  • Patent number: 9031513
    Abstract: The invention relates to a test device for testing the transmission quality of radio devices by integrating a noise generating device in the transmission chain of the test device. To this end, data to be transmitted are imaged on individual partial data streams modulated onto signals associated with the partial data streams and having different carrier frequencies. At this point in the transmission chain, a noise proportion for at least a part of the signals is added to one signal each of a carrier frequency, in order to allow frequency-selective control of the noise proportions added to the signals of the carrier frequencies. The resulting noisy signals and non-noisy signals of the carrier frequencies are transmitted by a transmission device, and a response signal sent back by a radio device to be tested is received by a receiving device. An analysis device evaluates the received response signal.

  • Patent number: 8526939
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device and to a method for testing a mobile radio device in a multiple antenna system using a frequency-selective static channel model for channel simulation in frequency space. In the method according to the invention, the useful data to be transmitted are first allocated to a plurality of carrier frequencies and the associated coding parameters per antenna. The useful data are then modulated onto the carrier frequencies according to the allocation. One or more modulated carrier signals are now distorted in frequency space according to a frequency-selective static channel model. A transmission signal composed of the channel-modeled modulated carrier signals is subsequently transmitted in the period of time to a mobile radio device to be tested.

  • Publication number: 20030132868
    Abstract: The invention relates to a frequency converter for converting a digital baseband signal (2) having a first frequency (0 Hz) into an analog output signal (8), which is centered around a second frequency (fz, f1+fz, f2+fz), which is switched in rapidly successive frequency jumps, and to a corresponding method. In order to improve the performance of the frequency converter with regard to the rapid switching of the transmission frequency (fz, f1+fz, f2+fz), it is proposed to provide the frequency converter with a digital mixer (9), which transforms the digital baseband signal (2) fed to it to a low intermediate frequency (f1, f2), a D/A converter (3) for converting the baseband signal (4) supplied by the digital mixer (9) into an analog bandpass signal (6), and an analog mixer (7), which transforms the analog bandpass signal (6) with a predetermined constant factor (fz) into a real bandpass signal (8) which is centered around the transmission frequency (fz, f1+fz, f2+fz).
