Periodic Keep-Alive

uc3.run_uc3()

Run UC3: Periodic Keep-Alive scenario.

Simulates multiple UEs that periodically send HTTP requests (keep-alive pings) to a remote server. This pattern reflects real-world background traffic in mobile applications (e.g. chat apps, weather updates).

Scenario Summary

  • Starts 4 UEs as containers using Docker Compose.

  • Each UE sends periodic HTTP GET requests (via curl) to a predefined URL.

  • The interval between pings is randomized between 30–35 seconds.

  • Simulation duration is randomly set between 300–600 seconds.

  • Scenario type is logged into β€˜data/current_uc.txt’.
