Experience
2021- 2025 TELEWORLD SOLUTIONS, 5G LTE TEST ENGINEER
performed drive lte, 5g drive test and provide analysis on corrective actions to meet the target of rsrq, rsrp throughput and other radio kpi
troubleshoot and analyze network with poor performance, optimizing the site/cluster. performed drive testing of e911 phase 2 (10 meter) testing to include non-emergency psap calls to collect and report the lat/long and address verification, etc
performed stationary, mobility test and cluster drive using xcal m and rectify the problems after analyzing lte dt log files of problematic areas
validates psap and vam call to comtech server and locations to ground truth location for accuracy and completes tvw
performed drive test data collection for pre-launch and post launch optimization for gsm, umts and lte networks
monitored system performance indications kpi such as rsrp, sinr, upload and download throughput
worked directly with rf teams to improve network and to make analysis on the data collected. performing test on 4g like atp, psap calls, vam calls, cbrs, laa, and 5g test like dss, c-band, clean-nr, 5g mm wave. Das, odas, small cells and in building tests
performing fiber characterization tests using otdr, cd/pmd, fiber slicing, power meter/laser source and fiber end face testing using industry standard test equipment
ability to troubleshoot issues on fiber network with the use of otdr vfi and other instrument .network installation and configuration, maintenance, support and documentation
2018- 2020 SPRINT, RF DRIVE TEST ENGINEER
responsible for collecting data to optimize the network and reduce lost calls and ineffective attempts
performed e911 testing, stationery and cluster drive during day/night
conducted a stationary test at the cell sites to check/verify the throughput (dl/ul)
investigated and resolved all ue and network related issues as required
conducted drive test with tems/xcal which involves conducting various measurements aimed at gathering specific data (call drop, call block, coverage analysis)
performed a series of the test at the direction of the rf teams, coordinated with them to assure that we were receiving the maximum throughput
performed drive testing of e911 phase 2 (10 meter) testing to include
