Leading smartphone manufacturer uses Keysight’s
5G network emulation solutions to ensure superior performance of
new 5G devices
Keysight Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: KEYS), a leading technology
company that helps enterprises, service providers and governments
accelerate innovation to connect and secure the world, announced
that the company has established a joint 5G test laboratory in
Shenzhen, China with OPPO, one of the world's top five mobile
device manufacturers*, further extending the collaboration between
the two companies.
The new lab uses Keysight’s 5G platform to help verify the
performance of new 5G new radio (NR) designs, a key activity that
will help the Chinese-based smartphone manufacturer expand its
global market presence. Keysight’s solutions, which are widely
adopted by leading chipset and device makers, enable OPPO to
comprehensively test their 5G multi-mode devices in different form
factors.
“By setting up a joint 5G test lab with Keysight, we’re
strengthening our ability to successfully launch 5G devices for
deployment in a wide range of 5G use cases,” said Donny Peng,
assistant vice president of Software Product Engineering in OPPO.
“The extended collaboration with Keysight reflects the confidence
we have in the company’s 5G test solutions and the expertise they
offer in helping us develop reliable 5G technology.”
Chipset manufacturers and their mobile device ecosystems use
Keysight's 5G NR platform, which is compliant to the latest 3GPP 5G
NR standards, to accelerate development, validation and carrier
acceptance. The platform supports both sub-6GHz and mmWave
frequencies for conducted and over-the-air (OTA) testing. Common
development tools enable users to share design insights gained
across each stage of the device lifecycle. As a result, chipset and
device manufacturers can accelerate delivery of new 5G NR products
to market and capitalize on early commercial revenue
opportunities.
“Leading 5G device makers such as OPPO recognize the importance
of robust testing prior to successful and competitive commercial
product launches in a global marketplace,” said Kailash Narayanan,
vice president and general manager of Keysight's wireless test
group. “This joint lab is a key milestone in our 5G collaboration
with OPPO to help them deliver on their 5G strategy and bring
leading 5G devices to the market.”
On November 29, 2018 OPPO used Keysight's UXM-based 5G NR
network emulation solutions to successfully establish a 5G video
call, thereby completing one of the world's first 5G signaling and
data connections based on OPPO's commercially available mobile
phone.
* OPPO has been identified as one of the world's top five
leading smartphone manufacturer in terms of market share according
to IDC's Worldwide Quarterly Mobile Phone Tracker.
