Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current network performance evaluation systems face challenges in efficiently identifying and isolating network performance issues affecting User Equipment (UE) in telecommunication services, leading to suboptimal troubleshooting and resource allocation.
Innovation Solution
A network performance evaluation system that employs internal and external testing computers to conduct network performance tests, gathering metrics and isolating issues by comparing them against reference metrics, thereby determining the root cause of network problems and allocating resources to improve performance.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If network performance tests are conducted using internal and external testing computers, then measurement precision is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The testing system is segmented into multiple independent testing computers (internal testing computer, external testing computer) that can operate separately. Each testing computer performs specific measurements and can be configured independently, allowing the system to achieve comprehensive network performance evaluation without requiring a single complex monolithic system.
Solution Approach 2:
The testing computers are designed to perform multiple functions including measuring network performance metrics, isolating network performance issues, and comparing against reference metrics. The same testing infrastructure can evaluate different network conditions and scenarios, making the system universally applicable for various network performance evaluation tasks.
2Productivity
If network performance issues are isolated to specific regions, then productivity is improved, but loss of time increases
Solution Approach 1:
Reference metrics are pre-established and stored before actual network performance testing. When issues are detected, the system can immediately compare measured metrics against these pre-prepared reference values, eliminating the need for time-consuming real-time analysis and enabling rapid identification of performance problems.
Solution Approach 2:
The system continuously compares measured network performance metrics against reference metrics and provides feedback about identified issues. This feedback mechanism enables automated isolation of problem regions and triggers appropriate corrective actions, significantly improving troubleshooting efficiency while reducing the time required for manual analysis.

AI summary
In an example, an indication of one or more first network performance tests associated with a first testing computer and/or an indication of one or more second network performance tests associated with a second testing computer may be provided to a User Equipment (UE). One or more first test results of the one or more first network performance tests and/or one or more second test results of the one or more second network performance tests may be received. One or more first network performance metrics may be determined based upon the one or more first test results. One or more second network performance metrics may be determined based upon the one or more second test results. A network performance issue is determined based upon a comparison of one or more reference metrics with the one or more first network performance metrics and/or the one or more second network performance metrics.
