Shaping the future of
5G, IoT and beyond
Delivering expertise, tools and solutions

Experience and expertise
Wireless connectivity is driving technological developments and enables
a multitude of other business models.
The potential of IoT is already visible, as
well as other mobile communication
technologies used in machine-to-machine communication. 5G will further
extend these possibilities.
Focus Infocom provides you with theexpertise, tools, resources and services
you need to leverage mobile communication technologies and to make factdriven strategic decisions
Whether you are taking your first steps
in this sector or whether you want toimprove and expand on what you havealready achieved, we are here to support you with our solutions.

With our service portfolio we can support your business model in many ways:■ Delivery of tools and systems■ Task-specific campaigns■ Planning and execution of measurements and ongoing operational
monitoring, data processing■ Assistance in communication withsuppliers and evaluation of offered
solutionsWith our commitment to standards andour engagement in standardization
bodies, e.g. the creation of Technical
Reports for the 5G and IoT ecosystems,
we are at the edge of and actively
shaping technical developments.
Building on this expertise, we createhigh-quality, client specific metrics.

Investments decisions based on facts
Solid information is the basis for every
investment decision. We offer the tools
and the expertise to reliably generate
this foundation.

To this end, they perform the sameactivities as real users: making phone
calls, surfing the internet, watching
videos and using various apps.

The common basis of all solutions aresystems that provide insight into thequality of service from the user’s pointof view.

Depending on the type of information
you need, choose from a set of building
blocks that together provide a 360° viewof the available coverage.

Measurement purposes
UserService

conventional context■ Evaluate a system/service from a user‘s ordevice‘s point of view

QoS/QoE■ Evaluate the businessvalue of a service

IoT context

UserMachine

ServiceLoad measurement■ Provide information about
the capacity of a network■ Evaluate the change ofindividual device QoE under increasing total load

IoT
Stationary and mobile use cases in an
Internet of Things (IoT) context require
quality testing both before and after
installation, and diagnostic data in thecase of failure.
For typical use cases like Smart Metering,
Predictive Maintenance, Parking
Locators, decent coverage is vital forthe fulfillment of the service, especiallyin deep-inhouse or other locations withhigh RF attenuation.
Focus Infocom provides all the tools
necessary for these use cases, from datacollection to post processing.

Metrics
High-performance mobile communication technologies enable new typesof services that can be used in both B2C
and B2B, such as VR, AR and Mixed Reality
applications. For such applications, theright set of QoS KPIs as a measure of
their business value can be critical to
the success of such services and theiruse in corresponding business models.
The novel metric we developed in thissector, is now a ITU-T Recommendation(G.1034). This expertise can be put towork for you, too.

Measurement types and systems
Permanentmeasurements
require robust solutions that collectdata unattend year in year out. They
thus generate high information density
and statistical validity. Our ACT family ofautonomous measurement systems isideal for this type of measurement andavailable in different shapes and sizes.

Crowdsourcing Smartphone

Campaigns For campaigns wecontrol for apps. While SAM performs
the same actions as users on their smartphones, these actions are measured toprovide a real end-to-end customer perspective. KPIs can be defined per use caseand as required. SAM can be implemented
in almost all of our measurement systems.

offer two types of systems: XGMASP are multi-channel measurement
systems made for benchmarking, forexample to compare different networks
or multi-user scenarios.
ACT systems, on the other hand, arecompletely autonomous. They reduce
the necessary personnel input and help
to keep the total cost low.

only based measurement systems like
our ACT LSP are ideal for crowdsourcing scenarios. For these use cases it isimportant that measurements can be
performed directly on non-modified
user devices.

SAM is sort of an electronic remoteLeveraging data
Post processing converts raw data
into meaningful data. Various types ofreports present this data in an easy tounderstand and versatile way.
Reports are mainly based on direct
measurement data, but can also include
diagnostic and status data from secondary sources such as on-board repeaters
in trains, Wi-Fi routers and othersystems.
Internationally standardized KPIs
provide information about the key
characteristics of the system or network
under test.
In addition to “static” report documents
and presentations, we offer dynamic
reports based on Tableau™ that allow
users to interactively filter data, visualize
it geographically, zoom into maps withthe required resolution, and navigate
the information as needed.

Post processing
Processing large amounts of data
Focus Infocom’s post processing suite
FIMAS was designed from the groundup with maximum performance andease of use in mind.
It is the ideal solution for data intensive
benchmark measurements and theperfect tool for diagnosis, optimization
and reporting. It also supports machinelearning approaches.

Geo Views for all KPIs give you a detailed, locallyresolved overview about each KPI.
