Racal Instruments First to Offer Base Station Test System with EGPRS
Test Capability
March 22, 2003
Racal Instruments is to launch its 6113 EDGE BTS test system this
month, the first test system of its kind. EGPRS (EDGE) technology
is an attractive option for mobile phone vendors since it triples
conventional GPRS data rates without needing high levels of infrastructure
investment. As network operators convert base stations to become
'EDGE capable' there is the need to be able to test this functionality.
A feature that is unique to Racal's 6113 base station test system
is that it can test both the transmitter and receiver - conventional
systems test only the transmitter.
Unlike current test systems that require the base station to be
connected to the network, the model 6113 simulates the network so
testing can be carried out without base station connection. This
is a huge benefit; as with Racal's GSM solution, base stations will
be fully tested prior to them entering service, ensuring the smooth
and reliable rollout of an EDGE network.
Racal's 6113 has become the "industry standard" for base station
test equipment over the past decade. To date Racal Instruments has
delivered over 2000 units to customers around the world. Racal Instruments'
customer list includes major GSM infrastructure vendor and major
GSM Mobile phone service provider in the world.
The 6113 uses a multi-standard platform design. It is a compact,
highly portable test solution incorporating three testing capabilities.
It is able to simulate a mobile's transmitter to test the base station's
receiver capability; it can also measure the base station's transmissions
and verify the network command structures, which control the base
station.
