a VErSaTilE, PoWErFul TESTinG dEVicE BuilT inTo a conVEnTional PhonE
A compact, light-weight, and robust measurement application,
TEMS Pocket 9.0 runs on various Nokia devices, enabling tests of GPRS/
EDGE/WCDMA networks in virtually any location.
This simple yet powerful tool provides users with engineering trace
records and a real time visualization of the measured data on the display
screen. Users can set-up any desired connection such as speech calls or video
telephony, exactly as a subscriber would. The important radio trace and
Layer 3 information is then recorded during the connection sequence. Trace
and logfiles are always recorded, but no test scripts are executed.
TEMS Pocket Professional comes equipped with automatic mobile
application tests, including speech quality MOS and mobile IP data tests
(FTP, HTTP, PING, etc.) and SMS/MMS.
TEMS™ Pocket 9.0 is a versatile
handheld measurement platform
that both engineers and non-
technical staff can easily use to
collect network measurements
whenever and wherever the need
arises.

TEMS POCKET PROFESSIONAL BENEFITS
TEMS Pocket Professional offers automated execution
of user-controlled pre-programmed scripts, such as HTTP
test – pause – FTP test – pause – PING test. This feature is
especially valuable when the person taking network
measurements is not an engineer.
Mobile application protocol stacks are applied in TEMS
Pocket Professional in order to deliver an accurate, subscriber
view of QoS measurements and network performance. The
most popular test parameters include real speech quality
[PESQ (P.862)], drop call rates, failed call rates, FTP, WAP,
and HTTP throughputs, PING delays as well as delivery times
and success rates for SMS and MMS.
TEMS Pocket has flexibility where different network
technologies are involved. The same FTP tests, for example,
can be run over GPRS, EDGE, WCDMA, and HSPA (HSDPA +
HSUPA) networks in almost any location.
The TEMS Pocket phone screen with some unique GUI/
MMI functionality has been specifically designed to give users
the best access to measured results. One example is the user-
definable charts, in which the user can select virtually any
combination of numerical values for display in a line chart.
Replaying the measured data on TEMS Pocket enables on-site
troubleshooting without the need for a laptop computer.
User markers can be inserted, making it easy to identify
special events during post-processing, aiding in the analysis
and understanding of the situation.
The engineer perspective is also assessed, and covers
data ranging from signal level, signal quality, and interfer-
ence to serving/neighbor cells and Layer 3 messages and
RF configuration parameters. This information is essential
for effective troubleshooting and network optimization.
The troubleshooting capabilities of TEMS Pocket include
a versatile set of forcing functions. The built-in GPS can be
used in conjunction with TEMS Pocket to give accurate
position information.
For indoor testing, floor plans can be loaded during
measurement. Position markers are available along with the
floor plan for post-processing. Optionally, the measurement
data files can be automatically uploaded to an FTP server
upon completion of the test sequence.
Various data analysis products are available to process
TEMS Pocket 9.0 data, including premiere post-processing
solution TEMS™ Discovery, and QVoice Presentation, a client-
server based product with extensive database handling
functionality which can also be supplied for notebook use.
