3G UMTS Radio Access Network Testing
Ixia offers a complete UMTS functional and load testing portfolio using high speed downlink/uplink packet access (HSDPA/HSUPA). Full protocol stack testing of the lub interface with HSDPA and HSUPA is available for functional verification, with additional flexibility for lower layer protocol analysis. Ixia test systems deliver the industry’s highest load test capacity systems, enhanced with advanced traffic generators that effectively stress and verify UMTS terrestrial radio access network (UTRAN) and core network components. The network components that can be tested include the node B, UE, radio network controller (RNC), and GPRS support nodes.
Ixia UMTS testing supports:
- OC-3/OC-12 physical interfaces for maximum system aggregated throughput.
- HSDPA/HSUPA data rates up to 14.3/5.7 Mbps.
- Large-scale UE simultaneous emulation.
- User and control plane data generation and validation.
