modified in the integrated equipment. For this reason, the antennas and the USIM
card interface circuits need to be re-tested in the overall-system certification.
Field test

The antenna performance-relevant field test is required due to changes in the
antennas and to test the equipment's functions and its interoperability with
networks on five networks run by different European operators. To be specific,
the field test tests the basic functions of the UE on actual networks and
determines whether the UE passes the testing according to the UE performance.
SIM/USIM test

USIM card interface circuits are re-designed in the integrated equipment, which
may result in changes in the electrical features of the USIM card interface. For
this reason, the USIM card interface circuits need to be re-tested. The SIM/USIM
test aims to verify the overall performance of SIM/USIM interface with appropriate
test instruments in accordance with the relevant 3GPP protocol requirements.
Huawei provides a test report of the product to be certified for the customers who
require the GCF certification. The test report is issued by an organization designated
for GCF certification. The test report covers the Protocol Implementation
Conformance Statement (PICS) and the test information on the product. The PICS is
a conformance statement of the product and a basis for GCF certification. The test
information includes the performed test items and results of the product. The test
organization can issue a certification report of the integrated equipment after
performing the required field test and SIM/USIM test based on the test report provided
by Huawei.
Terminal manufacturers who apply for the GCF certification of the terminals to be
integrated with Huawei modules must accomplish the following tasks:
1. Register as a member of the GCF.
The GCF certification is a DOC. Only GCF members can submit their DOC on the
GCF website. Contact the GCF if you need to join the GCF. Proceed with the
following steps if you are a GCF member.
2. Choose a test organization.
The GCF does not designate its test organizations. All test organizations that
meet the GCF test conditions can perform GCF tests. In this case, it is necessary
for manufacturers to choose a well-recognized test organization that provides
high quality and high efficiency services. The global test organizations 7layers,
SGS, and CETCOM are recommended. The recommended test organizations
have built various labs all around the world and work closely with the GCF and
the PTCRB. Therefore, the test organizations are able to provide high quality and
high efficiency test services and are widely recognized by operators.
3. Discuss test details with the test organization.
Provide the test organization with the test report of Huawei modules and the
modifications of the integrated equipment. The test organization then can
determine the detailed test items and determine the test schedule accordingly.
With the detailed test items and schedule, terminal manufacturers can determine
accurate plans of product development and marketing.
4. Perform overall-system certification.
The integrated equipment can pass the over-all certification test easily if Huawei's
design suggestions are complied with.
5. Obtain the test report and the DOC.
