the device to a state where it prevents or allows handovers, but unlike similar solutions which require a reboot for each change in EARFCN its use does not requiring a reboot of the device. This allows the user to combine locking capabilities with other automated services tests, greatly increasing operation efficiency.

Note: The version offered in this release works differently compared to WCDMA and GSM carrier lock features, so a comparison between the different types of carrier lock use cases can be found in the TEMS Pocket Commercial Presentation and Technical Product Description.

4.4.9 New Device Control: WCDMA Cell Preferred (UARFCN and SC) As similarly named but in many aspects very different device control capabilities are becoming more common in network testing solutions it is important to distinguish between solutions claiming locking capabilities.

The TEMS portfolio has for more than a decade been able to provide a unique type of locking functionality, designed and developed by Ascom specifically with network testing in mind. This is something unique to the industry.

In this release WCDMA Cell Preferred (UARFCN and SC) control capabilities are added to Xperia LT25i and Xperia LT30a, further increasing the operational efficiency for TEMS users. This capability is similarly to previous capabilities possible to control in real-time and unlike some other solutions its use does not requiring a reboot of the device.

Note: The level of control offered in this release works differently compared to the Xperia arc S LT18i/a, so a comparison between the different types of carrier lock use cases can be found in the TEMS Pocket Commercial Presentation and Technical Product Description. The name change to WCDMA Cell Preferred reflects the difference in capabilities compared to previous TEMS Sony devices.

4.4.10 New Device Control: Access Class control Xperia LT25i and LT30a handsets are now capable of controlling AC (Access Class). This feature allows the device to simulate an AC other than the AC originally given to the USIM. It can be used to enable evaluation of the NW with various ACs other than the AC set to USIM. Access Class between 0-9 and 10-15 can be chosen with 10-15 indicating for example NW access emergency calls, public or emergency services. The alternative to testing these AC cases would requires multiple different SIM-cards, manual configuration of the handset and takes significantly longer to setup and test reliably.

4.4.11 New Device Control: Ignore Cell Barred TEMS Pocket now adds another popular control capability to Xperia LT30a and LT25i devices; Cell Barred Control. This control capability is useful for testing sites commissioned in commercial live networks and helps reduce impact for commercial users to a minimum.

By barring access the operator can prevent commercial users from using a specific cell. Normal, commercial handsets will not be able to camp on a barred cell site, but by using Cell Barred Control the user can let TEMS Pocket ignore the access restriction and still use the site to conduct tests uninterrupted and in an more controlled

12 NT13-27269, 1.0,12/17/2013

environment. This increases reliability of tests and promotes user efficiency as the alternatives can be costly and error prone.

TEMS Pocket offers three different options to Cell Barred Control:

Normal - Only non-barred cells can be used by the phone. This is how commercial devices normally behave.

All All cells can be used by the phone Only Barred Only barred cells can be used by the phone According to 3GPP TS 25.304, a "Barred Cell" is "a cell a commercial UE is not allowed to camp on." A UE is not allowed to camp on a barred cell, not even for emergency calls. If a cell on which a commercial UE is currently camped becomes barred, a cell reselection is triggered.

This parameter controls whether the test set is a barred cell. It sets the 3GPP TS 25.331 s10.3.2.1 "Cell Barred" information element.

4.4.12 Mobile-to-Mobile POLQA This release adds convenient and cost efficient Mobile-2-Mobile POLQA capabilities to Xperia LT25i devices.

A mobile-2-mobile solution has a number of benefits compared to mobile-2-fixed or MOS solutions using external hardware:

No external hardware needed, just two devices with voice subscription No need for a fixed call generator or landline resulting in much easier setup at

reduced cost

The entire mobile solution can travel with the user, measuring according to local conditions

Using a non-PSTN mobile call generator enables Super-Wideband measurements as landline calls are down-converted to narrowband speech

Combined with the Ascom-unique capability of vocoder control, introduced in selected handsets in previous releases, the M2M POLQA solutions becomes even more versatile, enabling the user to efficiently test AQM impact for specific voice codecs.

M2M POLQA will be added to further devices during the year and based on customer requests.

Note: A POLQA License is not needed for the receiving side calculating the MOS score if the calls are one-directional. Only when both devices will be calling each other, alternating MOS measurements, is there a need for two licenses.

