Abstract

A method of examining a test apparatus for a wireless network device is performed with a computer apparatus, a vector signal analyzer, and a vector signal generator and includes a signal receiving/transmitting step and a result outputting step. A transmitting signal test value and a receiving signal test value of the wireless network device test apparatus are measured by transmitting a reference signal of the vector signal generator and performing a receiving procedure of the wireless network device test apparatus and by transmitting a test signal of the wireless network device test apparatus and performing a receiving procedure of the vector signal analyzer, respectively. After the computer apparatus outputs an error of the wireless network device test apparatus and a comparison table of standard tolerance. Accordingly, the method enables self-testing to be performed and thereby dispenses with high fees charged by examination institutions for examining the test apparatus.

Dependent claims

A method of examining a test apparatus for a wireless network device, using a computer apparatus, a vector signal analyzer, and a vector signal generator, the method comprising:

a signal receiving/transmitting step for obtaining a transmitting signal test value and a receiving signal test value of the test apparatus, the signal receiving/transmitting step essentially comprising:
a signal receiving test step, wherein the computer apparatus controls the vector signal generator to generate and send a reference signal carrying a transmitting signal reference value to the test apparatus, such that the test apparatus generates and sends the receiving signal test value to the computer apparatus, thereby allowing the computer apparatus to produce a signal receiving test result report;
and
a signal transmitting test step, wherein the computer apparatus controls the test apparatus to generate and send a test signal carrying the transmitting signal test value to the vector signal analyzer, such that the vector signal analyzer generates and sends a receiving signal reference value to the computer apparatus, thereby allowing the computer apparatus to produce a signal transmitting test result report;
and
a result outputting step for sending a comparison table comparing an error data of the test apparatus and a standard tolerance data based on the signal receiving test result report and the signal transmitting test result report.
