Rohde & Schwarz and Signalion said they have raised the bar for LTE test and measurement by being the first to demonstrate full HD video streaming over LTE.
The two collaborators said that in using the SORBAS test user equipment (UE) and the R&S CMW500 wireless tester, they achieved an "extremely high data rate of 25 Mbps."
For the first time, the streaming server of the R&S CMW500 used 64QAM modulation to transmit the data packets to the SORBAS test UE, which sent the received HD video to a PC with a display.
In another LTE test innovation, in parallel with downstreaming data, the SORBAS test UE sent data to the R&S CMW500 via an LTE uplink to allow RF measurements.
