Method and system for generating a mobile device network footprint index

Abstract

The present relates to a method and a system for generating a mobile device network footprint index. The method and system receives, at an analytic system, information related to a network footprint of mobile devices. This information consists in records representative of mobile IP sessions occurring on a mobile IP network. Then, the method and system aggregates, by means of the analytic system, the information by models of mobile devices; and processes, by means of the analytic system, the aggregated information to calculate at least one metric representative of a network footprint of a selected model of mobile device over a selected period of time. A mobile device network footprint index is generated, by means of the analytic system, by calculating the at least one metric for several selected models of mobile devices over the selected period of time.
