. � r � � I , i , ' s r � �- City of Decatur Mobile Data System Acceptance Test Plan TEST PROCEDURE OVERVIEW RF NETWORK THROUGHPUT TEST � This document details the RF throughput test that is designed to confirm the ability of II� the DATAxAD�o RF network as installed for the City to support the projected RF '� workload as documented in Attachment 1 City of Decatur Projected RF Workload to this ' agreement.The throughput test will be conducted as an adjunct to the Deliverables - " ---- � - - Verification Acceptance Procedure,Communication Link Verification Acceptance Test, and Coverage Verification Acceptance Test as outlined in the DATAx�,��o Acceptance Test Procedure document. The test will consist of two distinct components:the outbound traffic test and the inbound traffic test. Although there are two distinct test components,both components will be executed simultaneously in order to simulate a level of network contention consistent with that expected during production use of the network. Outbound Traffic Test The outbound traffic test will consist generally of the test host loading the RF network with outbound (BDLC to 96+MRM) data traffic at a level required to simulate the total amount of outbound traffic per hour per virtual channel as documented in the DATAxAD�o Projected RF Workload as referenced above. Inbound Traffic Test The inbound traffic test will consist of loading the DATAx�,D�o RF network with inbound (96+MRM to BDLC) data traffic at a level required to simulate the total amount of inbound traffic per hour as documented in the DATA1t�.D�o Projected RF Workload as referenced above. Test Requirements The required test resources consist of:one test host; l0 vehicles equipped with an ' Ericsson MDX 800 MHZ 25W Radio,a DATA1tAD�o 96+Mobile Radio Modem(MRM) and accessories;l0 mobile test workstations;and sufficient City personnel to conduct the test. The test host will be provided by DATAxA��o and is an IBM-compatible computer with an RS-232 async interface for connection of the test host with the DATAxAD�o Base Station Data Link Controller(BDLC).The test host will perform the following tasks: • Generate test messages of a preselected size • Pass these test messages to the BDLC at preselected intervals via the serial connection • Time stamp delivery of the test messages to the BDLC � Receive ACK or NAK messages from the BDLC • Store test messages,time stamps,and ACK/NAK information in a logging subsystem �:��L�?/��0" 12
