2. Complete RF Layout Design and Implementation

3. Execute the Contractual System Functional Test Plans

4. Present and give overview of certain CDMA features and new RF

equipment.

5. Develop HLR Test Plans working with the development groups.

6. Automate certain C/I, C/N regression tests using LabView.

FOA ACTIVITY: Participated in several FOA's and Motorola-USWest. Was

involved in drive testing and trouble shooting the system,

using the Motorola Testmate platform. Collected and analyzed drive

test data, CBSC-VCC (Inter BSC) messaging, and BSC-EMX2500 messaging.

Used all the above for optimizing the system parameters. Generated

reports and recommendations.

DENVER SYSTEM STABILIZATION: Was part of the four member

Denver Stabilization Team. This was formed to fix the high rate

of noisy and dropped calls that were being reported by the customer.

Drove test the system, collected data, identified the problems and

implemented the fixes, which included correcting the frequency plan,

hand-off parameter errors and lowering the power box. The initial fix

itself improved the dropped call rate from 14.4% to 4.5% and

considerable difference was made in the audio quality, which was

measured by continuously monitoring the SINAD.

AWARD:Was awarded the MOTOROLA RECOGNITION AND APPRECIATION AWARD for

writing an extensive script that automated the analysis of data

recorded

in the field. This script would generate the PDF/CDF graphs for

SINAD, SSI, Power Level plus summarize a lot of other useful

information. It helped reduce the cycle time for the post FOA analysis

from 2-3 weeks to 2 days and was of extreme help in the Denver

Stabilization.

PROTO CERTIFICATION: Established a test format to certify

vendor phones on Motorola cellular system. Performed Hand-off,

Interference tests and generated reports.
