MiNT T2230/1 Protocol Conformance Tester (PCT) is the test platform developed by AT4 wireless and Aeroflex to test WiMAX Mobile Stations (MiNT T2230) and Base Stations (MiNT T2231). MiNT T2232 Network Conformance Tester (NCT) is developed by AT4 wireless for Network Layer Protocols Testing of WiMAX. MiNT T223x has been designated by the WiMAX Forum® for certification of WiMAX devices.
CT and AIME modes are available to address the next two different applications:
- Development Testing (AIME)
- Conformance Testing (CT)
MiNT T223x PCT CT solution covers the official test cases for certification of Base Stations (BS) and Mobile Stations (MS) according to the validated ETSI conformance test cases.
MiNT T223x PCT AIME solution supports testing of additional features and to run own developed test scripts.
MiNT T223x supports the initial profiles defined by the WiMAX Forum:
- Profile 1A (MP01): 2.3GHz, 8.75MHz
- Profile 1B (MP02): 2.3GHz, 5MHz, 10MHz
- Profile 3A (MP05): 2.5GHz, 5MHz, 10MHz
- Profile 5AL (MP09), 5BL (MP10) and 5CL (MP12): 3.5GHz, 5MHz, 7MHz and 10MHz
The platform can support profiles in other frequency bands and bandwidths.
All the variants described (AIME/CT, T2230/T2231/T2232 and different Profiles) are SW based, so they are supported using the same HW platform.
