Fourth-generation (4G) wireless relies on Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) technology to deliver on the promises of higher data rates, greater coverage areas, and lower operational costs. However, testing base station and mobile devices that utilize MIMO technology is more complex and critical than ever. Successful testing requires a highly accurate emulated radio channel for testing base station receivers and mobile device receivers.

To reduce deployment problems and protect revenues, Spirent, the global provider of wireless performance testing, have integrated a turnkey 4x4 MIMO configuration into its renowned SR5500 Wireless Channel Emulator. By utilizing Spirent’s MIMO solutions you can maximize the potential of 4G and minimize the risks.
