MIMO, Wave 2 Test Support Added to Mobile WiMAX Measurement Solutions
Agilent Technologies Inc.’s Vector Signal Analyzer (VSA), Signal Studio and Mobile WiMAX Test Set measurement solutions have been enhanced to facilitate testing of the WiMAX Forum®'s Wave 2 system profiles. These standardized profiles specify options such as Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO). With their ability to accurately test MIMO and other Wave 2 profile functionality, the company’s measurement devices provide up-to-date tools for engineers requiring signal analysis, signal generation and end-to-end functional test of Mobile WiMAX. Agilent's 89601A VSA and N7615B Signal Studio measurement products offer a range of new test capabilities that support physical (PHY) layer signal generation and analysis for Wave 2 system profiles. Specific capabilities include matrix A and matrix B signals for downlink, uplink collaborative MIMO, and creation of HARQ bursts and uplink sounding zones. N7615B Signal Studio also provides MIMO fading embedded in a waveform. This capability enables testing of MIMO receivers without the added expense of fading hardware or software. The Agilent E6651A Mobile WiMAX Test Set incorporates flexible base-station emulation, IP traffic support and a unique ability to make on-board RF parametric measurements in one integrated unit.
