Patent attributes
Introduced here is a system and method to simulate operation of a 5G wireless telecommunication network, prior to deploying a component of the network, to detect problems before the problems affect a large number of users. The system can provide a graphical user interface enabling a user to define a test including a test request and a criterion that a response to the test request needs to satisfy. The processor can create a virtual instance of the network including a virtual instance of a 5G NR node and a virtual instance of a second node. While the physical 5G wireless telecommunication network and the nodes include hardware and software, the virtual instances of the network and the nodes are software constructs simulating the behavior of the physical counterparts. Once the changes are released, the system can also be a monitoring tool to monitor performance of the network.
