The power of testing IoT devices

Rohde & Schwarz helps you understand your testing needs and perform all necessary tests to bring your IoT application to market quickly.

The Internet of Things (IoT) will affect all industries and ultimately everyone's daily life. Things such as containers, streetlights, trash cans, trees and cows are already connected to the Internet, and who can imagine what will be connected in the near future. What all these applications have in common is that they use of information from connected "things" to improve all kinds of processes and, ultimately, to save money, energy and lives. Expectations for reliability, performance, quality of experience and longtime availability are therefore extremely high and connectivity is a crucial success factor.

Your IoT test challenges

Testing of the overall communication behavior of IoT devices is an important topic in all phases of the product lifecycle in order to ensure proper functionality as well as long battery life and high performance:

• RF design testing under specified RF conditions
• Performance measurements, such as power consumption and battery life
• Compliance with applicable regulatory standards and operator-specific requirements before wireless devices can enter the market
• Manufacturing testing ensures products are of the highest quality and improves customer satisfaction
