Using CellAdvisor 5G for Beam Analysis
VIAVI Solutions Case Study Using CellAdvisor 5G for Beam Analysis 5G will revolutionize the connected world, bringing broadband capacity, gigabit speeds, ultra reliability, low latency, and massive machine type communication. Massive MIMO and antenna beamforming are the key technologies enabling 5G, which will change from static cell-centric coverage to dynamic user-based coverage for 5G radio access networks. Beamforming is the ability to generate and shape multiple beams using a much larger antenna array by manipulating the phase and amplitude of the signals thereby directing energy to a user’s specific service area. At higher frequencies, such as frequency range 2 (FR2), millimeter wave (small wavelength) makes it easy to integrate a larger array into a relatively smaller form
