Mobile World Congress 2026

Discover Rohde & Schwarz at MWC Barcelona 2026

MWC Barcelona is back, and we’ll be there to show how next-generation connectivity and AI-driven networks are enabling scalable, reliable digital infrastructure. As a leading T&M provider, we’re excited to demonstrate how our products meet the evolving testing needs of the wireless communications industry.

Visit Rohde & Schwarz from March 2 to 5, 2026, in hall 5 at booth 5A80 of Fira Gran Via in Barcelona to explore our full competency in 5G/6G, mobile device and infrastructure testing. This year, our spotlight topics are:

From ground to orbit with NTN: Enabling coverage everywhere, empowering services under any conditions.
AI-RAN : Enabling adaptive networks, empowering measurable intelligence.
Wi-Fi 8 and local networks: Enabling next-gen Wi-Fi, empowering reliable private connectivity.
Secure and resilient connectivity: Enabling trusted spectrum, empowering reliable communication everywhere.

Our team of experts will be on hand to discuss how our products and technologies can enhance your projects and drive your success in rapidly evolving markets.

Andreas Pauly, President and Chief Technology Officer, says: "MWC is where the ecosystem turns new ideas into live deployments. Our role is to help customers and partners make emerging network technologies measurable, reliable and ready for the real world - so they can innovate with confidence. We look forward to connecting with you at MWC 2026!"

Spotlight topics

From ground to orbit with NTN

Enabling coverage everywhere, empowering services under any conditions.

As networks expand from terrestrial base stations to satellites, it becomes increasingly complex to simulate real-world conditions and meet 3GPP requirements.

AI-RAN

Enabling adaptive networks, empowering measurable intelligence.

AI is becoming an integral part of the RAN, enabling performance optimization, improved energy efficiency and more autonomous operations.

More information

Wi-Fi 8 and local networks

Enabling next-gen Wi-Fi, empowering reliable local-area connectivity.

Wi-Fi continues to evolve rapidly, and Wi-Fi 8 (IEEE 802.11bn) sets new expectations for consistent, ultra-high reliability and quality connectivity across diverse environments.

Evolution from 5G to 6G

Rohde & Schwarz enables a seamless evolution from 5G to 6G with future-ready test solutions for mobile devices and networks.

As Alexander Pabst, Vice President Market Segment Wireless Communications, puts it: “6G won’t arrive overnight. The key is to make both incremental advances and disruptive new approaches measurable and comparable, so innovation can move forward with confidence.”

Our modular platforms cover the full development cycle and support new frequency bands such as FR3 and advanced architectures. We combine communications and sensing expertise to deliver test solutions for integrated sensing and communication (ISAC), and we support future-proofing networks with real-time intelligence for enhanced security, performance and user experience.

In close collaboration with research and industry partners, we help shape 6G toward its expected launch around 2030.
