Tektronix has released two dedicated Mobile WiMAX (802.16e-2005) test
solutions: one for functional test and WiMAX infrastructure simulation
based on expanded capabilities to the G35-WiMAX solution; and one for
monitoring purposes based on the Tektronix Network and Service Analyzer
(NSA) platform.
The latter adds troubleshooting and performance analysis capabilities to
ensure the delivery of high quality and leading edge WiMAX solutions. |

Introduced in October
2006, Tektronix' G35-WiMAX solution has since proven its value in
equipment manufacturer labs by enabling accelerated time-to-market and
reduced time and development costs through the monitoring and in-depth
decoding of R1 and R6 interfaces. With the introduction of R1 and R3
simulation on the G35-WiMAX, Tektronix completes the portfolio. High
performance and complex monitoring requirements of stress tests, field
trials and real network deployments are met by the Mobile WiMAX
multi-interface call trace and statistics on the NSA software and the
Tektronix K18 portable probe form factor.
Expanding the Mobile WiMAX solution to Tektronix' established Network
and Service Analyser platform provides full visibility into lab and live
network traffic through multi-interface traffic analysis tools, which
isolate root causes of network and service problems.
The WiMAX NSA supports end-to-end traffic analysis by correlating
protocol traces on the R1 interface, multiple MSS and on the R6 and R3
interfaces. The multi-interface call trace for Mobile WiMAX saves time
and effort in troubleshooting because calls of individual MSS are
isolated. Full data capture is guaranteed under the most severe load
conditions.
RSA-IQWIMAX offers continuous signal analysis of WiMAX waveforms
captured by the RSA3408A realtime spectrum analyser, including EVM and
spectral measurements. The system's ability to trigger, capture and
analyse WiMAX bursts improves the designer's time-to-insight. |
