Adaptive RF system testing system and method
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of testing of an RF system comprising the steps of:
- (a) in a first processor, providing an emulated RF environment for evaluating a system under test (SUT);
(b) receiving inputs to a second processor from the emulated RF environment and the SUT;
(c) measuring a first parameter output by the SUT for a selected period of time;
(d) characterizing the behavior of the SUT as a function of the measured first parameter(e) in a third processor, dynamically changing the provided emulated environment as a function of the characterized behavior of the SUT to cause the SUT to change its behavior by changing from one state to another state;
(f) measuring a second parameter output by the SUT;
(g) characterizing the behavior of the SUT as a function of the measured second parameter; and
(h) continuing measuring a second parameter until the characterized behavior of the SUT as a function of the measured second parameter satisfies a completion criteria.

11. A system for testing an RF system in an emulated RF environment, the system comprising:
-
A non-transitory memory for storing computer readable code; and a processor operatively coupled to the memory, the processor configured to; provide an emulated RF environment for evaluating a system under test (SUT); receive inputs from the emulated RF environment and the SUT; measure a first parameter output by the SUT for a selected period of time; characterize the behavior of the SUT as a function of the measured first parameter; dynamically change the provided emulated environment as a function of the characterized behavior of the SUT to cause the SUT to change its behavior by changing from one state to another state; measuring a second parameter output by the SUT; characterize the behavior of the SUT as a function of the measured second parameter; continue measuring a second parameter until the characterized behavior of the SUT as a function of the measured second parameter satisfies a completion criteria. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
