Abstract
Apparatus and methods for generating performance statistics and providing for the display of the performance statistics on the wireless device. The statistics can be generated at the wireless device or remotely, at a network device. Once the statistics are determined, they can be presented on the wireless device and can be accessible to either the user of the device and any other predetermined party. By providing for performance statistics at the wireless device, the user of the device or any other predetermined party, such as a service provider, can readily determine if a performance problem is related to the device or to the network.
Claims62
A method for remotely providing performance statistics to a wireless communication device, the method comprising the steps of:
- receiving performance-related data from a wireless communication device;
- determining one or more performance quality characteristics associated with the performance-related data;
- determining one or more performance statistics associated with the one or more performance quality characteristics;
- and
- communicating the one or more performance statistics to the wireless device.
A computer-readable medium for providing performance statistics on a wireless communication device, comprising at least one sequence of instructions, wherein execution of the instructions by a processor causes the processor to perform the steps of:
- receiving performance-related data from a wireless communication device;
- determining one or more performance quality characteristics associated with the performance-related data;
- determining one or more performance statistics associated with the one or more performance quality characteristics;
- and
- communicating the one or more performance statistics to the wireless device.
At least one processor device, implemented in a network device, configured to perform the operations of:
- receiving performance-related data from a wireless communication device;
- determining one or more performance quality characteristics associated with the performance-related data;
