The test execution unit 6 wirelessly communicates with the mobile device 2 via the test antenna 3 using the test parameters stored in the test parameter memory 5 according to each test procedure stored in the test procedure memory 4. Thus, transmission / reception of various information is executed, and various operation commands are applied via the external interface terminal 7 of the mobile device 2. As described above, the test execution unit 6 operates the mobile device 2 wirelessly and by wire to determine whether the operation state of the mobile device 2 is good or bad.

(First embodiment)
FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a schematic configuration of a wireless terminal test apparatus according to the first embodiment of the present invention.

  In the radio wave shield box 10, a mobile device 11 as a wireless terminal including a mobile phone to be tested is accommodated. The mobile device 11 is provided with an antenna 12, a display 13, an operation panel 14, a USB terminal 15 as an external interface terminal, and an RF terminal 16.

  Note that the USB terminal 15 is a terminal for transmitting and receiving various types of information between devices based on the USB (universal serial bus) standard. As information to be communicated between devices based on the USB standard, when the device is a mobile device 11, a model (model number) of the mobile device 11, a manufacturing number as an identification number, and the like are defined.

  A test antenna 17 is provided in the radio wave shield box 10. The test antenna 17 is connected to a transmission unit 20 and a reception unit 21 as a wireless transmission / reception unit on the wireless terminal test apparatus side via one end of a changeover switch 18.

  The other end of the changeover switch 18 is connected to the RF terminal 16 of the mobile device 11 via the communication interface 19. Usually, the test for the mobile device 11 to be tested is performed by radio waves via the antennas 17 and 12, but can also be performed by using an RF signal instead of the radio waves to the RF terminal 16 without via the antennas 17 and 12. is there. When the test is performed using the RF signal instead of the radio wave to the RF terminal 16 without passing through the antennas 17 and 12, the changeover switch 18 is inserted into the communication interface 19 side.

The wireless terminal test apparatus is composed of a kind of computer having a function of a pseudo base station for the mobile device 11 to be tested.
The digital information to be transmitted to the mobile device 11 output on the internal bus 22 is encoded into a digital signal by the encoding unit 23, and is CDMA-modulated by the modulation unit 24, for example, and becomes a necessary RF signal by the transmission unit 20, and is switched. Radio waves are radiated into the radio wave shield box 10 via the switch 18 and the test antenna 17. The transmission level of the transmission signal composed of the RF signal is set by the level setting unit 25 in accordance with an instruction from the internal bus 22.

  The radio wave radiated from the antenna 21 of the mobile device 11 is received by the receiving unit 21 via the test antenna 17, demodulated into a digital signal by the demodulating unit 26, and the original digital information by the decoding unit 27. And finally output to the internal bus 22. The reception level of the reception signal received by the reception unit 21 is detected by the level detection unit 28 and output to the internal bus 22.

A printer drive circuit 34 connected to the communication interface 35, a communication interface 35 connected to the control computer 36 via the LAN 37, an operation panel 38, and an input / output circuit 40 connected to the display panel 39 are connected.
The control computer 36 is used when the wireless terminal test apparatus is remotely operated via the LAN 37.

  For example, a test procedure memory 41, a communication procedure memory 42, a test parameter memory 43, a test result memory 44, and a mobile device information memory 45 are formed in the main storage unit 32 constituted by RAM, HD, and the like.

  In the test procedure memory 41, for example, as shown in FIG. 2, the test procedure of each test performed by the wireless terminal test apparatus on the mobile device 11 is stored. For example, in the “call” test in the protocol test, an operation command for the operation panel 14 is sent to the mobile device 11 via the communication interface 29 and the USB terminal 15 to cause the mobile device 11 to execute a “call” operation. Then, the reception unit 21 receives the “call” radio wave of the mobile device 11 and evaluates whether the mobile device 11 has correctly performed the “call” operation. Further, in the “incoming call” test, the radio wave of the “incoming call” signal is transmitted to the mobile device 11 via the transmission unit 20, and the mobile device 11 receives the radio wave of the “incoming call” signal and correctly It is evaluated through the USB terminal 15 and the communication interface 29 that “incoming call” has been made.

As described above, when the transmission / reception level test for the mobile device 11 is performed, the coupling degree of the RF (high frequency) signal depends on the position and shape of the antenna, impedance characteristics, etc. for each model of the mobile device 11. Therefore, it is necessary to correct the transmission / reception level value measured for each model of the mobile device 2 to be measured. Correction values for each model of the mobile device 11 for this correction are stored in the test parameter memory 43 as test parameters.

  In this test parameter memory 43, other types of tests caused by the difference in the specifications of each mobile device 11 as well as the test parameters of the coupling degree of the RF (high frequency) signal at the antenna are included in the test parameter memory 43, as necessary.
