Agilent Technologies offers 1xEV-DV test solution for 3G chipset designers
April 22, 2003
Agilent Technologies introduced the industry's first 1xEV-DV (1x evolution
-- data and voice) testing solution for designers of dual-mode chipsets
for 1xEV-DV and cdma2000 3G technologies. This new product, targeted for
3G chipset designers, extends Agilent's offerings in both wireless design
and manufacturing test solutions to support 1xEV technology.
1xEV-DV is the next stage of the cdma2000 3G format, permitting allocation
of bandwidth on demand and the ability to support simultaneous performance
of both voice and data traffic on the same device. The ability to integrate
voice and high-speed data packet services such as video, video-conferencing,
and other multimedia services will help propel the industry into the next
wave of wireless subscriber growth. Wireless network equipment manufacturers
are expected to begin 1xEV-DV interoperability testing and field trials
in the third quarter of 2003.
The new Agilent Signal Studio for 1xEV-DV and cdma2000 software (E4438C-414)
works with the Agilent E4438C ESG vector signal generator, giving mobile
chipset designers a flexible test and verification tool based upon 3GPP2
standards (C.S0002-C). With this solution, designers do not have to hand-code
their own signals for this new technology, significantly reducing development
time and costs for early chip development said the company.
Signal Studio for 1xEV-DV and cdma2000 provides continuous transmissions
of the 1xEV-DV and cdma2000 channels necessary for testing mobile receivers
for sensitivity and packet or frame error rate, as well as baseband testing
of receiver application specific integrated circuits (ASICs). The software
application includes four new 1xEV-DV forward link channels: two short-duration,
fully coded packet data channels (PDCH) and two real-time packet data
control channels (PDCCH), in addition to forward and reverse link cdma2000
voice channels. This capability allows designers to
-- simulate multiple voice and data users simultaneously;
-- emulate multiple active data channels and sub-packets;
-- test wireless device capability for making packet error or frame error
ratio (PER/FER) measurements; and
-- save setup time with over 100 pre-defined radio configurations.
