Product overview

The R&S®TS8991 OTA performance test system measures the spatial radiated and sensitivity characteristics of wireless devices to CTIA and 3GPP specifications. Its system software provides ready-made test templates, supports every wireless standard, and performs certification testing on wireless devices that need an omnidirectional antenna radiation pattern. The R&S®TS8991 is available with wireless performance test chambers of several types and sizes and is a complete turnkey solution comprising test instruments, system software, a fully anechoic chamber, an OTA cavity and an EUT positioner. Integrated reporting brings all measurement data — graphics, numerical results, test environment, equipment under test information and hardware setup — together in one document.

Key features

  • OTA testing of all major cellular and non-cellular technologies, covering a broad range of wireless standards
  • Complies with 3GPP, CTIA and Wi-Fi Alliance (CWG) specifications, for all radio access technologies (RATs)
  • Can be integrated with radiated spurious emission (RSE) and EMC testing for one-stop testing
  • Complete turnkey solution including test instruments, a fully anechoic chamber and system software
  • Supports passive antenna measurement using near-field to far-field transformation
  • Fully automated CTIA-compliant OTA measurement, with ready-made test templates in the system software
  • Integrated reporting collects graphics, numerical results, test environment and EUT information automatically

Typical applications

  • Wireless device certification testing (CTIA / 3GPP compliance verification)
  • TRP (total radiated power) and TIS (total isotropic sensitivity) measurement on cellular devices
  • Over-the-air receiver testing of 5G NR base stations
  • Antenna performance evaluation of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth devices
  • Radiated spurious emission (RSE) and EMC compliance testing
  • Passive antenna gain and pattern measurement (near-field to far-field transformation)
