A Call2AnyNumber job sets up a simple Circuit Switch (CS) call and outputs the main test-related KPIs. This simple test requires you to input the following parameters. Phone number: Number that you want to call Call duration: Duration of the call in seconds Number of cycles: Number of times to repeat a single test before the job ends
Single CALL Job Call MOC

A Call MOC job sets up a Circuit Switch (CS) call to an answering station. This station can be part of the network, that is, an automatic voice announcement number in MSC, or a Land Unit (Diversity Call Server) that is, running in a special mode. Currently, the job outputs the main test-related KPIs and MOS values of the speech in the downlink. This simple test requires you to input the following parameters: Phone number: Number that you want to call Call duration: Duration of the call in seconds Max call setup time: Maximum waiting time for the call to be set up Algorithm: Algorithm to evaluate speech quality Reference File: Reference file to play for speech quality evaluation Wave file options: Options for recording wave files during the test

NetQual NQDI is designed to help you to perform an in-depth analysis of your measurement data, for example, a detailed analysis of mobile network services and protocols. NQDI can quickly analyse CS and PS calls to help you to determine the main factors for network. NQDI mapping support includes more than 500 pre-defined map plot items in a powerful and fully configurable plot engine that supports MapInfo and Google Earth. This engine also supports configurable binning on grid or latitude-longitude precision. NQDI can generate reports in Excel format based on the measurement data. These reports can contain success rate and average pivot tables with PDF, CDF, and Pie charts. NQDI also has a trending sort function that can group data into time frames from one hour up to a year. In addition to the default extended set of NQDI reports, you can customize your own KPI report with the KPI report generator. For all details about NetQual NQDI please see Manual NQDI.pdf.
