2018年2月9日,西門子宣布,已就收購Sarokal Test Systems Oy的相關(guān)事宜達(dá)成協(xié)議。Sarokal Test Systems Oy位于芬蘭奧盧,是為前傳網(wǎng)絡(luò)提供創(chuàng)新測試解決方案的供應(yīng)商。前傳網(wǎng)絡(luò)由位于蜂窩網(wǎng)絡(luò)“邊緣”的中央射頻控制器與射頻頭端(或天線塔)之間的鏈路組成。Sarokal的客戶包括芯片組供應(yīng)商、前傳設(shè)備制造商和電信運(yùn)營商,他們利用Sarokal的產(chǎn)品進(jìn)行從前期設(shè)計(jì)到實(shí)施再到現(xiàn)場測試的整個(gè)過程的4G和5G網(wǎng)絡(luò)設(shè)備的開發(fā)、測試和驗(yàn)證。
Siemens announced that it had reached an agreement on the acquisition of Sarokal Test Systems Oy. Sarokal Test Systems Oy, located in olu, Finland, is a supplier of innovative testing solutions for prequel networks.
Sarokal為4G和5G設(shè)計(jì)驗(yàn)證帶來獨(dú)一無二的前傳測試專門技術(shù)
Siemens PLM Software全球總裁兼首席執(zhí)行官Tony Hemmelgarn表示:“對(duì)Sarokal的收購將進(jìn)一步證明我們對(duì)EDA和IC行業(yè)的承諾。在成功收購Mentor Graphics的基礎(chǔ)上,我們持續(xù)加大戰(zhàn)略投資,充分利用Mentor的現(xiàn)有優(yōu)勢(shì),進(jìn)一步擴(kuò)大西門子面向IC行業(yè)的產(chǎn)品組合和服務(wù)。”
Sarokal的產(chǎn)品廣泛應(yīng)用于對(duì)各領(lǐng)域的傳輸規(guī)范的測試,其測試設(shè)備產(chǎn)品系列覆蓋了蜂窩網(wǎng)絡(luò)和有線傳輸系統(tǒng)測試的整個(gè)開發(fā)和維護(hù)流程,其技術(shù)專門用于射頻(RF)問題檢測?;谄鋵?duì)5G測試要求的預(yù)測,Sarokal的測試模型從一開始便設(shè)計(jì)為同時(shí)面向虛擬(數(shù)字化)環(huán)境和物理測試環(huán)境。

Sarokal首席執(zhí)行官Harri Valasma指出:“自成立以來,Sarokal便一直處于5G規(guī)范及其前傳網(wǎng)絡(luò)需求的開發(fā)前沿。5G規(guī)范旨在大幅提升移動(dòng)寬帶、網(wǎng)絡(luò)運(yùn)行和物聯(lián)網(wǎng)(IoT)通信的性能,而這需要全新的測試方法。加入西門子并將我們的技術(shù)融入Veloce仿真平臺(tái)后,我們將能夠更好地了解早期客戶采用5G技術(shù)的情況,這將幫助我們?cè)?G這一預(yù)計(jì)將快速增長的領(lǐng)域保持領(lǐng)先地位。”
The test equipment technology of Sarokal and the Veloce simulation platform of Mentor are combined to enable customers to verify 4G and 5G design in advance, and realize accurate and timely detection of silicon chips.
西門子的Mentor Emulation業(yè)務(wù)部門副總裁兼總經(jīng)理Eric Selosse則強(qiáng)調(diào):“Sarokal獨(dú)一無二的前傳測試專門技術(shù)的加入,將為我們Veloce仿真器的客戶帶來獨(dú)特優(yōu)勢(shì)。Sarokal的測試設(shè)備技術(shù)與Mentor的Veloce仿真平臺(tái)強(qiáng)強(qiáng)聯(lián)合,使客戶能夠提前對(duì)4G和5G設(shè)計(jì)進(jìn)行驗(yàn)證,實(shí)現(xiàn)準(zhǔn)確及時(shí)的前后硅片檢測。”
