FLEET, England, September 15, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --
Anite's complete
validation coverage enables device and chipset
manufacturers to verify conformance to
3GPP performance test requirements
Anite, a global leader in wireless equipment testing technology,
today announced that PTCRB[1] has
approved Anite's LTE data throughput test cases for device
certification testing. Users can easily access these test cases
(approved at the PVG#70 meeting in Sweden earlier this month) from Anite's
Conformance Toolset. The approved test cases enable device and
chipset manufacturers to verify the data throughput performance of
new devices prior to market introduction.
Conformance Toolset supports all
3GPP[2] LTE data throughput test
cases and provides full PTCRB coverage to date. The Global
Certification Forum (GCF[3]) also
requires LTE data throughput performance testing based on the same
test cases. This means that results achieved for PTCRB approval can
also be used for GCF device certification, thus minimising the
testing required to gain mobile operator approval for new
devices.
Prior to test case validation, the PTCRB Validation Group (PVG)
undertook an extensive review of test results presented on various
test platforms using a range of devices. Anite's Conformance
Toolset scored very highly in all of the key metrics reported,
including average data throughput, deviation from maximum
theoretical throughput and consistency of results.
Anite's fully automated Conformance Toolset solution uses the
internal baseband fading capabilities of the Anite 9000 network
simulator, enabling existing users to easily and cost-effectively
access the new PTRCB data throughput test cases. Anite's
Conformance Toolset is recognised as the industry's most
comprehensive protocol conformance test solution, offering
market-leading coverage for device certification.

Partnership Project (3GPP) unites seven telecommunications standard
development organisations and provides their members with a stable
environment to produce the Reports and Specifications that define
3GPP technologies.
