It uses the 6113G test set and the GPRS AIME (Air Interface Monitoring and Emulation) software package which is a member of the ProCLAIME series of protocol testers. The features of this powerful test and development tool allow the (E)GPRS software designer to monitor, debug and fault find the layer 1 and protocol interchanges on the Um interface. The tester is suitable for (E)GPRS development programs as well as integration and regression testing of base stations. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The 6113-GPRS AIME is a script driven software package which runs on a separate PC controlling a 6113G Digital Radio Test Set via its GPIB/IEEE488 interface. The AIME user interface provides the user with a sophisticated script editing and control facility, captures all the layer 2 and 3 signaling exchanges with frame and time stamps and logs all the traffic frames. USER INTERFACE The user interface software runs under Windows™ NT 4.0 based environments, providing the following functionality: • Control of the 6113G via GPIB interface • Script editing, debugging, execution and automation • Logging of all air interface signaling • Logging of all traffic frames • Filtering of viewed data • Fully decoded display of layer 2 and 3 messages • Remote control ethernet interface PHYSICAL LAYER LINK FUNCTION • GPRS and GSM logical channels • GPRS and GSM 51 & 52 Multiframe formats • GPRS coding schemes CS1-4 • GPRS multi slot up to 4 Tx + 4 Rx time slots (maximum combination of 6 time slots) • Includes ability to test Type 2 terminals • Supports GPRS TBF transfer and GSM voice and data transfer, but not simultaneously • Sending and receiving on PDCH and PACCH
