Abstract
We generally describe an apparatus () for user plane traffic quality analysis in a wireless communication network, the apparatus () comprising: an interface configured to be coupled to a user plane probe () arranged on a bidirectional user plane traffic flow path of user plane traffic flowing through the wireless communication network between a first terminal () and a second terminal () of the wireless communication network, and an estimation unit () coupled to the interface, wherein the estimation unit () is configured to estimate, based on a probing, by the user plane probe (), of the user plane traffic flowing in a first direction () in a first segment () of the user plane traffic flow path from the first terminal () to the user plane probe (), a user plane traffic quality of the user plane traffic flowing in a second direction () in the first segment () from the user plane probe () to the first terminal (), wherein the first direction () is opposite to the second direction (), and wherein the user plane traffic is not testable via the user plane probe () in the second direction ().
