Device validation

As the smartphone industry continues to boom, manufacturers face several challenges in their quest for innovation, product differentiation, and cost-effectiveness without compromising on both QoE (Quality of Experience) and QoS (Quality of Service).

​

Some of the issues they are facing are carrier aggregation complexity, increasing RF requirements, power management, pressures to add 5G new radio and network interoperability.

​

Test scenarios need to be continuously updated to ensure a wide coverage on all radio technologies and testing needs to be performed in a maximum of network infrastructures to ensure interoperability. Both activities require heavy resources and time, shrinking even further the profit margins.

​

Consumers become more demanding and they expect fast processors, superior battery performance, and robust and reliable devices even the entry-tier ones.
