Technical Overviews
Tackle the challenges of LTE deployment on foot or behind the wheel. LTE (4G) is the most promising next generation mobile wireless broadband technology being deployed today. There are many trials under way in all major technology markets, such as Europe, Asia and the Americas. There are two major arenas in Radio Access Network (RAN) deployment beginning with hardware installation; such as cables and antennas, ilters, TMA, diplexer, duplexer, eNode B and backhaul. The other is over the air performance veriication and evaluation: band clearing to make sure the channel to be used is interference free, site acquisition, coverage testing, neighbor list optimization, iRAT test, end to end delay and throughput evaluation, KPI testing, air interface optimization and interference management to minimize internal, external and inter-modulation interference. In order to facilitate LTE technology trials and its deployment, Keysight Technologies, Inc. has developed an LTE receiver drive test system for air interface troubleshooting and optimization, and a handheld RF analyzer for cell site test and interference hunting to help you tackle the challenges of LTE deployment.
E6474A network optimization solution
The Keysight Technologies, Inc. E6474A network optimization solution enables wireless service providers and network equipment manufacturers to efficiently deploy and optimize today’s increasingly complex wireless voice and data networks. A single flexible user interface spans all the most popular wireless technologies used globally. Keysight’s market leading drive test solution encompasses the key measurements you need to optimize and troubleshoot your LTE networks. This gives you the ultimate toolkit to solve your LTE network problems. Keysight’s W1314A multi-band wireless measurement receiver is the most flexible and versatile scanning receiver on the market today. The W1314A supports multiple technologies simultaneously, for example you can have up to eight frequency bands in a single scanner supporting multiple technologies (ie. GSM, UMTS, HSDPA, HSUPA, WiMAX and LTE). Keysight’s drive test software also supports IP data test, VOIP and video streaming on any phone or data card.
Key Features
LTE channel power measurement
LTE RF spectrum and CW measurement
Network timing: Sync Frame = Yes/No
Note: Sync Frame =“Yes”, assumes that LTE signals are close to the frame boundaries established by a GPS 1 PPS.
Supported frequencies: 700 / 850 / 900 / 1700/ 1800 / 1900 MHz; 2.1 / 2.6 / 3.5 GHz
LTE top N channel and channel list: -- P-SCH RSSI and Physical Layer Identity NID [0, 2] -- S-SCH RSSI and Physical Layer Cell Identity NID [0, 503] – Delay
Meets current and future network troubleshooting and optimization
Supports GSM, WCDMA and LTE technologies and multiple frequency bands at same time, this allows you to compare and benchmark each service area, test potential handover (iRAT) between technologies and frequencies.
Combined with test mobile protocol messages you can monitor what happens in the network and why it happens, this approach makes troubleshooting and optimization much easier.
Generic data, VOIP, and video streaming tests allow you to integrate any pre-commercial LTE trial phones with drive test system to gain insight into network performance without waiting for engineering test mobile to become available.
FieldFox RF analyzer
The Keysight FieldFox RF analyzer (4 GHz/ 6 GHz) is the world’s most integrated, fast, and rugged handheld RF analyzer for wireless network installation and maintenance. This six-in-one RF tester combines cable and antenna analysis, spectrum analysis, interference analysis, power meter measurement, vector network analysis, and a vector voltmeter into one rugged, compact, lightweight, and weather-resistant package. FieldFox supports power suite measurements for GSM, WCDMA and LTE.
