Anite Conformance Toolset is an Undisputed Leader

FLEET, England, November 3, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- Rigorous LTE device certification is essential to ensure that next generation LTE wireless devices meet consumer expectations. Anite, the global leader in testing technology for the wireless industry is the first and so far the only test equipment vendor to have 3GPP RAN5 TD-LTE test cases approved by GCF. Anite's consistent ability to deliver advanced technology via proven solutions greatly reduces the risk to manufacturers' R&D programs, allowing better, safer and quicker testing with faster time to market for their mobile devices.

Anite's ongoing rollout of TD-LTE test cases highlights the strategic importance of TD-LTE technology to Chinese and Indian mobile operators, enabling the effective utilization of unpaired spectrum assets and delivering an excellent mobile broadband experience to subscribers.

"The Chinese and Indian mobile operator markets are driving TD-LTE technology forward at tremendous speed," said Paul Beaver, Anite's 3GPP Business Unit Director, "and Anite is transcending the challenge thrown down by the mobile operators for TD-LTE conformance testing, leading the way as the premier solution for device manufacturers needing to stay ahead of the competition by accelerating the rate of development and speeding device time to market."

Anite has reinforced its standing as the global leader in testing technology for the wireless industry with further validated FDD test cases for both GCF & PTCRB conformance testing. This achievement builds upon Anite's already comprehensive portfolio of leading 3GPP protocol technologies, from GSM through EDGE and WCDMA to the latest HSPA+ standards. In addition, the Anite Conformance Toolset has been selected by an influential US network operator to support its LT-FDD 3GPP Band 13 Signalling Conformance Test Plan underlining Anite's position as the market leader in conformance testing.

Anite's unique blend of targeted test solutions for 2G, 3G and LTE technologies allows developers to adopt a total end-to-end test philosophy for all of their wireless testing needs, reducing both development time and costs. Anite's trail-blazing work on RAN5 test case verification (over 85% of LTE FDD test cases have been verified by Anite to date) and close collaboration with all of the leading LTE device manufacturers globally means that Anite is now the undisputed leader in LTE device testing and debugging.
