Aeroflex TM500 TD-LTE mobile test
tool achieved hand-off between multiple base stations
Aeroflex has announced its TM500 TD-LTE mobile test tool
has achieved hand-off between multiple TD-LTE base stations.
"The TM500 TD-LTE's ability to support hand-off between
multiple base stations allows network infrastructure equipment
vendors to fully demonstrate true TD-LTE network mobility
for the first time," said Ross Broadhurst, business
development manager for the Aeroflex TM500 TD-LTE. "Demonstrating
mobility is fundamentally important to the realization of
base station vendors' ongoing development and sales plans.
It also further underlines Aeroflex's leadership position
in global LTE test."
TD-LTE is the Time Division Duplex version of LTE and an
evolution of existing TD-SCDMA technology. It allows the
efficient allocation of downlink resources and opens up
the unpaired spectrum for LTE.
"The TM500 TD-LTE is proving an invaluable test tool
in accelerating the base station development programs of
the network infrastructure vendors we have been working
with on the mobility trials," said Stephen Hire, director
of marketing for Aeroflex Asia. "Fast becoming the
TD-LTE test mobile of choice, it ensures that base station
vendors have the earliest access to the latest 3GPP functionality,
providing the layered operation and extensive analytical
data they need to meet their development objectives."
The TM500 TD-LTE's extensive Layer 1, Layer 2 and higher
layer test features provide complete visibility even into
the lowest layers of the radio modem by generating the detailed
diagnostic data needed to verify the required functionality
and optimize network operation and performance. With support
for MIMO and 20MHz channel bandwidths, UE CAT4 support of
150Mbit/s downlink data rates, multi-UE operation and now
handover testing, it enables comprehensive development and
test support of base station and network infrastructure
for the next generation of Chinese mobile technology.
