A method of testing radio equipment is disclosed herein. The method includes: receiving, by way of a radio channel test apparatus, a baseband signal representing I/Q data of one or more radio channels; processing, by way of the radio channel test apparatus, the baseband signal representing I/Q data according to one or more radio channel models; and transmitting, by way of the radio channel test apparatus, the processed baseband data representing I/Q data to a radio equipment under test.

Apparatus, system and method for testing radio equipment

A method of protocol processing including a main program code that has one or more code segments and instructions for processing different protocol elements of a data packet stream of a transport protocol is disclosed herein. The method includes assigning a latency requirement and/or bandwidth requirement to one or more of the code segments of the main program code; and compiling each of the code segments according to the assigned latency and/or bandwidth requirement into a respective target code for executing each of the target codes by different processors.

Method and system for protocol processing

A method is provided for generating test data for testing radio equipment. The method includes: determining, by a test apparatus, one or more beam identifiers; selecting, by the test apparatus, based on the one or more beam identifiers, one or more radio channel models; receiving, by the test apparatus, a baseband signal representing I/Q data of one or more beamforming antennas; processing, by the test apparatus, the baseband signal representing I/Q data according to the selected radio channel model; and transmitting, by the test apparatus, the processed baseband signal representing I/Q data to a radio equipment under test.

Testing of radio equipment

A method is provided for transmission rate adaptation of one or more data units, the method including: receiving, by an adapter, the adapter including an adaptation circuitry, a plurality of data units according to a first transmission rate and at least one delay character separating two consecutive data units; and transmitting, by the adapter, each of the plurality of data units received according to a second transmission rate, wherein the second transmission rate is determined based on the at least one delay character received.

Transmission rate adaptation

A single radio equipment test device includes a control unit for testing a plurality of antennas, (e.g., an antenna array). The control unit includes a first interface to operatively couple the control unit to an antenna under test, (e.g., arranged in a test chamber). The control unit further includes a second interface to operatively couple the control unit to a reference antenna, (e.g., also arranged in the test chamber). The control unit is configured to control and/or monitor the antenna under test and the reference antenna.

Radio equipment test device

A system for processing messages of a high rate data stream and an apparatus including: a message processor including a plurality of processor sub-modules and configured to read an input data stream, process the input data stream, and to output an output data stream; at least one payload memory storing data related to the input data stream and accessible to the message processor; at least one instruction memory accessible to the message processor and storing computer program instructions configuring the message processor to process the input data stream; and an application processor configured to rewrite the at least one instruction memory.

System for processing messages of data stream

A system for testing a base station apparatus includes a circuit board frame including a plurality of interfaces for a plurality of testing modules, and a central processing circuitry. The plurality of testing modules is detachably attachable to the interfaces, and each testing module comprises hardware that is configured to connect a determined interface of the base station apparatus and a reprogrammable processing circuitry. The central processing circuitry is configured to detect testing modules attached to the circuit board frame, determine a testing program to execute, and to program reprogrammable processing circuitries of the detected testing modules to execute testing functions of the testing program.
