At the forthcoming Mobile World Congress (MWC 2017), Rohde & Schwarz will present its T&M equipment for 5G, LTE-Advanced, IoT and IP communications.
Rohde & Schwarz, a Munich, Germany-based technology company, targets its latest test solutions for chipsets, components and devices as well as mobile networks to support the development of mobile technology.
At the mobile network testing booth #6B50, Rohde & Schwarz and its subsidiary SwissQual, will display the latest developments in mobile network testing technology for applications such as benchmarking, network optimization, field services and service quality monitoring.
Device and infrastructure testing
At its device and infrastructure testing booth, Rohde & Schwarz will display its latest T&M solutions for chipsets, devices and network components for LTE/LTE-Advanced and 5G standards. Rohde & Schwarz will devote a large part of the booth to IoT. Visitors will also be able to view test solutions for radiocommunications in automobiles and for secure IP communications.
Rohde & Schwarz said it’s presenting 5G test solutions in the 28 GHz spectrum band. R&S SMW200A will generate 5GTF candidate waveforms and R&S FSW signal analyzer with an internal bandwidth of up to 1.2 GHz will analyze them. The new R&S NRPM OTA power measurement solution allows T&M specialists to measure and calibrate the power of beamforming antennas and antenna arrays in the far field.
Rohde & Schwarz said the R&S CMW500 supports 5CC 4×4 MIMO transmissions with a data rate of up to 2 Gbit/s in the field of RF tests on LTE-Advanced components.
Rohde & Schwarz’s testing solutions for the Internet of Things (IoT) will feature narrowband IoT application tests in line with the latest 3GPP Release 13 specifications.
Rohde & Schwarz will present other solutions for measuring the battery lifetime of IoT components and embedded designs under realistic network conditions and for the new Bluetooth 5 standard.
Rohde & Schwarz, at the mobile network testing booth, will create network engineering lab, outdoor drive test, operation center and a base station to demonstrate test solutions in their application environments.
