Hello experts

Does anynone knows how the MR Files in LTE Huawei eNodeB (SIG) can be parsed or decode without any proprietary tool?

2

Not possible, it is vendor proprietary data.

3

You need to use Huawei tools, like FMA.

4

I think so, too.

But then why third party tools are able to open it?

Yes with Huawei tools is possible.

I am wondering how to do it without Huawei tools…

5

Many 3rd party tools can do this like Ultime-mentor, Planet, etc ;

Use Huawei Winscloud inside Huawei to load your MR data directly in tar.gz format which contain signalling. And then Use Option Coverage Integration task option to create task it will decode the Data and will give you all the outputs CSV files based on 2D Grids Cell Level, 2D Grid Level Frequecy, etc

Alterately you can use huawei Genex Cloud and Application inside in Genex cloud use Depth Coverage.

3rd party tools might not provide the same level of detail or accuracy as vendor-specific tools.

Wireshark is a widely used network protocol analyzer that can decode a variety of network protocols. It might be able to parse some of the information in the MR files if they are in a standard format like PCAP.

LTE-Analyzer or LTE-Inspector are designed to work with LTE protocol traces and might be able to interpret some aspects of the MR files.

Tools used for LTE drive testing often come with the capability to process MR files generated during the drive tests. These tools might have some built-in parsers to extract useful information.

If you have a good understanding of the LTE protocol and the structure of MR files, you can write custom scripts in languages like Python to extract and interpret the relevant information.
