Objective

The TR-398 Issue 2 WiFi Performance test plan by the Broadband forum provides a comprehensive set of tests to qualify the performance of WiFi access points (APs) designed for residential and small office environments. Radio performance, Throughput, Connection Stability, Airtime Fairness, AP Co-existence, Mu_MIMO Performance, Spatial Consistency and Long-term Stability are some of the test areas covered in this test plan. The test plan is designed for service providers deploying in home WiFi APs to qualify the APs in the lab before deployment and for equipment makers to test during the development of the APs. Candela Technologies offers a fully automated TR-398 Issue 2 test system. The user can select from the list of tests available. Most tests can run fully automated, though some require user interaction. Measurements are made and compared to the specified PASS/FAIL criteria in the TR-398 Issue 2 test plan and this report will show the summary PASS/FAIL results followed more detailed results for each test.

6.2.2 Maximum TCP Throughput Test


Summary

The Maximum throughput test intends to measure the maximum throughput performance of the DUT with a single station active. The test uses TCP connections and the attenuation is adjusted to emulate a distance of 2 meters. The 2.4Ghz station is configured for 20Mhz bandwidth and the 5Ghz station is configured for 80Mhz bandwidth. In both cases the station is configured for a maximum of two spatial streams.

Test Procedure

These steps are done for 2.4Ghz and then for 5Ghz bands.
  1. Establish the LAN connection, create 1 station and allow the station to associate with the DUT.
  2. Measure the downlink TCP throughput, using a test time of 120 seconds.
  3. Measure the uplink TCP throughput, using a test time of 120 seconds.

Pass/Fail Criteria

  1. For N 2.4Ghz, upload rate must be at least 100Mbps
  2. For N 2.4Ghz, download rate must be at least 100Mbps
  3. For AC 5Ghz, upload rate must be at least 560Mbps
  4. For AC 5Ghz, download rate must be at least 560Mbps
  5. For AX 2.4Ghz, upload rate must be at least 200Mbps
  6. For AX 2.4Ghz, download rate must be at least 200Mbps
  7. For AX 5Ghz, upload rate must be at least 720Mbps
  8. For AX 5Ghz, download rate must be at least 720Mbps

Candela Score

The Candela Score for Max Throughput Test is calculated as the percentage of the actual throughput vs the required throughput.
