First Wireless Emulator Suitable for 5G Massive MIMO Systems

August 17, 2017

Researchers at CATT and NYU WIRELESS have built the world’s first wireless emulator suitable for 5G systems that feature massive bandwidths and hundreds of antenna elements. In this unique patented design, the Emulator emulates not only the wireless channel, but also the beamformers (or phased-arrays) on both the transmitter and receiver devices under test.
