Keysight actively participates in numerous influential mobile communications standards bodies and leading global 5G initiatives. Keysight also collaborates with leading companies in the sector and universities in the development of the next generation of mobile communications systems.

Keysight will be showcasing the following solutions:
• Keysight’s unique Narrowband IoT (NB-IoT) test solutions enable designers to accelerate the deployment of long-range mobile IoT technology, offering the world’s first mobile device test kit solution with a certified NB-IoT device. Keysight’s solutions allow users to optimize critical performance attributes in their IoT designs, such as power consumption, RF performance, interoperability, and the world’s first examples of GCF NB-IoT conformance testing.
• Keysight’s 5G fronthaul network monitoring solution provides a new level of capabilities to mobile operators, offering them critical quality-of-service data that enables them to measure and improve fronthaul operations and troubleshoot issues. The solution uniquely offers a real-time dashboard of the 5G fronthaul control plane through continuous monitoring, combining RF signals and mobile communication protocols.
• Keysight will present its 5G Broadband Real-Time Channel Modeling Reference Solution, which enables researchers to quickly and accurately test analog, digital, and hybrid channel modeling systems. This includes transmitting and receiving extremely high numbers of multiple inputs and outputs (MIMO) using channel modeling technology and algorithms for radio access devices and networks.
• Keysight’s Anite Virtual Driving Test (VDT) toolset is a unique lab-based solution that allows the automotive industry to cost-effectively verify wireless connectivity in connected vehicles. Keysight’s VDT toolset is an automated, realistic, and accurate “field-to-lab” testing solution for mobile devices and network equipment. These tools replicate driving test conditions using field data to create test examples that are reproducible in a repeatable and controllable lab environment.
• Keysight’s Nemo autonomous, unattended testing solution, Nemo Cloud with the Nemo Autonomous probe, is a cloud-based, real-time monitoring solution that enables operators to fully automate network measurement projects.
• Keysight’s Nemo Xynergy geospatial intelligence solution helps monitor profitability and efficiency by using call location data generated by Operations Support Systems (OSS) for controllerless network optimization using internally developed geolocation algorithms. This approach reveals unparalleled depth and quality of analysis by enabling the correlation of multiple data sources to improve troubleshooting, synchronization, and resolution routines.
• Keysight’s new 802.11ax solution contributes to the WLAN industry’s advancement to the 802.11ax protocol, from R&D to manufacturing. The solution is compact, robust, and supports up to 8x8 MIMO. Keysight's client software brings greater efficiency to testing, so R&D engineers can quickly validate their new devices and achieve greater manufacturing efficiency, resulting in superior EVM performance.
