To measure the low power consumption of IoT devices, tests are performed by connecting an Anritsu base station simulator to the IoT device that implements a communications chip via Cat.1, Cat.1 + eDRX and Cat.M1 on the air interface.
Anritsu began development targeting the Cat.1 + eDRX communication standard for IoT, as well as the latest Cat.M1 standard at an early stage. Following the base station simulators used in testing with KDDI this time, Anritsu plans to add support for the radio communication analyzer and the conformance testing system. Anritsu will continue to provide comprehensive measurement solutions for R&D and I&M of IoT devices for various applications such as Smart Home, Smart Factory, and Smart City.
