Key Features
As in-building traffic in cellular networks grows, there is an increased need for
indoor measurements. While traditional drive test systems consist of a laptop with
test mobile phones and scanners, there are also walk-test solutions that use tab-
lets and smartphones.
The R&S TSMA enhances such solutions, providing the user with accurate insight
into the RF environment.
The R&S TSMA combines the technology of the R&S TSME ultra-compact drive
test scanner with a high-performance Intel processor. The scanner can run PC-
based drive test software, and smartphones can be connected via USB. The
scanner measures up to eight technologies simultaneously in the 350 MHz to
4400 MHz wireless communications bands. It can be combined with an R&S
TSME to perform LTE MIMO measurements.
●
User-definable input frequency range from 350 MHz to 4400 MHz
●
RF and signal processing path with a bandwidth of 20 MHz
●
Parallel measurement of all technologies in all bands (up to eight technologies
simultaneously)
●
Integrated Intel PC with Microsoft
®
Windows operating system which allows
to install any drive test software supporting the R&S TSMA (e.g R&S ROMES)
●
Open remote ViCom interface in order to integrate into Windows and Android-
based software tools.
●
Automatic detection of active channels in a specified band (Automatic Chan-
nel Detection (ViCom only), R&S TSMA-K40, Order No. 1524.6339.02 or R&S
ROMES4ACD )
●
Analysis of the DL allocations of the strongest eNodeBs during measurement
(LTE Downlink Allocation Analyzer, R&S TSMA-K31, Order No. 1524.6322.02)
