Eliminating line displays and instrument front-panel buttons while supporting remote control via Ethernet or GPIB cuts instrument costs, helping reduce device production costs. 50% to 75% Smaller Footprint Instead of four separate test stations each requiring setup, the all-in-one, high-performance MT8870A main frame with up to four installed test modules saves both production line space and setup time. Compared to Anritsu products VSA/VSG All-in-one Tester (Parallel Phone) MT8870A 4 Module Configuration 75% smaller 50% smaller Slide10

12 Shorter Measurement Times Fast Measurements Fast Measurements Independent of External PC The Dual Core CPU, DDR3 memory and fast PCIe bus in each MU88700xA TRx Test module assure fast measurements independent of the external PC. Signal Generator and Signal Analyzer in Each Test Module Each of the four test modules installed in the main frame has an independently operated signal generator and signal analyzer supporting separate parallel testing of up to four mobiles. Large Memory 2 GB digitizer memory for Tx tests supports onerun, long-term capture. LTE WLAN GSM W-CDMA Bluetooth FM / Audio GNSS Rx test waveforms can be preloaded into 4 GB ARB memory, cutting reload times when switching wireless standards. Slide11

13 Supports Latest Manufacturing Technologies Fast Measurements Signaling measurements using wireless communications to set devices and test set have long test times due to the time taken to establish wireless communications. The supported non-signaling method cuts test times by omitting wireless communications and controlling directly from an external PC. To eliminate communications with the external PC, the sequence measurement (List Mode) function performing measurement between the device and instrument according to a known measurement sequence, is also supported for future implementations.

46 WLAN MIMO Wireless Technology Access points and WLAN routers are key parts of the infrastructure supporting typical portable devices like tablets. MIMO (Multi-Input Multi-Output) WLAN technology standardized by IEEE n is being used increasingly as a method for improving the speed and quality of data transfers between wireless sections and it is now being deployed in IEEE ac networks. WLAN networks using MIMO are expected to become widespread in the future. MIMO uses multiple antennas and the MIMO processes handling assignment of data to each antenna, etc., are managed by the baseband chip. Although the baseband chip assures the MIMO functions, developers and manufacturers of WLAN appliances must still test the MIMO WLAN technology during the development phase in an environment that is as realistic as possible while also considering ways to cut costs and tact time during the manufacturing phase, all the while ensuring quantitative measurement results. Slide45

49 MIMO measurements MIMO Function Features True MIMO Uses multiple TRX Test Modules to test WLAN MIMO devices. Sequential MIMO Tests MIMO device by switching four test ports on one TRx Test Module. Composite MIMO Uses an external splitter to synthesize MIMO device signal for testing with one TRX Test Module. Commercialization Decision Design Verification Prototyping Mass Production True MIMO Sequential MIMO Composite MIMO Slide48

50 True MIMO True MIMO transmitter testing requires a dedicated VSA for each spatial stream. Measurements for each stream are made in parallel. True MIMO receiver testing requires a dedicated VSG to generate each spatial stream. The transmitted packets must be sent in synchronicity. Slide49

51 Sequential MIMO Sequential MIMO transmitter testing is done by transmitting all spatial streams at once, capturing each stream in turn, and then calculating results for each stream. Sequential MIMO receiver testing with a single VSG is performed one antenna at a time using SISO packets. Slide50

52 Composite MIMO Composite MIMO transmitter testing is done by transmitting all spatial streams at once and combining them into a composite signal using a passive combiner. Results are calculated for the composite signal only. In composite MIMO receiver testing, each antenna is tested in turn using SISO packets. Slide51
