Agilent Technologies has announced the availability of its Signal Studio for 3GPP Long Term Evolution (LTE) software. Designed to work with Agilent's N5182A MXG and E4438C ESG vector signal generators, Signal Studio software helps wireless R&D and manufacturing engineers create Agilent-validated and performance-optimised signals to design and test evolving 3GPP LTE products for the next generation of mobile communications.

Signal Studio claims to provide spectrally correct signals tailored for testing and evaluating components such as power amplifiers used in LTE mobile handsets and base transceiver stations.

The new software features the ability to adjust LTE parameters to fine-tune signal characteristics for specific applications.

"As a leader in the measurement industry, Agilent is fully committed to providing today's engineers with the resources they need to efficiently and effectively create the next generation of mobile communication based on 3GPP LTE," said Shankar Roy Chowdary, general manager (Marketing), Electronic Measurements Group, Agilent Technologies India.
