SQI(SPEECH QUALITY INDEX)

SQI reflect the quality of the speech, it estimate the speech quality in the cellular network as perceived by human listener .

SQI more sophisticated than RX QUALITY. Rx Quality and its limitation.

RX quality is obtained by transforming the bit error rate (BER) into a scale from 0 to

Receiving quality level BER < 0.2% 0.2 ~ 0.4% 0.4 ~ 0.8% 0.8 ~ 1.6% 1.6 ~ 3.2% 3.2 ~ 6.4% 6.4 ~ 12.8%

RX Quality And SQI

Distribution of BER over time: For a given BER, if the BER fluctuates very much, the perceived quality is lower than if the BER remains rather

constant most of the time.


a high BER variance gives a better RxQual than a low variance does. This is completely misleading from a speech quality point of view.) .

Frame erasures. When entire speech frames are lost, this affects the perceived quality in a very negative way.

Handovers. Handovers always cause some frames to be lost, which generally gives rise to audible disturbances. This does not show at all in

RxQual, however, since during handovers BER measurements are


suppressed.

The choice of speech codec: quality is different for different speech codec .

Confidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading without Permission.

Security Level: Internal

Design of SQI
SQI prediction of speech quality is independent of channel

condition and other circumstances. the computation of SQI


involves.

The bit error rate (BER). The frame erasure rate (FER). Data on handover events. Different algorithm for different codec. stolen frames (i.e. speech frames that have been replaced by signaling ). Statistic on the distribution of each of these parameter.

Confidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading without Permission.

SQI VS RX QUALITY
For a given RxQual, the actual quality indicated by SQI will vary depending on the channel conditions and the speech codec used. Conversely, for a given actual quality level, a wide range of

RxQual values are possible.

SQI as a function of RxQual for the EFR codec .

Confidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading without Permission. Security Level: Internal

SQI
SQI is available for GSM FR (full rate), GSM EFR (enhanced full

rate), GSM HR (half rate), AMR (adaptive multi rate), AMT FR,
AMR HR.

TEMS products, the SQI shows the quality on the downlink channel. TEMS is updating the SQI every 480 millisecond (i.e once every SACCH multi frame ). Frequency hopping will improve the radio conditions, thus decreasing the bit error rate and the frame erasure rate. This is built into the SQI algorithm.

CHANNEL VERIFICATION
The GSM Channel Verification tool allows you to check the

availability of a set of GSM traffic channels, typically those used in


one cell or a set of cells. TEMS Investigation lets one or several Sony Ericsson GSM phones make calls repeatedly on the chosen channels until all timeslots of interest have been tested.

To perform GSM channel verification, open the GSM Channel Verification window from the Control menu or the Control folder in the Navigator.

We can add multiple test cases

Manual and Automatic Verification

Automatic verification: For each timeslot, TEMS Investigation decides whether the timeslot can be accepted or not. In order for a timeslot to pass, the call must be set up correctly and maintained for a user-specified period of time, and in addition a set of userspecified quality requirements must be satisfied.

Manual verification: For each timeslot, user

decide himself

whether to accept or reject the result of the test, by clicking either of two buttons. How to take this decision is up to the user. By making call and deciding him slef.
