Key Takeaway
HiCellTek enables complete SSV/CV (Site Survey Validation / Coverage Validation) site acceptance directly from an Android smartphone. Drive test around the site, indoor walk test, automated KPI validation against operator thresholds, and real-time report generation. Expected outcome: 2 to 4x faster site acceptance, with standardized reports available immediately. Key modules: Drive Test, Indoor Walk Test, RF Monitor, Speed Test.
SSV/CV Site Acceptance Testing with HiCellTek
Every newly deployed site must pass a rigorous acceptance test before going live. This use case shows how HiCellTek simplifies and accelerates the SSV/CV process by replacing legacy tools with an Android smartphone.
The SSV/CV context
After deploying a new 4G or 5G site, the operator requires an acceptance test (SSV/CV) to verify that coverage, radio quality, and site performance meet specifications. This includes a drive test around the site, an indoor walk test in nearby buildings, and KPI validation (RSRP, SINR, throughput, handover rate) against predefined thresholds. With traditional tools, this process takes an entire day per site plus hours of post-processing for the acceptance report.
Site acceptance challenges
One site = one full day
The legacy workflow (travel, setup, drive test, walk test, data collection, post-processing, report) takes a technician an entire day per site. Acceptance capacity is severely limited.
Manual KPI validation
The technician must manually compare each measured KPI against operator thresholds. This verification is tedious, error-prone, and delays the compliance decision.
Inconsistent reports
Each subcontractor or team uses their own report format. Consolidation on the operator side is slow and cross-site comparability is compromised.
Delay between measurement and decision
The acceptance report reaches headquarters days after the field measurement. If non-compliant, the correction/re-test cycle stretches over weeks.
The HiCellTek solution for SSV/CV
HiCellTek enables the entire SSV/CV acceptance process from an Android smartphone, with automated KPI validation and real-time report generation.
Coverage campaign around the site with GPS track, real-time radio KPIs (RSRP, RSRQ, SINR), and automatically generated coverage heatmap. Immediate outdoor coverage zone validation.
Walk test in nearby buildings on imported floor plans. Indoor coverage validation and signal penetration verification from the new site.
Real-time serving cell and neighbor tracking. Inbound/outbound handover verification, PCI conflict identification, neighborhood control.
DL/UL throughput measurement at reference points to validate site data performance. Results correlated with radio conditions (SINR, CQI).
Automated threshold validation
Operator KPI thresholds are configured in HiCellTek before the campaign. During measurement, the app indicates compliant zones (green) and non-compliant zones (red) in real time. The acceptance report is generated automatically at the end of the campaign, with compliance percentage per KPI, coverage heatmaps, and identified non-compliance points.
Expected results
Based on measured capabilities of the HiCellTek platform.
Complete site acceptance in half a day instead of a full day plus post-processing.
Real-time comparison of measurements against operator thresholds, zero manual calculation.
Uniform report regardless of technician or subcontractor.
Acceptance report available as soon as the field campaign ends.
Who is this for?
Deployment subcontractors
Companies performing SSV/CV acceptance for dozens of sites per month on behalf of operators.
Mobile operators
Network validation teams that must verify compliance of each new site before go-live.
Equipment vendors
Network equipment suppliers who need to demonstrate installation compliance during acceptance.
