IFPM is able to accurately reproduce the exact same sequence of actions and responses that your radio users, dispatchers or external applications might follow while all the time logging what is happening in intricate details.
Whether you wish to measure the network GoS/Qos by drive-testing an area or simulate a particular operational scenario to see what happens, or perhaps to test how your system would cope with a sudden increase in traffic or loss of a vital service, IFPM can help.
IFPM incorporates an easy-to-use, fully configurable scripting process, giving you complete flexiblity and control to create simple or complex test scenarios to exercise any service supported by the connected TETRA network. All commands, responses, events, voice samples and data messages are accurately captured, time stamped and logged. IFPM provides a detailed record of everything that has happened as well as helping to identify things that should have happened but did not. IFPM gives the information needed to investigate, repair and improve your system. Click here to see how Airwave Solutions are using IFPM.
With IFPM connected, the true end-to-end performance and characteristics of your network and Terminal Equipment is recorded and revealed in intricate detail.
The IFPM tool can assist with all of the following roles:
Network Operators |
Service Providers |
System Integrators |
Equipment Developers |
End-User Organisations |
IFPM can be used for a broad range of applications including:
- Detailed investigation of faults and anomalies
- Testing & certifying correct operation and performance of terminal equipment such as radios, dispatchers and Mobile Data Terminals (MDTs)
- Trialling new applications prior to deployment on live network
- Load testing a network, base-station or site
- Verifying Service Level Agreements (SLAs) e.g. coverage, capacity and GoS/QoS
