Centria test network environment
Centria test network environment is located in Ylivieska town in Bothnia area, Finland in a suburban setting. Several research, proof-of-concept trials and public demonstrations have been carried out in Centria’s test network environment. The field test environment is a heterogeneous network build with commercial hardware and software components. The test network environment consists of several base stations and sites and is well connected nationwide in Finland with other test environments enabling versatile end-to-end testing in large-scale test environment. Test environment includes Pop-up base stations, which can be utilized as a rapidly deployable network solution.
