A BS generates a test configuration of wireless signals for testing the BS for compliance with one or more criteria. The BS supports NB-IoT signals and NR signals, and is configured to support multiple carriers and to support operation within an RF bandwidth. The test configuration includes: a NB-IoT test signal placed as an outermost carrier at one or both edges of the RF bandwidth but not within a new radio minimum guard band, wherein for NB-IoT operation in new radio in-band, the NB-IoT test signal is placed as an outermost resource block within a NR transmission bandwidth configuration plus 15 kHz at an edge but not within the NR minimum guard band; and further test signal(s), comprising NR signals, in the RF bandwidth. The BS transmits the test configuration of wireless signals.

Path-loss measurements are determined for a test client device moving along a path in a field test environment in which field Wi-Fi mesh network nodes are distributed. The path-loss measurements are reproduced in a field-to-lab test environment that includes a test client device disposed in an electromagnetically-isolated chamber and field test Wi-Fi mesh network nodes disposed in respective electromagnetically-isolated chambers. The test client device and the field test Wi-Fi mesh network nodes are in wired or wireless communication with each other via signal lines. A programmable attenuator is electrically coupled to each signal line. The attenuation of each programmable attenuator is varied to reproduce the path-loss measurements from the field test environment. Path-loss measurements at the location of each field Wi-Fi mesh network node are also reproduced with the programmable attenuators to reproduce the field Wi-Fi mesh network node configuration.

A method and system for correlating a route with an external Wi-Fi network connection is disclosed herein. The aspects disclosed herein include generating information about the correlation, and employing the correlation for network operations, such as, communicating a file (or files), allowing communication from a vehicle, and/or performing routine updates via a vehicle.

The disclosed systems and methods use a public eNodeB to access a private P-GW, IMS and ePDG for testing purposes. The method of testing a DUT teaches loading the DUT with a designation of a test APN to access through a cellular or WiFi calling network. The APN names a test P-GW controlled by a testing entity—the P-GW name resolvable by accessing a GRX. The test P-GW is specially adapted to testing and providing control over tests. The DUT initiates contact with the network to establish an end-to-end IP connection through the P-GW designated by the APN. The P-GW generates test error conditions and codes during establishment of the connection, and can include attack messages, payloads and recording responses of the DUT to the APN attack messages and payloads. For other tests, the end-to-end connection is established, test traffic is carried over the connection, and test analysis is performed.
