Concilium Technologies is offering Agilent Technologies and Anite Telecoms HSDPA RF conformance test solution, with the official release taking place in April 2006. Believed to an industry first, this is set to soon be followed by a complete W-CDMA RF conformance test.
"Both Agilent and Anite understand the time-to-market pressures faced by wireless R&D customers and test houses when bringing wireless devices to the market," said Danie Coetzee, telecom sales engineer at Concilium Technologies. "The natural synergy between our firms has enabled us to create end-to-end test solutions wireless developers can depend on for performance and repeatability.
"The HSDPA RF conformance test solution - the G88800+ - will provide a common test platform for increased test results consistency from early design RF and protocol testing," says Coetzee. "This solution will improve verification when the returned product has an identifiable problem, speed the repair process, reduce the return phone costs and speedily return products."
The GS-8800 system has now been extended, using the Anite Baseband Processor and Anite System Software to help 3G wireless device technology developers perform RF pre-conformance testing to 3GPP TS 34.121 specifications.
Anite's SAT protocol conformance test systems were the first in the industry to perform HSDPA protocol testing to 3GPP standards. Now this industry leadership extends itself to RF conformance testing. Anite's SAS system simulator and SAT systems use Agilent's E5515C (8960) wireless communications test set as a network simulator.
"With the high levels of complexity and new technology adoption in wireless products, design and validation teams require higher-performance test systems to support multiple formats," said Amir Aghdaei, vice president and general manager of Agilent's Measurement Systems Division. "The addition of HSDPA and W-CDMA formats for RF pre-conformance and design verification expands the capabilities of the GS-8800 system, which already supports GSM, GPRS, EGPRS, cdma2000, cdmaOne, 1xEV-DO, and AMPS technologies. Those seeking to expand the capabilities of installed GS-8800 RF design verification systems can upgrade to the GS-8800+ system with hardware and software upgrade options.
Concilium Technologies is the sole authorised distributor of Agilent Technologies and Anite test and measurement solutions in southern Africa.
