TÜV Rheinland: Wireless Lab in Sweden Receives Accreditation

Full range of wireless testing options
TÜV Rheinland has expanded its worldwide wireless network with the wireless laboratory acquired in 2017. In addition to Sweden, TÜV Rheinland also operates comparable IoT labs in Germany, Italy, Japan, Korea, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, India, the USA and the Netherlands.

Lund is the first of the TÜV Rheinland European wireless labs to specialize in IoT products. “In this laboratory, we offer our customers the entire range of wireless testing options, such as Sigfox, LoRa, ZigBee, 3GPP, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and Thread. The lab is also equipped with OTA chambers and SAR systems and even offers eCall testing,” adds Anders Nordlöf, Managing Director of the national subsidiary TÜV Rheinland Sweden AB.

eCall testing
eCall is the abbreviated version of “emergency call”. From March 31, 2018, manufacturers across the EU must install this automatic emergency call system for motor vehicles in all new car models and in new light-duty commercial vehicles. In the event of an accident, the vehicle sends a relevant notification to the emergency services, helping to initiate rapid rescue operations. “We see major potential in this development. As a state-of-the-art lab, which is TÜV Rheinland’s first in the world to offer eCall testing, we are continuing to expand our market position,” states Nordlöf.
