A method for assessing and improving network performance using video session data. Control plane signaling data comprising geographic location data from network monitoring equipment connected to a communications network is collected. Video session data comprising data of a plurality of video sessions from video monitoring equipment connected to the communications network is collected. The plurality of video sessions are associated with a plurality of mobile devices streaming videos on the respective mobile device across the communications network. The video session data and control plane signaling data within a cell of the communications network is correlated. The correlated data is provided to a communications network provider. The communications network is reorganized according to the correlated data.

Systems and methods for improving communications network performance using video session data

A method for calibrating geolocation analytic system in a wireless network includes receiving a first data set including measurement data associated with a mobile device connected to the wireless network from a first data source. A second data set comprising external geo-location data associated with the mobile device is received from a second data source. The first data set is compared to the second data set to estimate geo-location of the mobile device and to identify one or more errors using calibration function. The identified one or more errors are corrected based on the comparison.

Automatic calibration of geolocation analytic systems and operator network equipment parameters

The present invention relates to a method for locating at least one mobile radio subscriber in a mobile radio network, wherein to each transmitting station a value correlated with the receive field strength of a signal from this transmitting station is allocated; including the following steps: a) from the information determined upon connection setup, a table is created per cell, in which at least one distance parameter to the transmitting station of the cell is allocated to the respective receive field strengths; b) for at least one value correlated with the receive field strength and transmitted in the measurement report, the allocated distance parameter to the transmitting station of the respective cell is read out from the table created in step a); and c) determining at least one point satisfying the distance parameter(s) read-out in step b).
