Wi-Fi Test


Making Carrier Grade Wi-Fi a Reality

Experts predict a staggering surge in mobile traffic with Wi-Fi playing an even greater role in consumer, business, and service provider networks. Vital real-time applications such as voice, streaming video, unified communications (UC), and patient monitoring are all going mobile, raising the bar for reliable performance higher and higher.

Set to break the wireless gigabit barrier, emerging 802.11ac infrastructures promise huge gains in speed and capacity. But to realize their full benefit, access points (APs) and controllers must become more intelligent and content-aware in addressing:

  • The growing capacity crunch with better RF design and improved data handling
  • The BYOD trend with policy-based application management for delay-sensitive applications
  • Increasing reliability requirements  as voice- and video-over Wi-Fi proliferate
  • Migration to the cloud with new levels of flexibility and quality assurance

  • Evolving 802.11ac functionality with MU-MIMO and 160MHz

To validate performance, makers of APs and wireless LAN (WLAN) controllers need to subject new designs to realistic application mixes, high-load conditions, and varying range, roaming, and interference scenarios. Your engineers need an efficient, cost-effective means of gauging the impact of new designs on existing WLANs, as well as the impact of the network on device performance—without requiring countless client devices to be bought and managed.

The Ixia Solution

WLAN infrastructure manufacturers, chip developers, service providers, and enterprises worldwide rely on Ixia Wi-Fi testing to optimize value and performance. Selected by Microsoft to certify APs for use in Lync deployments, Ixia’s IxVeriWave solution delivers:

  • Life-cycle test coverage from the lab to the field
  • Traffic generation combined with deep, client-level emulation
  • User-centric quality of experience (QoE) metrics for video, voice, web, UC,  and other applications
  • Reduced test cycles/cost of test  through automation and repeatability
  • Comprehensive performance testing measuring throughput, range, roaming, interoperability, failover
  • Breakthrough L1-7 802.11ac testing combining RF testing, impairment tools, traffic generation, and channel modeling
  • Industry-best realism with device finger-printing emulating common Wi-Fi clients  
  • Full standard feature sets including vital 802.11ac MU-MIMO test
  • Site readiness assessments that evaluate true WLAN capacity and end-user QoE versus just AP signal strength
