Overview
The VR5 HD Spatial Channel Emulator brings unprecedented ease of use to testinggeometric MIMO/beamforming devices and base-stations. 8×4 MIMO, TD-LTE, WiFi 802.11n/ac, LTE-Advanced, and bi-directional or handover testing are just a few of the challenges that are easily handled with this bench-top unit.
The VR5 interface simplifies the management of complex MIMO scenarios, streamlining configuration and preventing errors from creeping in. Now even the newest user can quickly set up and run the complex RF environments needed to test mobiles and base-stations used in LTE, LTE-Advanced and beyond.
The Spirent VR5 HD Spatial Channel Emulator simplifies MIMO testing for technologies such as LTE and LTE-Advanced. These technologies rely on large numbers of antennas, higher bandwidth, and band aggregation to deliver high-speed data. VR5 provides integrated bi-directional RF channels and supports carrier aggregation. With high fidelity channel and long simulation repetition rates, the VR5 ensures reliable and accurate performance evaluation.
It features an easy to use GUI that provides one-click access to the most often used functions. The step-by-step design of the GUI along with the graphical feedback at each step ensure even the most novice user can quickly set up and run the complex RF environments needed to test mobiles and base-stations used in LTE, LTE-Advanced and beyond.
The integrated touch screen interface on the front panel lets you track test progress in real-time and make quick changes to the test setup.
- Simplified testing – VR5 keeps receiver testing simple, preventing setup errors… no matter how many antennas are involved in the forward-looking technologies you’re working on.
- The real world in your lab – From captured drive-test scenarios to the most complex MIMO scenarios, the VR5 brings realworld RF scenarios to your test lab.
- Maximum effectiveness of your resources – Even the most complicated test cases can be set up and run, quickly and correctly, by your least inexperienced team members.
