    摘要: A system and method for testing a data packet signal transceiver in which multiple network addresses (e.g., media access control, or MAC, addresses) are used to establish synchronization of the device under test and the test equipment controlling the test. In accordance with an exemplary embodiment, synchronization is established using a first MAC address, following which testing is conducted using a second MAC address.

    摘要: A local oscillator (LO) of a test system is set to an initial frequency whereupon a device under test (DUT) transmits a radio frequency (RF) signal to the test system. Characteristics of the RF signal are measured with the test system and used to identify magnitudes and frequencies of spurious signal products. The LO of the test system is reset to one or more subsequent frequencies that are offset from the initial frequency. One or more subsequent RF signals are transmitted from the DUT to the test system, with the DUT maintaining its original signal settings. Characteristics of the subsequent RF signals are measured with the test system and used to identify magnitudes and frequencies of spurious signal products for each of the subsequent LO frequencies. The spurious signal products that have shifted in frequency for each of the subsequent LO frequencies as self-generated signal products can then be identified.

    摘要: An apparatus for testing a wireless communication device includes a receiver, a capture module, and a control module. The receiver receives at least one test packet transmitted from the wireless communication device. The capture module captures at least a portion of the at least one test packet. The control module selectively controls the capture module to capture at least the portion based on a predetermined test flow. In one example, the at least one test packet is transmitted by the wireless communication device according to the predetermined test flow. In one example, control module selectively controls the capture module to capture at least the portion based on an expected calibration value associated with the at least one test packet. In one example, the control module selectively controls the capture module to capture at least the portion based on a predetermined value of interest.

    摘要: Circuitry and method for reduce test time for wireless signal systems by using dynamic adaptive correction of DC offsets generated by the test instrument. The data signal is sampled for downstream processing including during pre-, inter-, or post-packet time intervals where no packet-data signal is occurring and where the device's power amplifier is turned off. The sampled data signal is measured for a DC offset occurring during these inter-packet time gaps. Compensating DC offset values are stored in a table indexed by frequency, gain and temperature range. When a subsequent test is carried out at that frequency, gain, and temperature range, the stored compensation value is used to correct the signal. DC offsets continue to be measured, stored and applied to captured signals, continuously refining the compensation values and decreasing the need for time-intensive calibrations. When a measured DC offset exceeds pre-determined limits, the instrument undergo a calibration step.
