Anritsu And EMITE Announce 802.11ax TRP/TIS OTA Platform

Anritsu and EMITE are proud to announce their latest combined solution for testing the latest IEEE 802.11 WLAN standard. The new Anritsu Wireless Connectivity Test Set MT8862A, has been successfully integrated in combination to the EMITE E600 Reverberation Chamber to test OTA TRP/TIS performance of IEEE 802.11ax devices in a repeatable environment. With built-in communications protocols and optimized performance for WLAN testing, the MT8862A + EMITE reverberation chamber can characterize with high reliability the performance of the latest devices in the market.

The new integration has been able to successfully measure total radiated power (TRP) and total isotropic sensitivity (TIS) OTA performance indicators in IEEE 802.11ax devices. Being able to test the latest WLAN standards keep EMITE and Anritsu in the edge of technology for helping customers and service providers deliver their WLAN solutions to the market with total confidence in the performance.

“We are proud once again to develop a world’s first capability with the aid of Anritsu’s unique Wireless Connectivity Test Set MT8862A WLAN and our E600 Reverberation Chamber WLAN. We are already in contact with some of the most important companies worldwide that has shown interest on this solution for their TI efficiency saving costs in advance of any investment”, said Lorenzo J. Martínez-Moya Scharpf, CFO of EMITE.

“WLAN OTA performance test demand is recently increasing in order to secure the brand position with high-quality WLAN products. The IEEE 802.11ax will be a standard WLAN technology in the future from the latest technologies and features viewpoint, and we are also proud to release the OTA test solution collaborated with EMITE’s leading-edge chamber products to the world-wide market”, said Hideo. Zuinen, Product Manager, IoT Test Solutions Div., Anritsu Corporation.
