Racal Instruments Wireless Solutions has launched its 6401 Release 5 Layer1Test System, claiming an industry first.
The launch of the 6401 Release 5 Layer 1 Test System will enable handset designers and manufacturers to accelerate their development process for products incorporating Release 5 features, the test house claimed.
Aimed primarily at DSP and baseband developers, the system also provides RF test capability and can be used to test initial software simulations through to completed hardware.
Beyond Layer 1 the test system can be used for UE testing throughout the product development lifecycle including Layer 2 and 3 protocol development and conformance testing, dual standard (GSM-UMTS) intersystem handover development and conformance testing, RRM pre- and full conformance testing, and RF pre- and full conformance testing.
