Abstract

To provide a mobile terminal testing device capable of easily referring to an EVM measurement result of an SRS by automatically calculating an allocation position of the SRS. The mobile terminal testing device includes: a pseudo base station unit 2 that transmits and receives an RF signal to and from a mobile terminal 10 ; a scenario processing unit 3 that transmits notification information to the pseudo base station unit 2 and executes a communication sequence with the mobile terminal 10 , based on a scenario of a test; and a control unit 6 that calculates an allocation position of an SRS based on a set parameter, and displays an EVM measurement result such that the allocation position of the SRS is recognized.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A mobile terminal testing device for testing a mobile terminal by simulating a base station of mobile communication, the mobile terminal testing device comprising:
a control unit that calculates an allocation position of a sounding reference signal (SRS) based on a set parameter and displays an error vector magnitude (EVM) measurement result such that the allocation position of the SRS is recognized.

2. The mobile terminal testing device according to claim 1 , wherein the control unit displays a symbol in which the SRS is arranged in an identifiable manner.

3. The mobile terminal testing device according to claim 1 , wherein the control unit displays the allocation position of the SRS in a symbol in which the SRS is arranged.

4. The mobile terminal testing device according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a pseudo base station unit;
a scenario processing unit that transmits and receives a radio frequency (RF) signal between the pseudo base station unit and the mobile terminal;
an operation unit that outputs, to the control unit, information necessary for generation of a scenario that is input by an operation; and
a display unit that displays the EVM measurement result.

5. The mobile terminal testing device according to claim 4 , wherein the display unit includes a symbol display unit, a detailed result display unit, and a symbol designation unit,
the symbol display unit displays, on a time axis, an EVM state of a slot designated such that the EVM state is input into the operation unit and displayed, and
the symbol designation unit designates a symbol to be displayed on the detailed result display unit among slots displayed on the symbol display unit.

6. The mobile terminal testing device according to claim 5 , wherein the control unit makes a display of a part other than the allocation position of the SRS displayed on the detailed result display unit different from a normal display.

7. A mobile terminal testing device according to claim 5 , wherein the control unit also makes a display for a symbol in which the SRS of the symbol display unit is arranged different from a normal display.

8. The mobile terminal testing device according to claim 1 , wherein when the allocation position of the SRS is an abnormal value, the control unit presents to a user a case that is considered as a cause of an error.

9. A method for displaying an error vector magnitude (EVM) measurement result of a sounding reference signal (SRS) of a mobile terminal testing device for testing a mobile terminal by simulating a base station of mobile communication, the method comprising:
calculating an allocation position of the SRS based on a set parameter; and
displaying an EVM measurement result such that the allocation position of the SRS is recognized, based on the calculated allocation position of the SRS.
