Agilent Technologies introduced new receivers this week that simultaneously measure all wireless technologies in all radio frequency bands.
Together there are six new models for its W1314A measurement receiver platform. The receivers enable network equipment manufacturers and wireless operators' RF engineering teams to effectively deploy, optimize and troubleshoot all technologies in their own networks by quickly identifying coverage and interference problems. In addition, they offer the ability to assess how all competitive networks in the market compare from an overall coverage perspective, regardless of the technology they use.
Even in challenging environments such as urban canyons and underground roadways, Agilent's integrated 50 Channel High Sensitivity GPS receiver maintains its performance in reporting position and measurement data.
The new Agilent W1314A-Exx receivers include the ability to quickly troubleshoot handover and missing-neighbor issues, confirm coverage and pinpoint interference sources. They also can simultaneous monitoring of multi-band and multi-technology networks using a single compact solution, withstand the rough environment of field-based testing and significantly enhance position-reporting.
Agilent also demonstrated its portfolio of WiMAX and 3GPP LTE test solutions at CTIA this week. The portfolio includes: signal creation and analysis software that provides a complete solution for Wave 2 Mobile WiMAX and MIMO development; Wave 2 MIMO testing capability that demonstrates conformance test (PCT and pre-RCT), radiated performance test, end-to-end data transfer, and network entry/data connection; the recently introduced N8300A Wireless Networking Test Set for Wave 2 Mobile WiMAX Manufacturing Test; the Agilent J7910A signaling analyzer WiMAX solution; and the Agilent WiMAX Drive Test system.
