Impact of Call Setup Time on UPT Performance Based on AIN Platform

This paper analyzes the impact of Call Setup Time on UPT performance based on the AIN platform. Call Setup Time is used as the performance parameter. In implementing UPT based on the AIN platform, the geographical location of VLR affects network performance. In order to find an optimum location of VLR among three different types of structures, i.e. VLR is located close to Service Switching Point and Cell Site Controller and located at Service Control Point, each Call Setup Time on proposed time delay model is calculated and compared. Network performance is analyzed by changing the number of STP in No.7 signaling network in UPT and the utilization ratio, , for SSP, STP and SCP.
