Assure 5G NTN Performance Before Launch

Non-terrestrial networks (NTN) promise to finally eliminate coverage gaps across the globe. Beyond commercial applications, these fifth generation (5G) cellular networks create new use cases for critical communications and military operations. For such applications to effectively serve these mission-critical areas, however, their performance must be assured. With RF system measurement science, 5G NTN equipment developers, integrators, and network operators can reduce the time needed to create and deploy networks, using virtual engineering for first-pass success when committing to physical gear. Simulation and emulation support NTN exploration and testing, verifying current performance while supporting next-generation evolutions.
