Celinus KIYEA

Abstract: This paper is focused on the Performance Analysis of the QoS of some selected GSM (Globacom and Zain) and CDMA (Starcomms and Visafone) networks in Zaria. Data for the purpose was collected for both intra and inter calls from some randomly selected areas in Zaria, where a total of eight thousand nine hundred and sixty (14 days x 10 different areas x 4 times x 16 call combinations) calls were made. Tables, line graphs and bar charts were used for analysis at different instances. The paper revealed that GSMs operators performance in Zaria is better than the CDMAs and at the same time Globacoms performance is better than Zains while Starcomms is better than Visafone. The conclusion was drawn and recommendations made. All the works of other authors were fully referenced.
