Keysight TechnologiesSignaling Analyzer FamilyTechnology to quickly solve problems intoday’s complex mobile network

DNA HD with 16 port GigE

The mobile network is evolving to LTE/SAE where voice and data services all reside in one high-speed, IP/Ethernet EPC and OFDM based radio access network. To satisfy the new requirements of monitoring 4th generation mobile radio access and core networks, a new generation of protocol analyzers is required. The Keysight Technologies, Inc. Signaling Analyzer family maximizes the effectiveness of engineers that develop, plan, install, optimize and troubleshoot complex mobile net-works. This robust product family is designed to solve the needs of higher intelligence and performance required for 3G evolution and 4G wireless technologies.

The solution offers a breakthrough in troubleshooting methodology with a high-perfor-mance, client server, multi-user architecture and seamless drill-down from statistics and call traces to messages and decodes. This solution allows complete and uniform testing of network and individual call performance across all mobile network technolo-gies and call types. This speeds and simplifies resolution of even the most complex interoperability problems in telephony.

Faster 2G, 2.5G, 3G and 4G deployment and troubleshooting – Support of LTE/SAE, UMTS, HSDPA, Femto Cell, GERAN, UTRAN, GSM, GPRS, EDGE, CDMAOne, CDMA2000, IMS, VoIP, SS7, vendor variants, etc.

– Full auto-configuration for LTE/SAE and UMTS technologies and network interfaces

– Graphical call trace for rapid troubleshooting and problem isolation with unique drill-down to messages and decodes

– Graphical statistics and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to visualize a variety of information elements and performance of network elements such as call success ratios, signaling and call load, failure cause value dis-tributions, cause value rates, user-plane performance and service delivery degredation KPIs and metrics.

– End-to-end visualization of mobile voice, video and data services

– Demux and channelization support for HDLC and ATM in a structured OC-3/OC12 and STM-1/STM-4

– Pseudo RNC RLC/MAC reassembly on a per-call basis emulating an UMTS RNC

– High performance, real-time and fully automatic deciphering of S1 NAS, Iub and Gb links

– Different methods applied to ensure successful testing with IPSec from Null Encryption support to real time IPSec decryption

– Higher-layer protocols filtering in hardware and software with intelligent LTE and UMTS Control Plane analysis vs. User Plane analysis

Lower cost of ownership – Multi-user functionality enables high-performance, multi-client analysis by several clients in a single solution. All clients have simultaneous yet fully indepen-dent access to measurements flowing through the same hard-ware platform without impact-ing or limiting performance of the overall system.

– Remote clients can connect, autoconfigure and analyze in minutes. Multi-technology capabilities provide the abil-ity to trace calls in IMS, SS7, SS7/IP, 2G, 2.5G and 3G mobile networks, which simplifies resolution of the most complex interoperability problems in telephony.

– Portable and centralized time synchronized test platform pro-vides multi-segment analysis and highest port and logical interface densities across E1/T1, STM-1/OC-3 and GigE in the industry

– Fully-automated control, test results enable generation and data log file management via XML API

– Flexible data logging options enable the user to choose how, where and when to capture and save data

– Running on the Keysight DNA-HD, DNA and DNA PRO platforms to leverage the same hardware used for data analysis, enables customers to derive even greater benefits from their investment in test tools.

Get Beyond the Protocol

Signaling Analyzer-one integrated multi-technology-ready solution

Multi Technology Ready SolutionProviding one application framework with a common feature set, Signaling Analyzer offers a single and integrated multi-technology solution. By utilizing a uniform application framework for all technology needs within both the engineering and operations organizations, customers save upfront costs through the

Quick Problem Isolation with just ‘Three Clicks’ of the MouseSignaling Analyzer is an efficient troubleshooting application that enables customers to find network problems and service degradation with just 3 clicks of the mouse. Start by enabling the call trace engine. The phase graphics display call and session events in various icons and color codes. This allows you to make an immediate decision which calls to focus on for troubleshooting. Clicking on the call trace line item brings you straight into the message and decodes for analysis of a specific call of interest.

technology evolution and realize significant ongoing Opex savings in the future. Additionally, as new multi-band, multi-technology base stations evolve, it is critical that the protocol analysis solution you standardize on is available in a single, integrated application and is prepared to take on the challenges of this evolution.

Multi-UserThe Signaling Analyzer Multi-User System enables high-performance multi-client analysis by several clients in a single solution. All clients have simultaneous yet fully independent access to measurements flowing through the same hardware platform without impacting or limiting perfor-mance of the overall system. This solution provides the most flexible, truly scalable and high performance approach to multi-user functionality in the industry today.

Signaling Analyzer-industry-leading, multi-user solution provides unique flexibility and scaleability

Call ManagerCall Manager enables engineers who are tasked with service optimization, service assurance, troubleshooting or network maintenance to quickly find problems among millions of calls in the wireless network. Call Manager, designed with historic analytics, scalability and flexibility in mind, allows a large number of users to analyze data from various Call Manager Databases in the network in a fully distributed environment. All Call Manager Clients can share Call Manager Databases concurrently. At the same time, they can independently analyze the calls from a certain time span, on a particular network segment or related to particular subscribers.

Leading the Technology Evolution

ConclusionIn summary, the Signaling Analyzer portfolio provides a broad range of wireless technology support in one of the most scalable and high performance platforms the test and measurement industry has to offer.
