Anite Launches Centralised Remote Control Solution for Field Measurement Systems in Mobile Networks
OULU, Finland, February 11, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
Anite's Nemo Commander enables mobile operators to improve the efficiency and control
of drive testing, saving in related Operational Expenses by up to 40%
Anite, a global leader in wireless network testing technology, today announced the
release of Nemo Commander, an industry first solution which enables mobile operators to
remotely control numerous field measurement systems.
Nemo Commander is a platform for centrally controlled network testing. It allows a
single user to remotely operate Nemo Outdoor, Nemo Invex, Nemo Handy and Nemo Explorer-1
test units in the field, tracking their location and status. This eliminates the need for
two technicians in a test vehicle. Nemo Commander supports all devices and test protocols
currently supported with Nemo tools, including scanning receivers.
With Nemo Commander, field unit configurations can be verified remotely to avoid
failed drive tests. In addition, hardware failures, incorrect scripts and other issues can
be spotted and corrected immediately rather than waiting until the end of a one-week test
campaign. By reacting without delay, both time and money can be saved.
It is estimated that between ten and twenty per cent of drive tests fail due to human
error. By using Nemo Commander to streamline resources and enhance control over drive test
operations, up to forty per cent of annual drive test costs can be saved - this equates to
between EUR200,000 and 500,000 for a typical mobile operator each year.
"Drive testing is an integral task for network operators. It needs to be
cost-efficient and provide accurate information about the state of the networks," says
Petri Toljamo, Managing Director at Anite's Network Testing business. He continues, "As a
technology leader, Anite is the first to offer this complete solution for the centralised
remote control of field measurement systems. With Nemo Commander operators can fully
leverage the benefits of field measurements to increase the Quality-of-Service of their
networks while reducing the overall cost of drive testing."
Anite will demonstrate Nemo Commander at stand 6I50 in Hall 6 at the Mobile World
Congress in Barcelona on 24-27 February, 2014. For more information, please contact us at
