5G NR Reduced Capabilities (RedCap) network scanning
Purpose of RedCap: RedCap is designed for use cases requiring reasonable data throughput, cost-efficient devices, reduced power consumption and smaller device footprint to support applications like wireless industrial sensors, video surveillance and smart wearables in which ultralow latency isn’t essential. Technology basics: Understanding the technology basics helps facing configuration complexities and avoiding potential coexistence issues with regular 5G. RedCap field verification: New mobile network technology introductions like 5G RedCap benefit from field measurements during their typical life-cycle phases (engineering, network roll-out, and operation). Measurement Techniques: In early phases of new technologies, passive network measurements using network scanners are reliable and effective in detecting actual network and cell configurations.

Best practices for national regulatory authorities
Key points:Importance of field measurements: Traditional network planning tools and models only offer an estimated view of mobile coverage. Field measurements are conducted under real geographical and load conditions, and therefore provide a more accurate picture and can discover interferences more effectively. Coverage investigations: When deploying a mobile network, operators must adhere to regulatory standards and licensing conditions. As a result, regulatory authorities carry out field measurements on a regular or ad hoc basis to validate compliance or investigate customer complaints. This process identifies coverage gaps and areas of poor network quality, enabling regulatory authorities to take actions to enhance service quality for consumers and guide network expansion.Foster competition: If the field measurements of the coverage and performance are performed on a scale representative of a given country, the transparency of these results can promote healthy competition between operators and better service for consumers, which is essential for economic growth and social development.Measurement Techniques: The harmonized methodology for measuring and evaluating data throughput and QoE based on popular services is described in ETSI TR 103 559.

Spectrum scans are beneficial for many use-cases such as troubleshooting, interference detection and interference hunting, or verification tasks like scheduler verification or other engineering tasks. A time-gated spectrum scan, which is a power spectrum scan which applies a time gate on uplink/downlink slots/symbols and/or the guard period reveals even more details in uplink/downlink or guard period power spectrum. This allows to focus on the uplink / downlink or guard period power spectrum in 5G NR TDD networks. This educational note explains use cases for spectrum measurements, the complexity in 5G TDD and its technology basics, and which problems can be solved with the described solution. The software used is R&S®ROMES4 together with a R&S®TSMx6 drive and walk test scanner.

Modern societies worldwide depend on the performance, reliability and security of critical infrastructures and networks. There is a plethora of “new verticals” such as manufacturing, warehouse, mining, ports or other critical infrastructure, just to name a few. These “new vertical” use cases all have one common requirement: the mobile network needs to provide a superior performance compared to a commercial mobile network. In such environments 5G brings new capabilities to build fast and secure campus or private networks tuned to higher performance, which can increase productivity and efficiency. To be successful in these business-critical use cases, the wireless networks need to be as reliable as the wired ones. This educational note describes the different test methods to be able to verify the superior network performance and to help finding root causes of potential problems limiting the performance. We distinguish between passive tests and active tests.

자동차 제조사와 정부 부처는 오랜 기간 교통 안전을 강화하고, 교통을 효율적으로 관리하며 더욱 편안하고 편리하며 안전한 미래의 교통을 구현할 방법을 찾고 있었습니다. V2X(Vehicle-to-Everything)는 차량을 모든 사물에 연결하여 이러한 목표를 지원할 수 있는 차세대 정보통신 기술입니다. V2X는 저지연 V2V(Vehicle-to-Vehicle), V2I(Vehicle-to-Roadside Infrastructure), V2P(Vehicle-to-Pedestrian) 통신을 제공하여 미래의 운전자 보조 시스템에 새로운 차원을 더하도록 설계되었습니다.3GPP가 Release 14에서 통신 표준으로 정의한 C-V2X(Cellular V2X)는 물리 계층 통신 인터페이스로 LTE 기술을 사용합니다.사용자는 LTE C-V2X 스캐너를 사용해 구축 단계에 있거나 이미 구축 완료된 ITS 교통 시스템을 검증, 테스트, 최적화할 수 있습니다. 네트워크 스캐너는 RSU(Roadside Unit), 차량 및 기타 C-V2X 구현 장치에서 브로드캐스트되는 메시지(5.9GHz)를 수신하여 이러한 기능을 구현합니다. RSRP, RS-CINR, RSSI와 같은 RF 신호의 출력 및 품질에 관한 일반적인 스캐너 측정 항목들이 각 물리 채널(PSCCH 및 PSSCH)과 디코딩된 3개 지역별(북미, EU, 중국) ITS 메시지 콘텐츠에 대해 제공됩니다.
