EBS (Event Based Statistics)

The data in this database will act as a complement to the STS database but it is of more detailed character than the STS statistics. The data can either be stored in the database or in a Bulk Copy format file that can be distributed to other postprocessing tools. The monitors (counters) that can be stored must be activated in the GUI by the user, the user must have the correct authority to perform this action. The user must also select if the counters are to be collected for all cells in a specific BSC or several/all BSCs. The user can schedule the start and stop of data storage. The aggregation time, i.e. how often data is accumulated, can be decided by the user.

The data can later be postprocessed and reports can be created from monitors stored as counters by using the Business Objects tool. EBS and STS data can preferrably be combined into the same Business Objects report.

Note:  In order to combine STS and EBS data in the same report, it is important that the data is stored with the same periodicity
