solutions with over-the-air chambers and test cases
Keysight Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: KEYS), a leading technology
company that helps enterprises, service providers and governments
accelerate innovation to connect and secure the world, has launched
a new test solution that optimizes the performance of 5G devices
that use MIMO* and massive MIMO technology to increase data
throughput and improve network capacity.
Keysight’s S8708A Advanced Performance Test Toolset enables an
ecosystem consisting of eighty-four 5G device vendors to validate
device performance under accurate and real-world conditions using
3D fading and mobility scenarios. Keysight’s new toolset includes
the company’s PROPSIM FS16 or F64 channel emulator, UXM 5G Wireless
Test Platform and 3D OTA multiprobe anechoic chambers, and supports
test cases specified by 3GPP for MIMO over-the-air (OTA) testing in
study item (TR38.827), which included contributions from
Keysight.
“Adding advanced performance test capabilities to Keysight’s
network and channel emulation solutions enables an ecosystem
investing in MIMO and massive MIMO technology to accelerate the
launch of high performing 4G and 5G devices,” said Kailash
Narayanan, vice president of Keysight and general manager of
Keysight's wireless test group. “Keysight’s system solution, which
includes 3D multiprobe anechoic chambers, provides for 5G device
performance optimization across the full protocol stack in a
frequency range 2 (FR2) OTA test environment.”
Keysight’s Advanced Performance Test Toolset, part of the
company’s suite of 5G device test solutions:
- uses common logging, analysis and channel modeling tools to
speed testing across the workflow in MIMO OTA test
environments.
- enables chipset and device makers, as well as test houses and
mobile operators, to validate beam management, MIMO antenna
performance and maximum data throughput of a 5G device across
different massive MIMO configurations and 3D special fading
conditions.
- allows users to gain access to geometric channel models with
high-capacity fading options as well as test cases specified by
3GPP across FR1 and FR2.
- enables users to verify how a device performs by stressing the
design in a 3D OTA test environment that uses multi-beam technology
and multiple angles of arrival (AoA) to create accurate and
realistic conditions.
*MIMO (multiple input, multiple output) – an antenna technology
for wireless communications in which multiple antennas are used at
both the source (transmitter) and the destination (receiver).
