A user device may measure unidirectional latency of applications over asymmetric links. The user device may accurately measure application level unidirectional latency over cellular networks, without synchronizing system clocks. The user device may accurately measure the unidirectional latency in both an uplink direction and a downlink direction, without using a high-precision system clock and without synchronizing clocks between the user device and an application server.

Systems and methods for measuring unidirectional latency of applications over asymmetric links

A device may receive, from a browser, a message requesting that a first signal from a first base station of a first wireless network be attenuated in accordance with a first attenuation value. The device may set an attenuation level of the first wireless signal in accordance with the first attenuation value in response to the message. The first signal attenuated by the first attenuation value is wirelessly transmitted to a first user device at a first area shielded from signals wirelessly transmitted to a second user device at a second location.
