Purpose
This test is intended to characterize peak download and upload performance with downlink heavy TDD configuration for 5G access points in ideal RF condition.
Test infrastructure
• Celona network w/ (1) AP
• iperf3 server
• UE under test
Test characteristics
This test involves the following parameters and/ or variables (inaddition to those described in the General Test Details andCharacteristics and TDD Config setup details)
Parameters
Parameter selection is based on frequency band of access point and configured bandwidth for the access point used to perform the test.
Variables
-l (length of buffer to read or write) | 1300 bytes |

Procedure
TCP
iperf3 -c <iperf_server> -p <iperf_control_port> -t 300 --logfile <device_under_test><Testcase_id>_<Edgeip>_<Traffic_type>.txt
where
• <iperf_server> is the IP address of an iperf3 server
• <iperf_control_port> is a port on the iperf server where an iperf3 process is listening
• <device_under_test> is the make and model of the device
UDP
iperf3 -c <iperf_server> -p <iperf_control_port> -u -R --bitrate <Dl_Bitrate>M -l 1300 -t 300
--logfile <device_under_test><Testcase_id>_<Edgeip>_<Traffic_type>.txt
