Abstract
A network device receives probe packets communicated by a user equipment device. The network device communicates response packets back to the user equipment device, including timestamps, and/or other information. The user equipment device may be configured to test the performance of different portions of a wireless network (i.e., determine an available bandwidth measurement throughput (ABMT) of the wireless network) by accessing different network devices (or information associated with different network devices).
Claims17
A method for tuning packet trains in a wireless network, the method comprising:
- transmitting a first packet train;
- transmitting a second packet train;
- tuning the first packet train to a first radio bearer configuration of a first operator;
- and
- tuning the second packet train to a second radio bearer configuration of a second operator, wherein the second operator is different than the first operator,
- wherein the first packet train and the second packet train are tuned to account for changes in a radio environment.
A system for tuning packet trains in a wireless network, the system comprising:
- a processing device comprising one or more processors configured to:
- transmit a first packet train;
- transmit a second packet train;
- tune the first packet train to a first radio bearer configuration of a first operator;
- and
- tune the second packet train to a second radio bearer configuration of a second operator, wherein the second operator is different than the first operator,
- wherein the first packet train and the second packet train are tuned to account for changes in a radio environment.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having one or more computer-readable instructions thereon which when executed by one or more processors cause the one or more processors to:
- transmit a first packet train;
- transmit a second packet train;
- tune the first packet train to a first radio bearer configuration of a first operator;
- and
- tune the second packet train to a second radio bearer configuration of a second operator, wherein the second operator is different than the first operator,
- wherein the first packet train and the second packet train are tuned to account for changes in a radio environment.
