Anritsu announced a significant enhancement to its MT8000A Radio Communication Test Station, expanding the platform’s 5G device measurement capabilities to include support for 5G NR NTN (Non-Terrestrial Network) devices. This advancement allows for comprehensive testing of devices designed to communicate via satellite networks.
NTN technology represents a breakthrough in addressing connectivity challenges faced in previously unreachable areas, from mountainous terrain and remote islands to disaster-stricken regions. NTN technology can reach these areas where terrestrial infrastructure is unavailable.
As global demand for consistent, reliable connectivity in these challenging environments grows, NTN technology is positioned to become a foundation of 5G network architecture.
The expanded testing capabilities directly support the development of higher-quality 5G NR NTN devices, accelerating progress toward a truly connected society where seamless communication becomes possible regardless of location or circumstances.
Anritsu has consistently delivered cutting-edge measurement technologies that advance the telecommunications industry. This latest enhancement to the MT8000A platform continues that tradition, providing manufacturers with the tools necessary to ensure superior 5G NR NTN device performance and reliability.
