MIMO Test

As a world leader in test and measurement solutions, Agilent Technologies continues to be at the forefront of emerging markets such as MIMO (Multiple Input, Multiple Output). A challenging antenna technology, MIMO ultimately will improve spectral efficiency (bit/sec/Hz), signal quality and cell coverage. But being an evolving standard, it provides hidden roadblocks and requires a new suite of measurements. Our engineers, experts in test and measurement, are making the new measurements easier for you to analyze and troubleshoot your system. From R&D through integration and manufacturing, Agilent has test equipment to provide insight into these complex signals and allow you to meet your time to market goals. Greater insight. Greater confidence. Accelerate next-generation wireless.
