Chinese telecom equipment maker, ZTE, Monday announced that it has conducted a joint testing with China Telecom in several cities to test the 4G network performance in multiuser and high traffic scenarios.
According to ZTE, in the test that was conducted in Shanghai, the network built by ZTE delivered exceptional performance, where one single CS accessed a maximum of 450 subscribers simultaneously for the first time with access success rate recording 100% and the CPU load lower than 30%. The company also claims that when 450 subscribers accessed video services at the same time, which made the cell’s throughput exceed 100Mbps, the CPU load was still lower than 9%.
ZTE said it has specially designed the test case for signaling storm, enabling 4G networks to handle the burst of large traffic. The company added that it has managed to demonstrate the use case by having 450 subscribers to execute paging and activating repeatedly, while keeping the CPU utilization at about 36%.
