The Zero-Payload Architecture

How we achieve 97% classification accuracy without compromising subscriber privacy or requiring decryption keys.

1

Non-Inline Metadata Extraction

We intercept GTP-U outer headers before decapsulation, tracking TEIDs across handovers. We ingest zero payload, capturing only packet timing, flow symmetry, and structural metadata.

2

Proprietary Inference Engine

Our hardware-accelerated behavioural physics engine extracts over 30 unique metadata signatures at the network edge, classifying encrypted traffic with sub-10ms latency.

3

Carrier-Grade Outputs

Operators receive ETSI-compliant LI records, capacity insights, and QoE metrics. The core mathematical models remain protected IP, ensuring zero bytes of payload are ever accessed.

Continuously Adapting to a Changing Network

Modern mobile networks evolve constantly — application behaviour shifts, protocols update, and traffic patterns change in real time.

Self-Adaptive Intelligence

EdgeNqoba continuously adapts to evolving network conditions using advanced AI-driven behavioural modelling. Instead of relying on static signatures, the platform dynamically learns traffic behaviour patterns as they change.

Built for Living Networks

From OTT application updates to 5G slicing requirements and roaming variability, EdgeNqoba maintains high classification accuracy without manual reconfiguration or model retraining cycles.

Stability by Design

A controlled adaptation framework ensures that all behavioural updates are applied safely, maintaining carrier-grade stability, zero packet loss, and deterministic performance at all times.

Future-Proof Intelligence

As networks evolve toward 5G Advanced, AI-RAN, and satellite-terrestrial fusion, EdgeNqoba is designed to remain accurate, resilient, and operational without requiring constant redevelopment.

Independently Validated by CSIR

EdgeNqoba has completed formal technical validation by the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) – South Africa's national research and development organisation, proving carrier-grade performance in live environments.

Carrier-Grade Field Validation Framework

EdgeNqoba is actively structuring its field validation framework with leading global experts in QoS/QoE, ETSI, and ITU standardization, including Dr. Wolfgang Balzer (QoS Consulting).

Phase 1: Concept & KPI Framing

Developing comprehensive testing concepts, including traditional drive testing for seamless handover validation and high-load latency testing aligned with G.1051 standards.

Phase 2: Practical Validation

Executing structured test runs to empirically prove that edge-native processing significantly reduces core network load without degrading end-user latency.

Phase 3: Live Field Reporting

Comprehensive data processing and carrier-grade report generation, providing operators with the exact KPIs required for live network integration and commercial rollout.

Independent Testing Partnership

This methodology is being executed in partnership with Dr. Wolfgang Balzer - QoS Consulting, ensuring that our deployment KPIs align perfectly with how Tier-1 operators and global bodies (ETSI, ITU) evaluate and interpret next-generation edge intelligence systems. Our methodology is designed to showcase edge technology's ability to optimize network topology while maintaining strict, measurable QoE guarantees.

Unlocking Seven Strategic Market Verticals

EdgeNqoba's zero-payload behavioural intelligence extends far beyond traditional network observability. By operating at the GTP-U layer, we create standalone commercial products for operators, regulators, and enterprise markets—turning the encryption blindspot into a strategic business asset.

Mobile Fraud Detection

African operators lose billions annually to SIM swap, IRSF, and Wangiri fraud. EdgeNqoba’s advanced TEID correlation and behavioral anomaly detection identify fraudulent transition signatures and premium-rate patterns at the GTP-U layer in real-time.

◆ Immediate, Quantifiable ROI

OTT Fair Share Measurement

Regulators require empirical data to resolve infrastructure cost debates. EdgeNqoba classifies WhatsApp, YouTube, and Netflix traffic at 97.19% accuracy, providing exact bandwidth consumption metrics by hour, cell, and day.

◆ Standalone Regulator Product

5G Network Slicing Intelligence

5G SA network slicing requires real-time traffic classification to assign flows to the correct slice (eMBB, URLLC, mMTC). EdgeNqoba is the classification engine that makes 5G slicing commercially viable and operationally executable.

◆ 5G Monetization Enabler

Financial Services & Mobile Money

Mobile money platforms require guaranteed QoS for transaction success. EdgeNqoba identifies mobile money application traffic specifically, aligning with World Bank/ITU FIGI methodology for digital financial services QoS KPIs.

◆ Transaction Assurance

Roaming QoE Assurance

Operators lack visibility into subscriber experience on partner networks. Deployed at the GSMA IPX layer, EdgeNqoba provides exact roaming QoE metrics and interconnect quality assurance for international traffic.

◆ Global Interconnect Ready

Emergency Services Priority

Encrypted VoIP emergency calls cannot be routed with priority today. EdgeNqoba classifies VoIP-over-encrypted-OTT with 97.19% accuracy, enabling life-safety priority routing and fulfilling critical regulatory mandates.

◆ Life-Safety Mandate

Satellite & Terrestrial Fusion

As LEO satellite internet integrates with terrestrial 4G/5G at the GTP-U layer, hybrid networks create new blind spots. EdgeNqoba provides unified intelligence at this exact intersection, future-proofing visibility across Africa.

◆ Future-Proofing Infrastructure

Each vertical represents a standalone commercial opportunity with immediate market demand.
