AMARI UE Simbox Specs, Application, 5G, 4G, 3GPP, LTE, NB-IOT, NR UE

Overview

Amarisoft UE simulator is an ideal solution to support functional and performance testing of 4G and 5G networks. Acting as a 3GPP compliant LTE, NB-IOT and NR UE, it can simulate hundreds of UEs sharing the same spectrum.

What It Can Do For You

AMARI UE Simbox is an ideal solution to support functional and performance testing of 4G LTE eNodeB , 5G NR gNodeB and 4G/5G core networks. Acting as a 3GPP compliant LTE and 5G SA/NSA UE, it can simulate up to 1000+ UEs sharing the same spectrum with different types of traffic within multiple cells. It is also one of the first solutions supporting NB-IoT and Cat M. The offer is completed by an integrated IP simulation package for reproductible test results. Amarisoft also offers a tiny 4G and 5G core to wrap your eNB/gNB and allow an end to end testing.

AMARI UE Simbox E is an ideal solution to support functional and performance testing of 4G LTE eNodeB , 5G NR gNodeB and 4G/5G core networks. Acting as a 3GPP compliant LTE and 5G SA/NSA UE, it can simulate up to 1000+ UEs sharing the same spectrum with different types of traffic within multiple cells. It is also one of the first solutions supporting NB-IoT and Cat M. The major enhancement compared to AMARI UE Simbox Series is the support of 100 MHz cells. The offer is completed by an integrated IP simulation package for reproductible test results. Amarisoft also offers a tiny 4G and 5G core to wrap your eNB/gNB and allow an end to end testing.

Use Cases

eNodeB Under Test

In the scenario where the eNodeB is to be tested, it can be tested by the Valid8 4G Network Emulator emulating the core network. Additionally, load and conformance tests are available for interfaces S1-MME and S1-U. In the case where the eNodeB needs to be tested on the RF side, it can be tested by the Valid8 4G UE Emulator.

Supported Scenarios:
  • ‍Power on / Start up
  • Attach
  • TAU
  • Attach
  • eRAB Setup
  • Detach
  • X2 handover
  • Emulates MME (for S1-MME) and SGW (for S1-U) along with all other needed core network elements, exposing all internal interfaces
  • Conformance tests available for S1-MME, S1-U, and X2

gNodeB Under Test

In the scenario where the gNodeB is to be tested, it can be tested by the Valid8 5G Network Emulator emulating the core network. Additionally, load and conformance tests are available for interfaces N1/N2/N3. In the case where the gNodeB needs to be tested on the RF side, it can be tested by the Valid8 5G UE Emulator.

Supported Scenarios:
  • ‍Power on / Start up
  • Attach/Registration
  • Detach/Deregistration
  • Session management
  • Emulates AMF along with all other needed core network elements, exposing all internal interfaces

  • Conformance & registration tests available for N1, N2, N3
