Anritsu Corporation to enable OEMs and third-party test houses to conduct Skylo-defined testing of NTN devices using Anritsu test platforms.
This collaboration between Anritsu and Skylo for NTN devices to enable device, module, and chipset manufacturers to use a trusted third party to ensure their products are compatible with Skylo’s network.
Anritsu to help enable Skylo to deliver the highest standards of performance, reliability, and connectivity for their customers fostering next-gen NTN devices.
Anritsu’s advanced testing methodologies and equipment will play a crucial role in evaluating the robustness and efficiency of devices intended for use on Skylo’s network.
This testing process by Anritsu is designed to rigorously assess each device’s functionality, signal integrity, and Radio Frequency (RF) characteristics, guaranteeing that they can withstand diverse and potentially challenging environmental and RF conditions.
Anritsu will be supporting several test areas, including device RF parametric, Over-The-Air (OTA), Performance, Protocol Conformance, and RF Conformance tests.
Dr. Andrew Nuttall, CTO and Co-Founder of Skylo, says: “Skylo is committed to revolutionizing the way the world connects, especially in remote and underserved areas. Our partnership with Anritsu is a significant step towards ensuring that our customers and partners can get their devices certified on our network in the quickest, easiest ways possible. Anritsu’s expertise in testing and certification is invaluable in our mission to provide seamless connectivity everywhere.”
Jonathan Borrill, CTO for Anritsu T&M, says, “We are thrilled to partner with Skylo and contribute to its groundbreaking work in non-terrestrial networks. We believe NTN is a key technology that has begun to revolutionize the world of telecommunications and will become an integral part of future wireless networks. Our shared commitment to excellence in telecommunications will ensure that devices operating on Skylo’s network are of the highest caliber.”
Anritsu at MWC 2024
Anritsu will demonstrate at MWC 2024 in Barcelona, RF measurement of NTN devices (Non-Terrestrial Network) NB-IoT, which is one of the key topics and lead deployments for satellite ‘direct to device’ using Anritsu’s MT8821C Radio Communication Analyzer enabling customers to test RF parametric with call connection in NTN environment.