4.4.13 Super-Wideband POLQA measurements TEMS Pocket users using POLQA can now calculate a MOS score for Wideband and Super-Wideband codecs, e.g. AMR-WB. A 48 KHz sample rate is applied for all codecs above 8 KHz.

4.4.14 Script triggers Script execution can now be triggered by user defined custom events. For each script the user can define a series of logical statements which when evaluated to true will

NT13-27269, 1.0, 12/17/2013 13

begin or end execution of the script. As an example the script can be triggered to start on a specific day of the week, within a certain hours of the day or for specific RF conditions.

The triggers can be created using the new custom events editor which supports users to easily write powerful, nested logical statements.

This enables TEMS Pocket to automate more testing for the user, working in a more unattended mode and even to reduce the amount of redundant data collected.

4.4.15 New time based triggers for Custom events Custom events can now be created with time of day-based triggers. TEMS Pocket can now generate events for:

Year Month Day of Month Hour Minute

Combining these above events with the automatic script triggers and other custom events enables TEMS Pocket to work in a type of unattended mode, e.g. executing scripts at specific time intervals, radio conditions and/or network events without user interaction.

4.4.16 Nested custom events The custom event editor introduced in an earlier release of TEMS Pocket has now been enhanced to support nested arrangements of logical statements. The new event user interface has been designed to help the user easily create complex evaluations.

Figure 1 Nested custom events

14 NT13-27269, 1.0,12/17/2013

4.4.17 Filemarks

Filemarks can be inserted in a logfile that is being recorded in order to tag segments of particular interest in the file, or just to note down some pertinent fact related to the recording. The filemarks are also present during post processing in other TEMS products.

4.4.18 Map Legend TEMS Pocket now displays a color legend in both indoor and outdoor maps, indicating what measurement is plotted, its numerical value and color range. This greatly enhances convenience and usability.

Figure 2 Map Legend

4.4.19 TEMS Pocket auto-start TEMS Pocket can now be configured to start automatically when the device is powered on. Users can get started testing immediately by not having to start the application manually, saving time in the process.

This feature becomes especially powerful when used with the automatic script triggers, turning the device into a unit which can perform autonomous testing whenever turned on. Users do not have to bother with selecting and starting scripts, but can focus on monitoring progress or simply carrying the device with them without further interaction.

4.4.20 Embedded Quick Guide New user can now access a Quick Guide directly from the Help menu in TEMS Pocket. This Quick Guide helps orient the user through often used scenarios such as how to record logfiles, work in in-building environments and other tips and tricks. This enables new users getting started quickly and with minimal training.

The TEMS Pocket Quick Guide is available in the same mobile-friendly format as the embedded User Manual.

4.4.21 Revamped menu system This release introduces a new menu system designed to help TEMS Pocket users be more efficient, reaching information faster and accessing menus more conveniently.

The new design reflects Android design guidelines, best practices and the development of new Smartphones with fewer or no hardware buttons.

NT13-27269, 1.0, 12/17/2013 15

Figure 3 New Menu System

Some of the changes include easier access to logfile recording, pin pointing, settings configuration, user help and manuals. The menu is context sensitive to simplify user interaction. As an example the filemark button will only appear when a logfile is being recorded.

4.4.22 Automatic change of RAT-specific value elements in maps Both indoor and outdoor maps now automatically switch which value element is plotted based on current RAT. Automatic switching occurs for four basic important measurements: signal strength, signal quality and UL/DL throughput.

This translates into the following value elements:

Technology Signal Quality

Signal Strength

Signal RSSI

Physical UL/DL Throughput

GSM RxQual RxLev RxLev

CDMA/EVDO Ec/Io Ec RxPwr

WCDMA Ec/No RSCP RSSI

LTE RSRQ RSRP RSSI

Table 1 RAT-specific KPI

Without this automatic switching the user would have to manually change value element, e.g. to switch from viewing Rx Lev when on GSM and then RSCP when the device changes RAT to WCDMA. This convenient feature saves TEMS Pocket users valuable minutes and increases understanding of the network.

4.4.23 OtterBoxTM protection for Samsung Galaxy S3 and Note 2 Each TEMS Pocket Samsung Galaxy S3 and Note 2 model now includes accessories from the market leader in phone protection. The OtterBox Defender-series protection offers:

Robust, 3-layer protection withstanding drops, bumps and shocks Built-in screen protector prevents scratches Port covers keep out dust and debris Holster-style swiveling belt clip, serving also as desk stand, included

4.4.24 TEMS Pocket Hardware Upgrades The following hardware upgrade paths exist for upgrading TEMS Pocket devices:

5.1 Bugs corrected in TEMS Pocket 13.3

The user is now warned during pinpointing that maps that are missing a TAB-file will not be geographically positioned.

