BARCELONA, Spain, & HERNDON, Va.--()--Celcite Management Solutions (www.celcite.com), the world’s leading provider of automatic optimisation tools and services for wireless networks, announced today the launch of iCOPS as part of its COPS-SON platform. iCOPS covers all technologies, including LTE, and is a powerful web enabled portal that provides wireless networks operators with a broad and intuitive view of the entire radio network.

In today’s broadband data intensive mobile market, together with the introduction of LTE, operators and equipment vendors need to be able to manage and improve wireless network quality continuously and proactively with minimal or no increase in OPEX costs. Today, LTE Self-Organising Networks (LTE-SON) technology is still in a nascent stage and does not completely retrofit to 2G and 3G technologies in a multi-vendor environment, so solutions such as iCOPS and COPS-SON have become critical to complete the missing link.

iCOPS and COPS-SON use Celcite’s proprietary Automatic Intelligent Correlation (AICTM) engine that enables a wireless network operator’s national, regional and other network executives to view the root cause for the worst performing network elements, analyse multiple network issues, and separate RF from operational issues automatically.

“Executives can access the tablet-friendly interactive dashboards via a single web portal at any time and on-the-go,” said Rahul Sharma, CEO of Celcite. “This allows them to obtain an instantaneous snapshot of the health of the networks in all the regions and markets they cover, saving time in identifying, tracking and trending. The root cause analysis of poorly performing networks and the intelligent correlation of issues allows them to apply corrective actions rapidly and accurately, thus minimising OPEX and improving customer experience.”

Celcite will be exhibiting at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, on Stand 2B13 in Hall 2. Click here to set up a meeting, or email us at sales@celcite.com.

About Celcite’s Automatic Intelligent Correlator (AIC™)

The insightful analysis into the wireless network that iCOPS provides is powered by Celcite’s Automatic Intelligent Correlation engine. The AIC is an extensive set of proprietary algorithms that effectively emulates the thought processes of an optimisation engineer. The AIC continuously collects a variety of data types from the network, including performance counters, config data, faults, trouble tickets, and mobile measurement data, and then correlates root causes with poorly performing network elements.

Correlations are performed at a cell level, prescribing resolutions for problem cells, including root cause analysis. The AIC separates RF from operational issues automatically with executable scripts or trouble tickets to action the recommended solutions. This results in a 70% gain in operational efficiency and allows engineers to focus their efforts on more advanced proactive optimisation activities and problem solving.
