Overview:

Providing proper GPS location coordinates is a necessity when performing wireless VQT testing (drive-by testing). Associating a GPS coordinate with the VQT test results gives the necessary information when determining why the voice quality in a certain area was good or poor. Using the optional GPS capability along with the GL VQuad™ application for Wireless VQT Testing, the user can obtain all necessary GPS location information.

This GPS information is recorded and added to the GL VQT report automatically. The user may search or sort on the GPS information in order to determine the good and poor reception areas. Also, as part of the VQT rating scale, one can better understand where the problematic wireless areas are located.

Functionality:

The GL GPS option includes the GPS application and a GPS receiver (easily mounted outside of the vehicle). The GPS application includes real-time GPS information including Velocity and True Course as well as the real-time location information that is reported directly to the GL VQT application:
