  • Patent number: 11913987
    Abstract: An embodiment is an automated test equipment (ATE) for testing a device under test (DUT) which is connected to the ATE via a load board. The ATE comprises a stimulus module, a measurement module, a loopback, a first switch, a second switch, and a load board interface. The load board interface comprises a first radio frequency port and a second radio frequency port. The first and second radio frequency ports are configured to be coupled to the respective ports of the load board. The first switch is configured to couple the first radio frequency port to the stimulus module in a first switching state of the first switch and the second switch is configured to couple the second radio frequency port to the measurement module in a first switching state of the second switch.

  • Patent number: 9847843
    Abstract: An apparatus for wireless testing, wherein the apparatus includes a test interface, a test generator, a test module, and an analysis module. The test interface is coupled to an electronic device and is configured to transmit data to the electronic device and to receive data from the electronic device. The test generator drives the electronic device through the test interface to vary the beam direction. The test module determines a plurality of transmit values of a transmit parameter based on the test signal wirelessly received from the electronic device using at least one static antenna for receiving the test signal. Each transmit value of the transmit parameter is associated with a different beam direction. The analysis module provides an assessment of the plurality of transmit paths of the electronic device based on the plurality of transmit values.
