Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd, a global leader in advanced semiconductor technologies, has confirmed achieving DL 6CA (256QAM) max T-put (1.2Gbps) for its next-generation LTE modem successfully with Anritsu’s MT8821C Radio Communication Analyzer as the industry’s first test platform.

Keysight Technologies, Inc. announced innovative enhancements for the M8040A high-performance bit error ratio tester (BERT) solution for testing PAM-4 and NRZ devices that operate up to 64 GBaud. Engineers in validation labs and R&D who characterize receivers on the physical layer for emerging 400G data center interconnects will benefit from simplified test setups and repeatable and accurate results.

Ensuring the availability and quality of both live and file-based content is a critical challenge for video content distributors moving to adaptive bit rate (ABR) and over-the-top (OTT) delivery models. Those challenges just got easier with the introduction of comprehensive video on demand (VOD) and live OTT monitoring solutions from Tektronix, an industry-leading innovator of video test, monitoring and diagnostics solutions, that allow broadcasters and other video content distributors using cloud, virtual or physical networks to ensure that the content they are delivering to customers is good quality.

Rohde & Schwarz Mobile Network Testing is paving the way to NB-IoT by providing the world’s first accurate LTE/NB-IoT coverage measurement solution: via a software upgrade, the R&S ROMES drive test software now also supports NB-IoT coverage measurements with R&S TSMx scanners.

Texas Instruments (TI), opened the door for developers to implement high-performing DLP display technology with virtually any low-cost processor. The new 0.2-inch DLP2000 chipset and $99 DLP® LightCrafter™ Display 2000 evaluation module (EVM) now make it more affordable to leverage DLP technology and design on-demand, free-form display applications such as mobile smart TVs; pico projectors; digital signage; projection displays for smart homes, smartphones and tablets; and control panels and Internet of Things (IoT) display solutions.

Keysight Technologies, Inc. announced that it will showcase the latest end-to-end R&D to deployment test solutions for user devices to network infrastructure for 5G, cellular IoT, LTE and WiFi at Mobile World Congress Americas 2017, North Hall, Stand 1246, San Francisco, Sept. 12-14.

New technologies such as 4K, Wide Color Gamut (WCG) and High Dynamic Range (HDR) allow video content creators to create stunning images and content for delivery to the home, but they also add considerable complexity to workflows. Tektronix, Inc., an industry-leading innovator of video test and monitoring solutions, today unveiled a comprehensive set of production tools to help content creators minimize and manage this complexity at its source – the camera. The new solutions, available now, will be demonstrated at IBC 2017 this September on Stand 10 D41.

Rohde & Schwarz offers secure communications solutions that provide interoperability as well as national information superiority for all branches of the armed forces.

NI, the provider of platform-based systems that enable engineers and scientists to solve the world’s greatest engineering challenges, announced the release of a new family of high-performance PXI remote control and bus extension modules with PCI Express Gen 3 connectivity. PCI Express Gen 3 technology delivers increased bandwidth that is critical for data intensive applications like 5G cellular research, RF record and playback, and high-channel-count data acquisition.

Keysight Technologies, Inc. announced a solution that supports simultaneous cellular and WiFi testing. The T5510S Cellular + WiFi Emulation System is a powerful, flexible platform enabled by the combination of Keysight's UXM network emulator and the Ixia Solutions Group's Wave Test System.
