Anritsu Demonstrates 1 Gb/s LTE-A Throughput Using Qualcomm Snapdragon X16 LTE Modem

Anritsu Demonstrates 1 Gb/s LTE-A Throughput Using Qualcomm Snapdragon X16 LTE Modem

03/01/2016

Anritsu Company announces it has successfully demonstrated peak throughput for an LTE-Advanced (LTE-A) device and network simulator using 3x Carrier Aggregation (3CA) and 4x4 MIMO with 256QAM modulation. Utilizing devices featuring the new Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ X16 LTE modem, a product of Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. a subsidiary of Qualcomm Incorporated, and the Anritsu MD8430A LTE Simulator, Anritsu is able to successfully show support for stable IP-layer data rates of up to 1 GBit/s in the downlink. The solution will be demonstrated in Anritsu’s booth (Hall 6, Stand F40) at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain, February 22-25.

“Anritsu is pleased to once again work with Qualcomm Technologies in support of our latest advance – breaking the gigabit barrier for wireless communications,” said Paul Innis, Vice President and General Manager of Anritsu Company. “This achievement builds on our previous world’s first announcements with Qualcomm Technologies of Category 6 in January 2014 and Category 9 in November 2014. We look forward to continuing to provide test solutions that enable the development of consumer devices that use this new data rate breakthrough.”

Utilizing a newly introduced capability enables a single MD8430A to simulate three contiguous LTE baseband cells on a single RF carrier. With two MD8430A simulators in a “master/slave” combination Anritsu can offer more aggregated carriers with higher-order MIMO than other solutions on the market. Cells can be placed in any licensed or unlicensed band using newly introduced RF capability to cover 350 MHz to 6 GHz.

The MD8430A is a scalable LTE network simulator, with four models ranging from Functional Test Model (FTM) to Enhanced Test Model (ETM), and available LTE FDD and TDD software options for any model. The associated Rapid Test Designer (RTD) graphical test software environment enables quick scripting and debug of tests with full automation and an intuitive user interface as well as dedicated layer 3 and lower-layer libraries for maximum flexibility. Simulation of three simultaneous cells on a single RF is available now with the newly introduced MD8430A-004, and coverage of 350 MHz to 6 GHz is currently available with the new MD8430A-006.
