Abstract :
In the drive to reduce wireless product development cycle times and costs, one area often neglected or left to the eleventh hour is regulatory compliance. Focusing on this area early in the development process and establishing regulatory compliance as a critical parameter of a product´s design reduces both time and costs prior to product release and drives a more rapid return on the R&D investment. This approach is termed design for compliance, and its benefits impact a company´s market, finances, and overall corporate viability.
