CS8 is the perfect testing solution for every stage of the device design cycle. Now both efficient ease of use and the most realistic replication of the live cellular network are available in the mobile device design lab for Design Verification Testing (DVT).

With CS8, you’ll start testing in minutes (rather than spending a week modifying scripts). You’ll learn to automate in hours instead of weeks, and you’ll do all of it with network emulation that’s more realistic than ever before.

What to Test

CS8 - What to test

Spirent Solutions

  • Spirent’s MIMO-OTA Environment Builder lets you manage intricate MIMO-OTA testing via simplified graphical controls; some of the world’s leading authorities in MIMO-OTA testing have already done the hard work for you
  • Spirent’s VDT – Conversion Tool software converts raw data from a cellular scanner for use with the SR5500. Proprietary Spirent technology then creates an RF channel that is actually more realistic than the raw scanned data

    Benefits

    CS8 Benefits

    • Reduced development time— With efficient development and debugging tools for the R&D team; CS8 can reduce product development time by weeks
    • Optimize data service capabilities —Test with real payload data, not dummy packets ... even when you're testing high-speed throughput and IPv6
    • Maximize Return on Investment —Cost-effective, scalable test platform minimizes long-term spending and brings value to every stage of the product life-cycle … from early-stage development all the way to operator acceptance and deployment

    Documents

    • CS8 Wireless Device Design Tester Overview DatasheetSpirent’s CS8 Wireless Device Design Tester is the perfect testing platform for developers of LTE, UMTS, CDMA and multi-mode UEs and MS’s. A single hardware platform can be used in every stage of mobile device development.
    • CS8 Protocol Tester DatasheetThe CS8 Protocol Tester is a suite of tools and utilities that help User Equipment (UE) and mobile device chipset developers address increasingly rapid evolutions of wireless technology. It expedites development and prevents low-layer bugs from ever making it out of the R&D lab.
    • CS8 Wireless Device Design Tester for System Design and Platform Testing DatasheetCS8’s state-machine-based real-time protocol processing provides the world’s most advanced and realistic platform for system-level UE and chipset-platform testing.
    • One-Stop-Shop for VoLTE TestingOffering a complete portfolio of testing capabilities from UE development to automated device acceptance, Spirent’s VoLTE testing solutions ease the challenges in designing and deploying mobiles devices that implement this complex and important technology.

    White Papers

    • IMS Architecture: The LTE User Equipment PerspectiveThis paper provides an overview of IMS, its architecture and applications from the perspective of LTE User Equipment (UE. It also provides a look at the evolution to a data-only LTE network and includes a discussion of the challenges and requirements to support delivery of voice services (including VoLTE) over an all-IP network.
    • IMS Procedures and Protocols: The LTE User Equipment PerspectiveThis reference guide provides an intuitive introduction to IMS procedures and protocols, focusing on those concepts most relevant to the UE designer.
    • VoLTE Deployment and the Radio Access Network: The LTE User Equipment PerspectiveThe combination of IMS, SIP and RAN ultimately provides the “carrier-grade” VoLTE experience. This white paper identifies new and necessary RAN features and discusses how each improves the quality of VoLTE service.
