Network testing plays an important role in the iterative process of developing new
communication protocols and algorithms. However, test environments have to keep up with …

Lack of unallocated spectrum and increasing demand for bandwidth in wireless networks is
forcing new devices and technologies to share frequency bands. Spectrum sensing is a key …

The demand to reduce energy consumption in wireless networks has become popular
recently. In this paper, aimed at the problem that how to reduce energy consumption through …

The objective of this paper is to develop a controller-centric combinatorial wrap-around
interaction testing methodology for a stateful path computation element (PCE)-based …

This paper describes the experience of designing, implementing, and evaluating a carrier-
grade transport network with stateful path computation element (PCE) extensions. The key …

The current transition from the 3G (Third Generation) to the 4G (Fourth Generation) mobile
systems requires over-the-air (OTA) testing of wireless equipment with multiple antennas. In …

Automated testing is an increasingly dominant topic in telecommunications and QA. Despite
test automation's increased prominence, it remains heavily underutilized across all …

Executing test automation for large-scale software-intensive embedded systems requires a
lot of hardware because tests must be executed for different hardware configurations. When …

The focus of this chapter is centered on the network underutilization during low traffic
periods (eg, night zone), which enables the Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) to save …
