All-in-One Support for RF Measurements, Protocol Tests and Applications Tests in FR1 (to 7.125 GHz) and FR2 (Millimeter-Wave) Bands

With a 5G base station emulation function, a single MT8000A test platform supports both the FR1 (to 7.125 GHz), including band n41, and the FR2 (millimeter-wave) bands used by 5G. Combining it with the OTA Chamber enables both millimeter-wave band RF measurements and beamforming tests using call connections specified by 3GPP. In addition, the intuitive, state-machine-based GUI supports various application tests such as handover tests, quasi-normal and abnormal network tests. Moreover, maximum IP data throughput can be measured for a wide variety of band, CA, and MIMO combinations.

Flexible Platform using Modular Architecture

The leading-edge design with flexibility and scalability uses a modular architecture. As well as supporting 4x4 MIMO and 8CA implemented by eMBB (Enhanced Mobile Broadband), it provides a flexible environment for future 5G test requirements, including URLLC (Ultra-Reliable and Low Latency Communications) and mMTC (massive Machine Type Communications)

Supports Existing LTE Test Environment

A comprehensive test environment is provided by making use of Anritsu's LTE test platform offering leading-edge functions based on the company's long experience in this market. Easy configuration of a linked environment for simulating 5G and LTE NSA (non-standalone) makes best use of measurement assets, such as the customer's test environment, test scenarios, etc.

Supports Dynamic Spectrum Sharing (DSS) Condition

In DSS, the spectrum is allocated to both 4G and 5G by the scheduler intelligently, depending on the requirements. This is a much more efficient use of spectrum.

The MT8000A can measure throughput under DSS at several NR/LTE allocation conditions.

MT8000A Base Station Manufacturing Solution Features

The MT8000A is the ideal non-signaling RF test solution for manufacturing 5G base stations. Combination with the MX800045A and MX800046A software covers all the main Sub-6 GHz (FR1) and mmWave (FR2) frequency bands.

Up to Four TRx Ports for Efficient Production-Line Testing

With up to four installed TRx ports, the MT8000A handles both simultaneous and parallel measurements with ease, cutting test times, raising productivity, and reducing costs.

Simultaneous Measurement

The MT8000A support simultaneous measurement with up to four TRX ports and can cut test times for multi-antenna port base stations.

Parallel Measurement

The MT8000A supports independent parallel measurement with four (max.) TRX ports and can centralize test equipment to reduce costs. Unlike conventional systems requiring a test instrument for each test system, one MT8000A can handle up to four test systems.

Supports Both Sub-6 GHz (FR1) and mmWave (FR2) Band Measurements

Connecting the MT8000A and RF Converter (MA80003A) supports mmWave (FR2) measurements. The all-in-one MT8000A covers the main frequency ranges used by both the Sub-6 GHz (FR1) and mmWave (FR2) bands.

Features of Base Station Test Suite for NR mmWave MX800045A/Base Station Test Suite for NR Sub-6 GHz MX800046A

The Base Station Test Suite for NR mmWave MX800045A/Base Station Test Suite for NR Sub-6 GHz MX800046Am are non-signaling RF test software for production-line testing of 5G NR base stations. MX800045A/MX800046A software analyze downlink signals and measure RF characteristics for the 5G NR Sub-6 GHz (FR1) and mmWave (FR2) bands.

All-at-Once Signal Analysis and RF Characteristics Measurement

The MX800045A/MX800046A software can analyze frequency errors and EVM signals while measuring RF characteristics such as adjacent channel leakage power, OBE, etc. RF test times are shorter because there is no need to switch the signal analysis software and spectrum analyzer for each measurement item.

All-at-Once Multicarrier Analysis

The MX800045A/MX800046A software supports all-in-one multiple component carrier measurements. The characteristics of each single carrier can be measured quickly at the same time without needing to measure each single carrier separately.
