For Rohde & Schwarz, access to these messages is critical to the development of test solutions such as QualiPoc that captures and analyses these messages for determining network quality and customer quality of experience.
Any type of interaction between a mobile device and the mobile network requires hundreds, if not thousands, of unique messages that are sent back-and-forth that verify all aspects of a mobile phone call or data session.
The quantity and complexity of messaging continues to increase as more features and capabilities are added. This trend will no doubt continue as the industry begins to migrate from 4G/LTE to 5G.
Hans-Peter Bobst, CEO of Rohde & Schwarz SwissQual commented: “Having early and complete access to the Interface Control Document allows us to develop more comprehensive test solutions faster, providing our customers with what they need when they need it. Our customers can rest assured that any measurements they make with our test equipment is technically accurate and legally grounded.”
