Want to improve your knowledge of 5G measurements? There are many factors to consider when doing power measurements and 5G signal demodulation. How would you like to better understand fundamentals of 5G such as signal bandwidths and frequency bands, monitoring latency, or how to do EMF measurements? Here's our top content to help you do your job better.

CPRI Cell Site Architecture, Configuration, and Results

Many cellular networks now deploy a distributed architecture where the traditional radio has been split into a baseband unit…or BBU…and remote radio head…the RRH. The BBU and RRH are typically connected with a fiber link conforming to the Common Public Radio Interface… or CPRI.

Finding an Interfering Signal Using MT1000A CPRI RF

Use the CPRI RF module for the MT1000A Network Master Pro. The MT1000A can be configured just for CPRI measurements or combined with the 10G transport module and OTDR module to create the most comprehensive and versatile fiber and transport tester available. In this video you’ll learn how easy it is to find interfering signals using CPRI RF.

Validating the Performance of Cellular Networks with CPRI Fiber Interfaces

How to Troubleshoot remote radio interference issues using the CPRI link, and determine if a tower crew should be called out. The most common causes of poor performance will be highlighted and best practice fault finding methodology explained.

Baseband units and remote radio heads are connected via general-purpose interfaces, most commonly the Common Public Radio Interface (CPRI), or in some cases the Open Base Station Architecture Initiative (OBSAI). With the rapid spread of smartphones and tablets together with many new Cloud services in the last decade, it’s essential to have the proper solution to handle this explosive growth in mobile data traffic.
