IP Service Assurance Solutions for CDMA2000/CDMA2000 Operators
CDMA2000 3G technology has significantly advanced the mobile operator’s capability to offer mobile broadband, new IP-based services, multimedia services and to simplify operations. Fundamental to the CDMA network evolution is the paradigm shift of the underlying network from TDM to all-IP packet core which requires deep insight into IP subscriber, service and network data
