HERZLIYA, Israel and MUNICH, Germany, June 2 /PRNewswire/ — Comsys
Communication & Signal Processing Ltd and Rohde & Schwarz today announced
that they have jointly developed a customized test solution for RF
calibration offering customers the most cost-effective test solution for RF
testing, calibration and signal testing in devices incorporating Comsys
Mobile’s ComMAX(TM) CM1125 mobile WiMAX/GSM-EDGE modules.

This highly optimized solution is based on Rohde & Schwarz RF production
testers into which the ComMAX SoC testing scheme was ported and fully
optimised for automated testing.

The solution combines alignment and verification with maximum throughput
tests in a single box for production-line emulation of a base station. Test
engineers are able to quickly build a competitive test platform to test their
new designs, while manufacturers are able to automatically align
transmitter/receiver functions such as frequency response and linearity. This
enables quick ramp-up of the production line and maximum throughput.

For mobile WiMAX RF calibration, the R&S CMW270 was chosen. This is a
very fast one-box tester for the production and R&D of WiMAX mobile stations.

For GSM/EDGE RF calibration, the R&S CMU200 was used. This is a market
established mobile radio tester for production as well as R&D.

Comsys Mobile’s ComMAX(TM) CM1125 single-chip multimode mobile
WiMAX/GSM-EDGE baseband processor features full mobility support, low power
operation and integrated support for legacy cellular networks. ComMAX CM1125
comes with a unique multimode handset reference design platform enabling
rapid development of converged mobile WiMAX/cellular devices.

“We’re delighted to have such a high-calibre company as a ComMAX
ecosystem partner,” said Mr. Avi Sharon, Director for LTE Product Marketing.
“Comsys Mobile is constantly striving for ways to make it simple for
manufacturers to integrate our mobile WiMAX solutions, and we have achieved
this in our joint solution with Rohde & Schwarz for RF testing & calibration.”
