Manufacturers of IoT chipsets, modems, and end devices as well as test houses can now rely on Rohde & Schwarz's CMW500 radio communication tester to bring next-generation IoT devices based on NTN to the market, enabling connectivity on land, at sea, and in the air.
Manufacturers of IoT chipsets, modems, and end devices as well as test houses can now rely on the CMW500 radio communication tester to bring next-generation IoT devices based on NTN to the market, enabling connectivity on land, at sea, and in the air. The tester allows engineers to assess their NTN NB-IoT devices under realistic conditions, establishing a real-time, comprehensive connection with the simulated satellite network and testing the relevant signaling and RF scenarios in line with the 3GPP Rel. 17 specifications.
The test solution emulates geosynchronous orbit (GSO) and geostationary orbit (GEO) as well as low earth orbit (LEO) constellations. It helps engineers to verify NTN device challenges like time and frequency synchronization due to prolonged delay and Doppler effect, low Signal-to-Interference-plus-Noise Ratio (SINR), power saving mechanisms, satellite ephemerides, and GNSS acquisition.
