As of Tuesday, December 16, 2011, A-GPS Over-the-Air (OTA) device testing is mandatory per the CTIA’s Test Plan for Mobile Station Over the Air Performance. If you’re not ready now, let us show you how to get there.

Conducted-mode testing does not account for GPS antenna performance, and live network testing is not repeatable. On the other hand, lab-based OTA device testing is a key enabler of accurate GPS/A-GPS performance.

Spirent offers the industry’s most extensive range of GPS/A-GPS OTA device performance testing solutions so that the impacts of antenna placement, form factor, interference and more can easily be characterized under real-world conditions.

Automated, customizable testing offers the flexibility to change frequency bands, assistance data, required response time, accuracy and the number of test iterations, allowing you to reduce test times and tailor your testing to your specific needs.

As the recognized industry leader in GPS test and simulation systems, Spirent offers full support for both A-GPS and A-GLONASS OTA testing of CDMA, UMTS and LTE devices and chipsets. Fully validated A-GPS test solutions support a variety of OTA chambers (anechoic, reverberation or bench-top RF) and can be integrated with solutions from the industry’s leading chamber manufacturers. In addition, Spirent solutions offer performance testing that goes well beyond the standards to meet a wide range of testing requirements, including those for operator acceptance.
