ADVANCED TESTING FOR NEXT-GENERATION TELECOM INFRASTRUCTURE
Conducted RF conformance for GSM, WCDMA, LTE, 5G NR and multi-standard radio (MSR) base stations, with O-RAN validation and radiated conformance in our CATR.
OVERVIEW
ALVEX is an ISO/IEC 17025:2017-accredited laboratory for conducted RF conformance testing of base stations: type 1-C and 1-H radios, single-RAT and multi-standard radio (MSR) equipment across GSM, WCDMA, LTE and 5G NR FR1. Tests run to 3GPP TS 38.141-1, TS 37.141 and TS 36.141 on automated Keysight systems, covering Chapter 6 transmitter, Chapter 7 receiver and Chapter 8 performance requirements.
O-RAN radio units are validated for open fronthaul, synchronisation and multi-vendor interoperability alongside the conformance campaign, so one submission covers both.
