This article delves into the concept of customizing wireless tests system design in order to reduce capital equipment costs and increase ROI.
Whether mobile devices, Internet of Things, or industrial RF applications, the world runs on wireless. As a result, wireless testing is more important than ever before. But how do you balance thoroughness, speed, and budgets? Quipping "pick any two of the three" isn't a good answer. Testing must be thorough, fast enough to keep up with getting to market, and yet within tight budgets.
With this whitepaper, readers will gain an understanding of which design decisions can dramatically increase or decrease costs when designing a wireless test system.
