Abstract :
This paper presents a design of an alternative Drive-Test setup aiming to carry out measurements in broadband wireless networks. Geo-referenced data can be extracted by using SNMP-based equipments and a GPS serial connection. After a trial measurement it can be seen that the proposed drive-test setup can successfully perform a geo-referenced measurement on SNMP compliant equipments.
