Testing Throughput using iPerf data pump calculation

Tools

While testing throughput using iperf, is there a calculation for the data to be pumped from fileserver?

For example if we want to check throughput wrt n78 cell, how much data to be pumped from file server in DL using iperf?

Normally we used to pump 480m to 500m data for iperf (NSA).

You can pump as per your gNB capacity.

Thank you.

But is there a calculation as UE throughput also varying?

For 100 Mbps getting 70 Mbps throughput
For 500 Mbps getting 95 Mbps throughput

If we pump let’s say 500M on iperf on qxdm we can see around 470-480 Mbps.

Check bler = 0% ( for better thp)

I think you should see BLER / CQI / RI while pumping traffic through App server.

We have seen around 900 Mbps in NSA while pumping 1.6 Gbps acrss 400 * 4 Layers.
