Abstract | ||||
The automated drive testing of mobile base station performance is the topic of this research. It necessitates having solid understanding of mobile communication systems and drive testing automation. Because the fourth generation (GSM) of mobile communication systems is more readily available, It has been decided to test it after surveying other mobile communication systems and design automated performance testing. For mobile communication network access, the SIMCom company's GSM module SIM900 is chosen. Quality level, power level, received signal strength, and bit error rate during a voice contact are the factors that need to be checked. The completed project is a PC running a MATLAB software and a GSM module connected via USB and a serial cable. Utilizing MATLAB and a graphical user interface (GUI), the test program is put into practice. It can capture and analyze the tested parameters and comparing them to a reference value before reporting the test result (PASS/FAIL). | ||||
