System and Method for Determining Mobile Telephone Voice Quality in a Live Network
First Claim
1. A method of determining the quality of voice communications provided by a plurality of mobile telephones, comprising:
- storing in a memory one or more telephone voice signals communicated by each of the plurality of mobile telephones;
storing in a memory one or more reference device voice signals communicated concurrently with the telephone voice signals by a device substantially co-located with each mobile telephone that communicated the one or more telephone voice signals;
determining a voice quality data of the one or more telephone voice signals communicated by each mobile telephone;
determining a voice quality data of the one or more reference device voice signals communicated concurrently with the one or more telephone voice signals communicated by each mobile telephone; and
normalizing the voice quality data of the one or more telephone voice signals communicated by each mobile telephone based on the voice quality data of the one or more reference device voice signals communicated concurrently with the one or more telephone voice signals.

Abstract
A system and method for determining the quality of communications provided by a plurality of mobile telephones is provided. The method may comprise, for example, receiving one or more telephone voice signals from each mobile telephone; storing the one or more telephone voice signals in a memory; concurrently with aid receiving telephone voice signals from a mobile telephone, receiving one or more reference device voice signals from a reference device substantially co-located with the mobile telephone; storing the one or more reference device voice signals in a memory; determining voice quality data for the telephone voice signals; determining voice quality data for the reference device voice signals concurrently received with the telephone voice signals; and normalizing the voice quality data of the telephone voice signals from each mobile telephone based on the voice quality data of the reference device voice signals concurrently received with the telephone voice signals.

15. A method of determining the quality of communications provided by a mobile telephone in a mobile telephone network, comprising:
-
(a) receiving one or more telephone voice signals communicated by a mobile telephone; (b) concurrently with said receiving one or more telephone voice signals, receiving one or more reference device voice signals communicated by a reference device substantially co-located with the mobile telephone; (c) determining voice quality samples for the telephone voice signals; (d) determining voice quality samples for the reference device voice signals; (e) determining a first average comprising an average of the voice quality samples of the mobile telephone; (f)) determining a second average comprising an average of the voice quality samples of the reference device; (g) comparing the first average with the second average to provide a first normalized average; and performing processes a-g for a plurality of mobile telephones. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
