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.
The addition of OFDM capability to the platform extends Anite's leadership in testing right to the edge of current wireless protocol development.
OFDM is increasingly becoming the radio transmission technique of choice with variations being included in the Wi-Fi and WiMAX standards.
OFDM is also being examined by 3GPP as the downlink portion for the long term evolution (LTE) of UTRAN.
The benefits of OFDM are high spectral efficiency, resiliency to RF interference, and lower multi-path distortion.
Anite's SAT(A) test platform supports Anite's SAS, Conformance Toolset and Developers' Toolset suites and therefore provides a stable, consistent base on which a complete test strategy can be built.
It effectively represents a common, single platform for Anite's entire toolset suite for those wishing to carry out handset and chipset development, integration, conformance and interoperability testing.
SAT supports industry standards and protocols as they evolve consistently across the entire toolset.
Anite's testing toolsets already support High Speed Packet Access (HSPA) - the protocol for the next generation of 3G telephony - and a wide range of industry protocols such as GSM, GPRS and W-CDMA.
"Anite is committed to providing wireless handset developers with the best tools to develop their products".
"Our work in developing the OFDM capabilities of SAT will ensure that we can extend the capability of this platform to address revolutionary standards as well as the evolution of our existing capabilities", said Lance Hiley, Anite Strategic Marketing Director.
"A single common platform that can be used by all parties and from one end of the product cycle to the other will help hugely in binding together dispersed development and testing activities".
"Anite's single platform approach once again allows users to improve their design, development and test costs and also reduce time to market".
