Test and Measurement
5G Toolbox™ provides waveform generation and analysis capabilities.
Generate, impair, and visualize uplink, downlink, and sidelink waveforms, test models, and FRCs programmatically or by using the 5G Waveform Generator app.
Analyze waveform quality and obtain metrics. For example, you can measure error vector magnitude (EVM), adjacent channel leakage ratio (ACLR), and obtain quality metrics based on channel state information reference signals (CSI-RS).
Perform carrier aggregation (CA): generate, aggregate, and demodulate multiple 5G NR carriers.
