Anite Significantly Expands its Performance Testing Offering
FLEET, England, January 28, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
Anite acquires Propsim(R) channel emulation product set from Elektrobit and
launches internal fading capability for existing portfolio
Anite, a global leader in wireless equipment testing technology, today announces the
acquisition of the Propsim(R)channel emulation product set from Elektrobit, a global
leader in software and hardware solutions for the wireless and automotive industries. The
acquisition is in line with Anite's wider strategy to further expand its product portfolio
within Performance testing.
The market leading Propsim(R) branded portfolio of radio channel emulators are
designed to replicate wireless environments and isolate performance issues of wireless
equipment in order to ensure the reliable functionality of any broadband wireless
technology, such as 4G LTE. The acquisition of the Propsim(R) product set enables Anite to
broaden its product offering and expand into new customer segments, including network
infrastructure interoperability testing.
The evolution of wireless technologies, such as LTE and their complex antenna
configurations is leading to an increased need for Performance testing in order to
maintain high end-user experience. The emulation of different radio channel conditions
within a laboratory environment is a key enabler in providing comprehensive Performance
test solutions.
Anite today also announces the launch of an internal baseband fading capability for
all existing handset test products that utilise the latest Anite 9000 hardware platform.
Existing users are able to add fading technology to their test systems as a software
upgrade. This is a cost effective option for users that want to address the latest
performance test requirements with their existing products; especially data throughput
testing for both GCF certification and network operator acceptance test plans. This launch
is complementary to the Propsim(R) portfolio acquisition, and together both developments
help give Anite a comprehensive ability to address the Performance test needs of customers
developing and testing interoperability of wireless equipment.
Chris Humphrey, Anite's Chief Executive said, "The increasing market demand for more
integrated wireless laboratory test solutions makes Anite a natural fit for Propsim(R) .
Anite's established market and technology leadership, and its substantial global sales and
support footprint, combined with the acknowledged expertise and market leading channel
emulation solutions the Propsim(R) brand, creates a dedicated supplier with a more
complete product offering."
