Global industry association Trusted Connectivity Alliance (TCA) has announced the launch of an eSIM Interoperability Service to promote increased confidence and trust across the eSIM ecosystem.

Many MNOs believe that in three to five years there will be hardly any devices holding traditional SIMs. To smooth the switch to eSIM and the appertaining mechanisms, Comprion has developed a new test system that is available now. 

An NFC oscilloscope unveiled by Comprion offers a selection of NFC and ISO triggers, individual envelope signal calculation. The NFC/ISO measurement features facilitate the evaluation of analogue NFC signals and consequently the development and integration of NFC-enabled devices

On the Embedded World, Comprion has launched their latest product line for NFC testing, the CL Development Line. It can be used for validating the interface design, for preparing the certification, for functional testing, and for verifying interoperability. You could think that a technology like NFC which is not brand-new would meanwhile work smoothly. “But that’s not the case!” says Dr. Michael Jahnich, Development Head fo...

By using Comprion's Design Validation Platform that helps to tune signal characteristics to the final operation conditions and the anticipated user behaviour, integrators of NFC modules can shorten development phases of NFC products drastically. Hajo Sandschneider, Marketing Director, Comprion, explained: “Design Validation Platform is the only system on the market that uses calibrated measurement instruments to automatically...

  A new post-processing software for easily visualising, measuring, analysing, and sharing analogue signals, named the COMPRION Analog Scope Viewer has been launched by test equipment manufacturer Comprion. The company claims that this is the only software of its kind, Comprion has integrated so-called quick measurements.

In line with the recently published GSMA SGP.23 test specification for Remote SIM Provisioning (RSP) of eUICCs in consumer devices, Comprion has announced the release of a corresponding device test bench. The GSMA SGP.23 test specification encompassed three items under test: eUICCs, devices, and servers.

eUICC Profile Manager, COMPRION’s software tool for efficient eUICC life cycle management, is enhanced by an additional connectivity option. The software allows over-the-air updates of eUICCs and their profiles by means of a simulated network. “Starting with the COMPRION eUICC Profile Manager release 1.2, the connection can now be established using the Anritsu MD8475A network simulator”, announces Jens Christoph, Director of the...

A test bench that contains all tests from the SIMalliance “eUICC Profile Package: Interoperable Format Test Specification, Version 2.1” has been released by Comprion. These tests check if the eUICC is able to interpret a profile in M2M and consumer devices environments correctly. 

  The expected test specification for Remote SIM Provisioning (RSP) of eUICCs in consumer devices is ready and was recently published by the GSMA.

The GSMA SGP.11 Off-card Interfaces Test Bench from COMPRION contains 74 tests. It helps server providers to prove that their SM-DP (Subscription Manager Data Preparation) or SM-SR (Subscription Manager Secure Routing) are compliant with the GSMA Test Specification SGP.11. It also ensures that the servers are compatible with each other.

A test bench for ensuring NB-IoT compliance of M2M devices has been announced by Comprion.Narrow band-IoT (NB-IoT) is a low-power wide area network radio technology created for the Internet of Things (IoT) and machine-to-machine (M2M) world. The Comprion NB-IoT USIM Test Bench will soon become mandatory for qualifying NB-IoT devices according to the Global Certification Forum (GCF).

Comprion says it is the first company to offer a test bench according to the new GSMA SGP.23 RSP Test Specification for consumer devices. The GSMA SGP.23 RSP eUICC Test Bench helps manufacturers of eUICCs and consumer devices to verify the correct functioning of the eUICC in terms of its remote SIM provisioning (RSP) capabilities.

At the telecommunications tradeshow Mobile World Congress taking place 27th February-2nd March in Barcelona, Comprion will focus on presenting testing solutions around the arising IoT world for both GSMA specifications: M2M and consumer devices. Comprion will show the new RSP M2M Test Platform for testing M2M Remote SIM Provisioning scenarios. 

  Comprion has announced that Cetecom’s laboratory in Milpitas has purchased their EMVCo PCD Analog Test Solution. The team in Milpitas will use it to offer terminal type approval services according to EMVCo version 2.6, which was activated on January 1st, 2017.

Comprion has announced qualification of its EMVCo PCD Analog Test Solution. “To prove the compliance of POS terminals, EMVCo maintains a set of specifications and approval services by accrediting laboratories worldwide”, Swantje Missfeldt, Product Manager for EMVCo solutions at Comprion, explains. EMVCo requires automation of testing for the physical interface using robots for accurate positioning.

It has been announced by Comprion that the Comprion Network Bridge – a software solution for end-to-end testing of remote SIM provisioning scenarios – has won the SESAMES Award in the Category 'Manufacturing & Test'. 

EMVCo has qualified Comprion’s PICC Analog Test Solution for the Version 2.6a. Swantje Missfeldt, EMVCo Product Manager at Comprion, explains, “Test laboratories, manufacturers of bank and credit cards as well as mobile phone vendors can use our solution to prove their products’ compliance with the latest EMVCo PICC analog standard.”  

RSP M2M Test Platform is the name of the new Comprion test solution enabling remote SIM provisioning (RSP) tests in a lab environment. Jens Christoph, in charge of eUICC M2M test solutions at Comprion, explains, “The solution consists of a modular set of server simulations providing SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) interfaces. Thanks to its modularity, RSP M2M Test Platform can be used to test each entity of the RSP architecture: eUICCs...

Comprion has launched a new software solution for interoperability testing: COMPRION Network Bridge. It facilitates the complex processing of remote administration scenarios in a lab environment using a controlled and lightweight setup. The SIM card – the secure element in mobile communication which is used for authentication and identification within the network – will be increasingly replaced by the eUICC, an embedded SIM that is fi...
