Powerful analysis and reporting capabilities. Fast, easy test parameter and configuration setting.

8 LAB TESTING HELPS REDUCE FIELD TEST TIME AND COST The cost of finding and fixing device issues in a live network can be very high. Lab testing with real-world simulation capability, used earlier in the device development and verification cycle can tremendously improve the reliability of results and help reduce the costs associated with field/drive testing. With the option for integrated RF fading and noise, users can easily recreate a realworld RF environment in the lab. The custom-design tools help quick modeling and modification of test conditions such as AWGN SNR, multi-path, cell power and much more. In addition, the 8100 Mobile Device Test System includes 3GPP and operator-specified drive-route models used for testing performance of voice, data and location under various mobility scenarios. Drive testing, already a complex and expensive activity, is becoming an even bigger challenge with the emergence of multi- RAT, multi-mode, LTE-enabled devices. Drive testing will not be sufficient to address the full range of interoperability issues across a limited number of drive routes for mobility testing. The 8100 Mobile Device Test System offers network operators and device manufacturers the opportunity to shorten the device test cycle and improve the reliability and end-user experience. SAMPLE FIELD TEST COST SAVINGS 1. Assumptions: 10 new devices brought to market each year 6 drive tests per device per route Average price of drive testing per device per route = US$2,000 Average number of routes = 5 2. Objective: reduce from 6 to 3 iterations per device per route 3. Annual cost of drive testing: 10 devices x 5 routes x 6 times/route x US$2,000/device/route iteration = US$600, If drive route iterations could be cut in half through lab-based performance testing, annual cost savings = US$300,000 HOW MUCH COULD you save?
