3. Format of CEL File (UMTS)
In the current version of the CEL file, columns from the older GSM- andWCDMA-specific versions of the CEL format may be freely combined, withpartly different columns being filled in for GSM and WCDMA cells.
3.1. GeneralThe file is in ASCII format with tab-delimited data. There is no restriction onthe number of cells in the file, but very large cell files will slow the applicationdown noticeably. The default file extension is .cel.
3.2. File Header
The cell file header, which takes up the first line of the file, consists of arevision number and an identification string:
TEMS_-_Cell_names
where is a revision number.
3.3. Column Headers
The second line in the cell file is the column header line. It consists of tab-separated strings, each of which identifies a category of data. The set ofcolumn headers used appears from the table in section 3.4below; columnscan be arranged in any order as long as their headers are valid.
3.4. Data
The remainder of the cell file contains data. Each data line represents one cellname entry and is stored in ASCII as:
data1data2data3...dataN

The table below describes the format of the data in each column:
3.4.1. General Data
Column Header Data Content and Format
Cell Cell name. Text string.
NETWORK_CELLID
Free text field describing the cell. Text string.
Lat,Lon Latitude and longitude. Text string. The input format
must be one of the following, whereH is one of {N, n, S, s, W, w, E, e, +, -}, +representingN orE,
d= degree digit, m= minute digit, s= second digit,
*= degree sign, one of {*, , o, O, ^, }:
H dddmm.mmmm (decimal minutes). Here,minutes must be written with two and degrees withat least two digits. Thus, when entering N 4 2.86,
the degrees and minutes must be written0402. H ddd* mm.mmmm (decimal minutes). This
format, unlike the previous one, does not requirepadding zeroes in theddd* mm segment.
H ddd* mm ss (degrees, minutes and seconds;the sign for seconds must be a double quote,
ASCII 0x22 it cannot be replaced by two singlequotes).
H ddd* mm ss.ssss (degrees, minutes and
decimal seconds).
H ddd.dddd* (decimal degrees).
In all formats, the number of decimals is unlimited.
The presentation format isH dddmm.mmmm, i.e.decimal minutes rounded off to four decimal places.This gives a resolution of about 20 cm, so that theerror is negligible compared to other sources of error.

Chapter 4. Format of XML Cell File
NT12-7001 ver 1.0 11
4. Format of XML Cell File
The XML cell file format is used for representing (primarily) cell and siteinformation and for interchanging such information between products in theTEMS portfolio.
4.1. Scope of XML FormatThe XML format incorporates cell and site data for GSM, WCDMA, LTE,TD-SCDMA, CDMA (1x as well as EV-DO), and WiMAX. It also includesWi-Fi access point data, which is of interest for GAN-capable user terminals.
4.2. Relation to CEL Format
No formal mapping exists from the older *.cel format (chapter3) to the XMLformat, but the correspondences are obvious throughout. All columnheadings in the *.cel file have their counterparts in XML file elements; inaddition, the XML file contains further data. Just note that in the *.cel file,neighbors are indicated by their CIs, whereas in the XML file, cell names areused to identify neighbors.
4.3. Relation to TEMS Investigation CDMA CSVFormat
The CSV cell file format used in TEMS Investigation CDMA can be convertedto the XML format using TEMS Discovery. Please consult the documentationfor that product.
Please note that the CSV format lacks certain items of information that arepresent in the XML format. For example, the band class is lacking in CSV butis mandatory in XML (see sections 4.7.12.3, 4.7.13). This information mustbe entered manually in the XML files.

