name: PTC
full_form: Parallel Test Component
context: Figure 5.2.1.7-1: Test model for Multi-USIM testing The test model consists of 2 instances of the NR PTC and the RRC/NAS Emulator PTC. These PTCs operate as normal. A Multiplex PTC receives all messages from the SS and decides, based on the cell id, to which instance of the NR PTCs to forward each message. The existing IP PTC is extended to include an additional co-ordination port to the 2nd instance of the NR PTC. 2 instances of the IMS PTC are always created: IMS_A is connected to NR5GC_A and IMS_B to NR5GC_B. The interface to the SS remains the same.
description: Parallel Test Component (PTC) is a component used in testing environments, particularly within 3GPP standardization for 5G networks. It simulates and tests various network scenarios, such as multi-USIM testing, by replicating network behavior.
explanation: PTC's primary function is to simulate network conditions for testing purposes, making it a tool used in the testing phase of telecommunications development rather than a core network element or protocol.
