- Present

Client: Airvana, MA

. Commissioning new ATCA Chassis (RNC 9000) and ensuring its complete

operation by configuring and checking the performance, reliability and

functionality of each blade like the Switch Module, BIO, System

Controller and RNSM.

. Setting up end to end data call by configuring the ATs (G-TRAN, Sierra

and Novatel air cards, Qualcomm FFAs) DOMs, ATCA RNC and the PDSN by

creating interfaces and routing between all the Node Elements.

. Good understanding of rev-A call control flow, handoff procedures, OSI

reference models and TCP/IP model.

. Hands on experience in configuring routes for end to end connectivity

between ATCA RNCs, AAA server, PDSN and EMS

. Ensure the functionality of different features and applications like

Basic Homing such as Primary and Secondary, Soft and Softer Handoffs,

Intersubnet Soft Handoff, Interfrequency Hard handoff, Fast Re-Homing,

Secondary to Primary Pdsn switchovers and vice versa, Auto A10 Re-

connect for PCF failure, A13, A16 Handoff for mixed and same network,

verification of Paging using preferred sector scheme, Last Active Set

scheme and Subnet Wide scheme using UDP send tool, verification of

forward and reverse throughput for REV0, REVA and e-HRPD calls,

measure the latency, session and connection set-up time of the evdo

call for both REV 0 and REV A, verification of clustering for both

mixed and same network by checking appropriate counter values.

. Perform all the above mentioned testing also using VoIP, Push to Talk

devices and analyze logs from both ATCA RNC and PDSN for discrepancies

. Configure AAA Server for Access Network using NAI and Round Robin and

verify the operation of end to end call with terminal authentication

enabled

. Verify the SNTP timing in ATCA RNC and ensure that it is able to

obtain the time from the DOM ( Data only module )

. Check for alarms and traps using Fault Client management and

configuration of ATCA through EMS

. Using GEM tool from Spirent in introducing delays in packets,

corrupting FCS and ensure that the RNC is able to handle such

scenarios

. Perform debugging of issues by collecting and analyzing logs from

RNCs, DOMs and ATs and provide technical assistance to development

team in resolving the issue

. Responsible for creating test cases by co-coordinating with

development team to decide on the expected behavior of ATCA

. Responsible for implementing and executing verification tests for

CDMA IS-2000 and EV-DO for cellular new phones during different

phases of the product lifecycle.

. Specific duties include testing various phone features like TTY,

testing from the server side of the carrier (sprint) through IOTA

and Device Configuration through OMA-DM and FUMO for checking over

the air upgrade parameters for both the phone's operating system and

for third party apps, testing mobile user interface, call quality,

data session connectivity and IMQ

. Analyze Call performance, integration, quality enhancements through

cellular network log data

. Analyze protocol headers using Ethereal and Wireshark.

. Support development team in both developing test cases by analyzing

and providing the manufacturing requirement spec and testing the

developed test cases for features like WAP Push, Wireless Data

Roaming, newly developed Q-Chat technology, Browser testing, Mobile

IP, Phone-As-Modem, E-911 dialing, Java, AMS, Picture mail, Voice

SMS, SMS, Bluetooth, Remote Diagnostic.

. Executing unique Sprint Acceptance Test Procedure for Vendor
