Features

Full support to the terminal protocol conformance testing

specification

This brand-new generation terminal conformance tester supports the single-

mode protocol testing of TD-SCDMA, and offers a complete series of IRAT

cases amongst TD-SCDMA/GSM so as to fully satisfy the requirements of a

range of users. Furthermore, these testcases are designed and constructed

3

strictly in accordance with the specifications, thereby guaranteeing the accuracy

of testing.

Full coverage of protocol versions, including R4, R5 (HSDPA) and R7(HSUPA);

and complete protocol stack realization, including the PL, MAC, RLC, RRC,

RAB, NAS, SMS, and other protocols.

Solutions for multi-mode terminal protocol testing

TD-SCDMA single-mode protocol testing solution

Covers all TCG certification testcase for TD-SCDMA single-mode protocol testing; and supports 6 three-carrier cells and A+F+E frequency ranges.

IRAT of TD-SCDMA/GSM protocol testing solution

Covers the testcase for IRAT of TD-SCDMA and GSM; and supports 6 TD-SCDMA three-carrier cells and 4 GSM cells.

Flexible configuration of solution scenarios

Hardware: The hardware units can be flexibly configured as necessitated by the

testing to suit single cell or multi-cell testing scenarios.

Software: The testing script package can be flexibly combined and the testcase

package can be configured as required by the user.

Selectable testing modes

It supports manual and automatic tests, and is suitable for R&D testing, high

capacity certification testing and batch manufacture testing. The manual testing

serves to facilitate analysis of single testcase by the user, and the automatic

testing serves to facilitate the rapid execution of testcase by the user so as to

improve testing efficiency.

Open interface for secondary development

It adopts the universally-used conformance testing language TTCN for script

development, is capable of rapid case expansion in accordance with 3GPP

evolution, and supports the API interface for secondary development to facilitate

testcase design and development by the user.

4

It provides comprehensive means for analysis issue , and can clearly display the

testing control flowchart during the testing process, generate various logs such

as TTCN Log, ADL Log, SMT Log, SS Log and Monitor Log when the testing is

complete, so as to facilitate rapid tracking, analysis issue.

TTCN Log are named with terminal name, testcase number, test time and

execution results, so as to facilitate storage, screening and search by the user.

The test results can be recorded and saved in various formats (such as EXCEL,

PDF, WORD, TXT, HTML and RPT).

Enhancement-type optional devices

Programmable power supply

The programmable power supply is connected to the terminal equipment and

controlled by the PC, and energizes or de-energizes the terminal in coordination

with the instrument. The terminal control by programmable power supply can

circumvent the manual operation, improve testing efficiency and avoid abnormal

terminal start or stop due to any incorrect AT commands, making the testing

more accurate and reliable.

Automatic LOG uploader

5

The logs can be uploaded to the server in real time ,so the logs of several

testing instruments can be timely collected ,and facilitating timely analysis by the

developer.

Software and Hardware of the TD-SCDMA module of ECT6210

Hardware structure of TD-SCDMA module

The TD-SCDMA module of ECT6210 comprises four units, ECTC6210,

ECTU6210, ECTF6210 and CTP3110, which are installed in the cabinet.

The main external interfaces of the tester are primarily as follows:

6

RF connection between the instrument and the terminal is by an RF cable.

An AC220V supply line is used for the power supply to the whole system.

The control PC and the terminal to be tested are connected via a data line

to enable the control message transmission and receipt in automatic

testing. The control PC connects the ECTC and ECTU via an Ethernet

cable.

The instrument provides 5ms/80ms trigger, 10MHz reference output, the

BNC connector

The ECTC6210 hardware structure

As a protocol unit, the ECTC6210 is composed of a control unit and an IPC.