4.4. Schemas
The XML-format cell file is based on two XML schemas:
The schemaTEMSDataTypes.xsd defines TEMS-specific XML datatypes, derived from the fundamental data types set down in the XMLspecification. See section 4.6.
The schemaTEMSCell.xsd defines XML attributes and elements thatembody cell and site data, relying on the data types inTEMSDataTypes.xsd. See section 4.7.
The schemas are found in the directoryXMLSchema beneath the TEMSInvestigation installation directory. The syntax laid down in the schemasshould always be followed when composing XML cell files.
4.5. General Remarks on Format
The file format should generally follow the recommendation for XML 1.0. Seethe World Wide Web Consortium recommendation at www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml.
Files should be encoded in Unicode UTF-8 (RFC2279). They therefore needto begin with:
When composing XML files it is a good idea to use an XML-capable editor orother tool with XML support. To ensure that language-specific characters arehandled correctly, any tool used needs to support the UTF-8 encoding. UTF-8allows a set of more than 28= 256 characters to be mapped into 8-bitsymbols, by using two-byte sequences for certain characters. For example,Swedish needs to be encoded as_ in the XML file. Tools with UTF-8support normally handle this automatically.
The file should have extension .xml.
Free text comments must be formatted like this:
4.6. TEMS-specific Data Types
To facilitate handling of data, a number of TEMS-specific data types are
defined. They are collected in the schemaTEMSDataTypes.xsd. The
http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xmlhttp://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xmlhttp://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xmlhttp://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml5/23/2018 109506957 TEMS Investigation 14 1 Technical Reference

NT12-7001 ver 1.0 13
definition of custom data types enables range checks and validation of celldata. The data types are used in defining the elements and attributes of theXML cell file, as described in section 4.7.
All TEMS-specific data types are derived from basic (generic) XML schemadata types with additional constraints on value ranges or enumeration. Itshould be noted that these data types do not compare directly to theircounterparts in programming languages. For example, it does not followautomatically that the Long data types found below should always berepresented by a long data type in a programming language.
Full information on the basic set of XML schema data types, includingdefinitions of int, long, float, double, and string, is found at www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-2/.
Value ranges below are given in the form of inclusive minimum and maximumvalues, that is, the endpoints of the ranges are valid values.
The TEMS-specific data types are as follows:

4.7. Structure of Cell File
4.7.1. Diagram Conventions
In this section, the structure of the XML cell file is illustrated using treediagrams. A few conventions in these diagrams need to be explained:
Solid line box:The element is mandatory.
Lines in upper left corner:The element is atomic,i.e. it is fully defined in itself and does not containother elements. Non-atomic elements are drawnwithout these lines.
Arrow:The element type is global. Global elementtypes are ones that are reused multiple times in thefile structure, for instance because they are neededfor all technologies (e.g. CELLNAME, ANTENNA).The element type is defined only once in theschema file, and all occurrences of the elementtype refer to that definition. An element without thearrow is local and has a definition of its own.
Dashed line box:The element is optional.
Plus sign:The entity in the diagram contains otherelements within it. The subordinate structure iscollapsed in this case.
Minus sign:The subordinate structure is expanded.
Stacked boxes:Several instances of the elementmay occur. The permitted number of instances isindicated by a range; in this case, there must be atleast one CELL_LIST, but there is no fixed upperlimit on the number of such elements.
The element on the left must precede the element onthe right.
The element on the left must precede the elements onthe right; the latter, however, may come in arbitraryorder.

4.7.2. Overall File Structure
Nearly every piece of data in an XML cell file will be described as an elementor attribute. The main root element is TEMS_CELL_EXPORT; it has amandatory attribute VERSION which indicates the version of the cell fileformat.
The GENERATED_DATE element, also mandatory, indicates when the cellfile was generated.
A number of further, standard attributes need to be included in the cell file to
enable schema validation (checking of element names, value ranges, etc.):
xmlns:dataType="http://www.ascom.com/networktesting/dataTypes"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="TEMSCell.xsd" VERSION="1.2"
Please note that no path should be given toTEMSCell.xsd.

4.7.3. GSM Cell Data
GSM cell data is organized as follows:
The GSM element contains at least one and optionally several CELL_LISTelements. Cell lists are intended to be used to distinguish operators. Each celllist element contains at least one GSM cell. There is no limit to the number ofeither cells or cell lists.
Like the main root element, the GSM element has a mandatory VERSIONattribute stating the version of the GSM cell data structure.
CELL_LIST elements have one mandatory attribute, NET_OPERATOR.
For each GSM cell the following elements are specified:

TEMS Investigation 14.1 Technical Reference
24
Each cell element is a container that holds multiple subordinate elements. Ascan be seen in the diagram, only a few of these are mandatory. One isCELLNAME, whose value must be unique in the entire file. CELLNAME hasSYSTEM_TYPE as attribute; if this attribute is not set, it is implicitly assumed
that this cell belongs to the system (the communications technology) inwhose structure it is found, e.g. GSM.

