1 MD8470A Signalling Tester Mobile communications network on the desk Excellent Eco Product Lightweight Power saving

2 Global Mobile Communications Network Realized on the Desks of Wireless Application Developers In today s wireless communication market, packet data services and third generation systems are growing globally. Factors for succeeding in the wireless communication business are shifting from basic communication technology to the ability to plan and develop attractive mobile devices and services. The MD8470A supports wireless application engineers in accelerating the development and reducing the test cycle of these ever-increasing product and service requirements. A single platform implements functional testing of UE applications such as voice communications, video calling and contents download. Call processing is performed by simple operations (W-CDMA: Voice/Video call/packet; GSM: Voice; GPRS: Packet) Supports multiple communication systems (W-CDMA, GSM/GPRS). Wide frequency coverage (400 MHz to 2.7 GHz). 2

3 Features Single platform implements functional testing of UE applications such as voice communications, video calling and contents download. The MD8470A Signalling Tester offers the optimum solution for mobile UE application development. It supports the processes required for various application developments such as voice communications, packet communications including browser/contents download, video calling and end-to-end UE communications (requires two sets of MD8470A). Also, the PPP server function is incorporated. The MD8470A serves as an effective tool for establishing an integrated simulation environment in application development. In addition, Ethernet, ISDN, handset and serial I/O interfaces are provided for various data communication services. Configuration for application tests Mobile UE RF Handset (For Voice Call Test) Handset Connect to application server function in the built-in PC of MD8470A Video Call Terminal Ethernet ISDN Application Server (For Packet Communication Test) 3

4 Features Call processing realized by simple operations W-CDMA: Voice/Video call/packet GSM: Voice, GPRS: Packet The MD8470A Signalling Tester supports basic call processing scenarios for W-CDMA (Voice Communications/Video call/ Packet Communications), GSM (Voice Communications), and GPRS (Packet Communications). Simple operations implement the simulation environment required for application tests. Platform Architecture Multiple communication system support W-CDMA, GSM/GPRS The MD8470A Signalling Tester is compliant with GSM/GPRS and W-CDMA standards that are the world's major 2.5G and 3G mobile communication systems. Also, since a wide frequency band (400 to 2700 MHz) is covered seamlessly, it can easily support the development of multiband mobile UE and the frequency expansion of systems in the future. Since the baseband processing is configured by DSPs and other programmable devices, MD8470A will be able to provide flexible support for additional functions in the future. The base station simulator function is accomplished by installing the communication system hardware and the control software. The Windows operating system provides the user interface, so simulations can be controlled without using a remote PC. (A 10.4-inch display and Windows XP Professional operating system are installed.) :Windows is a registered trademark of Microsoft Corporation in the United States and other countries. The chassis is designed with a small footprint so developers can use it in their personal simulation environments. (Depth: 281 mm, Width: 426 mm, Height: mm) 4

5 Overview The MD8470A Signalling Tester supports the simulations of various call processing status and service environments by operating as an artificial mobile communications network on the desks of wireless application developers. MX847010A W-CDMA/GSM Simulation Kit Application tests implemented with simple operations WNS: Wireless Network Simulator WNS (Wireless Network Simulator) is a software application that simulates an interactive mobile network on the MD8470A. WNS activates the required communication bearers based on requests by the UE and easily implements an end-to-end test environment for application developers. Users can set up basic call processing parameters with GUI-based operation. The call processing status can be displayed graphically. Also, call origination and termination is controlled using a virtual terminal in WNS. WNS (Wireless Network Simulator) Main Functions of WNS Supported Bearers Setup parameters Other functions W-CDMA GSM/GPRS Common W-CDMA: Voice (MO/MT), Packet (MO/MT), Video Call (MO/MT), MultiCall GSM/GPRS: Voice (MO/MT), Packet (MO/MT) Client IP address setting/server IP address setting/router connection setting Level setting W-CDMA Channel setting Registration Type setting Activation Time setting (Voice, Packet, Video, MultiCall) GSM/GPRS USIM Frequency band setting (GSM450, GSM480, GSM850, P-GSM900, E-GSM900, R-GSM900, DCS1800, PCS1900)/ARFCN (CCH, TCH) GPRS Multi Slot setting (DL1/UL1, DL2/UL1, DL3/UL1, DL4/UL1, DL1/UL2, DL2/UL2, DL3/UL2) Cording Scheme (CS1, CS2, CS3, CS4) USIM parameter setting (MCC, MNC, USIM_MODE, K, RAND, AUTN, IK) Edit and transmission of SMS/Display of received SMS (7-bit ASCII) State transition diagram for call processing/cs/ps Attach status indicator BTS output power setting by GUI MO/MT (manual and auto answer) operation by virtual terminal Caller ID with presentation condition setup DTMF checking by tone and display Simulation control by scenarios W-CDMA, GSM/GPRS execution and analysis of simulations The MD8470A Signalling Tester runs simulations by loading edited and compiled scenarios into the dedicated control software and executing them. The information being controlled during simulations, protocol messages, and user data exchanged between a mobile UE under test and a MD8470A are logged in real time. After the test, simulation results can be analyzed with the protocol message decode function (RRC, NAS [RR, CC, MM, GMM, SM], SMS, SS [Supplementary Service], Config) and the filtering function. Simulation control software 5

6 Application Overview Application test examples Voice test Voice communication testing can be performed between a mobile UE and a handset by connecting a handset (standard accessory) to the MD8470A. Voice communication testing by loopback can also be performed by voice data loopback in the MD8470A. Video call testing Video and voice communication testing is performed between a mobile UE and a video call terminal by connecting the video call terminal to the MD8470A. (The MU847090A ISDN Interface Unit is required when using an external video call terminal.) Video communication loopback testing can also be performed by video and voice data loopback in the MD8470A. ISDN interface RF connection Handset interface MD8470A Mobile UE Handset Video call terminal Packet communication testing Application functions that use packet communications can be tested on a single platform by installing the application server function in the MD8470A s built-in PC.
