Preparations for SAR measurement takes more time than the SAR measurement itself. The number and complexity of the rules built-in to the Knowledge Database (KDB) documents is spread across numerous KDB publications, making the overall picture very difficult to digest even for a senior SAR test expert. Also, many test mode selection rules (e.g. WLAN, LTE) involve large quantities of data to be analyzed, creating huge amounts of manual work which is prone to errors.
The new SAR Compliance Bot from ART-Fi's is the solution for this. You can’t have a conversation with the SAR Compliance Bot, but it may be the first such bot that automates the application of the rules for the test and measurement industry. It takes your DUT, performs conducted power measurements and, down to every letter of the labyrinthine Knowledge Databases (KDBs), creates your test plan without a single error using their unique KDB Engine. Coupled with ART-MAN for instant and accurate SAR measurements, and the SARborg DUT positioner, it automates SAR measurement completely, from test planning to execution with accurate test reports. Automation eliminates human error, saves thousands of test hours, and improves the overall reliability of SAR measurement test reports.
Features of SAR Compliance Bot include:
- Eliminate human error and label your work "Testing guided by SAR Compliance Bot."
- Save time and cut costs planning and reporting SAR tests.
- Know exactly what tests you need to run for the DUT.
- Always be up-to-date on KDBs.
- Dynamic, real-time test updates using SAR measurement data.
- Perfect and simple reporting.
Labs can improve the accuracy and speed of their SAR measurements while dramatically reducing human error. Certification organizations can use this bot to ensure that the proper tests were made. Manufacturers use it to generate test plans and conduct testing during R&D, pre-compliance, or in-house compliance testing. In any phase, this compliance bot reduces human error and ensures success.
The SAR Compliance Bot uses an always up-to-date KDB engine to produce dynamic and 100% compliant SAR test plans and reports. The KDB engine is updated whenever KDBs or other announcements are made, and test engineers can choose which version of a KDB they want to apply during transition periods.
The Bot automates conducted power testing, reporting, and test mode selection. It is launching with the KDB engine, but features an extensible architecture for IEC, IEEE, MIC, and other sets of regulations or standards. This bot makes sure that not a single error was made when producing the test plan. ART-Fi's vision is to make the "Testing guided by SAR Compliance Bot" label the de facto standard of for manufacturers, labs, certification organizations, and regulators.
