Interference waveform pattern software targets 5G and LTE testing
Tools which generate 3GPP interference waveform patterns for testing the receiver sensitivity and throughput of both 5G and LTE user equipment (UE) and modules using the Vector Signal Generator MG3710E are available from Anritsu.
Installing the Interference Waveform Pattern for 5G NR receiver test MX371055A and Interference Waveform Pattern for LTE receiver test MX371054A software in the MG3710E used in combination with the Radio Communication Test Station MT8000A and Radio Communication Analyzer MT8821C facilitates easy interference evaluation tests required by the 3GPP RF compliance test.
The tools are designed to support both in-house pre-testing for confirming compliance of Sub-6GHz 5G and LTE UE and modules before the official 3GPP compliance test as well as for R&D to improve receiver sensitivity and throughput performance.
Anritsu developed these two 3GPP-compliant interference waveform pattern tools to help engineers without specialist skills generate interference waveforms for easy interference tests.
In parallel with increasing 5G smartphone shipments, annual shipments of 5G customer premises equipment (CPE) are increasing based on mobile operator fixed wireless access (FWA) services. Manufacturers of automotive electronic equipment are developing 5G communications modules, such as the telematics control unit (TCU). Alongside the growing market for 5G UE and modules, the same manufacturers are developing LTE UE and modules for mobile operators who have not started 5G services yet.
