umlaut tested and measured the performance of its voice

and data services on smartphones in comparison to other

LTE/UMTS/GSM mobile radio networks in metropolitan

and rural areas of Ireland.

The audit was done as a performance benchmark performed

by umlaut between 07.02.2020 – 21.02.2020 in cities and

towns as well as on connection roads.

Dedicated measurements have been executed as drive

tests outdoors using a Samsung Galaxy S9 cat16 Smart-

phone 1000 Mbit/s Download / 105 Mbit/s Upload.

All data measurements have been performed in 4G

preferred mode. Voice measurements have been done in

4G/4G preferred mode on both sides, while call origin has

been alternated.

In addition crowdsourced performance data has been

collected and evaluated between CW35 2019 and CW06

2020.

Claims Methodology

The leader in mobile benchmarking, umlaut, has analy-

zed the mobile networks of Ireland with regards to mobile

network performance. We measure smartphone voice and

data performance based on extensive drivetests – from

major metropolitan areas to smaller cities and connection

roads.

We objectively define the routes and test methodology

and publish the results through certificates or public

benchmark reports.

As the de-facto industry standard, our benchmarking

methodology focuses on customer-perceived network

quality and covers a wide range of mobile services.

Today, more than 200 mobile networks in more than

120 countries are being evaluated by our unique scoring

methodology. It allows a technical analysis that is unpre-

cedented in its level of detail and enables comparisons

between the network performance and capability of each

mobile network. Our public benchmarks as well as the

certificate benchmarks help network operators to demon-

strate how well they are delivering wireless connections to

consumers, business users and enterprises and reveals the

areas of improvement.
