Qualcomm Technologies has announced ultraSAW technology, a proprietary SAW filter technology for mobile front-ends from 600 MHz to 2.7 GHz. ultraSAW products are beginning production, and Qualcomm expects phones using the technology to be commercially available during the second half of 2020.

Viavi Solutions Inc. launched OneAdvisor, a brand new instrument platform designed to address the evolving requirements of communication service providers, their field technicians and their contractors. As 5G becomes more ubiquitous in 2020 onward, network operators are aggressively scaling and commercializing this technology using large workforces of technicians or contractors to install and activate tens of thousands of cell sites. The first OneAdvisor solution, ONA-800, provides the essential combination of technology coverage, test features, and test process automation to facilitate this aggressive network deployment.

With commercial 5G deployments gathering pace globally, field service teams are facing the challenge of successfully deploying and operating new network infrastructure that has a radically different architecture from previous cellular generations. Rohde & Schwarz has introduced the 5G Site Testing Solution (5G STS) that provides the industry with an integrated package of proven test equipment that combines all the necessary functional, RF and signaling tests for 5G installation and troubleshooting.
