The country's top telcos, Globe Telecom and Smart Communications, recently passed NTC's Quality of Service (Qos) Benchmarking Tests for the second quarter of this year. According to NTC's results, Globe improved to 1.46% from 2.6% (lower is better) while Smart fell back a bit at 1.26% from 0.87%. "The network performance measurement equipment of Globe generates network quality KPIs and more extensive drive tests done by Globe, including the NTC drive test routes, showed a major difference from the latest NTC test results. This may indicate a need to jointly review the latest NTC results in the interest of transparency," said Cris Crisostomo, Globe Head of Service Quality, Network Technical Group. NTC also tested for dropped call rates, Average Receive Signal Level, Average Signal Quality, and Call Set Up Time which Globe and Smart also passed. In collaboration with the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC), the Cybercrime Investigation and Coordinating Center (CICC), and the Philippine National Police’s Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIDG), Globe has donated IMSI catcher detectors to help authorities identify and track unauthorized mobile network activity.
