EMITE and Rohde & Schwarz Enhance OTA Measurements for Wi-Fi 7 and 5G RedCap: A Comprehensive Testing Solution for Next-Generation Wireless Technologies
EMITE and Rohde & Schwarz are working together to improve EMITE's Over-the-Air (OTA) measurement solutions by incorporating the newest test features of the R&S CMX500 multi-technology, multi-channel signaling tester. This integration allows for support of LTE, FR1, and FR2, as well as compliance with the latest WLAN standard IEEE 802.11be and 5G RedCap.
EMITE's advanced over-the-air chambers can now be used in conjunction with the advanced testing capabilities of the R&S CMX500 one-box signaling tester from Rohde & Schwarz. This radio communication tester can test a wide range of devices, including those using LTE, 5G NR FR1 up to 8 GHz, FR2 millimeter wave frequency up to 50 GHz, and the latest 5G RedCap technology. It also supports non-cellular technologies like Wi-Fi 7, all within a single instrument. Through this partnership, EMITE's customers have access to a comprehensive solution for accurately evaluating the performance of Wi-Fi 7 and 5G Red Cap devices.
The advanced OTA chambers from EMITE are fully prepared to meet the demanding testing needs of both current and upcoming wireless technologies. The next phase of the partnership involves exploring the addition of test capabilities for NB-IoT NTN and NR NTN, which are already supported by the R&S CMW500 and R&S CMX500.
The upcoming IEEE 802.11be standard, also known as Wi-Fi 7, represents the latest advancement in Wi-Fi technology. It is created to achieve significantly higher data speeds compared to the current IEEE 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6/6E). With the capability to handle tens of gigabits of data per second and minimal delays, Wi-Fi 7 caters to the increasing need for ultra-high-definition video streaming, as well as virtual reality and augmented reality experiences.
RedCap is a technology included in 3GPP Release 17 that falls under the category of 5G. It is a more affordable option compared to 5G eMBB, offering mid-range data speeds, low power usage, simple design, and the capacity to connect a large number of devices. These features make it a desirable choice for IoT applications.
David A. Sánchez-Hernández, the CEO of EMITE, expressed the company's dedication to providing top-quality products and ensuring customer satisfaction. He announced the exciting upgrade of their testing chambers with the R&S CMX500, which will allow customers to test devices according to the IEEE 802.11be standard and Red Cap devices. This partnership highlights EMITE's commitment to offering advanced testing solutions that meet the changing needs of the telecommunications industry.
Christoph Pointner, who holds the position of Senior Vice President of Mobile Radio Testers at Rohde & Schwarz, expressed his excitement about the enhanced partnership with EMITE. By combining their technology with EMITE's OTA chambers, customers can be assured that their devices have undergone thorough testing to ensure they meet high standards of reliability and efficiency. This has been made possible by integrating the R&S CMX500 signaling tester into EMITE's portfolio.
