Smart phones are directly contributing to the surge in demand for high-bandwidth, high-performance wireless broadband access. New services like mobile gaming and mobile TV are forcing network operators to upgrade to LTE networks. Hence, network operators and telecom equipment manufacturers must ensure that their solutions deliver seamless accessibility and a rich end user experience on LTE networks.

The introduction of new 4G network elements entails several challenges for the testing of EPC network nodes, such as:

  • Load sharing and redundancy
  • Supporting higher performance requirements
  • Inter RAT support with 3GPP and non-3GPP networks
  • Continuously evolving specifications
  • Maturing test and measurement systems


Join our experts for a webinar on September 14, 2011 at 2:00pm EST, to learn about the challenges, pitfalls, and best practices in testing LTE EPC networks and products. We will be providing real-world examples of specific situations and techniques distilled from our LTE EPC testing engagements with leading telecom equipment manufacturers.

This webinar will teach you how to best address the top 10 challenges of LTE EPC testing by:

  • Understanding the key challenges of testing LTE EPC solutions
  • Identifying the typical risks and pitfalls to avoid across multiple testing phases
  • Applying real-world examples to specific testing scenarios
  • Identifying approaches to cost-effective testing to deliver high-quality products quickly

Who should attend

  • LTE Product/Project Managers
  • LTE System Architects
  • Heads of Testing/Test Managers
  • Test Environment Managers/Test Architects
  • Testing Professionals
