Anritsu Corporation has released its new SmartStudio NR IP Performance MX800071A software for the MT8000A radio test station, which improves the efficiency of data throughput testing on 5G user equipment.
5G is widely used for services such as fixed Wireless Access (FWA), providing a "last mile" connection from the nearest base station to the subscriber's building. Anritsu developed the MX800071A to simplify and optimize the data throughput tests needed to develop 5G-based client hardware (CPE) used for FWA.
Background of the development
The increased demand for remote work and home entertainment is driving the development of 5G use cases that provide high-speed, high-bandwidth communications, with applications such as FWA being among the most successful. The development of CPE for FWA and wireless communication modules embedded in CPE requires testing data throughput using various sets of communication parameters. However, developers face difficulties in setting up, which requires special knowledge, which reduces the efficiency of the development process and increases its cost. The MX800071A solves these problems by simplifying and optimizing complex parameter settings, helping to improve the effectiveness of tests.
Support for various tests using the base station simulator
Working with the base station simulator, the MX800071A can configure the 4G and 5G SA/NSA radio communication environment to test data throughput.
Easy-to-use interface
Easy-to-configure testing parameters eliminate the need for special knowledge of complex protocols.
High connection reliability
The MX800071A has been tested with a wide range of 4G and 5G modem chipsets and wireless communication modules, providing excellent connectivity to most 4G and 5G UE networks.
