AEON Cloud overview
What AEON Cloud is, how the digital testbench differs from a physical tester, and how the pieces fit together.
5 min read
AEON Cloud is a managed 3GPP conformance testing service. You push a UE build (or point us at an open-source UE such as srsUE), reserve an SDR-backed radio lane, and execute standard TTCN-3 campaigns from a browser, a CLI, or a CI pipeline.
The important architectural difference: there is no physical tester in your lab. The tester is a service. Instead of racking a box, calibrating it, and booking time on it, you authenticate to an API and get a lane.
System components
- Build repository — versioned UE images with checksums and provenance.
- Scheduler — assigns executions to free radio lanes across regions.
- TTCN-3 engine — compiles and executes 3GPP test suites (TS 38.523, TS 36.523, TS 38.533, TS 38.521).
- Radio lanes — LimeSDR and Ettus B210 hardware in shielded enclosures.
- AI Telecom Copilot — reads logs and PCAPs and explains failures against 3GPP clauses.
- Reports service — signed PDF/JSON verdict reports and coverage traceability.

Next steps
- Quickstart — first verdict in under 30 minutes.
- Install the CLI — the primary interface for engineers.
- Install srsRAN UE — bring an open-source UE to the platform.
Run this against a real SDR lane
The tester is a service, not a box. Push a build, reserve a lane, get a verdict.
