New radio test capabilities devised for 3GPP 5G wireless setups
What is billed as an industry first 5G NR ready device workflow solution is said to address the entire device R&D workflow and scales from sub-6 GHz to mmWave. The UXM 5G Wireless Test Platform, developed by Keysight Technologies, Inc., is said to help prototype and develop 5G chipsets and devices while keeping up with […]
Understanding and displaying the J operator
A plus times a plus is a plus. A plus times a minus is a minus. A minus times a plus is a minus. A minus times a minus is a plus. Because none of these operations results in a negative product, we must confront the hard reality that the square root of a negative […]
Narrowband-IoT over-the-air test setup works with reverberation test chambers
Keysight Technologies, Inc. today announced the collaboration with Bluetest on the successful creation of a narrowband – internet of things (NB-IoT)) over-the-air (OTA) solution for use in Bluetest Reverberation Test Systems (bluetest.se/products/chambers).

Six oscilloscope features I wish I knew before graduation
by Barrett Poe, Keysight Technologies, Inc. User interfaces have become more advanced and measurements more automated – and less tolerant of improper measurement setups. Long before every oscilloscope carried an autoscale button, and before touch-screen triggering was a gleam in someone’s eye, aspiring engineers would need to manually adjust settings for the time base and […]
