Infrastructure cost is a prime factor in 5G network deployment. And coverage is more opportunistic when it comes to higher bands such as mmWave; the thing that requires densification of RAN elements to ensure reliable coverage. Consultix as the leader of CW test equipment together with iBwave as the prime tool for indoor radio planning analyze here how to optimize [...]
RD Microwaves PIMOSL Low PIM Calibration Kit, 300-6000 MHz CK-A09 Calibration Kit PIMOSL, (low PIM load, Open, Short, and resistive Load) is an economical choice for bench or field sweep tests on low PIM systems. Compared to Test Equipment OEM products it is less costly and comes with 4.3-10 connectors eliminating the need for adapters. For tower and DAS installations it [...]
5G Coverage Discussion Panel Article 5G operators are facing two significant optimization challenges: bandwidth and propagation. If these challenges are looked at separately, the preferences for 5G frequencies can vary. Additionally, while 5G is an evolution of the cellular technology from 4G, 3.5 GHz is a new and additional frequency band upon which the 5G systems can operate. To gain [...]

5G Testing Discussion Panel Article As the rollout of 5G accelerates, testing, validation and optimization of its infrastructure and devices is paramount. According to a recent report from Global Industry Analysts entitled “Global OTA Testing Industry”, the Over the Air (OTA) testing market for 5G is poised to hit almost US$1.4 billion within the next five years. That growth is due [...]
Many of us are frequently making RF power measurements with purposes that range from system reliability and network coverage, to safety and accuracy required for precision processes. However, system components and even the power sensor itself have uncertainties associated with them that factor into the accuracy of the RF power measurement. We will be discussing some of these common sources [...]
Segment 1: RF Fundamentals Many of us utilize or maintain RF systems in our daily lives but when was the last time we took a moment to review the fundamental concepts behind these systems? We’re going to be discussing the basics such as: Frequencies and the RF Spectrum What is impedance? Max Power Transfer VSWR and Return Loss What is […]
