E1999A-202 Enhanced Fast Device Tune
For use with the 8960 Series 10 (E5515C)
Wireless Communications Test Set
Product Overview
Reduce wireless device
calibration test time by
an order of magnitude
If you’ve been searching for a faster
calibration method to reduce the
manufacturing test time of wireless
devices and decrease the cost of test,
consider this: the E1999A-201 and the
E1999A-202 are software options for the
E5515C test set, offering wireless device
calibration test times that are an order of
magnitude faster than traditional methods.
E1999A-201 is a companion application
that augments Agilent’s GSM/GPRS, W-
CDMA, cdma2000^®, and 1xEV-DO test
applications and is designed to reduce
manufacturing test times of wireless
devices by minimizing calibration time,
without compromising quality or
measurement accuracy.
E1999A-202 is a superset of E1999A-201. It
not only offers the equivalent capabilities
of E1999A-201, but also further enhanced
to reduce the calibration test times for the
W-CDMA, cdma2000 and 1xEV-DO
wireless devices with smaller step size
supported (10 ms step size versus 20 ms
step size). There is no change for the
GSM/GPRS/EGPRS calibration.
For example, a typical W-CDMA device
calibration using Fast Device Tune can be
completed in 14~15 seconds with 20ms
step size and in 8~9 seconds with 10ms
step size.
The Fast Device Tune measurement allows
the simultaneous calibration of wireless
device’s transmitter output power and
receiver input level across level and
frequency in a single sweep per frequency
band. With a wireless device in test mode,
the user forces the device to transmit a
predefined series of power steps at various
uplink frequencies, and forces the device
to simultaneously tune its receiver to
perform measurement, such as RSSI, of
the test set’s signal at various downlink
frequencies and power levels.
Features and Benefits
• Multiple technologies available with one
license
» Available for GSM/GPRS/EGPRS, W-
CDMA, cdma2000, and 1xEV-DO
• Slashes calibration time
» Can reduce W-CDMA, cdma2000, or
1xEV-DO device calibration times by
10x (if using E1999A-201) or 18x (if
using E1999A-202) typically,
compared with “traditional”
calibration methods
» Can reduce GSM/GPRS device
calibration times by 6x typically
compared with “traditional”
calibration methods (there is no
difference between E1999A-201 and
E1999A-202 for GSM/GPRS/EGPRS)
• Reduces manufacturing costs per
wireless device by reducing
manufacturing test time
• Supports the leading chipsets/approved
by leading chipset manufacturers
