LTE AMOS Introduction for RF and UTRAN Engineers

LNA108 7060 R1A

Description

The main focus of this course is to give a detailed survey of the Advanced Managed Object Scripting (AMOS) for RF foccused tasks. The participant will after the course have a broad knowledge about the RF related commands and printouts on the CPP RAN nodes.

Hands-on practice exercises in getting Cell, RBS and related CPP node data is provided, dealing with the most common AMOS commands that a LTE RF Engineer should be familiar with to use on daily work.

Learning objectives

On completion of this course the participants will be able to:

1 Handle Managed Object Models in the LTE RAN

1.1 Explain the Managed Object principle

1.2 Explain the Managed Object Model implantation in LTE RAN nodes and OSS-RC

1.3 Illustrate the difference on Configuring Managed Objects using NCLI, EMAS and AMOS (OSS-RC applications)

2 Give a high-level overview of AMOS

2.1 Explain and describe the AMOS tool

2.2 Describe the basic function of AMOS

2.3 List and describe the AMOS command line syntax and regular expressions

3 Describe the relationship between Managed Objects and AMOS

3.1 Explain the Managed Object Model concept

3.2 Explain and describe the Management, Resource and Service layers

3.3 List the AMOS commands used for performance handling

3.4 Describe the commands for setting the configuration and environment variables

3.5 Describe the use of Mobatch files

3.6 Browse MOM from AMOS

3.7 Explain how filtering commands work

3.8 Describe how to use the offline AMOS mode