Improved behavior when displaying both primary and secondary carrier cells in the WCDMA cell list and during post processing.

Some of the line chart grids were displayed with an offset, compared to the Y-axis label, which gave the impression that the displayed value lines were shown on incorrect locations.

When loading an invalid or empty logfile the logfile replay controls can't be dismissed.

The remote settings (such as the Fleet Manager Endpoint) was lost when updating TEMS Pocket with the TEMS Pocket installer.

Some CDMA capable devices misinterpret successful calls as failed, which results in a Voice Error event instead of a Voice End event.

5.2 Bugs corrected in TEMS Pocket 13.2.1

Improved behavior when displaying secondary carrier cells in the WCDMA cell list.

Logfile upload fails if folder path is missing a trailing slash

5.3 Bugs corrected in TEMS Pocket 13.2

Stability issues related to normal phone functionality on Samsung Galaxy SIII GT-i9305 after running TEMS Pocket.

6 Known Bugs and Limitations The following bugs and limitations are known to remain in TEMS Pocket 13.3:

On some devices the window showing the YouTube video suffers from transparency issues when moved to the upper half of the screen. The movie will however always be shown correctly.

The configured Timeout setting for the Ping action is ignored on some devices, which means that the resulting round trip time may be much longer than the maximum specified timeout.

Enabling WiFi severly affects the resulting WiFi data throughput. The reason is that TEMS Pocket attempts to populate the WiFi cell list by scanning for new WiFi cells whenever WiFi is enabled.

The AQM action on the LG Lucid2 currently only supports VoLTE as call type. Aborting a scripted action may result in a log file that is missing the service

end/error event.

The GSM data view does not update some of its values on certain device models. When using TEMS Pocket for FTP transfer, throughput will be lower than when

using the phone as a modem.

The WiFi function in TEMS Pocket does not support distinguishing between 20 or 40 MHz bandwith measurements. All channels will be displayed as 20 MHz channels.

5GHz WiFi cells are not shown in spectrum view. If the Google account is changed TEMS Pocket might get uninstalled. Please

contact customer service for assistance (customercare.tems@acom.com).

The application layer throughput value during HTTP and FTP might have cycling dips when using GSM. The average throughput is not affected and is calculated correctly.

NT13-27269, 1.0, 12/17/2013 19

It is not possible to perform normal firmware updates made available by the device vendors (except on Sony devices). The device must be sent back to Ascom for update when such upgrade is made available by Ascom. This does not apply to the TEMS Pocket application, which can be updated using the TEMS Pocket install tool.

The built in Network Mode selection (i.e. RAT lock) in Android should always be set to its default value, otherwise it will interfere with TEMS Pocket and may cause unexpected behaviour.

During logfile replay when rewinding, or fast forwarding more than 60 seconds, the event markers in linecharts and maps will be incorrect or missing. To get accurate event markers the logfile should be replayed from the beginning to the end.

If IP Capture is run with high packet size, the throughput and/or phone performance might be reduced.

On Samsung Galaxy SIII LTE (all variants) the LTE uplink cyclic prefix might not be shown in some situations.

Cell Identity in the LTE cell list is not updated from RF information, it is only available when using a cell file that includes cell identities.

On Samsung Galaxys SIII LTE (GT-I9305) the displayed GPRS/EDGE RLC DL throughput is lower than the actual throughput.

On Sony LT25i and LT30a, the UE might begin to camp on an EARFCN different from the locked EARFCN when going from Connected to Idle mode if LTE inter-frequency handover is not disabled. It's suggested to disable LTE inter-frequency handover when using Lock on EARFCN.

On Sony LT25i and LT30, the built in media scanning in Android isnt triggered automatically when TEMS Pocket is connected to a PC by USB. This means that a reboot of the device might be necessary before files created by TEMS Pocket (logfiles, map sets etc.) are visible in the PCs file explorer. As a workaround some 3:rd party applications on Google Play can be used to update the media available and avoid restarting the phone.

TEMS Pocket may be terminated by Androids built in Out of memory manager if moved to the background. This is more frequent on devices with low amount of RAM, but may occur on any device. To avoid this it is recommended to always have TEMS Pocket in the foreground when measuring.
