Ensure your radio equipment uses the radio frequency spectrum effectively, with ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½’s comprehensive radio frequency (RF) testing services. Prevent interference, optimize performance, and guarantee regulatory compliance across the entire lifecycle of your devices.

 

What is RF testing? 

Radio frequency (RF) testing uses simulations to check that radio and telecommunications equipment does not interfere with other radio spectrum users and is not subject to interference from other devices. Testing typically involves assessing signal strength, frequency accuracy, modulation quality, and your product's adherence to regulatory standards such as FCC or CE requirements. With specialized equipment like spectrum analyzers, signal generators, and network analyzers, our experts can measure expected parameters, identify interference, and confirm that your devices operate within defined limits.
