Deliver Flawless Telco Experiences Across Real Networks, Apps, and Devices

Ans: OSS or Operations Support Systems refers to the information processing systems leveraged by operators to manage their communications networks. OSS supports back office operations like service activation, provisioning, and bandwidth management that help users within telco operations.

Ans: 5G showcases complex use cases and architectural advancements that encompass core, transport, RAN, and fiber network elements simultaneously. This requires advanced emulation and verification technology in the 5G test lab that is scalable to full 5G deployment in the field.

5G fiber networks also require much higher speed, bandwidth, reliability, and synchronization, while network function virtualization and edge computing introduce added visibility obstacles. As a result, the dynamics of 5g networks require automated, real-time intelligence platforms to effectively test for the performance network optimization of 5G.

Ans: LTE technology is primarily based on a 3GPP standard that provides a downlink speed of up to 150 Mbps and an uplink speed of up to 50 Mbps. LTE protocol is held to 3GPP's high standards and requires testing accordingly. Engineers are required to perform protocol tests along with functional tests to make sure that the protocols function efficiently and comply with the 3GPP LTE specifications.

Ans: Primary types of testing performed on telecom software include:

• Performance testing
• Security testing
• Interoperability testing
• IVR testing
• Interconnection testing
