Designing novel algorithms for capturing and analyzing user experience in 4G networks

Fourth Generation networks (4G), mainly Long Term Evolution (LTE) technologies are going to be deployed in large scale starting from 2011. To leverage the benefits of this huge market opportunity, service and content providers need to deliver data capacity and Quality of Service (QoS) similar to existing w ire line solutions. But, assuring good QoS over w ireless links to the 4G mobile users would be an extremely challenging task. From this perspective, tools and solutions to service-level assurance for 4G networks w ill be in great demand. Hence, developing a software based framework for service quality assurance of 4G services is very important, because of the still evolving LTE standards and services. Having a software based framework, which the proposed project focuses on, w ill give complete flexibility for upgrade of the solution, as the standard and mobile services evolve.
