Description

MT8852B Bluetooth Test Set with Basic Rate, Enhanced Data Rate (EDR) and low energy measurement capability.

The Anritsu MT8852B Bluetooth Test Set is the market leading RF measuring instrument for design proving and production test of a wide range of products that integrate Bluetooth technology, including; phones, headsets, computers, audio-visual and gaming products as well as modules. In production, a single key press initiates a measurement script that tests a device in less than 10 seconds.

8 Bluetooth Basic Rate and 6 Bluetooth EDR transmitter and receiver test cases are supported in the MT8852B Bluetooth Test Set. EDR test cases supported include Relative Transmit Power, Carrier Frequency Stability/Modulation Accuracy, Differential Phase Encoding, Sensitivity, and BER Floor Performance.

The introduction of the new Bluetooth low energy specification opens up a whole new range of applications including sports and fitness monitoring and health and wellbeing sensors. The new MT8852B low energy measurement option adds 6 low energy test cases to the standard product. These new test cases can be run as part of a test script so that test program creation is simplified and test times are minimized.

For audio measurement, the MT8852B supports all three codec air interfaces (µ-law, A-law and CVSD) on up to three SCO audio channels. It offers comprehensive testing facilities integrated within a Bluetooth wireless technology test set. Rear-panel jack-plug connectors provide analog inputs and outputs for all three audio channels.

The Adaptive Frequency Hopping (AFH) option facilitates analysis of interference from, and co-existence with, interfering signals such as WLAN. This option provides graphical displays of FER and masked channels when interfering signals are introduced, allowing optimization of hardware designs.

  • FAQ
  • We are using the MT8852B and when using the front panel to view the extended data, I can see 'f2 pass% value per tx frequency. The programming command to read back the 'f2 pass% is ORESULT TEST, 1.MI. Is the value read back a average of all 3 TX frequencies or is it just one of the frequencies. Can I read back all three frequencies?
