MPSM-a

Network Performance testing - right in your hand.

MPSM-a is a family of apps designed to run on unmodified "out of the box" Android devices. This product family was developed to cover a wide range of tasks, including passive coverage measurement, active QoS testing, massively-parallel load testing, and "groupsourcing", a progression from crowdsourcing where indiscriminate spread of an "one size must fit all" app is replaced by specialized functionality for defined user groups.

For instance: in the middle of the Corona pandemic, we ran a multi-country testing campaign in the context of the Financial Inclusion Global Initiative (FIGI; an initiative carried by ITU, World Bank and the Gates Foundation). A MPSM-a derivative, named DFS Observer, was used to test mobile network coverage and performance, with a purely over-the-air ready to use installation and fully automated data upload and processing.
