The Amdocs RAN offering is built upon network equipment vendor independence, in-depth expertise, and a number of successful RAN engagements worldwide. The offering can support a variety of use cases such as network deployment, acceptance, operations, optimization, and new service or technology introduction.
"Amdocs' RAN offering has been developed as part of an end-to-end customer experience focused vision to enable service providers to achieve the competitive advantage through comprehensive network performance analysis and optimization," said Frost & Sullivan Program Manager Olga Yashkova. "The offering provides a platform to unify the network and IT domains for a complete view of customer experience, and to help deal with the complexities stemming from Heterogeneous Networks (HetNets) as Internet of things (IoT) and 5G materialize."
This comprehensive product line offers the following key capabilities:
- Amdocs Customer Experience Geo-Location
- Amdocs Automatic Intelligent Correlation
- Amdocs Self-Optimizing Networks
- Amdocs Network Acceptance
- Amdocs Network Benchmarking
Amdocs Customer Experience Geo-Location automatically builds traffic and Quality-of-Experience maps to identify areas of network congestion as well as other network performance issues. It enables service providers to focus on the subscriber, location, handset/device, and activity for quick and efficient resolution of prevalent issues. The solution aids service providers in targeting HetNet access technologies as well as building location-specific demographics and revenue depictions by linking to Amdocs' business support system (BSS) data. Other features, such as customer, location, and usage behavior information, help service providers maximize the return on their network investment.
Amdocs Automatic Intelligent Correlation is a vital capability for reducing network issue resolution and optimization task time. By quickly identifying the root cause of issues, it has helped improve engineering resource efficiency and enhance mobile network performance in real-life deployments.
Amdocs Self-Optimizing Networks simplifies network optimization through automation, so service providers can maximize the utilization of existing network resources. Amdocs Network Acceptance has proved its worth in the RAN market with its ability to reduce risk, ensure network equipment vendor control, and enable the independent verification of network quality before site acceptance. Last but not least, Amdocs Benchmarking helps service providers make the most of voice and data performance benchmarking information. Using automated data processing and analysis, it identifies network areas of suboptimal customer experience or inferior competitive position. Service providers can then plan network performance improvements to reactively or proactively address customer dissatisfaction.
For its outstanding portfolio and the value additions of its solutions, Amdocs is a deserving recipient of the 2016 Global Frost & Sullivan Award for Product Line Strategy Leadership in the global RAN market.
