An Android-based distributed test data acquisition intelligent system for mobile network optimization

摘要

With the rapid development of mobile networks, mobile communication network optimization plays an increasingly important role, and the data collection before optimization is a very important process. This paper presents a distributed test data acquisition system, which is deployed in an Android-based cell phone that is conveniently carried. Our system uses a positioning method which combines GPS and LBS based on RSSI to get the location of mobile phones regularly, simultaneously the mobile communication networks status data are collected. Then the system uploads the data to certain servers. Every Android phone can be test data source, and these data would gather into a data cloud on the server side, which guarantees the quality of mobile network optimization. The optimization engineers can use these data to analyze the network overlay, received signal strength, co-channel and adjacent channel, cover extra, etc. Compared with the current DT and other data acquisition methods, our system is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, provides huger data and costs less money.
