MediaTek tests RedCap interoperability with Keysight

MediaTek completes 5G NR and RedCap interoperability testing using Keysight's solutions, validating Rel-17 features and driving market advancements in 5G technology.

MediaTek completed 5G New Radio (NR) and 5G reduced capability (RedCap) interoperability development testing (IODT) of its 5G modem based on the 3GPP Release 17 (Rel-17) standard using Keysight’s 5G Network Emulation Solutions.

The testing verified early identification, bandwidth part (BWP) definition, user equipment (UE) capability, radio resource management (RRM) relaxation, network control device-synchronization signal block (NCD-SSB), sounding reference signal (SRS) enhancement, extended discontinuous reception (eDRX), and physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) for frequency hopping. The 5G NR IODT validated the chipset supported Rel-17 features including power saving, small data transmission, and NR coverage enhancement.

Dr. Ho-Chi Hwang, General Manager of Wireless Communication System and Partnerships at MediaTek, said: “MediaTek is committed to driving market advancements in 5G NR Rel-17 and RedCap technology. We collaborate with Keysight to develop state-of-the-art 5G modem platforms, fostering a growing ecosystem of 5G device innovators.”
