Congestion Management
Broadband subscribers are demanding a high Quality of Experience (QoE) from their broadband networks. Can yours deliver?
Consumers rely on fixed and mobile broadband networks. Quality problems on those networks result in dissatisfaction, customer support calls, and subscriber churn. An intelligent network can ensure that high-value applications and real-time traffic meets the subscriber’s quality expectations without requiring unlimited bandwidth.
Procera’s PacketLogic Network Quality Assurance software enables broadband network operators to choose the right congestion management solution to meet the changing needs of their network and of their subscribers.
Procera’s unique visibility of subscriber, application, content, device, location, and quality of experience (QoE) enable congestion management solutions that deliver on each subscriber’s QoE expectations.

Advanced Traffic Steering
Advanced Traffic Steering is Procera’s solution for subscriber, application, and content-aware service creation. ATS enables an operator to surgically redirect traffic to value-added service offerings that can benefit from a reduction in the amount of bandwidth and traffic that must be sent through their systems.
Optimization, caching, niche analytics, or protocol-specific services are good examples of opportunities for an operator to dramatically reduce their capital expenditures as well as operational complexity with PacketLogic solutions.
Policy & Charging
Service Velocity is a key goal for mobile network operators in today’s highly competitive market landscape. To meet that need, many are adopting 3GPP standards that enable best-of-breed, multi-vendor solutions for creating and provisioning new, targeted service packages, with flexible charging.
Procera’s PacketLogic solutions support these advantages, integrating tightly into the 3GPP PCC architecture by functioning as a policy enforcement point. Our solutions utilize Gx, Gy, and CDR interfaces to interact with 3GPP PCC components, including the Policy and Charging Rules Function (PCRF), Online Charging System (OCS) and Offline Charging System (OFCS) to enable innovative services that leverage Procera’s unique visibility of subscriber, application, content, device, location, and quality of experience (QoE).
PacketLogic solutions enable a variety of use cases that provide significant benefits to mobile broadband operators, including:
-
Service Innovation – Differentiated services based on Procera’s granular subscriber awareness and enforcement capabilities.
-
Subscriber Usage Management– Subscriber consumption plans based on usage, time, location, devices, and other attributes.
-
Intelligent Charging– Targeted services based on content, applications, location, or any of Procera’s thousands of application and content attributes.
-
Network Quality Assurance – Ensuring that network quality is maintained through the use of Service Tiering or fair usage using Procera’s advanced RAN and location awareness.
-
Advanced Traffic Steering – Trigger Advanced Traffic Steering when services or congestion can be managed using value-added services.
Perspectives provide different views of the network that focus on specific intelligence metrics – Subscriber, Radio Access Network, Video, and many more. The concept of Perspectives in Analytics and Enforcement delivers a more complete picture of the network and enables the operator to deliver the best subscriber experience possible.
Scorecard Perspectives

RAN Perspectives
RAN Perspective is a revolutionary software service that gives network operators real-time signaling updates from any SIM-enabled mobile device. Rather than deploy costly probes throughout the network, RAN Perspective accesses information directly from the device— regardless of device type, operating system, or RAN access type (2G/3G/4G). The 3GPP signaling information (Signal Strength, Error Codes, Available Networks, etc.) is collected on the device and streamed in real-time for usage by the network for analytics and enforcement.

Video Perspectives
Video traffic is the biggest contributor to network traffic, consuming as much as 60% of total network traffic in fixed and mobile networks around the world. Network operators are struggling to cope with the flood of video traffic and need better video intelligence and analytics in order to determine if they are delivering a high quality of experience to their subscribers. Over the Top video services like YouTube, Amazon Prime, Netflix, Hulu, and many others worldwide are driving consumers to purchase higher speed broadband connections. Operators are also offering their own managed video services, either as a compliment to their existing broadband offerings, or to compete with existing video providers leveraging their high speed connection to consumers.

Subscriber Perspectives
The Subscriber Management solutions enable PacketLogic to gain visibility into a wide variety of subscribe attributes that enable an operator to deliver a better Quality of Experience for that user. Attributes like device, location, and service plan can be used for calculating the real-time experience
ContentLogic
Procera’s ContentLogic software enables clearly defined categorization of Internet traffic, enabling sophisticated policy enforcement based on specific content types or even specific URLs.
ContentLogic provides the content intelligence needed to meet regulatory requirements, minimize the risk posed by malware, phishing or abuse—or to create next-generation subscriber services. Using Procera’s Datastream Recognition Definition Language (DRDL TM), ContentLogic identifies Internet traffic according to well-defined categories and user-defined lists to match any requirement. This enables the full range of Procera policy actions to be applied to specific traffic flows in real time. Whether replacing an existing content management solution or deploying a new revenue service, ContentLogic fits the bill.

Fixed and mobile broadband consumers judge their experience by how a broadband network deliver’s their individual high value content, and a network operator that lacks insight into these trends will be at a severe competitive disadvantage.
The Internet Intelligence Center enables a network operator to instantly know, respond, and flourish in the rapidly changing Internet landscape. It is made possible by the unique granularity delivered by PacketLogic solutions, which provide visibility into subscriber, application, content, device, location, and quality of experience (QoE).
Executive Insights
Executive Insights is a powerful tool for Executive Management as it simplifies the visualization of network quality in the form of an operator ScoreCard. It enables the executives to easily see the performance and quality that their network is capable of delivering, broken down by subscriber, location, service plans and devices. The Operator’s ScoreCard measures the quality and performance of each subscriber’s network connection using the Score Perspective to measure all network traffic.
