The cell trade is assembly in Barcelona at Cell World Congress from February 27 to March 2, 2023. On the Fira Gran By way of in corridor 5, sales space 5A80, Rohde & Schwarz will showcase all kinds of main take a look at improvements, masking three principal themes: take a look at options to speed up 5G, non-public community efficiency and high quality, and automotive connectivity.
Take a look at options to speed up 5G
5G companies have change into mainstream within the early-adopting international locations, nevertheless, the total potential of the brand new know-how will unfold with excessive efficiency 5G stand-alone deployments, non-public and industrial networks, and new units supporting Launch 17 lowered functionality (RedCap NR) or non-terrestrial networks (NTN) enabling fully new use circumstances. On this context, the 5G ecosystem has to grasp a fair broader vary of challenges, from enabling units to combination and maintain massive numbers of band combos effectively to low energy consumption and extremely delicate transceivers that may obtain and ship alerts from and to area. Rohde & Schwarz has a number of state-of-the-art take a look at options exhibited at MWC2023 that deal with these challenges. They vary from R&D to manufacturing of units and infrastructure gear – and canopy all the mandatory levels for a community operator.
Guests can expertise a number of demonstrations based mostly on varied use case tailor-made {hardware} configurations for the R&S CMX500 one-box signaling tester, the take a look at platform from Rohde & Schwarz for your complete worth chain of 4G/5G gadget testing:
- Person expertise end-to-end take a look at of 5G based mostly digital and prolonged actuality functions (VR/XR)
- 5G VoNR audio high quality POLQA® measurements built-in into the take a look at platform
- LTE/NR mobile gadget service aggregation band mixture testing as much as 10CC (FR1/FR2) out of a single field tester
- 5G RedCap gadget testing, from R&D to conformance
- 5G FR2 RF conformance testing underneath excessive temperature situations over-the-air together with the R&S ATS1800C CATR based mostly mmWave take a look at chamber and a novel temperature bubble setup.
In infrastructure gear, Rohde & Schwarz will showcase the newly launched R&S PVT360A efficiency vector tester. Combining sign technology and evaluation in a single instrument, it’s the supreme resolution for non-signaling testing of 5G FR1 small cells, base stations and for RF part characterization and manufacturing.
As 5G networks roll out, cell community operators are specializing in community high quality of service and high quality of 1/3 expertise (QoS/QoE). Rohde & Schwarz will exhibit its subsequent technology benchmarking resolution to considerably scale back complexity and prices for community benchmarking campaigns whereas enabling NWOs to realize extra worth out of their collected knowledge. Final however not least, Rohde & Schwarz could have a full end-to-end reside streaming demonstration in collaboration with Qualcomm Applied sciences showcasing the supply of content material to smartphone units through superior reside Broadcast/Multicast capabilities over 5G.
Wi-fi units all the time have relied on non-cellular applied sciences. The following technology of WLAN, Wi-Fi 7, is changing into extra highly effective, environment friendly, but additionally extra advanced. To deal with the testing wants, Rohde & Schwarz will current at MWC2023 a Wi-Fi 7 take a look at setup with the R&S CMP180 and a Wi-Fi 7 gadget supporting IEEE 802.11be-compliant operation together with 4×4 MIMO. Utilized MIMO and MLO schemes of Wi-Fi 7 demand excessive efficiency and scalable take a look at options like the brand new R&S CMP180, which comes outfitted with two analyzers, two mills and two occasions eight RF ports in a single field, plus the chance to scale up by stacking a number of testers in a R&S CMPflexx setup.
Trying past 5G, Rohde & Schwarz may also exhibit various concise options in Barcelona which can be already enabling 6G analysis from the D band to Terahertz, resembling the brand new R&S FE170ST/SR D band frontend extensions. The totally different take a look at setups cowl developments in 6G know-how, resembling articifial intelligence and machine studying (AI/ML) or joint communications and sensing (JCAS).
Making certain non-public community efficiency and high quality
5G non-public networks allow new and progressive functions for a lot of industries, whereas offering essential options for efficiency, excessive reliability, low latency and safety. Rohde & Schwarz has specialised take a look at options that put together, deploy, and function non-public networks to fulfill high quality of service and high quality of expertise (QoS/QoE) specs for human and machine end-users. An attention-grabbing drone prototype show with embedded Qualipoc capabilities reveals how enterprises will be capable to use unmanned aerial autos (UAVs) for web site inspections to gather efficiency knowledge about their non-public networks even in Past-
line-of-sight (BLOS) situations.
Different Rohde & Schwarz options function a configurable interactivity take a look at, verifying whether or not a non-public community is prepared for a selected software inside verticals resembling Trade 4.0 in sensible factories or essential infrastructure. By emulating community load and visitors patterns, customers can decide reasonable community latency and loss outcomes for the chosen non-public community software and confirm the community’s potential to assist demanding use circumstances. MWC guests can study these and different cell community testing options on the Rohde & Schwarz sales space.
Take a look at options for dependable automotive connectivity
The rising crossover from the cell to the automotive trade might be seen in mobile applied sciences utilized in autos to allow autonomous driving. Rohde & Schwarz is leveraging its huge expertise and experience in wi-fi applied sciences to offer the automotive trade with options for sensible mobility functions within the type of take a look at and measurement programs for the whole automotive connectivity ecosystem. All related wi-fi requirements are lined, from ultra-wideband (UWB) to C-V2X, GNSS and 5G. Producers of ADAS chipsets, modules and programs on the RF, protocol and software ranges can come to the Rohde & Schwarz sales space to study the proper take a look at options for his or her growth and manufacturing.
