Today's world is striving towards ever-present communications
- People are communicating at any time and in any place
- New wireless devices, services and applications are constantly being introduced
- These wireless services all use radio spectrum and require extensive testing, and often customer trialling, before launch.
Testing and trialling wireless devices is the smart choice
Test & Trial Ireland is ideal for many wireless applications:
- Fundamental wireless research
Universities and research centres can use the practical aspects of this programme to advance their wireless research. - Product Development and Testing
Manufacturers of wireless systems and components can use Test & Trial Ireland to test and develop new products. As all available frequency bands are considered under the programme, products can be tested for deployment in any global or regional market. - Product Demonstration and Network Functionality Testing
Vendors of wireless systems can demonstrate the real-life functionality of their products. Likewise, service providers can test the functionality of these products on their network prior to vendor selection. - Trials of innovative new services
Service providers can commercially trial new innovative services to garner valuable consumer feedback before committing to a commercial launch.
In partnership with the Centre for Telecommunications Value Chain (CTVR), Alcatel-Bell Labs Research Ireland has examined various next-generation wireless communications systems using Test and Trial Ireland.
"This programme gives researchers in Ireland a vital edge by allowing us to test our research ideas in a real life environment."
Dr Louis G Samuel, Executive Director, Bell Labs Ireland and the UK
