Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) has
announced that Bluetest AB now supports Agilent's PXT wireless communications
test set. The Bluetest RTS (Reverberation Test System) uses the Agilent PXT
test set to evaluate LTE devices over the air.
OTA testing of LTE user equipment is
essential to evaluate and prove performance prior to commercial deployment.
Bluetest offers a range of fast and accurate solutions to these measurement
challenges.
"The performance of our
measurement systems relies heavily on the capability of the test equipment we
support, so we are pleased to announce that, in working closely with Agilent,
we now offer this complete solution to our customers," said Kjell
Olovsson, CEO of Bluetest. "Our compact RTS offers high-speed and
high-performance OTA measurements that provide accurate and repeatable
results."
"We are delighted that Bluetest
chose to integrate the Agilent PXT wireless communications test set," said
Andy Botka, vice president and general manager of Agilent's Microwave and
Communications Division. "This expands the application coverage of the
PXT, and really helps our mutual customers to get quality products to market
quickly."
The Bluetest RTS is an accurate and
cost-effective reverberation test system used to verify wireless devices and
small antennas over the air. Bluetest's unique patented technology enables the
user to perform MIMO OTA tests in an isotropic multipath environment. Bluetest offers
measurement options for all cellular standards and many other wireless
communication protocols. Easy and fast maintenance, calibration and measurement
setup give the user the opportunity to minimize time to market. Users can
perform TRP, TIS and throughput tests faster with Bluetest RTS than with any
other solution.
The Agilent PXT wireless communication test set represents
a significant breakthrough in testing LTE user equipment. It incorporates
flexible base station/network emulation and RF parametric tests into one
integrated unit and extends Agilent's unmatched portfolio of LTE test solutions for
development and verification. The PXT hardware is configurable with a number of
advanced test and analysis software options.
