Abstract

The subject matter described herein relates to methods, systems, and computer readable media for testing inter-cell interference coordination capabilities of wireless access nodes. One method for testing inter-cell interference mitigation capabilities of wireless access nodes includes, in a network equipment test device, emulating at least one user equipment (UE) served by a wireless access node under test. The method further includes emulating a wireless access node. The method further includes causing the emulated wireless access node to generate and send an indication of inter-cell interference to the wireless access node under test. The method further includes monitoring the response and evaluating the performance of the wireless access node under test to the indication of inter-cell interference using the network equipment test device.
