Sim Tool Kit (STK) based Drive Testing tool

Abstract

The SIM Toolkit (STK) is a set of commands or applications that define how a SIM card interacts with the outside world. The sim toolkit, is an application that is programmed into the SIM card and enables: • Drive mobile equipment interface • Build up interaction between the network application and end user • Control the access to the network Drive testing is common when a new network is created and the performance indicators are measured through moving specific in the particular area. It is also done where the strength is less and for measuring the parameters the issues are solved. This is done by the moving in that particular area in a vehicle with the required equipment in it. The purpose of our project is despite of using man labor and such an expensive method of measuring the parameters these measurements can be taken via sim tool kit, in which a program as an applet is introduced in the sim. And the option for measuring the parameters is then displayed on the sim tool kit application. And by clicking on this application the message would be send to the operator with all the basic parameters performance for the particular area and improvements are made, if necessary.