Chapter 5. Cell Identification
NT12-7001 ver 1.0 45
5. Cell Identification
This chapter describes the algorithms used to identify in the cell file thosecells that a device interacts with or scans.
5.1. Cell Identification in GSM
For the cell file formats, see chapter3(CEL format) and chapter4(XMLformat).
The CGI step in the algorithms below can be performed only with devicescapable of obtaining CGI data. With other devices, this step is skipped.Compare the descriptions of the information elements Cell Name Algorithmand Neighbor Cell Name Algorithm: see Information Elements and Events,section 3.1.
5.1.1. Serving Cell
The following procedure is used to find a matching cell:
1. If CGI (MCC, MNC, LAC, CI) is available, look up the cell in the cell file.
2. Otherwise, try to match the ARFCN and BSIC in the cell file, alsoconsidering the geographical position of the sample. A position isconsidered valid if the distance to the cell is less than 35 km. If multiplematches are found within a 35 km radius, the closest cell is picked. Ifthe position is invalid, no result is returned unless a unique match is
found in the cell file.
5.1.2. Neighbors
The following procedure is used to find a matching cell:
1. If CGI (MCC, MNC, LAC, CI) is available, look up the cell in the cell file.
2. Otherwise, if the current serving cell is known, search that cellsneighbor list as defined in the cell file for a neighbor with matching
ARFCN and BSIC.

3. If the current serving cell is not known, search the entire cell file for cellswith matching ARFCN and BSIC, also considering the geographicalposition of the sample. A position is considered valid if the distance tothe cell is less than 35 km. If multiple matches are found within a 35 kmradius, the closest cell is picked. If the position is invalid, no result isreturned unless a unique match is found in the cell file.
5.2. Cell Identification in WCDMA
For the cell file formats, see chapter3(CEL format) and chapter4(XMLformat). Note the following:
CEL format: CI must be the full 28-bit Cell Id (see section 3.4).
XML format: Both CI and RNC_ID must be set (see section 4.7.13).
The following procedure is used to find a matching cell:
1. If a valid 28-bit Cell Id is available for the SAN (Serving/Active set/Neighbors) constellation, look up the cell in the cell file. This is possiblein idle mode only, because only then can the Cell Id be obtained.
2. Otherwise, try to match the UARFCN and SC in the cell file, alsoconsidering the geographical position of the sample. A position isconsidered valid if the distance to the cell is less than 200 km. If multiple
matches are found within a 200 km radius, the closest cell is picked. Ifthe position is invalid, no result is returned unless a unique match isfound in the cell file.
Step 1 is possible only with a UE. With a scanner, only step 2 is performed.
5.3. Cell Identification in LTE
For the cell file format, see chapter4(XML format).
The following procedure is used to find a matching cell:
1. If a valid 28-bit Cell Id is available for the SAN (Serving/Active set/Neighbors) constellation, look up the cell in the cell file. This is possiblein idle mode only, because only then can the Cell Id be obtained.
2. Otherwise, try to match the EARFCN and Physical Layer Cell ID(= PCI + 3 * PCIG) in the cell file, also considering the geographicalposition of the sample. A position is considered valid if the distance tothe cell is less than 50 km. If multiple matches are found within a 50 km

radius, the closest cell is picked. If the position is invalid, no result isreturned unless a unique match is found in the cell file.
Step 1 is possible only with a UE. With a scanner, only step 2 is performed.
5.4. Cell Identification in CDMA
For the cell file format, see chapter4(XML format).
The following procedure is used to find a matching cell:
Try to match the samples system type (CDMA/EV-DO), frequency band,RF channel and PN offset in the cell file, also considering thegeographical position of the sample. A position is considered valid if the
distance to the cell is less than 100 km. If multiple matches are foundwithin a 100 km radius, the closest cell is picked. If the position is invalid,no result is returned unless a unique match is found in the cell file.
5.5. Cell Identification in WiMAX
For the cell file format, see chapter4(XML format).
The following procedure is used to find a matching cell:
Try to match the samples system frequency band, RF channel andPreamble Index in the cell file, also considering the geographical positionof the sample. A position is considered valid if the distance to the cell isless than 50 km. If multiple matches are found within a 50 km radius, nocell is picked. If the position is invalid, no result is returned unless aunique match is found in the cell file.

