Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer readable media for stress testing mobile network equipment using CPRI are disclosed. According to one method, a plurality of messages is generated for simulating a plurality of user equipment (UE) devices. The plurality of messages is transmitted over a common public radio interface (CPRI) link to a radio equipment controller (REC) in order to stress test the REC component.
Claims30
A method for stress testing mobile network equipment using common public radio interface (CPRI), the method comprising:
- generating a plurality of messages for simulating a plurality of user equipment (UE) devices;
- and
- transmitting the plurality of messages over a common public radio interface (CPRI) link to a radio equipment controller (REC) component of a mobile network device to stress test the REC component.
A system for stress testing mobile network equipment using common public radio interface (CPRI), the system comprising:
- a radio equipment controller (REC) component of a mobile network device for receiving messages over a common public radio interface (CPRI) link;
- and
- a multi-UE simulator for generating and transmitting a plurality of messages for simulating a predetermined number of user equipment (UE) devices to the REC over the CPRI link to stress test the REC component.
A computer readable medium comprising computer executable instructions embodied in a tangible computer readable medium and when executed by a processor of a computer performs steps comprising:
- generating a plurality of messages for simulating a plurality of user equipment (UE) devices;
- and
- transmitting the plurality of messages over a common public radio interface (CPRI) link to a radio equipment controller (REC) component of a mobile network device.
