The EMQuest EMQ-100 from ETS-Lindgren is an Antenna Measurement Software that offers a wide range of fully parameterized test methods for measuring basic antenna performance metrics. It also enables testing both radiated and conducted a performance of various wireless devices. The baseline test suite includes fully automated 2D (polar) and 3D (spherical) pattern measurement capabilities as well as various frequency response measurements for both passive antennas and active wireless devices in either transmit or receive mode.
This Software provides test functionality for single and dual-axis (2D and 3D) antenna pattern measurements and the associated post-processing, for vector, scalar (relative or absolute power), and receiver sensitivity measurements. It also contains a response calibration package for capturing frequency response and VSWR curves from supported test equipment. Optional expansion packages are also available to increase the testing capability, adding features like wireless throughput testing, A-GPS testing, MIMO performance testing, and pre-complaint RSE testing.
EMQuest provides a complete system software solution including test capabilities for calibration and validation of the test system. Compliant test methods are provided for performing the CTIA ripple test, as well as the WiMAX Forum and 3GPP field probe-based validation methods. It supports specialized calibration and validation methods for MIMO OTA testing and other specialized tests.
The EMQ-100 package is based on EMQuest Data Acquisition and Analysis Software. This Windows-based platform provides a powerful and easy way to navigate the environment. A modular data acquisition system makes this system continually expandable. New modules can be added to enhance the data acquisition functionality as needed.
