MAPS™ ED137 Recorder Emulator

Overview
GL’s MAPS™ ED137 Recorder (PKS117) can simulate recorder interfaces for both Air-to-Ground and Ground-to-Ground calls at CWP,
GRS and Recorder endpoints as per ED137-4B and ED137-4C versions, as defined under EUROCAE (European Organization for Civil
Aviation Equipment) Working Group 67.
MAPS™ ED137 Recorder supports Real Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP) to establish, terminate and maintain media sessions to deliver
media to recording servers. The software not only provides complete control over call scenarios to be tested, but also the ability to
customize the network parameters for signaling and VoIP traffic. It has the capability of generating more than hundreds of recording
sessions to verify performance and load testing.
For more information, please visit MAPS™ ED137 Recorder Emulator webpage.

MAPS™ ED137 Recorder Use Cases


CASE 1: Simulate AG call recording towards Recorder
MAPS™ ED137 Recorder can be configured as CWP and GRS to simulate AG recording sessions towards the Recorder (device under
test) to test its recording interface as per ED137 volume 4.

Figure: MAPS™ ED137 Recorder configured as CWP and GRS

CASE 2: Simulate GG call recording towards Recorder


MAPS™ ED137 Recorder can be configured as CWPs to simulate GG recording sessions towards the Recorder (device under test) to test
its recording interface as per ED137 volume 4.

MAPS™ ED137 Recorder Use Cases (Contd.)


CASE 3: Testing Recorder interface of CWP/VCS
In this test case, CWP or VCS vendors can use MAPS™ ED137 Recorder (simulating Recorder) to test the Recorder interface of their
equipment.

CASE 4: Testing Recorder interface of GRS


In this test case, MAPS™ ED137 Recorder is configured as the Recorder to receive RTSP sessions towards the GRS (DUT), thus testing
Recorder interface of GRS.

MAPS™ ED137B Volume 4 Recorder


CWP/GRS/Recorder Call Simulation
In call generation, MAPS™ is configured for the out going messages, while in call receive mode, it is configured to respond to incoming
messages.
Scripts/sessions can be run repeatedly for defined number of iterations with results of the test. Multiple scripts can be run
simultaneously or sequentially or randomly. Scheduler helps to run a set of scripts (test cases) at different intervals as defined by user.
MAPS™ supports performance and automated stress/load testing capabilities simulating hundreds of recording sessions over the
Recorder interface. All the recorded files are automatically saved at Recorder terminal in GL’s proprietary file format (*.glw).
• Supported ED-137/4B Call Scenarios
− Air-to-Ground Call operations at CWP Node - Voting, Simultaneous Squelch, Start Squelch
− Air-to-Ground Call operations at GRS Node - SCT with SQL ON
− Ground-to-Ground Call operations - Call Intrusion, Call Transfer, Call Hold

The Call Record Data for AG and GG calls are saved in CSV file format. Call Record Data entry for each recorded call in the CSV file will
also contain the recorded audio file. These audio files are in GL’s proprietary format (GLW).

Profile Configurations
Each profile represents a CWP/GRS/Recorder node simulating recorder interface. The parameters involved to simulate a recorder in-
terface include RTSP session/transport parameters, codecs and Call Data Record Properties and Operations. All these parameters can
be easily configured in the XML based configuration files.
Similar to signaling, traffic configuration files allow users to customize the traffic parameters. User can create hundreds of profiles and
each profile will have its own set of parameters. Profiles will also provide feasibility to add custom parameters like call data record
properties.
