PCTEST Lab Expands Testing Capabilities

PCTEST Engineering Laboratory, a provider of wireless testing and certification, has upgraded its R&S TS8980FTA-2 and R&S CMW500 systems to accommodate the new 4G/LTE test plans for industry conformance.

According to the company, as IMS becomes more relevant within mobile operator core networks, this means new features such as VoLTE, Rich Communication Services (RCS) and video telephony are being added to devices.  This enables manufactures to differentiate their products and create new revenue streams.

“Today’s mobile communications market is moving extremely fast. Many of the barriers that impeded the growth of mobile communications such as bandwidth, processing power and battery life are quickly becoming a thing of the past,” says Randy Ortanez, president of PCTEST Lab. “Today we are seeing a new wave of mobile phones and devices driven by the latest technology advancements that require sophisticated test plans and systems to adequately ensure their quality. Rohde & Schwarz is helping us meet that challenge with their breadth of solution offering and support.”
