can be part of the network, that is, an automatic voice announcement number in MSC, a
Diversity Call Server that is running as an answering station, or another QualiPoc device
running in Answering Station mode, that is, single CALL job - Answering Station. Currently, the job outputs the main test-related KPIs and MOS values of the speech in the
downlink.
For information on how to configure a Diversity Call Server as an answering station, see
chapter A, "Creating an Answering Station for QualiPoc Android", on page 97.

Stopping the Job on the QualiPoc Phone

The B-side QualiPoc device handles a stop command from the Diversity A-side device
in the following ways:
Stop command arrives during a configuration call: QualiPoc restarts the measurement job into waiting for configuration mode and does not save a measurement
file
Stop command arrives during a normal call: QualiPoc stops the measurement job
and saves a measurement file.
Stop command arrives during a pause in a normal call: Job continues to run until
the timeout is reached
Stop command does not arrive: If the call has already been configured and the test
is running, the call runs indefinitely; however, if you restart the measurement task in
NQView and QualiPoc is configured to receive the call, then QualiPoc restarts the
job on the phone after the configuration call.

A.2 Measurement Files

When the answering station is based on a voice call server, the measurement file option
for the server is enabled in the license. As a result, the server generates a B.sqz in the
result folder each time the voice engine stops, for example, during a reboot or when a
new default job starts. The related B.mf file is also created in the "Device" folder of the
MeasurementFiles folder. These files are transferred to the controlling laptop whenever a network connection is established.

Call Quality
Defining Call Quality
C Call Quality
The following sections describe Call Quality, which rates a complete call according to
subscriber experience.
The goal is to model how a subscriber would rate the call when the call is over. The main
quality determination is provided by the so-called "recency effect", that is, recent perceived quality degradations have a greater influence on the score, and a weighted average procedure, in which a strong quality drop has a strong influence on the overall call
quality.
To create the Call Quality prediction model, an auditory investigation was performed with
a simulated conversation in a fixed temporal structure [Neusinger, Berger: ETSI-STQ
04/2202]. This model can also be applied to test calls that consist of a series of test
samples that have been scored by P.862.1 or SQuad-LQ, so long as the defined temporal
structure has been met. The corresponding ETSI recommendation is [ETSI-STQ TR 102
506].
The Call Quality model contains the following steps:
Recency effect scores from the fist samples in the call are weighted less in the averaging process
To model impacts on call quality by drops of quality during the call, non-linear averaging is applied, which weights single MOS drops stronger than when the common
quality in the call is high.
C.1 Defining Call Quality

The Call Quality model can be applied to each call that fulfils the required temporal structure. To use the Call Quality model, you need to create and run a Speech measurement
job, for example, Job_CallQuality.ini, that matches the following requirements:
"Job type": "Intrusive"
10 x Speech and Speech-P.862 tests, that alternate between 5 x A->B and 5 x B->A
Sample length + Record hangover = 11.5 s
NQDI can calculate Call Quality during post-processing or during the database import
procedure, that is, the VoiceEngine does not calculate Call Quality. NQDI calculates the
Call Quality of calls that meet the following requirements:
"Job type": "Intrusive"
Only 5 Speech or Speech-P.862 tests in UL or DL per call
5 x A->B or 5 x B->A tests (alternating)
Time from the beginning of the first sample in the call to the beginning of the last (fifth)
sample in this direction is within the 100 and 115 s range
The Call Quality is calculated separately for the A->B and B->A directions as well for P.
862.1 and SQuad-LQ. As a result, four Call Quality values are calculated for Speech-P.
862 and UL/DL tests and two values for SQuad-LQ Speech UL and DL tests. For Qual-
Manual 1612011351 13.0.1
116
Call Quality
3 Viewing the Results
iPoc or special applications that involve a DL or UL test, only one Call Quality value is
calculated for the test direction.
If you use a default SwissQual audio file, for example, AM_FM_IRS.wav, to evaluate the
Call Quality, you need to specify a "Record HO" value of 5500 ms. If you use the
AM_CallQual_IRS.wav audio file, which is a special Call Quality speech sample, you
need to specify a "Record HO" value of 1000 ms.
Due to the short hangover time, do not use the AM_CallQual_IRS.wav audio file for
Video Calls.
C.2 3 Viewing the Results

If a job NQDI meets the requirements for a Call Quality calculation, the Call Quality values
appears on the "CallQuality" tab in NQDI.

