Drive and walk test campaigns

Use same data collection equipment for drive and walk tests

The SmartBenchmarker building blocks include the measuring devices, smartphones and R&S®TSMx scanners.
Smartphones can be seamlessly ported and used as standalone QualiPoc solutions. Combined with an RF scanner and a minimal license fee upgrade, the smartphones can also be used in a portable system such as Freerider.
This kind of modularity and flexibility not only reduces capital expenditures, it also minimizes the number of testing devices needed.
