The General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) has become a standard to extend the services provided by the Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM). Through the introduction of packet switching technology, GPRS supports the use of packet data transmission, allowing a more efficient usage of the radio resources with a consequent improvement in the quality of service of subscribers. This paper presents some observations of the real operational GPRS network in a certain city by analyzing the characteristics of the data which was captured by monitoring system deployed in the Gn interface of GPRS core network. The distributions of the activated users and on-offline users were analyzed in this paper, as well as the online duration characteristic of mobile users. At last, the distribution of users and sessions was discussed, and finally some valuable conclusions were concluded for the mobile network operators.

Mobile service providers (MoSPs) emerge, driven by the ubiquitous availability of mobile devices and wireless communication infrastructures. MoSPs’ customers satisfaction and consequently their revenues, largely depend on the quality of service (QoS) provided by wireless network providers (WNPs) available at a particular location-time to support a mobile service delivery. This chapter presents a novel method for the MoSP’s QoS-assurance business process. The method incorporates a location- and time-based QoS-predictions’ service, facilitating the WNP’s selection. The authors explore different business cases for the service deployment. Particularly, they introduce and analyze business viability of QoSIS.net, an enterprise that can provide the QoS-predictions service to MoSPs, Mobile Network Operators (as MoSPs), or directly to their customers (i.e. in B2B/B2C settings). QoSIS.net provides its service based on collaborative-sharing of QoS-information by its users. The authors argue that this service can improve the MoSP’s QoS-assurance process and consequently may increase its revenues, while creating revenues for QoSIS.net.

India being a horticulture nation yet utilizing conventional methods in agriculture. Right now suggestions for farmers depend upon the coordination among farmers and distinctive specialists. Proposed suggestions generally given to them by using past farming exercises with help of their knowledge and experience to give advanced outcomes. The proposed idea is the utilization of mining techniques in agriculture to give best suggestions to farmers for crops, crop rotation, prices of crops, quality of seeds and recognizable proofs of needed fertilizer. The system can be utilized by farmers as an application both on web and mobile. It is an advanced cultivating method that utilizes  investigate information of soil qualities, soil types, crop yield information gathering and recommends the farmers to quality harvest in light of their site specific parameters. This diminishes the wrong decision on a harvest and increase in efficiency. With the progress of this rural modernization, agriculture site was progressively turning into a noteworthy instrument for farmers getting data about existence and generation. Step by step instructions to make the examination of the requirements of farmers viable to help them to discover the data assets of the Internet they were occupied with had turned into a dire and vital issue. It was vital hugeness in enhancing the structure and substance of agribusiness site, which could give better administrations to farmers and also enhance the level of modernization of horticultural generation.

Mobile network operators maintain data about their mobile network topology, which is mainly used for network provisioning and planning purposes restricting its full business potential. Utilizing this data in combination with the extensive pool of semantically modeled data in the Linking Open Data Cloud, innovative applications can be realized that would establish network operators as service providers and enablers in the highly competitive services market. In this article, the authors introduce the OpenMobileNetwork (available at http://www.openmobilenetwork.org/) as an open solution for providing approximated network topology data based on the principles of Linked Data along with a business concept for network operators to exploit their valuable asset. Since the quality of the estimated network topology is crucial when providing services on top of it, the authors further analyze and evaluate state-of-the-art approaches for estimating base station positions out of crowdsourced data and discuss the results in comparison to real base station locations.

The evolving standards of mobile communications, the wide variety of services they offer and the rapid growth of the Internet have made a merger of the two network technologies inevitable. One of the most prominent platforms that has been developed to facilitate this is the IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) concept. Many mobile communications standards integrate IMS as the main core network architecture and Quality of Service (QoS) is the main concern for customer satisfaction. A major approach to optimisation of QoS is the Differentiated Services scheme, and a simulation study of implementations of this is presented. The study covered an IMS core network architecture modelled with discrete-event network simulator software, with a Differentiated Services QoS scheme run over it with differing bearer traffic scenarios. Implications for core network architectures are discussed.


Nowadays, the research study community visualizes a standard shift that is going to put the focus on Quality of Experience metrics, which relate directly to complete consumer satisfaction. Yet, determining QoE coming from QoS sizes is a daunting job that powerful Software Defined Network operators are currently able to tackle through artificial intelligence strategies. In this paper, our experts pay attention to a few essential QoE factors, and we to begin with proposing a Bayesian Network design to anticipate re-buffering proportion. This paper suggested a structure for modeling mobile network QoE, making use of the vast records analytics approach. The planned platform explains the method of estimating or forecasting perceived QoE based upon the datasets obtained or collected from the mobile network to enable the mobile network operators efficiently to deal with the network functionality as well as supply the individuals an adequate mobile Internet QoE.

The increase in the usage of different mobile internet applications can cause deterioration in the mobile network performance. Such deterioration often declines the performance of the mobile network services that can influence the mobile Internet user’s experience, which can make the internet users switch between different mobile network operators to get good user experience. In this case, the success of mobile network operators primarily depends on the ability to ensure good quality of experience (QoE), which is a measure of users’ perceived quality of mobile Internet service. Traditionally, QoE is usually examined in laboratory experiments to enable a fixed contextual factor among the participants even though the results derived from these laboratory experiments presented an estimated mean opinion score representing perceived QoE. The use of user experience dataset involving time and location gathered from the mobile network traffic for modelling perceived QoE is still limited in the literature. The mobile Internet user experience dataset involving the time and location constituted in the mobile network can be used by the mobile network operators to make data-driven decisions to deal with disruptions observed in the network performance and provide an optimal solution based on the insights derived from the user experience data. Therefore, this paper proposed a framework for modelling mobile network QoE using the big data analytics approach. The proposed framework describes the process of estimating or predicting perceived QoE based on the datasets obtained or gathered from the mobile network to enable the mobile network operators effectively to manage the network performance and provide the users a satisfactory mobile Internet QoE.

The current literature provides many practical tools or theoretical methods to design, plan, and dimension Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) and Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) radio networks, but overlooks the algorithms of the network planning and dimensioning for core networks of GSM, UMTS, and IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS). This chapter introduces an algorithm for traffic, bandwidth, and throughput dimensioning of the network entities in the UMTS core network. The analysis is based on the traffic and throughput generated or absorbed in the interfaces of the network entities in the UMTS core network. Finally a case study is provided to verify the algorithms created for UMTS core network. This chapter is aimed at helping UMTS network operators dimension an optimum network size and build an optimum network structure to deliver an optimum quality of service for users. The algorithms developed in the chapter have been successfully applied in dimensioning a nationwide UMTS network in North Africa and adopted in an optimization tool by a mobile operator in the United States in 2008-09.

This chapter examines regulatory compliance, ethical behaviour and sustainable growth in Nigeria's telecommunications industry. It provides perspectives on the vexed issues of poor quality of service (QoS) that seems to have defied all practical solutions, unsolicited messages and the fleecing of subscribers by the mobile network operators, and other unfair business practices pervading the industry. The chapter wades through the controversy surrounding regulations and sanctions, and condemns the flagrant disregard for industry regulations by the mobile network operators whose actions are propelled by the runaway profit, which currently drives the stiff competition in the telecommunications industry. Based on the issues and problems articulated in this work, the chapter recommended among others, that the regulator should continue to engage the mobile network operators and other stakeholders in a robust dialogue aimed at finding lasting solution to the challenges impeding the growth of the telecommunications industry in Nigeria.
