Read the interview about the 2020 measurements of commercial 5G networks in Italy based on a Rohde & Schwarz test solution and upcoming plans.

Examine the challenges that operators face when enabling 5G NR in LTE subframes and learn about the 5G NR-standard solution to overcome these challenges.

5G demands a new paradigm for measuring quality of experience (QoE) since QoE has a different meaning in machine-type communication such as mMTC and URLLC.

The 5G QoE test solutions from Rohde & Schwarz are independent, transparent and traceable to certified international standards and not aligend to proprietary techniques or individual vendors.

Tests for mobile data applications provide network operators with insights into QoE. Learn why test durations saturate at higher available network speeds.
