Mobile device validation
First Claim
1. At least one non-transitory computer-readable medium, carrying instructions, which when executed by at least one data processor, performs a method for validating a mobile device, the method comprising:
- receiving at a validation platform a mobile device design validation request from a design application,wherein the validation request includes technical details regarding a mobile device to be tested;
in response to receiving the validation request, querying a signal generation device to determine testing signal availability;
via the validation platform, routing testing signals from the signal generation device to a desired testing center selected from multiple testing centers;
receiving, at the validation platform, feedback information from the desired testing center with respect to testing of the mobile device;
receiving a request for an additional testing signal; and
in response to receiving the request for the additional testing signal, sending instructions to route the additional testing signal to the desired testing center.

Abstract
The disclosure relates to technology for managing signal distribution and lab resources in design validation environments that replicate a type of communication signal a consumer can experience on a wireless provider'"'"'s network. For example, the validation environment will enable engineers to test VoLTE in an LTE for various smart phone designs and other network-based signals from various hardware combinations and suppliers. Additionally, various embodiments of the present technology provide for an automation framework that allows for efficient management of signal distribution, resource allocation, scheduling, and more.