6. Format of Cell Whitelists
Underlying User-definedEvents
This chapter describes the format of cell whitelists, which are composed in
the Cell Whitelist Generator of the Event Definition window and converted byTEMS Investigation into a user-defined event. See the Users Manual,section 22.4.
6.1. Format Description
Overall Structure
The basic structure of the whitelist is as follows:
$#,[],[],...[],
An arbitrary number of cells (LAC/CI lines) can be listed. The RAT, MCC, andMNC apply to all of these cells.
The above structure can be iterated in the following ways:
Under one RAT, multiple #, sections can be entered,each with a separate list of cells.
Multiple $ sections can be entered, each containing the abovestructure in its entirety.
Radio Access Technology
is one of {GSM, WCDMA}.

Information Elements Used for GSM
= MCC, Mobile Country Code.
= MNC, Mobile Network Code.
= LAC, serving cell Location Area Code in decimal format. This isoptional and will be left out of the event expression if not specified.
= Cell Id, Cell Identity of serving cell in decimal format.
Information Elements Used for WCDMA
= MCC, Mobile Country Code.
= MNC, Mobile Network Code.
= Serving Cell LAC, serving cell Location Area Code in decimalformat. This is optional and will be left out of the event expression if notspecified.
= Serving Cell Id (CI Part), serving cell C-ID (16 bits) in decimalformat.
Spaces and empty lines are ignored throughout.
6.2. Example
Below is an example of a valid whitelist. Spaces and newlines have beeninserted for readability.
Note that in the WCDMA section, the LAC has been omitted throughout.

6.3. Conversion to Event Expression
For a given RAT, each #,section is transformed into a logicalexpression of this form:
MCC = ANDMNC =
AND(
(LAC = ) AND (CI = )OR(LAC = ) AND (CI = )OR...
OR(LAC = ) AND (CI = )
)
If some LACiis omitted, the ith member of the OR expression simplifies toCI = .
If there are multiple #,sections, they are joined by OR at thetop level.

7.7.1. MMS Send Failure Causes
An unspecified error occurred during the processing or reception of thecorresponding request.
The client did not have permission or funds to perform the requestedoperation.
An inconsistency with the message format was detected when thecorresponding request was parsed.
There was no MMS address (From:, To:, Cc:, Bcc:) in a proper format, ornone of the addresses belonged to the MMSC.
The MMSC was not able to accept the corresponding request due to
capacity overload. The MMSC does not support the corresponding request abstract
message.
The corresponding M-Send.req as received was valid and understood bythe MMS Proxy-Relay, but some temporary condition or event caused anerror to occur.
The MMS Proxy-Relay was not able to handle the correspondingM-Send.req due to an unspecified error on the transport layer or due tocapacity overload.
MMS receive failure A failure occurred when retrieving the MMS
from the MMSC.
MMS send failure This error message has many possiblecauses. They are listed in section 7.7.1.
MMSC redirect notsupported
The MMSC reply is a redirection request.
MMSC request error A failure occurred following a request to theMMSC.
MMSC unexpected reply A reply was received in a format other thanan MMS message.

An unspecified permanent error occurred during the processing orreception of the corresponding M-Send.req.
The corresponding M-Send.req was rejected due to failure of
authentication or authorization of the originating MMS client. An inconsistency in the formats of optional or mandatory header fields or
an error in header field values was detected when the correspondingM-Send.req was parsed.
The MMS Proxy-Relay was not able to resolve the insert-address-tokeninto a valid sending address.
The MM content in the M-Send.req was not accepted due to size, mediatype, copyrights, or for some other reason.
The corresponding request contained a reply MM that was too large, notwithin the reply charging deadline, and/or contained non-text mediaelements although only text was allowed.
The M-Send.req contained an XMms-Reply-Charging header field withthe value Accepted or Accepted text only.
The MMS Proxy-Relay does not support reply charging. Thecorresponding M-Send.req contained reply charging parameters and wasthus rejected.
The MMS Proxy-Relay does not support address hiding. Thecorresponding M-Send.req had XMms-Sender-Visibility set to Hide andwas thus rejected.
