2 TEMS™ POCKET 7.3
A VERSATILE, POWERFUL TESTING DEVICE BUILT INTO A CONVENTIONAL PHONE
TEMS™ Pocket is a convenient and
powerful product for verification,
monitoring, and troubleshooting of
mobile networks and also for basic
cell-planning tasks. All these
capabilities are integrated into
commercial handsets which can be
used both as everyday phones and
as testing devices, allowing anyone
to collect data in a very
convenientway.
TEMS Pocket collects measurements and event data for immediate
monitoring or for processing by other tools at a later time.
Its combination of small size and powerful testing features makes
TEMS Pocket a unique product. Because TEMS Pocket is designed as an in-
tegral part of the phone, it can be used continually, not only by engineers
and technicians, but by people throughout the operator’s organization.
Because many users employ TEMS Pocket as their primary phone,
operators can constantly and reliably capture data from all areas of the
mobile network.
The tool is installed in a range of phone models. TEMS Pocket 7.3 is
installed on the superb new Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a and is also
available in a GSM-only configuration on the W995 EDGE.
An integrated TEMS solution
TEMS Pocket works with TEMS™ Investigation and TEMS™ Automatic to
provide the most complete solution for network optimization. TEMS Pocket
generates data with the same level of detail as TEMS Automatic MTU and
TEMS Investigation logfiles, and TEMS Pocket data can be analyzed in both
products as well as in TEMS™ Discovery. This allows for great flexibility in
network monitoring and promotes multiple uses of the same data.

Engineers can now collect valuable information
with normal handsets, at any time, and at any site. All
this translates into more-efficient overall use of the
operator’s network monitoring equipment.
It is possible for the TEMS Pocket software and the
TEMS Investigation software to be combined in the same
mobile. The network information recorded by the phone
can then be used with either tool.
With the new features in TEMS Pocket models for
the Sony Ericsson W995 line, operators can make their
workforces more effective by providing them the best
tools on the market.
Continuing to build on the success of TEMS Pocket
for the Sony Ericsson C905, we are proud to introduce
TEMS Pocket for Sony Ericsson W995 with the following
functional enhancements:
Scan mode
TEMS Pocket Professional offers the option of a
scan mode that can be used to visualize the surrounding
networks at any location. Simply set the device to scan
mode, perform the scan, and watch as the surrounding
information is presented directly in the phone’s display.
Command sequence improvements
A new configuration makes the command sequence
more flexible and introduces additional services. It com-
bines actions including voice, video, idle, FTP, and with
this release, HTTP and streaming, into a sequence of test
cases. The TEMS Pocket-equipped phone device is now a
data collection probe that achieves consistent testing
with minimal effort. The user simply starts a script and
the phone mimics user patterns in the performance of
various services.
Alternate data upload via WiFi
Built-in WiFi capabilities enable the user to achieve
even more effective over-the-air data uploads than ever
before. The user activates the WiFi and connects to the
network from any location. As soon as the user enters a
WiFi area, TEMS Pocket senses its presence, makes a
connection, and uploads all collected logfiles to a selected
FTP server with no user interaction required. This provides
an alternate data upload channel that is fast, cheap, and
easy to configure.
Event based data collection
Logfiles can be stored dependent on content
(events or tags) during passive monitoring of user
sessions or when a command sequence is used.
HSUPA support
The Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a models support
HSPA technology to both measure and utilize the
extended uplink capacity.
AMR-WB support
With the Sony Ericsson W995 models, it is now
possible to utilize the superior audio quality offered by
AMR-WB while obtaining an overview of the audio
quality that can be achieved with the new codecs.
GSM/EDGE support
One TEMS Pocket 7.3 package supports only GSM
networks, ensuring that operators who have not deployed
WCDMA have a solution that fits their needs.
