CASE STUDIES

Connectivity, Software and Services for High Street Recovery Our high streets have faced unprecedented challenges during the last 10 years. The physical retail and leisure sectors have been particularly badly affected. Local Authorities have long recognised the challenges facing their town and city centres and have developed innovative place making strategies to overcome them. AWTG [...]

GSMA has just published a case study conducted by TOT ( Telecom of Thailand )  and AWTG on AWTG’s Integrated Service Assurance and Service Creation Platform ( iSASCP).  The findings were validated by GSMA as part of its Future Networks Programme, Network Economics workstream. This identifies areas where Operators can potentially reduce their Operational Expenditure [...]

Central London Benchmarking Central London Benchmarking AWTG has recently carried out a pilot mobile service benchmarking trial. The benchmarking was aimed at multidimensional and multi-level analysis. The project involved Benchmarking of four major Mobile Network Operators. The main features of the project included: Benchmarking of 3G voice and data service Testing and benchmarking the recently [...]

Data Offloading with WiFi enabled devices WiFi enabled Smartphones, Tablets and Mobile Broadband enabled Laptops have led to an increased appetite for mobile data bandwidth hungry applications. Many of today’s devices are dual mode, for example a 3G/LTE handset often has a WiFi chipset onboard. With the amount of cellular traffic being consumed by these [...]

AKT – Stability Testing – Scenario The main objective was to test network stability by measuring user experience over a period of days using a particular set of hardware. The network stability test provided user perception of the network performance by giving an estimation of speed and reliability of a simulated user by sending and [...]

Rich Communications Suite The purpose of this paper is to explain the rationale behind the GSMA initiative RCS-e and its relevance for mobile network operators. RCS-e has its origins in rich voice, a technology enabler standardized through 3GPP to enable data, video and messaging services to be invoked whilst a user is in call.  More recently, [...]

Site Acquisition Proposition for Small Cell/3G Data Offload The massive growth in mobile data applications and resultant broadband traffic has placed severe pressure on mobile operators. Put simply, 3G networks are completely overloaded, especially in high-density environments such as urban centres, transport hubs and public locations. Today with network capacity being stretched to the limit, [...]
