Abstract
System and method for testing transmission and reception performance of a data packet signal transceiver device under test (DUT). Data packet signals transmitted by a tester with a tester transmit output power (TTOP) contain trigger frames that include data corresponding to a reported tester transmit power (RTTP) of the data packet signals, and a desired received signal strength (TRSS) of DUT data packet signals to be received by the tester. Based on received signal strength of the tester data packet signals reported by the DUT (DRSS), responsive DUT data packet signals having a DUT transmit output power of RTTP−DRSS+TRSS. Successive repetitions of such tester and DUT data packet signals for multiple combinations of values of the TTOP, RTTP and DRSS enable testing transmission and reception performance of the DUT, including determining minimum and maximum DUT transmission power levels, with minimal signal interactions between tester and DUT.
