System Performs LTE Signaling Conformance

Sept. 30, 2010

The Agilent N6070A series signaling conformance test solution has been developed by Agilent Technologies for 3GPP Long Term Evolution (LTE) user equipment (UE). This innovative test solution is an essential tool for LTE developers needing to verify their protocol implementation and ensure reliable performance on LTE networks. The new solution allows operators to quickly deploy robust user equipment, such as smart phones and data cards. According to Guy Sene, Vice President and General Manager of Agilent's Microwave and Communications Division, "Agilent's new test solution goes beyond the traditional LTE development cycle. The new test solution is invaluable for development test, regression test, pre-conformance test, conformance test and network acceptance test." The solution includes a Windows-based user interface with TTCN-3 scripting environment to simplify configuring a wide range of network parameters.
