20150304870 | Plane Wave Generation Within A Small Volume Of Space For Evaluation of Wireless Devices - Small anechoic chambers for evaluating a wireless device under test (DUT) are characterized by a set of antennas to which a test signal is applied and for which excitation coefficients are applied such that the test signal approximates a single plane wave or a preselected superposition of plane waves in the near field of the antennas. The test-equipment antennas in the chamber may be as close as one wavelength from the boundary of a test zone in which the DUT is disposed. Hence, the test zone can be in the near field of the test-equipment antennas and the test zone can be less than a wavelength from the chamber walls. Consequently, it is possible to perform tests in a small anechoic chamber that previously required a large anechoic chamber, e.g., advanced spatial channel-model tests and antenna-pattern measurements. | 10-22-2015 |
20150025818 | SYNCHRONIZED TESTING OF MULTIPLE WIRELESS DEVICES - A plurality of wireless devices which communicate with at least one other device are simultaneously tested using a test regime which includes a plurality of tasks. At least one device synchronizes commencement of each task by all wireless devices. At least one device logs performance measurements of each wireless device for each task. Because the wireless devices begin each task at the same time the resulting log files facilitate per-task performance analysis for each wireless device. | 01-22-2015 |
20150023188 | COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF WIRELESS DEVICES - A plurality of wireless devices which communicate with at least one other device are simultaneously tested using a test regime which includes a plurality of corresponding comparative tasks. Commencement of each task by all wireless devices is synchronized. Test results are analyzed and a side-by-side comparison is provided on an overall, per task type, and per task basis. | 01-22-2015 |
20150017928 | OVER-THE-AIR TESTING OF WIRELESS DEVICES USING LOG FILES - An over-the-air test system for wireless devices uses log files to simulate realistic time-varying channel conditions and provides channel state information to enable dynamic adaptation to current channel conditions. A signal transmission device transmits test signals to the device under test via a channel emulator. The channel emulator causes the test signals to exhibit channel conditions which vary over time. An over-the-air test chamber in which the device under test is disposed includes multiple antennas which are driven with the test signals from the channel emulator. Channel state information is sent from the device under test to the signal transmission device. The signal transmission device responds to the channel state information by adapting to current channel conditions. | 01-15-2015 |
20150016290 | SMALL CELL INTERFERENCE EMULATOR - A heterogeneous network scenario is simulated using a combination of real cells, real user devices, and a multi-cell network emulator which provides emulated cells, emulated real devices, and channel emulation. The multi-cell network emulator may utilize playback files and signals from the real cells and real user devices to generate emulated cell signals and emulated real device signals. Further, a single real signal can be utilized to generate multiple emulated signals. | 01-15-2015 |
20140086079 | System Level Emulation of TD-SCDMA Wireless Networks - A wireless network emulation system undersamples log files when the conditions represented in the log files would require a faster refresh rate than the channel emulator can provide. A representative sample may be selected based on number of channel taps, delay spread, maximum value, or being first, last or otherwise identifiable within a group. The RF information from the selected sample is utilized as being representative of a group of related samples for a given time period corresponding to the refresh rate of the channel emulator. | 03-27-2014 |
20140024318 | MODIFYING LOG FILES AND PLAYBACK FILES USED FOR WIRELESS NETWORK EMULATION - Missing or unwanted parameter data indicative of wireless network conditions in a log file or playback file is replaced with substitute parameter data. The substitute parameter data can be calculated based on other data in the log file or playback file, selected from pre-defined data in storage, and provided by a user. The substitute parameter data may also be customized by the user via an interface. | 01-23-2014 |
