NETSCOUT debuts RAN Analytics for Carrier Aggregation

NETSCOUT introduced a RAN Analytics for Carrier Aggregation solution to help mobile operators achieve superior performance and a better subscriber experience with high-speed LTE and 5G deployments.

RAN Analytics for Carrier Aggregation is vendor agnostic, 3GPP compliant, and uses NETSCOUT’s Smart Data, making it scalable and suitable for networks of any size and at any stage in the 5G lifecycle. Additionally, the data is available for export to Open RAN automation systems, data lakes, and other third parties.

“Carrier aggregation analytics offer the key to automatically determine the root cause of carrier aggregation performance which unlocks the full potential of high-speed LTE and 5G services since single call analysis is no longer viable or cost-effective,” said Paolo Trevisan, AVP of product management at NETSCOUT. “With our solution, mobile operators can address multiple critical questions about the viability and performance of their carrier aggregation approach, including usage, performance, efficacy, and quality.
