Syriatel has been using Actix’s GSM wireless performance engineering solution to optimize its growing network
September 7, 2004
LONDON -- Actix, the global provider of wireless network performance engineering solutions, today revealed that Syriatel, the leading Syrian mobile telecommunication operator, has been using Actix’ GSM wireless performance engineering solution for the last year and a half to optimize its rapidly growing GSM network - around 2500 new subscribers are joining it each day. Syriatel selected Actix’ GSM solution because of its ease of use, and its ability to enable engineers to solve more problems in less time, a critical factor in taking control of network quality as the number of subscribers increases. Using Actix’ software, Syriatel can solve problems that previously took two engineers half a day, to be solved by a single engineer in around an hour.
Actix’ wireless performance engineering solutions are entirely vendor independent and enable operators to analyze raw wireless network data in fine detail from a mix of network technologies, systems and data collection solutions. This gives an end-to-end picture of vital wireless functions and the quality of service delivery from the subscriber’s perspective; it also enables engineers to ‘drill down’ to the root cause of any deficiencies. Some of the operators using Actix’ 3G solutions include: SKT Korea, FET Taiwan, Orange France, 3GIS, Hutchison 3G UK, Swisscom, Mobilkom, US Cellular, Verizon Wireless, Bell Mobility, Sprint PCS, and Qwest Wireless.
Khalil Khalife, Deputy Technical Director, Syriatel said, “When a subscriber base is growing as fast as Syriatel’s, it is absolutely critical to be able to solve more network problems in less time in order to maintain the quality of the network. Actix’ post processing solution enables Syriatel to easily manipulate an enormous amount of data, and with a few clicks of the mouse, locate problem areas and understand why problems are occurring. Syriatel’s network could not be growing successfully at the rate it is without Actix’ solution.”
Henry McDonnell, Head of Product Marketing at Actix said, “A consistently high quality service is a pre-requisite for subscriber growth. As well as using Actix’ GSM optimization solution to maintain its network quality, Syriatel employed Actix’ consultancy services to develop a range of queries that enable the operator to exploit the power of Actix’ software on a highly cost effective basis. This operator-specific customization enables Syriatel to automatically perform frequently used functions, such as report generation for management and specific network location analysis, at the touch of a button. It is this combination of best of breed technology and consultancy that makes Actix invaluable to its customers worldwide.”
