What is FTP?
FTP is an acronym for File Transfer Protocol. As the name suggests, FTP
is used to transfer files between computers on a network. You can use
FTP to exchange files between computer accounts, transfer files between
an account and a desktop computer, or access online software archives.

Uses of XCAL
Perform drive test for service verification and gauge success of
network upgrades
Benchmark network performance
QoS measurements (Voice, Video MOS)
End-to-end application testing (MMS, SMS, video etc.)
Minimise OPEX through automating many labour-intensive
work-flows
Intelligently manage massive volumes of drive test data, maps and
performance countersv
Conduct indoor and outdoor network performance analyses
Capture missing neighbor list
Multiple data sessions are possible on each test terminal
specifically to troubleshoot, maintain and optimize wireless voice and data network
performance. XCAL delivers a highly intuitive and flexible platform to monitor network
performance, assess QoS/QoE and ensure seamless service integration with existing GSM,
WCDMA, HSPA, EVDO and WiMAX systems. The solution will be evolved to support LTE.
XCAL supports all major wireless standards and technologies and is available in many
licensable variations:
- GSM, GPRS, EDGE
- WCDMA HSPA
- CDMA 2000 1x
- EVDO Rev.0, Rev.A
- TD-SCDMA
- DVB-H
- Mobile WiMAX
- LTE
Versions of XCAL
3.3.07
3.3.1.47
3.3.1.69
3.3.1.89 and so forth
Further, it is continually evolved and updated to support the latest technology upgrades
and client-feedback.
XCAL is being developed by ACCUVER and they continue to develop custom versions and
patches to suit field requirements all the time based on requests.
The high speed SeeGull EX for WCDMA/HSDPA (2100, 900, 1900, 850, AWS) MHz
and GSM (1800, 900, 1900, 850) MHz networks is part of the new generation of
PCTEL scanning receivers. The lightweight and compact SeeGull EX achieves
significantly faster scanning speeds and greater dynamic range while providing
simultaneous GSM and WCDMA/HSDPA measurements and Layer 3 decoding for
both technologies.
of the new generation of PCTEL scanning receivers. This lightweight and compact EX
achieves very fast scanning speeds (20ms) for measuring the top Beacon and DWPTS
signals and a wide dynamic range while providing all of the measurements necessary for
optimizing a TD-SCDMA network.
Fundamentals of Networking
What is a Network Protocol?
A protocol is a set of rules that governs the communications between
computers on a network. These rules include guidelines that regulate
the following characteristics of a network: access method, allowed
physical topologies, types of cabling, and speed of data transfer.

protocol suite (the set of network protocols used for the Internet). With UDP,
computer applications can send messages, in this case referred to as datagrams,
to other hosts on an Internet Protocol (IP) network without prior
communications to set up special transmission channels or data paths. The
protocol was designed by David P. Reed in 1980 and formally defined in RFC
768.
UDP uses a simple transmission model with a minimum of protocol

CDMA Technology
Short for Code-Division Multiple Access, a digital cellular technology that uses
German attempts at jamming transmissions. The allies decided to transmit over several
frequencies, instead of one, making it difficult for the Germans to pick up the complete
signal. Because Qualcomm created communications chips for CDMA technology, it was
privy to the classified information. Once the information became public, Qualcomm
claimed patents on the technology and became the first to commercialize it.
GSM Technology
If you are in Europe, Asia or Japan and using a mobile phone then most probably you must be using GSM
GSM stands for Global System for Mobile Communication and is an open, digital cellular technology used for
transmitting mobile voice and data services.
The GSM emerged from the idea of cell-based mobile radio systems at Bell Laboratories in the early 1970s.
The GSM is the name of a standardization group established in 1982 to create a common European mobile
telephone standard.
The GSM standard is the most widely accepted standard and is implemented globally.
The GSM is a circuit-switched system that divides each 200kHz channel into eight 25kHz time-slots. GSM
operates in the 900MHz and 1.8GHz bands in Europe and the 1.9GHz and 850MHz bands in the US.
The GSM is owning a market share of more than 70 percent of the world's digital cellular subscribers.
The GSM makes use of narrowband Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) technique for transmitting signals.
The GSM was developed using digital technology. It has an ability to carry 64 kbps to 120 Mbps of data rates.
Presently GSM support more than one billion mobile subscribers in more than 210 countries throughout of the
world.
The GSM provides basic to advanced voice and data services including Roaming service. Roaming is the ability
to use your GSM phone number in another GSM network.
A GSM digitizes and compresses data, then sends it down through a channel with two other streams of user
data, each in its own time slot. It operates at either the 900 MHz or 1,800 MHz frequency band.
