First protocol test solutions for 3G terminals
The world's first comprehensive protocol test solutions for 3G terminals have been launched for the first time in the Asia-Pacific region by Anite Telecoms.
Solution for testing dual-RAT handsets
Anite Telecoms has launched the industry's first dual-RAT (Radio Access Technology) handset test solution.
Based on the Anite SAT, SAT-RRM tests are an extension to the broadest portfolio of UTRAN and multi-RAT protocol conformance tests available.
Many developers find it difficult to balance available testing resource to satisfactorily complete both RF conformance and protocol testing.
3GPP 34.121 (Section 8) test cases test the interaction between handset communications protocol and radio performance and Anite's SAT-RRM has been optimised especially to address this.

Test cases show green light for 3GPP compliance
Anite has released 200 3rd Generation Partnership Project conformance test cases to enable testing and approval of mobile phones and wireless terminals for use on next-generation cellular networks.
Because it is integrated with Anite's SAT(A) protocol tester, SAT-RRM eliminates the need to buy expensive stand-alone radio conformance test resources for RRM testing.
SAT-RRM is a Radio Resource Management Test Platform offering wireless developers the highest level of confidence that their handset designs will handle the dynamic network configurations inherent in a UTRAN network.
The SAT-RRM compliments the recently announced GS-8800+ collaboration with its hardware partner Agilent Technologies.
A full RF Conformance System for UTRAN technologies, the GS-8800+ is the first HSDPA RF conformance system on the market.
Lance Hiley, Marketing Director at Anite Telecoms commented: "SAT-RRM is yet another example of how Anite's SAT single platform approach can meet the needs of demanding wireless developers".
"SAT-RRM is a cost effective platform that extends their protocol testing capability into the demanding Section 8 realm without having to make a dedicated RF system purchase".
"It compliments our GS-8800+ RF Conformance Tester collaboration with Agilent perfectly - providing a comprehensive RF test capability to our customers when they need it while speeding up time-consuming development tasks".
Hiley added: "Our aim is to ensure that Anite is first to introduce test platforms for new 3GSM technologies and to follow that up with conformance test support in advance of market needs".
"Our SAT platform enables us to extend this to the RF conformance testing area - ensuring our customers will benefit from the SAT technology roadmap for HSPA and beyond".
Available either as a dedicated test platform, or as an upgrade to an existing Anite SAT(A), SAT-RRM is a cost-effective solution for global handset manufacturers and test laboratories who want to reduce their risk, costs and time to market.
