Abstract :
Along with the rapid evolution of wireless communication standards, it poses great challenges on developing an efficient traffic performance test platform in heterogeneous network (HetNet) based on user-perceived experience. In this paper, we put forward a four-dimensional model theory and implemented the smart-phone based UNOTest platform for this purpose. We further carried on a large scale experiment within 2 months in 2 cities of China to study and analyzed the performance of HetNet including 3G, Wi-Fi and a trial TD-LTE network. Detailed case studies and analysis further reveal some insights in which operators or researchers would be interested.
