  • Patent number: 7437275
    Abstract: Methods, systems and computer program products for performing multi-location execution of tests between or among multi-sided test components in a wireless environment are described. Multiple flows are initiated substantially simultaneously and concurrently executed. A graphical representation of a multi-flow test is created that permits synchronization of the flows among agents at multiple remote locations. The graphical representation is converted into a textual representation in an open communication standard format, and information regarding each flow involved in the test is ascertained. The flows are substantially simultaneously initiated and concurrently executed with synchronization and dynamic data exchange components.

  • Publication number: 20070252582
    Abstract: A test probe. The test probe includes an interconnect module configured to connect to a modular, replaceable wireless module, a connect module configured to communicate with a communication network and the wireless module, an identification module configured to receive and transmit an identification of the test probe, an audio module configured to enable transfer of audio data from/for communication with the communication network from/to the wireless module and to translate audio data to/from audio signals, and a computer configured to enable transfer of audio signals from/to the audio module, transfer of digital data from/to the wireless module, and transfer of test data to/from a remote controller. Test data from the remote controller comprises instructions to control the wireless module and data for the wireless module to transfer to the connect module, and test data transmitted to the remote controller comprises digital data and audio data received from the wireless module.

  • Publication number: 20070252605
    Abstract: An interface module. The interface module includes a probe identification module configured for connection to an identification bus, a probe detect module configured for connection to a detect-control bus, a power control module configured for connection to the detect-control bus, a control and data module configured for connection to a control-data bus, and multiple connectors. Each connector has an associated hot swap circuit. For each connector, if the probe detect module detects connection of that connector to a test probe via connection of that connector to the probe detect module, the probe identification module is configured to enable transfer of an identification label identifying that test probe to that test probe via that connector and the control and data module is configured to enable transfer of control instructions and data between the control-data bus and the test probe via connection of the control and data module to that connector.
