The Anite baseband processor forms the heart of the SAT single testing platform, common across Anite's entire suite of testing toolsets. SAT supports Anite's SAS, CT and DT toolset suites and therefore provides a stable, consistent base on which a complete test strategy can be built. It effectively represents a common, single platform for Anite's entire toolset suite for those wishing to carry out handset and chipset development, integration, conformance and interoperability testing.
SAT supports industry standards and protocols as they evolve consistently across the entire toolset.
Anite's testing toolsets already support High Speed Packet Access (HSPA), the protocol for the next generation of 3G telephony, and a wide range of industry protocols such as GSM, GPRS and W-CDMA.
The industry ecosystem for handset development, comprising chip vendors, handset manufacturers and mobile network operators, face a multitude of challenges each time a new handset is introduced to the market.

Testing for product conformance and interoperability is a crucial process that mitigates risks associated with product failure and recall.
time to market pressures are also growing as competition in the mobile handset space becomes more fierce.
'The mobile telephony industry has traditionally been extremely fragmented with hundreds of companies often working in isolation'.
'This creates severe bottlenecks and complications when trying to bring new products to market', said Lance Hiley, Anite Marketing Director.
'A single, common platform that can be used by all parties and from one end of the product cycle to the other, will help hugely in binding together dispersed development and testing activities'.
'Anite's single platform approach will allow users to improve their design, development and test costs and also reduce time to market'.
Anite's toolsets include a high degree of automation and simulation features which significantly speed up the testing process.
Automation negates the need to manually run repetitive series of test procedures while simulation cuts down the time and costs associated with field trials on live networks that aren't readily available for the newest protocols.
Anite actively participates in the industry's definition and development of 2.5G and 3G testing requirements so is ideally placed to help equipment manufacturers and network operators to test and certify products.
