1. An approval test method for a software-defined radio terminal, comprising:
- receiving a request signal from said software-defined radio terminal requesting an addition of a wireless function;
receiving identification information of said software-defined radio terminal;
determining upon the reception of the request signal whether or not to give a type approval certificate to the software-defined radio terminal based on a content of a database including approval information of a representative terminal whose configuration of hardware is same as said software-defined radio terminal; and
transmitting a result of the determination to said software-defined radio terminal.

Abstract
An approval test apparatus according to the present invention that perform an approval test for a software-defined radio terminal based on approval information for a representative terminal as a database. The radio terminal outputs a request signal of adding the wireless functions and identification information of the radio terminal. The approval test apparatus determines whether or not the approval is given to the radio terminal that has outputted the request signal and the identification signal.

18. A software-defined radio terminal capable of adding and deleting a wireless function, and requesting a type approval certificate to an approval test apparatus comprising:
-
a transceiver which transmits and receives a wireless signal;
a signal processor which modulates and demodulates the wireless signal; and
a transmitting and receiving controller which controls transmitting and receiving of the wireless signal, having an ID storage which stores an inherent ID which identifies the software-defined radio terminal as it is, a system ID which indicates information relating to the wireless function included in the software-defined radio terminal, and a configuration ID which indicates kinds of currently available wireless function at said software defined radio terminal, and updating a content in said ID storage in case said approval test apparatus has approved the software-defined radio terminal at a state of adding the wireless functions.
