Test System Simulates LTE Fading Profiles Aeroflex is introducing a one-box test system for mobile phone signal fading simulation to speed up real-world testing of mobile handsets for LTE (Long-Term Evolution) networks. Integrated within the 7100 Series digital radio test set, the new fading simulator option offers RF engineers an inexpensive and reliable baseband tool for signal fading profiling, a requirement for LTE certification. Until now, testing and simulating LTE fading profiles meant buying and cabling together two separate test instruments. By integrating the LTE fading simulator into the 7100 Series, Aeroflex saves customers the cost of purchasing additional test equipment and circumvents potential calibration errors that cause faulty test results. In addition, customers can be confident in the repeatability of the fading profiles, said Phil Medd, product manager at Aeroflex Test Solutions. Fading simulators, combined with noise generators, modify RF signals transmitted by t...
