Aeroflex Donates Wireless Test Equipment to London University
Published on:
University College London (UCL) has opened a new Wireless Communications Laboratory, which has been equipped with £1.5 million worth of test equipment donated by Aeroflex.
Aeroflex already has an established relationship with UCL, having provided financial support and work placements for a postgraduate student who has subsequently been employed by Aeroflex at its Stevenage R&D facility. Members of Aeroflex staff regularly contribute to the lecture programme, and the company continues to offer placements to UCL students.
Aeroflex also made a similar endowment worth almost £1 million in September 2011 to Lancaster University's School of Computing and Communications.
"Our relationship with Aeroflex, and the opportunities it provides for our students, helps to prepare them for their future careers as well as enhancing our worldwide academic reputation." said Professor Izzat Darwazeh, the Head of the Communications and Information Systems Group in UCL's Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering.
The equipment in the new laboratory includes two of Aeroflex's TM500 LTE Test Mobiles for emulating user equipment as well as three Digital Radio Test Sets for handset and terminal testing.
