FR3 Testbed Embraces Future 6G Research
The Korea Testing & Research Institute (KTR) adopted Anritsu's MT8000A Radio Communication Test Station, which supports the FR3 frequency range, to establish an FR3 evaluation environment alongside its existing 4G and 5G systems. FR3 is a promising candidate frequency range for next-generation 6G mobile systems. System development requires evaluation environments that take standardization and certification requirements into account.
KTR introduced the solution to support research and development as well as certification and standardization verification. Going forward, KTR will promote evaluation of FR3 technologies and technical verification toward 6G standardization, while also exploring future applications of the platform.
By combining the MT8000A with Anritsu’s automated test software, KTR aims to improve the efficiency and sophistication of research, development, and evaluation activities in the FR3 frequency band.
