System for testing an embedded wireless transceiver
First Claim
1. A test equipment for testing a wireless communication device, comprising:
- a wireless transceiver that is operative to transmit, via an interface, a first and second series of packets and to receive, via said interface, a power level indicator that is based on at least one of said first series of packets;
memory that is operative to store said power level indicator; and
a controller that is operative to perform a signal strength test by controlling said transceiver to transmit said first series of packets at a first power level, storing said power level indicator in memory when received by said transceiver, and controlling said transceiver to transmit said second series of packets at a second power level subsequent to receiving said power level indicator.

Abstract
A test equipment for testing a wireless communication device includes a wireless transceiver, memory, and a controller. The wireless transceiver transmits a first and second series of packets. The wireless transceiver receives a power level indicator that is based on at least one of the first series of packets. The memory stores the power level indicator. The controller performs a signal strength test. More specifically, the controller controls the transceiver to transmit the first series of packets at a first power level. The controller stores the power level indicator in memory when the power level indicator is received by the transceiver. The controller controls the transceiver to transmit the second series of packets at a second power level.
