Tester aids Bluetooth development
Anritsu has added to the support it offers to developers of Bluetooth wireless technology with the introduction of the ME7865A Bluetooth prequalification test system (PQTS).

Signal analyser upgrades tackle RF crowding
Anritsu has enhanced the MS269xA signal analyser with four new functions, including spectrogram and spurious emission measurement functions.
The PQTS enables companies to get their products to market much more quickly.
Using the PQTS in-house significantly reduces the risk of failure in the Bluetooth qualification process, by enabling manufacturers to ensure conformance to the RF test specification before committing to costly and time-consuming final conformance testing and qualification.
By using the PQTS, Anritsu customers also reduce the risks of transition from preproduction qualification to full production by using the same equipment throughout this cycle.
The MT8850A, a fundamental part of the PQTS, can be used stand-alone in the production line.
The software running on the PQTS has been developed in partnership with Cetecom, a leading Bluetooth Qualification Test Facility (BQTF) with test laboratories in Europe, the USA and Asia.
The test management software creates test cases derived from the features supported by the customer's Bluetooth device.
The software controls the instruments in the test system, to automatically perform the measurements, taking calibration issues into account.
It also incorporates a report generator, which, in addition to providing numeric results, uniquely provides packet traces.
To complete the package, Anritsu is offering a 15% discount on the qualification process at Cetecom Spain, which will provide the discount on the qualification testing and Bluetooth Qualification Body (BQB) services for one project to all purchasers of a PQTS.