Call Setup Time
D Call Setup Time

The following sections describe the call setup time, which is an important indicator of the
quality of service of a mobile or fixed telephone network.
To provide comparable measurement results across various technologies, SwissQual
measurement tests need to rely on call features that are common to each technology, for
example, the setup time. This document describes the setup time that is generally known
as the call setup time in the system. For a description of other methods to calculate setup
time, see the Manual - NQDI - KPI Users Guide.pdf document.
Fig. 4-1: Call Setup Sequence (marker in bold)
A common definition for call setup time is the amount of time that occurs between the
push of the send, dial, or call button and the reception of an audio channel by the called
party (B-side device) from the calling party (A-side device). This reception is also known
as the switch to conversation mode. In figure 4-1, the call setup time is represented by
the arrow between the Dial and Connected markers on the calling-party side of the diagram.
This definition applies to intrusive voice and video telephony tests as well as to nonintrusive voice call and call to any number tests that originate in GSM, UMTS, or ISDN
technologies.
Since CDMA, IS-136, and iDEN use tone detection, the Connected marker in these technologies corresponds to the detection of the first audio signal.
Based on this definition, the call setup time can easily be calculated on digital networks.
However, if one party uses an analog device or a technology that does not provide a
protocol message to indicate a connection, the situation is more complex.
Manual 1612011351 13.0.1
118
Call Setup Time

Dialing
D.1 Dialing
This section describes the dialing process during the call setup time of a measurement
test.
If the A-side device uses a PSTN device, the device needs to check the connected network for a dial tone before calling. This action prompts the test to add a Wait for Channel
Ready message to the measurement file. After the dial tone is found, the PSTN board
dials the number and the test adds a Dialing.. message to the measurement file.
Mobile phone devices that use time-consuming key press emulation also add a Dialing
message to the measurement file.
At this point, the test starts the call setup timer and adds the Dial call marker to the
measurement file.
D.1.1 Incoming Call (B-Side Device)

An incoming call is only registered by the B-side device during an intrusive voice call or
video telephony call test.
The remaining voice call types do not have a log on the B-side device.
A test adds the Incoming Call marker to the measurement file when the B-side device
detects an incoming call. The device has an accept delay of 500 ms during which a PSTN
device tries to reliably determine the presence of an incoming call. Devices that use other
technology types simply wait during this delay period in order to retain comparability
between the technologies in the measurement results. When a call is accepted and the
B-side device switches to conversation mode, the Connected marker is added to the
measurement file. After the connection is established, the B-side device waits one second
plus the "SyncDelay" time that you specified for the B-Side device in the test configuration
before sending the connectall.wav audio sequence.
D.1.2 Calling Party Connect (A-Side Device)

The test tries to set the Connected call marker when the A-side device switches to conversation mode. However, this marker cannot be set in PSTN or with technologies such
as IS-136 and CDMA. In an intrusive voice call, the B-side device sends the connectall.wav audio sequence that the A-side searches for. Upon detection of the sequence,
the A-side calculates the connected time by determining the start of the synchronization
sequence and subtracting the sync delay and 1 second. This calculation appears as
connected (+ xxxms) in the measurement file, where the number in brackets represents
the time between the detection of sync and the time of the actual connection.

Fixed Duration Tests

Fixed Duration Test
E Fixed Duration Tests

The following sections describe the new variant of TCP-based data tests for Diversity,
including FTP, HTTP, and Capacity tests. This information is crucial to understanding
and collecting useful test data.
The technology in a wireless network can vary from location to location. This variation
can affect the data transfer speeds of a typical static quality measurement during a drive
test, for example, when you drive from a high bandwidth to a low bandwidth area. If the
intent of your measurement campaign is to determine the comprehensive average
throughput of the network, the campaign will fail due to the different download and upload
speeds in the high and low bandwidth areas in your network.
The problem arises when you base this calculation on the number of successful transfers
of a complete file while driving at a constant speed for the duration of the test. Due to the
different throughput rates, more transfers are likely to complete in a high bandwidth area
than in a low bandwidth area over the same amount of time. As a result, the statistics
tend to be weighted in favour of the high bandwidth values, which can eclipse the low
bandwidth values.
The comparison of different networks with parallel benchmarking of standard non-fixed
duration tests can sometimes lead to incorrect and biased results.
To solve this problem, SwissQual has developed TCP-based fixed duration tests.
E.1 Fixed Duration Test

The fixed duration test calculates the average throughput values in a heterogeneous
wireless network. More specifically, the test measures the data transfer performance of
the network by uploading and downloading files with the FTP and HTTP TCP/IP protocols. These tests yield more measurement results than tests in which the data transfer
must complete. A fixed duration test also measures the constant output of throughput
rates over time so that you can compare the comprehensive throughput averages or map
plots from different fixed duration tests.
A data transfer lasts for the entire duration of the test and then terminates, regardless of
whether the transfer successfully completed. As a result, the test can directly compare
the data transfer rates in a mixed high and low bandwidth network and calculate the
average expected throughput from a large number of samples that are evenly distributed
over time.
E.2 Limitations
The fixed duration test does not calculate download success rates. That is, if a data
transfer successfully completes before the test ends, the test fails.

