vehicle-to-everything physical layer testing
Keysight Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: KEYS) and Ettifos have
successfully conducted a 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP)
Release 16 (Rel-16) Sidelink radio conformance test between the
Ettifos SIRIUS 5G-V2X sidelink platform and Keysight's advanced
test equipment, paving the way for 5G vehicle-to-everything
(5G-V2X) advancements.
As demand for connected cars surges and autonomous driving gains
momentum, the expansion of 5G for automotive use comes with
specific requirements for successful implementation. Sidelink
communications, a crucial feature for cellular
vehicle-to-everything (C-V2X), allows vehicles to share information
and other elements of the road system independent of the network.
The 5G New Radio (NR) V2X specification based on the Rel-16
standard, will provide higher throughput, enhanced reliability, and
lower latency, while allowing vehicles to share rich, real-time
data that support autonomous and connected driving experiences.
With the completion of the conformance test, the Keysight and
Ettifos equipment have been verified to be compliant with Rel-16
standards. Now, developers have reliable tools to test advanced use
cases designed for 5G-V2X. During the process, Keysight launched
the first-to-market radio frequency (RF) physical layer test
software apps supporting NR V2X for Keysight’s PathWave Signal
Generation Desktop and X-Series RF vector signal generator.
Solutions used for the conformance test include:
- Keysight MXA Signal Analyzer
- Keysight MXG X-Series RF Vector Signal Generator
- Keysight PathWave Signal Generation for 5G NR
- Keysight NR V2X Measurement Application
Hojun Kim, Global Chief Technology Officer, Ettifos,
said: “This radio conformance test with Keysight allowed us to
confirm the quality and compliance of our 5G-V2X sidelink platform,
SIRIUS. Since Keysight and we developed the implementation of 3GPP
Release 16 in our respective devices independently, the successful
interoperability of our devices was more meaningful. It also shows
V2X stakeholders that there is equipment available and ready in the
market for use in testing advanced use cases designed with 5G-V2X
sidelink in mind.”
Thomas Goetzl, Vice President and General Manager of
Keysight’s Automotive and Energy Solutions, said: “We see the
move from basic safety, enabled by LTE-V2X, to enhanced safety and
advanced use cases which rely on the performance of 5G-V2X as the
critical next phase for connected vehicles. Keysight’s 5G-V2X
ready, signal generator and signal analyzer platforms have the
performance and features needed to provide the necessary
development capability and insight our customers, such as Ettifos,
need to develop products like the SIRIUS platform.”
