Dilithium Targets 3G Operators with VT-Probe
2/24/2004 - Dilithium Networks, a leading provider of wireless multimedia solutions announced it has developed a quality of service (QoS) measurement tool for 3G operators. The new product named VT-ProbeTM enables operators offering advanced video services such as videotelephony, videoconferencing and real-time streaming, to perform measurements on their 3G wireless networks enabling the assessment of the quality of real-time video services delivered.
VT-probe is a software platform which can be integrated with a test equipment vendor or system integrator’s QoS systems and enables 3G operators to test video QoS of their services offered. The VT-Probe uses 3G-324M/H.324M technology to make/receive calls at regular intervals to other probes in the network and performs a variety of QoS key performance indicator measurements that cover service accessibility, reliability and media quality. The H.324M protocol is an ITU-T standard which has been adopted under the name 3G-324M by both 3GPP and 3GPP2 standards bodies enabling real-time conversational and streaming video services over 3G networks.
“Conversational video services are a key differentiator for 3G operators throughout the world,” said Paul Zuber, chief executive officer, Dilithium Networks. “As more operators offer 3G-video services, it is clearly important for them to perform network measurements and gather call statistics throughout their network, comparable to that of their existing voice networks. The VT-Probe enables operators to perform a variety of measurements that they can use to assess service level quality of their networks and make improvements to their service offerings.”
The VT-ProbeTM is available to equipment vendors and system integrators now and is based on Dilithium Networks’ industry leading 3G-324M/H.324M protocol stack which has been shipping to customers since 1999.
