mimoOn Announces mi!TestMOBILE, Advanced LTE Test-Mobile
mimoOn GmbH Announces First Delivery of LTE mi!TestMOBILETM for Femtocell Development and Testing
mimoOn GmbH, a pioneer in end-to end LTE software solutions for programmable Software Defined Radio (SDR) platforms, announced first commercial shipments of its advanced LTE Test-Mobile, mi!TestMOBILE, to a major infrastructure manufacturer in the Asia Pacific region. The customer will use mi!TestMOBILE to test their Femtocell designs initially in the lab, and later for field trials.
mi!TestMOBILE is a small and low-cost, fully featured test mobile for the rapid deployment and optimization of LTE networks, products and applications. With its SDR based platform, mi!TestMOBILE is able to evolve to the emerging 3GPP standards, enabling customers to upgrade & test their network, devices and eNB solutions in a low cost, fast and effective manner, ensuring quality of service to their end customers. mi!TestMOBILE relies on mimoOn’s terminal software product mi!Mobile, which is also available for licensing on different chip platforms.
mi!TestMOBILE offers advantages for the entire mobile ecosystem. It enables infrastructure OEMs to test their base-station equipment prior to deployment, and handset and semiconductor OEMs can benchmark their reference designs prior to general availability. With its small form factor and battery pack option, mi!TestMOBILE is also suited to field and drive testing. In addition, mi!TestMOBILE is not tied to any particular base-station or core network design, so it offers operators a neutral way to compare vendor capabilities and test actual network performance prior to switching on LTE.
According to Brian Robertson, VP Sales & Marketing of mimoOn, “This is a major milestone for mimoOn as it validates our belief in SDR enabling low cost, flexible and scalable platforms for LTE. With our first commercial deliveries, miTestMOBILE can also start to enable our customers to test, mature and evolve their own solutions for the explosive growth that will happen in LTE over the next years”.
