METHOD AND ARRANGEMENT FOR TESTING OF A CAPACITY OF A COMMUNICATION NETWORK

摘要

A method in a communication network node for testing a capacity of a communication network comprising the communication network node is provided. The communication network node communicates with a plurality of user equipments on downlink and uplink channels over an air interface. The communication network node generates (201) artificial load in a traffic model converter unit comprised in the communication network node, using a traffic model. After reserving (202) a number of physical resource blocks to said generated artificial load, said traffic model converter unit in the communication network node sends (203) information about physical resources that are available for real user equipment load to a scheduler within the communication network node. The scheduler schedules (204) physical resource blocks for said real user equipment load.
