MediaTek has selected Keysight Technologies’ 5G new radio (NR) device test solutions to validate the radio frequency (RF) performance of 5G devices equipped with multiple input, multiple output (MIMO) and Massive MIMO antenna technologies.
Keysight’s 5G NR device test solutions enable MediaTek to design, develop and validate 5G modem platforms.
“MIMO test capabilities and access to 5G NR 3GPP Release 16 test cases enable MediaTek to rapidly introduce chipsets for advanced 5G applications such as gaming, multimedia and live streaming of high-definition video,” Mark Wallace, SVP of Global Sales at Keysight Technologies, said.
“MediaTek has worked with Keysight platforms to help facilitate our technological advancements that empower our wide-ranging 5G products,” said Ho-Chi Hwang, general manager of Wireless Communication System and Partnerships at MediaTek.
MediaTek used Keysight’s 5G Network Emulation Solutions to simulate radio channel conditions and automate validation of 5G devices in compliance to the latest specifications set by global standards organizations, including 3GPP and CTIA. The toolset also addresses carrier acceptance test (CAT) plans mandated by major mobile operators.
