GL Communications Inc. a global leader in telecom test and measurement solutions, announced today its enhanced End-to-End Wireless Network Simulation Test Suite (4G LTE + IMS, 3G, 2G). The Test Suite is enhanced to support variety of procedures for testing inter-operability between the networks simulating Voice, and SMS (Circuit Switched (CS) traffic) and WEB HTTP browsing (Packet Switched (PS) traffic) with roaming/non-roaming users in the network. The test suite supports massive number of subscriber profiles (up to 64,000 Voice/SMS) using a single CSV database system shared across the 4G, 3G, and 2G networks.
End-to-End Wireless Network Simulation Test Suite
Live Network
Mr. Vijay Kulkarni CEO of the GL Communications Inc said ,“ GL's Wireless Network Simulation Test Suite (4G LTE + IMS, 3G, 2G) along with radio access elements is used to provide an advanced full-fledged “Live Network” at your company premises in any customized package to suit test requirements. The test suite provides reliable integrated solutions to vendors and service providers for simulation, monitoring, troubleshooting any wireless network, including, 4G, 3G, 2G and upcoming 5G. The test suite is an invaluable tool for protocol characterization and testing, performance measurement, training, and education.”
He further added, “One can setup a complete virtual real-time network simulating all the network elements, or any of the network elements in the architecture can be replaced with user's DUT to perform single interface, multi-interface, or wrap-around testing. Complex scenarios such as roaming, handovers, inter-network calls can be achieved easily. The Remote MAPS™ Controller application communicates with multiple MAPS™ Servers over TCP/IP and allows for multi-node multi-interface simulation from a single client GUI.”
Few Important Enhancements
A recent enhancement to MAPS™ Wireless Network Simulation Test Suite (4G LTE + IMS, 3G, 2G) includes ability to simulate –
- Inter-network calls – Inter-operability between 4G with IMS, 3G, 2G networks
- Roaming procedures across 3G and 4G networks
- 4G user calling 3G user via Circuit Switched Fall-Back (CSFB)
- Inter and Intra Network Handovers Procedures
- Location Services
- Offline and Online Charging Procedures
- High Density traffic simulation
- Higher volume Voice and SMS calls (hundreds of calls/sec and 64,000 simultaneous calls/platform) with MAPS™ RTP HD appliance
- Easily achieve massive simulation of UEs (up to 500000) with high density (up to 4 Gbps or 40 Gbps) mobile traffic (stateful HTTP/PCAP) generation per MAPS™ PacketLoad appliance
