QVoice Symphony Exceeds User Expectations
31 May 2006
QVoice Symphony with its unique flexibility, unprecedented processing power and virtually unlimited user choice finds quick market acceptance.
QVoice Symphony, joining the QVoice family of QVM3G, QVoice Smart and QVoice Companion, is being equally well received by both existing Ascom customers migrating upwards and new operators choosing to join the QVoice family. The reasons for the success stem back to the design.
QVoice Symphony was created to logically and comfortably handle the simplest to the most demanding network testing and optimisation requirements. The system reflects the diversity of the mobile network market itself and is part of the fifth generation of QVoice.
QVoice Symphony's construction is totally modular, empowering users with complete freedom to configure their systems how they want - and to alter them with ease when desired. The system boasts an intuitive user interface with unique features and user flexible hardware that can be tailored to satisfy every testing scenario.
Whether an operator is interested in revenue-generating speech call quality or maintaining performance of technically demanding video applications, QVoice Symphony is ready for the task.
The system is equally suitable for benchmarking with one to 24 channels or carrying out optimisation that demands the finest engineering detail. QVoice Symphony elegantly enhances the efficacy of data collection and efficiency of measurement analysis.
This unrivalled flexibility is achieved by a unique system component design in 'user-speak' MUM, MEC and MIA.
- MUM - the Measurement Unit Main is the chassis which contains slots for six measurement channels, as well as a control unit with its own power supply
- MEC - the Measurement Execution Controller empowers the user to decide for himself how much or how little processing power he needs to achieve his measurement priorities
- MIA - Measurement Interface Adaptors are a measurement device consisting of a test mobile housed in an easy-to-manipulate tray connected to a MIA
A chassis with six measurement channels will have six MIAs, each containing one measurement device and a dedicated DSP. The system can be extended up to 24 channels. Once configured, users have the option to add more chassis, more processors or more test mobile interfaces. They can also re-assemble their hardware configuration when test requirements are modified or further evolve.
In addition to the power of choice and unprecedented flexibility in processing power, configuration, pricing, the scope of test applications address all the current and emerging 3G multimedia services. These range voice call and IP-data (FTP, HTTP, UDP, PING) to video streaming and video telephony. RF-scanning, email, WAP, SMS, and MMS are also available. To insure compatibility and for benchmarking, all QVoice Symphony measurement KPIs are based on internationally recognised standards - for instance, ETSI TS 102 205.
