Abstract: A system and method are provided that reduce the amount of time required to perform transient circuit and envelope transient circuit simulations. The total simulation time is partitioned into n simulation segments of equal lengths of time and adjacent simulation segments are overlapped in time by a predetermined overlap time period, Tov. The simulation segments are then simulated in parallel and the simulation results are merged into a final simulation waveform. The predetermined overlap time period Tov is determined using a non-iterative process that can be performed very quickly. Consequently, the overall amount of time that is required to perform the simulation is greatly reduced.

Abstract: A device for testing telecommunication terminals for telecommunication systems, in particular mobile radio systems, of the multiple access type, using a particular multiplex structure, transmits test information between the test device and a plurality of terminals under test by multiplexing in accordance with this multiplex structure.

Abstract: A method of adjusting an electronic function implemented in an article that forms a part of a population of articles to be adjusted, the electronic function presenting dispersion from one article to another. When necessary, the method comprises replacing an initial parameter stored in a dispersion correction stage that is coupled to the electronic function with a correction parameter so that the combined response of said function plus the associated correction stage to a predetermined input stimulus lies in a predetermined range. The initial parameter is a centered parameter corresponding to the mean value of the capability curve of correction parameters for the function, the mean value itself being updated whenever the percentage of the population of articles for which test measurements lie outside the predetermined range becomes greater than a predetermined percentage. A large proportion of the measurements performed thus lie within the predetermined range so there is then no need to adjust the function.
