Advanced testing of mobile applications and devices.

This paper describes PerformNetworks, which is an enhanced test and research facility for cutting edge mobile communications managed by the MORSE group in the University of Malaga. This facility is an evolution, containing key improvements introduced on top of the work presented in NOMS 2012 [1]. The test environment has been extended to support new features available in LTE-Advanced networks, power consumption measurements and channel emulation in uplink. The PerformNetworks testbed is a reference research platform that has been used in multiple experiments.
