ABSTRACT
With the technological advancement in wireless communications, the industry demands better and more reliable technology for transmission equipment. One of the most important requirements for the wireless communications industry is to manage base stations effectively for communication purpose. In order to provide the best transmission service to customers, base stations have to be spread over a large area. A large network of base stations requires a secured, stable and effective management system to ensure quality transmission.Parameters been monitored include UPS/inverters (output voltage, frequency, battery percentage when running on inverter) inside the base station, temperature of the room to avert fire hazard, the fuel level in the generator tanks. All these are necessary to make decisions when any of them are beyond tolerable limits that can damage the radio equipment in the base station which in turn can lead to network coverage problem.
Keywords:Base transceiver system(BTS),Base Station Monitoring system(BMA),Operation and maintenance(OMC),Base Station Controller(BSC).
