NT14-33926, 1.0, 11/7/2014 9

3.12 On-device BLIXT

BLIXT, a Patent Pending Technology which test capacity on a live network withoutsignificantly impacting subscriber service. Using Blixt will reduce the cost and timerequired to test network performance and deploy new capacity by estimating theavailable bandwidth using Available Bandwidth Measurement (ABM) Technology.

4 Performance

Performance tests have been performed using a test network with one i9506connected to an RCU. The focus of this was to test maximum throughput on one i9506phone via On-device testing. In summary, it was observed that the average throughputon On-device was up to 100-110 Mbps for HTTP download with acceptable CPUperformance.

For regular MDU testing, mostly we used four internal i9506 phones; 2 voice and 2data. In addition, we have also tested that the MDU can successfully perform up to 4parallel voice testing simultaneously.

Due to slow charging rate for Samsung phones via USB connection, some standalonephones connected to the RCU may run out of battery during testing especially whendoing heavy data on parallel.

8.1 TEMS Pocket Remote 10.0 Call Generator Support

Due to limitations in the Android operating system, TEMS Pocket Remote 10.0 does not supportvoice calls towards analogue call generators.

8.2 RSI User Rights

On test system with Windows XP SP3, RSI does not start when the user only belongs to group'Users',

The solution is to let a user belonging to group 'Administrators' log in and change permissionsfor 'Users' in registry and local dir.

After that change the RSI will be able to run as normal even for a user belonging to the group'Users'.

14 NT14-33926, 1.0,11/7/2014

8.3.10 Manual upload

Manual upload is not supported.

8.3.11 ScriptingThe test case scripting feature introduces multiple degrees of freedom. However, allfeatures are not advised to use on the RTU. Detailed recommendations can be foundin TEMS Service Control Script Designer User’s Manual and TEMS AutomaticMeasurement Methodology.

For example, the following limitations exist:

Setting the target file property for FTP DL will cause the RTU to crash.

It is not possible to edit service control scripts used by a work order.

Scripting can increase the test case execution frequency, i.e. the number of testactivities per time unit. One consequence is that more data may be recorded. It istherefore recommended to use a SIM capable of high uplink throughput in the uploadconfiguration.

8.3.12 APN Setting

APN from the OC is not used for smartphones. For smartphone testing the APNretrieved from the SIM is used.

8.3.13 On-device IP Trace

No On-device IP trace store in log file.

8.3.14 F3607gw and i9506 Incompatibili ty

F3607gw and i9506 cannot co-exist on the same system due to driver incompatibility.
