ºÃÉ«TV can help you with all your wireless testing, certification, and advisory needs. With our services, you can quickly launch superior wireless technologies in the global market.
Wireless Network Testing Capabilities
ºÃÉ«TV’s advanced wireless testing encompasses compatibility, functionality, interoperability, performance, and competitive analysis.
As a leading authority in testing and certification, ºÃÉ«TV is one of the few labs to offer Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) testing services to manufacturers of 802.11(a/n) devices and other wireless technologies that operate in the 5GHz range.
Our testing capabilities include, but are not limited to:
-
Performance testing - evaluates radio performance (which can include spurious emissions, power, bandwidth, stability, adaptivity, receiver blocking, and more) compared to regulatory authority requirements according to industry standards.
-
Dynamic frequency selection (DFS) testing - evaluates the ability of a device operating in the 5250-5350 MHz and/or 5470-5725MHz band to detect local military, emergency service, or radar signals and move to an off-channel frequency to mitigate interference.
-
Specific absorption rate (SAR) testing - measures the rate at which energy is absorbed by the body when exposed to a radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic field. SAR testing is typically required when an intentional transmitter is intended to transmit within 20 cm of the end user.
-
Maximum permissible exposure (MPE) calculation - an alternative to SAR testing for products not used within 20 cm of the end user.
-
EMI/EMC testing - ensures your product won’t be subject to any negative interactions in the electromagnetic environment it will be operating in.
-
Environmental/dynamic testing - simulates any condition that your product might encounter in the real world, measuring a device’s ability to withstand temperature, humidity, vibration, shock, and other factors.
