Abstract:
Data Usage in GSM networks has increasingly become more important compared to voice calls. Smartphone usage grew rapidly in the last few years and Internet access via mobile devices is ever increasing. Experienced speed while using data, often called throughput, is a vital part of GSM service quality. Although throughput itself is a straightforward concept, evaluation of the values for throughput is complex. Experienced throughput value depends on many factors. Determining factors and their significance is central to measuring and improving perceived throughput. This papers deals with the evaluation problem and proposes a new approach to evaluate GSM network throughput experienced by subscribers.
