DIAGNOSTIC & TESTING

MPI Industries is a full service contractor providing

diagnostic and testing solutions.

Antenna Line Sweeps/System Sweeps

Sweep generators sweep through frequencies to verify the resonate frequency of the antenna or cable being used, and the SWR (standing wave ratio) or reflected power at the various frequencies. This is a professional way to analyze an antenna and feed line to make sure they meet the manufacturers’ specifications. There are all kids of special equipment used in addition the sweep generator, like an oscilloscope, SWR bridge, and spectrum analyzer, etc.

PIM Testing

Passive InterModulation (PIM) testing is more important than ever. Today’s mobile handset users expect consistent high throughput from their devices and, consequently, push current networks to their limit. The Fourth generation (4G) networks feature an increased mobile data rate of 100 Mb/s and this higher transmission rate will expose PIM vulnerabilities in today’s networks like never before. Fourth generation FDD networks require superior network transmission fidelity, higher than previous generations. Network operators also face the challenge of maintaining customer loyalty in an unforgiving competitive arena. As such, good network PIM performance and PIM testing are now imperative.a

OTDR

An Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) is used in fiber optics to measure the time and intensity of the light reflected on an optical fiber. More to the point, it is used as a troubleshooting device to find faults, splices, and bends in fiber optic cables, with an eye toward identifying light loss.

Fiber Documentation

Fiber characterization (documentation) requires performing a comprehensive suite of tests that determine all of the key performance attributes of installed fiber infrastructure.
