MT8000A

All-in-One Support for RF Measurements and Protocol 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. With the SmartStudio NR MX800070A, various functional tests by GUI operation only without requiring difficult scenario development are supported, also combining it with the Shield Box MA8161A supports functional tests in FR2 bands.

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.

Key Features

  • All-in-One Support for RF Measurements and Protocol Tests in FR1 (to 7.125 GHz) and FR2 (Millimeter Wave) Bands
  • Supports mm-wave band RF measurements and beam forming tests combined use with the RF chamber.
  • Flexible Platform using Modular Architecture
  • Supports Existing LTE Test Environment
  • Supports various functional tests by GUI operation only without requiring difficult scenario development (SmartStudio NR MX800070A)

Anritsu MF6900A Fading Simulator

All-in-One Full Digital Fading Simulator Supporting LTE 2x2 MIMO 2-cell and 4x2 MIMO

The introduction of the LTE next-generation communication standard makes MIMO evaluation in a fading environment much more complex. Connecting the MF6900A Fading Simulator to the MD8430A Signalling Tester via dedicated digital interface to simulate a BTS greatly simplifies 3GPP LTE 2x2 MIMO and 4x2 MIMO fading tests

High Reproducibility and Maintainability due to Full Digital Baseband Processing

The MF6900A simulates fading using full digital baseband processing. As a result, high-reproducibility results are obtained using the same settings and complex MIMO power control settings are extremely easy and accurate. Moreover, complete elimination of all analog circuits supports easy maintenance and calibration-free stability.

All-in-One Unit Supports LTE 4x2 MIMO or LTE 2x2 MIMO↔W-CDMA/HSPA Dual Environment

One unit supports LTE 2x2 MIMO 2-cell or 4x2 MIMO tests and combination with the MD8430A Signalling Tester offers a simple test setup for intra-system LTE 2x2 MIMO handover or 4x2 MIMO tests


mf6900a_4x4_mimo

The MD8480C Signalling Tester for W-CDMA supports all-in-one LTE/W-CDMA inter-system handover tests (with MF6900A-001 option installed)


mf6900a_2x2_mimo

Easy Fading Setting using Dedicated Interface with MD8430A/MD8480C

mf6900a_display

The MF6900A Fading Simulator uses a dedicated digital connection with the MD8430A/MD8480C. Elimination of internal RF circuits eliminates power control settings, and the simple display supports intuitive use

In addition, fading setting is made easy just by calling preset fading profiles from MD8430A and MD8480C test scenarios, allowing chipset and UE protocol developers to run tests transparently without a deep understanding of fading settings.

Moreover, auto-synchronization at MD8430A and MD8480C slow clock operation eliminates repeated fading setting.

The current worldwide proliferation of 3G mobile services is promoting increasingly high-speed data packet access in the mobile communications environment. W-CDMA-based systems are starting to use HSPA Evolution*1 to achieve high data transfer speeds while GSM-based systems are using EGPRS*2. Demand for high-speed data services by mobile users worldwide is driving development of mobile terminals (UE) that can secure optimum data throughput under any conditions.

The MD8480C W-CDMA Signalling Tester is a base station simulator with ideal protocol development and test functions for developing 3.5G W-CDMA UE supporting HSPA Evolution. It has an air interface conforming to 3GPP specifications as standard and supports a full range of applications and protocol tests, coding/decoding processing, protocol sequence testing (registration, origination, termination, handover), voice and data communications testing (circuit switch, packet switch), and UE end-to-end testing*3 for chipsets and UE.

Moreover, adding options for GSM/GPRS/EGPRS base stations supports Inter-RAT handover tests between 3G/3.5G and 2G systems. The MD8480C is the ideal instrument for developing increasingly popular UMTS UE and high-performance chipsets and UE for HSPA/ EGPRS*4.

All-in-One Support for LTE and Other Communications Technologies

Cellular Technologies

All the world's main communications technologies, including triple-system LTE/W-CDMA/GSM mobiles and TD-LTE/TD-SCDMA/GSM as well as LTE/CDMA2000™ hybrids, can be tested using the all-in-one MD8475A/MD8475B (requires installation of optional units and software for each standard).

Other communication technologies includes W-CDMA/HSPA/HSPA Evolution/DC-HSDPA, GSM/(E)GPRS, CDMA2000™ 1X/1xEV-DO Rev. A. and TD-SCDMA/TD-HSPA. The MD8475A also supports VoLTE services and call-processing for multimode LTE devices.


Scenario-less Smartphone Tests using SmartStudio

SmartStudio

Unlike earlier base station simulators requiring time-consuming creation of complex scenarios, the Anritsu SmartStudio interactive user interface eliminates the need to create scenarios, smoothing UE testing.


Verifying Existing Smartphone Functions using SmartStudio Manager

Smartphone development requires verification of existing functions. Testing of items that have already been tested many times over, such as voice tests and SMS sending/receiving, are automated using SmartStudio Manager to improve development efficiency.


Supports Versatile Smartphone Tests

Test Environment

A full line of test environments are supported for the general mobile verification phase, such as max. throughput performance tests, stress tests, and battery consumption tests of multisystem LTE mobiles using 2x2 MIMO, as well as CS-Fallback, call connection reliability and stability tests at handover, communication tests at low RF power, and service verification using LTE Multiple PDN and SMS in a 2-cell environment.
