Message analyzer and analysis method
First Claim
1. A message analyzer for analyzing messages which are transmitted via at least one service access point from layers of an Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) reference model of an end system of a subscriber of a mobile telephone system, the message analyzer comprising:
- a storage device for storing messages;
a selector for reading in a first sequence of messages,wherein the first sequence of messages is a sequence of temporally successive messages; and
a display device for displaying, on a single screen, a first region and a second region, wherein the first sequence of messages is read in by the selector from the storage device and displayed in the first region,wherein the selector determines, for the at least one service access point, a first characteristic feature of the messages which are transmitted via the at least one service access point and a course of the first characteristic feature is displayed on the display device in the second region,wherein the selector reads a second sequence of messages dependent upon a selection of a specific point of the course of the first characteristic feature that is selectable in the second region, andwherein the display device is configured to display a selectable marking produced automatically by the selector in the second region based on a predefined additional item of information stored during storing the messages in the storage device, andwherein upon selection of the marking, the second sequence of messages which corresponds to the specific point of the selected marking is read in from the storage device.

Abstract
A message analysis device serves for the analysis of messages transmitted via service access points on layers of an OSI reference model. The message analysis device comprises a storage device, for storing messages, a selection device, for reading a series of sequential messages and a display device, for the display of at least one first region and one second region. In the first region, a series of messages read by the selection device from the memory device can be displayed as a list. The selection device determines a characteristic feature of messages for at least one service access point, transmitted by the service access point, whereby the curve for the characteristic feature may be displayed on the display device in the second region.

9. A message analyzer for analyzing messages which are transmitted via at least one service access point from layers of an Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) reference model of an end system of a subscriber of a mobile telephone system, the message analyzer comprising:
-
a storage device for storing messages; a selector for reading in a first sequence of messages, wherein the first sequence of messages is a sequence of temporally successive messages; and a display device for displaying, on a single screen, a first region and a second region, wherein the first sequence of messages is read in by the selector from the storage device and displayed in the first region, wherein the selector determines, for the at least one service access point, a first characteristic feature of the messages which are transmitted via the at least one service access point and a course of the first characteristic feature is displayed on the display device in the second region, wherein the selector reads a second sequence of messages dependent upon a selection of a specific point of the course of the first characteristic feature that is selectable in the second region, and wherein a plurality of specific points are marked by respective markings in the course displayed in the second region and, upon selection of a marking of the markings, the second sequence of messages which corresponds to the specific point of the selected marking is read in from the storage device.

10. A method using a computer or a digital signal processor for analyzing messages which are transmitted via at least one service access point from layers of an OSI reference model of an end system of a subscriber of a mobile telephone system and which are stored in a storage device, comprising the steps of:
-
reading in a first sequence of messages by a selector; displaying the first sequence of messages which is read in by the selector, in tabular form in a first region of a single screen of a display device, wherein a first characteristic feature of messages which are transmitted via the at least one service access point is determined by the selector and a course of the first characteristic feature is displayed in a second region of the single screen of the display device; selecting, in the second region, a specific point of the course of the first characteristic feature; and reading in, by the selector, a second sequence of messages dependent upon the specific point, wherein during storing the messages in the storage device, a predefined additional item of information is stored, and dependent upon the predefined additional item of information, a selectable marking is produced automatically in the second region by the selector, and upon selection of the marking, dependent upon the specific point marked by the selected marking, the second sequence of messages which corresponds to the specific point of the selected marking is read in by the selector from the storage device. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A method using a computer or a digital signal processor for analyzing messages which are transmitted via at least one service access point from layers of an OSI reference model of an end system of a subscriber of a mobile telephone system and which are stored in a storage device, comprising the steps of:
-
reading in a first sequence of messages by a selector; displaying the first sequence of messages which is read in by the selector, in tabular form in a first region of a single screen of a display device, wherein a first characteristic feature of messages which are transmitted via the at least one service access point is determined by the selector and a course of the first characteristic feature is displayed in a second region of the single screen of the display device; selecting, in the second region, a specific point of the course of the first characteristic feature; and reading in, by the selector, a second sequence of messages dependent upon the specific point, wherein in the second region, a plurality of specific points of the course of the first characteristic feature are marked by respective markings, and upon selection of a marking of the markings, dependent upon the specific point marked by the selected marking, the second sequence of messages which corresponds to the specific point of the selected marking is read in by the selector from the storage device.
