- Reduce product development time
- Detect performance variations
- Decrease the number of hardware builds
- Release time and money to other testing
Benefits compared to Field Regular Testing
✓ Affordable: release time and money to another testing
✓ Fast: cut down GPS field testing time to one day
✓ Accurate: test the device in a reliable environment
Verkotan Patent – Testing Method and Arrangement For GPS Positioning Measurements
✔ The invention discloses a test method and arrangement for testing GNNS signals in a test chamber. The test chamber walls have transmitting antennas that transmit simulated satellite signals.
✔ Dynamic satellite movements are simulated to create a true satellite signal. All visible satellites are considered to create simulated GPS signals across the whole virtual sky. The device under the test is attached to a moving and rotating body phantom located in the center of the chamber.
✔ Radio channel properties are modeled according to real-life environments and programmed into a real-time channel emulator and then transmitted to the antennas in the chamber.
✔ Main application areas are sport watches, wearable health products, animal tracking and any device needing accurate positioning.

Over-the-Air testing of millimetre waves
Millimetre wave 5G technology provides lower latency, greater speed, and better quality of service. Nevertheless, millimetre waves pose also new challenges to network connections due to the short wavelengths. What are these problems, how are they solved and how can Verkotan help verify 5G millimetre wave connections? Continue reading to find out! Read more

Near Field to Far Field Transformation
Near field to far field (NF-FF) transformation means transforming the near field antenna radiation pattern measurement to far field radiation pattern. NF-FF transformation is used in OTA testing process of large antennas since the antenna performance must be measured in far-field condition, which is possible only in huge test chambers. Continue reading to find out more information on what NF-FF transformation is and how it is done! Read more
