Motorola Solutions’ TRACES Enables Real Time Coverage Monitoring for Mission-Critical Network Operators

Business Wire
TETRA WORLD CONGRESS, Motorola Solutions (NYSE: MSI) has
today announced the launch of the second generation of the TETRA
(TErrestrial Trunked RAdio) RF Automated Coverage Evaluation System
(TRACES). TRACES now allows public safety network operators to
collect, visualise and evaluate real-time data from
mission-critical TETRA networks allowing them to view usage
patterns and quickly identify and react to coverage black spots,
thereby maintaining a stable network at all times for users in the
field.
The new TRACES version builds a detailed picture of the entire
mission critical network by automatically and continuously
capturing network performance data from actual user devices and
base stations.
Real time Information availability also allows network operators
to monitor their compliance against typical KPI and SLA
criteria.
KEY FACTS
- TRACES is designed to be flexible, easy
to install and modular. The new version of TRACES can be customized
to mission critical network operator needs whether they solely
manage a network or whether they also have their own fleet of
users.
- The new Uplink Measurement Report (UMR)
module, the latest TRACES innovation, enables Operators to collect
real-time data from their Motorola Dimetra IP network system over
ETSI GPS signals from any TETRA user radio while they are in use in
the field. This enables operators managing to gain a comprehensive
view of network coverage from an end-user perspective, without
actually owning a fleet of TETRA radios.
- The first generation of TRACES focuses
on recording coverage issues (Downlink Measurement Reports - DMR)
via the radio as it’s used in the field. Issues are uploaded to the
TRACES server once the radio is docked in the Motorola charger. The
second generation of TRACES collects real-time data from base
stations (UMR) and devices while in use.
- The use of TRACES as an analytical tool
can also greatly reduce maintenance costs because it averts the
need for regular drive testing in problem areas.
- When changes occur on the network the
actual coverage that is being supplied by the network is quickly
visible to the operator who no longer has to rely on predicted
coverage maps.
- TRACES enables network administrators
to instantly analyse measurement reports and statistics created
from end-user radios and network devices. This allows effective and
rapid identification and tracking of network coverage issues and
changes.
- The new generation of TRACES is being
launched at TETRA World Congress 2012 and a demonstration of the
system is available on the Motorola stand, Dubai International
Convention and Exhibition Centre, [Booth G301, Sheikh Rashid
Hall].
SUPPORTING QUOTES
Gary Aitkenhead, vice president, Global Services
Organization, Motorola Solutions, EMEA:
“Motorola Solutions launched TRACES as a revolutionary
application that initially enabled end-user organisations to gain
visibility of network coverage issues via their TETRA terminals.
The latest generation of TRACES opens those capabilities to network
operators and allows them to access and use exactly the same
information. This will help to create a single understanding across
the TETRA network and have a hugely positive impact on the cost,
complexity and time requirement of maintaining TETRA networks for
both the operator and the end-user. The new generation of TRACES is
revolutionising service and longer term network planning for both
network administrators and end users.”
