Abstract
Network monitoring devices and network monitoring techniques are disclosed and use inferential statistical approaches to determine one or more Key Performance Indicators, particularly for Circuit Switched FallBack (CSFB) scenarios. For example, the network monitoring node monitors a plurality of ciphered or clear text messages for a network interface in a communication network, determines a Mobile Terminating (MT) count for MT calls and a Mobile Originating (MO) count for User Equipment (UE) from at least one message of the plurality of messages and defines an inferred MT ratio based on the MT count and the MO count for a total number of messages. The network monitoring device further applies the inferred MT ratio to a CSFB idle mode count for UE and/or a CSFB active mode count for UE to yield an estimated total number of CSFB idle mode successes and an estimated total number of CSFB active mode successes, respectively.
