Abstract:
1. A method for determining a quality of a wireless data connection on a radio access network, comprising: dividing, at a processor on the radio access network, a predetermined data value by a thruput of the wireless data connection to obtain a transmission time value; multiplying, at a processor on the radio access network, a data round trip time by a number of clicks needed to receive the predetermined data value to obtain a second value; adding, at a processor on the radio access network, the transmission time value to the second value to obtain a third value; subtracting, at a processor on the radio access network, a packet loss percentage from one to obtain a fourth value; and dividing, at a processor on the radio access network, the third value by the fourth value to obtain a data quality index value representative of the quality of a wireless data connection.
