Network Test Service QoS

The rapid growth in cellular voice services has led to high user penetration. From a user perspective, there is now a growing demand for value-added non-voice services, not fully covered by the standard GSM infrastructure due to its circuit switched nature.GPRS and UMTS networks have been developed to give these services to the customer. These arguments are enough as to take special attention on GPRS and UMTS networks availability and performance.
