Throughput
The objective of this test is to find the throughput of the device under test
for which there is no frame loss. Starting at the specified maximum rate
(
Max. Rate
), the rate converges towards the highest throughput without
frame loss. The search is done with a halving/doubling method until a final
value is reached. The test performs the number of trials defined (
Trials
).
The throughput measurement is validated by the number of times
specified (
Validations
) for the predefined duration
(Trial Duration)
. The
Accuracy and Acceptable Errors specify how precise the result must be.
The test is performed for each defined frame size.
