Application Software for MD8480C W-CDMA Signalling Tester

MX785201A W-CDMA Protocol Test System (PTS) Test and Verification Tools for 3G Wireless Products

The MD8480C W-CDMA Signaling Tester is used with the

MX785201A PTS Core Software to configure a measurement
system for Layer 3 and Layer 2 signalling protocols defined by the
Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP). The PTS is designed
for testing 3G W-CDMA UE signalling protocols.

MX786201A W-CDMA Rapid Test Designer (RTD) Interoperability and Behavior

The MX786201A RTD is a revolutionary software tool that

significantly speeds up testing of W-CDMA devices by simplifying
RTD Tool test creation, execution, and analysis.
It uses an intuitive and interactive GUI environment for designing
test cases, coupled with an expert system to guide the user through
the complexity of 3GPP protocols. The GUI offers easy access to a
comprehensive library of procedural building blocks that can be
placed on-screen to assemble tests. The building blocks are
configured by setting the parameters.
The procedure library has many standard procedures that can be
MD8480C used either unchanged or with minor parameter changes to set the
UE UE to the required test state. This allows the tester to focus on
specific problem areas using knowledge of 3GPP networks rather
than test concepts.

MG3700A
For Testing HSDPA/HSUPA Receiver Characteristics
Vector Signal Generator

The MX370101A HSDPA/HSUPA IQproducer is GUI-driven PC

application software for setting parameters and generating waveform
patterns for 3GPP HSDPA/HSUPA (Uplink/Downlink) systems.
The generated waveform patterns are downloaded to the MG3700A
and used to output baseband and RF signals using the MG3700A
ARB generation function.
Four channel parameters are supported for HSPA: HS-PDSCH and
HS-DPCCH for HSDPA, and E-DPDCH and E-DPCCH for HSUPA.
Additionally, the HARQ process can also be set at the HARQ process
file, while CRC errors can be set at each HSUPA sub-frame for
effective function checks.
The Downlink Easy Setup function supports typical parameter sets
and makes setting as easy as selecting from a menu.
