TD-LTE, Time
Division Duplex version of the LTE technology provides asymmetric use of
unpaired spectrum allocated to next generation cellular networks. As
such, TD-LTE is expected to become a leading cellular communications
standard for the next decade, specially in China, and first network
rollout is expected to happen during 2010.
“TD-LTE is gaining a lot momentum day-by-day. With the addition of
TD-LTE signalling capabilities to the E2010 Broadband Wireless Test Set,
AT4 wireless LTE test systems will be able to cover both LTE-FDD and
TD-LTE versions in the same platform, switching from one to the other
with a simple, automated, software swap.”, said Alejandro Torrecilla,
Business Development Manager of AT4 wireless.
On the other side, the expected increase in LTE multi-mode devices to
support connectivity with legacy technologies makes inter-RAT a key
aspect when testing LTE devices. “As in the case of former multi-mode
UMTS devices, inter-RAT with legacy technologies must be tested for both
protocol and RRM in LTE devices.” continued Alejandro Torrecilla.
“Traditionally, inter-RAT enabled test systems required differentiated
hardware for the emulation of each specific RAT and this fact increased
complexity and cost. With the inclusion of 3GPP UMTS signalling
capabilities in the E2010 Broadband Wireless Test Set, AT4 wireless
eliminates the need for specific hardware configurations, simplifying
inter-RAT test systems architectures and minimizing total system cost.”
