Genasys worked closely with the MORSE Research Group (Mobile Network and Software Reliability), led by the Head Professor Pedro Merino, to integrate its CBC with the Laboratory’s 4G and 5G core network at UMA.
The MORSE Laboratory has an outdoor deployment of commercial equipment that provides a framework to experiment on a federated European level. The Laboratory's equipment also enables end-to-end configuration of 4G and 5G networks and the monitorization of most elements obtaining correlated multi-layer information.
The rigorous end-to-end CBC testing included message generation, integration with the network nodes, sending messages, and message reception on a wide variety of mobile phone models. The user experience of receiving CBC alerts on the mobile phone models was also tested.
