Integrated device control software for the FSM99xx based multi-mode enterprise, residential and metro small cells from Qualcomm Technologies is included.

PXI Maestro test software provides an out-of-the-box system integrating all the sequencing control necessary to measure multiple devices under test (multi-DUT). This provides the ability to test up to four small cells in parallel using a single RF channel (a single vector signal analyzer and signal generator) by the use of novel RF signal conditioning and intelligent test sequencing, providing low cost with industry leading test times.

"Our femtocell customers are looking for solutions that can accelerate their development on the bench while providing scalability in volume manufacturing,” said Tim Carey, Senior Product Manager for Modular Instruments at Cobham Wireless. “PXI Maestro software allows a single RF channel to test multiple devices without any additional development effort or complexity when transferring into production.”

The customisable components of the PXI Maestro software such as device control, test plan editing, result formatting, and the PXI Maestro graphical user interface combine to present a comprehensive ATE system that is capable for measurements from benchtop R&D characterisation right through to multi-DUT volume manufacturing. The PXI Maestro small cell capability provides frequency coverage up to 6 GHz for all LTE, LTE-A and HSPA bands.

PXI Maestro software and PXI modular hardware is currently in use by major base station vendors and manufacturers.
