Radio network optimization (RNO) is the important step in network construction.

RNO adjust the planning and design reasonably , improve the network coverage, increase the network capacity, improve the network service quality and resource utilization ratio. Make the network operation more stably , and provide excellent

service.

Data collection is the necessary premise of analysis and adjustment. Optimization data includingDriving test dataDT,Call quality test dataCQT,OMC
performance data, Customers complains, Alarm data , signaling data and other data.

ZXPOS CNT ( UMTS Edition for Short CNT) is the professional network optimization test software developed by ZTE . CNT helps the RNO engineer to do

the test and analysis. Locate network problem and evaluate network quality and capacity, constitute the optimization solution.

2 methods to create map
1. Import the MapInfo format map

Preparation

2. Use MapInfo convert JPG or BMP format file to Tab format file.

Steps of convert JPG or BMP format file to Tab format file

1. Download the city map via the accessorial software ( for

exampleSupperget2000 series ). 2. Use MapInfo open the map
