1:15 pm -
3:45 pm

Afternoon session (including snack and beverage breaks):

 

Carrier Test Requirements on IoT Devices – Achieving Balance
Explore the balancing act between low cost IoT devices and the high cost of OTA tests, with an eye on setting expectations for what sort of volume is needed to justify a from-scratch IoT design vs. using an off-the-shelf module.

Presented by:

James Young, Director of Business Development, ETS-Lindgren
 

 

What is PTCRB & GCF, Why PTCRB, Most Common Issues for RSE and OTA
One very important step to launching a connected device to a carrier network is PTCTB certification. In this session we will review, what it is, why it is important, the requirements device makers need to follow and more. Due to the large volume of devices we test every year we have identified the potential issues designers can face along with possible solutions and recommendations.

Presented by:

Rami Saman, PTCRB Expert and Senior Manager, Cetecom
 

 

7 Reasons Devices Fail in Certification
Learn about cellular antenna performance testing factors, common failure points and how to avoid them. Whether you’re a IoT newbie or seasoned engineer, meeting TRP, TIS, RSE and other key performance metrics can be quite challenging and require close attention to certain details. Certification requirements, including antenna integration, noise mitigation and filtering, can be equally challenging. In this session, Patrick Frank, will explain what each metric means and how to best meet certification requirements.

Presented by:

Patrick Frank, Principal RF Engineer, Taoglas
 

 

RF Testing: The Foundation of Device Accuracy
This session will focus on IoT RF testing needs, requirements, and methods. It will show the different types of measurements and how these measurements affect device performance.
