In partnership with certification specialist Sulis Consultants, Roke Manor Research Ltd. has launched its Regulatory Compliance and Performance Optimisation Service to minimise re-design costs and accelerate product development time. The aim is to deliver accelerated product development by minimising the requirement for re-designs and multiple test cycles.


The service is uniquely scalable, allowing developers of multi-mode mobile products to choose from a range of design consultancy services and pre-compliance testing, through to a complete certification package. The scalability element makes the service suitable for both integrated development assistance and inclusion within collaborative partnerships or design ecosystems.

The test facilities available at Roke include a shielded EMC anechoic chamber, with a working distance of 3 m, and CTIA compliant anechoic chamber, both working up to 18 GHz, and suitable for tests including EMC and RF. SAR and ESD facilities are also available.

Access to the company’s multi-disciplined on-site engineering team provides an immediate resource for analysis and solutions before the design is complete and the final expensive phase of certification testing starts. For products that have failed compliance testing, a ‘Find and Fix’ failure analysis service can identify points of failure and resolve them as fast and economically as possible.
