Bluetooth and BLE RF Testing in Bengaluru

Outsourced Bluetooth and BLE RF verification for TWS, wearable and IoT makersWe run transmit and receive RF checks on Bluetooth and Bluetooth Low Energy radios in batches, on a LitePoint IQxel-M, and record each unit against your limits.

Schematic only.

Important: This is an in-house RF verification and test record service for design checks, production, validation, returned-unit analysis and post-repair testing. It is not NABL-accredited testing, and it is not WPC, BIS, FCC, CE or any other regulatory certification. Our records do not replace an accredited laboratory's report. For type approval or certification, please use an accredited or notified laboratory.

01Measure

What we measure on a Bluetooth radio

  • Output power
  • Modulation characteristics
  • Carrier frequency offset and drift
  • In-band emissions

Classic and Low Energy checks are offered depending on installed options, confirmed for each enquiry.

02Receive

Receiver sensitivity and packet error rate

Sensitivity and packet error rate at set levels, where your firmware gives a receive test mode.

03Batches

TWS, wearable and hearable batches

We handle lots of earbuds, wearables and IoT boards with a record per unit. For power profiling of the same device, see our battery drain and charger testing service.

What you supply: the devices or boards, test firmware or a vendor test tool that puts the radio into transmit and receive test modes, a golden sample, RF connector or fixture access, and your test plan with limits. Without a test mode we cannot drive the radio.

04Limits

What we do not do

  • Receiver blocking and selectivity tests that need external sources
  • Protocol or Bluetooth qualification testing
  • Certification of any kind

We run RF verification only.

05Record

What you receive

A per-unit and per-lot test record (PDF with a CSV data file): unit ID, set conditions, measured values, your limits, pass or fail, instrument model, software version, date and operator name. We report what we measure.

90Questions

Frequently asked questions

What is wireless connectivity RF testing?

RF testing of a Wi-Fi or Bluetooth device measures what its radio transmits and how well it receives, for example output power, signal quality (EVM), spectral mask, frequency error and receiver sensitivity. We connect each device to the tester by cable in a shielded setup, run your test mode, and record every measured value against your limits.

Which Wi-Fi and Bluetooth standards can you test?

Per the datasheet, the IQxel-M covers Wi-Fi 802.11a/b/g/n/ac in the 2.4 and 5 GHz bands and Bluetooth including Low Energy, depending on installed options. The datasheet does not list Wi-Fi 6, 6E or 7, or the 6 GHz band, so we do not offer them. We confirm standards and channels before agreeing a test plan.

What do I need to supply for testing?

Please supply the devices or boards, a way to put each into transmit and receive test modes through firmware or a vendor test tool, a golden sample, an RF connector or fixture, and your test plan with limits. Without a test mode we cannot drive the radio. We can help define the fixture and the script on request.

Are your test records certificates (NABL, WPC, BIS, FCC or CE)?

No. We provide in-house RF verification and a test record. We are not a NABL-accredited laboratory, and our records are not WPC, BIS, FCC, CE or any other regulatory certification. For type approval or certification, please use an accredited or notified laboratory. Our records support your own pre-checks and production quality control.
