NSPS stands for No Service Power Save (or similar) and occurs when you have no 
home/accessible network coverage, hence device will 'power save' instead of 
searching for it all the time. Basically, the field you're looking at here is 
current network status and tells you whether you're within home network, is 
device searching for network or give up and go into power save mode.

Don't know whether you want to know the meaning of other fields, ping me if you 
do.

You might also install NetMon app from extras-devel and have a look into its 
source (python). It reads that exact values you're after, so that might give 
some extra clues to you. Good luck.
