GL Communications Inc., announced today the release of enhanced TRAU Analysis and Emulation software that is used for emulation and analysis of traffic at A-bis (BTS to BSC Links) and A-ter interfaces (BSC to MSC Links) in the wireless network infrastructure.
Gaithersburg, MD (PRWEB) April 4, 2008 -- GL Communications Inc., announced today the release of enhanced TRAU Analysis and Emulation software that is used for emulation and analysis of traffic at A-bis (BTS to BSC Links) and A-ter interfaces (BSC to MSC Links) in the wireless network infrastructure. In a statement to the press, Mr. Karthik Ramalingam, senior manager of product development at GL Communications Inc. said, "TRAU (Transcoder/Rate Adapter Unit) frames are exchanged between the BTS and BSC and perform the function of compression/decompression of speech channels within the radio cellular network. TRAU frames carry speech, data, and O&M information at full rate or half (8/16 kbps) rate and control information, over T1/E1 in a GSM network". He added, "GL's T1/E1 Analyzers (Card or USB Based) can be equipped with software for: Real-Time TRAU Protocol Analyzer, Offline TRAU Protocol Analyzer, TRAU Toolbox™,TRAU Traffic Playback, Scripted (Automated) TRAU Engine, Scripted (Automated) TRAU Tx/Rx Test".
Mr. Ramalingam , further added, "Especially the addition of new applications that of Scripted (Automated) Trau Engine and Scripted Automated Trau Tx/Rx Test with their automated capabilities significantly enhanced the value and utility of the product to the user community".
Brief description of the applications that can be equipped with the software is provided below.
Real-Time Trau Protocol Analyzer decodes the frame captured in real time and provides summary of decoded information, detailed decoded content and also hex dump of the frame. Voice can also be decoded, viewed, and heard in real-time.
Using Offline TRAU Protocol Analyzer, offline analysis of the frames captured in real time can be performed, that provides information such as summary of decoded frames, detailed decoded content, and also hex dump of the frame. No hardware is required for the offline analyzer.
The TRAU Toolbox™ is an ideal tool to test network elements at A-bis and A-ter interfaces. It can be used to create, monitor, and terminate multiple TRAU sessions.
The TRAU Traffic Playback application is used to generate TRAU Traffic on T1/E1. It provides the ability to playback the recorded Trau file(s) on selected subchannel(s) of T1/ E1 lines.
Automated TRAU engine is Trau Traffic Capture/Playback support in Client/Server mode and is used to transmit captured trace files in an automated fashion.
The scripted TRAU Tx/Rx Test module is an optional application that allows testing of TRAU frames.
The TRAU Packet Data Analysis application is a part of the Real-Time TRAU Protocol Analyzer and when invoked it displays call information in tabular and graphical formats (PDA - Summary View) as well as detailed frame-by-frame information (PDA - Detail View).
About GL Communications Inc.,
Founded in 1986, GL Communications Inc. is a leading supplier of test, monitoring, and analysis equipment for TDM, Wireless, and VoIP networks. Unlike conventional test equipment, GL's test platforms provide visualization, capture, storage, and convenient features like portability, remotability, and scripting.
GL's TDM Analysis & Emulation line of products includes T1, E1, T3, OC-3, STM-1, analog four-wire, and analog two-wire interface cards and solutions. Capabilities include voiceband traffic analysis and emulation across all traffic types (voice, digits, tones, fax, modem), all protocols (HDLC, ISDN, SS7, CAS, GSM, GPRS, CDMA), and with capacities up to thousands of channels.
GL's VoIP products generate / analyze thousands of calls simultaneously with traffic types such as voice files, digits, tones, noise, and fax using G.711, G.729, AMR, EVRC, and GSM codecs. Additional features include visual analysis, real-time listening, recording, and voice quality assessment using ITU algorithms PAMS, PSQM, and PESQ.
GL's Wireless and Voice Quality testing products perform protocol analysis and voice quality assessment on GSM, CDMA, UMTS, and CDMA 2000 networks. Connections can be made to any wireless phone with automated call control, GPS, mapping software, and real-time signal measurements.
GL's Echo Canceller testing solutions provide the broadest range of simulation and analysis, including compliance testing per G.168 and G.160.
GL's Network Surveillance and Monitoring products include Probes for TDM, VoIP, ATM, and Wireless networks. An open standards based approach provides a scalable, feature rich, real-time access to network intelligence. Centralized or distributed access, efficient transport and database loading allow compatibility with 3rd party and standards based monitoring systems.
