Europe : Alcatel – Lucent says that it is one of the pioneers of 3G LTE in the world and has bought an important piece of development kit to sustain its position.
It has purchased a Load eNodeB Mobipass Tester from ERCOM. The new 3G LTE load system is part of the Mobipass eNodeB Tester Platform.
The new load tester facilitates the emulation of 3G LTE : core network (S1), hand-over (X2), end-user (UE), and eNodeB interfaces. The architecture provided by Mobipass gives a stand alone platform which can be used by any telecom OEM to aid in the development of 3G LTE equipment.
Mobipass 3G LTE solution eNodeB load and capacity test is as follows :
- Scalable solution for sub-system test, full system test bringing
multiple solutions depending of test strategy, number of UEs and
number of cells to support.
- Multiple test features and UE behavior emulation to ensure eNodeB
stress on strategic features.
- Graphical "Call Profile definition" for load test scenario including
traffic generator for applications (Htpp, FTP, VoIP, Web,etc)
- Execution of functional test scripts during load test campaign
- Analysis and decoding tools for LTE protocols.
- Support of latest 3GPP release for LTE.
- Support FDD and TDD standards for LTE
- Up to 3000 UEs with UE emulation full CPRI or RF over air interface,
S1 (MME and SGW) emulation for the core network and X2 emulation for
handovers.
- Support of 5, 10 and 20MHz bandwidth. Support of any LTE frequency
band.
Didier Pagnoux, ERCOM's CEO. Said "Thanks to Ercom long time expertise in load and capacity testing, our customer chose ERCOM's Mobipass solution to fulfill its extensive technical requirements and to meet its cost-effective development strategy"
