Anritsu will feature a cloud-based connected car system for fleet tracking at the Mobile World Congress (MWC 2015) in Barcelona next month.
The connected car system was developed at the Smart Systems Laboratory, University of Hertfordshire in the UK, and demonstrated together using satellite positioning technology GNSS Simulator from Spectracom.

The connected car demo shows a car’s diagnostics system connecting to the cloud via a simulated LTE network environment provided by the MD8475A, Anritsu’s mobile network simulator.
An application in the cloud enables a fleet manager on an internet-connected device to view the location and operating parameters of vehicles in the fleet in real time.
Anritsu said the MD8475A enables the university’s development team to test how the system’s in-car LTE modem would perform in mobile networks within a single simulator. Spectracom GNSS Simulator is providing the simulation of positioning data to provide location information to the system being tested.
The combination of the Anritsu MD8475A and the Spectracom GNSS Simulator provides will simulate any global location, and any type of cellular connectivity, to ensure correct operation of the system.
