Often referred to as UMA (Unlicensed Mobile Access), GAN is a 3GPP release 6 feature where a cellular device equipped with a second wireless transceiver such as 802.11g can register not only through a cellular protocol stack such as GSM but also through a second IP based connection such as WLAN. Handovers and cell (re)selection are a critically important role in GAN device testing as voice and data loss is undesirable. Maintaining the best link quality and QoS is paramount to end user satisfaction and GAN adoption in the market. The Aeroflex GAN solution is able to test both of these features within one single control environment, complete with full message logging of both the GSM and GAN messaging. The 6103 AIME can be upgraded to support GAN testing from a basic 1 test set configuration supporting just GSM and GPRS through to its more comprehensive configuration of up to 8 test sets and supporting EDGE. Offering a powerful, flexible and comprehensive test tool the 6103 AIME/CT extends its capability of supporting GSM, AMR, DARP, GPRS, EGPRS and DTM test cases. It also supports a complete suite of all GAN test cases as listed in 3GPP TS51.010 section 81, 82 & 83, speeding up the development lifecycle from initial DSP, protocol R&D, and system integration through to pre-compliance and certification of GSM/GAN devices.
