China Mobile Research Institute and Rohde & Schwarz to Conduct Joint Research on TD-LTE Testing Technology

MUNICH, Germany, June 30, 2011/PRNewswire/ --

    During the Sino-Germany Economic and Technology Cooperation Forum, China
Mobile Research Institute, the R&D division of China Mobile, and Rohde &
Schwarz announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for
collaborating on the research of TD-LTE testing technology and test system
development.

    The MoU highlights the cooperation on joint research in TD-LTE testing
technology and test instrument development to speed up the global roll-out
of TD-LTE technology.

    TD-LTE, the TDD version of LTE standard which has converged development
with FDD LTE, enables high-speed mobile Internet access. According to the
Global Mobile Suppliers Association, TD-LTE will obtain a significant share
in the worldwide LTE market. TD-LTE technology has gained increasing support
in Asia Pacific as well as in Europe and America with the backing of more
than 70 companies from across the mobile ecosystem.

    China Mobile, the leading operator in TD-LTE network and terminal
testing, has made great strides in the promotion of TD-LTE test systems
development. In the field of terminal testing, China Mobile is leading the
project group TD-LTE Work Items (WI) within the Global Certification Forum
(GCF) for conformance testing, covering protocol, RF and RRM. In order to
set up end-to-end testing solutions and simulate end-user experience, China
Mobile is cooperating with other operators and test system vendors to
develop network-simulator independent operating test (IOT) systems.

    Rohde & Schwarz has been providing testing solutions to mobile network
providers, test houses, chipset and user equipment manufacturers for many
years. Rohde & Schwarz offers RF conformance tests, RRM testing, PQA,
signalling conformance tests, protocol and call box solutions in TD-LTE.

    The joint research effort by China Mobile Research Institute and Rohde &
Schwarz will ensure the establishment of an end-to-end TD-LTE testing
environment, resulting in robust networks and high quality terminals.
