Keysight Technologies Inc. announced it co-hosted a 5G and millimeter-Wave (mmWave) workshop with Kwangwoon University Radio Research Center, Seoul, South Korea. The 5G event, held in October, was the first co-hosted event in the region with over 190 in attendance. The event theme ‘‘Taking 5G from Vision to Reality” focused on 5G and mmWave research, solutions and technologies.

Anritsu Company introduces options for its MD8475A Network Simulator platform that support WLAN Offload smartphone testing, creating an accurate and efficient test solution for verifying mobile devices early in the device integration test process. The MD8475A simulates real-world carrier network implementation of industry-standard WLAN Offload functions.

Anritsu Company, as part of its commitment to support global wireless standards, announces that it is the market leader in approved test cases for TD-LTE Carrier Aggregation and is the only test company with Global Certification Forum (GCF)-approved TD-LTE test cases in the IMS Voice over LTE (VoLTE)-related technology of aSRVCC.

Anritsu Co. has introduced the MW82119B PIM Master™ that combines a 40 W, battery-operated PIM analyzer with a 2 MHz to 3 GHz cable and antenna analyzer, eliminating the need to carry multiple instruments to measure the RF performance of a cell site. The MW82119B PIM is MIL-STD-810G drop test rated and is designed to withstand transportation shock, vibration and harsh outdoor test conditions.

Richardson RFPD Inc. announced the availability and full design support capabilities for three new 1200 V, 80 mΩ SiC MOSFETs from Microsemi Corporation. The new MOSFETs are built on SiC MOSFET technology, which features best-in-class RDS(on) vs. temperature, ultra-low gate resistance for minimizing switching energy loss, superior maximum switching frequency, and outstanding ruggedness.

Rohde & Schwarz has been continuously enhancing its R&S IQR100 digital I/Q data recorder. A new firmware update now provides users with a data rate of nearly 100 Msample/s instead of the original 66 Msample/s. The R&S IQR100 digital I/Q data recorder from Rohde & Schwarz can now record, store and play I/Q signals with bandwidths up to 79.6 MHz -- loss-free in realtime.

Pickering Interfaces, a leading provider of modular signal switching and instrumentation, is pleased to announce a significant milestone in providing test engineers with the optimum PXI solutions for their Test & Measurement applications. The company now offers over 1,000 PXI modules, ranging from their BRIC™ high density switching matrices, RF/microwave and optical switching products through to precision resistor switching networks for sensor emulation.

Keysight Technologies Inc. announced it will provide single vendor service solutions for a broad range of multi-vendor products. The services include calibration of physical, dimensional and optical products; training; and company-wide support.

Anritsu Company expands its industry leading training courses with the introduction of Interference Analysis (IA) Certification, a comprehensive, instructor-led training class to help wireless professionals locate interference sources. The three-day course has been developed by Anritsu to help cellular technicians, wireless carrier performance engineers, field engineers, and personnel from government, military and security agencies ensure optimum wireless network performance in an ever-crowding RF spectrum.   

Keysight Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: KEYS) today announced frequency-extension upgrades for its PXA, MXA and EXA X-Series signal analyzers. Currently, no other manufacturer provides the opportunity to upgrade frequency range after the initial purchase of a signal analyzer. With this offering, users can extend the frequency of their existing instrument to the maximum available frequency of the analyzer model.
