Evolution of a test system to support 5G new radio

Anritsu Corporation has introduced the ME7834NR test system to support PCT and CAT of terminals incorporating the 5G NR technology. The system will add support for 3GPP TS 38.523 test cases for all configurations of 5G NR, including both NSA and SA modes. Building on the success of the Mobile Device Test Platform, the system offers a smooth transition to 5G while continuing to support LTE, LTE-A, LTE-A Pro and legacy UMTS technologies. This allows existing customers to upgrade to 5G while capitalising on a well proven LTE-A test environment and keep up with the latest technology evolution. Mr Tsutomu Tokuke, general manager of Mobile Solutions Division, said: “By introducing the ME7834NR, Anritsu has demonstrated continued commitment to the mobile industry by providing leading-edge test solutions to facilitate early launch of new technologies like 5G NR. We are also assuring our existing ME7834 customers that their investment in our products is secured for the long term.”
