Test & Measurement

Test & Measurement is the application of the science of measurement (metrology). It is the planned execution of measurements, typically in combination across a range of quantities and against known or desired values. To test, one must define the focus or object of the testing, the framework and of course the measurements to be used. Combining and applying these effectively and efficiently – within the brief given, is the hallmark of good Test.

Examples of T&M system/project deliveries

Mobile/cellular network air-interface (RF) testing; ‘Drive Test’, CW-survey testing, parametric site-testing; coverage survey, trouble-shooting and data-feedback to operations and optimisation – operations, instrument/system and usage design; multiple mobile systems with central organisation (CDMA IS-95, DriveTest units, positioning andanalysis SW)
High-volume Manufacturing-test for Wireless Mobile Communication devices; production testing, alignment (phasing), sample-testing; design verification and feedback during ramp-up; device/assembly deviations and tolerances (Pass/Fail rates) during volume production; system-integrity and preventative maintenance; optimisation – integrated multiple-system production line and training (phasing test-systems; functional/final-test-systems; sample test-system; integration into SPC, SW/HW design)
Maritime Radar type-approval; design and product verification, high measurement-integrity and traceability; legislative reporting; metrology and standards traceable; test-system and training (alignment with federal/international standards, SW/HW design, test-system with custom HW, training)
Service & Repair operations, RF Power Sensor Calibration System, Design & coding; portable General Purpose test-system; optimisation of centre productivity and turn-around time; IT-integration of systems and bench-top applications; training (process analysis and optimisation; balancing of asset-distribution and integration of new assets; staff-training)
