  • Saving investment with reusability of the same Hardware platform for different applications such as LBS, PQA, ATE, IMS and RRM

Brief Description The R&S®TS-LBS test system family is highly configurable for testing different location technologies of user equipment (UE) and chipsets. The R&S®TS-LBS represents the top end of the second generation of LBS test systems from Rohde & Schwarz. It fulfills all requirements for LBS conformance testing and operator acceptance testing of GSM, WCDMA and LTE devices.
