Azimuth and Anite Join to Develop a Test Solution for 3G Cellular Systems

By Shamila Janakiraman, TMCnet Contributor


Azimuth Systems, a provider of wireless broadband test equipment and channel emulators, has announced a partnership agreement with Anite, a provider of testing technology for the wireless industry.


The two companies said they will develop a comprehensive test solution to allow the usage of cellular data throughput testing with fading - which allows replication of propagation conditions that mobile devices encounter during usage.

The integration and automation of Azimuth’s ACE MX Universal Channel Emulator with Anite’s SAS (News - Alert) test platform will expand test coverage for operators as channel emulation is imperative for conformance, performance and interoperability test cases.

Azimuth’s ACE MX channel emulator is a testing solution suitable for LTE and WiMAX (News - Alert) systems which employ MIMO and OFDM technologies. It also provides backwards-compatible channel emulation features to test 2G/3G cellular products and supports all industry-standard bands and channel models the ACE MX - suitable for advanced channel modeling and propagation conditions.

“Our partnership with Anite (News - Alert) ensures that customers will be provided with best-in-class technology to meet their 3G cellular testing needs,” said Peter Paglia, vice president of worldwide sales and business development at Azimuth Systems (News - Alert).

“As field testing is time-consuming, not accurately repeatable and expensive, this combined solution will provide the perfect marriage of laboratory testing under real world conditions, allowing Azimuth and Anite customers to ensure the quality and interoperability of new handsets, while saving both time and money,” Paglia said.
 
Earlier this year, Azimuth and Anite launched their WiMAX Performance Tester which combines the Azimuth ACE Channel emulator and an Anite base station emulator to help users run conformance and custom test cases on subscriber stations exhibiting different RF channel conditions.
