A test system comprises a device under test and a testing device. The device under test comprises a first initiation unit, wherein the first initiation unit is configured to generate a first wireless initiation signal. The initiation signal consists of at least one of electromagnetic waves and sound waves, wherein the initiation signal comprises a first test command. The testing device comprises a first sensor unit, wherein the first sensor unit is configured to receive the initiation signal via the first sensor unit. The testing device is configured to generate a first electromagnetic test signal based on the first test command.

Test system and method for testing a device under test

A test equipment is provided for over the air tests on a device under test, in particular a user equipment, having a shielded space, at least one signal antenna for transmitting and receiving cellular signals arranged in the shielded space, and a plurality of noise antennas arranged in the shielded space linked in an array configured to create Additive White Gaussian Noise. The noise antennas are equally distributed in three dimensions within the shielded space. Further, a method for testing a device under test is shown.

An error rate test method is disclosed. The error rate test method comprises the following steps. At least one test signal with a predetermined frequency is received from at least one device under test. A symbol sequence comprised in the at least one test signal is determined. At least one error quantity being associated with the at least one device under test and the at least one test signal is determined based on the determined symbol sequence, wherein the at least one error quantity determined is indicative of a rate of erroneous symbols comprised in the symbol sequence. Respective error quantities are determined simultaneously for at least one of multiple devices under test and for multiple different predetermined frequencies. Further, a test system for testing a device under test is disclosed.

A measurement system for multiple antenna measurements is provided. The measurement system comprises a device under test, at least two measurement antennas, and an anechoic chamber. In this context, the at least two measurement antennas are arranged on at least one wall of the anechoic chamber.

Measurement system and method for multiple antenna measurements

A method for downlink power tests of a device under test comprising: generating a downlink signal with a predefined downlink power level in a quiet zone at the device under test; measuring a first absolute power level received by the device under test; determining whether the measured first power level lies within a predefined first range; repeatedly measuring subsequent power levels received by the device under test; and determining by the control unit whether the measured subsequent power levels lie within a predefined second range around the measured first power level with respect to the current downlink power level. Further, a test system and a test setup for downlink power tests are shown.

A multi-antenna test system is provided. The multi-antenna test system includes a device under test and at least four antenna devices. The at least four antenna devices are spaced apart in a fixed angular relationship with respect to the device under test to create different certain angular relations between each pair of the at least four antenna devices.

Multi-antenna test system and method

A testing method for testing mobile communication devices comprises measuring a three-dimensional antenna pattern of an active phased antenna array (AAS) of the mobile communication device, with the AAS being maintained at a specific beamforming alignment during the measurement. A predefined base fading profile is calibrated with the measured three-dimensional antenna pattern to obtain an optimized fading profile adapted to the specific beamforming alignment. A channel model for emulation of a base station is emulated on the basis of the optimized fading profile. The method further involves performing a receiver test on the mobile communication device using the emulated channel model. The testing method may in some embodiments be a radiated two-stage over-the-air (RTS-OTA) testing method.
