Acceptance and optimization

With a well-designed 5G network ready to launch, it is imperative to minimize risk, OpEx and CapEx, while maximizing the user experience.

• Amdocs Network Acceptance service: With densification required for 5G where there would be a HetNet of macros, mini-macros, small cells, DAS and Wi-FI system amongst others, readiness around turning up sites require faster rollout and acceptance. Amdocs network acceptance services provides that capability by leveraging automated reports that enables service providers to turn on new sites faster by validating their health by go-no-go reports to see if there are any KPIs that would be gating their launch.
  
  Based on the gating KPIs, the service provider can further troubleshoot to ensure that the KPIs are being met. This provides a way of governing the way sites that are being accepted and also the vendors who are responsible for launching them.
• Amdocs Network Optimization service takes a holistic approach to optimizing heterogenous networks by utilizing customer geo-located data and network KPI metrics to extract the maximum from current network assets. As a result, it enables you to minimize operating and capital expenditure, improve network performance and provide an enhanced customer experience. The solution addresses challenges around the co-existence of 5G NR and LTE, along with the introduction of active antenna systems (which introduces beam forming and beam steering to significantly increase network capacity), while ensuring a seamless network experience. Amdocs Network Optimization’s capabilities include:
• Capacity optimization
• Capacity maximization
• Voice and data performance evaluation analysis and recommendations
• Coverage optimization between 5G NR and 4G
• Traffic management between 5G and 4G

• Mobility management
• Throughput improvement
• Carrier balance analysis
• Interference analysis
• Feature and parameter audit
• SINR (signal to noise and interference ratio optimization
• Massive MIMO optimization
• Beam fingerprinting and beam steering

Testing

Amdocs Network Testing Services provides a comprehensive portfolio of services for both physical and virtual network functions, including test scope and planning, equipment testing, interoperability testing, end-to-end testing, pilot testing and NFV testing. By combining core network expertise with proven results in managing large telecommunication projects, we can manage testing for new service introductions, network rollout and large-scale network transformation projects, helping you innovate without compromising service quality, timelines or performance.

End-to-End Workflow Management

Amdocs End-to-End Workflow Management provides comprehensive end-to-end project orchestration for planning, building and modernizing mobile and fixed networks. By uniquely combining automated technical design with dynamic project plan generation using reusable building blocks, the planning and project management process is completely automated, thereby maximizing rollout efficiency and streamlining. This result is workflow and project management that supports a variety of processes for a wide range of networks and technologies.
