2.6.3. Samsung Galaxy S5 Connectivity

Samsung Galaxy S5 is an LTE Category 4 phone, handling data speeds of up to 150 Mbit/s DL and 50 Mbit/s UL. Supported frequency bands typically include a large subset of LTE FDD 700 (APT), 800, 850, 900, 1800, 1900, 2100, 2600 MHz and TDD 2300 MHz. The APT band is of particular interest as it has the potential to become an internationally accepted roaming band.

At least 17 models of this phone have been launched in various regions of the world. The following are connectable in TEMS Investigation 16.1: SM-G900A*, SM-G900F*, SM-G900FQ*, SM-G900I*, SM-G9009D, SM-G901F*, and GT-I9158V. Those marked with an asterisk (*) are also supplied devices.

2.6.4. Connectivity for New VoLTE-capable Devices

As the Voice over LTE service continues to mature among operators and across markets, we keep enabling more VoLTE-capable devices for use with TEMS Investigation. In the 16.1 release we added the following:

• Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini SGH-I257 (supplied device)

• Samsung Galaxy Light SGH-T399

• BenQ F5

• LG G Flex D959

• LG G2 D803

• Motorola Droid Ultra XT1080

• Sharp SG304SH

2.6.5. Other New Connectable Devices

• Samsung Galaxy S5 Mini SM-G800A

• Netgear Aircard 781S

• Pantech UML295

2.6.6. New/Enhanced LTE Information Elements (Qualcomm)

The following IEs were added to the toolbox for LTE performance analysis.

They are based on Qualcomm chipset reporting.

• Specialized block error rates for physical channels PDSCH and PUSCH.

These elements are updated once every second.

– Initial BLER: Percentage of first transmission attempts that failed.

– Residual BLER: Percentage of transport blocks for which all transmission attempts failed (block was not successfully delivered).

• PUSCH transmission distribution: Distribution of the number of attempts required to successfully transmit an uplink transport block (including residual “bin” for blocks where all attempts failed).

• Carrier aggregation: CQI extended to secondary carrier (“Wideband CQI”).

In addition, the following existing information elements were extended to Qualcomm devices:

• CQI Periodicity, CQI Report Mode

• DRX Enabled, DRX Inactivity Timer Enabled, DRX On Duration Timer Enabled, DRX Short Cycle Enabled

• MAC DL/UL Handover First/Last Packet Time (2 × 2 IEs), MAC UL PDU Handover Interruption Time

• PDCP UL/DL PDU Handover Interruption Time

• PDSCH Resource Block Start

• PUCCH G(i)

• PUSCH Resource Block Start

• RACH RNTI

2.6.8. Qualcomm Logs, Events, and Debug Messages

• Support was added for a number of Qualcomm ICD events related to call handling, IMS, SIP, and more.

• A new setting was provided for toggling all logs and events on or off in a single action – a convenient feature since these lists may be very long.

• An added reset button lets you instantly restore the default settings for all logs and events (“On”/ “Off”).

• Qualcomm debug messages became possible to monitor in TEMS Investigation for purposes of device troubleshooting. The severity threshold for showing a message can be set at various levels, from “All messages (low)” to “Fatal and above”.

2.6.9. Copying of Configuration Sets in Service Control Designer

In the Service Control Designer, a copying function was added for configuration sets. It creates a duplicate of the currently displayed configuration set under a new name. This is a handy time-saver whenever you want to start out from and modify a previously defined configuration set.

2.6.10. Support for Virtual Machines

In our GLS licensing system, support was added for running TEMS Investigation on the following virtual machines:

• Microsoft Hyper-V

Chapter 2. Recently Introduced Features in TEMS Investigation

• Xen

On a virtual machine, TEMS Investigation should primarily be used for replay and analysis, but data collection is also possible as long as performance requirements are modest. Please note that large device arrays should not be used, and that Ascom does not make any guarantees regarding performance on virtual machines.

2.6.11. Other New Features

• On-device POLQA computation was implemented on these devices:

– LG G2 VS980

– Samsung Note 3 SM-N900T – Samsung S4 GT-I9506 – Samsung S4 Mini SGH-I257.

• On a number of devices, LTE EARFCN/PCI lock and WCDMA UARFCN/

PSC lock were made applicable from within TEMS Investigation instead of using the TEMS Capability Control app. These include:

– Samsung S4 GT-I9506 – Samsung S4 Mini SGH-I257 – Samsung S5 SM-G900I.

• For smartphones (specifically, all devices built on the Qualcomm MSM8960 chipset), Wi-Fi was offered as an alternative method of connecting to the cellular network, side by side with NDIS and RAS.

• The Airplane mode control function was extended to devices not equipped with an AT port.

• The behavior of TEMS Investigation with respect to User Access Control (UAC) was changed to conform better to the intentions behind this Windows feature. Replay mode functionality is now fully supported regardless of UAC mode, also for non-admin Windows users. This allows staff to analyze logfiles on their regular office PCs no matter what user account rights they have, without having to resort to special test laptops or the like. Device activation and data collection, on the other hand, now always require admin privileges on the PC.

• “Airplane mode” control function

• Rohde & Schwarz enhancements: scripted scans; CGI data; LTE MIMO scanning

• Strengthened LTE reporting with Hisilicon

• Improved compatibility with TEMS Pocket indoor testing

• Full IP sniffing with lower processing load

• New information elements showing PC CPU and memory usage
