In this section of the Rohde & Schwarz Online Press Kit, you'll find our news releases. The releases are listed in chronological order and are archived by month and year.
Mobile network operators have to continuously optimize and troubleshoot their networks to ensure performance and to get the most out of their infrastructure. Drive tests are the most effective way to collect accurate location based information for this purpose, but they are a cost factor for network operation. R&S NORA, jointly developed by Rohde & Schwarz and SwissQual AG, is an innovative and easy-to-use software platform that enables users to design more efficient and productive drive tests.
The R&S TS8980 from Rohde & Schwarz is the first test system on the market to provide RF conformance testing for LTE-Unlicensed (LTE-U). LTE-U enables network operators to use the unlicensed 5 GHz spectrum and offer higher data rates.
The new enhanced voice service (EVS) audio codec represents another milestone on the path to high-quality audio connections. At Mobile World Congress, Rohde & Schwarz presents its new, complementary test solution for ensuring the audio quality of EVS-based VoLTE calls.
The modules used in Internet of Things (IoT) applications often combine Bluetooth® with other wireless interface technologies. The R&S CMW500 wideband radio communication tester is the only test platform on the market to offer a one-instrument solution for testing all cellular and non-cellular standards and Bluetooth. Rohde & Schwarz has now expanded it leading test platform to include Bluetooth audio tests for manufacturers of Bluetooth headsets and audio car kits.
R&D designers of modern radar systems and equipment that implements modern communication standards like 5G or IEEE 802.11 ad require instruments with an exceptionally wide signal generation bandwidth. The R&S SMW200A is the first vector signal generator that offers an internal modulation bandwidth of 2 GHz with a frequency range of up to 40 GHz in a user-friendly, single-box solution.
