Abstract: A system for monitoring remote usage of test and measuring instruments is provided. The system comprises a monitoring unit and a plurality of measurement instruments. In this context, each measurement instrument of the plurality of measurement instruments is adapted to record a plurality of events, wherein each event of the plurality of events creates an event identifier and wherein the event identifier is logged in an event log. Additionally, the event identifier triggers a scheduled task which triggers a batch file script on the measurement instrument.

Abstract: An approach for the analysis of the impact of over the top (OTT) applications is provided, which operate “over the top” of the network applications, with respect to network performance and power consumption on mobile devices. A wireless network for an application-carrying device separate from wireless communications network test equipment is simulated. A wireless communications interface between the simulated network and the application-carrying device is monitored. The monitoring comprises measuring signaling data on a control plane, and measuring application data on a user plane related to at least one application implemented on the application-carrying device. Cross-layer measurement data is generated based on the measured signaling data and application data. The signaling data and the application data are measured on the basis of a common time reference of the test equipment.
