New technologies, multiple vendor systems, and ongoing service
rollouts have dramatically increased the complexity of maintaining
and managing contemporary wireless networks. This complexity is constantly stretching the bounds of telecom equipment manufacturers (TEMs), driving the need to rigorously test every release of their product for interoperability, error handling, and reporting. Aricents Total Testing for Wireless services help equipment manufacturers deliver solutions across the entire wireless technology ecosystem, quickly and efciently. With more than 15,000 person- years of telecom testing experience, dedicated technology expertise, and infrastructure, Aricent is the partner of choice for customers building wireless products.

TTW - 1.13 aricent.com TESTING LIFECYCLE SERVICES Our testing services span across the entire product lifecycle, including: > Conformance Testing > Feature Testing > Performance & Load Testing > Lab Management Services > Test Automation LAB MANAGEMENT SERVICES We manage customer labs, spread over more than 50,000 square feet, with zero downtime and round-the-clock availability. We create value through: LAB INFRASTRUCTURE PLANNING Understanding the existing infrastructure, lab space, power supply, and load requirements; and determining the equipment and software tools needed for lab setup. LAB SETUP PROCEDURES Working with customer, lab, and procurement teams for equipment transfers, and setting up of onsite, ofshore, and remote test setups within agreed timeframes. LAB MANAGEMENT PROCESSES Defining processes for inventory management, preventive maintenance, software upgrades, hardware procurement, lab usage, equipment disposal, shipping, calibration, and security compliance to standards such as ISO/IEC 17799 and ISO/IEC 27001. LAB MAINTENANCE Ensuring that the lab works under defined SLAs, equipment is maintained in complete operational state, and audits such as TL9000 are conducted periodically as per the guidelines. > System/Platform Testing > Interoperability Testing > Release/Acceptance Testing > Field/Deployment Testing > Vulnerability Testing TEST PLANS AND SUITES We have a rich repository of test cases spanning the testing life cycle for wireless networking technologies, including: > UMTS > CDMA 1X, EvDO > Collapsed Node (Femto) > WiMAX TEST SIMULATORS AND AUTOMATION Our in-house test tools help TEMs deliver superior product quality and accelerate time to market for wireless products. SOFTWARE TOOL FOR AUTOMATED TEST ENVIRONMENT (STATE) STATE accelerates unit, subsystem, system integration, and regression testing of 2G/2.5G/3G/LTE products. This platform agnostic tool allows script creation and execution, event tracking, logging, and customizable statistics and reports. BSS AUTOMATION FRAMEWORK The BSS Automation Framework allows users to dene Execution Scenarios, using built-in Execution Blocks for any 2G/3G test scenario. It controls the automation test bed setup and can independently execute test cases to generate result logs. TEST LABS AND EQUIPMENT Our investments in test equipment and infrastructure enable us to build testing expertise on the latest wireless technologies. Test equipment available with us includes trafc generators, spectrum analyzers, power meters, and frequency counters from leading vendors such as Smart Bits, IXIA, Spirent, etc. Additionally, we have equipped our labs with routers and switches from leading vendors such as Cisco, Juniper, and HP. > LTE > GSM, GPRS > Core Networks > OMC, NMS CDMA2000 1X, CDMA2000 1xEV-DO, CDMA2000 1xEV-DV IPSHO, True IMSI, IPBH, delay expansion, MEID, PCMD, APS, RIM, OAM, SM OFDM, OFDMA, SC-FDMA, FDD LTE, TDD LTE, MIMO, MU-MIMO, CSFB, SV-LTE, and VoLTE eNodeB and EPC elements testing; LAG, VLAN, RIP, OSPF, ACL, QoS, and COPP testing Testing/resolving eld issues during FOA Always-on connectivity, bandwidth on-demand, asymmetric data rate system testing NAS-security, AS-security for LTE Scalability testing for 300K subscribers at 3000 CPS with mixed data proles CDMA LTE For more information visit aricent.com/services/total-testing-wireless
