Munich | 02/27/2015 | Test & Measurement Rohde & Schwarz to present a test setup today for the mobile network of tomorrow Could pedestrians be better protected in traffic by having a 5G smartphone? Could the physically disabled learn to walk again with the help of robots? These scenarios could become reality with the launch of next generation mobile wireless technology in the year 2020. To support developers in their research activities surrounding 5G mobile networks, Rohde & Schwarz now offers a test setup for wideband applications in the millimeter-wave range. Rohde & Schwarz, a leading specialist in electronics, will present its test solution at Mobile World Congress 2015 (hall 6, booth C40). The solution consists of an R&S SMW200A vector signal generator and an R&S FSW signal and spectrum analyzer in combination with an R&S RTO oscilloscope. When equipped with the R&S FSW-B2000 option, the R&S FSW provides an analysis bandwidth of 2 GHz. The R&S FSW67 model additionally allows signal analysis in the frequency range up to 67 GHz. The R&S FSW family is especially suited to the challenging tests to be performed during the development of 5G mobile networks. The R&S SMW200A supports signal generation up to a frequency of 40 GHz, or even beyond using external upconverter assemblies. The test setup to be presented at MWC 2015 generates and analyzes wideband signals in the 60 GHz range.
The Rohde & Schwarz test solution to be demonstrated supports the research activities aimed at making the spectrum in the millimeter-wave range usable for 5G. The intent is to have a 5G mobile network available to the market by 2020 that specifically targets the development of new applications in industry, healthcare and robot control, among other sectors. For example, the 5G Lab Germany is researching a wireless protective bubble for pedestrians. If vehicles come within this bubble, their brakes are applied automatically. Scenarios of this type place significantly greater demands on networks in terms of latency. At the same time, the demand for higher data rates and capacity is increasing, primarily due to the rapid rise in the number of devices and machines that communicate (M2M and IoT), along with a host of new application scenarios such as high-resolution video telephony and mobile TV on smartphones and tablets. It is clear to see that high bandwidth and frequencies will play a prominent role.
Rohde & Schwarz is an active participant in many 5G initiatives around the globe, providing support to on-going research and development for the new mobile network. These initiatives include, for example, the 5G Forum in South Korea, the 5G Innovation Centre in Great Britain, the NGMN 5G Initiative and the 5G Lab Germany at Technische Universit t Dresden.
