nRF91 with R&S BTS(Bast Station Simulator)

[kk2mkk]

Hi,

Do you guys test the the nRF91 modem with any kind of Bast Station Simulator? since i dont have any CatM1/NB network in my region most of the time i need to rely on R&S CMW500 call box.

I was wondering how i can test the sample application "http_application_update" which need access to a public internet.

Regards

Hi KK,

Yes, we do tests with the nRF9160 different kinds of base station simulators and also the CMW500. 
If you have the Data Application Unit (DAU) on your CMW500 you can set up your own servers e.g. an HTTP server and then set up your own IP-subnet which you can connect to with the nrf9160.
You would need to modify the HTTP sample to be able to connect to your server.

Please check out the FOTA download documentation.

Martin - Can you please name other simulator you use? we are looking to buy a SDR box like (PICO BTS, AMARI Callbox etc..) which are of lowcost and scalable, if you can name one which you been using that gives me confidence to make a procurement, and the CMW call box which i use is bit expensive and it doesn't support multiple UEs.

CMW is good for RF related testing not for application end.

thanks in advance
