At the Mobile World Congress 2014, telecom test and measurement company Azimuth Systems will demonstrate VoLTE testing to assure quality of experience and network optimization.
New testing methods such as Multi-Link Scenario Application, Device-Network Analytics and Intelligent-Over-The-Air will be showcased at MWC 2014.
Azimuth Systems is trying to leverage market opportunities in the VoLTE space which will be launched by several telecom operators.
In a bid to offer expanded scope of testing at lower incremental cost, Azimuth will be showing solutions designed in collaboration with telecom operators and manufacturers to improve testing of new network and device features such as Carrier Aggregation and VoLTE, using methods such as Multi-Link Scenario Application, Device-Network Analytics and Intelligent-Over-The-Air.
Azimuth Systems says MSA reduces test development. It selects a Coverage Map and Mobility Path to define the CA test case; MSA then executes algorithms to compute frequency-adjusted link characteristics which are available for immediate playback.
In addition, its bi-directional capabilities will ensure that the device’s uplink closely emulates real-world power control and signaling behaviors.
Azimuth’s VoLTE solution automates the essential user experience applications on smartphones, including voice, messaging, data and video. This apart, it enables synchronized testing and diagnostic logging of multiple devices.
Analyzes, visualizes and correlates metrics from user experience to device performance and network conditions, including access, connectivity, mobility and PHY/MAC
Its Intelligent Over-The-Air (iOTA) enhances OTA testing, by going beyond antenna measurements to benchmark multiple devices and predict performance in market; replaying field RF conditions captured during drive testing for more relevant scenarios; automating essential user applications such as messaging, browsing and video streaming; and facilitating root cause analysis rather than just a pass/fail measurement.
