Statistics & Analysis

 Description:
The BTS periodically measures and reports its power consumption to the M2000, which can deliver some statistics
report for power consumption analysis. Available in GSM, UMTS, LTE.

 Benefit:
Easy monitoring of the BTS power consumption.

BS Traffic and Energy Consumption

How to get a graph:
1) Select the BTS to be displayed,
2) Display EC, traffic(select CS/PS/CS+PS),
3) List display each BTS’ data, or sum up all selected BTS
data,
4) Select part of BTS to display,
5) Save the graph and date to XLS/CSV file, so we can do
more analysis to the data.
