24/7 Indoor Monitoring
Service Assurance has never been more important in the era of home working, Smart Cities and IoT. In a world of low latency and hyper connectivity, maintaining a strong indoor network experience is vital. Beacons allow network operators, private enterprises, and government bodies to continuously monitor the performance of mobile and/or fixed networks.
Beacons utilise predictive analytics to closely replicate user behaviours using commercial off-the-shelf Android smartphones. All data is fed into the backend SmartTools platform, where artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning models quickly identify any issues on the network, such as outages or degraded coverage, voice, or data experience, which can impact your workforce, customers, or machines.
•
Monitor fixed and mobile networks, ensuring uptime and meeting service level agreements (SLAs) for private 5G networks.
•
Automate alerting based on poor performance, leveraging the power of AI to proactively identify and address issues.
•
Enhance your investigation and care processes, by involving Enterprise/VIP Accounts in the troubleshooting process.
•
Compare and understand performance trends of multiple network operators and in-building distributed antenna systems (DAS) without incurring high unit costs
•
Continuous 24/7 indoor performance monitoring, powered by AI and robotic process automation.
•
Remote configuration and control of the automated Beacon test fleet, allowing for easy management of test scripts and technology controls.
•
Collection of key coverage statistics across various generations of mobile technologies, including 2G (RxLev), 3G (RSCP), 4G (RSRP, RSRQ, SINR), and 5G-SA (RSRP, RSRQ, SINR).
•
Measurement of data speeds using FTP, TCP, or UDP methods, including downlink (Mbps), uplink (Mbps), latency (ms), and jitter (ms).
•
HTTP web browsing tests, providing insights into page setup time (ms) and loading time (ms).
•
Synthetic video streaming tests to collect buffer time (ms), re-buffer count, and re-buffer time (ms).
•
CSFB, WiFi, and VoLTE voice call testing for comprehensive performance evaluation.
Beacon is used across multiple Sky offices to give insight into indoor connectivity so Sky can understand if their network is fit for purpose and where improvements should be made.