E.4.2 Capacity Test

By default, a Capacity test has a fixed duration, which you cannot disable. You need to
use files that are large enough to not completely transfer during the test. If one of the
active transfers completes during the test, the test fails. During this test, the files transfer
simultaneously.
The "Put" test uploads the files into the system RAM before the transfer starts. To avoid
overloading your system, do not select files that exceed the amount of available RAM.
The "Get" test downloads files, the "Put" test uploads files, and the "Get and Put" test
downloads and uploads files
To create a Capacity test in NQView
1. In the "Control" console of NQView, click "Tasks and Jobs" on the Navigation panel.

Fig. 5-2: Configuration of the Capacity test
The data to be transferred are buffered between the TCP and application layers. The
buffering can lead to differences in the amount of received and sent data for the same
point in time on the two layers and differences in the measured throughput. To minimize
the difference to around 5% error, use a fixed duration that is longer than the experienced
throughput is.
Recommended fixed durations for single transfers (get or put) HTTP/FTP test:
Throughput > 100kbps then 90s
Throughput < 200kbps then 60s

3 Example Scenario and Results
Recommended fixed durations for multiple transfers (get or put) in a parallel Capacity
test:
The "Capacity Get" and "Put" test are not suitable for throughputs < 1000kbps (GSM in
general).
E.5 3 Example Scenario and Results

In the following scenario the data transfers occur in a commercially available application
stack. The stack receives commands from an external application, that is, the measurement engine, which controls the timing. The timing starts with the engine send the start
command and ends when the engine sends the stop command after the configured time
elapses.
Fig. 5-3: Overview
Due to processing delays the fixed duration that you specify does not precisely match
the time that the transfer lasts.

3 Example Scenario and Results
E.5.1 Results
The fixed duration information is included in the measurement file as a test property. This
property appears as a special report item in the report generator.
To include fixed duration information in an NQDI report
1. Import the relevant file into NQDI.
2. On the "Data Selection" tab, click the "Test" tab.
3. On the "Test" tab, click the "Data" tab, and then click the "FTP" or "HTTP" tab.
4. Click the "Uncheck all selections" icon
then click the "Refresh" icon .
at the top of the "Data Selection" tab and
5. Select "Fixed duration" and click "Fixed duration" in the list.
Fig. 5-4: Include fixed duration in FTP report
In the "Parameters" area of the results tab for the test, the "Test timeout" parameter
shows the fixed duration information.

TCP-Based KPIs

E.6 TCP-Based KPIs

This section describes the set of KPIs for fixed duration scenarios that have been developed for release 11.1. Each FTP, HTTP, and Capacity test scenario has a corresponding
set of TCP-based KPIs.
Prior to release 11.1, KPIs were calculated differently, that is, after a non-fixed duration
when the download had successfully completed. This approach has been abandoned.
Fixed Duration KPIs are now calculated when you enable the fixed duration in the test
configuration. Non-fixed duration KPIs are only calculated when you do not enable the
fixed duration option. As of 11.1, the success and failure is also tied to the result of the
test. In previous versions, in particular 10.6.x or 11.0.x, mixed approaches were used.
The start triggers for the fixed duration TCP KPIs are the same as for the normal TCP
KPIs, for example, HTTP/1.1 200 OK for HTTPTransfer GET. The end trigger for a fixed
duration KPI is the last packet that contains data for downlink or the FIN;ACK for the
uplink KPIs. For more information, see the
Manual - NQDI - KPI Users Guide.pdf document. In general the retainability
KPIs are slightly shorter than the configured fixed duration.
E.6.1 FTP KPIs

The following KPIs are calculated for the FTP fixed duration scenario:
Manual 1612011351 13.0.1
127

TCP-Based KPIs
20310 Retainability FTP Uplink Fixed Duration
20311 Retainability FTP Downlink Fixed Duration
30310 Integrity FTP Uplink Fixed Duration
30311 Integrity FTP Downlink Fixed Duration
E.6.2 HTTP Transfer KPIs

The following KPIs are calculated for the HTTP Transfer fixed duration scenario:
20411 Retainability HTTP Transfer Get Fixed Duration
20412 Retainability HTTP Transfer Put Fixed Duration
30411 Integrity HTTP Transfer Get Fixed Duration
30412 Integrity HTTP Transfer Put Fixed Duration
E.6.3 Capacity KPIs

The following KPIs are calculated for the Capacity test fixed duration scenario:
20461 Retainability Capacity Get
20462 Retainability Capacity Put
20463 Retainability Capacity Get and Put
30461 Integrity Capacity Get
30462 Integrity Capability Put
30463 Integrity Capacity Get and Put
