Data Benchmarking

GWS’ Data Benchmarking reports allow operators to compare performance between competitors, markets and technologies; evaluate performance trends over time; identify focus areas for competitive improvement, and evaluate Quality of Service problems. Data Benchmarking reports utilizes key parameters that are independent of technology for comparison including:

• (RF) Connection Accessibility: A metric of the user’s ability to successfully activate a PDP session on the network.
  

• (RF) Connection Retainability: A metric of the user’s ability to successfully deactivate a PDP connection on the network.

• Task Accessibility: A metric of the user’s ability to successfully start a task. The successful task initiation rate is detailed by protocol and direction (HTTP, FTP downlink, FTP uplink).

• Task Retainability: A metric of the user’s ability to successfully complete a task. The successful task termination rate is detailed by protocol and direction.

• Throughput: Throughputs are detailed per task type.

• Ping Delay: Ping delay (round-trip) mean, percent of ping delay < 1 second and graphical distributions.
