Evolution of LTE UE categories and how to test UEs

Evolution of LTE UE categories and how to test UEs

Achievable data rates in LTE mainly depend on the bandwidth, modulation scheme, MIMO support and additional features such as carrier aggregation. 3GPP Release 8 to 12 specify categories to define the supported capabilities of a UE. Learn more about the evolution of LTE UE categories and how to verify UE performance based on its corresponding category with the R&S®CMW500 wideband radio communication tester from Rohde & Schwarz.

LTE D2D ProSe - Direct discovery: protocol analysis

This video demonstrates protocol analysis for direct discovery based on the R&S®CMW500 wideband radio communication tester. The R&S®CMW500 emulates the LTE network and the receiving device simultaneously, which enables the device under test to send the discovery message.
