Italy : Innovative Italian mobile operator WIND has selected network
quality of service (QoS) monitoring experts CommProve to maximise
the performance of its 3G network. WIND will integrate CommProve's
GSP (General Statistical Package) into its network to deliver continuous
performance measurements, information that will enable the network
to be optimised to deliver maximum quality of service to WIND's 3G
subscriber base.
The statistical
reporting delivered by the CommProve GSP provides direct access to
network performance measurements. This enables WIND to continuously
monitor and adapt its Key Quality Indicators (KQIs), the rules by
which quality levels are determined. The level of reporting enabled
by the GSP is crucial in 3G networks where the quality of service
depends on the operators' ability to continuously monitor and adapt
the KQIs.
As WIND's mobile
customer base continues to grow, so do the quality of service demands
of those subscribers. The range of telecommunications services provided
by WIND, which include fixed line and iMode, as well as Italy's leading
Internet portal, means it is critical that each network performs at
optimal level. CommProve's GSP solution enables WIND to guarantee
the level of service quality delivered to their subscribers, ensuring
a more satisfied customer base.
Adam Tarshis,
Vice President of Business Consulting for CommProve, said: "We
are seeing more and more operators looking to set solid and reliable
quality levels. Today's mobile users expect nothing less. By integrating
CommProve's GSP System, operators can meet those subscriber expectations
while ensuring the network infrastructure not only remains robust,
but has the flexibility to react to increased network traffic and
the introduction of new applications."
CommProve's GSP
System is a flexible and powerful performance management tool providing
mobile operators with the capability to monitor and subsequently optimise
their networks. The GSP System is specifically designed to handle
complex multi-vendor and multi-technology networks. It gives direct
access to all measurements produced by network elements, providing
the system's users with full control in defining Key Performance Indicators
(KPIs), and KQIs. This flexibility is particularly crucial in 3G networks
where the deployment of a complete new infrastructure supporting new
value added services needs continuous monitoring and adaptation of
the KQIs.
CommProve's GSP
System can be integrated with the company's Netledge portfolio of
products. These provide network operators with real time, relevant
and accurate information on network performance based on direct subscriber
experience. Netledge enables operators to take immediate action to
resolve issues and minimise revenue leakage as well as improving the
quality perceived by the end user.
