System and method for precise navigation in testing wireless communication networks

摘要

The invention relates to a system and method for collecting and analyzing data of a wireless communication network including "micro" or "pico" wireless networks. The system collects wireless network performance data utilizing a monitoring device, correlates this information with the monitoring device's location and transmits this time-correlated information to a display device. The system tracks the monitoring device in real-time and provides precise location information of the monitoring device. The system has a built-in self-correction mechanism in a navigational module to verify a test operator's location. In addition, the system also includes an analysis device for post-test processing of the collected cellular radiotelephone network's performance information. The system is portable with long-lasting battery power.
