Leading American Mobile Operator Adopts Anite's LTE-Advanced Interoperability Test Cases
FLEET, England, September 24, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
Anite's SAS provides operator with a wide range of carrier aggregation
testing capability
Anite, a global leader in wireless equipment testing technology, today announced that
a leading American mobile operator has implemented Anite test scripts for the
qualification of LTE-Advanced (LTE-A) devices in its rigorous acceptance programme. Device
and chipset manufacturers use the LTE-A testing capability within SAS, Anite's
interoperability testing solution, to accelerate acceptance of new LTE-A devices by the
operator.
These test cases assess the protocol signalling related to LTE-A Carrier Aggregation
(CA). Key industry players are already preparing for LTE-A, the next stage in mobile
telecommunications, which will allow operators to offer wireless services equivalent to
'fibre to your phone'. LTE-A CA enables mobile operators to achieve superior data rates
through combining spectrum resources.
Anite's SAS provides mobile operators and device manufacturers with greater confidence
as they prepare a new device for launch. Proven to cut device test time by 50% compared to
performing similar tests in the field, SAS is also recognised for supporting a large
number of Tier-1 operator device acceptance programmes.
Anite has recently made several announcements related to its achievements within
LTE-Advanced: In February, Anite announced that it had achieved peak data rates with
commercial devices for LTE-A Carrier Aggregation. Last month, Anite was first to release a
verified eICIC enriched LTE-Advanced device testing solution. Finally, Anite has achieved
validation for the most number of LTE-Advanced (LTE-A) Carrier Aggregation (CA) protocol
test cases by the PTCRB (a wireless device certification forum led by North American
mobile operators). These accomplishments highlight the advanced capability of the Anite
9000, Anite's network simulator platform for lab-based device testing, which is used by
the industry to execute development, conformance, interoperability and performance
testing.
"Anite's cutting-edge technology roadmap is a cornerstone to its key partnerships with
leading mobile operators," says Paul Beaver, Products Director at Anite. He continues,
"This additional significant milestone will help to accelerate new highly capable devices
to market."
