Abstract: A system and method is provided for calculating session initiation protocol (SIP) key performance indicators (KPIs) for multimedia communication in a network accessing network packets monitored over time. The method includes accessing network packets monitored over time, detecting a SIP response message of the monitored network packets, and accounting for the detected SIP response message in a time window of a series of consecutive time windows that includes the SIP response message's associated observed time. The SIP response message has an associated observed time at which the monitored SIP message was observed during monitoring. The method further includes pairing a SIP request message expected to be paired with the detected SIP response message with the detected SIP response message and accounting for the paired SIP request message in the time window with which the detected SIP response message is accounted.

Abstract: A plurality of data packets is received from a wireless communication system. At least one of SIP signaling messages and S1-AP signaling messages associated with calls being made or attempted in the wireless communication system are analyzed for a specified time period to identify one or more dropped calls. At least one of SIP signaling error codes and S1-AP signaling cause codes associated with the identified dropped calls are analyzed to identify one or more call drop reasons. An ASI data set is generated based on the analysis of the at least one of the SIP signaling messages and the S1-AP signaling messages and based on the analysis of the at least one of the SIP signaling error codes and the S1-AP signaling cause codes.
