RantCell application is a true network benchmark tool to measure the key performance indicators (KPI) such as Data speed,Voice calls,SMS test,Ping(latency),Dropped calls of 2G(GSM,GPRS,EDGE),3G(UMTS,HSDPA,HSPA,HSPA+),4G(LTE) ,WiFi and CDMA mobile network by performing repetitive speed test,sms test,HTTP download test,ping(latency) and voice calls.
MCC, MNC, PSC, Cell ID, RSSI/RSCP, Data type(UMTS, HSPA, HSPA+ or Wi-Fi) are logged by RantCell App while tests are in progress and can be exported once the test campaigns are completed.
Some of the parameters are specific to network type such as 2G,3G,4G, Wi-Fi or CDMA and also in some cases your device does not support.
All Test campaign results are stored on the device. These results can be shared once the test campaign is completed via email in excel format(In App purchasing is needed to share the results).
Yes can be used as drive test tool.Please visit www.rantcell.com for more information
RantCell is not a replacement for high end RF analysers. However it is a substitute tool that could be used to troubleshoot most of the 1st level RF related issues in the network and also to benchmark the broadband speeds.
RantCell is designed to work on Android OS v2.3 onwards, however due to many flavours of Android versions and OEMs, we have listed the supported devices. These devices have been thoroughly tested. Please refer to the list of RantCell supported devices. Please contact support@rantcell.com.
We have lined up many features in coming releases which are beneficial to our customers. We are more than happy to accommodate any customisation options based on customer requirement. But this needs to be reviewed for technical feasibility before accepting and comes at additional cost.
Lets assume if a user performs 10 iterations of Ping and Speed test on pro app and it took 10 minutes to complete the testing on RantCell Pro app, then 10mins shall be deducted from your monthly allowance minutes. We do this model of charging as data uploaded shall be using our cloud server resources and protect ourselves from excessive usage. Also please note that the testing minutes will be deducted from account only when test shows “Completed/Uploaded” status on RantCell Pro app.If you have more than one Android phone registered and if tests are run in parallel in two Android phones, the minutes deduction is based on individual tests on each of Android phones. If there are queries please email to support@rantcell.com
RantCell Video Stream testing feature is designed to measure video watching experience on smart mobile device connected over 2G/3G/4G/Wi-Fi networks by calculating video QoE parameters such as Launch Time, Load Time, Stalled Time and Total Video Play Time
Which of the parameters measured during stream test?
1. What is launch time and how it is calculated?
The time taken by the player to launch web view with main frame
Calculation : Launch time = Total time taken between Initializing to initialized time
2. What is Load Time and how it is calculated?
The time taken for the player to load the video resources into web view
Calculation : Load time = Total time taken between loading to loaded time
3. What is stalled time and how it is calculated?
Stalled time is total time on which user experienced video stalling while video playing
Calculation : Stalled time: Sum of the total time for which video stalled between video starts playing to video end
4. What is stalled count and how it is calculated?
Stalled count is the number of times user experienced video stalling while playing
Calculation : Stalled count: Sum of the total video stalled count between video starts playing to video end
5. What is Elapsed time and how it is calculated?
Actual elapsed time is the amount of time taken to play the video from start to end
Calculation : Total elapsed time: Sum of initial buffer time, launch time, stalled time and actual video length
6. How is video performance rating calculated and categories of it?
By using below algorithm, RantCell rates the video performance into three categories. Video performance rating = (Load Time+ launch time+ stalled time) * 100 /Actual video length
Video Performance Rating Category
7. How to analyse video performance rating is Good, Fair or Poor?
Based on the below calculation: (Video performance rating = (Load Time+ launch time+ stalled time) * 100 /Actual video length)
If the video performance rating calculation is between 0-5% - Video performance rated as Good
If the video performance rating calculation is between 5-10% - Video performance rated as Fair
If the video performance rating calculation is above 10% - Video performance rated as Poor
