MediaFLO™
CETECOM expanded its service portfolio into the mobile multimedia arena with FLO™ certification testing for MediaFLO™ enabled devices. CETECOM Inc. is the first independent FLO certification lab to offer testing services for FLO Series I, II and III.
- FLO I testing verifies that the FLO device receiver is able to successfully decode FLO signals under various noise, interference and signal strength conditions. Such performance verification helps ensure that the user of the FLO device can successfully view FLO streams under a wide range of real-world network scenarios.
- FLO II testing verifies the correct behavior and performance of the services and features of the FLO application on a device. Functions such as activation, package subscription management, real-time stream viewing and clipcasting services are tested to ensure the FLO device behaves as expected by the network operators while giving a good experience to the end user.
- FLO III testing verifies that the use of FLO services does not degrade the operation of other wireless services provided by a device. Concurrent testing is performed by executing defined test cases while viewing FLO streams to verify that FLO operation does not impede other functions in a device. Other wireless technologies covered include CDMA, 1xEVDO, GSM/GPRS, WCDMA, Bluetooth and GPS.
