The AD-HTS644 from Adaura Technologies is a 64-channel handover test system designed to recreate real-world wireless conditions in a controlled lab environment. Operating from 500 to 6000 MHz, it enables engineers to simulate the effects of distance, fading, and interference with high precision, making it well suited for evaluating device performance across Wi-Fi, LTE, and 5G networks.
At the core of the system are 512 attenuators delivering up to 95 dB of attenuation with fine 0.25 dB resolution across 64 independently controlled RF channels. This high channel density allows the AD-HTS644 to model complex multi-path and multi-link scenarios, supporting advanced MIMO testing, handover behavior analysis, and protocol validation. With support for input power up to 28 dBm and a VSWR of less than 2:1, the system is built to handle demanding RF test environments.
The platform is designed for flexibility and ease of use, featuring a graphical user interface that allows users to program fixed attenuation levels, swept attenuation profiles, and realistic fading scenarios. It also supports USB and Ethernet connectivity, along with a keypad interface, enabling seamless integration into automated test setups. Power can be supplied via a standard 5 V input or through IEEE802.3at Class 2 Power over Ethernet (PoE), simplifying deployment in lab environments.
Housed in a rack-mountable enclosure with N-type and SMA connectors, the AD-HTS644 is suited for semiconductor validation, automated test equipment (ATE), and MIMO radio fading simulation. By enabling precise control over signal conditions, it allows device manufacturers and network engineers to test handover performance, improve system robustness, and optimize RF designs before real-world deployment.
