Several key components of the physical layer are discussed in detail – including: multiple access schemes, numerology, channels, and signals – along with a discussion of a typical resource grid. Finally, a brief insight into MIMO, massive MIMO (mMIMO), and related antenna technology is provided.
Sub-6 GHz and mmWave 5G Field Measurements
This webinar focuses on the types of measurements needed for a proper 5G deployment, the challenges technicians will face, and how to solve them.
Making EIRP Measurements on 5G Base Stations
The introduction of active antenna systems on 5G base stations requires engineers installing and maintaining them to use alternative measurement methods, such as effective isotropic radiated power (EIRP) for transmitter power and beam verification. This application note highlights how the Anritsu Field Master Pro™ MS2090A facilitates the "over-the-air" (OTA) measurement of EIRP on active base stations using an accessory dual polarized waveguide antenna. Measurements are performed according to 3GPP specifications and are ideal for product design verification and field installations.
Real-Time Spectrum
The measurement fundamental to all spectrum analyzers is their ability to measure power inside a given bandwidth at a particular frequency and to display those measurements across a frequency span. Over time, various features beyond simple power measurements were added to provide additional visibility into signal behavior.
5G Spectrum: How Proper Testing Maximizes ROI
Mobile operators have spent $2.7 billion on 5G spectrum to meet the exploding demand due to emerging use cases. That investment can produce the greatest ROI only if the networks are properly deployed, installed, and maintained. That’s why the right test solutions are invaluable.
Test Strategies for 5G NR
5G is being rolled out on the global stage, bringing with it tremendous promise and a multitude of new applications. It also brings higher frequencies, denser networks, and other technological challenges. To ensure the successful operation of 5G, new test processes and solutions have been developed to help engineers verify designs and have confidence that their products are in compliance with industry standards.
