SmartBenchmarker

Easy-to-use web interface

All relevant information at your fingertips – system overview and real-time results

SmartBenchmarker software helps with the configuration, execution and monitoring of benchmarking test campaigns.
The GUI has a detailed system overview and real-time test results from the connected probes and scanners.

Advanced alarm and control functions

Advanced SmartBenchmarker alarm and notification functions save users' time. They can customize the collection and processing of events and notifications so that tests are only actively monitored when prompted.
The configurable smart alarm can notify test supervisors via email or text messaging.

Unified data collection

SmartBenchmarker performs tests directly on smartphones using the software native to the device.
The test results reflect true end-user behavior since SmartBenchmarker probes are based on commercially available device firmware and standard Android apps. 
SmartBenchmarker also supports and integrates high-end hardware modules such as VRBs and TCMs. Combined, they are the leading solution for end-to-end assessment.

Drive and walk test campaigns

Same data collection equipment used for drive and walk tests

SmartBenchmarker building blocks include measuring devices, smartphones and R&S®TSMx scanners.
Smartphones can be seamlessly ported and used as standalone QualiPoc solutions. Combined with an RF scanner and a minimal license fee upgrade, smartphones can also be used in portable systems, such as Freerider.
Such modularity and flexibility reduces capital expenditures, while also minimizing the number of testing devices needed.

Hardware option: R&S®Benchmarker 3

R&S®Benchmarker 3 - raising benchmarking to the next level

Extensive in-house benchmarking experience went into the design and implementation of the R&S®Benchmarker 3.
The R&S®Benchmarker 3 has a compact, easy-to-handle and future-proof concept. It sets new standards for benchmarking data collection. 

Hardware option: TCM and VRB

Future-proof concept using built-in RF antennas

The test device containment module (TCM) sets optimal conditions for uninterrupted data collection in a stable environment. It ensures maximum data quality for large-scale benchmarking campaigns with the following key product benefits:
- Use of unmodified test devices (smartphones) and their integrated RF antennas.
- Stable thermal environment and uniform conditions for all test devices for comparable results.

Hardware option: Benchmarker II
 

The reference benchmarker

Benchmarker II is a full fledged solution for large-scale drive-test based quality of experience benchmarking campaigns. Mobile operators and testing service providers can assess and compare service quality (QoS and QoE) based on the most comprehensive set of key performance indicators (KPI) and accurate test scenarios.
 

Hardware option: phone mounting wall (PMW)

The lightweight phone mounting wall (PMW) is a robust mount for 4 smartphones in drive test cars for benchmarking campaigns.
A USB hub delivers power for safe and reliable smartphone operations.
The mount can easily be installed in cars for both side-by-side and vertical cascading.

Hardware option: Freerider 4

State-of-the-art portable solution for walk test benchmarking

Freerider 4 is a portable, very flexible solution that can host up to 12 smartphones and multiple scanners. This flexible capacity covers all needed setups for benchmarking and optimization.
Up to four hot-swappable batteries can power the system and test equipment for up to eight hours (depending on the setup). 
The comfortable and discreet backpack protects valuable test equipment from heat and rain and hides it from public eyes.
